Weeks have passed after the horrible ordeal and Ari have never step out of the mansion. Not even once and same thing goes with his brother.
Throughout the day, every single day, they would help Zara to heal, clean her wounds and attend to her every needs despite Zara always refusing their help. She told them how shameful it was to be treated like a child but they didn’t care. She was their number one priority.
Mikael was just ready to visit Zara that afternoon. Work from Adam made him busy that past few day and he misses her so much.Half way done with his documents, he quickly grab his coat when the grandfather clock rang. He walks down the stairs of his family home and heads towards the living room when he stops.A grin formed on his face seeing Zara stood facing the fireplace. She
Mikael took a very deep breath. The most air he had ever breathe in and he made sure that he is well aware of what he wants to say before knocking on the old wooden door of the castle office.When a voice answered him, Mikael enters and rather than feeling nervous or scared, he was furious.Looking back at his younger brother sorting out documents with Dominic, he approach them and slam the large envelope on the table.The table shook from his force and both man in front of him look at him with a surprise expression."You made a deal regarding the Kalinuo land and tell me nothing?"Adam returns to his conversation with Dominic before telling him, "Its a done deal, Mika. I have more important things to do than discuss about this now."Mikael felt something inside of him snap. He turns to the sofa behind him and slam the huge furniture to the wall until feathers from the pillow tore open leaving mess on the floor.Dominic and Adam stop talking
Just like any usual weekends, Adamwould be at the Karza castle. He sat under the glass roof of his gazebo, looking ahead at the rose garden in front of him, all bloom gorgeously and the scent it release in the air was very soothing.The maze near the garden stood eight foot tall, reminding him how as a child, he would go here to play with his mother.Despite not having a father that should have spent more time with him as Adam had with his sons, he was grateful that he was able to be the man he is today.Able to love his family without the fear of looking weak in the eyes of his people which end up becoming his father's main concern as king.His mind was so affected by the death of his parents death that he was always cautious. Too cautious and his madness became the bane of his existence.Adamlaid back on the chair with his white shirt unbutton. The weather was hot and windy and it calms the wolf inside of him to want to just lay down on the lush
Ariadne was again spending her evening in the comfort of the old bookstore in town. It has been a week since she last sees Abram once he stops visiting her home and no doubt her mother has her name written all over it. She understands somehow that the less they see each other, the better.Her wolf was quiet and she didn't feel that spark with him as much as he does with her. Plus, she was forbidden to tell anyone her true origin since her mother feared that people would want to hurt her and though she still questions the motive behind it, she respects Zara's intention and stick with it.Of course there was disappointment with her wolf for not responding to Abrams but that's life. We can't always get what we want.Shifting through the shelves at the furthest part of the library, Zara scroll through all the books she has read in the past. When a sudden grip made her hiss in pain, she was ready to turn and unleash hell upon the rude individual for hurting her un
Are you her actual kin, Ari? Is Eve.. Zara related to you?"She looked down and refuse to answer him."Ariadne. This is no joke. People's life is at stake. You need to tell me the whole truth."
A week agoAdam was just a few feet away from his mansion door when a grip on his hand made him turn, ready to attack whatever intruder that has enter his front yard. He was shocked to see Judy with her cloths ripped and blood dripping from the slashes marking her skin.
"How has it been, Adam? Truth to be told, I have missed you so much." Zara stood up and walk to the front of the desk. She sat on the edge of the desk and grin at Adam who looks very upset."What the hell are you talking about? What are you doing here, Zara? Why is there Naags in my building and in Dzhimara. What did you do?"
Zara woke up with sweat drenching her body. Her heart was beating fast in her chest and her eyes wildly run everywhere all over her bedroom to see if anyone was there. She cups her head and close her eyes, breathing deeply to calm her slightly panic fromShe stares outside and sigh. It was daytime and it was time to work. She got up and bring her aching body to her bathroom. She filled her tub and sat on the edge as her mind drift far.
Six months passed It took months to rebuild Dzhimara. The number of death recorded was devastating but the number of enemies they have taken down was more. The seal around the gate was built up once more and the teamwork among the forest witch ensured the gate will remain strong for years to come. Homes were rebuilding from scratch but as the new king of Dzhimara, Abram made sure that all his citizens, even the humans, and the witches are fully helped. They are his responsibilities now. Thinking back to the war before, he had lost so much, his patriarch and his mate too lost their dear ones. Everyone thought that in time, they would heal but till today, the pain of losing his father remains strong. His mother no longer resides in the dungeon. For her crimes against the former nation of Zhateria, she was banished to the forest of Afhrin. Many had questioned whether allowing her to keep her wolf was a wise idea but seeing her mother's state, finding out she too has
Adam crawls towards Eve with his remaining strength. After closing Mikael's eyes, he roared as much as his breath could. He mourned for the death of the man who once cared for him as a child. It may be an act, may be a lie but it didn't feel like it. He made Adam hated him but he understands that a part of his hate is justified. Adam had taken the woman he loves. It wasn't on purpose but what's done is done. "Sleep well brother. I wish things were different. I hated you for what you have done but you will always be my brother. I just hope you felt the same." After laying a kiss on his forehead, he quickly with little energy he has, crawled towards Eve.
