I looked up and almost cried as Candido came staggering down the hall. He looked hazy, clutching his shoulder. His arm hung uselessly at his side and unmoving. He seemed to be wearing a glove on that hand but not the other. It was weird.“Candido!” I cried, my eyes tearing up. “Finally, I—”I went quiet as he froze in his tracks, staring at me with narrowed eyes and suspicion. His eyes darted over me, but it didn’t feel like he was looking for injuries. It looked like he was trying to figure out if I was real or not. He leaned against the wall, but he got no closer.Then, his eyes got darker. “Who are you, and where is Hedy?”I flinched at his tone and sniffled. “What are you talking about? It’s me—”“Don’t lie to me!” Candido yelled. “You aren’t Hedy. I know what she smells like. You’re not her. Where is she?”I stumbled towards

Again, he seemed oddly untouched by the falling water. Meanwhile, everyone else seemed to be getting soaked. Candido shivered as his clothes got wet and the sprinkler water started to wash away the blood.“It would seem that your crude defenses have finally failed,” he hissed. “Give me the Triskele, Vanessa. Now!”“No!” She yelled. “I’d rather die.”“Allow me to help you with that!” He hissed.“No!” I yelled, jumping, and trying to protect her, but there was no bolt of light. The guns exploded in the hands of the operatives, and Vanessa jerked forward. She screamed and flailed through the air. I tried to stop her, but I was swatted aside by a force and into the wall. I hit my head and the world blurred for a second. I turned over and slumped back against the wall as she stopped flying just in front of him.The vampire started patting her down. She tried to fight, but she

I couldn’t say how long it had been since I had passed out. My mouth tasted terrible, like bile and blood. I struggled to breathe in the cold air and shivered. The world spun again and I landed hard on my front on the hard cold ground. I tried to curl up then a light drifted over me. I looked towards it and squinted into the brightness of the white-blue light.“Even children know better than to look into a light source,” Ian said with a clipped tone. The light shifted aside, illuminating him. “Honestly, you prove yourself to be dumber and dumber every time I see youHe was wearing something different. It looked expensive and old-world-like. It was nothing like the neat suits Candido wore. His cuffs were trimmed with silver and gold. There were sun and moon motifs in the tile behind him and between us was a line of sturdy black poles that looked like the door of a cell.“You…” A cold air drifted in as my breath turned to

Time passed in the dark. Sometimes I heard noises, but mostly it was just my own breathing, the beat of my heart and the scuffle of my body against the ground as I tried to turn. I drifted in and out of hazy dreams that made no sense no matter how hard I tried to make them make sense.Fear filled me. The cold was making me sink back into memories I never wanted to relive. I drifted back into Wolf Fang for a while, then that cold night on the highway, but there were no cars coming in my dreams.“Candido,” I whispered to the dark. “Where are you?”“Hey,” Messiah’s came through the bars. I opened my eyes, blinking into the light and trying not to move.How many days had it been since Ian had come? I didn’t know. Messiah leaned on the bars as he plopped down on the floor.“You look terrible.”“Where is Candido?” I asked.Messiah shrugged. “Not my jurisdiction. I don’t track down missing daddies.”“Missing…”“Well, he hasn’t show up on the broadcast,” he said pulling out his phone and lean

For long bouts, I beat at the metal of the frame and on the stone, wall holding it. I screamed and yelled until my voice died, until I could barely hold myself up from how tired I was, but I didn’t stop until the darkness fell again and tossed me around.As I was catching my breath and trying to fight back my exhaustion, the light began to glow outside the cell again. It was weak, like a small candle, but it gave me something to see by. My hands were bruised and bloody. I didn’t even understand how I was still conscious, but I gripped my hands tightly.I had to get out of here.I had to know.I had to get to Candido and make sure that we would be together. If this was just a trick, I was going to do everything I could to make sure that it never ended. The Moon Goddess might be punishing me for being greedy and selfish, but that was fine. I was going to be greedy and selfish and spoiled if I had to. I had already had to watch Candido almost marry Sibyl, I wasn’t going to let that happe
