My heart was thundering in my ears, the image of the warriors’ dead bodies circling in front of my eyes vividly. How could Satan kill all of those innocent warriors just like that? How could someone be so cruel and heartless?

“Will Riya be fine? Satan will bring her here unharmed, right?” Freya asked. In the soft glow of her honey-toned eyes, concern and doubt danced like shadows. She was the youngest High-Witch among the six High-Witches.

“I don’t trust Satan but I trust the Moon Goddess and she won’t let a pure soul get hurt who has been so kind to everyone,” I assured her and she nodded her head, a small smile stretching her lips.

“Moon Goddess has blessed her bloodline so she must protect her as well,” Tory remarked with pride. She had unwavering faith in Riya and the Moon Goddess. All of us had been waiting impatiently for Satan’s return. Prescott was pacing around the hall, peeking out of the window from time to time to see any sign of Satan’s arrival to no avail. Dylan was in a fit of rage, banging his head against the bars and screaming to let him get out. He had gained no strength from Satan as he hadn’t fed for over a week but Satan’s command had pushed his limits and he was no longer sane.

Doctor Zeph attended to Owen’s wounds and treated him as his healing powers had weakened and he didn’t want me to heal him. Mom insisted but he denied her offer as well.

Since Dad’s return, Mom had been calmer and starting to accept the fate of her daughters. Dad was there to comfort her whenever she stressed herself and I was relieved to see that he was back to his old self after healing. He had recovered completely and all the signs of Dylan’s torture and his trauma had disappeared.
