The man looked back at her, his face still so dark. "Get up young lady," he said. "Save our time..."Sunna shook her head. She was so scared of them now. But more, she hated them to the bone.How the hell could he also her? She was feeling like her world was revolving, just from that hot slap.The man took a step towards her when she shook her head. And she knew that whatever awaited her was going to be worst.She stood up, her body shaking. "I will open it..." She said. There were lines of tears on her face.And she looked so delicate, so pitiful. This irritated the man again. "This is not the time to cry!" He said. "You better put your life in consideration while dealing with us..."She wiped away her tears, even though her shoulders were still shaking. Yes, he was right. It was time she put her life into consideration.She looked at the door in front of her and took in a deep breath.'I am sorry dad,' she said in her head. ' I am doing this to save my life. I want to be here with y
The man stopped and turned to look at her. "Anything?" He asked ridiculously. "I only want the book... Hand it over and I will not bother looking at you..."Sunna trembled. "But... I really know nothing about it..." She said. How the hell was she supposed to speak do that he would know that she did not have it?The man's lips slightly raised when she said that. "I know," he replied. "And that is the exact reason why I am taking you with me..."Then slowly, he turned, ready to keep walking.Sunna's heart beat so fast. Did they want to keep her hostage so they they could get the book? She immediately pulled her hands from his and knelt to the ground. "Boss... Please... I beg you.... Do not take me with you. I have cooperated as much as I could,right?"Tears were already falling from her eyes again. But she knew very well when to beg and when not to. This was her life! She was not afraid of doing anything in her power to save it.The man halted in his steps again, but he did not turn
The man was irritated by her cries. He turned towards her and pointed the gun at her. "Any more sound and you are gone too! I am not scared of killing two useless women..."Sunna covered her mouth with her hand, her whole body shaking. And she looked at Auntie Sam who was already kneeling on the ground, maybe because of the fear of seeing the gun pointed at them."Auntie..." She said almost in a whisper. She was the one who could help now.The helicopter landed some distance from them. And the leader pushed Sunna towards the other men. "Get her in... Hurry up!" He said while looking at his watch."Nooo!" Sunna struggled again. But the men held her and pulled her towards the helicopter. "Auntie...call for help!"Auntie Sam trembled more. Sunna was really being taken away. "Nooo! Sunna!" She cried. "Help... Heeelp!" She wanted to find someone to help them.She was not going to allow anything to happen to Sunna! She knew that there were always so many men guarding the house secretly. Wh
"Boss?" One of the men who was helping him plan something called when he realized that he was out of place.And he sighed. No! He was not fine! Or rather, something was not fine."Excuse me for a second," he said and stood up. His assistant followed closely behind him."Boss," he called. "Are you suspecting that something is not right?" He asked. He could tell by the way the man looked.Deagan took out his phone and leaned against the wall in the corridors. "Not really," he said. "I just have a funny feeling."He looked at his phone for some seconds, contemplating whether to call her or not.Maybe he was just overthinking, right? Or maybe, he had just missed her.Yes, that could be the case. He must have missed her."Boss?" The assistant asked. He creased his brows. He had never seen his boss look like that before."Oh!" Deagan said. "Let me make this call," he said and finally tapped on her number.It was not a mistake to miss her. He could listen to her voice, just to make sure that
...Five hours had passed since Sunna was kidnapped. And everyone was on panic.Deagan and Malden had reached home, and they were trying to look for her every where.Even the underground forces had been dispatched, almost everywhere, looking for her.Deagan was the most tensed up one. He kept looking at his watch, wondering where she could be.They knew that whoever had kidnapped her might have wanted something. And they were waiting to see what it could be.But until now, they did not get any calls. It felt like they were waiting for nothing.And he made calls here and there. But the response was the same all the time. They had not gotten any information about her.Malden was the most stressed. He walked towards Auntie Sam, who had been crying all the time."It is okay Samantha," he said. "We are going to find her..."But the woman shook her head as she cried more. "I am sorry, boss..." She said. "It was all my fault! I should have remained home with her..."She was regretting ever l
...In a certain large house, but in a hidden place, there were guards everywhere.And all through, they seemed so armed, as though they were ready for something.A man was seen walking into the underground buildings. And he went to a certain door. His hands were in his pockets, as he walked proudly.The guards at the door immediately opened it with a bow. "Boss," they said.The man nodded and walked in. And he stopped for a second when he saw the girl lying on the floor, still unconscious.He seemed to be thinking of something. Then he bent and touched the floor, as if feeling something.But after a few seconds, he he shook his head and stood up. He was feeling a bit stupid.He walked closer to the girl and bent beside her, observing her carefully. No one could tell what that he was looking for.He pursed his lips again, before taking out his phone and making a call.And the call was picked up immediately. He could not help but chuckle a little."Malden Delmar..." He called lazily. T
