I turned to Alpha Ba stien who looked pale but determined at the same time. There were a lot of questions. that we both had, but I had a feeling we weren’t going to get them from Rachel. She was clearly traumatized and speaking in circles.

She kept murmuring something that neither of us could understand and she was continuously rocking back and forth. It was obvious that she wasn’t in the right state of mind.

“Rachel, we need to find out where Lila is. Is there anything you can tell us that could be helpful?” I found myself asking anyway, knowing she wasn’t going to say much of anything.

She kept shaking her head as she sobbed.

“Alpha, should we lock her up?” Jake asked, staring warily at Rachel.

I looked at Bastien again; I didn’t have the answers. But I didn’t think Rachel killed these people out of her own free will. I don’t think she killed her father on purpose. When I looked back at Rachel, I saw that she was now looking at me.

“The… voice…” she murmured, her eyes looking scarily ghostly. I knew she wasn’t fully there, but her words struck a chord with my wolf. He was listening to her intently. I narrowed my eyes at her and bent down so I was at eye level.

“What voice?” I asked firmly, but not too firm where I’d scare her silent.

“It was in my head…” she whispered. She was staring at nothing in particular; her lip quivered, and I knew she was about to start sobbing again. “It told me to do awful things… It hurt so bad…”

“Do you know who was in control of that voice?” I asked; maybe we were getting somewhere after all.

She thought about it for a moment before shaking her head rapidly.

“No… no…no….” she cried in her lap.

“Okay, that’s okay, Rachel,” I said, trying to be reassuring, but the energy was so high that I couldn’t get my voice to sound compassionate. I was pissed and it was clear in my tone. “Do you know why it made you do those things?”

She was quiet for a moment; I didn’t think she was going to respond, but she lifted her head and stared at me through her unshed tears.

“Darkness needed to feed…” she whispered hoarsely. “It can’t survive long if it doesn’t feed.”

Those people she killed at the school must have been sacrifices to the darkness to keep it around and

strong. I shuddered at the thought of Lila being next on its list. But it was odd that she wasn’t here and that they took her away.

“Do you know why they wanted Lila?” I found myself asking.

“Vessel…” she whispe red.

Then she began to sob again, and her entire body jolted and shivered.
