ZAIA.

I run towards Atticus and Valerie, my heart pounding violently. “Valerie!”

“She’s alright.” Atticus growls but I can tell he is angry. His voice is tense and trembling with rage.

Even though he’s reassured me, I keep running.

“Shame you survived that attack… don’t worry, this time I’ll end her properly.” Gaultier sneers, making

my eyes flash.

“Fuck you.” Valerie spits.

“If you want to.”

Atticus’s snarl reaches me just as Sebastian catches up to me.

‘Get on!‘ he snarls.

I don’t argue, jumping onto his back as he runs at incredible speed through the trees.

There are dozens of wolves all around and I can’t see Valerie or Atticus, although I can sense their

auras ahead from the midst of all of the wolves.

Sebastian tears through them, throwing, biting and killing them as we pass.

I catch Valerie’s and Atticus’s scent up ahead and my eyes blaze as I leap off Sebastian’s back blasting

Gerard to the ground, my glowing orange power swirling around me like a full–body shield.

“Don’t touch her!” I snarl, looking at Valerie, who is clutching her bloody arm.

“Or what?” Gaultier asks as he turns his cold eyes on me. The similarities to

Sebastian are uncanny, and I hate it.

“Or I will fuck you up,” I reply icily.

Gaultier rushes at me, only for Sebastian to growl threateningly at him as he blocks his path, his aura

surging around him.

“Ah, Sebastian… what a surprise,” Gerard says coldly.

He stands there completely relaxed, with Gaultier’s aura protecting them both.

Sebastian snarls at him. ‘You lied to me!‘ His voice is loud in my head. I can feel- his rage and anger

through the bond. He wants blood and vengeance.

“You betrayed me.” Gerard counters.

‘I fucking wish I did it sooner!‘ Sebastian growls. With him distracting Gerard, I quickly make my way

over to Atticus and Valerie.

“Val!” I whisper, worry rushing through me.

“I’m fine,” she reassures me as she staggers to her feet. Atticus’s shield protects us from the wolves

that surround us.

“Let’s end this once and for all,” I say, looking at her worriedly.

“I’m ok, babe.” She whispers through her earpiece before she looks at me. “I’m ready.”

Atticus nods as the three of us turn as one, even as many wolves circle us and the sound of bullets

from all around us, we do not falter.

Atticus’s shield holds in place and the three of us join our hands together. I feel. the surge of power

burst through me as I look at Gaultier.

“You know this is wrong… why are you even doing this? Look around! All you are doing is killing

innocent people!” I shout, wanting to give him one final chance before we end this.

He hurt Valerie… he hurt and killed so many… is there any compassion or an ounce of humanity in the

murderer before me?

“Innocent? Those who are ready to fight a war are not innocent, nor are they casualties of war! They

are killers!” He snarls at me, his eyes cold and emotionless.

“I guess you don’t seem to look in the mirror often… so is that your wish? Will, you fight the Sublime as

if we are your enemy until the very end?” I ask.

“As if you are? You fucking ARE my enemy!” Gaultier snarls, launching himself at me. His aura swirls

around him, but it’s nothing compared to the combined power of all three of us.

“Let it all go,” I whisper as I glance at the moon for a moment.

Guide your people, goddess…

As one, we raise a powerful shield, one that illuminates the entire sky, blinding all those around us. The

moment he tries to cut through it, I tighten my hand,

making the powerful force field wrap around him.

He’s fighting it, his heart thundering with anger and frustration, but he is not strong enough to take on

the three of us.

+15 BONUS

My gaze flicks to Sebastian as the bullets continue to rain down on us.

“Bastien!” I shout, my heart almost stopping when a bullet barely misses him.. ‘I’m good, Foxie, focus

on yourself.‘ His voice comes and I realise what I did.