Malden's heart turned cold immediately. How did the man expect him to be cool when it was his daughter that they were talking about? But he still tried to remain calm. "Nothing... Nothing has happened to her right?" He asked. He was worried!And he swore never to spare them if they had done anything to his daughter. No! He was not going to forgive himself either!Sunna was used to soft life. Her looking like that now made him feel like he could kill someone."Do not worry," the man replied. "Nothing has happened to her yet... But from now, it depends with your response and your willingness to cooperate..."Malden swallowed hard. "I am bringing the book," he said. "I hope that is all that you want. Do not do anything to her... Where should I find you?"And even Deagan was shocked. That book meant so much to this man! Was he going to give it up like that?But again, he did not speak. This was Sunna they were talking about. He was sure that nothing could ever be compared to her. The m
...Ken sat in his study, doing nothing in particular. There was so much going on in his head. From time to time, he would look at his watch, then back to hid phone.But still, his mind would go back to the girl in his house. And every time this happened, he would shake his head in irritation.To hell with him! What was happening? Why did her image keep appearing in his head?Who was she? A witch? He did not see anything special in fear! All he wanted was that book!A few minutes later, there was a knock on his door. And one of his men rushed in while shivering."What is it?" Ken raised his head and asked in confusion. He had never seen this man look like that."Um... Boss..." Tom, one of his right hand men called. "Something happened..."While a bit confused, Ken stood up from his seat. "What is it? What happened?""Uh... It is the girl... She is missing. We do not even know how this happened!"Ken pursed his lips. " What do you mean by she is missing?" He asked."The room.... She is
After the grand wedding ceremony, Deagan and Sunna returned to the palace as husband and wife. Sunna's pregnancy was now more visible, but she was glowing with happiness. Deagan had been sworn in as the new king, following the customs of the kingdom. However, it was not an ordinary transition of power. Prior to the wedding, Deagan and his father, King Alfrond, had signed an agreement that would bring significant changes to the kingdom.As per the agreement, Deagan was now the rightful king of the kingdom, but he had to make some important amendments to the existing laws. The most important amendment that he made was to banish all forms of discrimination between werewolves, vampires, demigods, and humans. This was a bold move, as discrimination had been part of the kingdom's culture for centuries. But Deagan was determined to bring positive change to the kingdom, and he knew that this was the right thing to do.On the day of his coronation, Deagan made a speech that change the cour
After their visit to the palace, Deagan and Sunna had to face the pressure from both the palace and home to announce their upcoming wedding date. King Alfrond had made it clear that he wanted a grand wedding befitting a prince, while Sunna's parents were eager to see their daughter wedded to her prince charming.Deagan had been taking his time because he wanted to hold the grandest wedding for Sunna. He wanted every detail to be perfect, from the venue to the flowers, to the food and drinks. He had been secretly planning the wedding with the help of the palace staff, but he had not yet set a date.But with the pressure from both the palace and home, Deagan knew he couldn't wait any longer. He had to announce the wedding date and start the preparations.He too wanted to marry her in the right way now. Of course, they had the certificates, but he wanted to legalize it. He did not want then to be married only in papers.He gathered his family and Sunna's family in the grand hall of the
...Deagan woke up early to make sure everything was ready. He packed Sunna's bags and left a note on her pillow, telling her to be ready to leave in an hour.When Sunna woke up and read the note, she was confused. She had no idea where they were going or what they were doing. She was sure that Deagan had not told her anything about travelling.Still, she quickly got dressed and packed took her bags, wondering what surprise Deagan had in store for her.Deagan picked Sunna up in his black limousine and took her to the airport. Sunna was still in the dark about where they were going, but she was excited to find out.When they arrived at the airport, Deagan surprised Sunna with first-class tickets to Country P. She couldn't believe it. She had always wanted to visit Country P, and now she was finally going."Why didn't you tell me earlier?" She asked, trying to force a pout, but the joy on her face betrayed her.Deagan chuckled and pinched her nose. "It would not be a surprise if I told
