A few hours after that, Leroy accompanied Carissa to the borders where the caught werewolves soldiers were waiting for them.
Behind them was a few vampire soldiers who were looking at them with malice. Looking at the caught werewolves made Carissa shuddered.
Some of them had lost parts of their bodies and from the looks of it, they did not get any treatment at all. A slight movement was like a pain that was ten times higher.
Furthermore, they had lost a lot of blood and it was impossible to heal overnight. Their life was on the edge of a cliff.
It was a miracle that they were still breathing up until now. They have been tortured for hours inside the dungeon for they won't tell the vampires a thing about the werewolves war camp and their plans.
'What a loyal dog', Carissa thought.
"I'm here. You can let them go now." Carissa walk straight to them and waved her hand carelessly.
"Carissa-!" Leroy wanted to stop her but stopped whe
Leroy who saw this scene was stunned. He felt that something was about to invade his mind. But, when it came close to his brain, a strong force from his mind blocked it and attacked Carissa.His doubt about Carissa risen again. This woman, what did she want to do? Did she want to manipulate him?He was still in a daze when he heard her voice.“Leroy...” she holds out her hand as she looked at him with a painful expression.Leroy hesitated for a moment but when he recalls how the strong force protected him just now, he stretched his hand and hold hers.Immediately after, a woman’s back image appeared in front of him and a sense of familiarity swept over him.His heart was pounding against his chest. The moment she turns her head to look at him, Leroy his tears run across his cheek.The purple-eyed woman looked at him and smiled when he cried out, “Mom!”But, all of a sudden, the warm scene en
Carissa’s pupils shrunk deeply when she heard this familiar voice. She raised her head and look in the direction of the voice. Sure enough, it was him!“Heidrich Samson!” she gritted her teeth in anger.She recalls how he trapped her with the magic net before and recall how helpless she was at that moment.The people inside the Palace Hall instantly quiet down when they heard her calling the fourth Royal King’s name so blatantly.Heidrich saw the hatred in her eyes and smirked in contempt, “Ghost leader, we meet again.”Wenceslaus Kalev and Blaise exchanged a look of surprise. The ghost leader looked very young. There was no fear in her eyes when she looked at them.Carissa’s face was tense for a moment before a mischievous smirk appeared on her lips, “Flower Boy, how’s your commander? I quite miss him.”When Blaise and Wenceslaus heard this, they stifled a laugh. This
Carissa’s body flew away like a kite with a cut off string.Bam!Carissa felt that she had landed on a pillar and the pain on her body cannot be said anymore.Her body slid down and landed with a thump on the ground. All of a sudden, her nostril caught a sweet smell.The smell made her forget the pain on her body and she was dazed. She lifted her body from the ground and suddenly saw a pair of black boots in front of her.Her eyes trail along with the fit trousers and the black shirt that was hugging his muscle as well as the sculpted jaws and his...his green...green eyes?Carissa gasped for breath at this moment. She could hear her heart pounding away in excitement as sparks light up when she met his eyes.Mateo Katsaros was startled when he first noticed her. He also noticed that she carried a special scent with her.He observed her like she was studying him. Even when she was all bloody, he could still see her g
Outside Mateo’s room, the place was in an uproar when they heard that the Ghost Leader was their current Royal King’s mate.This hot news reached the ears of the previous kings and queens who were resting in their manor.“What did you say? Mateo’s mate is the person who eliminated four of our clans?!”Mateo’s mother, Empress Lamia Heidi, sprang from her seat and knocked off the tea set beside her to the floor.Clang!The maid and servant around her stepped back in fear of getting the brunt of her anger.The butler beside her wiped the cold sweat on his head before confirming his words, “That...that is what our people are saying, My Empress.”Lamia’s face frowned even more, “Presumptuous! How could the daughter of our enemy become his mate?”At the side, Mateo’s father, Emperor Niphone Katsaros, frowned when he heard this news.He kno
Mateo and Carissa came down to the dining room for dinner. Leroy and Nicanor were already seated at the table waiting for them to arrive.A few servants and maids stand behind the table, waiting to serve their lord. Servants were waiting at the back with the trolley of food.Mateo’s butler, Neil Ogem, who was in his middle age, was waiting beside the head table.Although Nicanor was his general, Mateo and him were very close. They grow up together since birth and Nicanor had served by his side since childhood.Looking at Leroy who had changed into clean clothes, Mateo narrowed his eyes. He had never been fond of the werewolves since they were always at war.Leroy looked back at him with the same hatred in his eyes, even more, when he recalled the vision he saw of his mother.It was hard struggling to control his anger from bursting out. If he could, he would have stormed off from here and started turning the vampire’s king
After dinner, they went back to their respective room.Carissa waited until Mateo was fully asleep before she grabbed the pillow behind her head and placed it slowly in Mateo's arms. After that, she tiptoed out of the room before closing the room behind her.She activated her sense of smell before walking towards the familiar smell while avoiding the guards with her quick steps.Not long after that, she arrived at a dark spot behind a building and saw a figure standing there."It seems we understood each other well." Carissa spoke to him in a low voice.Leroy grunted, "Do you have any plans?"Before they went to their separate ways after the end of their dinner, Carissa mind-linked him to escape the palace."No." Carissa looked at the forest behind the palace, "But, we can try to cross this forest first."Leroy pursed his lips, even though he was reluctant to leav
Carissa watched with anxiousness as Mateo began undressing in front of her."What do you want to do?" she asked with a slight panic in her voice.Mateo glanced at her and sneer, "What do you think?"Carissa tried to move away from him with a futile attempt since she was cuffed to the headboard.She struggled with all her might to remove her hand from the cuff but failed. Her fair skin had turned red from the force she put on her struggle.She tried to activate her power to melt the iron steel many times but it was as if she had returned to an ordinary human who doesn't have any power at all.Fear spread through her body like wildfire and swallowing her whole. Her body trembles and her eyes had turn misty from holding her tears back."No! No! No! Let me go! Let me go!" she cried hysterically when the half-naked Mateo approached her.Mateo didn't seem to hear her at all. All he could think about was how she dared
"Your fangs. How did you get it?" Mateo inquired after not being able to hide his curiosity anymore.Carissa's fingers halted as she froze. Yesterday, she recalled that she had sunk her canines onto Mateo's flesh.The fact that she has red eyes and fangs like a vampire had been hidden by her father and mother deeply in fear that she would be rejected by other hunters.What's more, she was a Soul Huntress! How could she have red eyes and fangs like a vampire?Her father and mother love each other very much. How could it be possible that one of them had cheated with a vampire?Both of them hated vampires to the bones ever since they were created!She looks up and gazed deeply at Mateo's green eyes and asked, "Why are your eyes green?"Only hunters would have green eyes!Mateo stiffened up when he heard her question. He had found it quite odd too. Every vampire was born with red eyes and he was born with gre
