Stryker's pawn from death. This could be extremely beneficial. The Alexion would think twice before he damned his friend to Shadedom and it would give Stryker a pawn to use against him. Surely the Alexion wouldn't kill the very man he'd come to save.

Oh, yeah, this was very good

news indeed. "You do know he's lying to you, correct?"

Kyros shook his head as he

leaned back in his chair. "I don't think so."

"Don't you?" Stryker

asked as he moved forward to push aside the black leather pencil cup. He sat on a corner of the desk. "Use your head, Kyros. He claims to be your friend, but where has he been all these centuries?"

"He said he couldn't make

contact."

"Couldn't or wouldn't

?"

Kyros's eyes narrowed on him.

"Just say what you're going to say, Stryker. I'm in no mood for your bullshit right now."

"Fine," he said,

leaning forward to meet Kyros's gaze levelly. "What I have to say is this.

If he really is your friend, where has he been all this time while you've been languishing in the backwoods of hell? How many times have you requested Acheron move you from Mississippi into an urban area where there is something going on other than a keg party? And how many times has your request gone unanswered?"

Kyros looked away from him.

"Ash had his reasons."

The poor pathetic little fool.

He had no idea what he was dealing with when it came to either Acheron or himself.

"Did he?" Stryker

asked. "Or was it your friend who refused your request? Think about it, Kyros. Acheron is a busy man who doesn't have time to oversee all the thousands of Dark-Hunters out there that he has created to destroy us. Who would he defer to in such matters? Hmm?"

Stryker didn't give him time

to answer. He didn't want Kyros to formulate a logical argument before he planted doubts in his mind. "His right hand, that's who. The one he trusts above all others to carry out his orders."

He tsked. "Hell, the

Alexion even has the ability to command part of my brother's powers. There are some of us who believe that your friend, the Alexion, even shares the blood of Acheron. So you know it's your so-called friend who has been responsible for your assignments. He was the one who didn't think you deserved to be around more people. And even if he wasn't the one making the decision, surely such a friend would have the ability to sway Acheron's mind and intervene to save you long before now. Wouldn't he?"

He saw the uncertainty in

Kyros's eyes and forced himself not to smile in victory.

"They're both playing

you, Kyros. Think about it. This is just another mind fuck. They're off laughing at you right now. This instant. Both of them. The Alexion is here to kill you all, not save you. If he'd really wanted to save you, he would have given you a decent assignment in a thriving city long ago. But he didn't, did he?"

Stryker tried to look

sympathetic. "Trust me, there won't be a single Dark-Hunter left alive in this area once he returns to Acheron unless you kill the Alexion first.
