The Alpha King nodded thoughtfully as he cut up his roast duck, then popped a piece into his mouth and spoke with his mouth full. He gestured with his fork as he spoke. “The rogues won’t be a problem,” he said nonchalantly. “As we all know, rogues are unintelligent and easily fooled. We can easily

Enzo After dinner and my brief conversation with my father, I decided to go back to my room for the remainder of the night where I could plan out my escape in peace. I spent some time pacing back and forth in my dark room, wondering how I could get out of this mansion and find someone who could ope

When I came down to the bottom of the steps, I looked both ways down the dark corridors before choosing to go left. This place really was like a maze, and it was entirely unfamiliar to me; I could only hope that I was going in the right direction. Suddenly, a guard rounded a corner and started to c

Enzo The last thing I saw before the portal closed entirely was the image of Selena grabbing my father from behind and holding a knife to his throat.

Nina After we ate, it seemed that the Crescents weren’t too hot on our trail, so we decided to rest. Some of the team was already fast asleep on the couch or the floor, but the others eventually joined them. Enzo and I, however, volunteered to take the first shift keeping watch in case the Crescent

Nina “I guess silver bullets really do work,” James said. “That sure nipped it in the bud, huh?” The room fell into a shocked silence as he spoke. I felt my heart sink and a pit form in my stomach. The logical part of me told me that James was lying and only trying to get under my skin, but there
