Chapter 555

*I hear you. But something isn’t adding up.”

“What?”

*Silas told me that there was uproar when Serkans granddaughter linked the Lycans.”

“There was.”

*Serkan wouldn’t let anyone leave?” I quiz

*He freaked out. There were a lot who died that day. Because for some reason Thalia’s spell glitched.”

*So for some, they saw what White Cliffs was really like, they didn’t die during the riots?”

Indy and Orion shake their heads at me. “Serkan shifted and killed a whole bunch of them so word wouldn’t spread. Thalia convinced all the remaining people that it was in their imaginations. Then they went back to acting like everything was normal. Well, if you can consider what she is doing as normal.”

“No one has that much power.” I mutter

*She gets stronger all the time. We know that if we don’t get out of here, that we are going to die. We both know that if we stay, it is our fate. She’s buying time, making me suffer because she knows I want Silas back. She cut out Orion’s tongue to stop him talking to anyone. The next step for us both is death.”

“Do you have a phone I could use?” Mine was still with my discarded clothes on the other side of the river. I expect if they have been spotted, Thalia will think the river took me

*You need to call someone?” She tilts her head to one side.

“I do.”

*Silas?” She asks hopefully as Orion places a phone in my hand. “I would love to hear his voice.”

“No, this is someone that might be able to help me deal with your Witch problem.” I had sworn I would only call him in an emergency while he was off finding himself. But this was something he needed to handle, after all, it was what he was born to do even if he hadn’t figured it all out and thankfully, I had the number memorised.

Serkan is a secondary problem. We need to deal with Thalia first and then all the people might just go to the true leader. Neah.

Three rings and he answers. “Abraxas.” His voice echoes through the phone.

“Ah, so you do answer when people contact you.” I knew Dane had been trying to get hold of Klaus.

“If you are calling me, you must have a reason. Dane just wants to check in.” Klaus mutters. He sounded different to the guy that had been living in Black Shadow. “How can I help?”

“I will get straight to the point. I am in White Cliffs, and there is a little bit of a problem with a Witch here.”

Indy has wide eyes as she watches me whereas Orion has wandered off to another room.

*You are in White Cliffs?” Klaus mutters in surprise

“It’s a long story, I don’t want to bore you much. But yes, I am here and I have a problem that I don’t think I can deal with on my own. The Witch is powerful. She controls more than what I expected.” I may be on the ball, but even I knew when I was in over my head.

*Can you not handle it?” He almost sounded cold

“I will give you a quick run down.” I mutter. “She is in some ways like Cooper and has managed to convince Danes ‘twin that they are mates. It’s a lie,” I add when Indy stares at me, “In fact his true mate is here with me now. The Witch seems to have a lot more power than Cooper and is able to contorl more than I originally thought. I’m

hoping you have learned something while you are off gallivanting.”

There’s a pause. “By any chance is the Witch called Thalia?” Her name rolls from his tongue with a lot of spite. What had happened to make him change so much in such a short space of time.

“Yes.” It was my turn to be surprised. “You know her?”

“Yes.” He growls through the phone. I don’t think I have ever heard Klaus growl at anything other than me calling him surfer boy.

“What did she do to you?”

“I will tell you when I see you!”
