Alexander’s POV
We will be there in an hour. My dad mind-linked . Most of our pack mbers left already. How is she?
I looked at the demon behind the glass.
The sa. I mumbled angrily. Still trying to provoke us.
Just a little while longer. My dad sighed. Just one more hour and we will get our princess back.
I gulped and clenched my fists.
I heard Hunter approaching the cabin. He was rushing and I knew that he would be in here in just a few short seconds. I glanced to my right and saw him enter. He had a worried look on his face.
“My dad told everything,” I said, making him nod.
He approached the glass and took a deep breath. The demon looked at him.
“Oh, hello, Hunter,” it said. “I missed you.”
I could hear his teeth clank together.
“I can’t say the sa,” Hunter said, his voice trembling.
The demon laughed, throwing its head back.
“Oh, let’s not lie to each other,” it said. “That’s not the way to start our relationship.”
Hunter clenched his fists. Mason growled. I kept my eyes firmly on the demon. I hated it and I couldn’t wait for it to be gone.
“I am not yours,” Hunter said, trying to remain calm. “I am Sophia’s.”
The demon chuckled. “It’s a good thing that Sophia and I are the sa person.”
I growled loudly, making the demon look at . It smiled and took a step closer to the glass. It eyed up and down and sighed.
“Do you want to know I was screaming before the darkness finally took over ?” it asked. “Do you want to know my last words before I stopped being that weak little girl?”
My heart clenched painfully. Did I want to know her last words?
The demon smirked, keeping its eyes on .
“I begged them not to do it,” it said. “I pleaded with them and fought as hard as I could. I kept screaming your na, hoping that you would sohow hear and co rescue .”
Pain washed over and I almost crumpled to the floor. My Fia was screaming for . She was screaming my na, trying to get to co and help her, and I didn’t do shit.
“I was in so much pain,” the thing continued. “All I could think about was my family and how badly I wanted to be ho.”
The thing looked at Hunter.
“I thought about you too,” it continued. “I thought about your arms around . I thought about your hugs and kisses. I wanted it all so much.”
I glanced at Hunter and saw his hands shaking a little.
The thing looked back at .
“But the one person I wanted the most was you,” the thing said. “You were the only one who knew how to chase the darkness and the pain away and all I wanted in that mont was you.”
I felt like the pain would kill .
Hearing how much my Fia needed was ripping to pieces. Axel was howling and whining. I was on the verge of breaking. I couldn’t feel my body.
Hunter grabbed my hand and squeezed it.
Breathe, Alex. Mason mind-linked . It is manipulating you. We don’t even know if what it is saying is true. Don’t let it break you.
What I hated the most was the way it was talking about all of that like it happened to it as well. It didn’t. It happened to my Fia. My Fia was the one screaming for help, not that thing in front of .
“I feel silly talking about it now,” the thing continued, shaking its head and chuckling. “If I knew how good the darkness felt, I would have stopped you from chasing it away years ago.”
I growled loudly. The thing laughed.
“Oh, get used to it Alex,” it said. “This is who I am now. I am still your twin, aren’t I?”
I clenched my jaw and narrowed my eyes.
“You are not my twin,” I said through my teeth. “You are using my twin’s body, but you are not her. My twin is still sowhere inside and I will get her out.”
The thing laughed loudly and shook its head.
“Oh, I can’t wait to see the look on your face when you realize that there is no one inside to save,” it said. “Everything but the darkness is dead. That naive Sophia you keep ntioning is dead.”
Hunter flinched. Mason growled loudly. I managed to keep my composure.
I forced a smirk on my face. I had to get inside its head, just like it tried to get inside mine.
“Oh, there is so much more going on inside you than you realize,” I said, making its eyes narrow a little.
“Are you talking about Stella?” it asked, rolling its eyes. “I don’t believe you. I killed that wolf.”
I forced myself to laugh even though I didn’t want to. I wanted to scream.
“You are clueless,” I said, shaking my head. “You are also pretty weak for soone claiming to be powerful.”
The thing narrowed its eyes at .
“Our Sophia is so much stronger than you,” Mason said, making the thing glare at him. “Even trapped inside her own body she managed to fight against you and help us defeat you.”
The thing gulped nervously. It chuckled, looking back at .
“I know what you are trying to do,” it said. “It won’t work, though. I don’t believe a word that you are saying.”
I smirked. “Don’t you? I saw you flinch a couple of tis. We are convincing, aren’t we?”
The thing flinched slightly. It glanced at Hunter.
“They are right,” Hunter said firmly. “My mate is stronger than you will ever be.”
The thing clenched its fists.
“Any last words from you?” I asked, making it look back at . “We will never repeat them again, though.”
The thing’s eyes widened.
I laughed, enjoying the confused and scared look on its face.
We would bring my Fia back and bury this thing in the deepest pits of hell.
