36. Made of glass

To them, Aakifahlynn knew it would be good riddance if she turned up missing. But for her, it would be freedom. She was not worried about this Ayacque because she had a plan.

But Aakifahlynn truly felt like she was not welcome here. This was not her Kingdom. It was not the home and safe haven she'd thought it once was.

These were not her people. They were ALL scheming against her.

But why? Her own kind, nonetheless.

Aakifahlynn was never meant to be there amongst those snakes. She classed them like she did her Ayacquean enemy, serpents. They deserve to pay. ALL OF THEM!

Soon, Emperor Demarion Dracul gently placed her in the vehicle's front passenger seat as if she was made out of glass, went to the driver's side, got in, and took off.

The Emperor hated that he could never use his abilities here. There was some sort of resistance. He surmised it must be a spell because this would undoubtedly have made things easier for him...Every time.

So here he was without his strengths and powerfu

    Aakifahlynn went through the motions for a good fifteen minutes, and once it was all said and done, her mind, heart, body, and soul were freed from the shackles of the mate bond that kept her standing still for far too long and threatened to do the same this time.She would not have it. She refused to feel this way for a man who treated her like her mate did. He killed her, and he did it in a sneaky way. The after-effects left Aakifahlynn drowsy, her eyelids heavy. She struggled to keep them open, her blue iris disappearing as they rolled back occasionally, then focused again as she battled.But it was a fight that she was losing even though she felt empty and light as a feather. Suddenly she slumped back on the seat, unable to stay up and wanting to give in to whatever it was.This sudden tiredness overwhelmed her. This process had taken every last bit of strength Aakifahlynn had left after the night that she had. And it was a sweet slumber that beckoned her.Aakifahlynn almost hit

    "Exactly, the same Aakifahlynn that hasn't the slightest clue of what's really going on," Duke Chapman added to the King's words. However, he was interrupted before he could continue."And what about the now vacant Elder positions?" The Vampyre, Viscount Everald Ferguson, ardently enquired. He knew the absurdity of accusing Aakifahlynn of this. Besides, he was more concerned about the Eldership.He asked what was undoubtedly on everyone's mind, but none dared to bring it up. And as Viscount Ferguson braved the room, the rest suddenly had so much to say, chiming in.Duke Chapman took the opportunity to respond, "Gentlemen, surely we have more pressing matters to discuss." Duke Chapman was convinced he was a shoo-in for one of the elder positions. After all, he was a werewolf. If history was proof of anything, he would say he was indeed a sure thing as one of the werewolves in the council and a Duke.Only an Elder was higher in rank."I would say the stability of the kingdom is also of

    Jairus's eyes closed as he leaned his head back on his chair and lived in that moment again, also adding to it, picturing in his mind's eye what he would do when he got her back.Jairus was irked at how Aakifahkynn had been brushing him off when all he wanted to do was live in her. But she had never brushed him off before.And there was that voice in the back of his head whispering that he was never that aggressive in his sexual approach towards her either. But he simply chose not to acknowledge it.When he got her back, he would treat her better, that's for sure ...Jairus no longer had the urge for Taisiya like he now did with his wife…"Aakifahlynn, Aakifahlynn, Aakifahlynn, that is all I hear from you... I cannot take it anymore," Taisiya had shouted and stormed out, leaving him sitting behind his desk in his study that day.Then she had been in the hospital since the night of the ball, refusing to see anyone. He allowed it. No one needed to know his intentions. The doctor said sh

    Taisiya held out because she had exhausted herself soon after her stunt to spy on Aakifahlynn and Jairus. Being invisible was no easy feat, and she was pregnant.She'd started to spot and was ordered to rest and lay off from exerting herself. Taisiya knew these twins would get her where she needed to be, so she listened to the Doctor.Then, her babies were more important, and what was waiting a few days? She'd told herself after one week or two, she would be able to do some light magic to strengthen her hold on Jairus.Taisiya had come too far for anything to sully her plans now. She could no longer wait that long and did not have to.Taisiya had also used magic after the Doctor's warning to kill Aakifahlynn after the following night of Aakifahlynn's seduction.Jairus had started to lie to her, and she realized how much her influence was failing. So not thinking clearly or rationally about why they kept Aakifahlynn alive, to begin with. Taisiya was suddenly consumed with ending her li

