NOELLE'S POV,

It is still dark when Gabriel and I arrive at Hallow Forest. It seems no one has arrived yet. All of a sudden it goes silent everywhere around us.

''Gabriel? I have a bad feeling about this,'' I say anxiously.

The ground begins to shake, and hundreds of dark humans seem to emerge from the forest. I see fear in Gabriel's eyes, and I get ready to fight. I look at Gabriel and he is whispering, ''I am sorry.''

I dreamed about all our moments together and when I woke up, I knew the mate bond was set in place." Tears of joy roll down my cheek, "I had the same dream. I am so happy you are okay Gabriel. You have no idea how I felt watching you get attacked and then finding you unconscious and stabbed so many times."Gabriel strokes my face, "I thought I was protecting you, but I see now that you don't need protection. I saw in my dreams what you did to all the dark humans. You were incredible."

With a happy sigh, he falls back to sleep.He wakes up again in the morning from feeling the sunshine on his face. He immediately searches for Noelle her warm body with his hands.

He opens the door and looks at Noelle standing with her back towards him under the shower. She is singing and washing her hair, so she doesn't hear him come in.

He is dancing on his paws when he sees me coming with the meat."Ooooooo yummy thank you, mistress," he says in my mind.I smile and stroke his big head. "It's the least I could do after you saved me and Gabriel," I say back to him.Thorn digs into the food while he responds, "I thought I was going crazy I could feel everything you were feeling. The anger and then the ultimate sadness. I just knew I had to find you, mistress."I put my head against his neck. "I am glad you did.

Everyone worked together the last couple of hours to make floating plateaus for all the bodies.I leave the castle to go to the lake with Gabriel. Everywhere I go people look at me with big eyes and they either bow or clap for me. I quickly gained the image of the heroine that saved the world in the hours that have passed.

Purple light radiates off my whole body and I levitate myself above the castle. I must look like a bright purple star and people drop their weapons to look at me. I open up my mind to all creatures of the Under Realm and give them visions that they are being chased by their worst fear. The trick works effectively on the dark humans, and they all start running out of the inner part of the city screaming.My voice echoes through the city when I command my people and the dragons to hide inside buildings. I hold up my arms and call out to all the water in the city to obey me. Water starts to rise up from sewers and the small rivers. It all flows back to me and forms a big wall of water up into the sky. I put my hands forward and let a tsunami carry out the demons, stone giants, and fire creatures with full for

I find him looking much better and luckily Faith tells me she will be able to repair his wing, but he just needs rest.“I don’t need rest; I need to fight with you mistress!” Thorn says in my mind with a stubborn voice. I walk to him and give him a kiss on his snout, “You have protected me fiercely I couldn’t be prouder. Now I need you to take it easy so we can maybe live to fight another day.”Thorn follows me with grumpy eyes when I walk away but he obeys my command. I walk towards Luna who is talking with Zeus.

    NOELLE’S POV,As soon as we fly over the wall it feels like I wound up in a storm. Fire and weapons fly around me. I see light and explosions everywhere and it is immediately complete chaos. I can feel the impact of every blow that lands on Thorns armor. I look around to find Hades but all I can see are demons, dark humans, and creatures of Hell. Hades must have put up some illusion so he and the 4 horsemen can stay out of sight and let the rest of the army do most of the fighting.I bite my lip in frustration because there goes my plan B to take out the most powerful play-ers to end the fight. I let Thorn burn demons and dark humans in the field with dragon fire, but I notice it gets heavier for him by the minute. I don’t know how much damage the armor can hold. Angels are dropping light bombs and fighting flying creatures in the air. I see many of the Under Realm army being blown up but every hole we make seems to be filled up with new soldiers just as

Shivers go through my body, and I want to scream to Ga-briel that something is wrong, but I can’t speak. The amulet around my neck starts to get warm and levitates me up in the air.

I fall back into the ground hard and my body shakes from the impact.For some reason no one from Dandion seems to know what is going on because all around me is darkness.

They stop marching about 50 meters from the wall. The war drums become louder and they all start to shout battle screams in a language I don’t understand. Luna nods at a soldier on the wall and he walks towards a massive horn stationed on the wall. The horn blows a strong and vibrant call through the whole city. I can see everyone take their positions and with de-termined faces, they seem to say that they are ready for whatever comes at them.Then the war drums become silent and the front row of dark humans and soldiers starts run-ning to the wall.

He is running to-wards me but as soon as he sees me, he stops. We just stare at each other for a moment and then he runs towards me and swoops me in his arms. I can’t even begin to describe how good it feels to have his arms around me and smell his scent. He sits down on the floor holding me and I can hear his heart beating really fast. I take his face in my hands and put my fore-head against his, tears of joy travel down my cheeks. I look into his beautiful blue eyes and sigh with happiness. He softly strokes my cheek brushing the tears away and puts his lips on mine. I lean into his embrace and enjoy the sensation of his lips on mine again. I wish this moment would last forever.I look into his eyes again and I hear him say in my head, “I have missed you so muc
