The mansion gives off an spooky feeling at night. The halls seem darker and anything that sounds creepy makes me jump. We follow Seth with no problems. Sean scans each hall we walk in even though Seth gives the ok. Skylar keeps looking back towards Roman and frowns when I tell her to look ahead. Seth halts and everyone stops. He motions for us to get against the wall and be quiet. We do as he says and another creature with a scythe glides across the hall in front of us. After waiting five minutes, we start walking again. We enter a large gym area and Seth halts. Roman shuts the door behind us and Seth relaxes.
"We will be entering leviathan's lair in a couple of doors. He's going to be asleep so I think only a couple of us should get your cousin," Seth states looking at each of us.
"Who?" Sean asks looking at the four of us.
"I will go and Caroline should as well," Seth states and Roman growls. I jump as Roman pulls me behind him.
"Over my dead..." Roman starts but Seth interrupts,
"She has the most fire power and the best eyes. One of us needs to stay here with these two. Sean is to trigger happy and sky is a 16 year old virgin. Leviathan will try and eat her then and there."
I raise an eyebrow at the virgin comment but brush it off.
"Let's go," I say dodging Romans hand that was going to grab me. Roman looks to Seth and he slowly nods as if receiving a hidden message. Seth leads the way through the gym door into a pool area. It's Olympic sized with greenish water.
"After this is all over you are to run as far away from here as you can. Do you understand me?" Seth says and I nod. Something seems off about him but I leave it be. We leave the pool area and enter another hall. A woman with white blond hair was leaning against a wall and Seth froze.
"Well, well, well. Isn't it one of the hounds," she smiled and all I saw was pointed teeth. I took a step back and her purple eyes landed on me.
"What do you want Lilith?" Seth asked. His voice screamed confidence but his stance showed fear.
"To marry, have a child, the whole picket fence thing, but I'll settle for the human you have with you," Lilith states her grin widening if that was even possible.
"She is already claimed," Seth said and I look at him confused.
"Oh really? Her scent says otherwise. I could think of many fun things to do with that body of hers," Lilith says licking her lips. This is the first time in 24 years I wish i didn't have curves. Seth must have realized my disgust because he choked down a laugh.
"Roman claims her," Seth said.
"Her scent..." Lilith started but Seth finishes.
"She just showered. He will claim her fully later." Lilith pouts and crossed her arms. I jump as something brushes against my leg. I look down to see a large snake curling up my leg. I pull out my gun to shoot it when Seth grabs my hand.
"Call off you snakes!" Seth snaps. Lilith tilts her head to the side and the snake rubs its head against my ass. I thank every god I can think of that I am wearing jeans.
"Why? She smells so sweet. Like candy," her voice lowers and her eyes darken. Seth grabs the snakes head and Lilith squeals.
"Let go of my baby!" She yells dashing forward as Seth squeezes harder. Lilith freezes as blood trickles from the snake.
"Call off your snakes," Seth says slowly. Lilith snarles but the snakes move away from me. Seth lets go of the snake and it slithers towards Lilith. Her purple eyes glance towards me again and Seth moves to stand in front of me.
"I will have her," Lilith hisses the disappears. I shiver and start heading towards the door with Seth behind me. He opens the door and I walk into a room with a large whale like creature in the center. Slime covers the wall and several tentical a are sprawled around the room. I start to call out Brett's name and Seth covers my mouth with his hand. I glare at him from the corner of my eyes but he points to the beast. He places his finger over his lips signaling me to be quiet and I nod as he removes his hand. We walk around on the slim coated floor, only to keep getting stuck. In the corner of the room is a massive blob. I walk towards it and notice it's moving. Seth come up behind me holding a knife. He hands it to me and takes out another. He then starts cutting at the blob and I start to help. After ten minutes I see Brett's face. I hold in my surprise and start cutting faster. A rumble is heard behind me so I stop and turn to look. Two tenticals are aiming at me and Seth deflects them.
"He's up! Hurry up and cut him out!" Seth yells attacking the thing. I do as he says and Brett tumbles out of his cacoon unconscious.
"I got him," I yell grabbing Brett's arm putting it around my shoulder. A tentical hits me in the stomach and I go flying into a wall.
"Shit! Caroline are you ok?" Seth yells trying to get to me. I wanted to yell at him but I just glared as I tried to catch my breath. I stood up and almost groaned when I noticed I was covered in slime. I limped back over to Brett and grabbed him again. Seth quickly took Brett's other arm and we took off towards the exit. We got pushed from behind and went flying into the pool in the next room.
