Klaus

"Amy? Amy look at me."

Her tired grey eyes find mine and the rocking stops.

"Who is Serkan?"

"My father but not my father." She mumbles

'We are not getting anywhere with this.' Xavi mutters through the link. I think she might be beyond the point of saving, Klaus.

'I don't believe that.' Xavi has been great with the advice and maybe I should learn my lesson. I tried to help Eris and that backfired. But something about Amy told me not to leave her here.

He studies me with his amber eyes and sighs. 'Okay."

*Amy," I mutter, turning my attention back to her. "Amy, who is the man pretending to be your father?"

*A very bad man!" She practically spits the words as her lip curls up.

'An imposter?' Xavi asks as I spot Orion writing on the wall with his blood again.

We have to go!' Was written in large capital letters as he aggressively pointed in the direction of the stairs.

"Brax will keep her safe," I tell him.

He points at his words again.

*Noise," I mutter. "We need to bring Thalia to us. Give them time to figure something out. Lure her here." Xavi starts to howl as Orion stares at us with wide eyes. He tries to cover Xavi's snout and silence him. *Orion. Xavi and I are the Witch Hunters, we need her to come to us."

I turn back to Amy. She has her hands pressed against her ears. Her eyes are closed as she rocks.

As Xavi continues to howl, I press myself against the door to Amy's cell. "Amy, do you remember your daughter, Samara?"

*Sam...Sammie....Samara. Just a tiny baby." She was completely out of touch with time.

"She's not a baby anymore. She lives in a safe place, with your niece."

*The last female Alpha." She mutters. "She's just a baby."

*No. They are grown up."

Footsteps could be heard above us, thudding along the ceiling and making their way to the stairs.

"Lycans," Amy whispers with her grey eyes on the ceiling. "Lycans are coming."

Orion backs up next to me as Xavi growls.

Footsteps move down the stone stairs until the men appear on the other side of the thick cloud. At least twelve of them. They look up and down the corridor but don't see us behind the thick cloud of magic.

"Move you fools!" A woman yells out

They divide for her, allowing her to move through the centre of them. Her thick tight curls bounce as she struts. Lilac eyes glow in the light, yet the shadows cast an eerie glow across her golden skin.

She holds up a hand and a ball of fire quickly appears.

'It won't hurt us.' Xavi mutters, refusing to move. 'She knows she can't throw it through the cloud.

"Who are you?!" She demands as she glares at Xavi

I feel his annoyance through our bond.

*You are not poor, little Indy. Who the hell are you?"

He glares at her. How could she not remember who she put a curse on? Unless that was the problem, she had done it to so many people that she couldn't remember.

When she doesn't get an answer, she chuckles. "Your friends are about to be crushed and you are making me miss it!*

Her eyes move to each one of us. She settles on Orion. "So loyal to one another, yet you abandon her in her time of need." She bounces the ball of fire in her hand. "Would you like to watch?"

She waits a second for an answer and laughs. "Oh I forgot, you cannot talk anymore."

"I will kill you," I mutter, glaring at her.

"Ha!" she shakes her head. "Why do you think you can when no one else has succeeded? Your Hunter friend. Wolves. Lycans. Pathetic little Witches. You are all weak. You will die here. Your bodies will rot in this very spot and no one will ever be able to find you."

She looks directly at me. "No one leaves White Cliffs unless I say so."

*What about Silas?" I needed to buy the others as much time as possible.

Her eyes narrow to slits. "He had one job to do. Bring me that shitty little Kitson."
