In the prison of the council, Levy was still hanging by the chains. The pain which was inflicted on her skin did not let her breathe while the places which were whipped by the whip laced with poison of ivy made her cough out blood once in a while. Her skin was burning and she knew that she was having a fever because of the poison of ivy touching her skin. For witches and wizards, the poison of ivy was like a bane which could kill them if they even took a sip of it, and touching it was similar to humans holding mercury with their bare hands, only then times worse. Zac did not return to the cell even though more than an hour had passed, where he went Levy had no idea but she did know that he would definitely come back. Levy couldn’t help but count this as a small blessing because if that man had continued whipping her, she would have definitely died. Levy used her remaining strength as she pulled her head up and looked at the front of the cell, the door of the dungeon was open since
The young guard returned with the keys and then opened the shackles which were tied around Levy’s wrist, once the shackles were opened the two guards held Levy who fell down and then placed their arms around her limp body as they dragged her out of the prison. With the two carrying Levy, they were able to get her out of the dungeons and into the infirmary where the high-profile criminals were treated before their execution dates were decided. The prison was a long tower-like building and with three to four floors distributed on each stair level, it took the two guards a long time before they could get Levy inside the infirmary. The young guard was even panting as he pushed Levy inside and then looked around but did not see the healer who was usually sitting behind her desk. “ Where is Dixie ?” The young guard asked as he looked around the room and did not find the woman he was looking for. “She must have gone to have lunch,” replied the other guard with a click of his tongue. “ Da
“ What…why is here?” Zac panicked, the witch was out of the cell and she was in no condition to be presented in front of Elder Gabriel’s son. Senior Charlie glared at Zac and then said in a gruff voice, “ Why else? She is the one who killed his father. So of course, he would wish to question her. He had already submitted an application when he found out that we have caught the witch who was behind the killing of Elder Gabriel, you better find the witch because this application was approved by none other than Elder Griffiths!” After he finished speaking he hurried out of the office to see Rayden Jones, the son of Elder Gabriel who was waiting for him in the lobby of the prison. Behind him, Zac was left to curse as he too rushed out of the office to go looking for the witch who was now on the run. Charlie stepped inside the lobby with a hurried pace, he looked at the man who was standing in the middle of the lobby with his black hair tied in a bun behind his head and dressed in a
Zac pursed his lips angrily, he wanted to say something more but then he heard Charlie’s voice,“ What are you three doing here?” The man was guiding a tall man who looked like a thug whom no one would want to mess up with, all three of them couldn’t help but straighten up their spines when they saw the man who was walking towards them. “ Take Master Rayden to where that woman is right now!”‘ This is Rayden?’ Zac looked at the man who was two heads taller than him and gulped silently as his gaze fell on those bulging muscles. ‘ If he takes a swipe at me, I will be so dead.’“ Well?” Seeing that neither of the three guards was moving, Rayden arched a brow and drawled, “ You four do know where the witch is right?” As he spoke, he lightly glared at the three guards before he turned to the head of the prison and then said, “ It will be really troublesome for you if you were to lie to me, I hope you do know this, Charlie.” “ O…Of course, I do,” Charlie bowed his head in front of Rayden a
While the enforcers were on the run to capture Levy, the latter was trying to hide from the surveillance cameras and the guards who were patrolling inside the prison. It was just as she expected, it was simply impossible for her to get out of this prison even when she was trying her best to sneak out while hiding from the guards. As she walked out of a corridor, Levy noticed a surveillance camera zooming right onto her and ducked, while keeping an eye on the one behind which was moving behind her. With sweat dripping down her forehead, Levy waited for the surveillance camera to move while worrying about the one which was behind her.“ Come on, move,” if the surveillance camera did not turn to the side then she was afraid that she will end up being caught by the one which was rotating behind. Fortunately, the camera moved and she was able to rush out in the other direction where the camera was not looking, the sounds of chains and shackles clanking on the floor echoed as she rushed
Levy clenched her finger when she heard the voice which was so cold that it seemed to be brimming with nothing but ice. Her hand which was about to dial Logan’s number paused, in case Rayden heard the sound of the dial tone, she was sure that he will catch her but if she didn’t make this call then how will she get out of this place? With her gaze dropping to the telephone which she was holding in her lap, Levy thought that she was standing in the middle of a cliff and a chasm, if she did not call then she will stay trapped in this place but if she did then she will have to fend against Rayden until Logan arrives, can she do it? ‘ Of course, I can’t,’ if she had her hands free of the restraints then maybe she would have had a chance to deal with those shifters who were waiting to catch her but with her hands tied, there was no way she could fight them but she had no other choice in front of her. Levy pursed her lips and then with shaking fingers, she pressed the buttons of the landl
