Chapter 700 - 117- Trinity - Exiting Purgatory (VOLUME 4)

~~

Trinity

~~

After several minutes of running full out on the moving bridge that I had made, I could finally see the door in the distance. And, of course, that meant that I could also see the massive Greek warrior that was Alexio. 

I know that it was just a trick of the light or my imagination, one of the two, but it almost seemed like Alexio was even larger than he had been before. He looked like a massive, and deadly, giant that was standing guard over his golden goose at the very top of the beanstalk. If he started to talk in rhymes when I got closer to him and spoke about smelling my blood, then I was going to call bullshit on this entire thing. That would just be too off the wall for me right now.

Whether he was straight out of mother goose's book of tales or not, I needed to get past him and get the golden goose. The golden goose, in this case, being the door out of Purgatory. It shouldn't be too hard to do that, should it?

"Queen Trinity, I see the door." Rudy called out to me as if I hadn't already seen the thing standing off in the distance.

"But it's surrounded by the big bad monster guard." Zachary added from his place in my arms. "What are you going to do, Mommy?" He asked me, amazing me again with how much better he and the other two had gotten with their talking.

"I will think of something, baby. Don't you worry. Mommy will think of something to get us out of here." I patted him on the back as I spoke. I was trying to calm him down and comfort him as best as I could.

Once we got a little closer to the door, it was very easy for me to see that Alexio had spotted us in the sky. His eyes were trained on the spot that was just in front of me at all times, or that's what it felt like as his eyes followed me along the path.

Now that the monster of a man knew where I was, where we all were, I could see an evil sneer spread across his face. He was both excited to see me and fight me, but also angry and pissed off because I was ruining the order of the underworld or some stupid shit like that. I had been through so much since I had gotten here, so much that I didn't even want to think about it all, and it wasn't even over yet.

"I SEE YOU, SELF-PROCLAIMED GODDESS! YOU CANNOT ESCAPE FROM ALEXIO PTOLEMY!" His bellowed voice was even louder than before. And I heard it perfectly clear from all the way over here.

I chose to ignore him. I didn't want to respond to him right now because I didn't want to take my mind off the plan that I was formulating. But also, I didn't want to dignify his attitude with a response.

The plan that I had was not much of one, but it was all I could think of right now. I didn't know how else I was going to get past the beast of a man and avoid the beast of a demon monster behind me. And I had to do all that while protecting the four people that were counting on me. There was just way too much for me to deal with right now.

I was going to have the moving wind bridge take us directly to the door. While we ran, the bridge would propel us through his legs and right into the door. I needed to time this perfectly, or it would not work at all.

I had confidence that it would work. Or at least blind optimism that was bordering on insanity. It was all that I could come up with in the limited amount of time that I had. And there truly was a possibility that it might work. Just a little, itty bitty tiny speck of dust sized chance. But that was still a chance, nonetheless.

"Queen Trinity, why is the bridge lowering? Why is it going toward the ground?" I could hear Rudy's fear and shock as he started to panic behind me. "The bridge is taking us right toward Alexio. Why? What is going on?"

"It's not taking us to Alexio, it's taking us to the door behind him. It just so happens that the path to the door is between his feet." I didn't want to do this anymore than he did, but I didn't see any other way to the door. He would get us very easily if we went through the air around him. Going through his feet would throw him off balance and give us a chance.

"I AM GOING TO DESTROY YOU HERE AND NOW, FAKE GODDESS! I AM GOING TO RETURN ORDER TO THIS REALM!" Alexio was still yelling at us while we approached him fast. I didn't even pay any attention though. I didn't want to stop listening to the hell snake approaching me from behind. "YOU WILL REGRET THE DAY THAT YOU EVER MESSED WITH ME, ALEXIO PTOLE-!" Alexio faltered and stopped speaking for a moment before he bellowed at me again. "YOU BROUGHT A HELL SNAKE TO BATTLE ME! ARE YOU TOO FRIGHTENED TO FIGHT ME ON YOUR OWN?! YOU ARE PATHETIC, FAKE GODDESS. UTTERLY PATHETIC!"

Wait a minute. Did he just say what I think he said? Did he just tell me that 'I' brought the snake to fight 'him'? Did he seriously just lay the blame on me? And if that were the case, did that mean that he wasn't the one that sent the monster after me? Well, I guess the only way that I would know for sure would be to ask him for myself.

"ALEXIO!" I screamed his name. "DID YOU NOT SEND THE HELL SNAKE AFTER ME? AND THE HELLHOUND AS WELL? WAS IT NOT YOU THAT SENT THE BEASTS AFTER US TO PUNISH ME FOR THE CRIMES THAT YOU THINK I HAVE COMMITTED?" I spoke as loud and clear as I could. I made sure that he heard everything that I just said.

"WHY WOULD I, ALEXIO PTOLEMY, NEED TO SEND A HELL SNAKE OR A HELLHOUND TO DO MY BIDDING? I AM MORE THAN STRONG ENOUGH TO TAKE YOU ON. I NEED NOT RESORT TO SUCH TRICKERY AND COWARDICE."

Well, if that were true, then I guess that only left one person, one culprit for who it was that sent these things after me and the others. There was only one other person in all of the underworld that was actively trying to destroy me.

I was pretty sure that there were more than just the two people out to get me. Those two being Hekate and Alexio. I was sure that Solanum and Edmond were here, and possibly the handful of other people who I had executed or killed personally. I was sure that all of them probably wanted a taste of my blood and a piece of my soul for their trophy. I wouldn't let them have it though. Not them. Not Alexio.. And definitely not Hekate.

Status: Ongoing Author:

Eighteen-year-old Trinity is unlike any other werewolf in her pack. For one, there were unusual circumstances surrounding her birth, for another, she is the only pack member to never shift into a wolf form. So now she doesn't quite belong anywhere. Not quite human and not quite wolf.

She thought she would be able to live her life how she wanted when she had turned eighteen. Go to college, make some friends, have some fun. But what is she to do when the dangerously sexy Alpha literally falls right into her lap?

"I am not human, and I am not a wolf. I don't belong anywhere..."
"...we both know that no one is going to mate with me, and even if they did, they would just reject me anyway."

What is the sexy, brooding Alpha going to do? The elders are making him hold these ridiculous parties to search for a mate. He doesn't want a mate, but he knows he needs a mate to finish the Alpha Circle. Without a mate, a Luna for the pack, his people would suffer. And what is he going to do when he stumbles across the girl that fate has chosen for him and he finds out she has no wolf?

"This cannot be!" I roared. "There is no way that I can mate with a girl that does not even have a wolf. She will be too weak. She will be inferior. She will not be strong enough to be a Luna."
"I simply could not accept her as my mate. Not fully. It wasn't safe for her. She would get herself killed. And she would bring my pack down with her."

When these two meet, sparks will surely fly. But will it be from passion, or their constant fighting? Neither of them wanted a mate. Neither of them wants the mate that fate chose for them. And neither of them can make that mate bond go away. What are they going to do now that they're literally stuck with each other?
