I shrugged it off and went to re-heat the bear stew, making a fire and placing the pot on the steel hook above it. The moment I stood straight was the same time Quillon's tent flap flipped open with haste. I turned my head and frowned at him. Quillon was glaring at me with a blank expression. I almost ignore him but the way his eyes darkened as it watches me made me stop and turn to fully face him. "What's wrong?" He didn't answer but growled. Growled. I couldn't react quickly. Everything happened so fast. Quillon was standing by his tent, then next thing I knew, he was right in front of me.

Bella asked. " 9 to 10 hours, maybe. Just keep watch over them. Phase 1 is complete, and all that is left is Natalie's part. " I said. " I hope that's successful," Bella said. " I hope so too. I muttered. . . . Xavier's P. O. V

Inside, she was sitting alone at a table by a window, picking at a plate of food. The plate in front of her had steak—barely cooked, blood pooling under it. Normally that might’ve turned my stomach, but right now? Didn’t even register. The sight of her, so calm, so normal, made the anger boil over. I didn’t knock. I shoved the door open and marched in. “What’s your game, Nyx?” She didn’t look up. She speared a piece of meat with her fork. It was practically raw, bloody juice pooling on the white plate. “You look displeased,” she said, her voice flat. “For a man who just got a promotion, you’re terrible at gratitude.”

He says to the henchman. I breathe out a breath I've been holding for a while as the henchman drags me out. Once we're in the hallway, I angrily snatch my arm from the henchman's hand and walk away from him throwing countless curses at him. I climb down the staircase down my hall as I go to the kitchen. I need coffee or maybe cold water. Opening the fridge, I grab a bottle of cold water as I close the fridge almost startling myself to find Quill standing by the kitchen doorway eating a bag of chips. I breathe in and sit down on the island stool uncapping the water and throwing my head back to take a gulp.

“The seal on her is broken. That’s what you’re looking at now. Your powers are now yours to control.” The way he phrases it is chilling. “I need food,” I mutter. “I’ve not eaten in days.” “Days?” Quill gives me a worried look. “But you were only gone—” “The cave I was in—Time moves quicker in there. Look, it’s complicated. Can I just get some bread and water? Please.” Lowenstein refuses to move, but Beth hurries inside the hut and brings out her bag, handing me some fresh fruit. I bite into it, and as the juice and meat of the fruit goes inside my stomach, I feel relief filling me.

But as I gestured to the meager food, my teammates rose one by one, finding the will to take another step forward into the darkness that awaited us. Wordlessly, we shuffled over and knelt by the plates, each picking up a spoon to reluctantly dig into the putrid meal. We gathered around the food trays, eating our meager breakfast in silence. Haley pushed the bowl away half-eaten, her tone filled with disgust. "This stew is revolting," she muttered, "How can they expect us to survive on this slop?" Her voice wavered slightly, betraying a growing sense of desperation beneath the anger.

He passed her a tight-lipped smile before taking another plate as he filled it for himself. Violet quietly ate her food and he watched silently. "Why aren't you eating?" Alpha King asked pointedly. "Is it bland?" Hunter asked the girl who looked surprised for a second before she shook her head. "It's not bland," She whispered and Hunter smiled. She has eaten a small portion and seemed fine which means it wasn't poisoned or something. "Well, that's good. I like spicy food," He muttered while taking a spoonful as he chewed on it. A frown settled on his eyebrows when he realized it wasn't as good as last night's and irritation engulfed him.

I shout at him, seeing that Damian isn't close enough. "5... 4... 3... 2..." Hunter counts down into the headset. "1..." Hunter calls out. "EVERYONE NOW!" I scream out as I push the button to disarm all of the bombs. I hear a massive eruption take place in the city. I stand up from my chair and run to the window that looks over towards Stone Enterprises. My heart falters as I see the building fall, sending a massive plummet of debris throughout the surrounding blocks. I freeze in place.

Allyssa's POV. I rush off, eager to make it to the slave quarters, my stomach growls and I take deep breaths to calm myself, pangs of hunger rattle my bones and fatigue seeps into my system, making me drowsy. I need to eat, so I move my legs faster, at least when I get to the slave quarters, I'll have a bite, as measly as it might be, it is still something.

He was a walking ticking time bomb. I already prepared the hacking in advance so sent a little text to Ade and she clicked the right buttons showing the camera to no longer work. I saw Quinn in the bathroom stall and took this as an opportunity and approached him. 'Babes, you're in the wrong toilets. This is the gent unless you want to give me a blow-' I punched him across the face and he went back and he was clearly raged. Good thing that I was even more pissed than him. Every time he attempted to swing his fist in my face, I counteracted it and he bruised him.
