Chapter 161

DariusThe Ninth Circle was worse than it was in my dream. The obsidian pillars here were larger, etched with runes that pulsed with a slow, rhythmic violet light: the heartbeat of the digestive system Elena had described. The ground was no longer glass; it was a grey, ash-like substance that felt like bone-dust beneath my boots. This felt too real, like it was physical.I walked past the arch. In my head was Luca’s voice screaming at me now, a frantic warning of the creatures who guarded this final layer. I saw them emerging from the fog. Four of them. They looked like oversized wolves, but their skin was made of smoke and their eyes were the same bruised purple as the sky. They moved with a grace, circling me as I approached the central monolith."The Alpha is ours," they whispered, the sound a thousand overlapping voices. I didn't stop walking or even pause to draw my knife."He isn't yours," I said firmly, "He is mine. And I’ve already killed the one who sent him here."The first

163Darius"Darius," Kael whispered, his voice vibrating directly into my mind, bypassing the air entirely. "You have to understand... this isn't my body you’re carrying. It’s my soul."I tightened my grip on the shimmering, golden form of the man I loved. The sediments of the energy I had stolen to get here hummed, the rest had been used to break the chains "I know. Elena’s memories... they showed me the difference. But a soul without a home is just a ghost, Kael. I’m bringing the tenant back to the house."He let out a weak, melodic chuckle that sounded like silver bells. "Always the smart one. Even in hell." We reached the final threshold, where the violet haze of the void met the pine-scented darkness of what I called home. Kael stopped, his form flickering as the physical laws of our world began to take hold. "I can't cross this part with you, not like this. I’ll be in the morgue, Darius. Waiting in the cold. Don't be late, I need your sexy body to keep me warm.”“Are souls allow

Chapter 163

DariusThere was something in the air that morning. I don’t know what it was but it was something. I could hear the sounds of the people scrambling to put things in order. I could hear the joy from the way their voices were. I could even see the smiles on their faces from the balcony, but there was sickening feeling inside of me that this wasn’t over. It felt like something wasn’t right and I couldn’t put my finger on it. I sighed as I peeled away from the balcony into the room where my suit was. There was a soft knock on the door and I forced the fear into the back of my mind. I didn’t want to be a harbinger of bad news today, everyone was happy.Kael was back, I was getting married to my mate, the old tradition was abolished, things were turning around for good, there was no way I could be a Debby downer.“Hey,” Aveline said from her point by the door.“Hi,” I mimicked her happiness, but apparently, she saw through that.“What’s wrong?” she asked. “Nothing is wrong,” I said, forcin

Chapter 164

DariusThe whistling. The sound of the whistling bounced through the space and engulfed my entire frame. My skin rippled with goosebumps as I stood frozen once more. I had been to hell and back, I had survived a lot of things, but this one? This one was new. I was tired, it felt like the one time the sun had pierced through the gloomy clouds to engulf me, something even more drastic came.I inhaled, willing my heart to stand still and stop racing. That stupid whistling unraveled the peace I was trying to achieve. I inhaled deeply and exhaled, snapping my eyes to stare at the darkness.“Who the fuck is there? Who are you!? Show yourself!” I commanded into the darkness and the whistling stopped at once. Next came the creaks, the steady sound of wood buckling under pressure, the steady rocking chair that moved forward and backward.Enough was enough. Today was the fucking day I was supposed to get married to the one person I loved in the entire world. The one who made me feel peace and s

Chapter 165

KaelSeeing the light flicker back into his eyes made it feel like my heart started all over again. I inhaled the largest bout of air I had ever taken in my life before I rushed to his bedside and grabbed his distraught frame. He was staring around the room frantically; his heart monitor had spiked again and I could tell that he was going into full panic mood.“Darius, Darius, I’m here,” I said in what I thought would be a soothing voice. I needed to be the anchor that would tether him in the storm. The doctors said he had severe panic attacks that had caused him to faint. It was strange because I had never known that he had such spells and I had done complete research on him even before I brought him to the pack.“Kael? What’s happening? Where am I?” he asked, grabbing my fingers tightly like a baby would do when they felt safe or scared. It made my heart flutter that even in his dazed state, he still considered me worthy enough to be that anchor to the ground.“You’re in the hospita

