Chapter 35
Vander wasn’t surprised to see the117Please respect copyright.PENANANoo2LHyXAw
Serpents here tonight. Like Alex, they had probably followed him once he was117Please respect copyright.PENANAf4RF7vhMCM
spotted going back to the safe house they had used. He would be lying if he117Please respect copyright.PENANALodYuHmQvz
hadn’t said it was part of his plan, but he didn’t expect the ambush to happen117Please respect copyright.PENANA52CjNMbZfk
down here. He was unprepared and without a weapon, the closest one was several117Please respect copyright.PENANANUnk4QBNxh
feet away so he doubted that they would give him time to grab it. However, if117Please respect copyright.PENANAbtlTwLkObx
he did nothing he would die so, he moved.
He rushed towards the sword his117Please respect copyright.PENANAPhgkZl9ewS
previous opponent had used. A serpent stepped into his path swinging a sword117Please respect copyright.PENANAnIvwtqs5vl
aimed to take off his head. Vander grabbed some loose rocks from the ground117Please respect copyright.PENANABvyEOtLcYL
then threw it at the person. One of the rocks hit the sword causing it to go117Please respect copyright.PENANAZnBH4ZW3nI
slightly off while the other wacked the serpent standing behind him. The mask117Please respect copyright.PENANA7NWZzOoojV
absorbed the blow because the serpent didn’t even flinch.
Despite the quick thinking, he117Please respect copyright.PENANAirL9jGls49
couldn’t block the sword from cutting him, but instead of taking off his head117Please respect copyright.PENANASG0AwdvGkT
it only cut his shoulder. Biting back the pain as the blood started to flow, he117Please respect copyright.PENANAW5k4Dwd7cB
tackled the serpent around the waist knocking them both to the ground. Before117Please respect copyright.PENANAPA2T8A44XN
he could do anything, however, the third rushed forward trying to cut his neck.117Please respect copyright.PENANAvJtbcoidxO
Vander bent backwards to avoid the blow, but in the process was knocked off of117Please respect copyright.PENANACefFGAxSWh
the Serpent.
Unlike the others he had fought,117Please respect copyright.PENANAwMnLJbStWH
these two seemed to do well as a team. When one went down, the others were117Please respect copyright.PENANA0ODHQBtHiM
always there to cover them. It was slowly becoming a pain and he couldn’t rely117Please respect copyright.PENANAVgVDp9tOjr
on help from anyone else since they were all busy trying to escape before they117Please respect copyright.PENANAGtSIPsc0OL
were killed as well. He could hear Alex calling for him, but he was nowhere to117Please respect copyright.PENANAj5cWLfgyqE
be seen. Vander was on his own. Or was he?
He closed his eyes then reached117Please respect copyright.PENANAw86EYYZbpc
deep into himself. He could hear his inner demon laughing at him, taunting him117Please respect copyright.PENANACfp1zlXnbc
for even needing his help despite constantly shoving him away. Vander argued117Please respect copyright.PENANAt99nQrJ0fs
with him saying that if he died, then they would both die and he wouldn’t get117Please respect copyright.PENANAUQKuRDEozM
what he wanted: his freedom. The demon was quiet for a moment, but Vander could117Please respect copyright.PENANAzWPHPlw3s5
feel that once given freedom it would be trouble trying to get it back, but he117Please respect copyright.PENANAhpHSgN0JAq
was out of options. They needed each other to survive.
Power flooded through his body as117Please respect copyright.PENANAmdCmU5hQJt
he felt the demon’s consciousness flow to the forefront. However, it didn’t117Please respect copyright.PENANA9Xsl7Mu4Jt
feel as bad as he thought it would. All of his senses were heightened, he could117Please respect copyright.PENANAmMl4Yjws49
feel everything around him. His body was also overflowing with power, and he117Please respect copyright.PENANAqdLvEVRvNm
knew that he could take the Serpents, even without a weapon. It was time for117Please respect copyright.PENANA1lqJgpC6kw
the demon to show that he was more than just talk.
