Chapter Thirty-Eight

Mirah

Our family's residence was just as I remembered it. Completely devoid of warmth.

Guards littered every corner as always, and the servants all stood in a straight file in the large living room. I felt Zeke's hands hold my wrists reassuringly, reminding me that I wasn't alone.

“You're here,” my mother's smile froze on her lips, when her gaze darted towards a cold-faced Zeke.

She didn't get to speak, when my father came inside.

Alongside Kathryn.

Words choked in my throat, and a disbelieving look made its way up my face.

“What's the meaning of all these?” I asked in a cracked voice.

My father ignored me, his focus on Zeke. “And who's this person?”

“Someone you'd regret crossing.” Zeke said, and in spite of myself, chills ran down my spine.

My father's face darkened, but before he could say a word, I stepped forward taking a protective stance before Zeke.

“Don't move.” I said.

    Chapter Thirty-Nine. MirahHe was here again. In my dreams. And this time, he was looking angry.“Xavier?” I'd never felt so afraid, as I was at that moment. I was in my room, and he was leaning across the wall just a few meters away from me.“There's no time, Princess.” The lines on his face deepened.I swallowed. “Time for what?”Unlike the last time, he was fully clad in a black shirt and equally black trouser. He pushed off the walls at my words, and came closer to where I was sitting on the bed.“Convince Zeke to take you to Weasels.” His hand brushed against my forehead, and I closed my eyes, suddenly losing my sense of focus.“W-why should -” I couldn't think straight, and it had to be his fault. He was doing something to me.He finally smiled, and I thought about how goodlooking he was. “You, my Princess will do all my bidding. 'Cause that's what you're meant to do. Isn't that right?” His breath fanned my face.I found myself nodding to his words.“Good girl.

    Chapter Forty Zeke “Move,” I growled. The asshole ignored my words. “You look enraged, Brother.” Alex smirked, crossing his arms and leaning on the wall. “Is your little human girlfriend missing?” He probed. And that did it. I finally lost it. Punches. Yells. The sound of a staff ramming at my back. But I felt no pain. By the time my sanity returned, Alex and his mother were both lying on the floor, their bodies tainted with blood. My father's eyes blazed as he snarled at me. “What have you done?!” He barked. “Done?” I scoffed, moving towards him. His grip on his royal staff tightened. “Twice, King Elliott. My woman disappeared twice in a row. You have few days to bring her back, else the whole Weasels would pay for it.” I stared down into his eyes. “Are you speaking to me in that manner?” His eyes narrowed. I casted a nonchalant gaze towards Alex whose wounds were begining to heal. “And I'm sure you don't want to lose a candidate to the throne.” I gave hi

    Chapter Forty-One MirahI was tied up on a chair when I came to. My legs couldn't feel the ground, and out of instincts I tried springing up.“Help,” I called out weakly.“Finally,” A voice said, and I turned my attention towards its direction. A tall man walked into the expansive room, and on seeing who it was, my blood boiled over in anger.“You.” I hissed. “Yes, me. I've been waiting for you to wake up.” He smiled, and went over to sit on the bed. It was then I realized that I was actually floating in the air.“What have you done?” A strange pain tugged at my heart.“I casted a spell on you, Princess. I'm using you as a point of contact to your little vampire boyfriend. Poor guy would be lured here soon.” His nonchalant attitude gave off the vibe that he was just talking about the weather, and relaxation.Like he wasn't talking about the danger he'd plunged Zeke into.I took a deep breath. “Can you tell me what you are?” I asked, lowering my voice.“I'm a rogue-b

    Chapter Forty-Two Mirah“Kitten,” A voice called out gently. It was unmistakably Zeke's. I shut my eyes even more tightly. I was probably dreaming.His hand caressed mine, and I sighed at the feel. “Who did this to you?” My eyes jerked open at his hardened voice. He was staring down at me. I wasn't dreaming, like I thought. “How did-” My lips parted.After going through a bout of torture from that bastard, he'd thrown me into a cell manned by gargoyles. I'd fallen asleep while crying.“We fell into his trap,” Hostility shone in Zeke's eyes, and I couldn't help but stretch my hand towards him.He caught it midway, and gently held with his hands. “Did he do this to you?”Tears poured out from my eyes, effectively shutting out my ability to respond. I threw myself at him. Thankfully, Xavier hadn't cuffed either of us.“I knew you'd come. I missed you.” The tears rained down faster.He tensed for a moment, before his hands went up my back. “Shush, Kitten. I'm here now.”

