Constanza immediately sat up."What do you mean you can see?" she asked him."I can see you Connie, you are really pretty" he told her."You can really see me?" she asked again to be sure."Yes, I can see you" he repeated.She held her fingers up in front of him. "how many fingers am I holding?" she asked him. "one""two""three" he counted slowly."This is so weird, I had no idea fingers looked this way" he told her as he held her fingers, slowly examining them.Constanza hugged him tight."You can really see Killian" she told him."I guess I can. Everything seems so bright" he told her."Oh! I have a lot to teach you, I can show you colors and all of my favorite things." she said excitedly and then her face fell."What is it?" he asked."You want to die." she replied."Connie.... I" Killian was at a loss, he didn't know what to say. All his life, he had been in darkness and now that he could see, he wanted to explore the world, he didn't want to die. He wanted Connie to teach him t
"Wait, you all know about Killian?" Evena asked them."Yes, something you neglected to tell us the last time you were here." Ryder told him."How did you know about him?" Evena asked."he came here, didn't he?" Reni asked."Yes, my brother and his mate came here." Ava told him."where are they now?" Evena asked."far away from you all. And my aunt already knows about this, you won't take him back to the king. No fucking way" Ava told them."OK, let's all calm down. Ava, did you tell your aunt about him?" Dustin asked his daughter."Yes I did. Dad, when did you know he was your son?""not too long ago and I already told them that he isn't going back to Salvatore. I will face the king myself if I have to" Dustin replied."he looks so much like me Dad, he doesn't know I know about him though, Constanza was the one who told me. They are mates and they love each other so much." Ava gushed to her father."I know princess, I know everything" Dustin told his daughter fondly. He loved his daug
STARLIGHT COVENThey appeared in the coven. A witch rushed to them."Master Evena, Master Reni, this way" he said as he gestured for them to follow him.They followed the witch and he led them to the waiting room where they saw Constanza, Dreya and a chained up Killian on the floor."What happened?" Ryder asked in shock as he looked at Killian who looked so much like Ava that it was uncanny.Dreya stepped forward to block them at the entrance of the door."before you enter, you have to vow that none of you will take that boy back to the king." he told them firmly.They all vowed to him and he allowed them enter the room. Reni rushed to Killian."Hey! It's Reni. I am here to help" he told him."I don't think that will work, Constanza has tried talking to him, I have tried all the calming down spells I know but nothing is working." Dreya told him."he needs the eternal chaos, it's the only thing that will calm him down" Reni replied."do you have any with you?" Evena asked."No, it's ba
"So what is the plan?" Ryder asked Dreya. "We have to go back to the coven with Lily. You will carry Evena, I will hold both you and Lily and we go back" Dreya replied. "Do you think that will work?" Ryder asked. "Yes, it will. It will take more of my strength than usual but it will work." Dreya replied. "Connie is fine and once everything is settled, she will contact you" Ryder told Alessandro. "Thanks Ryder" Alessandro replied. Lily hugged Alessandro and gave him a kiss. "I will be okay, let me help Connie and I will come back to you. Take care of Lavender" she told him. "I will, take care of yourself" he told her. She looked at Rosa and Giovanni. "take care of him" she told them. "we will" Rosa told her. Ryder carried Evena and put him on his back. Dreya held Ryder and Lily's hands and they vanished from sight. STARLIGHT COVEN The four of them appeared. Reni rushed over to them. "What happened to Evena?" he asked. "exhaust
THE UNBINDINGReni and Dreya were in Killian's mind. Unlike Lily's mind that had been full of bright flowers, Killian's mind was filled with shadow and fog. Reni and Dreya couldn't even see where they were going."I can't see anything, can you?" Dreya asked."No, I can't see anything either." Reni replied."I will do a spell light" Dreya suggested."No, you can't." Reni opposed."Why?""Because we need to preserve our strength, we don't know what we might face." Reni told him."But we need to see, how are we going to move forward if we can't even see what's in front of us?" Dreya argued."Fine, but it has to be a little light" Reni told him.Dreya rolled his eyes and said a spell, a little ball of light came alive on his palm."Let's go" he told Reni.The both of them continued moving, their destination was the center of Killian's mind.Soon they started to feel they were getting close to their destination. The fog cleared and it suddenly became warm.They saw what appeared to be a ca
