Chapter 48Irene's POVI was surprised that Clifford brought my mom back to the village."Where's she?" I inquired staring at the witch, I guess she didn't know where my mother was, she was only acting on the words that she was told."She's at the courtroom and she's demanding for your presence" Another witch divulged as she held my hands and led me into the courtroom."Mother, Mother" I uttered as I dashed forth to my mother, sighed heavily as I fell into her arms."Where've you been?" I hugged her tightly, missed her so much that I didn't realize that I was literally crying."Enough of these emotions and let's get to why we're here" One of the Council members interrupted in a mild tone."Irene your mother was kidnapped by our enemy, she was brought back last night... She refused to give us any valuable information until she knows that you're safe because she thinks you were taken as well" The Queen mother announced as everyone stared at her, the sudden pause in her words felt a bit
Chapter 49Ethan's POVI was suffocating in the trunk of this, eating the apples was one of the things that wowed me, not realizing how much I was interested in the apples."Wow these apples are so delicious" I gasped, staring at the empty boxes, I ate more than a hundred apples and my stomach still felt empty."Hey how're you doing?" I was pissed staring at the slight smile that Irene was trying hard to hide."You have to take me out of here or I'm releasing myself" I growled, staring into her eyes, it felt more like I was locked up in a cell filled with apples."You would be dead before you even reach the borders" She chortled as she held my hands "Yeah I guess, when do I leave this shit hole, it's suffocating in here?" I inquired, hoping to get an answer that would be mild but not fierce as I listened to her words, "You'll leave but not now," "Who are you talking to Irene,?" Irene shivered as she closed the trunk on my fingers, I groaned in pains as I listened to spraying sounds
Chapter 50Irene's POVHappy that I collected the perfumes from Lisa, she was the best at making perfumes that would take everyone off Ethan's scent."Hey how're you doing?" I chuckled as I opened the trunk, staring at Ethan's face filled with apples, staring at the apple baskets. He was almost done with the apples."You have to take me out of here or I'm releasing myself" I knew he was pissed being in here, I wish my mother wasn't here, I would have taken him inside the house. Lisa's not a snitch so she would have to keep it a secret."You would be dead before you even reach the borders" I uttered trying to distract him from thinking about getting chances of leaving. "Yeah I guess, when do I leave this shit hole, it's suffocating in here?" he stuttered having a look at the witches at the gates."You'll leave but not now," I convinced him, as I noticed someone walking towards me, I quickly sprayed the perfume, after shutting the trunk on his fingers."Who are you talking to Irene,?"
Chapter 51Ethan's POVThe morning was filled with rose uproars and noises from everywhere, Irene quickly stood up on her feet and stepped out of the truck, she gave me the keys and said "Be at alert, when I come in you'll need to drive out of this place""What's going on?""Sienna has gone rogue, I need to stop her before she does harm to the Queen mother." "Can I go with you?""Nope, we don't want the change of attacks here, Sienna could cast the blame on you, saying that you're the cause of her madness.""Ok fine, be safe out there" I conceded to her words, as I forced myself into the driver's seat, exhaled deeply as I finally placed myself on the driver's seat.I looked out through the window, staring at the lady that was weakening all other witches with her spells in a book that was floating in the air.Sh looked more evil than a demon, wearing a black cape, I was wondering where Irene was."This is definitely going to be a Battle of survival" I stuttered as I stared at Irene a
CHAPTER 52IRENE'S POVCrying over the fact that Ethan could lose his life of this dagger is not removed from his body, he was bleeding profusely. Holding his hands firmly, I chortled as my mother uttered,"This would surely hurt so you have to be patient with it and use this" She placed a little three Chunk in between his teeth, it was getting worse, I knew this was greater than the witches in the circle."This is an ancient dagger, it would only take The Queen mother to remove this" my mother divulged staring at the red pin on it, I remembered vividly where I saw that exact same knife, I saw it in one of my father's diaries."When our ancestors call you do not reject, they'll guide you and lead you to victory" these words were registered in my mind.I walked out and walked back in alongside the Queen mother, I was happy that she was willing to save Ethan."This is an ancient dagger and it's said that only the Queen mother is allowed to touch this dagger once it's used" My mother div
CHAPTER 53 ETHAN'S POVI watched Irene being carried out of the room, her mother was still in shock... This was surprising to everyone present within the walls of the room.I was glad when Irene's mother wrapped the bandages over the cut, finally I could have my rest and be free from a magic dagger that almost got me killed."What's really going on ma'am?" I inquired staring at her as she tied the last wrap on my ribs."You're not one of our kind, you don't deserve to know what happened, but with what you did I'll give you a soft spot... Irene's going to be the next Queen mother of this Kingdom" She divulged wearing a smile on her face, it's the happiness of every mother to see her offspring thrive and become great among her peers."What does that have over her life?" I asked, knowing that when I was chosen as the Alpha, heavy responsibilities were placed on me. I didn't even have time to satisfy my pleasures for months, I found balance and with that I made sure I never lose focus on
CHAPTER 54IRENE'S POV"Thank you mother, but I would like to see Ethan" I stuttered as I stood up from the bed, my mother grunted, staring at me with that kind of look that said, can't you see he's not part of our kind?"You're stubborn you know that right" She divulged,"Yeah I know but it's only when it's a good cause" I replied in a mild tone as I wore a smile on my face, walking out of the room.The guard assigned to watch over Ethan approached me, I was wondering if something went wrong with Ethan."How's he doing?""I think he's fine but he was eager to see you" She divulged as she removed the spell used to lock the door."Hey, how are you feeling darling?" I asked, wondering why he had this look on his face,"I'm as bad as you're""Hmm, that justifies it, I wished I was like your kind, my wounds would heal rapidly" I chuckled almost bursting out to a strange kind of laughter I knew would be suspicious. I laid beside him, as we both looked to the ceiling designs."It takes our
CHAPTER 55ETHAN'S POVI walked to the truck, wondering what was going on, listening to Irene's sobbing voice I knew something was wrong and it had to do with her mother. She walked out wearing a sad look on her face as she opened the truck pressing the button."What was the fuss all about?" I asked, "I'll let you know on the way" She uttered as she got into the car, she cared less about the witches standing behind the truck she drove out of the village like she was being pursued, this scared me a little."What went wrong at your house?... If you don't want to say anything, don't force yourself it's fine..." I stuttered, staring at Irene, she was silently sobbing and she couldn't hold her tears anymore. "Did your mother annoy you again?""She talked about my father's place like it's trash to her but that's exactly where her life was built and that where her life met happiness" Irene sobbed as she took a U turn. She wasn't even caring about the traffic."Mothers tend to be like that
