What do these symbols mean?” Sofia’s grin softened into something more thoughtful as they stepped closer, their boots clicking softly against the polished floor. “That,” Sofia gestured to the left banner, “is The Board’s insignia. The hexagram and the ankh together—they’re a pretty big deal. Light and dark, good and evil. It’s all about balance, about how those opposites are tied together in the grand scheme of things.

It was like I’d picked up a live wire. I felt burning along my forearm, and hers began to glow in sync with mine. After a quick flash, the burning pain and the light were gone.

But it’s not this that has our attention; it is the fact that over the Five Alphas symbol, someone drew a large Omega symbol in Volkov wolf blood. This might mean nothing to others, but those of lycanthrope blood know that the Omega symbol for the Greek God Ares implies war.

If we can unlock the meaning behind this symbol, we may gain access to the most profound memories he carries.] With newfound determination, we immersed ourselves in deciphering the symbol.

I looked up at Aaron and he pointed to the square. “From what I have read there is some sort of talk, or writing I guess, about a coronation,” he said.

“Orchids represent love, strength and courage.” I move her hand lower, following the path of the twisted vines over her ribs, past her navel and down to her stomach. “The lotus symbolises spiritual enlightenment, purity, and fertility.

Turning my hand to face his I pushed mine to his and instantly looked up into his eyes, “What does it mean?” grinning slightly Groban’s eyes locked on mine, “It’s a symbol that means you belong to me,” thinking it over I bit my bottom lip, “Is it a brothers symbol?” furrowing his brow he shook his head, “No, it’s just me, I was branded with it when I was still very small,” finding this strange I had to ask, “By whom?” smirking he shook his head,
