CHAPTER 128 MEETING HIMTEDDY'S P.O.VEverything still felt off. This woman was too pippy, too excited, and far too fake for me to believe what she was saying. I only sat there in silence listening to her ramble on about how blessed she was to have been Trystan's mother."We knew y'all would come one day." She said as she glanced at the clock for the sixth time in 15 minutes."How?" I asked but really I was trying to get a better read on her.Why was she so skittish and jumpy? Did she know something that she was trying to hide?"Awoman came who looked just like you years ago.""Was her name, Marci?" Darion randomly asked."The name sounds familiar but all I knew was she looked like you." She said, turning to look at me. I still remained silent while trying to figure her out. The way she kept looking at me and at the clock made me a little uneasy."We turned her away and told her he was too young and we weren't ready for him to know the truth yet. She left with an understanding.""So
CHAPTER 129 WHERE IS MY MATE?FENIRS'S P.O.VTeddy never disconnected the call. All I heard when the line connected was 'How may I help you?' from a feminine voice before the line went static and then muffled. But not once did it disconnect. Did she accidentally call? Or did she want me listening in? I wasn't sure and I wasn't going to take a chance, so I decided to mute myself and remain on the phone to listen.I was at home working in the office while Elias was happily playing on the floor in his play-mat entertaining himself with his toys. I put the phone on speaker and continued to work while trying to listen in on what was being said. I couldn't hear much because of how muffled the background sounds were. However, what little I was able to hear sounded like Teddy questioning someone. It seemed as if she were suspicious of something, but I couldn't hear enough of the conversation to really know what she was suspicious about or why. All of a sudden, what felt like panic coursed thr
CHAPTER 130 I NEED ANSWERS!FENIRS'S P.O.VI was full of rage. How dare this arrogant man do this to his biological child not once but twice and feel guilty only once he knows her mother is still alive? But not enough guilt to tell her what he was doing. He not only betrayed her, he betrayed his sons. I don't even want to begin thinking about the betrayal he has caused the Kingdom. He would die for this.I told Lucy she could do the honor, but only once Teddy was safe at home. We don't know Trystan or what he was capable of. We also don't know if he was already affected by Iblis's sick ways.In the end, Teddy may want to kill her father herself. But I wouldn't allow that. She may hate him, but the guilt she'd carry after something like that would be hard to mentally recover from. Therefore, Lucy may be the best option for killing Drake."They were all useless when it came to knowing where she was located," Lucy said."So they blindly accepted a deal from a man they had no way of knowi
CHAPTER 131 WHAT DO YOU WANT? TEDDY'S P.O.V For some reason, my powers weren't working. It was as if the house was some form of magical vortex that wouldn't allow me to use my own gifts. And my brother was being anything but gentle. "Let's get this shit over with," His rough voice echoed out. "What do you want?" I asked as he pulled me down what seemed to be a never-ending hallway. "I don't want shit. There is nothing you can do for me." He responded more aggressively than necessary. "What is your fucking problem?" I asked as I stopped in my tracks, yanking my arm from his grasp. "Where do I even start?" He asked with a laugh. "How about what the hell you want with me and why you've taken me hostage?" "I am only doing what I was instructed to do. Nothing more, nothing less." "By Iblis?" I asked, praying to the Goddess he didn't get to him first. But I had a feeling he got to him long before I ever even knew of his existence. "By the only family I'll eve
CHAPTER 132 THE DEAL THAT WAS STRUCKFENIRS'S P.O.VI was running out of time. I had to find her before Iblis did to her what he had done to others, including her mother. All I could think about was how big of a trap this was and how I allowed it to happen. Of course, I knew she wouldn't listen. I tried telling her why I didn't want her to go but she insisted, with her gifts and her Alpha brothers, that she would be safe. Yet here we were experiencing what I was terrified of happening. She was stuck in this house with a man we knew about and was without either brother there to help her.I tried calling her multiple times but each time the call went straight to voicemail. We were waiting patiently for Helena to arrive so we could extract what information Drake knew out of his mind and then so we could locate Teddy."I'm here! I'm here!" She hollered as she approached the room. "I had to make a pit stop to grab some of Teddy's belongings so that I can do a locator spell once we have all
CHAPTER 133 DISAGREEMENTSTEDDY'S P.O.VIblis sat across from me, not saying a word. Only staring deep into my eyes. I felt like he was looking into my soul with how focused he was on me. I was becoming a bit uncomfortable. I knew he wanted my son, but why go through all this trouble to get me? I wasn't the key he had been searching for, so why?I looked over to see Trystan messing around with what I thought was a knife. He was using it to pick at his nails, like he was cleaning them."So he thinks his mother abandoned him. How convenient," I said, looking back at Iblis."That's what she did, did she not?""She made the choice to give him a better life so that he was protected from you!" I screamed in anger."Look where that got her. Speaking of good ole Marci, how is she doing?" He asked with a laugh. "You should know, you're the one that ruined her." I spat back as hatefully as I could."Hmm. All I did was offer her a life free of worry.""You tortured her. You fried her brain so b
CHAPTER 134 IT'S OPENEDFENIRS'S P.O.VI rushed around, making sure that with all of us leaving it wouldn't affect the safety of Elias. I ensured that he was protected in many ways. I had my guards on high alert with Tanner guarding him personally. I also had Helena cast a spell to protect him with her magic. Then, to be extra cautious, I ensured that he and my mother were in the safe room before I left. Luckily, the safe room was completely stocked with everything that either of them could need, and I didn't plan on being gone long. But, I couldn't take the chance of a sneak attack on my Kingdom so that Iblis could take my son while I was trying to get Teddy back. I had to make sure he was safe before rescuing his mom.Once everything was in order with Elias, it was time to make a move."Did you get everything?" I asked Helena as we started to load up."I believe so. You do realize that this isn't just going to be a rescue mission, right?" She asked with concern on her face.I knew w
CHAPTER 135 WHAT DO WE DO NOW?FENIRS'S P.O.VAs she made it to the door, it slammed shut. Helena began to speak in Latin as she waved her hands around the door."WE HAVE TO OPEN IT BACK UP!" I screamed in horror at the fact we had just shut my mate in on the other side of the door."We can't, Fenirs. We cannot let more out." Helena said in a sorrowful tone."Teddy was right at the door; we can't leave her there!" I raged as my wolf surfaced."She will understand, Fenirs, she was the one who didn't want the gates opened, to begin with.""Not if that means she will be stuck there!"I could feel the anger surfacing. How could she think like that? This was Teddy we were talking about, not just some random person. "We will find another way. Until then, I will remain here and keep the door closed the best I can. Y'all need to go track down my sister. When we get here on our side, we need to figure out how to remove Teddy from the underworld without releasing any more demons than we alread