    Aakifahlynn stood on a rock, trying to balance herself and avoid falling into the raging dark waters. Her long blonde hair wrapped in a tight bun slightly loosened, causing tendrils of hair to escape their confines, and whipped around in a frenzy with the velocity and vigorous movement of the sea breeze that threatened to topple her over along with the body she carried.The noisy, aggressive waves roared as they thrashed against the slippery, broken-down slabs of walls and rocks. Aakifahlynn quickly braced herself and tossed the warrior in as far as possible, which was not far at all. He barely made it off the rocks. Then she stood there and watched as the waves did the rest. Thankfully, the waves literally scooped up the warrior.It was not that Aakifahlynn was weak. She was simply feeble in her rushed decision to throw the warrior out in the sea like this for the sea creatures to devour. Actually, she was contemplating a proper burial under the moon for him.But she did not have

    Aakifahlynn sighed and continued her inspection.The beautiful furniture is royal, rich purple with intricate gold highlights.The luxurious couch set to her right was purple with gold trimming and feet, paired with a gold iron frame and glass at the top center table, with a mini bar area, a small fridge, and bar stools to finish the look. It did not go unnoticed to Aakifahlynn that she was in a room decorated in her favorite color, royal purple.Her searching, curious eyes slid past that and saw that there were double doors she assumed to be the exit. Straight ahead of her across the room was another double door, which Aakifahlynn thought was the closet because she believed the single left door was the toilet. Before that, a table with chairs, purple seating, a small desk with books and parchments scattered about, and an office chair were partitioned. The walls were painted in a warm lilac-colored pallet with gold moldings.The ceiling was the same lilac, and the two gold and purpl

    As such, Emperor Demarion Dracul was prepared with the facts. He strolled over to a small table in the room they were all in, took up a few parchments of paper, and gestured it toward Aakifahlynn, his eyes never leaving her.'Why was Jairus so eager to find me?' This was a surprise to Aakifahlynn. She was in her thoughts.Aakifahlynn absentmindedly walked towards him, her blue eyes never leaving his. She now focused on him and looked for any sight of dishonesty, but she found none. Nonetheless, what she knew about the Ayacqueans outweighed her judgment.Too much was going on, so she must proceed cautiously and be suspicious, keeping her guard up until the end, and victory was hers or proven otherwise.Taking the small stack from Emperor Dracul's hand, Aakifahlynn's eyes widened at what she held: a sketch of her, offering five thousand gold coins, which is five hundred thousand dollars, to anyone with information about her, leading to her safe return.Her already widened eyes widened

    "Oh, this is a surprise. I was expecting somewhere less..." Aakifahlynn gestured to her surroundings."Lavish." Emperor Dracul finished for her, his hands behind his back."Yes, I mean, I held out hope you were not taking me to the dungeons, but this?" Her hands rose and fell back onto her lap as she gestured to the room and environment.At her words, The Emperor hid his look as if she'd slapped him in his face. He would never dream of letting her stay in the dungeons.Emperor Demarion Dracul knew he had to tread carefully with how much he disclosed and how soon. And he would continue to hold out despite his advisor and second-in-command's warnings...But the bottom line is he would never let her stay anywhere less than his palace. "The Emperor had spoken. You and your family are safe and welcome here as long as needed."Aakifahlynn blinked, then blinked again, "I must thank the Emperor. When can I meet him?" Demarion was taken aback for a moment.

    Back in familiar surroundings, Taisiya, though feeling defeated and weak in her body and mind, was resolute in grappling with the weight of her responsibilities and the fear of failing again. This visit, while it did provide her with some much-needed support, also stirred a sense of impending conflict within her, a war between her determination and her doubts.The only thing was her enemy's elusivity. Elder Raul Zev was cunning, and she wondered who was backing him. This only made her more vengeful, snapping at anything and everyone.Her plans to be the trusted Queen to step in were no longer possible the way she'd initially planned. But when she returned home, Taisiya was reminded of what she was working towards.The wasteland they called home, where they hid from other sea creatures while trying to survive in an almost un-survivable place, was hard to ignore.Down there it was always dark and cloudy, except when the starfish graced them with their magnificent presence, glowing iride

    A Duke can only do so much, and Taisiya knew this much. His reach was not as far-reaching as the Alpha King's, and his word was not as final as the Alpha King's. Looking deep into her mate's love-filled gaze for what she thought would be the last time, she grabbed him into one last tearful, passion-filled kiss for the night.Tears streamed down her cheeks, wanting to smudge her neatly done makeup. She then pulled away, shoulders back, head high, and walked away from him without another word or a second glance, making up her mind to leave him and this fantasy behind her.That night, they went their separate ways.Duke Mark Chapman did not pursue her; he let her go because what she said struck a chord with him. She was right. Was he ready to throw it all away just like that?Was he even prepared for such a move?He had to be innovative and plan better. Based on his mate's reaction, what would he prepare for if she would not run away with him?She left him with much to think about, even