Luckily, Xavier was arrogant enough not to notice the fact that we easily allowed ourselves to be captured.While he was gloating in self-victory, Qyle had activated the secret amulet which Queen Belinda had given us before we set out. It was a powerful amulet, known to disarm even the most powerful of Rogue-brids.I sat outside the tent which we set up, staring at the blazing bonfire in the cold night. Nastasha and Qyle joined me.“If our plans had gone awry, were you really going to allow him take your powers?” She asked, pulling the blanket even closer around her body.I didn't respond. I pondered over her words, and at the realization that I'd have really done it just to save Mirah's life, my eyes widened.“What's next?” Qyle asked, shaking me out of my thoughts.I heaved a sigh. “He wasn't acting in isolation. I'm sure he had someone supporting him.”“And what you're saying is-” Nata

My body felt sore, in a good way of course.My phone lit up on the bedside table, and I reached for it. “Hey, girl.” I murmured.“Still alive?” Nessa asked, and I chuckled.It was great that I was still alive. She might have uttered it as a joke, but I knew what I went through in the past few hours.“I am,” I laughed. “I'm at Zeke's.” I added.“You guys made up?” She didn't sound surprised. Trust Nessa with her matchmaking skills that didn't apply to her own self.“Obviously,” I yawned and got off the bed, and headed towards the bathroom.“Let's meet up when we can. Your boyfriend has enjoyed your company more than I have in years.” She grumbled.I couldn't resist laughing. “Maybe if you find a man, you wouldn't need my company so much.” I teased.I could imagine her gagging face.“Nah, I'm not ready for any commitment of any sort.

You didn't object when I dealt with his goons sometime ago. Why are you upset about this matter?” That was what I couldn't comprehend.“Because,” she looked up, and began walking over to me. She halted right at my front, and jabbed a finger at my chest.“You kept it away from me. You took matters into your own hands. Zeke, I don't want you to fight my battles for me.” She was crying now.My heart broke, and I tried to hug her. She slipped away, to the side. “Revert it.” She said.I blinked. “Pardon?”“Revert what you've done, Zeke. I don't appreciate it.”She was being unreasonable. Couldn't she see that she had a selfish inhumane man as a father? I knew she was softhearted, but she needed to be hard hearted at times.“I'm afraid I can't.” I said softly.“And why is that?” She retorted.“It's irreversible, Kitten. I can't do any

Unfortunately for them, I came prepared.“Put this on,” I handed an amulet to Mirah whose face was already turning red from the cold.“Bloody fuckers,” I heard Natasha say. She was standing close to Qyle who was observing the surroundings.“They've placed traps around.” He scoffed, and I took a closer look around.True enough, hidden at strategic places were vampires bane, sprinkled on the white ground. It wasn't noticeable, and blended well into the icy ground.“Fuckers,” I said. If they thought some bluish substance was going to stop us from achieving our goals, they probably had no idea how powerful I was.I'd never thought of standing up against the Circle. After the king, they were the most powerful in the kingdom. They maintained order, and ensured that their choice of king was the best.I'd been elated when I'd been chosen to join them. All al

    EPILOGUE Mirah“This is beautiful,” I breathed, letting go of Zeke's hand and standing on my feet.Candles were set up on the table, and the entire decor was so romantic. I turned back and kissed Zeke gently.“Thank you,” I muttered softly.He held onto my waist, and led me towards the table.“You deserve more, Kitten.” He said.“I never knew you had this romantic side to you,” I teased.“And like I said before, there are many sides to me that you don't know.” He chuckled. “But you will,” He quickly added, making the glower I was already putting on dissolve.“Better,” I laughed.After he poured us wine and I clinked my glass against his, I caught him staring intensely at me.“What? Do I have something on my face?” I asked, suddenly feeling shy.“Not at all. I just can't stop staring at you.” He said, lifting his glass towards his mouth.“I guess you're lucky then,” I winked.“Oh you have no idea, Kitten.” My skin scorched under his hot stare, and I pressed my le

    Chapter Seventy-Seven MirahI took a deep breath, as I took in the faces of everyone present round the large table, in Mt Glacier.We'd automatically transformed it into a meeting place where all kingdoms met for discussion.“It has surely been a tough, intense ride for the past few months. I'm glad everything is over,” I began, my voice ringing clearly around the room.“But since everything is over, I'd like to return the Source to the rightful owner.” I said, letting my gaze land on Xavier.A temporary silence reigned, before Xavier broke it.“The Source chose you for a reason, Mirabella. You're kind, compassionate, and selfless. You're everything a Controller should possess. And I'm sorry for all the time I'd pretended to harm you.” Xavier said, the words sounding odd, considering how icy he was.But I smiled all the same. “I understand. But I don't belong here. You guys know it too.” Natasha rose to her feet, rounded the table, and came over to hug me.“I’l

    Chapter Seventy-Six ZEKE/MIRAH MirahWe fought off members of the Circle with ease, as we advanced towards Mt Glacier.I dealt Master Damian a fierce punch, and sent him flying in the air.At the side, Zeke was fighting too. Gone was his indifferent demeanor, and its place was fierceness. A bloodthirsty look.“Watch out!” I turned and yelled.He moved from the position he'd been, and his grandfather's claws swiped at empty air.“Natchez, good to see you on the battlefield.” He scoffed, as their swords clanged.“It’s King Natchez to you.” His grandfather grunted, and dealt Zeke a blow on his jaw.I darted towards them, when a claw suddenly swiped in front of me. I staggered a few inches away, before gaining my footing.“I ceased to respect you the moment you chose to side with evil,” I heard Zeke sneer before piercing straight into his grandfather's chest a sword laced with vampires-bane.“Nice of you guys to join the party.” I heard Tyler sneer.

