Mesmerized (Mortal, Book Six)

"Alec. Stop." My voice shakes as he approaches me.


His red eyes stare straight at me, but the person I know is no longer in there. He's been turned. He's a slave of Mordak now.


I take a step back, my heart racing in my chest. I never thought it would come to this. Of all the fears I had walking into these caves, I didn't think that Alec would be turned.


"Alec, please," I try again, hoping to reach him somehow. "You don't have to do this. You can fight it."


But Alec just keeps advancing, his claws extended. I can see the hunger in his eyes, the thirst for blood. He's a monster.


"How did you do this?" I snap at Mordak.


My dad was able to hold out for a while. So shouldn't Alec be able to as well? He's half angel, after all. Shouldn't he be able to resist some of Mordak's power?
