Sin started speed walking back to the castle with me running to try and catch up with him.
"Wait what happened?" I ask once I am close enough for him to hear.
"Adonis was helping me translate the book this afternoon and finally cracked it. He knows where Abia is."
Saying that Sin turned into his lycan wolf and ran towards the castle. Following his actions, I turned into my grey wolf ripping my clothes as I ran behind him. As we were running I forgot about the lycan's strengths over normal wolves. By the time I got to the castle steps Sin had already been waiting for me minutes before. I noticed that Sin's wolf was almost two times bigger with black fur and a scar near his eye. Wonder where his wolf got that scar from? Sin moved him to indicate to me to follow him since we didn't have the ability to mind link. We walked in our wolf forms to his office where everybody else had already arrived. Sin opened his drawers for extra clothes and handed them to me once he had changed back. Werewolves weren't afraid of nudity due to us being naked every time we change and change back so we don't rip all our clothes. It's a rarity for us to still have clothes on usually it's when we are attacked by rogues.
Adonis started off the meeting by saying "Abia is in Steni Forrest in Evia."
"Where the fuck is Evia" Rissa asked.
"Greece. I have already booked the tickets for tomorrow so spend the day packing. Not sure how long it will take for us to find her exact location so pack for at least a month" Adonis replied.
"Make sure to bring your weapons. We don't know what's out there" Sin added.
Before leaving the office I quickly kissed Sin on the cheek and said "Thanks for our little date even though it was cut short."

Putting his arms around me pecking my forehead he said "After this little sabbatical we are going on a date without any interruptions."
"I would like that a lot Sin" I replied.
"I'll see you tomorrow then, sweetheart" Sin said letting me out of his arms instantly missing his heat.
Going to my room and changing into a back sports bra and legging I go to the castle gym to workout. I started with a quick warmup before walking up to the punching bag. Alternating my punches I started to hit the bag with my strength. Going to the gym always was a way for me to stop thinking and to get out of my head to only concentrate on my punches. I was stressed after the meeting due to our trip tomorrow. I don't even want to start thinking about what would happen if we don't find this prophet. The dark smoke would probably obliterate the rest of us.
"What the hell Ana good thoughts" I said to myself.
Continuing for almost an hour and a half before I walked back into my room to shower and wash off. After my shower I walked out of the bathroom to start packing, dumping a bunch of workout clothes along with three pairs of combat boots into my big backpack. In the second zip, I put all my guns and knives as my weapons. Since we were going to be hiking a lot in the forest I brought a gallon water bottle along with a bunch of food. I packed everything in about three hours before taking a break with the boys to catch up.
"God it feels like we have barely seen each other since we have been here," Xavier told me.
"That's because she is too busy replacing us with Rissa and Sin," Aiden said pouting playfully.
"Hmph. I could never replace you two, although you are both annoying assholes."

"Annoying wow. Xavier what do you think I think Ana needs a reminder of how annoying we could really be" Aiden said.
"Your right Aiden, I totally agree with you," Xavier said as both he and Aiden edge closer to me.
Realizing what they are about to do, I ran across the room.
"Oh hell no. Please don't do this to me again, I will be extra nice for a month."
"Sorry, Ana there isn't anything you can do to get out of this" Aiden replied before rushing to me at full speed. Aiden put me over his shoulder and placed me on the sofa before tickling me. Xavier joined him, making me giggle uncontrollably.
"Stop—" I said in between laughing too hard.
After a minute or so they finally stopped and sat on either side of me on the couch.
"I'm happy for you," Aiden said after we all calmed down.
"Huh," I said confused.
"I haven't seen you this carefree in a long time, although you still are a stoic bitch sometimes," Aiden said.
Rolling my eyes on his comment Aiden continued "I'm glad that you like the lycan king. I know the whole mate thing brought you thinking that you would never be with anyone but now you have someone to maybe love in the future."
"You are going to always have us but now you might have someone else to be with you" Xavier added on to Aiden.
"I love—" I said before getting interrupted by a large crash from outside.
Looking out the big window in the room my heart immediately dropped at the sight outside. Right then and there the ground began to shake underneath us.
"Fuck my life. Not this again" Xaiver said jumping up quickly from his seat on the couch.
Coping Aiden's movement we all ran out of the suite to get out of the castle as fast as possible. Once we reached the front the same scene as the last time was in front of me. All pack members were following Rissa, Leo, and Darius to the waterfall we were at last time during this. Sinclair led the crowd from behind along with Adonis the boys. I was about to follow them before I heard a small cry from behind me.
"Mommy where are you," said the little girl near the forest calling out to her mom.
Oh fuck the trees were already falling and the earthquake had already passed, it shouldn't be long before the smoke appears.
Running quickly towards the forest to get to the little girl and bent down to her level to say "Hey princess your mommy is probably with everyone else. I need you to run as fast as possible with me that way, okay."
She nodded and started to run in the direction I pointed at before. Before following her I looked behind to make sure the smoke hadn't appeared to us yet. Thank god she was a lycan so she was almost halfway there when I caught up to her. Together we ran almost reaching the falls before I noticed a change in the air. Still running I looked behind me to see the black smoke coming towards us fast.
"Faster" I screamed at the little girl.
She sped up using her lycan powers to run faster before she reached the ground where Rissa made a little opening in her shield to let her in.
Almost making it I heard a roar, "ANA!"
Sinclair screamed at me before the smoke engulfed me in its hold and all I could see was the darkness.

The Stormcrow Cycle
Once a powerful and lauded witch, Ba'an salu-Ba'an now lives alone in a cave in the desert, waiting to die. When she rescues an outlander from certain death she becomes embroiled in a deadly game of politics and empire, of heart and soul, but worst of all--of hope and love and a chance at a peaceful future. Can a disgraced witch find a reason to live her life again--and if so, what price must she pay? The Stormcrow Cycle is a trilogy comprising of The Exile, The Lion, and Abomination. Tags or genres for each book: The Exile: romance, slice-of-life The Lion: romance, slice-of-life, politics Abomination: tragedy, high/epic fantasy (aka "Everything is on fire!") Updates once a week whenever I have time. Cross-posted on Wattpad and Scribble Hub. The CBMokedi cover will return! Excerpt: She looked down at him again. Young. Healthy, from what she could see, except for the wound that was killing him. He was handsome in a way that suggested a life of wealth and plenty. She did not think he had ever starved. Someone important. Her shadow fell across him, and he frowned. Blearily, he opened his eyes. They were amber and bright, even as he lay dying in the dirt. She could feel his soul, blazing inside of him like a fire refusing to die even as his body began to fail. He met her gaze, eyes widening in what she guessed was surprise—or shock. But he never looked away, staring up at her as though transfixed. Ba’an made her decision. She raised her hand and covered his eyes. In another moment, a murder of crows cawed as they took wing. The man and woman were gone from the road, leaving only the dead staring up into the sky. Note: This is a high-fantasy set in a low-magic world. The first book is largely character-driven and we really only hit the real plot in Book II, so if you're not fond of long epic yarns you ought to skip this one. I also don't include trigger warnings, but mind the "traumatizing content" tag--all societies minus one practice slavery and the world is indeed, rather grim!
