The Alpha's Curse The Enemy Within

Sheila's point of view
I lowered my speed on my horse as I approached the Council's castle. My blue eyes narrowed as I scanned through the few
warriors and elders scattered around the woods. I pulled my horse to a halt, alighting from it. What the hell happened?
I went to the woods, searching for Killian. I hadn't gotten far into the woods when my blue eyes fell on Valerie, she was standing
under a tree, and Kaiser was with her.
I rushed to them. "Kai," I embraced him, moving over to Valerie. "Oh Val, it's good to have you back," I embraced her, pulling
away and she fixed her purple eyes to the direction of my voice. "How did it go?" I rushed, asking.
She released a small smile. "Good. We found Shota's remains, and we are only a step away from finding out who the vessel is."
"That's great. With everything happening, we need to know who's got this demon now," Kaiser voiced, pulling his hazel gaze into
the woods.
I drew closer, following his gaze. "What happened? Where's Killian, he said he had news on the symbols we found last night."
"Those," he pointed out using his finger, and my eyes fell on one of the symbols we found last night, also engraved on a tree. I
moved slowly to the tree, my fingers gently tracing it. "How...How is it—" I could barely complete my words, feeling Kaiser's
presence behind me.
