CHAPTER 149 FORMER SELF RESTOREDTEDDY'S P.O.VAfter the terms were agreed upon everyone disbursed, not wanting to be in the same room as one another anymore. I, however, stayed behind, to remain in the state of self-wallowing from my guilt and grief I guess. I sat in the armchair that he had sat in during our Christmas gathering as I thought back on the memory. It wasn't that long ago. He had such a big smile and was so happy. I wanted to remember his smile forever. Christmas was his favorite holiday. He once told me that it was his favorite because of the traditions his father gave him while growing up. I may not personally see the hype about Christmas like he did but what I did see was true happiness. Something I wanted my son to feel each and every day, not just on one specific day. I was lost in my cherished memories while stroking Elias's head in a comforting manner. He was far too young to understand the pain and loss that I felt. Which was the only good thing out of this. I'm
CHAPTER 150 BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACETEDDY'S P.O.VWe all began to pile into the vehicle we were taking to get to the house. For some reason, I was becoming insanely anxious."Where are we all supposed to sit?" Helga asked, irritation obvious in her tone."Lap up for all I care," Trystan replied as he climbed into the driver's seat."I have a nice and warm seat right here," Darion said to her as he patted his thigh."No thank you, I'd rather walk." She responded sarcastically."Just get in Helga, we don't have time for childish games. If you want your relic get in so we can get this job completed." Trystan said, making her let out a sigh before climbing in and sitting in Darion's lap.I left Elias with Tanner, a trusted friend. I would've asked Lilyanna, but I chose not to because she was angry with me. Tanner would protect him with his life so I wasn't concerned. I just hoped this mission didn't turn south and I made it back safely to my son."Where is the key anyway?" Helga
CHAPTER 151 LET THE FIGHT BEGINTEDDY'S P.O.V My mind seemed to be on a continuous loop, my mate was alive. Standing right in front of me, not a single scratch from the fall or even from the fighting on his body. I was so happy he was safe. However, the happiness quickly faded when realization hit me. My mate was alive but in the hands of a dangerous being. Every second counted while dealing with Iblis. Have you ever been in a position where your morals were at battle with one another? A place in one's mind where you knew right from wrong, yet every part inside of you was screaming to choose selfishly? There was this rational part of my brain trying to talk me off the cliff. A part of me wanted to be selfless and make the correct decision while another part was begging me to be selfish for once. It truly reminded me of the decision-making process where people use the phrase: 'The devil and angel were on my shoulder, each pulling me in their direction'. To me, phrases like that are j
CHAPTER152 KILL THEM ALLFENIRS 'S P.O.V When I woke up, I was contained in a magical bondage that was wrapped tightly around my body. "Good, you're awake." A voice I hadn't heard in what felt like ages said. I looked up to see the one person I didn't expect standing before me. "Liam, is that you? What are you doing here? Am I... Am I dea..." "Goddess, your voice is annoying. No, unfortunately, you're not dead... Yet." He said with a shrug as he interrupted me. "I don't understand. The last thing I remember was..." "Falling to your inevitable death? You did. Or you were but I guess it was your lucky day. Iblis just couldn't allow it. As much as the man is irritating, he always has a plan. So here we are. You're alive and you will see your mate very soon." What was that supposed to mean? Did they have Teddy too? I am a damn King and I couldn't even fight something already dead! 'Give yourself some grace, you can't fight something you can't touch.' My wolf, Kingston said. He h
CHAPTER 153 THE BATTLE BEGINSTEDDY'S P.O.V At that moment, my entire life flashed before my eyes. Knowing I was about to die was the most terrifying feeling. I've been afraid of dying before, but this was entirely different. Knowing Fenirs and I would be leaving our child an orphan sent a sadness beyond measure coursing through my body. I needed to get out of my thoughts so I shifted my eyes to scan our team's face. However, looking at them made me think about the reality even more. We were all still so young. With our entire lives to live. I quickly looked away from them to stare back at our attackers since they were keeping me lost in my thoughts. The scenery in front of me told me that this was going to be an all-out war. Iblis had so many Tribal Wolves. How had he gotten away with abducting she-wolves this many times? Surely recurring disappearances over the years would have raised concern? I watched as they began to shift into their wolves, approaching us threateningly in e
CHAPTER 154 HAVE THE TABLESTURNED?TEDDY'S P.O.V It all happened so fast. One minute I was walking down the rows of wolves, and then the next thing I knew my body was being flung across the yard. I was so close to the border of the woods, so close to being able to get to Iblis that it made me sick. I looked down as blood poured from my stomach. A branch sticking out that had impaled me from behind. It felt like my lungs were giving out on me. I couldn't breathe, I was gasping for air while also feeling like I was drowning in my own blood as it poured from my mouth. "You didn't think you could defeat us all, did you?" The voice asked in a malicious tone. I chose to remain silent, however. I wouldn't give her the satisfaction of trying to speak with a mouth full of blood. "Some of us have been around long enough to know all the tricks you're using. Don't think for a moment that your tricks will work on me." She then said when I didn't speak. "You better do something fast or that wou
CHAPTER 155 HER LAST BREATHFENIRS 'S P.O.V Even with these wolves having powers, I was still able to keep up with taking them down. Their powers didn't make them powerful, which was surprising. I guess not everyone can be born as powerful as my mate. Speaking of, I quickly scanned the area to make sure she was okay, to my surprise she was walking straight through them. Most of the wolves were unable to touch her. It was like she put up some type of magical barrier that kept her untouchable. That's interesting. I watched longer as some approached but would fly backward. It was as if touching the forcefield sent them flying in the air. Before I could process what was going on another wolf jumped at me, biting down my leg as their head shook back and forth. I could feel pain ripple through as they broke the skin and blood started dripping out. I bent down, snapping my teeth at the small wolf. I managed to grab ahold of the excess fur around their neck as I yanked with all the power i
CHAPTER 156 BLACK WIDOWTEDDY'S P.O.V I stared at the woman in front of me, fascinated. How was she not under the effects of Iblis's command? Was she so powerful that his words couldn't penetrate her mind? "Who are you?" I asked. "I'm everything you wish to be, but everything you're not." She means courageous and powerful. Things I desire but fail at miserably every day. "You must have a name?" "He called me Ferocious. Whereas your mother was Malicious and your best friend Lucy was called what again?" "Widow." "That's right. Cute, clever. She is lethal, but don't black widows only kill their mates?" She asked with a smirk on her face. "If you mean the actual spider, they only kill their mates after they are impregnated." Her face crinkled up as if she were trying to tell me something. Was that amusement written on her face? "Why are you looking at me like that?" I asked when she didn't respond. "Just amazed at how oblivious you really are." Her head was cocked to the side