"Or you actually planned it all and the king fell into a well laid trap" Reni told him."Oh, you are right. I see why you are brilliant, you see a lot of things that aren't there. I planned it all, I made sure the king had only daughters, made him not to have a male son, killed his daughter and grandson during childbirth.""Did you really do all that?" Dreya asked sceptical."No, I might be a god but I am not that powerful. Everything that happened, that led us here happened because of greed and selfish desires.""What do you mean?" Reni asked."The king wanted a male when he had two wonderful daughters. Dustin had an affair with Freya when he had a beautiful mate. The king should have let Killian die but no he wanted to change fate. I had nothing to do with all this, I simply took advantage of it" Azazel said with a shrug."Why were the demons banished anyway, the vampires must have had a good reason." Dreya asked.Azazel became furious, "They were jealous of us, of our power and th

He looked at Azazel, determination shone in his eyes.Azazel smirked, "What are you going to do little witch?"Reni looked him dead in the eyes and he said, "Old gods, I offer myself as a blood sacrifice, send Azazel back to hell and free Killian of his clutches."Azazel dropped Dreya and looked at Reni in horror. "What have you done? How do you know about that?" he asked."Like you said, I am brilliant. I read a lot, that's how I know." Reni replied."No.... This isn't how it should end, I was supposed to win." Azazel said. A great wind started which took Azazel away and the fog and shadows cleared. The cell holding Killian disappeared and he was free. Reni dropped to his knees, blood pouring out of his eyes, nose, mouth and pores in his skin. Dreya and Killian rushed to him."Reni, what did you do?" Killian asked."I saved you, you are free" Reni struggled to say through the blood in his mouth."We need to go back and help you." Dreya told Reni."It's too late, you can't do anythi
"Good, If you fully agree, then let's head over to his palace" the leader told Feyre.The council, along with Feyre and the others with the help of the witches, went to the king's palace.The king was surprised to see them, especially the council."What brings the council here? Is there a problem?" he asked the council. Then he looked at Feyre."What did you do now?" he asked."I think you should be asking yourself that question" she replied."And what do you mean by that statement? Is that how you address your father now?" he asked her furiously."You are no father of mine" she told him."We are here to take you into custody and put you on trial for the allegations leveled against you by your daughter" the leader of the council."What allegations? This brat is just lying because she wants to be queen" the king replied as he glared furiously at Feyre."The allegations are; consorting with a demon, locking a child up and abusing him, going against the natural order of the world by brin
"OK, I will be nice to her" Ricciardo agreed with Jax.Jax drew him closer and kissed him."That's my lovely mate" he said fondly.Ricciardo smirked and unbuttoned his shirt."Well, your lovely mate would like to show you just how lovely he is" he whispered to Jax."Really, huh? Then show me." Jax whispered back.Ricciardo pushed him gently to the bed and climbed on him.And he spent the night showing Jax just how lovely he was.THE NEXT MORNINGLily was brushing her hair in front of the mirror. Constanza had already gone down for breakfast after failing to convince Lily to join her.There was a knock on the door, Lily thought it was probably Jax."Come in" she said.She was shocked to see Ricciardo coming in with a tray."Good morning" he told her."Good morning" she said in a confused voice."I brought you breakfast" he told her."Thanks, I apologise for inconveniencing you" she replied while looking down and fidgeting with her fingers."Oh, it's okay. You didn't inconvenience me. J
"That old monster" Dustin seethed."he will definitely pay for everything he did" Ava assured Killian."he will, can you say this in the trial incase they need you to testify against him?" Dustin asked Killian."I can" Killian replied.Ava squeezed his hand affectionately. "Don't worry, we will be there to support you" she assured him.Dustin stood up. "I have an idea""what is it?" Ava asked."Killian, have you shifted since the unbinding?" Dustin asked his son."No" Killian answered."Then I know what we can do, we will go out, shift and run around the yards. Ava can chase us with our vampire skills""You are a vampire?" Killian asked Ava, Reni must have left this part of the story out."Yes, I got the vampire side from mom. You got the werewolf side from dad" she replied.Killian fidgeted with his fingers. "What if I am still the wolf of shadows?" he asked."Then you are the wolf of shadows. It's not a big deal, we still love you regardless" Dustin told his as he ruffled his hair a
