Mia"What is this?" Jack asked.I nodded. What was that? I was about to ask Neigh that same question. Was he sure that he wanted us to get home safely? I was suspicious of him because he looked like he was about to kill us instead."The exit hole." He smiled at Jack. "You are always full of questions.""I learned from best." He said, pointing at me.I blushed. He didn't have to put it all on my head."Are you sure this is the exit?" I asked Neigh."Or it is a grave for burying those who came to the island for daring to step in?" Jack added.Neigh laughed. "Why are you being funny when you are leaving? Even if it is a grave for burying those who came to the island, would I do that to you after all that we had been through together? It would be nice if you guys can trust me as I trust and see you as my friends.""It's sad that we will have to break up now, friend." Jack grinned at him.I sighed. He was making it too obvious that he didn't want to stay here. I believed Neigh wanted us to
Mia"Yay! We did it." We screamed as we got to my room, jumping around like kids with our hands held together.I inhaled the air, loving the familiar smell of my bedroom. It was good to be back home. I couldn't wait to have a long soak in the bath tub and sleep for hours on end. I would pick the comfort of my bed anytime over being on that island but Albert came first this minute. We had to free him before we start to think of rest.We should go to his study, check if there was a material that could help us track his whereabouts. We would find his broken soul, kill him, save Albert and be back to our big, happy family. I missed mum and I knew that she would have missed me greatly. She would have called while I was at the forest and probably worry herself to death for not being able to reach me.I sighed. I would send her a text later to tell her that I was fine and apologize for not calling because I was busy. I couldn't afford to call her because I didn't trust myself or my voice. Wh
MiaI sank to my knees beside Quinn and wrapped my hand around him. I hated to see him that way. It broke my heart to see him that way. He looked ragged with pain and my heart constricted with more pain at the sight of him, even though I had my own problems to deal with. I was annoyed and enraged at the abduction of the statue of their father as the boys were and I wondered who could have taken him.Quinn's emotional outburst was making it hard on us all and I didn't know what I was going to do about it. I didn't know how I was going to help him. I sat there though, wrapping my hands around his shoulder as I laid my head on his back and hoped that was going to be enough for him.I thought of who could have taken Albert so we could know how to find him. It couldn't have been the dark wizard as he had been injured and couldn't morph into his physical form. The only apprentice that I knew with him was Sasha and she was dead. I had been there when she was buried so there could be no doubt
Ethan"What are you planning, my lord?"I scowled at Rudolph as he walked into my palace. His voice had always been loud but I didn't know it had always been this loud. It was giving me headache and I cringed as I rubbed at the sides of my head.What was wrong with me? Headache? I had never had headache. Everything had been strange since I had fallen on that slope and hit my head on a rock. I was supposed to have healed immediately but apparently, I hadn't. I had reportedly been unconscious for four days, something which had never been heard of and gotten my people worried.I was a vampire and should have healed fast from the fall. I shouldn't have gone unconscious if I had had my head bashed open by a rock, it was embarrassing that I had done that because I hit my head against a rock.I had been weak. I still felt weak at times. I could feel the fatigue of the other day in my veins but the doctor had said that it was going to go.Rudo
QuinnI knew it. I knew dad would have something in his library. I knew he would have done some research on them. The man was well versed and knowledgeable in research that I wondered how he had everything and had the time to date and his work."You are coming with us." I told Mia as I brought out the map and ran my eyes over it, memorizing the landscapes and the miles we would have to walk.Those bastards must have come with a private plane as their land wasn't accessible by road from where we were. I couldn't stop wondering why they would go through all that stress to come here when we had no business with them.She snorted and rolled her eyes. "As if you have any other alternative. Would I have stayed at home and wait for you even if you had told me that I couldn't come with you?"I chuckled. She had a point. She wouldn't have stayed at home. What was the point of arguing with her? Moreover, I couldn't leave her at home and have something happen
Mia"We are almost there."I snorted at Quinn's words, hoping that he said that for his own benefit and not mine. I was going to flip out if they were for me. I was strong, stronger than I looked. I kept telling them that but they wouldn't listen. They needed to stop treating me like a baby or a deformed bunny. They made uncomfortable and insisted that I was meant to have gotten used to their preferential treatment of me by now.Get used to what? As if it was that easy. I snorted at the ridiculous idea. If only they knew how much the independence streak in me cringed at their overprotective attitude, they would have stopped all this while. Or would they? I thought again. I didn't think so. Those boys were so arrogant and self-conscious that they believed themselves to be better. They would have told my independent streak to stop being stubborn if it was a person and they could meet it.I couldn't wait to have my transformation complete and maybe they would learn to stop seeing me as t
EthanI was bored. I was bored with the meeting already. Was it always this long? I couldn't believe that I had always loved this. What was this? This was just long talk and nothing else between it. I needed something fun and somehow, my mind knew what it wanted.I looked out of the window. Had the werewolves not gotten back from their vacation yet? They were supposed to be here by now. They should have gotten home and realized that their father was stolen. They should have been told that we were the one who took him. I had made sure my men bared their fangs so his people wouldn't make any mistake about who had raided their house. His people should have called them and they should have cut short their vacation.I wondered if they were going to come. Maybe they weren't. Maybe they didn't care about their father as I thought. What kind of sons went on a vacation when their father was in a state as that? Sons who didn't give a damn about their father.I didn't know how I knew this but I
QuinnI couldn't believe it. It felt like a dream. Had this truly happened? This couldn't be so. Was it? Had it truly happened? Did he just order us to be thrown into the dungeon after what he had done? What was wrong with him? I had thought that we could clear the misunderstanding in the air but it seemed he had intentionally come to our territory to do what he did. Maybe if I had spoken with him, I would have known what his motive was. I couldn't believe that he had done this on purpose. I still wanted to believe that he had attacked the wrong werewolf pack. Maybe another pack had done some injustice to him and he had thought that we were the one. I couldn't think of what I was going to say to that. We could only resolve this amicably.Maybe I was being too trusting but I didn't know what else to think of the situation. We had always been living in peace so it surprised me that this could have happened.The guards pushed us roughly into the cell and slammed it shut. I jumped at the
