Nokken takes the bow from one of Mercy's men and puts it over his shoulder as they walk into the woods. One way or another, he is going to bring his wife home, and he is going to destroy the asshole who took her from him. They get close to the cabin, and Alaric puts his hand up, signaling them to stop moving. Alaric turns around and looks at them. " Nokken and Drakkin, you two go around the back. You two in the trees, and wait for my signal. Alester and I will go through the front." Alaric says. Nokken and Drakkin run around the back of the cabin and stand behind a tree, looking up, waiting for the men in the trees to make their moves. Drakkin sees one of the men cock the bow back and release the arrow. As soon as the arrow is spinning in the air, they run out from behind the trees and bust the door down.

Nokken kicks the door in as he brings his bow forward; he releases the arrow as soon as he sees someone coming around the corner. The arrow lands in the center of the head, and the vampire drops. One after another, they start dropping like dead flies. As soon as Nokken runs out of arrows, he drops the bow and picks up a sword he finds on one of the dead men. He brings it up when he sees someone run at him. He blocks the blow from the blade of the sword. Swing after swing, Nokken meets the assaults from the enemy with his own sword. After a couple more swings, Nokken jams the sword into the man's stomach with force; he pulls the blade sideways. "You guys fucked with the wrong person." Nokken says before he pulls the sword the rest of the way. The man drops in a heap with blood pouring out of his stomach.

Trinity can hear the commotion going on upstairs above her. She looks around the room, trying to find a weapon. Then she remembers the broken chair across the room. She slowly pulls herself up off the floor. "Ah," She screams in pain as she grabs her stomach. She feels something warm and sticky coming from in between her legs. Moving her hand and checking to see what it was, she starts to cry when she sees a crimson red color covering her hand. "No, no," she cries as she figures out that it's blood. She is at risk of losing her baby. She forces herself to stand up tall and slowly makes her way to the pile of broken chairs. She finds the sharpest piece of wood and holds it in her unsteady hand. Once she hears the door open, she points it at the person that enters the room. "Woah, it's Zane Trinity. Put the stick down." Zane says, holding his hands up, showing he means no harm. "Why, why should I trust you? You didn't help me when your father was beating me. You didn't help or try to stop him when he assaulted me." She screams as he walks into the room some more. " Trin, it's me. Put it down." She hears a familiar voice. She looks over and can't believe her eyes. She stumbles back and catches herself on the wall. "No, this is a trick." She says, shaking her head as she looks at her dead brother. "No, it's not. We will talk about this later. We need to get you out of here. Nokken and Drakkin are upstairs, and shit is hitting the fan," Korey says as he walks over to his twin sister and takes her hand in his.

As soon as his hand touches her, images of their child flash in her eyes and how he was turned into a vampire the day of the accident. "How?" She mumbles as she looks him in the eyes as tears roll down her face. He grabs his sister and runs her out of the room, up the stairs, and out the back door.

As Nokken makes it through the last of the vampires, he looks around and sees that Orion is nowhere to be found. He turns and sees Trinity outside in someone's arms with Zane standing beside them. He rushes out the door but stops when he sees Allester hugging and crying with the man who has his wife in his arms. He feels his blood start to boil as he sees the condition of his mate. He looks up at Zane, and all he sees is red.

He charges towards Zane and grabs him by his throat and slams him into the tree. "Tell me one good reason I shouldn't kill you." Nokken says as he holds the blade of his sword to Zane's neck. Zane just stares him in the eyes, showing no emotions. "If that's what you need to do, then do it." Zane chokes out as the air slowly leaves his body. "Nokken, Nokken, that's enough," Alaric says as he pulls Nokken off of Zane. "Why? He helped his father kidnap her. He betrayed us." Nokken shouts but stops when he looks at his wife and the man who is holding her. "Who are you? Give her to me," he says as he walks up and grabs his wife. "We will worry about that later; we need to get her to the healer now." Mercy, she says as she walks up to them, and her eyes widen with horror. Nokken looks down and sees the blood in between her legs. With that, he takes off running down the mountain.