The demon lunged forward grabbing117Please respect copyright.PENANAs3IBw2tGtk
one of the Serpents by the neck before the others could react. The two of them117Please respect copyright.PENANAnGFJ5qf8W7
vaulted forward slamming into the backwall. He felt the man’s bones crack under117Please respect copyright.PENANAubpHLAjwVv
the blow, but the demon tore the serpent’s throat out with elongated claws. He117Please respect copyright.PENANAQtFz3Jj6Qb
fell to his knees gurgling blood but one kick from Vander’s leg put them out of117Please respect copyright.PENANAdOHBk8pnUv
their misery. Vander’s body turned to see the other two rushing towards him117Please respect copyright.PENANA13ddom5wRQ
with swords swinging towards him. He brought his hands up to block the strike117Please respect copyright.PENANAIBz0rqDGET
and he thought the swords would just cut right through, but they didn’t. Thick117Please respect copyright.PENANAgWzPsS5qyu
armor plates sprouted on his arms to protect him.
The serpents must not have117Please respect copyright.PENANAZtd7wRaiwJ
expected it either because for a brief second, they paused and that was enough117Please respect copyright.PENANAmYEPUhQbeF
for the demon to go on the offensive. He reached across, grabbed both swords,117Please respect copyright.PENANAM0gUI7DRze
then shattered them with his bare hands. As shards of metal rained down around117Please respect copyright.PENANAWTjlsmeLa4
them, the demon took the few that were in his hands then shoved them into one serpent’s117Please respect copyright.PENANAlSGeOnpRd2
face causing them to cry out and drop to their knees. The other serpents117Please respect copyright.PENANAf43fOcRUSG
grabbed his friend then jumped away from Vander.
The demon grinned, Vander could117Please respect copyright.PENANAwnTLPAqY6j
feel his joy through their bond. He could have killed the last two without117Please respect copyright.PENANAl0BZiq1KV1
breaking a sweat, but he enjoyed making them suffer. He was a predator just117Please respect copyright.PENANAYFH2PIOWIO
toying with his food believing that their fear and despair would make the meat117Please respect copyright.PENANAebV8TuHFdQ
taste all the sweeter. The two of them walked towards the wounded Serpent.117Please respect copyright.PENANAdQ7h1kjtay
Vander could feel them tense, but they looked at one another and got to their117Please respect copyright.PENANAAu88ngc6lU
feet. Vander had the vaguest thought that they were biding their time. Normally117Please respect copyright.PENANAZGchjGirmz
they would have run away, living to fight another day, but here they were117Please respect copyright.PENANACmRqPywdTZ
making a stand. Something was wrong. Vander tried to tell the demon, but he117Please respect copyright.PENANA5dm5g2XgnD
didn’t want to listen. If anything, it amped him up even more.
He ran forward, his fingers117Please respect copyright.PENANA9xWtQhVEoC
becoming talons once again. The uninjured Serpent dodged to the side while the117Please respect copyright.PENANApoiPC5ILIk
other got to his feet. The demon shoved his talons into the serpent’s chest117Please respect copyright.PENANARy8WB9Xpdp
causing them to stick out the back. Vander could feel the blood sticking to his117Please respect copyright.PENANAxZQLPlkZdC
fingers as it dripped into the sands. However, the biggest surprise was that117Please respect copyright.PENANAoUYP7uGJGY
the Serpent wasn’t dead yet. Grinning as blood poured from his mouth, the117Please respect copyright.PENANAxuX7SC1ONO
Serpent grabbed them in a backbreaking hug. Vander could see the triumph117Please respect copyright.PENANAByJwxmxXTF
shining in the man’s eyes as he heard a cry coming from behind him.
Vander felt nothing but pain as a117Please respect copyright.PENANAwlcPg4leDy
sword was shoved through his back and into the serpent he was in front of. The117Please respect copyright.PENANAXHMBBdnER3
Serpent died with a smile on his face while both Vander and the demon screamed117Please respect copyright.PENANAWTHqP5gJ0F
in pain. He couldn’t get the other serpent from himself to escape because both117Please respect copyright.PENANAUbL2PUPIQg
were stuck together. The demon reached for the other behind him, but he jumped117Please respect copyright.PENANA62ffG4hLPH
out of the way. He snarled a challenge, but the serpent did the smart thing,117Please respect copyright.PENANA3M8nCWLqod
not rising to the bait. However, despite the dire circumstance, Vander still117Please respect copyright.PENANAujqEmrX5sc
felt no fear from the demon, just amusement. He found out why a moment later.
