Dane
Samara is sitting in the back of her cell as I enter the dungeons. Her knees are pulled up tight to her chest as she tries to hide her face from me.
“She stopped crying a little while ago.” Damien tells me. He is sitting on a stool at the far end. “But she’s clearly shifted again at some point. More claw marks.” He points to the top of her cell. “Is the bastard dead?”
I shake my head, “It’s a little more complicated.”
Stopping outside of her cell, I observe the deep claw marks. They were all focussed around the top of her cell. Almost like she is trying to dig a way out. She will have a hard job, inside the cement is more bars. I wasn’t letting someone else escape.
“My brother is alive isn’t he? He was here and now he is not.” She whispers though she continues to keep her face covered by her arms, like she was hiding something.
“You tell me. It seems that you have been lying Samara. Do you even know how to tell the truth?” I ask
“I’m not….”
“Cut the bullshit. I know you are behind everything. Why did you want Blair to bring you here? Who are you after?”
“I came for help. That’s true.”
“If you continue to lie I’m going to open this cell and run this blade from your neck to your navel. Very, very fucking slowly.” I hold the blade up to show her and she finally raises her head to look at me. Slow healing claw marks littered her face.
Her eyes drift to the blade, “You can’t hurt me with that.”
“Don’t test me.”
She shakes her head, “You literally can’t. There are marks on the handle. Marks that mean it can’t touch my flesh.”
I look at the handle. She wasn’t wrong. Strange marks had been carved into the wood. “Why?”
She shrugs her shoulders at me. “Coop made it for me to use. It was so I could protect myself but it could never be used against me. Though, he never actually let me use it. Decided I wouldn’t need protection when I had him.”
“Protect yourself against who?”
She drops her head forward on to her knees and doesn’t answer.
“Samara!”
She remains silent. I was on the verge of ripping her cell door open and testing out her theory until I remembered what Klaus had said. If she got out, it would be a bloodbath. Yet I still didn't know why.
“Everyone and no one.” she whispers
“What does that mean?” Damien edges forward. “How can you need protection from everyone and no one at the same time?”
“From yourself? Is that who you are talking about? Or are you talking about Cooper and his projection abilities.” I demand
Her grey eyes are wide as they flicker up to mine. “He’s mastered it?”
‘Is this a trick?’ Damien links me
‘I don’t know’
Samara scowls into her legs. Her mouth opens and closes like she couldn’t find the right words to say. “If he has mastered it after all this time…. I don’t know what will happen now.”

Next chapter??? Must know what happens!!...
These new chapters ate shorter than paragraphs. Makes reading this story quite annoying at the moment...
So... after 546 now what? I know this cannot just be the end of the story? So when is there a new chapter? I've literally read this in 4 days!...
Hi, I’m usually a silent reader, and first of all, I love the story, but is it possible to avoid the blue texts? Cuz a lot of us are missing a lot of the story due to the texts not loading. I am missing a lot no matter have many times I try to reload. If not, that’s okay as well. Thank you for the amazing entertainment and content...
Loving this story! Can’t wait for you to add more 😁...
Is it just me or are the blue text not loading and every other time I try the captcha it pops up a new tab? Other than that live the story...
