Selene's pov"How did you find me?" I asked weakly. My kind felt a number, and I could hardly move my fingers."It wasn't easy, we had to search through the entire town to get to you. Almost took us the entire day to do so." Olivia replied."What happened, honey?" my father asked, his voice gud and choked with worry. I reached to him and held his hand. "I don't know. It must have been a mistake, but I took the portion, and I found myself in the middle of a highway.""You were lucky. People in Iceland are better drivers than those in the states." Magnus had been quiet since I got in, and I wanted to hear him talk, even if it was just one word."How do you feel now dear?" My father asked."Just a number, but I'm better than I was," I replied. I looked at Magnus, and his eyes caught mine immediately. What was the issue? Why wasn't he talking to me? His silence bothered me, but I did not want it to. The world was in serious trouble, and I had the awful burden of carrying all this weight.
Selene's povgoddess have mercy!" my father cried in fear as he held on for dear life"Selene, stop this madness!" Magnus said frantically as he held me while staring at the wall of thunder and lightning before us.Now, he chooses to talk. I was in no mood to speak, not anymore."We'll tell you what's in the fucking boot just stop this." My father yelled as the car came a foot closer to the wall of charged electricity. Millions of nerve endings and necrotic cells interconnect the brain. A single thought you make is passed on like bolts of electricity through the brain as it processes it in under a second. That was how long I had to call off the lightning storm before us—less than a freaking second."Fucking hell, your child is crazy," Olivia screamed. Everyone breathed relief, and Olivia stepped out of the vehicle and doubled down on her knees, taking heavy breaths."Are you mad? Do you want to kill us?" My father screamed at me. I wasn't trying to kill them. I knew they would talk b
Gabriel's povI have known her for twenty years; this was the first time I knew this. She smiled as the car pulled up into the hangar. I did not know what to expect, and even if I had known, I would not have expected this."Since when did you ow,n such things Olivia?" I asked out of shock."Come on. My mother is the moon Goddess. I can't go poor or whatever you expected of me," she said with a smile and stepped out of the car.I stepped out of the car, too, and looked up at the magnificent piece of engineering. It wasn't even a little aircraft; she had a freakin Boeing 747."How can you afford a 747?" Magnus asked in shock. He knew his planes. "There's no way the animals you hunt are expensive enough to get you this.""It's not a 747," Olivia corrected. It's a dreamlifter, and I didn't buy it. I stole it," she added with a wry smile."But don't talk bad about my trade. Hunting's really profitable.""Uhmmm…" Selene muttered from behind us. I turned to her. She looked like a pale ghost,
Ansari's pov.I sprang from my bed, drenched in cold sweat and fear—Jasper's threat.I looked out the window; it was already dusk.Yes, your people will be killed before the dawn of tomorrow. You might try your best to save them, but you already have a lot on your hands.His exact words, I could try to save them if I wished.I rose to my feet, the pain and the injuries were forgotten, and I tried to make my way to the door, but I was too fucking lightheaded. The door spun before me, and it seemed to be miles away.“What's happening..??” I asked uneasily. I could see the ground rushing up to meet me, but I could do nothing to stop my fall.I fell with a heavy thud. I did not understand why I …mologon venom.But I needed to get up. I needed to find a way out of there so that I could go to my daughter and warn her about what was yet to come.My limbs did not respond to me, and my hands stayed where they lay.Frustration finally reached me, like a mother's embrace after she found a child
Gabriel's pov"Solum thirsty…solum needs water.""You will be drowning in your blood soon enough." Olivia spat. Her words made the little creature shudder, and I felt them in my soul."Do not do this. We need it." I said desperately."What exactly do we need it for?" She asked."For one, Saltos communicates with his army via a kind of mind link, like Mates do. So if Saltos gives a command…""This little shit could relay it to us over here." Olivia gasped and stared at me for a moment."You're a genius." She exclaimed.I smiled and breathed a sigh of relief. "Once we get to Saltos, I'll kill it," she said and dropped the monster down. Until then, you're watching after it. Abd is cleaning up after it." She had already begun to walk toward the place when she stopped and turned to me."Abd, you're feeding it from your rations."I smiled and nodded. She turned back and continued to the plane.After she boarded, I looked down at the goblinGoblin and smiled.It was a shivering fear."Solum
Daruis's pov"Death to the Witch spawn," Saltos commanded, and I felt the monster's heart fill with joy.They proceeded into the portal and rushed into the forests. The wolves all around tried to fight back, but they could not withstand them. They could not fight off the avalanche of destruction that was Saltos. He was riding a horse of death and destruction, and my people died in their thousands."You!!" a voice yelled out in shock. I turned to the monster and looked at him. It was no monster; it was a friend, someone whom I had once known and had called family."Jake," I said in shock. "I could not believe it when they told me when they said so much to me. You who I thought…"He was cut short by a spear to his heart. The wood was exposed from the front of his chest, and blood splattered from his mouth."Goddess have mercy." He groaned before he fell to the ground. Nessa looked back at me with a proud look on her face."Death to the Witch spawn." I tried to smile, but the smile was
Selene's pov"Selene, you must hurry. You don't have much time left. Saltos marches for you home; he tries to kill everyone you love." The soft voice of the Goddess whispered, but I could not see her.I was surrounded by darkness."Wait!!" I called desperately. Where was she?"Wait, come back." But I could already feel her leave.And then… I awoke to the soft splashing of water all around me. It was already late at night, and I did not know where I was. Beautiful leaves danced on trees, and water flowed down a lovely stream. I sat upright, and a migraine shot up my head. My hand went up to my hand and stayed there.How long was I out? It felt like I had been asleep for years. My body felt reborn and healthy, except for the stupid migraine. Darius walked out of the bushes on my right, completely startling the hell out of me."Hey, I'm sorry!" Darius said with his hand up. He smiled at me and extended his right leg. "Can I move now?" He asked."Yeah, of course," I said awkwardly.
Selene's pov(In the R.V., another memory.)"How are you?" Alex asked. I was lying on her twin-sized bed next to her. I should have gone home; I wanted to go home, but I could not bear the empty house. I thought I would find comfort there, but when I walked into her room… I ran over here, over to my best friend. "I don't know. I feel numb." I whispered. I had thought I would cry for hours over my mum, but the tears had dried up, and no matter how hard I wanted them to fall, they stayed dried up. "I know you're hurting over your mom. I could never imagine what it feels like to lose your mother. But that's not what I'm talking about." She turned over on the bed and faced me."What are you talking about then?" I asked, genuinely confused.Alex cleared her throat and looked at me uneasily. "How do you feel now? especially after meeting your father." She asked and watched me curiously.My anger returned swiftly, and bitterness enveloped me like a thin shroud."How could she do that?" I
