Dan's POV
My ankles burned like hell fire because I still had the stupid cuffs on. I tripped and fell as the agony of the cuffs became greater.
"Dan, get up!" Connor said grabbing my arm to pull me up.
"Stop! Please! God it burns so bad!" I said softly to him as my vision became blurry.
"Connor, get the cuffs off." Troye said covering my mouth to keep my cries from traveling.
"Troye-"
"Just try," he said and try Connor would. I screamed in agony as he tried every spell he could think of.
"There must be a charm on them." Connor said as my cries grew no less and my pain far greater.
"Can you undo it?"
"I would have to know what it is." Connor said and my vision grew spotted and a growl came from behind Connor.
"Take care of those cuffs." Troye said and took his hand off my mouth as I screamed. My ankles felt like they were being scratched by cats thousands of times in an attempt to cut my foot off. I heard fighting but it was soon silenced as the pain became to great to bare and my vision went dark.

Connor's POV
Dan's screaming was silenced as he pasted out and I kept trying to get his cuffs off. I heard growling and whining in the background and I didn't dare look back. Troye doesn't like it when I see him fight.
Vines Connor. Wrap him. Turning I did as he asked and wrapped Jordan in vines. Troye stepped away from him and I stood up.
"Why won't the cuffs come off?" I asked Jordan as pops and cracks were heard and he changed back to his human form.
"Because... They are magic resistant. You can only get them off with a key. You force them off and you can kill him."
"Are you insane! Where's the key!" I yelled at him and he smirked as the vines tightened.
"Some where you freaks will never find it. Dan is mine and that's the way it should be. Now unless you want him to die in the next hour I suggest you take him back to that cabin. The cuffs act like an invisible electric fence. Every time he leaves the 'fenced' area the cuffs cause him more and more pain till he returns." Jordan said and I looked to Troye.
"Take Dan back Troye while I squeeze this roach for information." Troye nodded gently biting his ankle and dragging him. Jordan growled and his eyes glowed yellow as he watched Troye drag Dan away. I let the vines tighten.
"Where is the key."
"In your little toy of a boyfriend's ass." I let the vines tightened a lot and he let out groan.
"What are you trying to prove? You're stronger? Better? That you can some how reunite Dan and his piece of shit-" I sent a vine around his throat.
"Don't talk about Phil that way." I growled, "Phil was a hundred times more a man than you." He laughed lowly as he swallowed hard.
"You have no idea who you're messing with." He said and I shook my head and began to pace.
"If I was insanely I love with someone where would I hide the key." I asked my self and looked around for inspiration when it hit me.
"Felix lost his memory. The Key is with Felix." I said a loud and looked to Jordan to see fear in his eyes, "Is that where the Key is?" I asked and his eyes shifted from me to the tree line and back again. I turned to look and my blood ran cold. A cool laugh rang out around us.
"Hello Jordan... Hello Connor... Nice to meet you both." I swallowed hard.
Troye. We are in serious trouble now.

Mariza's POV
Troye and Connor still hadn't come back yet and each moment they were gone made me worry more.
"Felix," I said pulling away from Phil's unconscious body, "do you want to go on a walk?" I asked him and he looked at me and smiled nodding softly.
"That'd be nice." He said and I grabbed his hand and we headed for the woods.
"You know Felix, I missed this. The sweet side of you. When ever we first got together type stuff."
"Have I ever been any different?"
"You were once. You were mean and only wanted power even if it meant putting your friends in serious danger."
"What do you mean?" I sighed as we walked.
"You've killed a friend of yours before. His name was Mark... You also fooled his boyfriend into turning you into a Hybrid."
"A Hybrid?" He said questioningly.
"You have a lot to learn but for now let's just enjoy our walk." I said and he smiled.
"You're so beautiful, Mariza." I smiled and kissed his cheek.
"Thank you, Felix." We heard a scream in the distance and I immediately started running. Felix at my side we were heading straight for the source of the scream. We ran until I bumped into someone. I fell to the ground and so did the other person I held my head and looked up. Troye.
"That was Connor!" He said panicked and we both got up.
"Where did you last see him?"
"This way," he said and started running. Felix and I followed close behind him. Everything seemed to slow down. Become sharper, and clearer. I could hear every molecule of air exhale and inhale. A cool dark laughter filled the air.
"You thought you saw the last of me when he died. I have returned and so has he. We are here for revenge. Prepare for the worst." A familiar voice rang through the air. Oh no.
"Troye-" I was cut off.
"CONNOR!" Troye screamed running over. Jordan was struggling in Vines. I raced over and knelt by Troye. I felt for Connor's pulse.
"He's alive. Troye, he's alive. He's ok." I said and Troye held Connor close and began to cry. I stood and turned to Jordan.
"Who was that," I asked and his eyes were wide with fear as I released the vine around his throat.
"It was-"
