Chapter 75

She blinked repeatedly but that did not change what she saw.

It was a man, but what a man.

He was the complete opposite of Keratin. Where Keratin was well-built, this man had a lean muscle mass on him. His hair was light brown and fell in waves around his face giving him an angelic look. He had on a white tunic and brown shorts. Slung across his shoulders was a long bow and arrow and in one hand he held an animal almost as large as himself, the only difference was that it was obviously dead.

His face as well as the rest of his body was a dark shade of brown, but what struck Germaine most about him were his eyes. They were a striking green, the same color as the leaves that surrounded them. They were also hypnotizing to look at. She felt like she was drowning in them as she stared into their depths.

She also heard, as if from far away, Keratin's voice and the tightening of his hand around her waist.

    Chapter 76Germaine watched as Keratin crouched at the opening of the hole trying to see inside it. It was pitch black from where she stood, which wasn't far at all. She had always had an inordinate fear of the dark and now that she was willingly going into the abyss, so to speak, it seemed foolhardy of her.Mulling over it in her mind, she knew she had no other choice but to do so. If she backed down now, all the people who looked up to her would deem her a coward. Keratin got onto his hands and knees and stepped inside the hole although he did not go far as he waited for her to follow."Well, here goes something," Germaine murmured to herself and stepped inside after him."Be careful, my lady." The mage spoke up behind her."Try not to bump into anything while down there," Ennie said immediately after."We'll be right behind you." Amelia piped up as well with a tone of excitement in her words.Germaine hear

    Chapter 77Keratin's hand once more found its way around Germaine's waist as they followed Storm and Zar through the winding tunnel. Germaine lost track of how long they had been walking when Zar suddenly stopped in front of a door made out of what seemed like clay and knocked. The sound reverberated all around adding volume and making it sound ominous.The door opened up an inch at first, but when Zar exchanged a few words with whoever was on the other side, it was opened up wider. Germaine could not take her eyes off the creature that stood in front of them.Zar turned to their party and began introductions. "This is Kalo." A female goblin appeared beside him. "And this is Moka. They are mated as well as the keepers of the goblin race."Germaine looked from the dwarf-like creatures and back to Zar. She did not know what to make of the situation. If Zar was a goblin, then how come he was the direct opposite

    Chapter 78Germaine woke with a start. For a few seconds, she did not know where she was or who she even was. She looked askance, at the basket in front of the bed that glowed with a yellow, iridescent light and remembered fireflies. Everything came tumbling back into her mind like an information overload thereafter.She sighed and flopped back down onto the bed, her body feeling tired and spent. She closed her eyes, her body needing more rest but the empty gnawing feeling in her stomach made her sit up once more. She knew if she did not eat something soon, she would be weak, making her powers practically null and void. She also knew from experience that when she got this way, she would become antagonistic. She didn't want to offend anyone, so she grudgingly got up on shaky legs.A knock sounded on the door as she got to it and when she opened it, she was surprised to see a young female goblin holding a tray

    Chapter 79Everyone turned to see Zar striding inside the hall wearing a different black tunic and trousers. It seemed his clothes matched his mood because his eyes shone with fury as he advanced further inside the hall and stood directly in view of everyone. He looked at a space in front of them as his eyes took on a shiny hue and misted over. It was obvious he was relieving the past.But oh, what a past.As he opened his mouth to weave a tale of horror, so rife and gory, Germaine could not help but clutch onto the edges of the table. Long ago, the home of the goblins was based inside the heart of the forest and they lived in peace with all other species of animals. They had a celebration of the coming of age, as was customary amongst goblins when they reached a certain age.All the goblins were present, including the newly mated ones. They had barely started the celebration when a loud noise rent the air send

    Chapter 80The following morning, Germaine set out with Dilla and Connie. They did not have a particular destination in mind, but Germaine wanted the spell from Rage lifted off her. Before she left, Keratin begged her to be safe and return on time. He kissed her passionately and said he would count the hours till she was back."Why don't you want Keratin and the others to know about your powers?" Dilla was the first to break the silence.They had just crawled out of the hole and Germaine relished the fresh air as well as the sights and sounds of the boisterous animals all around them. She caught one hanging from a tree and grinned as it snaked up a branch."I don't know." She shrugged. "I'm just reluctant to do so, call it a hunch but something keeps holding me back.""Even to your mate, Keratin?" Dilla persisted.Germaine sighed. "How do I even know he's really my mate? I don't want to make a mistake and the

