Darian's throat felt dry as Reed spoke again. "Who do you think this chick is, whose blood we now need?" Darian looked away, his jaw clenched. How was he supposed to tell Reed it was not a she but a he? When merpeople found their mate, it triggered an Affliction called "Veezhof Rhaeshisaar," which translates to "blood summoning" in English. When a merperson came near their fated mate, their body recognized the bond before their mind did. At first, it would appear subtly, an unexplained pull that grew stronger with each encounter.

"I do see something in it, but barely." "Well, it's there. There's both wolfsbane and silver in the blood. This is true for the three patients I have tested since I got here." "When did you get here?"I asked, recalling the last time I had seen him. It was at one of the meetings when he checked my mother as well as Tyrell.

Something died inside of Meridith at the very sound of it. Meridith mind was in a turmoil. The more she listened to the pain filled sound of Kamara, the more furious she got. She reacted on impulse. Tears overflowed her eyes and she saw this time as an opportunity to get blanketed by Damon. She wrapped her arms around him, burying her face into his chest.

For the past centuries, Soles from either sides hadn't found the Vermilion yet. This Vermilion was the one power that could stop the other. This was the reason as to why the world had still been experiencing two opposing forces; light and dark, good and evil. Because no one had succeeded in finding the power source Vermilion yet. This was the reason why the Vermilion was so important to be found and be kept, especially by the Ibawnons, so as to maintain the balance of the world. For if the Malignobons would have it, nothing but darkness and chaos would surely be spread to the whole world.

Markus said with a shining smile towards Charr, making him puff his chest out. “Me tell you strong make you smart!” Charr replied with a beaming smile and patting his incredibly large chest. “What is an actual meridian? Is it that golden pillar I saw that had cracks through it?” Rex quizzed. “Let me explain it this way, think of a meridian almost like a battery, varied in size between individuals and races, also varies between what type of magic arts you are attuned to, Lizz for example would have a meridian substantially larger than Nessa, yours might be even larger than mine being royal family” Markus shrugged, “the larger the meridian, the more you can use it, but also like battery, once

Castus cuss for not thinking before doing it, he'd intended to show Adir how faithful he is but hadn't thought of secluding some parts of his memories. "Stop it"Adir scream in pain,Castus squint "Stop showing this,I don't want to see it"Adir hold on the window railing tighten,his heart clenching In a way it as never done,the feeling to him is ugly, repungnant and foul,he was incapable of feeling sorry but the emotions from castus could kill him,the heaviness of his heart, oppression of his Spirit like his heart is bleeding plague Adir,in the course of this he heard his friend talk directly through him.

Derek chuckled. “Oh nothing specially other than instead of gunpowder they are filled with mercury.” Patric chuckled as both Andrew and Derek stiffened. It wasn’t very well known but mercury at a high enough concentration renders Merfolk useless. Hard to believe as they eat fish with high levels in it. If it was high enough Derek only had minutes to live before his organs started to shut down and his nervous system started going out of whack.

Seren A boy screaming for his mother while his own hands strangled her. A warrior begging his body to stop as it drove a blade through his brother’s ribs. A woman watching her feet carry her forward, step after step, toward people she once called family. The pain didn’t come in waves, but all at once. It had weight, crushing me. It filled every space inside my skull until I could no longer tell where I ended and they began. Memories that weren’t mine flickered behind my eyes—pack markings, burning homes, the copper taste of blood swallowed against protest. The metallic tang of Meredith’s magic threaded through it all, sharp and rotting, binding them together like barbed wire pulled too tight

Ruby's POV It was like all the words entering my head were turning into mush. None of it was making sense. “You said you need him to make more werewolves. What do you mean by that?” “There’s something in his genes,” Maximillian’s voice grew with excitement. “Something in his blood. One of the numbered weaknesses of werewolves is mercury—which Fae’s blood is rich with. There had been a change in the DNA with the son of Ravenhead and Hargreaves.

“I am sorry.” “I understand. This is my first opportunity to call you, likewise,” she replied. “They are Mer.” “Are you sure?” His attention sharpened. “This is not like them.” But it did make sense, considering the involvement of the river in all the recent strife. All rivers emptied into the sea, and if the zombie virus had reached the Mer... “Fuck.”
