The moment they vanish, Carissa turned around and immediately found herself surrounded by the elders as well as the others with a chain in their hands.
Her heart thumped and try to move from where she was standing when she felt herself being pulled back by the chains that wrapped themselves around her body.
Carissa fall back onto the ground, unable to struggle out of the grip of the chain that was obviously embedded with magic.
"Bring her to the dungeon!" Empress Lamia ordered.
Carissa's eyes flashed with a dangerous aura when she saw Mateo who was looking at her from far away with a dazed look on his face.
She gave him one last glare before she was dragged forward by the stronger vampires into the dungeon where her master had been.
She was then chained with the same chain they were using on a steel bar above her head.
Along the way, she didn't even struggle nor did she take action against any of them. This should mak
Carissa heard a baby's cries and struggled to open her eyes. A blurry image of a teary Mateo with a baby in his arm came into her view before her vision went dark."Rissa!" Mateo try to shake awake but failed."Hold him." he passed the baby to Nicanor before lifting Carissa into his arms.They then strode out of the dungeon and towards his residence.Along the way, Mateo was engulfed with regret as well as anger. If only he resisted his parents as well as the elders' order, Carissa wouldn't have been in this state now.He was aware of their hatred and malice towards Carissa but thought that they wouldn't hurt her for his sake. How wrong he was!He was angry at himself for turning a blind eye on the mate he'd been waiting for for decades. He truly didn't deserve her!"Rissa, stay with me!"Mateo gritted his teeth and tighten his hold onto Carissa's body as he ran faster.The healers were summoned immediat
Mateo open his mouth but was interrupted by the baby’s cries once again. He look at the baby beside her and was about to take him into his arms when Carissa beat her to it.Immediately after, the baby ceased crying and let out a giggle as Carissa played with him.“He’s such a crybaby.” Mateo sighed helplessly.He didn’t recall himself crying like that in his childhood.Carissa forgot the tense atmosphere they were having and smiled tenderly towards the baby.Mateo was mesmerized by her beauty once again and his heart couldn’t help beating fast inside his heart as he stared at the woman before him.She gave birth to his child and had even stayed behind at the cost of her life just so she could help the witches escape.Mateo also realizes that she could actually escape without fail if she wanted to, but she stayed because he threatened her with the baby.Mateo
Meanwhile, back in Werewolves Palace.Leroy was training at the back of Percival’s residence when a guard came up to him.“Young Prince! Someone at the palace gate is looking for you.”Leroy walk up to him and took the towel from the servant who was waiting at the side. He wiped the sweat on his face and neck as he walked towards the palace gate with the guard.“Who was it?” he asked as he hang the towel around his neck.“From the information given, there were a group of strange people.”Leroy raised an eyebrow. Strange people? That’s a first.Who would be bold and daring enough to approach the Werewolves Palace?From afar, Leroy saw a group of people at the gate and suddenly a breathtaking smell wafted to his nose. His heartbeat suddenly sped up as his emotions began to stir.Theia Nikandros was busy complaining to his brother, Tychon Nikandros, about the
A month after.“You want to be my sister’s mate? You can dream!” Tychon crossed his arms as he look at Leroy in front of him.Leroy narrowed his eyes dangerously, “It’s been a month. Theia should live in my residence now since she’s my mate.”Tychon pursed his lips. He doesn’t approve of his sister’s relationship with this werewolf. He didn’t want his sister to get hurt like Leroy’s parents.Furthermore, this so calls cooperation with the werewolves, hunters, hybrids and witches might only be temporary and the chance for it to succeed is small.Since Carissa’s mate was a vampire, would she be able to kill him with her own hands? Could she really bear to kill her son’s father?Furthermore, if someone kills their mate, it would be detrimental to them as well. There was a rumour going around saying that a person who killed their mate will become a rogue.Could she
In a guest house somewhere in the Werewolf Palace. Theia was cooking in the kitchen with Vellamo when she heard someone greeting her brother and Leroy. Thinking of the man who had haunted her mind for a month, Theia’s heart couldn’t help but thump with a fast rhythm. It wasn’t long before Leroy make his way from the living room to the kitchen. Leaning on the kitchen door, his tall and sturdy body almost blocked the whole door. “Mom, what are you cooking? It smells nice.” Leroy spoke to his mother but his whole attention was on the lady beside her mother. Vellamo laughed, “Could you say something else than that? You’ve been coming here every day and saying the same thing over and over again.” Theia had her back on him so he couldn’t see her reaction. However, even with her back on him, Theia could feel him burning his gaze on her back. This realization made her a bit flustered and she accidentally cut her index finger with the knife in her hand. “Hiss!” she sucked in a breath from
Moving back to Mateo’s residence.“Your Majesty, the Queen has fainted in the living room!” a maid ran towards Mateo’s study and immediately opened her mouth to speak after she got permission to enter.“What?” Mateo was startled and quickly stood up before running out of his study, “How is she now? Call the healers, quick!”The maid who followed him from behind replied, “Your Majesty, I have already told the guard at the door to call the healers.”Mateo’s face changed when he saw another maid was wiping blood on the floor near the couch Carissa was lying on.Seeing Mateo’s face that had turned dark, the maid behind him quickly stepped forward, “Your Majesty, the Queen vomited blood before she fainted.”Mateo’s dark face didn’t change when he heard the maid’s explanation. He turned his attention
Three days later.“Carissa Vasileiou! Come out! You are under arrest for murdering our peoples!”“Ghost leader!”“Come out and receive your punishment!”“Come out, you coward!”“Murderer!”“Assassins!”“Evils!”“Kill her!”“Someone should have executed her from the start!”“Avenge our people!”“Come out if you dare, you pathetic hunter!”“There’s no need to fear her, peoples! We caught her parents and executed them! The same fate will befall this bastard!”Second floors of Mateo’s palace.Crack!Carissa ground her teeth and clenched her fists, trying her best not to go out and slaughtered the vampires outside M
As soon as Carissa step outside the door, her ears caught the ringing of a metal chain coming towards her from all direction. In the face of thousand vampires who was ready to shred her into pieces, Carissa stood calmly as she waited for the chains to reach her. Then, she caught the end of the chain with a single move. The vampires that was holding onto the chain trembles from head to toe when they saw this. They were pulled towards her before they could shake the chain off their hands. Carissa activated her Blue Flame Skill and the rest of the vampires watch their comrades turn to ashes in a blink of an eye. Four small glaring white orb floated in front of Carissa and made their way towards her forehead before it disappeared. When everyone saw this, they felt a cold chill running down their spines and couldn't help taking a few step back from her. "If you
