Chapter 0585
"Sammie." Amy mutters from behind me
*Sammie? Sammie is long dead you stupid little cow." Thalia snorts, "Cooper murdered her the first chance he got after he killed his father. We can't have no sudden surprises running around can we."
Cooper was supposed to kill Samara? He took her abilities telling me it was to stop her from becoming a monster. Had he just been hiding her from Thalia? Somehow, in all the shit he pulled, he tried to keep her safe. He still deserved what he got.
"My Sammie!" Amy cries out from behind us.
"Dead, you idiot!" Thalia screeches. "And soon, Neah will join her." She had no idea about Neah's children. And we are going to keep it that way.
She rolls the ball of fire around in her hand, playing with it, trying to taunt us.
'Ask her where Serkan is.' Xavi mutters
"Where is Serkan? Who is the man pretending to be him?"
"Her father."
*Not my father!" Amy screeches. "Not my father."
Thalia rolls her eyes, and I finally get what Brax means when he talks about how souls change when people lie. I couldn't see Thalia's soul but the words sounded different to my ears.
*The real Serkan is dead, isn't he?" It would explain why Dane said Neah could find no link to him.
"Of course he is alive." She smiles at us. "And he has gone to do what Silas could not." I didn't believe it.
*Serkan is dead. The man that is pretending to be him is not a Kitson."
There is a flash of anger in her eyes.
"I hear your lies, Thalia."
"What are you?" She demands
*Just a Wolf,* I mutter.
She launches the fireball at the thick cloud that separates us. Orion drops to the floor while Xavi and I remain rooted to the spot.
Thalia glares at us, trying to figure out why we didn't move. "What potion did she give you?! Or did another Witch help you like they helped your Hunter friend?"
"Witch, Witch, Witch," Amy mutters from her cell.
I feel Xavi's gaze on me, but I refuse to break eye contact with Thalia.
'Is she trying to tell Thalia that a Witch helped us or is she trying to tell her that we are Witch Hunters?Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
It didn't matter either way.
*So it seems that only you can talk," Thalia mutters with a smile. "We could change that. A Wolf. A tongueless idiot. Maybe I could take away your ability to hear." She smiles to herself and clicks her fingers.
Nothing happens. I still hear the heavy breathing of her oblivious guards. I still hear the beating heart of my mate. "What was supposed to happen?" I stare at her, but I also feel Xavi watching me.
She clicks her fingers again, and then again, growing more irritated when nothing happens.
'Nothing happened?" Xavi asks, concern etched in his tone.
"What the hell are you?!" Thalia snaps
*A Hunter. A Witch Hunter." I mutter just as there is an explosion somewhere above us.
Bits of stone fall from the ceiling, and Thalia backs up. Her attention moves from me to the falling debris. "No. No. This is not happening. She isn't even a pure breed."
"Move!" She screams at her guards as the clunking of a metal chain winds itself up. Her feet hit the steps as she races away. Her guards close behind her. Somehow, after everything that happened, her guards still acted like we weren't even here.
'The door!' Xavi mutters
I turn around to see him watching Amy's cell door rise.
"Amy, come on."
*Not safe. Danger, Danger everywhere."
Orion creeps under the rising door and lifts her from the ground, draping her over his shoulder. Amy doesn't protest other than her mutterings about it not being safe.
The clinking of the turning chain stops. "Orion, move."
He ducks under the gate and the moment he is free, the cell door drops, slamming into place.
*Indy?" I ask Orion
He gives me a thumbs up.
Brax must have found a way for them to escape. But now we had to kill Thalia or try to get out of this place alive.
