“Well... | hope you can see that here. We have a goal that is right, the true way... And
you have proven yourself, Sebastian. | think with the approaching battle, | have no
doubt of what you are capable of and that you will lead our people diligently.”
| listen as we walk down the endless dark tunnels of this place.
“Ah, Gerard did tellabout the antidote you wanted for your daughter, and | can
understand that. She suffered... unnecessarily.” He says, smiling at me. There's no
remorse and obviously, there wouldn't be. He doesn’t give a fuck.
The temptation to rip him to shreds right here consumes me, but instead, with every
ounce of willpower | have, | simply nod.
“She is a child, and | am certain | will have my children on my side when the battle
is over. We will teach them what is right and our ways.”
“Children...” he nods. “Hmm, what if we take them from her sooner? | mean, we can
give your daughter the antidote ourselves. Besides, if they're here, we'll be able to

No. Fuck no.
“And it.
are unable to bring them here? Then what? | mean, Zaia has kept them
locked away and my daughter is getting worse.”
“Yes, we saw that, but | was curious about one thing before you left the pack,
Sebastian. | saw you go to all the security centres, even the prison facility... why? |
don’t want to be accusing you, but when we had you, try to hack into those you were
locked out. I'm assuming Zaia did that, but.... Are you sure it was not you?”
He is quick-witted and this tI’m unable to stop the thump of my heartbeat. That
is exactly what I had done...
“| feel insulted,” | say coldly, in an attempt to cover up my emotions.
“Is it not why you went to those places?” he asks, his obvious accusation barely
hidden, and | now look him dead in the eye.

“No, in fact, | went to get us sintel,” | say coldly.
| feel fucking relieved | had thought of a reason in case the enemy saw what | did before leaving.
“He is correct, Lawrence. Let him off.” Gerard says as he walks over to us. “He got us
sblueprints and information on the pack, as well as svery important statistics about their number of
assault and defence power. Guards, warriors, and
security.”
Lawrence nods slowly. Then forgive me. | have just learned to be extremely careful.

“No need. | understand where you are coming from. It’s good to be on the safe side.” |

Gerard chuckles. “Yes... well, | think we can give him the promised antidote, don’t

“Is it safe? | mean, that was his incentive to join us, wasn’t it?” The older man says
keenly.
He has no heart; he wasn’t fazed about Melanie's death, and he wouldn't care if
anything happened to my little Sia.
“I can assure you, my loyalty lies here, but | do care for my children,” | say.
They look up a little too quickly for my liking, and it makesuneasy.
“Of course, we all care for our children,” Lawrence says, increasing the feeling of
foreboding I'm getting because he didn’t care when he learned his daughter was
dead.
“I will give you the antidote, Sebastian, for little Sia but in return... We need proof
that you are ready to go to any extent to win this battle for us,” Gerard says, with
another glance at Lawrence.
“Like | said, | will do anything.” | say.
Gerard smiles. “Then | want you to kill Atticus Payne’s family.”