The demon grabbed the sword hilt117Please respect copyright.PENANApKIVK7Ve9E
and slowly pulled it out of their back. The pain was intense, but as it117Please respect copyright.PENANAzFqthDf4WJ
withdrew the pain gradually disappeared. Vander could feel the wound start to117Please respect copyright.PENANAq5ljuoybyH
heal as the sword disappeared. The other serpent fell to the ground, still117Please respect copyright.PENANAScjVCzt1Ws
smiling, as if not aware in death that his sacrifice had been in vain.
“You’re a monster.” The other117Please respect copyright.PENANAh0lJmoyIGd
serpent blanched as he stared at Vander’s body healing away the damage.
“You’re just learning that now?”117Please respect copyright.PENANA6XPiKKjNa1
The demon’s voice was low and gravelly. However, it echoed through the arena.117Please respect copyright.PENANAuoud1uYZgD
“I’ve been alive for centuries, praying on weak fools like you. I found against117Please respect copyright.PENANALImi7ejGKS
the gods and lived. These wounds are nothing compared to the torment I have117Please respect copyright.PENANAsS6BAy5ogv
felt since the dawn of my life. What makes you think you could do anything to117Please respect copyright.PENANA5eQXD4RXFq
me?” The demon walked over, grabbed the Serpent’s head and, with a smile,117Please respect copyright.PENANADB6Bs2LNpN
ripped his head clean off. The headless body spurted blood all over Vander as117Please respect copyright.PENANACUDaPcubRE
the demon screamed in triumph clutching the severed head as his trophy.117Please respect copyright.PENANAKVxhmiic5W
“Delicious,” he sighed running his tongue over his bloodied face. “I forgot how117Please respect copyright.PENANAcvIZyer8uN
good you human’s tasted.” If Vander had been in control of his body, he would117Please respect copyright.PENANAdNwKHubReN
have puked.
The two of them instinctively117Please respect copyright.PENANAp7fg2lKIOr
looked towards the stands as they had felt a terrifying presence enter their117Please respect copyright.PENANAiy7euADDde
space. It was someone Vander knew, and it felt familiar, almost like a long-lost117Please respect copyright.PENANA2l5hYB5lO8
brother. He looked up see pale yellow eyes staring down at him from a hooded117Please respect copyright.PENANAEmI1W4suYv
man wearing light green armor. Fear traveled through the demon as he stared at117Please respect copyright.PENANAMVz3TaooE1
the assassin. One name flashed in his mind: Aubum. This was the assassin he had117Please respect copyright.PENANAfwPDoRbqec
met when he had been with Malcolm: Draken.
Draken dropped to the ground117Please respect copyright.PENANA0UNuv10j80
barely kicking up any dirt as he landed. Vander froze as the assassin walked117Please respect copyright.PENANAaXCTyWQeby
towards him. If he had worked for Malcolm, there was a chance he was coming for117Please respect copyright.PENANAaJBch5ouF4
revenge, but based on his demeanor Vander didn’t think that was right. Draken117Please respect copyright.PENANADa3dMYTuEo
stopped next to him then whispered something that caused Vander to freeze. The117Please respect copyright.PENANA2o2qqt1ask
demon spat out a response but went back into Vander’s body. He was suddenly117Please respect copyright.PENANACJUFhLVm3H
locked back into control. They sudden shift caused him to stumble forwards. Draken117Please respect copyright.PENANAz7F5IoSAmk
took a step back then disappeared into thin air.
“The soldiers are here!” Vander117Please respect copyright.PENANAVNw5OSWHWu
looked up as one of Ross’s people started screaming. Moments later Vander heard117Please respect copyright.PENANA3vzLKQPgm6
the door being kicked down.
“Vander!” Alexander shouted. He117Please respect copyright.PENANArTgGcjMFIc
looked up to his friend looking frantically for him. The door was launched off117Please respect copyright.PENANAUN9myi3qH6
its hinges as soldiers and Blades rushed into the room. Vander could hear them117Please respect copyright.PENANASfVj5kwnJZ
screaming for people to get on the floor. He looked towards Ross but saw that117Please respect copyright.PENANAuHBBysBK40
he was already gone. He looked around for some place to escape, but only saw117Please respect copyright.PENANA8bt84lGAI7
the tunnel where his opponent had entered from. Seeing no other way, he headed117Please respect copyright.PENANAfsjYgrlUHc
towards the dark.