Chapter 166

KaelI marched toward the pack house with one thought in mind…well, there were many thoughts and they were eating away at me. Why did Luca know about that symbol that I didn’t even remember? Did he somehow have a hand in my mother’s death? The thoughts were spinning and there were little to no answers coming from the numerous thoughts in my head. The first place I needed to start from was understanding what that symbol meant.For Luca to have shown it to Darius, it was a key in identifying who that man was. I marched through the halls to my study. I combed through the books searching for the book of the symbols, something that would at least carry the meaning. I peeled the book from the shelf and flipped through the many pages, scanning from top to bottom for any of the symbols that had a likeness with that image, but there was nothing.The pages on the right were wearing thin from constant flipping, there was nothing here. As I fingered the edge of the last page, my heart raced in my

Chapter 167

Darius“Kael! Kael!” I called after him but he walked out of the room and slammed the door as he left. The beeping continued loudly, severing the thoughts that were trying too string together. I needed to be with him, at least, I needed to follow him to ensure that he was safe. Also, I needed to know for myself if this thing was real, if the symbol meant anything. From the look in his eyes after I had shown him, it meant something and it had triggered some memories that I wanted to know. We were married, we were one, he had to share these things with me.I flung my legs off the bed, “Kael, please where are you?” I asked through the mind like. He sighed, “I’m sorry, my love, this is something I have to do alone.” He responded before severing the link. I tried him again and it felt like I was hitting a brick wall, it was a complete dead-end.“Fuck!” I yelled as I pushed off the bed and wobbled a little. I stretched my hand and grabbed the IV stand to steady my head that was spinning. I

Chapter 168

DariusWe arrived at the house but the conversation I had with Drew was still bubbling in my head. Dream walkers? I had vaguely heard of them but I never thought they were real or even existed. I thought it was some fable or some thing they told stubborn kids in order to guard their thoughts.This was worse than walking into hell to extract a soul, this was something else.“You have nothing to fear, right? If you can breach the gates of hell, then you can handle a couple of living witches,” Drew smiled, it felt like he was trying to pacify me, to console me. I could see it in his eyes that he was afraid, and a little of his fear was getting to me.I walked through the halls, trying to push the thoughts to the back of my mind. I needed to find where Kael was, everything would make sense if I could see him. I pushed his office door and my eyes caught the book that was on his table. The lamp shone off it creating this effect like the book was ethereal.I squinted as I walked toward it. I

Chapter 169

Kael“Finally,” I whispered as I pulled out the right book from the shelf after the endless search. It was coated in thick dust and cobwebs had made the spines its habitat. When was the last time anyone was down here? There were a lot of books I had suddenly stopped seeing and I thought maybe I hadn’t even seen them at all, but they were all down here. I flipped the pages. I was combing through the pages when the gate groaned once more. I peeled out of the shelves quickly.“Darius? What the fuck are you…how the hell did you even find me?” I slammed the book down and marched out to meet him.“You left me in the hospital without saying anything and you expect me to sit and wait for you? I knew something was happening and if you didn’t want to tell me, I wasn’t going to find out by myself.”“And you found out?”“I’m here, aren’t I?”“How did you get Margaret to show you this place?” I sighed.“There are a lot of perks that comes with these powers I got,” he said and wriggled his fingers

Chapter 170

DariusThe car drive was silent save for the recurrent flashes of lightning and the echoes of thunder. It was going to be a stormy night. I knew I was the major cause of the silence. We had dropped of Drew a few minutes ago and the ride ever since had been awkward with Kael. It felt like there were things to say but we couldn’t say them and it drove me nuts. I, for one, wanted to tell him about what I had seen, the way it felt like something was watching us from the corner of the room. It felt eerie, almost like that figure in the dark in my trance.“You’re awfully quiet,” Kael said to break the ice. I sighed and shook my head, “I’m just tired,” I lied. Well, it wasn’t fully a lie, I was tired, but that wasn’t the reason I was quiet. The car spilled into the driveway and he pulled it into a halt, leaving the engine running.“About what happened in the hospital,” he started, “I’m really sorry, okay? I’m sorry I stormed off and didn’t tell you where I was going, but I’m not sorry that I
