++++++Remus's POV++++++

I finally have Ray back. I don't care one way or the other what happens to the rest but if I have him, nothing else matters. I've come so far for this moment. I won't have them take what's mine ever again. Ray belongs to me and he knows it. Just wait and see you fools. Don't think its easy and over with. I walked towards the Execution Room. "Hey, you." I beckoned. A guy in his teens stepped towards me. His face was scarred and his smile was toothy. "You're in charge of the "safety" of our princess in our transaction. I want my Queen to be comfortable when he gets here so don't do anything foolish got that?" The guy nodded back. He's a loyal dog that will follow any order I give him. This should be worthwhile. I laughed to myself as I walked down the hallways. Ray...God...how I want to murder you!

++++++Lloyd's POV++++++

It was too easy...way too easy... Something is not right. Remus is not that type of person to let someone off the hook so easily. Only two groups tried to stop us. Or am I and my sister not that important. If that's so then...why am I getting this sick feeling like something big and bad is going to happen? Did Remus planned this all out? Does he only want Raymond? Something doesn't click. He's too greedy and ambitious for that. I gotta tell the others.

++++++Nico's POV++++++

I hugged my knees close to my chest. 'What's going on?' I looked over to the couple. They just got back a few minutes ago. I don't know where they've been summoned to but I know Remus was included. They won't tell me anything. Leo seems to be at edge and Reika looks sad. I wanted to hide. The silence was awkward. "Nico...umm...you'll be set free tonight by 10 pm. Your dad and your Alpha came and made a deal. So...get ready." Leo finally spoke to me. "What?!" 'I am happy to be finally free, of course but...it doesn't feel right.' "What's the deal?" I asked. Reika looked away from me. "Don't worry about it. You're free! That's like...a ticket to heaven!" Leo grinned at me. I looked at the two. Will it be weird if I say I'll miss those two? "Now, don't get sad." Rei said. "You'll think about us now and then right? I'll say send us a text or a letter once a month but that doesn't happen." He smiled at me. "Are we friends?" I asked. The two smiled at me. "Of course, we are. Though this and that happen...hehehe." Rei replied. It doesn't feel right. "You better get prepared. Come on. I'll get you around and find you some clothes to wear. Maybe a shower too." Reika smiled at me. I nodded.

I'm free? Why do I feel this dread then? I'm happy that I'll see Conall again but... Something's really wrong. Something doesn't add up right.

I followed the couple throughout the building. No one stopped us or tried to even talk to us. They wouldn't even look at us. It was nice that I have a little privacy but it was so weird. I don't know how to describe this unsettling feeling. It was disturbing and...just plain wrong. Leo got me some clothes while Rei and I took a shower. The cold water was nice. I soaked for probably an hour till I finally got out. "Here." Leo said tossing over my clothes. The two were already.clothed and clean themselves when I got out. "Did I take that long?" I asked. "More or less." They teased. It was a relief that I'll finally cover myself but the clothes felt weird on me. It's like I'm wearing clothes for the first time. I never thought I'll think that its more comfortable being nude. I'll get used to it again though. We walked towards a big door that opened up to the outside world. The air was crisp and wet. It looks like it'll rain soon. I looked over my back but Rei and Leo was already leaving. "Wait!" I called after them. "Hold on." They stopped and turned back to me. "Stay till I go?" I whispered in a question rather than a statement. Reika nodded but Leo seems upset.

The sky rumbled, deep and omnimous. It was dark and cloudy were you couldn't see the stars nor the moon. The trees whipered to each other of secrets that no one knows. Leo and Rei stood behind me. "Its 9:59." Reika informed me. In a far of distance I could here an engine running. It's my ride...I assume. As my heart beats, a second has passed, and as a second has passed the nearer the sound. Soon enough I could go home. A group of people guarded us. They were far back though. Probably making sure that I was delievered safely? At exactly 10 pm they arrived. It was a man with dark hair. He was in a jeep. There was also a group behind it but I couldn't see them, they were distanced enough so that I couldn't. "Goodbye." I told them. "Bye." The answered. I was about to go when Leo grabbed my shoulders. "Be careful, especially with places where there's too much trees. Also...try not to pass the lake." I looked back at him but he shook his head. I got inside the jeep. Rei closed the door for me. "Be safe okay?" He said. It felt like a warning. The engine started and off we go.
