"Finally, Alastair" Skylar softly enunciated, running her hand over the horizontal jawlines of her mate, still lying on the bed, unconscious, clearly unaware of his surroundings. "I have missed you so much, too bad you can't remember what we've been through but I hope you don't, they are memories I don't ever want you to recall" she leaned down and pressed her lips against his cheek, smiling in content to be in the presence of her mate again, after their little departure. Skylar wheeled her head over to Maye. "How can we rouse him?"
Maye stepped forward, her steps a bit hesitant as remorse once again drown her. She moved over to the mattress, noticed how her boy had grown to be a mature and marvelous young man, his mother would probably smile wherever she was. With shaky hands and a gulp, Maye slowly pulled down the blankets covering his chest to his lower abdomen, they all stared in awe at the silver star on his chest that glowed furiously.
Skylar rubbernecked at the woman from head to toe, noted her convulsing form and excruciating breathings, sweating and fussing in tribulation. "I could kill you right now"Glady instantly got down on her knees. "Your highness, please have lenience, I didn't realize he was the King""No one deserves to be treated like a marionette, witch!" Skylar spat, her eyes louring and her voice eminent."Please, I don't want to die!" The witch wept, her body shaking. "I will do anything, I will give anything!" She avouched.Skylar nodded. "You have a daughter" it wasn't a question. "Your daughter shall be my servant, I don't seem to have any in this lifetime"********************************She slowly trailed her finger on his jawline to his lips, she could never forget how those carmine lips used to feel on hers, they were
"You are the Maye" it wasn't a question, he stared at the witch approximately, who gulped at his infiltrating gaze, feeling diminutive. She nodded.Skylar stared between them, she could sense the awkwardness and placidness from Maye but nothing came from Karam, she got nothing from him other than the faint mate scent.Karam but his inner cheek, his posture tranquil and collected. "The one who left me in the tomb?""Karam..."The male instantly chipped in. "My name is Azrael" his voice came out firm and dominant, Maye and Shailyn trembled at the sound of his voice, both whimpering in submissive. "You think sealing a five years old kid in a tomb was shielded""I was scared" Maye's voice wavered."Of course, you were" Karam scoffed.Skylar hated not being able to read the Lycan before her, it was vexing and she believed everyone felt it too.
"Let me out from here!" She shrieked, using her vexation to kick on the iron bars and metal with her foot, hands instantly going to her toe as she grunted in anguish and jumped on one foot. "Bloody bars!" She dropped her leg when the pain ebbed.She wheeled in circles, noticing the pesky sight of the cell.It was opaque, the irons were stale and rusted, the roof was leaking with drops of water dripping on the cold and wet floor but no ray of sunlight anywhere. The walls were stained with a red liquid, she shivered at the thought of what the red substance could be, especially with those fingerprints and traces on the wall, while this smell of blood and corpses filled the air. She instantly went back to that bar, gripping them hard, and shook them with force, letting her voice echo through every hole. "Let me out from here, it's fetid in here. You better come kill me before this whiff does"She kicked the iron bars again b
"Am sorry, am no longer a wolf"Those words lingered towering in the air than aimed at, they kept playing over her head, her mind heading in different places, trying to process the meaning of those words."What's that supposed to mean, you are a werewolf!" Her voice came out with frustration, she hated when she didn't get all the information that she needed, she hated being left in the dark, she hated being clueless about a situation.Ivan lowered his head in shame, being unable to stare into the eyes of the love of his life, they had turned him into something that he wasn't, something that he would never want to be. "Am sorry""Stop apologizing and just tell me already!" She grabbed his collar and shook him, her orange eyes glowing furiously."He is not a wolf, little one. He was never a wolf" the man beside the King spoke, finding more amusement in the scene more th
"How long have you been here?" Shailyn inquired her mate, they were now crouching on the grimy floor, as much as she would have preferred standing, her legs were getting numb, it was a nuisance she didn't wish to tolerate, Ivan didn't care where he sat, he was physically depleted."A week, I think" he retorted."How did it happen, I just don't understand. How could that devil be your father?" She grilled.Ivan shrugged. "I came home one day and he was there, claiming to be my biological father and the people I thought were my parents confirmed it. They put up a fight to protect me but.." he paused, his mind flashing back to that bloody day, the day his life once again changed forever. "He killed them"Skylar gasped. "Oh, my goddess!""Every day I battle with the quilt but I could never forgive myself. It's my fault they are gone"Shailyn stared at him, he was
Shailyn groaned at the sudden brightness, sealing her eyes with her hand till her vision got clearer, she noticed an odd-looking tree standing at the side and realized they were at the border of the midnight pack, she sighed in relief, knowing they were safe."I could tell you have been in there for a while, you got have gotten yourself out," Adelaide noticed the awful state of her mistress.Now, this was a secret she hadn't told anyone, not even Skylar and she preferred to keep it that way, she didn't want to seem or appear weak because she wasn't weak but she had lost half of her powers when she broke the bond with Skylar, it was the only way she could prevent herself from dying and gain her memories back, it was the only way she could be with Ivan."Tham you for saving us Adelaide" Shailyn avoided the topic, smiling weakly while still in the arms of her mate, and suddenly, Ravana appeared beside Adelaide. 
"It's here," Ivan announced his pitch-black eyes reimbursing to their ordinary chocolate bronzed color as they came to a stop after sprinting through the thickest part of the woodland.Shailyn stared at the window-like door on the bed of the forest. Her eyes twinkled deep orange and the lock on the door fragmented and the door flare open, they both stared at the leather that led deep under.Shailyn crunched her teeth in indignation, the damn Alpha must have caught the She-wolf nescient just she as she was taken, she glanced up at Ivan and the demon nodded, Shailyn's body wiggled when another set of boom rumbled from the sky, throbbing the earth once again. "Come on", she asserted to her mate, instantly inside, Ivan shortly followed after her.Both clambered down till they reached the last step, they found themselves in exact semidarkness, and nebulous voices reverberated around the space. Shailyn stepped down, Ivan insta
Mate, mate, mate!Those were the only words that fogged the wolf's sense as her paws hit the muddy floor of the green forest, her speed inflating with every passing second, startling the already roaring forest. Her eyes gleamed the brightest yet darkest shade of purple.She could hear the screams of people, their cries, she could sense the anguish from every corner, she could sniff the fresh smell of blood mixed with mud, she ran faster, almost flying because of her speed, a yowl left her mouth, wanting to alarm her presence to her mate, she was coming for him.Five minutes later, she entered the clearing of the once-prosperous Midnight pack, it was now a complete shadow of its former self, it was ravaged. Fire everywhere, dead bodies, the cries of children, and the proud statue of King Caesar that once stood in the center of the pack had now crumbled to the ground in pieces, meeting its awful destination.
