“Where’s Nico?” Abram asked in the breakfast table. Everyone else except for Ambrose was eating at the table. Ariadne and Adam, both looking tired haven’t touch any of their food while the rest was taking small bites from their plate.
“I thought he went home to grab his stuff?” Maksim answered him, being the only one having the largest appetite with no worries painting his face.
“What? Did he go alone?” Abram spoke with concern lacing his voice.
Everyone raised their voice and Nikolai asked. “He went with some guards. Why are you looking scared?’
Abram rub his forehead, leaning on the table, “His home is outside of the walls. You people should’ve tell me. What if something bad happen to him?”
Adam took a sip of his coffee and spoke with his eyes still looking down at his plate. He had a tired expression, “He’ll be fine. He is my personal guard. He’s strong. He went to bring his family her so he should be fine.”
Abram didn’t look convince. He
Night time darkens the whole room where Nico resides. He was resting alone in his worn out bed. He wore no clothes except for the cloth bandage wrapped horizontally on his chest and another long bandage curled around his broken arm. The bruises around his body has already turn dark purple and in his sleeping form, he shivers, gritting his teeth with sweats darting his forehead.Out of nowhere, a specks of tiny sparkling snowflakes materialized above him. The small dust like ice scattered around him and his wound slowly heals. Nico exhale with relief feeling the pain pulsating in his body subsides. His eyes open slowly and he sat up with a moan. He felt the open wound n his body is slowly closing so he took of the bandage and rub his newly healed body. But when he tries to move his body and stand, he felt a sharp pain throb from his former wound. He pants at the sensation. He started to remember what had happen before he was almost beaten to death.Eve would heal hi
“A surprise! Oh, Adam, you shouldn’t. You know how much I love to kill wolves right> And her eyou brought your son. Tell me, have you sais farewell to Ariadne? How great is it if I get to trhow your lifeless head to her feet? Maybe then she’ll understand how weak her mate is and realise the mistake she did by betraying me.”“She is your daughter!” Abram growled back. Eve scoffed, “She is not my daughter. Ambrose and her is not mine, not then, not now. My real daughter is dead due to the lieks of you.”“She loves you. Ariadne and Ambrose love syou so much. Surely all those years of caring for them, loving them as if they were your own means something to you?” Abram’s voiced softened. Aiak shook he rhead. Her smiles dropped, “Like I said, my real daughter died a long time ago. I thought that these two would be enough to replace the emptiness of losing my child but I was wrong. Ariadne and Ambrose is a mistake.”Adam move closer. Unlike the people around him, he wo
“So Eve has the stone now…I assume that we are all dead.” Maksim spoke in a defeated voice.“There is still time. We just have to talk to her thoroughly and get that stone back!” Abram answered.Ariadne shook her head and cried out in offence. “Stop it with all this talking, Abram! I love you but talking won’t work anymore. The only way we can stop mama is by changing her back. She has no emotion inside her or any sense of symphaty and care. We have to bring that back.”They all stare at each other and nodded in agreement. Some of the guards around them stood outside of the clear wdow to make sure no one would sneak in around Sviatoslavich mansion. Moreover, Adam just sat in front of the fireplace while everyone else was having their meeting by their sofa. Ambrose wasn’t present. He was still overwhelmed with so much anger at how Eve had rejected him and almost killed him. No matter how much Ariadne would try and console him, he did not waver from his anger. Someti
When Khalid turns frozen solid, Eve's mind travels to a dreamland. It was an alternative vision from Khalid hopes and dreams of how and what they would've been together. When his tears was frozen with him, the essence of his soul was absorb into her body.In his vision, she sees herself in her former body. Her ivory hair falls free behind her back. She wores a thick white coat around her and in her arms holds a baby with thick ivory curls. The precious child who she has no idea if it were a boy or a girl was pulling her long hair and she smiles seeing her baby cooing at her.She realised that she was standing in the middle of the flower garden in the castle. Flowers surround her like it was her background. Eve's sob was caught in her throat when she see her parents behind her, looking over her with a smile gleaming on their face. When Khalid arrive to the garden gate, he had a wide smile in his face and after greeting the king and queen with upmost respect, h
Smell of wet dogs and howling fills every part of the castles. Reports from the pier was also the same. Every werewolves in Afhrin has turn human with their wolves part separated from them. Chaos fills the land. Adam sat in the meeting chair surrounded by high councils and knights leader from all over Afhrin who was also part wolves. Now everyone in the room is bickering with each other, all with a plan of their own on how to not fight but remain alive under the pending vampires attack.Adam sat, his fingers massaging his own forehead with his sons next to him, Ariadne and his brother with Kristopher. All accompanied by their wolves who even though is not a part of them anymore (physically), they remain loyal and stand beside him.Ariadne is having a hard time controlling her chuckled seeing Ambrose wolf has the same grim, nnoyed expression on its face like Ambrose. They were one and the same just like her wolves who is glued to Abram's wolf. Purring her heart out
Using behind the vampire fort wasn't easy especially bringing their wolves with them. Abram made sure Ariadne stayed behind him all the time with Adam behind her. Their wolves crawl on the ground gently with Abram's wolf guarding Ariadne's wolf diligently. Everyone wore a plain black cloth gotten from the castle maid that hasn't been worn to avoid any wolf like smell sticking to it since vampires have great sense of smell. Their wolves made sure to roll their body on sands to cover their smell. Poor Ariadne's wolf hated the dirt and the only thing that differ her and Ariadne was how much of a diva she was.
Everyone was shivering at the drop of temperature in Zhatiera. The ground they found themselves bring chills down their spine and they can feel a strong energy, pulsating around them and they knew, this was the throne room where Great King Aidan and Queen Aaliyah died. Passing through the rubbles of the castle, they were to shock to find Khalid frozen and laid near a wall with flowers blooming beside him. They walk away with fear taking over their mind. Worried if they would go through the same thing.Eve was laid on the ground with Adam coat laid beneath her head to make her comfort
The soft tussled of grass brushing through the tips of his finger made his eyes flickers. He felt the cold wind around him brushing his hand as if someone just whispered to him. Scent of daisies in the air brings so many forgotten memories that he had left behind but the soft voices of an angel, humming in the night made him stand abruptly and shock to see the darkness surrounding him.The stars and the moon was the only light afforded to him and it creates a beautiful shown in the tress, willowing grass and silky river runs making soft, peaceful voices. He stare at the sight around him, his back turn so his eyes can observe the entrance where he once sneak into to meet Eve. He understands now he was at the meadow. Their secret meadow. Where it all starts.He walks slowly, taking in the peaceful view in front of him. Totally different than what Dzhimara is having at the moment. Again, he hears the soft humming coming from the tree near him where he and Eve used to clim
