Third Person POV

The darkness that consumed Rachel fed off the fear that Lila was feeling. She tried her best to hide it,

but even Rachel knew that Lila’s fear was evident. The color had completely drained from her perfect

features and as much as she tried to blink them away, Rachel could see the moisture in her eyes.

She wanted to cry.

“It’s been you this whole time…” Lila breathed, still trying to wrap her head around the facts.

Rachel didn’t have to confirm, Lila already knew the truth. Her intuition was telling her the truth. As

much as Rachel wanted to go to her friend and comfort her, the darkness wouldn’t allow her. She was

consumed by it. She felt all sorts of anger and hopelessness. She gave into the darkness long ago;

even before it’s been conjured. She was an easy target for it to take as a vessel. She wasn’t surprised.

“Please say something…” Lila whispered. Rachel could hear the desperation in her voice.

“What is there for me to say?” Rachel asked, her voice emotionless and dry. It made Lila wince; she

had never heard Rachel sound this way before and she didn’t like it.

“I want you to tell me it’s not true… that you didn’t kill those people. That you didn’t kill Scott.”

“I didn’t kill Scott,” Rachel quipped. “But I would have if I could. I only framed him. I made him believe

he was the one who killed those people.”

A stray tear escaped from Lila’s eye as she stared at Rachel.

“You were the one who sent him to jail…” Lila said h oar sely. “Which means you were the one who

killed him.”

Her voice had gone dry and bitter by the end of that sentence. Rachel couldn’t argue or deny those

facts, so she remained quiet.

Lila was so wrapped up in her own thoughts, trying to process all that’s been exposed to her, replaying

this past week in her mind, trying to figure out how she didn’t see what was right in front of her. She

didn’t even notice the door of the bedroom had opened and Raymond, Rachel’s father, was standing

behind her.

He was staring directly at the back of her head; his eyes trailing down her narrow back and across the

nape of her neck. He held the syringe tightly in his grip as a glimmer of humor spread across his thin

lips.

Rachel hadn’t meant to give him this idea, but she did. It was right after he tried to give her the syringe,

hours before the banquet.

“Lila is smart, she will be able to see through me a mile away. I won’t be able to stick her with that

thing,” Rachel said, refusing to take the syringe.

This angered Raymond, but he had to agree with his daughter. He furiously paced back and forth,

knowing that both of their lives were at stake.

But then he paused, and a smile snaked his lips. He looked at Rachel who was pale as a ghost and

feeling sick to her stomach.

“Then you won’t be the one to inject her with this,” he said, holding up the syringe. “You will be the

distraction….and I will inject her.”

Rachel was brought back to the present moment when Lila let out a small s ob.

“Rachel… whatever is going on… let me help you,” she pleaded..

But Rachel knew there was no helping her right now.

She closed her eyes and looked away. Just as Lila was about to say something else, Raymond

stabbed her as hard as she could in the neck with the syringe.

At first, Lila seemed to be consumed by shock. Her eyes grew large and round as she tried to process

what had just happened. Then a gasp escaped her lips and her eyes flickered to Rachel.

Lila reached up to touch the syringe in her neck and at first, Rachel didn’t think the wolf’s bane was

going to work. Maybe she was too strong of a Volana for it to take effect. Even her father began to look

nervous.

Lila opened her mouth to speak, but no words came out. And then, her body began to quiver

uncontrollably, and her eyes rolled to the back of her head, shocking Rachel to the core.

Had they killed her?

The darkness was going to be pis sed and probably kill them too. Not that it mattered anymore; Rachel

didn’t deserve to live after everything she had done. Her thoughts might be her own, but her actions

and words certainly aren’t. It’s like she’s standing on the outside, watching herself do these horrific

things and she can’t do anything about it.

Lila fell to her knees; her eyes fluttered shut and then she fell to the ground.

Raymond looked relieved and let out a sigh.

“Is she alive?” Rachel asked, her voice sounding unfamiliar and raw,

Raymond bent beside her to feel her pulse on the side of her neck and after a moment, he nodded.

“Her pulse is faint, but she’s alive.”

Before Rachel could say anything, she was stopped when the voice began to speak.

“You have done well,” the voice said. It took a minute for Rachel to realize that she was speaking out

loud so Raymond could hear her as well.

Ray tensed and stared at Rachel, confused. But Rachel couldn’t speak to explain what was happening.

The darkness wouldn’t allow her to speak or move,

“We will handle the Volana from here,” the voice continued.

Soon, darkness reined in through the cr acks of the window, pooling in like a rapid river. It swirled

around. the floor and filled the room with its dark essence. It felt cold and gave Rachel a chill down her

spine; she would have shivered if she could. But she couldn’t move a mussel.

