Chapter 11

The smell was almost unbearable. My nose was twitching as I fought against the urge to throw up or growl. The six of us stood silent, waiting to see if our entrance had been detected. It was really dark under here, hard to see our surroundings even with help from my wolf. The sewerage area we were in was small and narrow. The boys had to crouch to not hit their heads. Maximus had said that this was just an offshoot, not the main thoroughfare.

Before we’d started this mission, the Compasses had explained the general layout of the prison. There was a large circular room right in the center which acted as a mingling zone. Every day for a few hours the five different supernatural races were allowed out for shared lunch, and to interact and have exercise time. Spanning off this area were five thin tendril-like zones. They formed the prison cells for each group. There was no mingling between different races in the cells; this was strictly enforced – vampires were only with vamps and so on. There were very specific protections on these areas. They catered to the weaknesses of each supernatural race. If I had to guess, judging by the wolfsbane, silver and blood-sacrifice power that I could see threaded through the stone structures above our heads, the spot we had entered seemed to be underneath the shifter zone.

After a few minutes of silence everyone let out the breath they’d been holding. We seemed to be in the clear. Well, no one had followed us through the wall, which indicated we had not been seen.

Braxton started to creep his way along the tunnel, bent almost in half to fit. “Follow me,” he said.

It took about ten minutes for us to emerge into what I would say looked like the central sewerage line.

Braxton stayed in the lead, giving us a quick rundown. “Nash told me how to find the area he slept in. It’s in between the shifter and vampire section of the prison. These are the sewerage systems he uses to get around.”

“So this area is not really accessible from the main prison?” Mischa asked.

Braxton nodded. “I don’t think so. I did a reasonable amount of exploring but never could quite figure out how to get into this eastern section of Vanguard. Nash sort of clued me in on how to do it.”

We started walking again, sticking close to the wall. On the other side of us was a semi-circle dip in the stone which contained whatever disgusting muck ran through a sewerage system, and I was very grateful to not only be wearing shoes, but to also not have to go into that shit.

After about ten minutes, Braxton stopped. “We’ll go up here.” He reached out and rested his hand on a metal ladder that hugged the rock walls. I hadn’t even noticed it until right then. “Let me go first and make sure the area is clear.”

Just like that he was gone, scaling the heights in seconds.
