Shadow Stalker Part 2 (Episodes 7 - 12)
Auren is captured by the Galvadi trying to rescue her friend, Jade, and tortured by the man who is supposed to love and protect her. When Makari finally realizes she's not the delohi-saqu as his father claims, he helps her escape, but their plans don't go as expected.
Shadow Stalker Part 3 (Episodes 13 - 18)
Things go from bad to worse when the Galvadi Empire develops a new technology to use against the shadow stalkers. Now Kado and Makari are more determined than ever to keep Auren away from their enemies, but Auren decides enough is enough and takes matters into her own hands. She turns herself over to the Galvadi to get close to Drevin and Makari has no choice but to play along. He is forced to either torture Auren to prove his loyalty or die knowing she will be tortured and enslaved anyway. Somehow, they must get close enough to Drevin to bring him down and put an end to the Galvadi’s tyranny once and for all.
Keep reading for an excerpt:
"Are you ready?" Kado asked me.
"Ready for what?"
He removed a wooden lid covering the well and took a rope from a hook inside the opening. "You will need to climb down into the hole."
"And then what?"
"Well, that will be up to you."
"You're not making sense again."
He tilted his head toward the well. "Go on."
I sighed. This seemed like a silly lesson. I had rappelled down many cliffs and into many caverns with Kado over the years. It was nothing new to me. Maybe he was going to start with the easy stuff. I grabbed the rope and sat on the wall of the well. Then I swung my legs over the side and started my descent.
It looked a lot deeper than it was. It was so dark I couldn’t see the bottom, and the opening became snugger as I lowered myself into the hole. By the time I reached the bottom, the walls touched me on all sides, but not enough to slow my progress. Then it opened up, and I found myself in a cavern of some sort. A little further, and my feet were on the ground.
I waited for my eyes to adjust to the darkness and then looked around the open space. The walls were obscured from view, but I heard the burbling of an underwater spring nearby. I looked up and was almost blinded by the light shining through the shaft I had just descended. I thought Kado might be coming down after me, but I didn’t see him.
"Okay I'm down here. Now what?"
"Let go of the rope."
I dropped the rope, and watched it disappear through the top of the hole.
"Kado, what are you doing?"
Without a word, he put the lid over the hole and left me in complete darkness.
