I'm currently in my room naked waiting for my mates return when I had to quickly cover up when Sulpacia comes in. Her face filled with fear and worry.

"Sol?" I ask "what's wrong?"

"We just got word from Felix" she tells me "they were on their way home but were attacked" Caius was out looking for the Children of the Moon, he along with Felix and Demetri had gone to hunt down a few near Volterra.

"Caius?" I'm afraid to ask

"He's been decapitated" she tells me, I feel like the floor beneath me disappears when she says this. When I snap back to reality I head down to the infirmary, when I'm there dry tears are in my eyes as I watch my mates head be stuck back to his body.

"Mother" Jane says, I hold my hand up. Aro and Marcus are in here as well as an injured Felix and Demetri. The latter needed to be put together more than the other who just lost his arm.

"Annika" Aro softly says "he's"

"No one" my voice ice cold "no one speak" as I go to my mate I grab his hand looking at his sleeping face "Felix"

"Yes ma'am"

"Where was the wolves when this happened?" I demand "take me there"

"Annika" Aro argues "you can't, Caius"

"Take me!" I scream looking at them in fury.

"Of course" Felix gets up and I follow him as we head to the location of where my mate and his guards were ambushed. When we arrive it's to a small village a few miles outside of Volterra.

I see the Children of the Moon all around, letting the rage in me burn I scream blasting fire from my hands at the wolves. I hear howls and cries as I destroy them and everyone in that village. My rage that my mate is the way he is is because of these creatures.

When a few try to leave, I run at them and tear them limb from fucking limb. Blood splattering me, when the sun comes up I look around and find a female werewolf trying to hide but I grab her as she kicks and screams.

"Please!" She begs

"Where are the other packs?"

"No" I break her arm and she screams

"Where are the other packs?"

"There's a pack in France" she tells me of the small village, that werewolves tend to stay away from large crowds "please let me go" I snap her neck. When she falls I run to the village, I will kill whoever until all those fucking creatures are dead.

Marcus and I watch as Annika lets her rage out, it's terrifying watching her kill. The sweet girl that we have all known...there is none of that now. There's only rage and pain, we had Sulpacia and a few of the other upper guard stay with Caius and the others in Volterra as we follow Annika.

It's been over a week since the attack and Annika-she is acting like it happened yesterday. When she looks our way after destroying another village and it's occupants, I'm filled with fear not liking how she strides to us covered in blood and ash.

"Are you done?" I ask carefully, not needing her to burn me alive.

"I'll be done once all the fucking werewolves are gone" she growls moving past me and to her next destination.