"I am afraid that's true Lily, maybe you need to face your past. I think you should talk to Dean and Trina, really explain yourself to them. Apologize sincerely" Constanza advised Lily."Thanks Lily" Lily appreciated Constanza for her advice."You are welcome. I really can't wait for everything to be over. So I and Killian can figure out what we want to do with our lives" Constanza said wistfully.Lily patted her hand sympathetically. "Don't worry, everything will be okay soon. If there is one thing I am sure about Ava. It's that she is completely determined" she comforted Constanza.SALVATOREAva, Killian and Dustin were together in one of the rooms."Can you tell us about our mother?" Killian asked Dustin.Dustin smiled as he thought about Freya."Of course. Her name was Freya, she was very beautiful. She wasn't kind or warm at all. She was even more vicious than Feyre" Dustin chuckled fondly as he thought of the past."Why then did you fall for her? Even when you had a mate?" Ava a
Lily thought about what they said. 'They were right, she needed to get used to staying at Creekwood. How would she be comfortable with leaving her son in Creekwood if she didn't feel safe there."Fine, I will go with Constanza to Creekwood". She told Ryder."that's a good idea because we will all be busy securing the pack and you will be much more safer in Creekwood. The king wouldn't look for you guys there." Ryder told her.And so it was settled, Lily and Constanza would go to Creekwood.Evena, Dreya, Ava, Dustin, Killian and Dante went to Salvatore.SALVATOREQueen Feyre was in her throne room when they appeared."Oh! The whole gang is here." she said when she saw them."Your highness" Evena and Dreya said with a slight bow.Feyre stood up from her throne and walked to Killian. She cradled his face in her hands. "I am so sorry, my dear child, I had no idea that you were suffering under my father or that you survived. I would have rescued you long ago, if I had known. Please find it
After the burial, they all went to Fireblood pack.Ava was happy that they were back, she hugged Killian for a long time, both siblings relaxed in each other's arms, feeling fulfilled.Then they sat down in the living room to discuss the way forward. "so you mean to tell me that the demons were just setting a trap so they could come back to this world?" Ava asked."Yes, that's what happened, he would have taken over Killian's body and tried to release the banishment" Dreya replied."The vampires of the past must have banished them for a reason" Ryder said thoughtfully."It might have been because of their power. Azazel wasn't even using his full strength and we couldn't stop him, what if he was at his full strength. Can you imagine, such powerful creatures roaming about. They would be gods" Dreya told Ryder."And Azazel called himself a god" Killian reminded Dreya."How then did Reni manage to send him back?" Ava asked."Reni did a blood sacrifice, he exchanged his life for Killian's.
THE KINGDOM OF HADES (THE DEMON KINGDOM)Reni opened his eyes, he was in a raging bed of fire. The strange thing was he didn't feel hot."where am I? Is this heaven?" he asked aloud.He heard someone laughing, he looked up to see Azazel sitting close to him on a throne made of fire."Welcome to hell" Azazel said.STARLIGHT COVENKillian was in bed with Constanza, the both of them were snuggled up under his blanket."I can't believe Reni is dead, and he died just to save me" Killian said."He must have really cared for you" Constanza said, still in shock about Reni's death."This is all my grandfather's fault, if he hadn't done that deal, Reni wouldn't be dead now" Killian said furious."But then you wouldn't be alive" Constanza reminded him."And he is so dumb that he didn't realize that he was playing into a well laid trap by the demons""Killian, I have a confession to make." Constanza said tentatively."What is it?" he asked her."When we were in Fireblood, I told Ava about you. I
He looked at Azazel, determination shone in his eyes.Azazel smirked, "What are you going to do little witch?"Reni looked him dead in the eyes and he said, "Old gods, I offer myself as a blood sacrifice, send Azazel back to hell and free Killian of his clutches."Azazel dropped Dreya and looked at Reni in horror. "What have you done? How do you know about that?" he asked."Like you said, I am brilliant. I read a lot, that's how I know." Reni replied."No.... This isn't how it should end, I was supposed to win."