The tunnel smells like dirt,117Please respect copyright.PENANAkHGQXaTIjt
sweat, and blood. This must have been where the injured were taken to either be117Please respect copyright.PENANATLJPOKQyth
disposed of if they were too far gone or patched up. There are separate rooms117Please respect copyright.PENANAD88EZDQnxQ
filled with weapons, a sparring room, and a room with several beds. It seemed117Please respect copyright.PENANAdgHWrcYdsN
more like a gladiator arena from centuries past than a fighting ring, but then117Please respect copyright.PENANAdbkctduZJu
again Ross had a flair for the dramatics.
There was no one down there, which117Please respect copyright.PENANAYVxGnqkpEa
was strange. Usually, it would be packed with people waiting for their turn to117Please respect copyright.PENANAAXCOuSO7jG
fight, but it was a ghost town. It made him wonder if Ross knew that the117Please respect copyright.PENANAkXCLrMoKVH
military was coming for him, so he made sure that he was long gone before they117Please respect copyright.PENANAcjoF8D6gXu
arrived.
Vander walked117Please respect copyright.PENANAqEhAgrsL8E
towards the room in the darkest corner where he knew Draken was waiting for117Please respect copyright.PENANA77MBnWJX5K
him. He could smell the chill of death coming from inside. He was right where117Please respect copyright.PENANAGE6pLn70bF
he said he would be.
“You can’t keep running forever.”117Please respect copyright.PENANA78weOQssCQ
Draken stepped out from the shadows. “Eventually you will have to clear your117Please respect copyright.PENANAd4MbN4dSRI
name and fight against those who wish to harm this country.”
“When I don’t know who to trust,117Please respect copyright.PENANAAltUeNQGXO
my life is constantly in jeopardy.” Vander sat down on a bench. “There are117Please respect copyright.PENANAonAdQ5czLV
those who would love nothing more to stab me in the back. What else can I do to117Please respect copyright.PENANAKqgatLUeFX
make sure I stay safe?”
“Learn to trust those around you.”117Please respect copyright.PENANAStafRB7v4n
Draken said. “Malcolm trusted you, Cuvera trusts you, and you have the trust of117Please respect copyright.PENANASLN0jo7NgB
the Blades. It’s time you started trusting them. You cannot find the answers117Please respect copyright.PENANAs26OlC6bJQ
you seek by hiding.”
Vander knew that he was speaking117Please respect copyright.PENANAfg5JHrZxMR
the truth. There was nothing he could do now, he was trapped. Only two options117Please respect copyright.PENANAsL5oRKT7pC
lie ahead of him: fight and die or turn himself in and have a chance. He slowly117Please respect copyright.PENANAOYE5ENHMCh
nodded his head.
“There is a book in my room.” He117Please respect copyright.PENANA4wyELGh9Ud
spoke. “A book that Peyton killed the King to get. Make sure he doesn’t get his117Please respect copyright.PENANANpdOI0Lizh
hands on it.”
“Do you know what’s in it?”
“A description of the Gods,” he117Please respect copyright.PENANARK8Y1LjCsi
explained. “Other than that, I am not sure. I only looked at it once.”
“I will keep it safe.” Draken went117Please respect copyright.PENANARSC7r0KwXW
to leave, but Vander grabbed his arm. He pulled a necklace from around his neck117Please respect copyright.PENANAoi2oHk9D4I
then handed it to him. It was a long white tooth, a trophy taken from the117Please respect copyright.PENANACUrFqWK9lz
Shadow Beast he had killed. “Tell Shea that I will return for her.” Draken took117Please respect copyright.PENANACxCC0826Mn
the tooth, nodded, then disappeared.
Vander gave himself a few minutes117Please respect copyright.PENANA8CTfQNPF0c
before getting off the bench. He walked back up the ramp where he could hear117Please respect copyright.PENANAgQqvSnYKUg
the soldiers interrogating any of the patrons, they could get their hands on.117Please respect copyright.PENANAbdXpDMtM87
Some were being rough, punching or kicking those who wouldn’t answer their117Please respect copyright.PENANACxk7Ir2ZMC
questions.
