The Moons Darkside

Chapter Twenty-One | Break-In

Seth

Erick dropped Seth and Milo off at the base of the mounting, where the vampires lived alongside Rosehavens finest. Seth and mIlo transformed and ran to the east side of the Lycan Manor.

"His room is on the third floor. we can use the wall and climb up." Milo said, pointing to the wall; the wall had columns and vines hanging. Milo took a vine and shook it. He started to climb carefully to the third floor, and Seth was right behind him. Milo opens his switchblade and starts to break the window lock.

The window swings open, and milo climb in, then grabs Seth's hand and lifts him inside."Where is the fireplace?"Seth asked, and they looked around; it was an empty room with only a bed and a desk with no fireplace.

"Kian room is the only place with a fireplace and one window. We came from the east side, and I saw a chimney across overlooking the forest."Milo said.

"This is the exit plan," Seth said; he poked his head outside and checked if anyone was there. The coast was clear; he singled for Milo to follow him; Milo left a stick at the wedged door, so they remembered the room. They slowly walked doesn't the hall. Seth memorized the map, and they were heading to the first room with eh grand staircase.

Milo and Seth's ears perked as they heard two people talking. They quickly took cover in one of the closets till the voices passed them. Milo looked around, and they promptly walked.

"Whoa," Milo said; they made it to the first room with a massive chandelier in the middle with two grand staircases on each side. Seth looked around and scoffed. "You can't be just a little impressed at all this."Milo looked at him, but Seth was already down the hall. Milo quickened his steps.

"I'll be impressed when I have Kian's head on a wooden stake," Seth growled lowly, and they continued to walk.

There were cobwebs and dust everywhere; the only clean place was the last room. Seth quietly walked in and saw the fireplace a something being covered in the bed. Milo walked in after him. "I was expecting a sex swing," Milo said quickly, making Seth look back at him. "What?"Seth rolled his eyes in disgust.

They heard someone felt come down the hall. Seth and Milo looked at each other. They quickly hide behind the desk. They heard a muffled scream of a girl and a man groaning in annoyance.

"We should have killed you from the start," Michale said, having a knife in his hand, and Seth felt something in his heart sink.

"Tara, no!"Seth said he jumped over the desk and tackled Michale to the ground. And Milo came over to untie Tar from the bag over her head.

But it wasn't Tara.

"Predictable Werewolves."Micale laughed, and Seth looked and saw it was a little girl. She grabbed a nice from the bedside and kicked Milo into the stomach.

Milo started to dodge the girl's jabs trying to hurt him with the knife in her hand. He quickly disarms her and throws her on that bed. she gets up and jumps on his back, making him fall to the ground.

Two more men barged in. One started to fly Milo, and the other took the little girl away. Seth was doing a pure fistfight, and Michale cracked his neck and had his fist ready.

the little girl came outside with a phone in her hand."I have news, brother."

"Do tell sister."

"They came for her as you said. Michale is dealing with them both."

"I'll be home in time. This is the end of the Amaris bloodline."Kian said, smiling over the phone

Tara

Kian turned away and whispered into the call. He still held her arm, and Tara stood straight discussing with Kian's vampire coveen. She was in a room filled with vampires; if she cut herself, she wouldn't make it to sunrise. Kian got off the phone, and they went to their chairs. They sat next to a newly wedded couple.

"Oh, Kian, it's so lovely to see you. Oh, you've grown so much."The woman said, grabbing Kain's cheeks. To them, he was an average person because his mindset was similar to a dictator. They took their seats, and Kian was chatting with the couple. He would hold Tara's hand once in a while, and she could swat it away.

"So, who is the lovely girl."The woman asked, getting tara attention.

"Charlotte Oriana."Tara blurted out, and Kian looked over at her.

"Charlotte, what a lovely name; I've never met you before. Are you part of the Coven"

"No, my mother and father died when I was young, so I stayed with my grandmother up north; she never taught me about my Coven.TIll I met Kian, who taught me everything."

"Oh, so a mentor."The husband said, and Tara nodded.

"Yes, since we were so close, it felt like he was my friend."Tara looked over at him, sending him a light glare. The hostess grabbed her glass and tabbed it, making a toast.

"You're good at lying."

"I learn from the best, mentor."She glared at him and chuckled; they both raised their glass to the toast.

The rest of the night was to have dinner and drinks. Kian and Tara continued to talk to the married couple til it got late. Something inside Kain was exciting, and she held Tara's arm; as they walked to the car, Kian pushed her in and came after her, unlocking the handcuffs.

Tara looked at him as he leaned back and closed his eyes. Tara took off her mask and looked at him." what did you do?"

"Nothing, dear. You'll see when we get to the forest."

"Forest?"

"Like we discussed, dear, you've been wined and dined; time to finish this night after all."Kian looked at her, and tara felt her heart sink.

I'm going to die tonight.'

Tara had to steady her breath; this was her fate. Seth didn't come, after all, she felt her hand hang low in sadness and felt tear swell in her eyes, but she shuts her eyes to clear them away.