    Chapter Seventy-Five Mirah I spluttered, as I fell to the ground. Zeke ran over to my side, panic spreading over his face. “I’m fine,” I managed a smile, as he helped me up. “You’re not. What happened?” He asked, placing an arm around my neck, and leading me back towards the tower. The others tailed us. “I’m hungry,” I murmured. “We’ll get you something to eat. But what happened? Why do you have bruises on your arm?” He questioned, his voice dropping dangerously low. “Zeke, calm down,” I could see how angry he was, from his bulging veins. His anger seeped into our bond, making my heart burn. “I didn't want you to go.” He said gruffly. “But I'm back now, and safe too.” I countered, pulling away from him to walk on my own. The others were watching, so I managed a smile. “I’ll go get cleaned up,” I said, my voice barely a whisper as I tried to push past him. His hand gripped my arm. “Follow me.” He said, and pulled me away towards the tower. “You’re hurting

    Chapter Seventy-Four MirahI hid behind a tree as I watched the swirl of dark energy swoosh past. I'd been roaming through the streets of Weasels for the past one hour, while staying hidden of course. I'd already used a spell on my back, where Darcel had stabbed me.The Lumi had completely taken over Weasels and the dark energy that spread around,made my heart beat fast.I waited until it had gone far, before coming out of my hiding place.My destination was the castle, although I doubted if Tyler was there. According to Zeke, Tyler hated the royal castle.And I wondered why, considering the fact that he wanted power. I held on to the hilt of my dark sword as I advanced.After minutes of hiding and resurfacing, the castle came into sight. I climbed a tree, so I could catch a clear glimpse of the security around.Turns out the guards manning the gates were Vampires. And they looked…different.Possessed.I inhaled sharply, and then jumped down from the tree.“Hey, there

    Chapter Seventy-Three Mirah“Black spots, calloused hands, and bleeding nose,” I turned to Zeke who was standing close to me.“Why do I feel like each time we get close to winning, another problem arises taking us back to square one?” I sighed.“What’s the Book saying?” Kai asked, bringing in another sick person.“Da-ji has gone oddly silent, I can't even get a response out of it.” I said, massaging my temple.“Da-ji?” Zeke muttered.“Oh, that's the name of the Book. How about we get a message across to Queen Belinda? She may have a solution.” I asked, facing Natasha.“We can't risk it. Creating a portal is sure to attract the Lumi and Tyler. We agreed not to use magic within the fortress.” She replied, making creases appear on my forehead.Just great.A week ago, the Vampires within the fortress had begun developing a strange kind of illness, which made them fall unconscious. The numbers of affected people seemed to be increasing each day.And- which was the most f

Keep looking at me like that, and I can't guarantee if we'll get out of this lake early.” He said hoarsely, his gaze burning into my skin.I held his gaze challengingly. “You can't go for that long,” I scoffed and yelped almost immediately, as he spanked my ass.His hand palmed my mound, while making lazy circles that made me shudder.“It’s not my fault that the men you've been with before me were weak, Kitten.” He said, leading his hand to his now bulging erection.With one swift move, he turned me around so my ass hovered close to his cock. I inched closer, a jolt running through my body when I finally came in contact with his erection.“You’re so naughty, Kitten.” He murmured, spanking my ass yet again.“Would you like it

    Chapter Seventy-One Mirah“In, in! Fast!” I called out, waving towards the door that led into the fortress.Vampires, PantherBrids- who looked in fact nothing like their name, Shadowers, piled in. I was mesmerized by how fast Kai and the others were bringing them over through a portal which Natasha was maintaining. The Dark realm was well…quite a lot.And according to Zeke, they were just three kingdoms. There were six others.Four of which had joined Tyler's scheme, and two- Rogue-brids and See-brids who were hiding at Gavemorth.The fortress turned out to be a beautiful island large enough to contain the entire Dark realm, complete with amenities.It wasn't actually built. I just had to open a certain page of the Book, and utter some words already written. With pure intentions.I could see the look the Vampires threw at me, especially since Zeke wasn't present. The other kingdoms weren't a hassle since their leaders were present.Thinking of Zeke made the worry
