"What is it?" Harley asked, walking into the living room, hand in hand with Marietta.
"Look," Zack said as he used his head to direct both Harley and Marietta's attention up at what was displayed on the screen.
"Isn't that Thalia and Silas, how did you get this?" Harley asked, looking at Ann.
" It came along with the detailed video I was showing June of our earlier encounter with the Laufey pack and this showed up.
"Oh my moon goodness, what the fuck did she drink."
"Ugh, why did she do her eyes and neck like that? That's so gross."
"Then don't look at it," Lexy said and slapped June's hand off her shoulder.
Harley stared at what was displayed on the screen. It suddenly stopped and the screen turned into a blur when she was screaming.
"Shit, what was that?"
"Don't know, but wait, we can see it but not hear anything, is that normal?"
"No, we are meant to see and hear everything." Anna replied, "Something must be wrong with it,"
"What's that?" Harley asked, looking up at something on the screen.
"What's what?" Anna asked, looking in his direction.
"Is that, is the mute?"
They all looked at the screen and saw something on the screen.
"Oh, I think it is," Anna replied and clicked on it, only to hear an ear-piercing scream.
Anna immediately clicked on it back and the screaming stopped.
"What was that, I think I've gone deaf!?" Zack asked, trying to hear himself.
Marietta couldn't hear anything except a ringing in her ear.
"Gosh, would you stop yelling!?"
"What!?"
"Stop yelling, you idiot!"
"I should stop yelling!?"
"Yes, we can hear a bit better now, so stop yelling."
"Oh, it is better now."
"Dummy," Lexy replied under her breath.
"Heard that."
"Don't care."
"Can you two just shut up," Harley said feeling frustrated.
"But he started it."
"Lexy shit it."
"But…"
"Shut it, thank you. Now what are we going to do about this?"

The Laufey pack. Silas's room
***
Lolla walked into Slilas's room with some cuts visible on her face and body.
"Baby, where did you go? Both you and your mother left us with those things." Lolla asked, walking toward Silas.
"We had something to talk about."
"Can you tell me, I heard a faint scream, earlier was that you or someone else?"
"You heard it?"
"Did anyone else hear it?"
"No, I don't think so. My hearing is sharper than others, so I can hear the smallest noises."
"Oh, I see."
Silas looked at Lolla and thought to himself, "This could help me later, should I tell her about it, how do I know to trust her? She might backstab and take it for herself, she is pretty well known for a lot of shady things after all. I'll just wait until I can trust her with it."
"What's wrong, why are you staring at me like that?"
"Huh? Sorry, I was lost in thoughts." Lolla asked, moving closer to Silas and holding his face.
Silas smiled and made her sit on his lap, "Nothing to worry about that pretty little head of yours."
Lolla blushed at that.
"That's right, her way of thinking is very little, and she is in love with me, which means I can make her do anything I want. Oh, I'm a genius." Silas thought to himself looking at Lolla and kissing her.

Thalia's room
***
"What happened?"
"What do you mean what happened? Nothing happened."
"Thalia, the scent in here is different, what did you drink?"
"You can smell that?"
"Of course, I can smell it, I have a sharp nose, remember?"
"Oh, right yeah, I forgot about that. Well, you don't need to worry about it, everything's good now." Thalia said with a smile on her face and turned back to look out the window.
"Thalia, really?"
"Everything's fine Chris, you don't need to worry."
"I just want to know, did Silas see everything?"
"Well, maybe."
"Oh my goodness, for the love of biscuits, why did you let him see!?"
"He kept bugging me about you being his birth dad and didn't want to leave, so I took it in front of him."
Chris felt like he had been hit by a train.
"What the f**k is wrong with you Thalia."
"Nothing is wrong with me, a matter of fact, I feel great.," Thalia said, stretching her arms and back.
Chris slapped his forehead in frustration and went to sit on a chair.
Thalia walked up to him, lowered herself to his left, and placed her right hand on his cheek.
"What's wrong, you look tired and frustrated?"
Chris sighed and placed his hand on hers. "I am tired, it's just that, it's been a long day and I need to rest."
"Sure, you can take a nap here or do you want me to sleep beside you?"
"Yes please, it'll help me sleep quicker."
Chris moved to the middle of the bed so Thalia could sleep beside him. He wrapped his hand around her waste.
"Is the door locked?"
A click was heard.
"It is now."

Somewhere located on the northern side, after the Montgomery pack

" Is it done?" A strange man in a black tuxedo with silver hair standing in front of a window asked with a deep masculine voice.
"Yes my Alpha, I made sure to put them where it was easy but difficult to find and she took it. Now she has taken the first dose and now, we have 10% control of her mind."
"That's nice to hear for now. Do they believe you are dead?"
"Yes my Alpha, I made sure to let it seem like Marina killed me," Tina replied, her head bowed.
"Good. The first face of our plan has been accomplished, we move on to the second part, go tell the others, and make sure she takes the second dose on time."
"Yes my Alpha, I will do as commanded to," Tina said and left the room.