...During dinner, the family was seated around the table enjoying their meal. Sunna, who had been unusually quiet during dinner, waited until everyone was done eating before looking at Deagan and smiling.She announced that she had something to say, which made her dad, mom, and Deagan look at her anxiously. Sunna slowly took out a piece of paper from her pocket and handed it to Deagan. Deagan creased his brows, wondering what she was up to. "What is this?" He asked.But the girl just smiled. "You can read, right?" She asked.Deagan sighed and ran his eyes over the words on the paper. And was surprised to see that it was a pregnancy test result."You are pregnant?" Deagan asked in shock. His face was dark that she could not read his emotions.Sunna nodded in fear, scared that Deagan would not be happy about the news. "How old abd when did you find it out?" He asked, looking straight at her.Sunna clenched her fists, her other hand holding onto her belly. It was funny though that she
Deagan held her tightly with a smile and looked around the room. "Where is dad?" He asked.And it was only then that Sunna remembered that there were other people she was supposed to inform that Deagan was awake."Dad! Mom! Everyone! Deagan is awake!" Sunna shouted with excitement, unable to contain her joy. It was a moment she had been waiting for days, and it had finally come.Sunna could not believe it. Deagan was finally awake, and the joy and relief were palpable in the room. She watched as her dad, mom, and everyone else rushed into the room to see for themselves.As everyone gathered around the bed, they could not help but smile and celebrate. Deagan's dad, Alfrond, and his mom, Della, arrived shortly after they received the news, and they too were overjoyed.Sunna felt grateful that she had her family around to share the moment with her. It had been a difficult time, and now, things had gotten well.People from the palace, led by Alfrond and Della arrived shortly after they we
A few more days went by, and Sunna never got tired of taking care of Deagan. She would sit beside him and talk to him at times crying. It felt so bad that he was unconscious and not talking back. But she hoped that one day, he would. Today was no different. She sat beside him and held his hand, reminding him of the things that they had done together. She talked about herself, about her stay abroad and all the new things she had learnt. She never got tired of saying all these to him."You said you were strong! Why are you even sleeping here? You are a coward Deagan!" She said. She was trying everything to wake him up. She thought that maybe, by trying to say all those things, he would wake up."I have something good to tell you, do you not want to wake up?" She asked again, but still there was no response. It was frustrating, but she knew that there was nothing she could do about it."Since you cannot wake up, I am going to find myself another man to marry," Sunna said at last in an
"Honey... Deagan," Malden spoke, but he kept throwing glances at Talia, not sure how he was supposed to say that."Dad? Did something happen?" Sunna was getting impatient. She hoped that it was just some kind of trick they were playing on her.Malden sighed and took a step towards her. "I am not sure how to tell you this dear..." He began speaking.However, Sunna assumed him and looked at the room upstairs. Immediately, she ran up the stairs. She was going to check up for him everywhere!However, just as she pushed open the door to his room, she froze in place. Sunna could not believe what she was seeing. Her Deagan, the man she loved more than anything in the world, lay unconscious before her. Tubes and wires were attached to his body, and machines beeped ominously in the background. She felt like her world was crashing down around her.She ran towards him, her heart beating so fast. She even prayed that it was just somebody else lying there, and not him.But all she could see was h
Sunna's heart was racing as she read the message from her dad. Finally, after months of being away from home, she was going to be reunited with her family. Being away from home for four months was too much, and though she had enjoyed her time away, she was now more than ready to return home. She immediately passed the message to Gerry, who was still around to keep her company even though they had finished studying a month ago."Finally!" Gerry said happily. "I know you cannot wait to see him!" Deagan had asked her to keep Sunna company until the day that they had to go back home. And being her friend, she had been more that willing to do that.She had enjoyed her stay abroad, and now, she too was ready to go back home.As they packed their bags, Sunna could not help but wonder what it would be like to be back in her childhood home. Would everything be the same? Or would everything be different? She was filled with joy at the thought of finding out.As she packed, Sunna thought abou
After everyone had left, Deagan proceeded to take a seat as he wiped sweat off his head.Malden looked at him and creased his brows. Of course, he had been observing him from the time he got off the bed."Are you okay?" He asked and walked towards him. And Deagan nodded his head continuously. "Yes, I am okay," he said, trying to put on a smile. "You keep mom company..."He could not just tell them that his body was not okay. The truth was that he was trying to act well from the very beginning. He had already felt the change in his body.But Talia shook her head. "You are not fine," she said. "The blood you gave us was way too much.""I am fine," Deagan said and stood up. He wanted to go to his room and take a rest. He was telling himself that he would feel better once he woke up.However, the next moment, he fell to the ground. Talia rushed to take a look at him. "Deagan?" She called with fear.Malden's heart was heavy with worry as he watched Deagan fall to the ground, losing consci
