Chapter 23Ethan's POV"Father why would you want me to accompany you on this journey of yours?" I asked, knowing how long how I would miss staring at Irene's face and cuddling her in my arms."You must to be callous to have thought of that words to ask me. Have you lost your manners?" My father's words were not surprising, being a disciplined man in his shoes would surely have to display acts of self discipline."No father I mean no disrespect, I was only being curious" I stuttered as I bowed my head in shame, wishing that I would get him pissed and then he reject me from travelling with him."In that case don't let your curiosity get the better side of your mind" He advised as he stared at me, waiting for my response."Pardon my words father" I apologized as he stood up and walked back into the castle."We're moving by nightfall so get your things ready" My father ordered."In that case I would like to see my brother Paul" I muttered to myself as I walked down to his chambers, not s
24Irene's POV"I want you to teach me how to swim" I was taken aback by Clifford's words, why would he take me out to the river just to teach him how to swim. I felt very uneasy, knowing that I would have to walk down to the river just to teach a man how to swim, I even thought that we were going to have fun, maybe talk, pluck fruits just like old times."You must be joking right" I stuttered, staring at the seriousness on his face, I needed no soothsayer to tell me that he wasn't joking."I mean my words, except you're a wannabe and you would agree to the fact that you can't swim" He insulted one of the acts that made me happy, he knew that and he used that as a tool to get to me. So naive and rude."Oh I can swim" I retorted."Then how about you teach me?""What do I gain in giving you lessons about swimming?"I sighed, wondering why he was the only one gaining on this journey that we're about embarking on."You gain a lot of things. Respect, you definitely would have made an impac
25Ethan's POVStaring at the look on my father's face, I was surprised that he saw me in this condition."Father I was only going out to tan my body""Why would you do that? You're not a female. Get dressed, I don't want to wait a minute when I get to the training ground""Ok father" I hurriedly walked back to my chambers."Hey send me a message once you're awake" I sent Irene a message, hoping that she would give me a quick reply. Maybelline she's still asleep.I dropped my phone about to leave, when my phone beeped."Ethan I'm awake, trust you had a lovely night?" She replied, this brought a smile on my face."Of course I did, how's your night" "Exhilarating and so deep as being in your arms""What's with the early morning romantics?""I miss you so badly""I miss you as well, but I guess I miss my tongue being in the walls of your cunt" I knew that I would make her uneasy with this words."I can't wait to have my hands wrapped around your cock again Ethan" I guessed she missed me
26Irene's POVI hated the fact that I was being used by a guy who had facts about my father and refused to tell me. I didn't even want to hear his words again, I would find any Information myself and there nothing anyone can do about it.At this point, I was the only one left in the house, no one to talk to. No one to hug me. I felt very annoyed that Ethan had to go on this trip with his father. He should have cancelled, and considered being with me and not his father."Hey why don't you fake your sickness and make Ethan leave that journey just to attend to you" I felt so excited at the thoughts of this idea. I needed no umpire to give me the go ahead, I swung my plan into full action and called Ethan."Irene is anything the matter? You're not the type that calls at this time of the day" I expected this remark from Ethan, I usually call him at nights so calling him at the middle of the day was very alarming, but I cared less about his thoughts all I wanted was my plan being successfu
27Irene's POVI was surprised at Ethan's sudden attitude, it was appealing so I had to question him a little about it."Ethan is anything the matter?" I inquired as he continued staring at me."Do I look troubled to you?" he growled."You don't, but your actions do""Tell me about my actions" He ordered with a cold voice."Hey take it easy on the wheels" I was scared when he clenched his fists on the wheels. "Don't you tell me what to do, I never asked for your help so please let me drive and if it's possible just shut it""In that case, you should look out for that" I made a bunny appear on the road, making him a bit scared."What would a bunny be doing out at this time of the day?"He uttered as he continued staring at the Bunny until it hopped into the bushes."Focus on the road, you almost killed a gift from mother nature" I chuckled softly."Are you the one making those?" I guess he saw the smile on my face."How would I be the one making those? You never saw me changing any spe
28 Ethan's POVI was infuriated that Irene made me leave my father just for nothing, to think that I thought something bad had happened to her. She fooled me and made me run through trees in the fastest way I've ever ran in my life. I couldn't deny the fact that I wasn't guarded, wondering what would have happened if I was attacked by my father's enemies.I cared less about her words, even what she did to me had no effect on me.Driving her back to the cabin was the worst idea ever, the drive was filled with her complaints.We finally got to our destination, surprised to see that the cabin's windows were flung open. It seemed as if someone broke into the house to steal.We got closer to the house as I uttered"Someone was here before now" "We need to be sure that all artifacts are intact" She uttered, I was wondering what she meant by Artifacts."What artifacts?" I asked as I was in Total confusion."My Father's properties" She uttered as I hissed violently."Here he goes" She screa
