Soren POV
Everything was ready, my power with Ishtar's was enough to cleanse Ghost of the corruption that was inside him and his human part was practically dead. Klaus had made too many mistakes, and the weight of his guilt had simply made him disappear.
If he ever comes back, it will be to see a changed world where he will have to bear the consequences of his actions. Ghost bowed, even though he knew he might have something to do with Ayla.
Whatever happened in his mind, it made him realize that to stand in my and Victor's way was to be defeated and forgotten and his loyalty to Ayla was too high for him to do something like that.
In a way, I feel sorry for Ghost, for everything he's been through and I know I have a part in it, because I taught Klaus how to
Soren POVBefore I could realize it, Victor pulled me close to him and I saw a strange hand emerge from the ground, trying to hold me down. It's not like the undead we've seen before, no, this is something much worse, something unholy.To make sure that nothing like this would happen, I created a barrier beneath our feet, so when we walked and this time the attack hit directly on the barrier, I shuddered with each hit, instinctively not wanting to see what exactly was attacking.I swallowed because I knew that this was made of living people and that somehow this monstrosity was trapping the souls of the people who made up the monster. Victor looked at me, confused, not believing what we were seeing.I closed my eyes and began to concentrate on the Light, se
Note: This chapter takes place as soon as the characters separate!Ghost POVAs we advance, I can hear the sound of battle, howls, screams, and the smell of blood intensifying, and those who approach are stopped by the small group that surrounds me.It's not that I can't fight, but I'm saving my energy because I know I'm going to need all my strength to be able to face Hoff. One of the important things for someone with my title is that the two parts are in balance, or at least exist. With my human part gone, it's as if I've lost half my power, but that's the consequences of the choices Klaus has made and there's nothing I can do to help him now.It didn't take long for us to get to where Hoff was, and it couldn't be a better place than t
Soren POVI shook my head, trying to clear the confusion taking over my mind.'Let me take over.' Strïth asked me.I just agreed, without saying anything and I can feel my body changing, increasing in size, as the Shadows and Lights begin to dance around us and I look at the one who betrayed me."No!" I hear James' voice. "Don't let him finish!"Then I feel the Necromancer's hand on my back and the pain is intense because he is interfering with my energy, my soul. This, together with James' ability, is enough to make Strïth lose his strength and I return to my human form.Several chains made of this black smoke surround me and Victor too, I see him trapped
Victor POVThe feeling of walking into a trap only grew, but there's no going back. Ayla's life is in our hands. I know I should be worried about the whole vampire race, but right now I'm just thinking about saving my mate.Soren and I are a team in perfect sync, and as soon as I see him start to concentrate the Light, I make the surrounding needles increase and turn into small blades. I closed my eyes at the moment of the explosion and felt the resistance of this corruption against my attack, but in the end, it was unable to hold out.As soon as I open my eyes and see the monstrosity, I know that it is my responsibility to free these poor souls from this suffering! Hermaði is a warrior trained by the Moiras and whom I have been given the opportunity to get to know...
Soren POV"Ishtar was worried, with the amount of deaths we've had, that there might be soul stones being created in the area." Ghost commented as we climbed the stairs."But I'm not identifying the smell of blood," I commented."When there was the explosion of divine energy, it cleansed the blood, burning the bodies of those who were connected to the Hoff, those who had a slight corruption, or who had been forced to join them suffered a little damage when they were freed." Ghost explained.I looked at James, remembering that he fell to his knees on the floor as soon as the first silver glow was present."My daughter? Is she all right?" Samira asked, anxiously.
Soren POV - Two weeks laterWith my help, the kingdom of the Lycans was completely restructured. It wasn't that difficult, since almost everyone connected to Hoff had died and the few who were against the new regime were imprisoned.With the change of pack leaders, things have become more controlled. Of course, there is still a lot of resistance to the extinction of slavery, especially on the part of those who have a higher title, but according to the reports everything is under control. Ghost is governing well, listening to the population, and also reorganizing the new laws. Of course, the Council of Elders has been changed, after all, many of them died and their families no longer had the right to the title, so a championship was organized for the new vacancies.A championship that not only involves
Victor POVWith the end of the war against the Lycan Kingdom and everything going well, I dedicated myself to finding out more about flowers, after all, they are now even more a part of who I am.Apart from the connection the flowers have with Ayla, her scent is like a field of flowers and I feel closer to her as I tinker in this greenhouse, doing my experiments and watching new species bloom. The one I liked the most was a rose that each petal has a different color.I can sense that Soren is anxious about when our mate will wake up, but as far as we know, it could take months, and we should use that time to create alliances with other kingdoms.The Kingdom of the Wizards got in touch, asking for a new meeting, wanting to explain the situation, but the only
Soren POV - Three weeks laterTime is slow to pass, the longer the days go by the more anxious I get, as much as I've been distracted by creating the items for my mate, it simply hasn't been enough to calm my mind.Every day I find myself closer to one of Selene's Tears, wanting to feel closer to Ayla in some way, and I'm sad that I'm so close, yet so far from her...Because these flowers are so rare and so powerful, we did some tests, and when Skyler tried to cut one of them, it was thrown away in a magical attack. That made me calmer because I know that these little flowers have protection.Although I attend the meetings with the Heads of Houses, my head isn't there and so it's Victor who's taking care of most things, whether it's decisions about new alli