They make it to the palace, and Nokken is still carrying Trinity in his arms. He rushes her into the medical wing. "Get me Sonia now!" he yells at one of the nurses as he enters a room and lays her down on the bed. " Out of the way," Sonia says as she comes running into the room, shoving Drakkin and Nokken out of the way. "Oh my god," Sonia says as she takes in Trinity's condition. Her face is swelling up and turning shades of blue and black; she has old burn marks and new ones all over her arms and legs. Her back has lashes from being beaten numerous times with a whip and bruises across her stomach that are in the shape of a boot. Sonia covers her mouth, trying to hold back tears as she looks over at Trinity. "Everyone out now; I need space to work," she says as she shooes them out of the room.

Nokken is forced out of the room by four guards. "Trinity!" Nokken screams as the guards hold him down as they try to keep him from entering the room. "Nokken!! You need to calm down and let Sonia do her job." Alaric says as he stands in front of him. "That anger you feel right now, channel it into finding Orion and then use it on him," Alaric says to Nokken. Hearing those words calms him down some. "I have a better idea," Drakkin says, smiling as he looks towards Zane.

Nokken looks over to where Drakkin is directing his glare. Nokken stalks toward Zane and drags him out of the medical wing. He opens the door and throws Zane outside onto the dirt. He brings his leg back and kicks him full force, causing Zane to slam into a tree. Zane rolls over on the ground and starts coughing. He slowly brings himself up off the ground. " Come on, I know you can do better than that, fairy boy." Zane says, laughing as he spits blood out onto the ground. Nokken stalks towards him and grabs him. "Yeah , you're right. I can do better than that. " He brings his hand up, and it starts glowing bright red. And places it on his chest. "AGH!" Zane screams bloody murder as Nokken slowly melts the skin on his chest. As Zane screams, Nokken can hear Drakkin cheer him on. Nokken removes his hand from Zane's chest and raises his fist and connects it to his face. Nokken feels the punch collide and a crunch of Zane's cheekbone. Nokken drops Zane back onto the ground, and his boot connects with his face as he kicks him again. He does it a few more times before Alaric steps in and stops him. "Nokken, that's enough," Alaric says, pushing him away from Zane. "Why? I'm not done with him. He never interfered and protected Trinity while she was beaten over and over again. He just stood there while he watched his father torture my wife. He watched his father while he possibly murdered my unborn child." Nokken screams and then falls to his knees and pulls his hair. " I wasn't there to stop it. I failed them," Nokken cries.

Zane pulls himself up slowly and looks over at Nokken with sorrow in his eyes. "I wanted to protect her, Nokken. I really did, but if I did, then my father would have found out about my aunt and about Korey escaping. If Trinity knew the truth about Mercy, you and I both know she would have done anything in her power to keep her safe, even if it meant putting her in danger. So be pissed at me; hell, kick my ass again for all I care. Just know I will be by your side while you take my father down, even if it kills me." Zane says

Nokken glares at him and shakes his head, walking away. Alaric turns to look at Zane and shakes his head before he hands him a cloth to clean up his blood-covered face. "And you," Alaric points his finger at him. "Why didn't you fight back?" He says. "Look, I know you think it was stupid. But he needed a distraction; he was about to tear apart your men. I heal faster than your kind does. He needed it; I just wanted to help. I'm partially at fault for Trinity's condition, and I'm also at fault if she loses that baby. But I swear if I had known about it, I would have tried harder or done something to protect them both." Zane says before he walks away into the woods. Alarc watches him walk away, not knowing what to say about what Zane just did. He may be a vampire, but he doesn't act like it; he cares about others.

Alaric walks back to the palace and heads for the dungeon to find out how the hell his nephew is still alive. They all thought he died eight years ago in a car accident, and now here he is, a vampire. Just hearing that makes his blood boil. He makes his way down the stairs to the dungeon. Before he makes it to the bottom of the stairs, the aroma hits him full force. He can smell the mildew mixed in with urine and blood; he holds back a gag as he makes it to the bottom of the steps. He walks to the end of the long corridor and makes it to a single silver door. He pushes the door open and is met by Alester and Korey. Korey is sitting at a large steel table with his handcuffs attached to it. Alester is staring at his son with disbelief, still not believing his eyes.

"Hello Uncle Alaric, it's nice to officially meet you," Korey says with boredom showing on his face.