    Taisiya knew she needed to escape this room momentarily to regroup. Duke Chapman's gaze was becoming intoxicating, almost suffocating. The longer they gazed upon each other from across the room, the more she felt unable to breathe.There was an undeniable pull toward him, and Taisiya did not like it one bit. At the same time, her inner being hoped she would be followed when she slipped away. Soon enough, after all the introductions, casually light conversations, and a drink or two, Taisiya felt it appropriate to excuse herself to the powder room for fresh air. After all, cigars and other gentlemanly treats kept the men busy.She soon whispered into Jairus's ear while her eyes bore into Chapman's, who was now chatting with a Vampyre, Earl Phillippe Paulsen, on the other side of the room. Duke Chapman soon whispered something to the Earl, quickly excusing himself and slipping out the back after he observed Taisiya.Taisiya ran straight past the powder room, through the kitchen, and ou

    Jairus, the Alpha King, found himself in a precarious position. His aim was obstructed by a less-than-genuine statement from Viscount Everald Ferguson, a Vampyre with his own ambitions. The air sizzled with uncertainty as Jairus navigated this challenging terrain.Alpha King Jairus wanted to wait for Duke Chapman as the Duke was his top choice. However, Viscount Ferguson made the option of waiting any longer difficult. However, Alpha King Jairus was not about to back down. He was prepared to demand, even challenge if necessary, "Great point, Viscount Ferguson. I cannot argue with you there. However, this is the nomination process for the Eldership position." His words were a thinly veiled warning, a sign of the tension that was building. Jairus's voice resonated with the weight of the Eldership, a position that held significant power and influence. His tone and mannerisms underscored the gravity of the situation.He continued, his gaze shifting around the room, meeting everyone's,

    Taisiya, the Duke's close friend and confidante, or was it something much more? Yes, it was so much more.She was becoming desperate.

    Aakifahlynn stirred awake, taking a few seconds to get caught up. She was resting but had no recollection of getting to her room, let alone her bed.She surmised Demarion, the disgraced Emperor who had brought her here after the hospital. Gosh, the hospital, Aakifahlynn, hoped everyone had fully recovered.She stretched and sat up, wondering what time of day it was and how long she had been out. Her pretty blue eyes slid to the large clock on the wall.Long and short, hands were on twelve, and by the light shining in from outside, Aakifahlynn knew it had to be 12 noon.She sighed. A day had passed, and she knew it. Aakifahlynn recalled it being midday when she was at the hospital. Nevertheless, she felt good but comprehended she needed to run.Thinking of her next move, sadness, and loneliness engulfed Aakifahlynn, and she took a moment to wallow, falling back on the pillow.It dawned heavily on her that she was entirely ALONE with no one to trust.And who she could trust, she wanted

    First, on the agenda, Aakifahlynn visited Pauline, and Pauline accompanied her to the hospital, which was almost overflowing with people suffering from the same ailment as Pauline's daughter.This hospital was more significant than the one in the Kingdom of Tamman. Aakifahlynn walked side by side with Pauline as she observed her surroundings.It was her first time here, and she still compared the Empire to the Kingdom. Little did Aakifahlynn know that this was not her first time here. Maybe in this timeline, it is her first time…The hospital smelt of bleach and some other types of robust chemicals. Aakifahlynn saw medical equipment and instruments in the Gazini Empire that they did not have in the Kingdom of Tamman either, and here she thought the crown had the latest and best in everything.It is a vast building with three floors, beds running the length of opposite walls, and no privacy.The second floor housed rooms where they perform surgeries; the third was for children.Upon e

    Suddenly, the clouds grumbled in anger. Darkness filled the atmosphere. Demarion had swooped in, ripped the Duke away from Aakifahlynn, and pelted him across the lot. He then disappeared and reappeared in front of the Duke across the lot, picked him up, and held him steady. At the same time, he shoved his sharp, elongated, claw-like hands into the Duke's chest and tore out his heart.Demarion moved with the speed of lightning; he did all this before Aakifahlynn could utter her next line of seduction or make another sound of pleasure or before the Duke could even process what was happening.Demarion squeezed the Duke's heart and crushed it; only tissue and clumps of clot-like blood caressed the dirt floor.Demarion was not about to watch her flirt and seduce this man.
