AURORA’S POV

I watched in horror as blood gushed out of the wound. It took me a few moments to realize what he had done.

“Why the hell did you do that?” I shouted, making him lay in my lap.

I was about to use my magic to assess him when he held my hands and shook his head.

He gasped for breath and muttered, “I… I have to die…”

“NO! I am so sorry I blamed you earlier… I… I was just angry with myself…I…”

He struggled to get up as he said, “You don’t understand… My soul is linked to The Dark Lord… Till I am alive, he can come back for you… for Tiara…”

I felt like someone had punched me in the gut. I grasped his hand and said in a panicked voice “You don’t have to die… I will find a way to unlink you…”

He groaned in pain and managed to mutter, “It i

I am worried about our baby.”“Excuse me, mister! Is this your first time at a hospital? Please keep your voice low!”I burst out giggling as I saw the nurse chastise Tyson and storm away. I gasped his hand before he could pursue the nurse.“Do you not want to see our baby?”“F***! Aurora. If I wasn’t so tempted to see our baby on the screen, I would have never come to this wretched place.”Exhaling deeply, I said in a rueful voice,

I gripped the hand of the chair tightly as I studied my surroundings to keep myself distracted.The cabin was just like a gynecologist's cabin should be; jet white walls with charts of babies and fetuses at various stages. A particular image of a beautiful baby girl caught my eyes.I had always loved babies but after Leonard's betrayal, I had stayed away from any serious relationships.“Ah! Ms. Aurora… right on time I see. Your reports are here.” A sweet yet firm voice sounded in the room drawing my attention.I turned my head in the direction of the voice to find my charming and energetic doctor standing with a smile.

I had to leave before I ended up killing my brother.I shoved Aslan away and rushed to the underground chamber. Forcing myself to take long, deep breaths; I sat on the green, ornate throne. It was made of pure Jadite. Being my birthstone, it always calmed me down.A few minutes later Aslan came rushing into the chamber. Seeing me seated on the throne he halted in front of me and stood with his head bowed.I was the king of the Fire Dragons. He was bound by convention to show me respect.

I had a feeling that Tyson ordered people to be killed just like we order food in a restaurant.I massaged my head trying to wrap my head over the things that had happened. Michael just walked away as if in a trance.I had a feeling that he would text all my friends that I was in Texas. No one would come looking for me and I couldn’t call anyone. In short, I was completely screwed.The door creaked open drawing me out of my thoughts.“I have brought food for you,” Aslan said walking in.“I don’t want to eat anything…” I said lowering my eyes.

What is so important that they are willing to risk their lives?”“I think I know what they are after… Look at this…” He said handing me a green file.My eyebrows furrowed as I asked, “Why are you checking Lina’s profile again? Don’t tell me that you think she is the traitor. Do you have to be so paranoid?”“I am sure that she is the traitor. She is the one who tipped the werewolves about ‘The Heart of Magic.’”“You can’t be serious. She saved your life…”“Just to

I drifted in and out of sleep catching only parts of the conversation going on.Warm and heavy breathing on my face startled me and I snapped open my eyes. I gasped as I met the most beautiful pair of eyes I had ever seen; grey with golden streaks.He lowered his head and bit my lower lip. The sharp sting brought me back to my senses.

I shouldn’t have trusted Lina. I can’t rest until she is found.”“If you want to tire yourself, go ahead brother…” He said with a smirk and got back to drinking.I let out a long deep sigh.