    Chapter 81They found a spot deep in the forest where they would be alone and not be discovered. Dilla brought out the runes from the sack hoisted on his shoulders. It was the only thing he had brought from the house because it would have been difficult to work on any new spells without them. Although he could wield incantations and chants as he pleased, but it would not be as potent as when the runes were present. They always strengthened every spell.He told Germaine to lie down on the ground, face up, and close her eyes. He wondered why she wanted to get rid of the spell. Maybe she did not know that with it, she was tied to Rage. That meant she would get to know what he was doing and at whatever time too, if only she tapped into it. Germaine was exceedingly powerful but she did not yet know the extent of her powers.She would not know yet until she was pushed to the limit. As soon as she lay down on the gr

    Chapter 82The party was in full swing and all the goblins had dressed to impress. The females were bedecked in animal hide dresses and long necklaces around their necks and fingers, while the men wore tunics and shorts made from animal hide. Germaine found out Zar bought the jewelry from some merchants who usually came into the forest.Everywhere rang with gaiety and laughter. Flowers cushioned the floor and walls of the hall, and fireflies were let out of their baskets and flew around, lighting up every part of the hall making it look like something out of a fairytale book.Germaine could not contain her excitement. There was something about parties that made her happy and excited. She recalled the last one she attended in the werewolf town of Rim. That was the same day she and Keratin had made love and knew there was a deeper attraction between the two of them. Her face flamed red as she thought about what ha

    Chapter 83Keratin stood a good head and shoulder taller than most men.He also had a body that was fit and ripped, but even with all his attributes, he was not vain. He knew he was a good-looking man but that did not in any way reduce his other attributes - the fact that he was kind, honorable, and brave was like a bonus. Little wonder he was the head of the warriors in the town of Rim.As he walked through the corridors of the goblins, he could not help but reminisce on times past when he was still a wee lad and his mother - moon goddess rest her soul - was still alive. He never met his father, and his mother never told him anything about him. As a matter of fact, bringing him up was a taboo so he forgot all about him and focused only on his mother.She was the sweetest woman he had ever encountered as well as the greatest female warrior that ever lived in Rim. He remembered when she would put him on her

Recognition, maybe, but she didn't know any of them. They always left with disappointed looks on their faces. Amongst them was a man who sat with her for a while. He was very handsome with bright blue hooded eyes and long straight hair. She itched to run her fingers through his hair knowing fully well it would feel like a silky curtain.He always held her hand and spoke to her but she didn't understand a word of what he said. He had a sad look on his face which she longed to wipe off but she could not because she could not move her body.She had dreams of a man with a scar on his face telling her to wake up and come back to the living because there were people who waited for her and wanted her alive.

    Chapter 107 Germaine ran toward the table but unfortunately, she never made it there. Just as she was a hair's breadth away from it, a hand reached out and snatched up the talisman. "This never gets old, I tell you." In front of her stood a smirking Rage. He had on a long black cloak with a hood covering his head. The concentric lines on his face glowed eerily, adding to his otherworldly look. There was a terrible fascination about him that Germaine could not place. She could not tear her eyes away from his face. She tried to move, but it seemed she was stuck to the spot. She could not even turn her head. Her eyes tracked his movement as he walked past her. "So predictable, Lucia, and so disappointing." He chuckled darkly. "You did exactly what I predicted you would." Germaine heard a whimper and realized it had come from her. "Did you think that I would leave something so precious lying around if it were not a trap?" He chuckled darkly once more. "So stupid, my child." Germaine he

    Chapter 106The bubble Keratin and the others traveled in smelt of Ash and smoke. It lasted a few minutes but to him, it seemed like a lifetime. A lifetime of being away from Germaine. He had been mostly chatty, deliberately keeping his mind busy so as not to ponder on his missing mate and how they would go about rescuing her.He had brainstormed with Storm and the others and concluded. Rage had taken her, thanks to the revelations from Storm after channeling the moon goodness. They knew she was being held in Tirria.The issue they had was how to get inside the headquarters of the Magedom - the glasshouse, undetected. That was where Dilla came in. Having once worked inside the glass house as a mage, he designed a detailed map. He even knew the times the Mages had their meals and also when they would gather for training. The only issue was Rage who had taken over. He was a wild card, one they had to be wary of.

