Louisa's POV
"Are you going to touch my brother?" The tuna head winked his giant eyes and stared at me. "Are you sure? He's pretty slimy. Your hands and dress will be dirty," he added. OK. So he's the one who's having priority issues. I thought to myself. "Your brother's life is on a thread. You don't have to worry about my dress and hands getting dirty. Come on, he's too big. I can't move him by myself. I need your help," I said and pulled his brother's arm. The tuna head looked at me as if he was about to cry. Then, he moved right in front of me and gave his brother a push. The tuna head's brother rolled over and started to cough violently. I patted his slimy scaled back, trying to help him to cough it out. After another episode of coughing, he finally spat out some pus-like sticky fluid on the ground. Something was shining in the fluid. I picked it up and saw it was a diamond ring, which I saw Akela wearing earlier tLouisa's POV "What did you just say?!" I was shocked. "On our way to this place, we heard some traveling druids talking about their plans to kidnap a man called Alpha Lucas from the White Walkers." "They broke a street lamp and tied up some rope on a road. Then, they were hiding in the dark and waiting for his arrival." "But halfway into the operation, they suddenly called it off." "We didn't know why, but we heard that they wanted to kidnap Beta Lucian's wife and brother." "Are you sure about what you've heard?!" I asked. "People can't hear us, but we've got good ears." Both of them shrugged and said. Lucian seemed to notice something wrong must have happened according to my facial expressions. He asked, "Miss Louisa, what did they say?" "Lucian, where is Gianna right now?" I asked. "She's on the way to our camp with Leo," he said. "You need to call Gianna right now. They said that those traveling
Louisa's POV "Don't say that to yourself. You aren't stupid. The real stupid people are those who try to bully others for a living," I said. Mana looked at me with sadness and said, "I don't think they're stupid. They're living a very good life. They've got everything. Those traveling druids live like Kings on islands in Agier Sea." "Nobody will live a good life by making others' lives miserable. In their consciousness, they know they aren't doing the right thing and they will be punished for what they've done to others," I said. "Well, Miss. I agree with you," Mana swallowed his saliva and said. "But the thing is, not everyone has consciousness as you do. Those traveling druids are mad right now. They have been mad ever since we were driven away from the mainland." Mata heard our conversation and said, "Thousands of years have passed. Some of us have already started to evolve, to move on with our lives. But some of them just refuse to let it go.
Louisa's POV "Yeah. You didn't know about it?" Mana asked. He looked very confused. "No! I know nothing about it!" I said emotionally. "Well... You've lost me..." Mata asked. He looked twice as confused as his brother. "Do you know that you can talk to animals?" "Yes! I've already known that," I replied. "Do you know that werewolves can't communicate with animals?" Mana asked. "Yes, of course, I know that!" I said. "And you don't feel anything suspicious about being able to talk to animals?" Mata asked. "No! I mean... Yes! But..." I couldn't even articulate my thoughts properly. "Well, You've lost me as well..." Mana declared. "But I'm a werewolf!" My eyes were wide open. "I don't have magic power!" Both Mana and Mata covered their heads and said, "OK, OK! Maybe we're wrong. Please don't be angry at us! We're just two stupid tuna heads..." Who am I? I thought to myself. In despair, I looked a
Louisa's POV "Where's their camp?" Lucian frowned. "Take us to their camp." The rogues looked reluctant. "Sir... Are you sure you want to go there? It's very bad luck to see dead druids..." "Take us to the camp, or I'll rip off your arms and feed them to my friends here," Lucian said and pointed at Mata. Mata looked very confused and looked at me for help. "We're vegetarians, for your information. We get lactose intolerant when we eat meat products..." he said. "Show them your badass look now, Dickhead!" Mana shouted at him. "Do I really have to...?" "Do it now! Dickhead!" Mata sighed. Then, he opened his giant mouth and snarled. He had got a tentacle-like tongue and the inside of his mouth was covered by hundreds of spike-like teeth. "Ahhhhh!" Some of the rogues passed out whereas others literally pissed themselves. Mata closed his mouth and looked up at Lucian, who frowned at him. He covere
Louisa's POV The melancholy and tenderness in his eyes made him irresistible. No woman on earth could stay angry at a man for long with that kind of look in his eyes. "You want to toast me in a moat?" Lucian drew himself closer to her and asked. "Well, if you don't come closer, you won't get burnt," Gianna whispered while entangling her fingers in Lucian's hair. "That's not possible," he whispered. Then, he pressed his lips against Gianna's mouth. Gianna moaned quietly and knocked her hands softly on Lucian's back. Then, she ran her hand gently into his hair and held his head. The way they held each other was like a missing piece of a puzzle was finally placed back into its position. Every curve of their faces and bodies was glued seamlessly together. They became one. Nothing seemed to be able to penetrate between them. Then, Lucian looked down at Gianna's stomach. "He kicked me," Lucian said with s
Louisa's POV I had never cried out so hard in my life. I was lying in Gianna's arms and cried my heart out. I knew it was very inappropriate to cry like that in front of someone that you had just met, but I felt that she had known me for a really long time. Maybe it was because she was pregnant and the hormone she gave off made me feel that I was crying in my mother's arms. Maybe it was because I felt very guilty because I had had some very impure thoughts towards Lucian. Maybe it was because she had never tried to stop me from crying. Maybe... Maybe it was because I realized that I could never have a man loving me in the same way Lucian loved Gianna. Love was the only thing I wanted in my life, but love wasn't something that I believed in. I guessed before I met Gianna, I thought maybe love was just something people made up in fairy tales. But when I saw Lucian holding and kissing her, when I saw the devo
Louisa's POV By the time we arrived at the Fire and Wind Camp, all the lights in the camp were on. When the soldiers wanted to take the traveling druid into my tent, I saw Darren sleeping on the camp bed on the side of the tent and Will sleeping on my bed. "Let's move him to Doctor Jafar's tent," I said. "Are you sure, Miss? It's pretty late and the good doctor will have already fallen asleep," the soldiers asked. "Look," I lowered my voice and frowned, "he's badly injured and I can't save him. And he's the only surviving clue to figure out who's behind the ambush of Alpha and the kidnapping of Beta's wife and brother. Doctor Jafar is the only one in this camp that can save this person's life. Even if he's dead, we have to dig him out of the grave and find a way to bring him back to life. Do you understand what I mean?" "Yes, Miss. Right away, Miss." They straightened their backs and said. When they took the stretcher away to Jafar'
Louisa's POV "Leo, Doctor Jafar needs to concentrate on doing the operation." I frowned and said, "Could you go sit next to the entrance of the tent and be vigilant? We don't want any bad people to come into the tent." "OK!" Leo skipped and hopped all the way towards the entrance of the tent. Then, he bumped into a man. "Lucas!" Leo jumped up and exclaimed. I saw Lucas picking Leo up like a little cub and holding him up in the air. "Man, what did they feed you in Festung Camp? You've grown up like a little calf!" Lucas said. Leo giggled and waved his arms. Lucas put him back on the floor and asked, "What are you doing here, little man?" Leo said, "Louisa asked me to stay here and stop bad people from getting into the tent." Lucas asked, "Do I look like a bad person to you?" Leo thought for a brief moment and said, "If you want to hurt Louisa, I can't let you go inside." Lucas laughed and stroked his hair,