Everything about her was perfection; deep, blue eyes juxtaposing her long golden locks, cherry red lips, and a perfect figure.Her face flushed slightly and she said, “Thank you for your high appraisal. Some people think that my beauty makes me a weak person.”“How did you know… can you read my mind?” I asked in an appalled voice.“I can’t read minds but I can sense moods. With ye

    TYSON’S POVI was stunned when I didn’t find the stone in the locker. “I… had kept it here…” I stuttered.“I know you are not lying but where do you think it is?” Adam whispered a few inches from my ears sending shivers down my spine. It was too comfortable and dangerous to stay here alone with him.I gasped his hand and teleported back to the previous location before he could realize it.“If you want to save your daughter, tell me where the Heart of Magic is?” He gritted out grasping my neck.My eyes widened in surprise when I saw Aurora behind him. Without any warning, she thrust a dagger inside him. “Ahhhh!!!” His bloodcurdling scream sounded as he dropped to the ground.“Are you okay? Where is Tiara?” I asked jumping over Adam’s body to reach Aurora.Adam’s evil laughter sounded as he jumped to his feet. He pull

A few minutes later I had fallen on the ground, drenched in sweat and panting with exertion.My magical powers weren’t enough to penetrate the dark shield. There was only one way now…Teleporting to the sanctuary, I took out ‘The Heart of Magic’. I shivered at the currents of power coursed through me by just holding it.I was about to use it when my mind veered to the Old Lady’s words. ‘Every time you use this stone, you will lose a part of your soul. It will suck you of all happiness, love, kindness and all that will be left in a dark, cold corpse devoid of any feelings.’My hands trembled and my heart raced faster than horses. Aslan, Tyson, and Zarina had already taken their positions as per the plan.If I didn’t save Tiara on time, I would risk all of their l

    AURORA’S POV We sat on the four sides of the map and joined our hands together.“When we give you the signal you all have to cut your palm and let the blood drip on the map. No one speaks in between. Is that clear?”We all nodded our heads and held hands forming a circle. Zarina and I closed our eyes and started chanting the spell.A first everything was dark but as the spell advanced, I could see glimpses of visions between the darkness but it was all hidden behind some haze…Sensing the tug at my hands, I opened my eyes and slit open my palm. The others did the same. All the blood trickled to the center and then nothing…“Damn! I had so much faith that this spell will work!” Zarina said tearing her hair.“It did work… Not the way locator spell works but I saw visions. Tiara is on Earth. We can’t sense her because she is shielded by some dark magic.&rdqu

It is the meeting point of the most powerful seers in the world. What if someone decides to put a hex or a spell on you?”“You both were busy. Someone tipped me off about it and the lead was too good to wait.”“Tell me at least you found something useful, brother.”“I must say that the risk was worth it. I have a blueprint of The Dark Lord’s plan now. His plan is divided into phases. Phase one involves kidnapping Tiara.”“Damn! Is that why you sent Aurora to the sanctuary hastily?”“Hmm… I plan to keep them safe from this mess.”“If we don’t let him complete phase one, we could win easily,” Aslan said in a hopeful voi

When she didn’t come even after an hour’s wait, I decided to leave.I had just turned to walk away when Aurora materialized before me. Startled, I took a few steps backward.Smiling at me, she said, “Sorry for the delay, Caleb. Tyson insisted that I should wait till you start leaving just to make sure… you know how paranoid he is…”“I am surprised that he even let you come to meet me.”She snorted and said, “I am not his slave. I don’t need his permission.”“Alright… alright… by the way where is our little angel?”“I left her with As

I put it around Tiara’s neck when I took her from you and teleported to the sanctuary. Raina was already waiting with our baby there… If only I knew Zizi could kill…”“Don’t you think we should tell her about Tyson before he burns the whole forest down?” Raina said abruptly.Letting out a deep sigh I said, “Tyson took whatever you said to his heart.

My heart beat like thunder as I moved to the front of the cage.“Zizi, Don’t tell me you killed the baby… You just wanted to use her as leverage right…” I asked in a shaking voice.“So what if I killed her… What do you care?”My knees gave way and I fell to the ground. Tears rolled down my cheeks and a scream erupted from my soul. This had to be a lie… She couldn’t do this…Tyson kneeled beside me and pulled me into a hug, “I am so sorry, Aslan. I… I am such a failure… I should have come up with something better…”“No, Tyson you didn’t fail… I was the one who failed.”Jumping to my feet I grasped the bars of the cage and roared, “I should have listened to Tyson.
