Plan Execution… Bridget and Skylar waited until all the teams were in place, then they conjured some fake magic blocking cuffs. They put the cuffs on and handed themselves over to the group of witches. “You ready to do this?” They asked the sisters. “Yeah, let’s get this over with.” Bridget said, as Skylar nodded looking at each other. Thirty minutes later thy were standing at the main entrance of the perimeter barrier“Where have you all been?” Lyle, One of the guards asked. “We need to see Laura.” “We have a surprise for her.” Breezy and Nina replied. “What could you and your small group of losers have for Laura?” Lyle asked. “Just these.” Breezy said, stepping aside to reveal Bridget and Skylar. “You all captured the sisters? How, when you can’t do a simple conjuring spell.” “You mean like this one.” Breezy said conjuring a dagger out of thin air. “Now can you please go get Laura.” Nina said.Lyle looked at one of the witches standing with him and said go get Laura.

Back Home…Josiah woke up in a cell. It took him a minute to figure out where he was and the moment he did, he was ballistic. “You can’t do this to me. I am an Alpha!” He started to shout. “Let me out of here, you insignificant asses.” He went on. After 5 minutes of shouting insults and threats, Felan stood up and walked in front of the cell. “Maybe, I should have let you die.” She said and began to walk away.“So, I didn’t imagine you standing in that pit with me.” He said. “Who else there would have?” She asked. “After everything you have done to Mack, to Skylar, to her daughter, to Mom, and the countless other men and women you have tortured over the years. I am even starting to question why I helped you.”“Because you are nothing like me.” He answered her. “You are good and show concern. I would have let you die if the role had been reversed. I would have let everyone die.” She didn’t know what to say after that so, instead of responding she said “Food will be here soon, and I wou
Sam meets the Goddess…Sam sat on the ground and just looked out over the world in front of her. The view was beautiful, a waterfall in the distance surrounded by a parade of colorful flowers. All different kinds of flowers. The river was surrounded by woods and open fields where everything thrived. The grass was pure green. The trees were full of leaves. She took a deep breath and said. “Goddess, please give us one day of rest. One day of peace. One day of celebration. One day to enjoy the little things.”Suddenly the view changed, and Sam was no longer by the river, but standing by the waterfall at the entrance to a cave. “Come in Sam.” She heard a voice say. Sam didn’t recognize the voice, but it was welcoming, soft and sweet like a cool summer’s breeze. Sam stepped into the cave and followed the voice.The moment she stepped through the threshold, Sam noticed she was in a park. In the center there was a water fountain, surrounded by a garden of the same flowers that surrounded the
THE GODDESS STORY… “I hadn’t been mated long. When our pack was attacked. We were in a war for territory. Territory that belonged to my pack. The young wolves were being held hostage. The pack that attacked us poisoned our water supply with wolfsbane weakening the entire pack. They demanded the deed for our entire land in exchange for the young wolves.”“If my father refused, they were going to kill the young wolves and the omegas. They gave my father two days to decide. My father sent Messengers to neighboring packs to request help and scouts to ensure the young wolves were being cared for and to gather as much intel as possible. The scout learned that the Alpha had plans to kill all of us and keep the young wolves regardless if we gave up our home.”“The messengers returned with no help. The surrounding Alphas wanted no part in our war. They had already made a deal with other Alpha. They agreed to stay out of the fight and in return their lands and pack members would be free from r
A MOMENT OF PEACE…It was a month after the wedding and Ashur and Sam would be coming home from their honeymoon. “Things have settled a little, most of the other packs had gone home.” Mack said to Tanner. “Mason and his pack are leaving after the honeymooners return. My pack will be here until we deal with the darkness. I made a promise to my niece that I wouldn’t leave until I knew she was safe. Plus, the rest of you guys have kind of grown on me.” “Yeah, and we think you guys are tolerable too.” Nezerra said walking up. They all laughed.Most of Skylar’s coven left to join the rest of their coven near Tanner’s daughter’s pack. The twins, the brothers, Skylar, and a few others decided to stick around to help Felan and Keyne learn about their powers and control them. They both had come a long way in a month’s time. It seemed the more they learned the more powers they discovered. Aaliyah’s mate came to join her and meet his stepdaughter.Shaba kept her word and rebuilt the pack territo
THE DARKNESS IS CLOSE…Johnathan left the wolves and set out to do what he came here for in the first place. He was searching for the darkness from the prophecy. He had ideas of where it was stashed and was following up on a few leads. He was also collecting all the darkness he could along the way. What he didn’t know was that for every ounce of darkness he took the same amount of light was finding its way to Felan. Johnathan was headed for the river, not sure of which direction he needed to go once he got there. What he didn’t expect was to find the waterfall cave to hit him smack in the face. There it was the cave he was looking for. From all the research he had done and the information he had gathered, this was the spot he believed he would find the hidden darkness. He could feel the darkness calling him. The pull was strong, and it was leading him further into the cave. He followed the tug and entered the cave. The atmosphere completely changed. Outside of
WAITING…Twenty-four hours later and no change. Johnathan’s people should be arriving any minute. No one had been in, out, or anywhere near the cave. Johnathan felt like he was truly safe and hadn’t been spotted. He still wouldn’t emerge until his people showed. The sun was almost up and still no sign or word from his people.Hours had passed and he had decided to come until his phone vibrated in his pockets. He pulled it out and answered with, “Where are you?” “We were being followed, but we lost them and are taking extra precautions to ensure we are not followed again.” The voice said. “Was it the wolves?” He asked. There was a long pause before the voice said, “No, vampires and we have seen dragons around as well.” “Word of the prophecy has reached them then. I am sure the wolves and witches had a hand in that.”“What do you want us to do?” The asked. “Nothing, just get here as soon as you can. I will be in the cave. Take whatever cautions you need to ensure no one follows.” He ans
LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION… Those that knew exactly what Meryl meant laughed and the rest got told we will explain later. They watched as Bridget placed a white candle in the center of the Atlantic Ocean. “Elementa nos ducunt ad quod quaerimus.” The sisters chanted. The rest of the room watched as the candle lit. The sisters kept chanting, but nothing was happening. The flame was flickering and only started to grow when the twins joined the sisters in there chanting. The smoke from the flame started to cover the map. The more they chanted, the thicker the smoke got. The continued to chant until the candle shot a high flame and then went out. They watched as the smoke begin to thin out except in the places where dark magic was being used. “The darker the smoke the stronger the magic.” Aaliyah was handing out the packets with Johnathan ‘s picture to the teams. “Here is what who we are looking for and what we know about him.” She told the teams. “I don’t think we are going to have to