Ethan's POVStaring at my father, I saw the sad look on his face when I changed the look on my face and pretended to be guilty of the charges."He was pleaded guilty" Paul uttered, as my father was happy that I was going to face his wrath, I was infuriated by this. I couldn't hold my words against him."You'll surely face my wrath, take him to the dungeons" My father made matters worse as I had to tell him how I feel about his hate towards me."Father I'm afraid that you want me to go to the dungeons. How could you? I thought you trusted me enough not to kill my kind for no reason, I'm pissed and I'm staying out of this hell hole for a few days" I uttered out of anger."What do you mean?" The fact that he pretended to behave as if I wasn't talking to him."I can't live in a place where I'm not accepted, no offense but have you wondered why Paul had his own house built and his servants different from yours, mother's the only one that has to deal with your attitude, I guess that's becau
Irene's POVI was tensed at what my mother would think when She gets to discover that I left the house without informing her of my whereabouts.I totally forgot to give her a call before sleeping off last night.I was shocked at the surprised look on the faces of the witches when they all saw me riding down to my house in a truck.My mother was sitting outside on the balcony, she was pissed and I understood that clearly and I couldn't help but chuckle softly."Where the fuck did you go to and what's with this barbaric act?" She asked, she was tensed at this point, this made me realize that she was acting on the Influence of people's words, wondering who must have told her lies about me."Firstly mother, I was out on a trip and then I fell in love with this truck it's so beautiful, I can't help but love it so much which is why I bought it for myself, and the reason for my lateness is that I forgot to tell you that I would be coming late because I had some issues to sort out."You waste
IRENE'S POVThe plan was so have Clifford subdued under Paul's whip of seduction, it was really hard but it was worth the risk, knowing how Paul could be manipulative and the fact that he took it as a challenge made me stand on the fact that this plan was going to be successful."I have to tell you I have to protect your brother and that would mean that I would have to stay at his castle," I had to explain this to Ethan because he was acting so weird that it felt like he wanted to have the whole kingdom suffer at the hands of Clifford."How's that even possible?" His questions made me realize that he was looking for a fair fight, a battle where we would face each other, we wouldn't even stand a chance. Penetration was the best way possible, having us in the inside hitting their weak points and make them fall at our mercy."I and your brother would hid in the forest where Clifford's warriors go to hunt and when they're coming we'll pretend to be making which would make them understand
Irene's POV"What's wrong?" I was a bit surprised at the silence in the court, wondering what made all of them scared to the point that they couldn't even make an utterance."Clifford dropped off a message that left us shocked" One of the cabinet members broke the silence, I knew she was scared of Clifford but the fact that I was here gave them a reason not to feel scared, I had him once and I still have the capacity to have him at my mercy again."What message?" I inquired, wondering if Clifford murdered one of the witches."That he's taking over the lands and there's nothing that we would do to stop him" she said these words in fear, she was afraid that her family's life was at risk, having a daughter was something worth dying for. She didn't want anything to happen to her daughter."He met me in the hospital and brought a deal to me, he was to pay me 200 million dollars and allow me leave these lands with my husband and his brother peacefully or stand to be defeated by him" I had t
Chapter 97Ethan's POVThe words Clifford is here made me a bit scared knowing that Irene's life was threatened anytime we got closer to Clifford. The fact that Irene wanted to meet him made me a bit uneasy, wondering what was giving her the guts to feel so strong that she could stand against Clifford after what transpired with her health few minutes ago."We're not leaving, we should know the reason why he's here" Irene meant her words and this got me pissed, I didn't want the death of her and my brother, so running was the best option at this point."Well he's here to kill you and you know that" I uttered as I held down the door knob, she was reluctant to come with me, this was really surprising. On the verge of asking her a question, she spoke her words without fear,"We don't know that for now, if you want to leave you can but I'm definitely staying cause I can't be the rat that would always run when it sees the cat coming, it's high time we switched places" "In that case let's f
