It was Beta James from Thornwood, bleeding and barely standing, holding an envelope. "Message," he gasped. "From the Collector. He says if Alpha Elara wants her children to live, she'll come alone to meet him at midnight. Neutral ground. No backup. And if she doesn't show..." He swayed, and Kai caught him.

She scanned the monitors out of habit, but the first collector was already there, standing in a blind spot that shouldn’t even exist, defying every camera and sensor, as if reality had simply decided to look away. It was tall, painfully pale, and draped in something that might have been a suit if you ignored how darkness clung to its silhouette, how its eyes seemed to bend the light into spirals that hurt to look at. Nyxara’s blood turned to ice. There were old stories about what happened when the collectors took notice, and none of them ended well.

” Ornais finished showing a picture of the twins when they were still alive. “Interesting” Daniel agreed. He looked up at her apartment building again and then proceeded to follow Ornias down the street to the nearest hotel. On the way, Ornias bumped into a businessman in an expensive suit. As he apologized and helped to steady the man back on his feet, he managed to take the man’s wallet. Ornias was a shapeshifter. While he was annoying,however, having him around certainly had its perks.

Julian lamented. “You have to keep looking for her!…….there has been information that orphans have been missing from orphanages and my best bet is that it’s Blackwood” detective Garrett said. “That’s what we came to inform you today even” Julian said. “I guess we are both up to date” detective Garrett said. “What do we do now?” Fredrick asked. “I am sure he is almost done with refining GB-3, that is why he has been busy using Marcus to collect orphans from orphanages” detective Garrett said.

In the Good Name of Lucia "Mrs. Marylin, Lucia said that there are a lot of broken things in the warehouse. I promised to pick them up today," said an old man who works as a junk collector. His house is not far from the orphanage. Even though it was still early morning, the man was already at the orphanage. Mrs. Marylin was tidying up her plants outside, "Oh yes, I'll call Lucia in a moment," said Mrs. Marylin, leaving the man. He then went inside to the kitchen of the orphanage.

Elara said. "How many?" "A dozen. Maybe more." Ronan's silver light pulsed. "We can take them." "Remember what Clara said. Don't engage." "She's not here." Elara grabbed his arm. "Ronan, if we die here, we can't warn the pack." He hesitated, then nodded. "Fine. We go back." But as they turned to leave, a figure emerged from the cave. He was older than Elara had expected—gray fur, tired eyes, a scar across his muzzle. The Collector. He moved slowly, deliberately, as if he had all the time in the world.

For better or worse. Through the crack in the window, an engine rumbled up the orphanage drive. I dropped my small rucksack to the floor and crept toward the noise. Outside, a sleek, black Mercedes pulled up to the front of the orphanage entrance.

That wasn’t really her problem though, hailey thought as she dug into the . ************ Following the people he was after hadn’t really been an issue for Dmitri. His sense of perception had always been keen and sharp. It was even more so since his transmogrification and it became more heightened.

The Collector of Souls stood tallest among them, cloaked in midnight, holding a long staff topped with a crescent moon that pulsed like a dying heart. I lunged forward. “Let me go back.” The Collector tilted his head. “The bargain is sealed in blood and will. Yours. Hers lives because yours ends.” “No.” My voice cracked through the silence, raw and desperate. “I didn’t agree to this forever. I agreed to take the hit so she wouldn’t die right then. That’s it. That’s all.” A smaller figure leaned forward, female, voice like cracking ice. “You spoke the words. ‘My life for hers. Break the wheel.’ The wheel turns no more if one stays behind.”

I ripped the nearest hunter to me and sank my fangs in him and drank his blood, noticing wolfsbane in the blood and quickly mindlinked Zion about this. A lot of wolfs have been poisoned when they have rippid in their teeth in the hunters and the hunters blood entered their bodys. My magic healed most of them but there were still some that had been poisoned. As I drank from the hunters I noticed a movement in the corner of my eye and looked over just to notice someone I really wanted to meet. Colt.
