Candido squeezed me and pulled me forward into the building through the unlocked back door. She turned around and shrieked at us.“Go away!” She yelled. “I’m so tired—Who are you? What do you want?”“She’s more than drunk,” Candido said. “Something’s wrong with her.”She sneered. “And what is it to you? Shouldn’t you be happy getting a free show?”I sneered at her. “Candido didn’t want you for a reason. No one else does either.”Her eyes flashed and she screeched. “That bitch Hedy is to blame! If she hadn’t gotten involved, everything would have been perfect.”She stumbled. “Candido loved me.”I growled at her. “Candido, never loved you—”“Pandora, stand down,” Candido said, pulling me back.“What would you know, stupid bitch!” Sibyl hissed. “You look so dumb in that stupid mask! I bet you’re hiding your ugly face.”I couldn’t help it. I lunged forward, tearing away from Candido before he could react.“Pandora, no!”Sibyl turned sharply, smashing the bottle of wine in her hand across

I was falling and falling through darkness. Hard surfaces jumped out at me, shoving, pushing me. My head ached as if something was pulling my hair—pulling me along by my hair. Then, it released me. The wind scooped me up and tumbled me around. I opened my eyes to complete darkness and my heart lurched as I slammed into something. I was in that cave again, just falling and tumbling around. I hit several hard walls, unsure of where the next one would come from, I tried to protect myself, but for every time I braced, it came from somewhere else.I didn’t know how long I was tossed around, but then, I was free-falling straight down until I landed in the deep dark waters. I struggled for the surface, but I couldn’t. The currents were too strong just like before. I hurt much more than before, and there was no reason for it. My lungs burned. I wanted to scream. Where was Raven? Wouldn’t she help me, or was she too busy with her threesome to notice I was in the caves again? They slammed me ar

I woke up with the scent of dry earth and rotting leaves in my nose. It felt… all too familiar and all too distant too. I felt like I had been here or somewhere like here before. The sky was dark above me, twinkling with stars. Everything seemed to be spinning and out of focus.Where was I? How did I get here? What happened to me?I sat up, blinking. My head spun. I felt ill and cold. My arms trembled trying to push me into sitting. The world turned dark and seemed to slide this way and that as I tried to focus. Things blurred and grew almost painfully clear around me.What was happening to me?My hand slipped from under, slick with something and sending me back into the pile of leaves I’d woken up in. I turned onto my side with a soft groan and lifted my hand to see what was there. My stomach lurched as the scent of blood, raw and metallic hit my nose. It was… fresh. I hissed as I tried to move my fingers. Pain shot up my arm. I bit back a whimper of pain and tried to relax, exhauste

Whoever that man was, I couldn’t be caught by him again. It didn’t matter how much everything hurt. It didn’t matter that every step sent bolts of agony through me. I just needed to get away. I couldn’t go back into the caves. He’d find me. He’d take me, and then there would be no way out. I knew this. I couldn’t say how I knew it, but I knew it.There was light ahead like moonlight streaming through the trees. The people who were running ahead of me seemed to slow down as they reached the outside and looked around. They started cutting through the trees.“Keep going!” Francia yelled from behind us. “We’ll lose it in the trees.”My heart lightened as I heard the stroke of thunder. It rumbled and shook the cave as I grew closer. Lightning streaked across the sky, and the rain fell in thick, heavy sheets. I ran into the rain, and a flash of memory went through my mind. For a moment, I was running towards a paved highway. My heart trembled as I looked around waiting for the glint of ligh

I watched him continue drinking.“And who are you to teach me a lesson about anything?” I growled, my eyes burning. “You’re just a vampire! This is werewolf territory—Candido’s territory!”His lips didn’t even twitch, but someone nearby snickered. Then, there was laughter that filled the hall, mocking.“Stop laughing,” I growled. “Stop laughing at me!”“Are you not meant to laugh at something funny?” He asked and ducked his head. His eyes brightened. “Oh, look. It is nearly time to be done with this.”He stood and addressed the hall. “So sorry to take the entertainment for the night early, but my patience has worn thin.”The woman who had threatened me with a sword glared down at me. “There is nothing amusing about her… Lady Hedwig deserved better.”He placed an arm on her shoulder. “As we all know, but we must work with the hand we have been dealt.” He chuckled. “We all know how fickle our Goddess is.”“Willful,” someone said.“She would adore such blasphemy,” he said, a bit of humor