Telling from her father, he couldn’t either.

The room was filled with dark smoke, but it didn’t smell or feel like smoke. It was just there, lingering

around the room until it grew thicker and darker. Rachel had to strain herself to see what was

happening, but that wasn’t good enough. She didn’t know what she was seeing. It almost looked like

the darkness was- swallowing Lila.

It didn’t take long for the darkness to be covering her completely and Rachel couldn’t see her friend at

all.

Then, the darkness swirled around the room a final time before slithering its way to the window once

again. Just as it came in, it used its cr acks to disperse from the room. Rachel looked down at the place

Lila once was, but she was no longer there.

Rachel and her father were left alone, staring at one another in disbelief. Then, her father was bold

enough to speak first.

“What about my end of the deal?” Raymond asked, staring at Rachel. He knew the darkness was still

inside of her and whoever was controlling it was listening. “You promised that I’d get power once this is

over. I want to use the vessel you create to get that power.”

Rachel let out a lowly laugh, but it wasn’t her. It was the voice.

“Silly bear,” she spat. “Did you honestly think I was going to let you walk away with zero repercussions?

You know far too much.”

“What?” He seethed. “We had a deal, witch. I spy on your Volana, and you get me power. I used my

own. flesh and blood to fulfill that task.”

It was like a slap in Rachel’s face; she knew her father wasn’t genuine when he wanted to spend time

with her. But part of her was still in denial about it. She wanted to believe that maybe he did care about

her after all and that he was truly sorry for how he treated her.

“And you have done well, but I can’t possibly allow you to walk around with all the knowledge that you

have,” the voice said, chuckling.

“Then erase them,” he said through his teeth. “You have the power to do that.”

“I do…” it said simply. “But my little friends are so very hungry and before they depart from your lovely

daughter, they need to feed.”

“What?” Raymond asked, sta ggering backward, “You are crazy. Why me? Why not kill her?!”

The voice didn’t respond at first; Rachel was oddly curious about the answer as well. Why won’t it kill

her? Or maybe it still will. A sickening feeling formed in the pit of her stomach.

“I like her,” the voice finally answered. “She had done far too much to deserve death. Plus, she doesn’t

know much of anything. Nothing that can expose us. As for you… well… we don’t like you as much.

You are a failed spy. You could hardly even get close to her.”

“I was the one who gave her the wolf’s bane, knocking her out” Ray argued, furiously.

“You couldn’t have done it without Rachel,” the voice hissed. “Also, didn’t you also abuse your daughter

throughout her entire childhood? You took her virtue. You drove her to drugs and alcohol and forced

her into that wretched facility. You are hardly worth a life.”

Rachel was surprised that the voice knew this information, but she supposed it’s been living in her

brain

for weeks, so it made sense that it would know things about her. It sounded like the voice was angry at

Raymond on Rachel’s behalf.

Raymond was shivering, unable to move. She wondered why he wouldn’t turn and run; it’s not like the

darkness was inside of him and making him stay still like it was doing to her. The only darkness inside

of Raymond was his own.

“Rachel darling, my little friends are hungry, and I need them to be at full strength when they return to

me. They will be leaving you shortly and you will be free of your duties. You have done well and as your

reward, you get to keep your life,” the voice said, only to her this time.

Rachel was relieved, but her heart was so heavy, and her brain was so confused. She had done such.

horrible things; she was never going to recover from this. She knew this; death doesn’t seem so bad.

“You will keep the unbearable truths of what you had done,” the voice confirmed. “It might in fact be a

punishment worth than death.”

Rachel flinched at those words.

“But before my friends leave you, we ask that you perform one last task.”

“What is it?” Rachel asked in a quivering tone, finally able to speak again.

After a beat of silence, the voice answered, “Kill him.”

Downstairs in the living room where the guests mingled and laughed, their conversations ceased to

exist as Raymond’s tormented screams sounded throughout the entire packhouse. At first, nobody

knew what they were listening to but then it was clear that someone upstairs was in grave danger and

crying out for help.

Alpha B astien was the first to jump into action; he was closely followed by Beta Ethan and then Alpha

Jonathan.

Luna Selene wasn’t far behind as well, despite knowing she should stay with the others. But her

daughter was upstairs, and he needed to see that she was okay.

Ba stien followed the sounds of the gargled screams and then the screaming stopped. But he knew

exactly where it was coming from. He ran to the room at the end of the long hallway and barged inside.

He paused, frozen to the core, when he saw Rachel kneeling over her father’s body, covered head to

toe in his blood.

“I…. I…. I didn’t mean to kill him…”