When he arrived at the prison he thought that he would see Levy at once, after all, he knew that the council will not allow her to escape from the prison but now the cell where she was supposed to be was empty and upon seeing the empty cell, Logan’s corruption could not help but flare up.His golden eyes slowly turned black as he turned to face the prisoners completely who were yet to speak and then repeated his question, “Did you not hear my question? I am asking you where is the witch?”“ Yo looks like that witch has caused a lot of ruckus, so many people are coming to look for her,” one of the prisoners could not help but snicker as he clapped his hands.Logan felt his brows twitch, he was already in a mood to kill yet someone was foolishly provoking him yet again. He looked at the bar of the cell which was rusting and looked quite old before he snapped it by curling his fingers around the rod and pulling it out. ‘ Kill them,’ a voice hissed in his head and this time he did nothin
Zac was furious, no he was livid. He had never thought that one day he would be fooled by a witch like this, what was more while they were looking for this witch, he had been scolded by his senior until he felt like he had committed a sin and all of this was because of this witch! She was the one who harmed him, if not for her——A dark glint flashed in his eyes as Zac pulled Levy down on the floor and causing her to raise her hands and almost touch the whip which was choking her but then the witch seemed to have realised that she could not touch the whip which was why she dropped her hands as her eyes rolled in her eye sockets.Seeing this Zac sneered and said, “ Don’t even try to play dead in front of me, you witch. I have seen through your tricks and they don’t impress me anymore so you better stay put! You are not going to fool anyone like this!”Levy flailed her hands as she tried to reach for something which could help her. With her fingers stretching over she looked for somethin
Levy didn’t even get a chance to breathe when Logan engulfed her in his arms. He tightly held her as he whispered,” Fuck, you scared me.” When Levy heard him say those words, her eyes softened. She knew that only a few minutes had gone by since she was taken to the magical realm by the goddess of magic. She then felt his body go pliant against herself as he questioned, “Why did you do it? You knew that you could have died and our child ….” He whispered as he looked at her abdomen. His wolf curled up protectively, fortunately, the child was still alive. Either through magic or the power that Logan had breathed into Levy’s body when her soul disappeared. “I didn’t want to do that,” Levy’s eyes darkened when she heard his words. With her hand placed on her abdomen, she said, “I had no idea that I was pregnant with our pup. If I had known then no matter how strong the resentment of my past was, I would have stopped her no matter what.” “Fortunately, I am fine and so is our pup, looks
“Happiness is subjective, my child. Once my daughter’s memories fade away, she will forget you,” said the Goddess with a calm voice. “But I cannot trust a man born from a shifter with my daughter.”Logan clenched his fists and said, “You are wrong. Levy is not like that, and you know that. She is the future of Elaine, and Elaine did not forget what Jasper and Alyssa did to her. Even though centuries passed by she kept that pain in her heart and soul.”“Even after her death, her soul did not forget the pain and continued to harbour the resentment that she could have forgotten,” Logan knew that he was playing with fire but he would rather burn to death than let Levy leave him. “I might have Jasper’s blood but I am not a vain and greedy man like him, I promise to love Levy and keep her happy. I will cherish her no matter what.” “I have heard these words, my child,” said the woman with a smile on her face. Though she was smiling there was a hint of contempt in her eyes. “I have heard the
Logan glanced at Derek. At that moment he felt like his heart was burning with a fire, one that he wished he could set free on the world. What was going on? His mate, who was fine just a moment ago was now dead. “Why? Why did this happen to her?” Logan questioned. His mate deserved better than this, no one deserved the world. So how come? Was there no God up there? How could they watch his mate lose her life like such?Derek opened his mouth and closed it back. He knew that Logan was in pain and he was not in a condition to understand anything. He reached out his hand and then held it in front of Logan before saying, “Take my hand, I can bring you and her to the southern palace.” The mana in his body was running low but he could still warp to the Southern Palace. Logan pursed his lips, he looked at Levy whose face was getting paler by the minute and then reached out to hold Derek’s hand. He did not know what lay in the Southern Palace but Levy was the one who asked him to go there