Irene's POV"Well as you can see that this war can't be won on your side, you're getting weak... QqYou have a child coming and that would weaken your strength, you know that right?" He uttered as he stared at me for a while, wondering how he got to know that I was pregnant. I guess he must have found out about that from the nurse. "I hate it when you do this, if you're here to say something, say it and stop reminding me of issues that have been sorted out already" I uttered, knowing that he was just biting around the corners, I wanted to know the main reason why he used his powers all the way from his kingdom down to the outskirts of our land just to see me."I want you to give me the kingdom on a platter of gold, I'll give you 200 million dollars and other gifts attached to the deal. You can leave now and start a new life maybe a new kingdom, have enough money to take care of your son that's coming, I don't want to hurt you, hurt your unborn child and your loved ones and still have
Irene's POVHow're you feeling?" He asked as he held my hands softly, I knew he was worried about my health but I couldn't let him realize that I was conversing with the Nurse."I'm feeling good, where am I?" I pretended to raise my head up, tilting it to the right side of the bed, opening my eyes and trying to get up to my feet, "You're in an emergency ward" he uttered as he held me down, urging me to relax."Are we at the cabin?" I inquired, awaiting his response."Not yet, but once you're discharged we would head down to the cabin before going down to your castle" he uttered, knowing that this wasn't what I had in mind. I felt the urge and need to see my people, so staying at the cabin would only be a waste of time."I'll head down to the castle first" I retorted, as he stared at me in shock, I cared less about his words. He definitely had no choice than to concede to my words."I thought you mentioned resting in the cabin before heading down to the castle" I stuttered wearing a
ETHAN'S POV"What's wrong with her?" Paul inquired as he held her hands and lifted her. I quickly shifted into a werewolf, holding her by her clothes, I quickly ran as fast as I could, I was happy when Paul was already waiting for me at the truck. I quickly tossed her into his arms as he caught hold of her and placed her at the back seat of the truck, I got into the truck."Check her pulse""She's still breathing, drive" Paul screamed as I drove the truck out of the thick bush, I knew that we're definitely close to the cabin. I was happy when I saw the words Inn written on a cabin that looked a lot like ours."Let's stop here, they should be able to take care of her" I halted in front of the inn, horning a lot before going to help Paul pull her out of the back seat.I quickly rushed her into the building as there was only one nurse on duty."What's wrong?" She inquired, "She passed out" Paul stuttered, knowing that I wasn't in the mood for words. I only wanted to see Irene open her e
IRENE'S POV"Well since I can't say much I would say that you would make a good leader but in times of war and strategy, you have zero count for that" I didn't want him to feel bad to some point, knowing that he was definitely a bad leader and being the leader of the pack would have left them as slaves because he had little or no knowledge about the art of war."What's the essence of being a leader without war strategy and sense of reasoning in the battlefield?" Paul answered his question with his words, I felt a bit dizzy to some point."You have your answer right there" Ethan chuckles as Paul picks up a marble like stone and tosses at Ethan's direction, Ethan dodged it still laughing at the fact that Paul conceded to his words."Well let's move out, the truck is a bit far from here but we can move on foot. We have to go to the cabin and have some rest before we show this young fellow the world of witches" Ethan uttered as he held his brother's hands, wondering how Paul would even c
Ethan's POV"You remembered you had me thrown into that river with my SUV. You tried to kill me right, have a look at this," I guessed he wouldn't recognize me because I had my hair shaved and my beard was also trimmed, he knew me with my looks since it was changed it was definitely hard for him to recognize me. I showed him the bird on my wrist, knowing that we did this tattoo together when we were little, it was a symbol of our friendship and brotherhood."Arianna made me do all this to you" I knew it wasn't his intention to harm me, Arianna must have said bad words to him that had his thoughts changed, knowing how far we were together, it must have taken a strong will to have Paul subdued. He rested his head on my shoulders as I could feel his tears on my shirt."Well she did that because she had an agenda, she had you take me out and then her Father must have killed our father so she can seat upon the throne" I explained to him, as he raised his head immediately."Hey we have to g
IRENE'S POVI was scared knowing that Paul could get himself killed, jumping off the truck. I had tears in my eyes, I hoped that Ethan would come back to save me, I knew that this was a hard task for Ethan, he couldn't handle these trucks all by himself."I guess I would have to move on without Ethan" I stuttered wearing a smile on my face, knowing that it was really rare for Ethan to make it out of that alive, I knew he must have been killed. I should move on, I could meet his corpse and give him a befitting burial when I take his body home."Remembered he said he's coming back to take you and your brother so don't make it harder for him" my wolf exclaimed, she was right but I couldn't risk Arianna coming back here instead of Ethan. She would hesitate to shoot me, that I would be sure of."Do you think he would survive the fight between him and six trucks loaded with soldiers and their guns?" I sighed as I pushed Paul aside."Yes, I'm sure he'd come back to me" She was referring to E
