[-In the Golden Moon Mansion-]

Unfortunately, Selene wanted to have a peaceful moment and relax herself from the stress she was having recently.

​​

Even her hums were sad enough.

Expressing her own sadness through her hums.

"Thank you for helping me in my bath, Lady Sonja!" Selene started to check the basket handed over by Dalton.

He was one step away from completing his mission.

"No worries … my Luna! Anything for our Luna."

Immediately, it alarmed Selene because Lady Sonja usually corrects herself instantly when she forgets that Selene prefers to be called by her name.

"Come again … Lady Sonja? I didn't hear you last words …" Selene wanted to confirm for the last time while preparing herself.

"I said … anything for … our … Luna!" Dalton repeated.

Then, he swiftly moved and lunged towards Selene.

Fortunately for Selene, despite the best attempt of Dalton to make the swiftest attack … she evaded a lethal blow aimed to her heart.

Repelling Dalton away from her.

But her arm was grazed by the blade of Dalton's weapon.

"Who are you?" Selene demanded from the vampire assassin.

"Your father's grandfather sent me to finish you off!" Dalton answered Selene.

"I will not let you succeed!"

"How will you stop me? You are barely standing."

Despite avoiding a lethal attack from Dalton, the effects of the wolfsbane and the silver nitrate could not be denied.

Her vision were starting to blur.

Before Dalton could even attack further.

The arrival of Booth made it more difficult for him to succeed.

Booth saw Jane's body on the ground.

*** Moments before his arrival ***

"Selene is in danger!" Lucas told Booth and Melody.

"How can we help her? We are trapped in this room." Melody reminded the two with their situation.

"I was avoiding any conflict with the werewolves if I revealed to the Alpha King that I am a hunter. Selene requested for me to keep a low profile so that I would avoid any unnecessary squabble with the Alpha King. But right now … I don't have time to play nice and obedient." Booth expressed his intention to get out from the room which Chloe put them in.

In making sure that the Alpha King won't have to deal with Booth, Chloe kept them inside to avoid any clash with the Alpha King.

But Booth has decided to free themselves with the use of his anti-magic weapon.

"Let me help you. For us to get out of here quickly, we must work together." Lucas offered Booth some help.

"Okay … we will try break out of here. My anti-magic weapon can weaken the effects of the barrier around this room which we are trapped in. After my attempt, use your full power in destroying that door." Booth instructed Lucas.

"Don't worry, leave it to me!" Lucas was intending to impress Melody, his mate.

Melody could sense Lucas' impressive strength and prowess.

As soon as they destroyed the door and broke the barrier placed by Chloe, they rushed towards the location of Selene.

*** Back in Present ***

"Melody … I am leaving this one to you. Lucas … you stay here with Melody just in case of any unexpected enemy." Booth conveyed to the two.

"I am leaving my younger sister to you." Lucas trusted Booth in saving Selene.

Since he cannot leave Melody on her own.

He feared for another threat lurking around.

Just to make sure that Melody won't be harmed, he stayed by her side.

Witnessing Melody's ability to use her voice for healing.

#-Siren's Song-#

Instantly, Jane's wounds were closing.

Reversing the effects of the wound received from Dalton.

Jane remained unconscious but the color on her face looked better.

On the other hand, upon Booth's entrance to the bathroom.

He was surprised and confused to see …

Two Selene on the floor.

"Booth!" Selene calling for her friend.

"Don't listen to her! She is a fake …" Dalton made an attempt to distract Booth even for a second.

And for a second, Booth was confused not knowing what to do.

When he realized to use the vibration of his anti-magic weapon in identifying the vampire.

It was too late.

Dalton swiftly lunged at Booth.

Stabbing him by his side.

"BOOOTTTTHHHH!!!" Selene screamed for Booth's name.

Though, Booth was able to strike back at Dalton.

Unexpectedly for Dalton, the wound from an anti-magic weapon proved for him to be dangerous.

With his wound from Lady Sonja's wolf bite.

Now, his wound from the anti-magic weapon of Booth made him weaker.

Allowing Selene to gather enough power to strike on Dalton.

An electric shock was released by Selene.

-ZAP!-

Blasting her vampire assassin against the wall.

Even though the effects of wolfsbane and the silvernitrate were strong, the amount exposed in her system was not enough to render her unconscious.

Instead of worrying about it, Selene directly went to Booth.

Catching him before he fell to the ground.

"BOOTH!!!"

Booth smiled at Selene.

But there was plenty of blood flowing profusely from his wound.

"I guess … I was right to stay by your side. Or else … something … worse … or unthinkable may have happened to you." Booth was glad to save Selene.

He held her face.

Complimenting the sight of Selene's beauty.

"Right now … I feel like there is an angel holding me tight … worrying for me …"

He continued,

"It's not bad to see you worrying for me time to time … at least I know now … that you care enough and fear of losing me …"

Just before he could utter another word, his hand released Selene's face and lost consciousness.

"BOOTH!!! NO … NO … NO!! BOOTH!!" Selene cried at the sight of Booth possibly dying on her arms.

While she was crying …

King Alcyd witnessed the unexpected care and worry of Selene towards Booth.

He clenched his fist in anger.

The Alpha King thought, Selene must not care or worry for any other man aside from him.

Kratos was begging to take over and finish Booth off.

A raging jealousy has invaded the senses of the Alpha King.
