Forever in the Past and Forever in the Future

Chapter 14

Lenora's POV

Musu and I meet in my office fifteen minutes after I mind link her to let her know we have new information and need her help immediately. She is dressed casually, a light blue tank top and white jeans. The combination makes her deep complexion look even darker. She has her hair wrapped in a blue and white silk scarf, hiding her beautiful twisted black hair.

"I apologize for my appearance, Beta. I wasn't expecting to leave the house today, but since Marco got called in, I got dressed quickly and came here with him," her dark wide-set eyes are filled with an unneeded apology.

“It's alright, Musu. I am appreciative that you even agreed right now," I praise her in return, “So here's what the Alpha told me. He wants information on a group called The Feral and the leader of the group. A woman named Cora, who may have magical abilities. He didn't say she is a witch, but maybe?”

"I don't know about the name Cora, but I think I saw a book in Alpha Bronx's private library that referenced Agrios. I know it's an old Greek word, hmm let me do a quick internet search," she flips open her laptop and starts typing. After a moment, she turns the screen toward me, "The word itself means wild or savage, but in Greek mythology, there was a Gigantes created to fight the Olympian gods during the Giant War, named Agrios. He was supposed to replace the Moirai, who are more commonly known as The Fates. It never came to be because someone killed Agrios during the

war.

"Okay. I will look into the definition side, you look further into the mythology side. Look for any covens or witch subcultures that somehow identify with the Gigante or maybe even the Fates.,” I write some notes on my notepad, “Bronx has restricted the fifth floor today, so no getting into his library.” 1

"I can make do, Beta. Mind if I sit at the conference table?”

“Have at it, Musu. Let's regroup in forty-five minutes. Thank you again for coming in at the last minute," I turn to my laptop to get started.

Musu doesn't get up. I look back to her to see she has a concerned look on her face, “Is everything alright?" “I don't mean to overstep, but now that we have found the Luna, do you think it is a good time to discuss the video with Alpha Bronx?”