“Where is Vander?” He heard Leon’s117Please respect copyright.PENANAwcXNN9ybNm
voice ring out over the shouted. It was followed by a thud then a scream. It117Please respect copyright.PENANAtQ77Udluv8
sounded like Alexander. Enraged, Vander burst out of the tunnel. The guards117Please respect copyright.PENANAJ8MFC0wkMU
around the entrance were too startled to do anything as he raced towards Leon.117Please respect copyright.PENANAEILYwpGcCV
Alex was being held by two other guards as Leon punched Alex repeatedly in the117Please respect copyright.PENANAD9ZY9i0l8K
face. No said a word as Vander grabbed Leon’s shoulder then, as he turned117Please respect copyright.PENANARGHgsAYA4l
around, clocked him in the jaw.
Alex freed himself by bringing his117Please respect copyright.PENANAayoG5YZCn6
head back against the nose of one of the Blades that held him before throwing117Please respect copyright.PENANAvBv8V6nhk1
the other on the ground. Leon scrambled to his feet drawing his sword.
“Kill them both,” he screeched.117Please respect copyright.PENANAkEfSBKoeBW
Blades looked at each other warily, unwilling to listen to the captains’117Please respect copyright.PENANANsVhvu0q8s
commands, and the soldiers didn’t move as Leon didn’t give them orders.
“The orders were to bring them in117Please respect copyright.PENANAjAflnwr9Vp
alive.” Vander looked over to see Eric Jilena walking over towards them.117Please respect copyright.PENANAHIKo7Ik2et
“Though, I wouldn’t mind you fighting back a little bit so I can get revenge on117Please respect copyright.PENANAujII8yGtvl
my son’s murderer.”
“I didn’t kill your son.” Vander117Please respect copyright.PENANAJN9BqHvJ4W
sighed, but he raised his hands and got down to his knees. “When I left, he was117Please respect copyright.PENANAs4Baky0HHH
unconscious.”
“Not that I don’t want to believe117Please respect copyright.PENANARsuyGBouBs
you, but when I saw him, he was dead. Only two of you know the truth and one is117Please respect copyright.PENANAf2XT74Mppx
dead. Excuse me if I don’t believe the words of a king killer.” Eric spat.
“You’ll find soon enough that I am117Please respect copyright.PENANAR9oypopjm2
innocent on both counts.” Vander said, his voice steady. “I am not surrendering117Please respect copyright.PENANAuUOAGFOW1I
myself to you, I am surrendering myself to Alex as he came here to convince me117Please respect copyright.PENANA3tMWEwZXcC
to turn myself in.” He hoped his words would keep Alex from being punished. “He117Please respect copyright.PENANAX7IEG5P32l
had no part in my escape.”
“Is this true, Captain?” Eric117Please respect copyright.PENANA1lRBFdlQUO
looked over at Alex. Vander prayed the Alex would understand that he was trying117Please respect copyright.PENANA81l9heJxJ4
to save him. Alex took one look at Vander, before nodding to the General. “Very117Please respect copyright.PENANAedILdWF4QC
well. We got what we needed anyway.”
“We will see about that.” Leon117Please respect copyright.PENANAs9NhHioqkm
snarled. “I know you’re guilty and I will prove it.”
“Do whatever you want.” Alex117Please respect copyright.PENANAfMAW1wVd7b
shrugged. Alex placed his hand on Vander’s shoulder. “Up you go, let’s get you117Please respect copyright.PENANAMiS3Vv5wLq
to the castle.”
“I will not risk him escaping117Please respect copyright.PENANArvymGU9ZhS
again.” Eric snapped his fingers. Two soldiers rushed over carrying heavy iron117Please respect copyright.PENANAz3Hc58Mrtn
cuffs. Without a complaint, Vander held his arms out. They were clipped117Please respect copyright.PENANAfqnI6sbu89
securely to him then four guards took positions up on either side of him and117Please respect copyright.PENANAkaP5dVb9Cf
started to march.
He could hear Shea’s panicked117Please respect copyright.PENANAGEQXDmMin0
voice filling his head, but he told her that he would be back soon and not to117Please respect copyright.PENANAmecCtbiF9k
worry, before he shut her out completely.

“Alex,” Vander whispered to his117Please respect copyright.PENANApmaS78gKaq
friend. “Hide the black book. Keep it with you at all times. Let no one else117Please respect copyright.PENANAYWB7ZVpyYk
see it.” Alex nodded before dropping back. Vander held his head high ready to117Please respect copyright.PENANAGbRXKBoWkl
face the music and the weight of his choices.