The memories fade and it became faster this time. Scenes after scenes takes over showing her Mikael real self who slowly deteriorates from the innocent boy he was to a wrecked man. The time he had hid when she met Adam at the meadow as a child, her marrying Adam with his eyes looking aback, brimming with tears and bloodied hands after digging his nails deeper into his palm from clutching his hand too hard.His raw emotion exploding in his room the night Adam and Eve spend their time as husband and wife. All his things, beds, tables, cloth was ripped and destroyed. He seated at the corner of the room, crying his hearts out and slamming the floor beside him.
When she turns, she saw a woman, crying on the ground with her face swollen and full of bruises. Blood drips down her chin and in front of her was a soldier, covered with iron armour. He held a bottle of alcohol since his face was red and oily. He was a handsome man and the lady herself was beautiful. The house they were in was made from grey bricks, something that people in the olden times would stayed in.The house itself was decorated with finest of things, finely sculpted furniture, huge fireplace, hearty meals on the table all dressed in red and gold which means this home belongs to someone who is close to Dzhimara's royal family. After the man finish cursing at the beaut
Adam's wound made him slower than he should which gave Mikael an advantage but Adam training make sure that he is able to avoid any thrust from Mikael's sword. Fast reflect from Adam's hand causes his sword to cut Mikael's arm deeply. Mikael hissed but his gaze remains at Adam.When Mikael stands behind Adam in a flash, he swung the tip of his sword and ug deeply into the wounds from earlier on. Blood pouring with painful groan escaping his lips. Adam turn and slam the back of his sword in Mikael's abdomen.Seeing he was distracted from his pain, Adam swiped his feet below him causing Mikael to fall. His swords were knocked off from his hand. Adam grinned."You may be a great talker, Mikael but you suck at fighting. Told you not to skip practise." An advice he once given Mikael growing up. Adam was about to bury his sword in his chest when he hears Eve soft moan calling out to him. He turn to see Eve completely awake and standing up weakly. His distraction almost risk him his life se
Healing Adam's wound took longer than expected. News of war in Dzhimara reach to them and from the amount of death enquired, Abram was devastated. Though wolves was able to defeat them at first, the amount of vampires and dark creatures from the forest like Gollum, Orcs and demons that had joined the war to gain control of Dzhimara including humans life alike made it hard for them to defend their fortress. After Adam was healed, he sat up still cringing with the sensation of the pain pounding intensely with every movement. The forest warlock sat beside him, breathing hard after putting so much magic and power to heal the wolf king."I have to save her. I need to go." Adam gritted. He was bare from waist up after his shirt was soaked with his blood. Abram tried to push him to stay but even in his weak state Adam was stronger than his son. "You are weak, father. You don't even know where they are. You have to take care of yourself.""He is right. My magic heals you now but like a medic
Laying Eve at the grass, Mikael couldn't help but push her hair behind her ear, touching her warm skin and gazing at her. It took hundreds of years for him to find her again and it blow his mind seeing her remain the same. The same smooth skin, the long silky ivory hair, red lips as thick lashed above her pixie nose. She was perfection.He knelt down beside her. It will take at least half a day before Eve would know where they were. Back where it all begin. Observing every featured on her petite body, Mikael smiled, making sure everything little detail about her is imprinted in his mind. She remains flawless as she was when he first saw her when they were a childHis eyes glare at her. He frowned and his grip on the ground beneath him tightens. He stands up straight again and anger twisting his handsome face. He was furious at how things have gone in his life. Everything he ever wanted, everything he ever need was taken from him. All falls into the hand of his step
A rough shook of his body awakes him and his eyes abruptly open in shock. He sits quickly, inhaling all the air his lung was robbed off and he started heaving and coughing. Abram's hand rub his back and he gently whisper to him to calm down. Adam mind was blank for a second but memories from Eve's heart flooded his every being making him s rambled to his feet and searching for Eve. Though she only just lay next to him, Brahms was panting excessively. He knelt down beside Eve and start pulling her unconscious body near him. He hears people around him calling out to him but he ignored them and hug Eve tightly to his chest. Her head rested beneath his chin and her face closed over his chest. He caress her hair and rock her body gently with his.He hears gasping from the voice around him and he look down to see Eve's jet black hair turning ivory from its root. Her pale skin blushed and more life is added to her body. No more dark vibes basking from her small form. Only warmt
King Aidan wore a gentle smile while offering a white floral cup of tea to Adam. Adam nodded while taking the glass, his hand shivers and he drank the tea with his fingers trembling holding the handle."I am fine, your highness. " He didn't know how to ask him whether the king was fine too. He was dead after all. Would it be rude? Then a thought got to him so he turn to look into King Aidan's eye, feeling even more determine."This is Eve's heart. It's where she 'rest' when she is in pain. I'm sorry but both of you..uh..is it just my imagination or hers?"Queen Aaliyah chuckled and she brush her husband's hand. She kissed his cheek before leaving him alone. Adam stood as a sign of respect but Aidan shook his head and Adam see the fair queen looking a whole lot of Eve walk away, heading to the front door. He is now alone with King Aidan."What do you think, Adam? Are we just your imagination or Eve's? The goddess creation is a very interesting sight to behold.
