Epilogue

  Meeka dove into the trees as she tried running to help pick Cage up when there came an explosion. She tripped, rolled into the trees and blacked out as her head slammed against a rock.

  The first class sorcerer General Adair and his Familiar Colm continued at a slower pace, waiting for another foolish attempt when he saw tons and tons of rocks slide down. He thought his explosion caused a landslide and moved up to where the cave once was and smiled as he saw blood on the rocks. He sent a spell, seeking the mage he felt the magic from earlier and couldn’t find a trace. He knew he killed the man who got in the way. He saw a small group enter a cave, but if he couldn’t sense the mage he knew others wouldn’t have survived the cave-in.

  “General!” Someone yelled and the mage turned around to find a group of soldiers huddled around a section of the devastation he caused in destroying his prey. His Familiar brought him closer to see what they were looking at.

  “Good work, men. She will fetch a great rate. Lock her up with the better stock. We don’t want her harmed before she puts coin in our pockets. Make sure she isn’t passed around among the men unless the brothels allow it.” He waived his staff over her. “There, if anyone tries to force themselves on the whore I’ll know and kill them. A beauty like her was worth following these savages.”

  “We couldn’t agree more, Sir.” A man said and they grabbed Meeka, clasped shackles on her and brought her into camp and chained her to the other two women they caught.

  “Their now sister, wake up.” Meeka heard and sat up suddenly.

  Meeka looked around as darkness fell. She felt her heavy arms and found them bound in irons. She looked around and said “What?”

  “Quiet over there!” A man in armor commanded and took off his whip and snapped it right beside Meeka. She cowered back.

  She shook slightly, quickly realizing she had been captured. In a low voice she asked “Are there any others?”

  “I know of only the three of us, Sister Meeka. They caught us after we tried getting away from the blast. They used a net on us. We couldn’t kill any… Can you tell us anything? Is the chief and priestess alive. For it to only be us three they must have done something to get away.”

  “I don’t know. I hit my head right after the explosion and woke up here.”

  The three went quiet after that, reflecting on what awaited them.

  “Is there any hope?” The younger warrior asked.

  “If Cage and Brooke still live, which I feel in my heart they are, then I know they will do whatever it takes to save us. To do that we need to be alive. And as Brooke told me, in absence of a chief, priestess or elder, the mate of the chief is allowed to give orders. Listen to me, Sisters. We need to be alive for them to save us. With a mage and all these soldiers around we will regret any resistance. Will you follow me and stay alive so our loved ones can save us?”

  “We will. I can endure whatever these dishonorable and stupid men have in mind for us. If hope means waiting I’ll do whatever is necessary.”

  “I’m with you too, Sister.” The other warrior whispered.

  Good. Meeka thought as she met the eyes of soldiers and didn’t have any choice except to ignore their leers and rude comments.

  Brooke, Cage, come save me. I’ll stay alive for as long as I can until I can see your two smiling faces and be in each of your arms again. I love you both so hurry.