Carlisle’s expression changed. He wanted to escape but Derek seemed to have understood his intentions. He raised his hand and drew another array, the vines that had caught Carlisle in a vice-like grip, twisted and turned as they started to climb higher and higher until the vines had covered him completely. Derek didn’t even bat an eye as he tightened the vines, the sound of a mournful scream echoed in the distance before blood and flesh gushed out of the vines that had twisted around Carlisle's body. “You!” Alyssa turned to look at Derek. Her eyes flashed cruelly, she looked at Derek and sneered, “You killed your brother? Mavis was right, you have always been a stain on my blood.” When Derek heard her words, he calmly glanced at the woman. He said, “I might be a stain in the name of the dark witches and wizards but what about you, Father? You have killed your sister not to mention how many families have you ruined. No matter what, compared to you, I am still nothing.” Alyssa stare
The two people fell together. Alyssa who noticed that Levy had grown stronger, realized that the plan that she had come up with, seemed to have fallen through. “You have always been one pain in the bottom, sister,” Alyssa snarled, showing her dark teeth, that were rotting because of her body deteriorating with time. She raised her hand and then pushed herself off the boulder floating over her body. With the dagger that she had made with the claws of the first shifter, she aimed at Levy’s heart, with a twisted expression. But Levy raised her hand and drew an array to block the dagger. The sharp blade clashed with her shield, however, the dagger was made with the claw of a shifter. The two powers clashed with one another causing sharp waves to rise from the spot of the collision. The shield cracked and Levy waved her hand sending Alyssa to the side of the mountainous wall. However, Alyssa didn’t let Levy escape. She ignored the pain at her back and rushed to where Levy was, she caug
‘She has been preparing for this day for centuries,’ Elaine whispered. ‘And the dark witches and wizards are under her control. She must have deliberately licked out the wrong information. We have no time, you need to let me take over. Only when I have full control can I finish the last half of the curse.’ Levy thought about it, she had no way to get out of this cell as Alyssa seemed to have prepared it just for her. Her eyes narrowed and she said, ‘I am willing but I have one condition.’ ‘What is it?’ Elaine asked. ‘You will not kill or hurt Logan like you did the last time, no matter what the situation. I know that he shares the same blood as the man who betrayed us but he is my mate, I cannot lose him. As long as he lives, I am willing to do anything,’ Levy waited for the witch’s response as she had gone quiet.‘I will not kill him. Since you are my essence and he is your mate, I cannot take him away. I will think of a way to stop the curse from affecting him,’ Elaine gave her w
“Shut up!” Alyssa turned to look at Levy. Her eyes flashed with anger, and with her feet turning around she marched up to Levy, her chest heaved up and down as she said, “What do you mean by cowardly? I am the one who united the dark witches and wizards! I was the one who killed your mother and I was the one who took your father and mate away from you.” “Cowardly? Hah!” Alyssa’s eyes turned black. Her lips curled disdainfully, “Have you forgotten who sent you to the prison? It was I, dear sister... I was the one who ruined your life. All your lives!” “And yet you are here,” Levy smiled without sounding offended. She glanced at the rotten body that was patched and sewn together like a doll that had been sewn together because of a child’s stubbornness, who refused to throw it away. “In this pathetic condition.” “Elaine, you seemed to have turned much more talkative and bold than before. Don’t worry, sooner or later you will be in the same condition,” Alyssa then raised the vial that
Even though Derek spoke those words as soon as Levy breathed life into his corpse, he was a step too late. The trap that the dark witch had set for Levy was in motion, the second Levy tried to rescue Derek. She knew that Levy would try to save Derek the second, she found out about his death. The two of them have been so close to one another and Derek had even placed his life on the life to protect Levy. So how could that woman ignore him? Thus, she had created a port-way using Derek’s corpse which would lead Levy to her. The dark fumes rose in the morgue before ——“LEVY!” Logan’s eyes turned red with anger when he saw that his mate was taken away. His face twisted as he walked over to where Derek was lying. Logan did not care if this man just woke from the slumber of death, he only cared about one thing and that was ——Derek was the key to everything. “Where is my mate? Where did you take her? She saved your rotten life O Neil!” Logan’s fingers curled around Derek’s throat, if not
“W..what?” The glass in Levy’s hands slipped when she heard about Derek’s death. Pieces of glass were scattered all over the ground. “What did you say?” There was no way Derek was dead, she just met him a few days ago, how could he be dead all of a sudden? She asked Logan, “Who told you such ridiculous news?”“No one,” Logan sighed. He was at the council where the body of Derek was brought before being placed in the morgue. “I saw his corpse being carried to the morgue. His body was found by the forest rangers and they sent him to the council.” Logan knew that Derek was important to Levy, and even though she did not like him romantically, she cared for him just as much as Derek cared for her. This news must have shattered her in a way he couldn’t even imagine. “Ho…how could he be dead?” Levy muttered, her feet shaking as she staggered behind. If not for Logan, she would have fallen on the floor. “Careful,” Logan said as he reached out and caught her waist. “Can…can you bring me t
