Sirena’s face popped into my head.

Help. Please. Seth. Help me.

I couldn’t see where she was, only that she was hurting. Her pain ripped through my body, letting me know she wasn’t on a pleasure cruise. Then, more. Darkness. So much of it.

Finally.

I staggered to my feet.

“What is it?” Stitches demanded, holding Sin’s hand, his jacket now over Sin’s body to keep him warm.

“I-I need to find Rinny. I need Rinny. S-stay with him. I’ll get her.” I stumbled out of the mausoleum and into the night air, my body feeling like a fire had been lit inside it.

“Did you see where she was?” Bryce demanded, coming out from behind me.

I shook my head, my hands on my knees.

He was quiet for a moment before he finally spoke.

“I think I know where they are.”

I straightened, giving him the benefit of the doubt. He was a shadow, after all, and had been proving his worth.

“Let’s go,” I said, breaking into a run next to him, my soul on fire.

It was justlike Bryce thought. The clearing.

Night had fallen, but I could easily make out Adam on top of Sirena in the same spot as he’d hurt her before.

White hot rage soared through my body. It was doubled when I felt Asylum rear his head within me.

We burst into the clearing, my fist making contact with the side of Adam’s head in a sickening crack. He fell off her and fumbled to put his dick away as Bryce rushed to pull her to safety.

“Hey, welcome to the party,” he spat at me. “So you know, we’re down a member. I killed Sinclair not long ago.”

“We’re about to be down two then because you’re next,” I snarled back.

He let out a laugh. “I was just about to fuck your girl. Again. That’s gotta suck to know I’ve had my dick in her more than you have.”

I tore into him, beating him until he was on his knees, his face bloody and his chest heaving with each breath he tried to rake in through his broken ribs. I circled him, noting Sirena was moving against Bryce, and he was trying to hold her back.

“Let her go,” I whispered, feeling her monster stir around us. “It’s time.”

Bryce released her, and she came over to stand beside me. Her small body trembled, and she had a cut across her chest and a bruise forming along her cheek.

“Hello, little monster,” I whispered, adjusting my rabbit mask.

“Seth,” she answered back, her voice shaking slightly.

“We always knew it would come to this,” I said, staring down at Adam who swayed on his knees, clearly a little knocked out of his head from my hits. “Asylum is coming.”

“Good.” Her words came out softly. “I want him to be here for this next part.”

I felt her doubts floating around us.

“You’re brave, Sirena. You always have been. It’s time to take control of everything,” I said, taking her hand in mine and lifting it to my lips where I kissed her knuckles. “We’re right here with you.”
