“Irene,” Aliyah called softly when she saw the woman standing in front of the door. Her eyes were ashen black and her lips were pale. Her skin was pale as well and black lines stretched out on her body like black veins. Her hands were bony and her nails were black and pointed. Aliyah could feel the fear rising in her chest as she remembered that that was exactly how she looked when she attacked her that other day. She glanced around, neither Sean nor Rasmus nor even Steven would come for her rescue today and they also won’t hear her scream from the unrest of the pack. She knew that escaping Irene now is all up to her and she just hopes the woman would wake up before she does any real harm to her or she to her.“Irene, this isn’t you, wake up, please,” she pleaded but the woman just kept staring at her. She let her gaze roam around, searching for a weapon to use or anything that would aid her in fighting. However, instead of seeing something to use, she was rather hit by her first cont
Steven felt fear rise up to his throat and he intend to run to the woman but then a rogue landed in front of him and snarled. He tried his best to take it out as fast as he could but when he finally did, both Elder John and the witch was gone. He scanned around, his heart thumping loud in his chest as he started running around, searching for them. He must know what have happened and where exactly Aliyah was because his gut is telling him that she is no longer in the cottage and he must know where she is.‘Steven, what are you doing running around like a lost puppy, get back in fight,’ Ethan’s voice rolled in his mind and he sounded wounded. He turned to find his father but he couldn’t but he saw his brother being attacked by two rogues and three nightwalkers. ‘Gerald,’ he screamed in his mind and sprinted to him, jumping and landing on a nightwalker, biting down on his throat. He released his alpha powers and the force threw away the rogues while he landed on another nightwalker, firs
Not only Damien but everyone who happened to see that face being reflected by the moonlight thought the night was playing a joke on them but they watch the man fly in that unbelievable speed and land another blow on that beast.“Sean, I am not going crazy right?” Rasmus asked as he watched the man fighting with the Nebuzar but Sean was also questioning his own sanity to answer him. It was like time came to a stop with only the Dark Prince and the Nebuzars moving. Those who saw him die couldn’t believe their eyes and it was hard especially on Rasmus for he had buried the man himself. And if he did that, then how can he be there? Fighting that monster and landing blows that neither the High Howlers or High chiefs could.The Nebuzar growled and attacked Edward, slamming the man against the very watchtower it had thrown Damien and the man broke off the tower but right before it could crush any innocent wolf, he grabbed it and threw it at the Nebuzar. The wall broke in pieces on hitting th
“Hello princess,” A woman chuckled as Aliyah suddenly appeared in front of her. “I have been looking forward to seeing you again.”Aliyah glanced around, she was in a dim-lit massive room with long drapes covering the windows. About eight to ten chandeliers hung on the ceiling and following it, she saw a big red throne sitting at the edge of the room and a man was sitting on it. His golden hair fell in locks down his shoulders and his dark brown eyes were on her, a small smile playing on his lips. The walls of the room looked gloomy and cold. Aliyah didn’t need to be told that she was in a throne room, an old throne room.She quickly got up from the floor, momentarily forgetting about the pain she was in as she finally realized where she was. She remembered the witch that had kidnapped her back then standing beside the man she now knows was the demon king. It was the first time she was seeing his face and for some reason, he reminded her of someone. If she didn’t know better, she woul
Everyone frowned when they heard Irene’s words, what does she mean by it was not really him? He is standing right in front of them isn’t he? However, Edward didn’t care about what she said and just asked, “how could you let yourself be a pawn?”Irene closed her eyes, even she had been blaming herself. “It was a moment of weakness; she was too strong and her spell took…”“I don’t care about that,” Edward interrupted, shocking Rasmus and Sean. He always cared about what happened to Irene, so why was he acting indifferent now? “Where is my mate?” he asked.Irene couldn’t bring herself to speak, she could already sense that the man cared not about her anymore, how could she tell him that they took Aliyah just as she was going into labor? Tears pooled in her eyes as she stared at him but didn’t say anything.“WHERE IS SHE?” Edward asked word for word that his voice sent shivers down everybody spines.“She…she was taken,” Irene whispered but she suddenly felt the man’s fingers tightening on
Kaiden’s eyes widened when he heard that and turning around, the ceiling of the room suddenly crumbled making them move out of the way of the falling debris. Looking up, they saw the man hanging midair and the moon’s light illuminated his face and gave off his dark knight’s vibe. “Impossible,” Kaiden whispered, not believing his eyes.The woman was also shocked but her shock didn’t last for long as she chuckled. “My, my, my, dark prince, what a way to shock us.”Edward ignored them and his eyes went to the girl tied on the plank and being hanged midair by chains. His heart went out to her as he felt her in every single part of his body, his stomach and his cheeks had the most pain and he knew instantly that she had been slapped and kicked or hit in the stomach. The anger bobbled inside his arm and bloodshot eyes went to the man standing closest to her and only for him to receive the shock of his life. “Kaiden?” he called.“Hello little brother,” Kaiden hissed.“Hold up,” the woman sai
Sean and Steven fell on the ground as soon as the smoke released them and Malachi and Damien picked themselves up. Damien shook himself, freeing his furs of death and Irene finally put down her shield.Edward’s eyes stopped burning and returned to their natural midnight blue as he rushed Rasmus who was holding an unconscious Aliyah. He took her from Rasmus and cradled her face and for the first time since that night, his face revealed warmth as he leaned over and kissed her forehead. However, he sensed something ruining his sweet reunion with her, a flicker of light on his mating mark which was always a sign that a mate is dying. His eyes turned urgent immediately as he glanced at the sleeping girl and started shaking her to wake her up.“Oh no,” Irene screamed and rushed to them, “what have they done?” she picked Aliyah’s hand as she knelt beside her. “They have numbed him,” she said and turned to Edward, “they have numbed his powers. His heartbeat is slowing and if he dies, Aliyah w
A woman with a long platinum blonde sleek ponytail landed in front of an ancient mansion. She was dressed in a black leather trousers and black leather jacket. The big black doors opened upon her arrival and the guards bowed to her as she walked past. Her knee-level black heeled boots clanked on the marble floors as she walked, her ponytail bouncing to and fro with each step.She came upon a council room with a big black throne and a woman was sitting on it, dressed in black robes and her long black hair cascaded down her shoulders. The woman’s cat like eyes shone upon seeing the new arrival and she licked her lips in anticipation to the juicy news she brought to her. “My Queen,” the platinum blonde haired woman bowed and when she looked up, her eyes flashed green with diluted pupils and the woman on the throne sat up.“I know that gaze, tell me, what is going on in the palace?” she asked.“The day we have been waiting for has finally arrived, My queen. There was a fight in the demon
