Beyond the grave and funeral pyre lay a land of shadow and eternal gloom, the Underworld. Dead souls taken by the messenger of the gods, Hermes, were brought down through gloomy caverns and long winding underground paths until they came to the five rivers. Charon, the ferryman, waited across the black shore of Styx by the Gates of Hades. The three-headed hound, Cerberus, who had an appetite for live flesh, would attack anyone but spirits. There lived the dead - heroes and cowards, shepherds, priests, and minstrels. They wandered back and forth aimlessly, waiting for their turn to be ferried across.

Mutters erupt throughout the crowd upon hearing her statement and she stands tall waiting for the downpour of questions. “Are you certain he can take down the alpha?” A man in the crowd asks with a stoic expression. “He is the King of the underworld for a reason, Sampson,” Hecate says robing a cloak of seriousness. “How will he take on the Tribrid and his hybrid mate?” A woman asks with doubt prominent on her features. “In case you’ve forgotten Angeline, we are talking about an immortal being who is in charge of dead souls from all two realms, the supernatural and the human realm. I’m sure he is more than capable,” Hecate says stressing on his characteristics.

"It's because I was granted immortality which allows me to visit earth, and I make sure keep myself updated. Oh, and those who were given immortality can either stay at Elysium or roam the world freely." I nodded along, trying to look as if I understood what he talked about. "One more thing Will, what is Elysium." He stopped walking to pat my head. "It keeps slipping my mind that you are a mortal. So listen carefully cute psychopath." "There are five fields which make up the Underworld like the slices of a pizza. The river Phlegethon leads to Tartarus, where people receive punishment for their sins." He held up a finger in count. "The second is the Asphodel Meadows, a place for indifferent s

Anessa nods in agreement which was surprising since she seemed to dislike Haer. Haer turns to me. The Big creature stares down at me. "You are different. I know a demon when I see one." I shake my head. "No. I'm a hybrid. A Vampire and a Witch." She seems taken aback. "The Dark Empress." She surprised me by bowing. "You're the Mate of my master." I was lost. "If you mean Xavier then Yes. I am His Mate." Haer stands upright. "Please take a seat." She says gesturing to the Lshape couch. I watch as she changes into human form. Revealing a beautiful woman with long brown hair.

I jumped the high stone wall and sprinted into the dark woods, pushing my body faster than any normal wolf could move as I headed toward the border of the Gray Zone where the trees grew crooked and the air always smelled like old smoke. I ran for hours until my lungs were burning and the sun was starting to come up over the jagged peaks of the mountains, and I eventually reached the entrance to the cave where the witch Hecate made her home. The entrance was covered in thick vines that felt like they were moving as I brushed past them, and the inside of the cavern was filled with the glow of hundreds of small candles that were floating in the air without any support. Hecate was sitting by a l

she explained. “Still confused here,” Hades admitted. We were on the same page. She sighed, sitting up a little. “I think the name Ava is a combination of my two names, Autumn and Valentia, but I don’t know who gave me those names. I think my full name is Autumn Valentia Cross, but I go by Ava Hunt.” None of us had expected that response, and it had me even more curious about her past. “See? You think I’m insane.”

The plan was that Brynn’s group would follow us but eventually break off when we got to the junction that would lead us to where we needed to be and them to the back room where Hecate would be caged. Thank the goddess for Ziyah’s simulation because it helped us prepare more than anything else could have. That also included which areas were inaccessible without Precoza blood. These hidden stone passageways had blockades in place that only opened with it. The backway to the room where Hecate would be would also require it, which was why Brynn had a vial of that liquid key in her possession. ‘Remember that if you come across any vampires who have a crescent moon with a dot drawn somewhere on th

"I won't let them harm us." Aunt Cleo's voice sliced through the air like a warning bell, her words laced with urgency and gravity. "Aqua, you need to grasp the true threat of the coven. They're not just ordinary casters. Each possesses unique abilities, ranging from unnaturally swift regeneration and inhuman strength to the sinister power to manipulate creatures and even people, turning them into spies. Some even boast of an unnerving form of immortality, extending their lives far beyond the natural order. And worst of all, they have the terrifying capability to absorb the powers of other casters."

She put on some light makeup, then covered her neck that has some hickies that Hecate gave her. She put on her white heels and Hecate wore her black stiletto. The two of them got out of her room, then walked toward her father's office. As they walk hand in hand, Hecate is sweating bullets because she's gonna meet the king of Greece also Hestia's father. Hestia squeezed Hecate's hand to reassure her. After a few minutes, they arrived outside his office, and Hecate is becoming more nervous, good thing that Hestia is there to ground her.
