My aching body was shaking from the freezing still air as I blinked awake. The little light I managed to focus on was a few tiny flicking candles. Alex was stood by them holding a large leather bound book, trailing a finger along a page. Pushing myself up slowly I realised my right leg was chained up. I followed the chain to see Puck with the other end of the chain wrapped round him as he was sat up in a chair. The very end of the chain was secured to the wall. We were somewhere underground but definitely within an old stone building.
"Iron," Alex said looking up from the book and gaining my attention. "Interesting isn't it how it burns it but doesn't kill it" he spoke with a menacing grin.
"Let him go," I groaned as the wolves bane was digging into my chained ankle.
Alex crouched down to me "uh not happening. I need him out of the way. This pixie is more dangerous than you think." He sat on the floor "don't worry it'll be over soon then the real work begins." My frown was obviously hilarious to him as he began to chuckle. "That's right you still think this is about showing the world your kinds are evil. It's about power. My father didn't see what he could get out of this but I do, you'll live don't worry about that but I am going to have to kill your boyfriend and my meddlesome brother. So in a few moments I will become the most powerful force on this planet and you will be my bitch guard mutt." He stood back up and went back to the book. I watched as he brought back over a lit candle placing it on the floor right in front of me. "Now let's begin."
