William I couldn't believe my eyes. It was as if we had been gone for ages. I checked my phone for cell service. I was glad to see that it was still on. " I am going to check our children in the dome," Ellis said, sounding tired. I nodded and placed a call to Alex. His phone rang, but he did not pick up. After two attempts. I called Sam, and she answered on the first ring. " William, is it you?' She asked. " Yes, Sam," I said, and she began to cry. " Where did you go? We came, and the estate was gone." She said, crying. " Five months have passed since the incident." She said, and I was in shock. " Where are you?" I asked her, and she cried. " Hiding," She said, and I was shocked. " Why? Where is Alex?" I asked, and she began to cry. I had a foreboding that something bad had happened to him. He was always trying to prove himself. I just hoped he didn't try to be a hero and get himself killed in the process. "William, I need your help," She cried, and I tried to make her calm d

Ellis I could not believe all that had happened within the few minutes we were in the in-between. To everyone we had been gone for months, to us, we left a few minutes ago. I blamed myself bitterly. I arrived at the Dome, and it looked more like a refugee camp than a home. I had to work on it a bit. I created real lakes and took more buildings there so people won't live in tents. I did not like the fact that there were strangers there though. I wasn't happy with what Alex and Sam did, so I separated my family and people from the people they brought there. I had to separate them. And put a barrier between my children's guest house and field from the others. Only the people that I brought in could cross the barrier, people that were brought in using the rings could not enter, and I left it that way, making an exception only for Phelix Wildbreed because of Michelle. I thought I would find Alex there, but he wasn't, and I wondered where he was. I tried to feel for him in the dome, but his

  Ellis  I did not know what to do about the Sam and Alex situation. If Apophis' vessel was Alex, then whose body was Luna riding? I was very worried because being in the dark wasn't a good thing. I did not know where they would strike from.  I had expanded the dome and made it more homely for the people there. Luna Michelle and Alpha Phelix were distraught and kept praying about their son. I had to quiet their prayers a couple of times. It was weird that these people did not get the memo that the gods were on leave. Every time they prayed, they threw me off guard completely.  I knew I needed to move quickly. Searching through the memories and knowledge of all three gods, I found nothing that told me how to find Lun

Ellis I remained hopeful that all this would come to an end, but as things were, the dark side seemed to be winning. The fake moon was becoming a serious issue for me because I felt a mad aura radiating from it. The erratic behaviour of people was caused by the energy the moon radiated. The wolves, on the other hand, we're being controlled by Apophis. If Alex was his host, then who was Luna's host? I hated my new job. Being a god sucked, and I wished I could resign after all this, but I knew I wouldn't be able to do so. Helio was very clear on the consequences of taking his essence, and ascension was inevitable. I would have to leave Derek, the twins and William behind. I sat alone in one of the rooms of the dome and wept. The whole thing was overwhelming, and there was no one to lean on. As much as William was supporting me, it wasn't enough. At the end of the day, I was just a human that was given the responsibility of a god. I was prone to mistakes, missteps and miscalculations, an

Ellis William and I returned to the real world feeling relaxed and renewed. I kept my encounter with the fates personal and, also the fact that she had mentioned Selen and Aries. I did not know when we would meet them, but it better be soon because we were running out of time, and things were already ugly for all of us. I Linked the mages to bring the ring, and Melena said Audrey would bring it. I sat on the couch in William's arms. By now, we kept the curtains closed because there was no sunlight to let in or moonlight to admire, but it was just death and darkness out there. If we ever survived this, I would thank my stars. When my father brought me to the estate, I never knew what life had in store for me. I did not even know about the supernatural world then. My mother told me a lot about them, but I believed they were just stories and unreal and everything was so physical, but now, my perception was different. I had evolved beyond my imagination. From a powerless human that had