    Chapter 105Not again.Germaine stared balefully at the iron cage she was trapped inside. She could not believe her shitty luck. For the second actually- the third time in her life and a short space as well, she had been kidnapped. She closed her eyes and pondered on how she got herself locked inside a rusty-looking cage.It came to her in an instant.Rage had appeared out of the blue and of course, she goaded him. He didn't like that at all. From one moment to the next, everything went dark and when she woke, she was behind bars in a rusty cage in an empty room. She cursed Rage and her rotten luck. There was no way out of this except to bargain. She knew that would catch his attention.The question though, was what would she bargain with?She sighed as she opened her eyes. A dark pair of eyes stared back at her and she let out a shrill scream. The person staring at her looked fearful as if she would be caug

    Chapter 104Keratin had experienced Germaine shutting her mind to him before. It hurt him when she did it and when he could not read her thoughts. However, there was a grave difference between shutting down the mind link and not getting any reading on the person's thoughts.The latter is what he experienced.It was a blank canvas. She was there, but it was silent. He had experienced this same thing before her. The day she was thrown into the sea while on the vessel by one of Rage's men. It was a horrible feeling, one he did not want to experience again. As he lifted his sword and sliced off the neck of the last creature, he knew something had happened to her and his heart sank.He looked around, assessing the damages. Apart from one of their warriors who had been taken down, they were relatively alright. Storm was fine as well as the other warriors. He sighted Dilla and Zar taking stock of the damages. Galieel

Her breaths came out in fast short bursts.Hot tears of frustration pooled in her eyes but she quickly blinked them away. She released a harsh breath when she remembered what she had read in the tome back in Dilla's house. She was referred to as a savior.She - a savior?Ha! They must have mistaken her for someone else. She couldn't even help herself out of her situation, so how was she to help any of the others? For once, Keratin was silent. Up above her, the ground trembled and rumbled. She didn't need to be told that he, as well as the others, were fighting for their lives.Fueled with a sudden fierce determination, she focused on her breathing.When cornered, do not try to use your powers because they won't work.But why?Because you would have unknowingly locked them up.

    Chapter 102Germaine breathed in deeply but just before she came back to her surroundings, she perceived Keratin's thoughts once more. Each one was a precise string of logic. He would maneuver to the right and attack with his claws while he would give way for other warriors to flank him. he would remain in front, leading, always keeping her safe by blocking her from harm.Even his warriors were not spared from being shielded by him. What she found confusing was when she saw how he would change to a human and attack the creatures with his sword, cutting off their heads if they got too close or crowded around them.How possible was this? Would she still be on his back or would she fall off?A skilled werewolf can change from animal to man, and back again within the twinkling of an eye. Of course, you already know we can divide into many parts of ourselves. And, no, my love, you would not fall off when I change

    Chapter 101This is really happening. Germaine said to herself.As she stood staring at the creatures still high up in the sky, she could not help but feel a thrill slither down her back. She could not for the life of her, understand the excitement she felt at that moment. Inside of her, her powers flowed to her fingertips, ready to come out at the slightest urging.She could barely focus on what Storm was saying. He was giving a speech but it made no sense to her because all her senses were on the figures fast approaching in the sky. Nevertheless, she forced herself to listen to him as he reeled out instructions. The only instruction she would follow was to maim and kill the enemy."- and so the female mates will sit on the backs of their wolves."Say what?She put her hand up.

    Chapter 100Keratin ran as fast as his warrior-legs would carry him. His thoughts which had been scrambled, became clear and centered on just one thing alone. Germaine. The mate bond sang in his veins and the call for protection was too strong for him to ignore.He tore into the tent where the females were and zeroed in on his mate sleeping soundly. He took some seconds to admire her sleeping form before striding forward. He knew what he was about to do was wrong. He knew he should blow the whistle which would alert everyone about the impending danger, but not yet.First. . . he needed to get his mate to safety.Not wasting any more time, he placed his large palm over her mouth and her eyelids fluttered open. It was entrancing to watch her blink away the fog of sleep blanketing her eyes and the myriad of expressions that moved, lightning-fast, across her features.
