84. Where it Began 

LEO. 

“I remember this place.” Jin said quietly, looking around. It was me, Azura, Jax and Dan as well. Ace and Li Sheng were still trying to track down Judah. 

We had come fully equipped just in case  shit went down and I had Azura with us. I  would not risk anything and intended to ask Raihana or maybe even Delsanra to  place a protective spell around her, just in  case something happened. I needed her and our pup safe. 

“Who doesn’t?” I replied to Jin. We spoke quietly, yet our voices seemed to echo  through the dark tunnels, bouncing off the walls and reaching our ears. 

It had taken us two hours to get here, and now, with each passing moment, that dark feeling of foreboding grew. I looked  around the darkness. I could still feel the  darkness hanging in the air… as if a shadow of her presence remained within these caverns. 

My gaze went to the far wall. Just when  we turned a bend, I remember when she had created a child Wendigo… Yet even as  a monster; the child was a child… its eerie  wailing chilled me to the core, and I  remember her throwing it against the  wall and killing it… spreading blood and  guts across that entire wall… 3 

I had to clean it… 

When people hear that I have a sharp memory and can remember pretty much  everything, they say I’m lucky or are  simply impressed… sometimes…  sometimes forgetting things is a  blessing… 

“Leo.” Azura’s voice pulled me from the  darkest corners of my mind, and I  exhaled slowly. 

I tried to get rid of the dark, damp smell  that filled my nose, a smell I was so used to while growing up. 

Jax scuffed his foot over the floor, and I saw a bone beneath his feet. “This place is hidden by magic, but it’s a shame it’s not fucking burned down.” 

“Didn’t the Lycan king try to destroy it?” Jin asked, looking around slowly. 

“I don’t know… I didn’t want to know…” I  murmured. The caverns had a few  entrances but only our pack really knew those, and some were extremely hard to  get to, or even blocked. 

Like the one I had helped Delsanra escape  through all those years ago. 

Dan frowned, scanning the paths ahead.” I don’t think any amount of magic or power could destroy this place… Can you guys not feel the heaviness in the air? Darkness and evil remain here…” 

“Then is it fucking smart to be down  here? Don’t want to disturb anything.” 

Jax added, kicking some bones out of his  way. 

I raised an eyebrow. I thought he didn’t fucking want to disturb shit. 

“Scared?” Dan grinned, looking at Jax.
