Chapter 115.*.*Hazel gazed at the door as if she could still see Kira in the room. She twitched her lips and sighed, then looked down at the table she was resting her hands."I have warned her." She mumbled under her breath."Anything that happens to her is on her and not on me" she shrugged and turned to look at the bunnies as her gaze rested on the one she had fed the love potion. She was too scared to pick it up because she didn't know what it would do to her next time.She waved off the thought and concentrated on the task she has ahead of her, which was to destroy the scroll.She knew getting Nora's blood would be a lot easy. But the issue was Azura and if she was not careful enough, Azura was going to suspect something is wrong."I'll have to deal with her first" she breathed down and walked to the cage. She released the latch and carefully picked one of the bunnies she did not feed with the love potion, she was careful enough not to get close to the one that had bitten her as
Chapter 116.*.*Max walked toward his room, and down the hallway as his head spun. He didn't understand the headache he felt. But he suspected all he needed was a little drop of wine and a good rest and he would be okay.He was almost in his room when he sighted Cole and Cohen walking down the hallway. He paused and observed as Cole walked from afar and he grinned. He was sure his ankle was better because he was now walking properly.Max suddenly forget about the pain he was feeling in his head and began walking toward Cole and Cohen, they were midway to the hallway before they noticed he was walking in their direction.They stopped a few inches apart from each other as he bowed before Cole, paying his respect and Cole acknowledged him."I haven't seen Lucas around lately" he said, looking from Cole to Cohen."Yes. He is busy with the incoming full moon" Cole responded, wondering why Max was suddenly interested in Lucas.They watched as Max scratched his hair savagely. Cole exchanged
Chapter 117.*.*Hazel pretended not to have noticed what had happened and just stared at her to see what she would do.She watched Nora crease her brows as blood streamed down her dumb. Sighing deeply and looking at the needle which she had tossed aside on her lap, she was about to put her thumb in her mouth to suck it when Hazel sprang up."Nora no!!" Nora looked at her and frowned the more while Hazel watched as the drops of blood dropped on the floor, then she swallowed hard."What?" Nora questioned, still staring at her with creased brows."Don't tell me you wanted to suck on your bloody thumb!"."That's what I always do when I prick a finger. Stop being overly dramatic" Nora rolled her eyes."Well, I can tell you that it is really wrong and you should stop that. Believe me or not, I will not allow you to do that to yourself!" Hazel barked, being serious and Nora scoffed."What is wrong with you, Hazel?" She looked at the thumb and saw it has stopped bleeding and the blood at th
Chapter 118.*.*Cora looked elsewhere as the duo hugged. She said nothing when she began hearing them speak."I am so sorry for ignoring you that way in the hallway. I had to put up a show because of Azura and__""Hey! Hey hey hey" Cole spoke and released her from the hug and held on to her face just like he had held Cora's."The look on your face broke me and I felt I should just__""Sh... Sh... Please" Cole said, looking seductively into her eyes as she licked her lips and looked up at him, getting entranced in those alluring eyes."I understand, Hazel. That's the sacrifices we have to make and you don't have to apologize for anything" he assured her and kissed her forehead before pulling her into a hug again.She tightened her grip around his back and sniffed, trying to wade off the tears that were threatening to drop as she was so emotional.Raising her gaze while still hugging Cole, she looked up at Cora and caught her staring at them and immediately their gaze locked, Cora smil
Chapter 119.*.*Max stood opposite the mirror as the servants dressed him up in armor, preparing for the duel. He kept on scratching his hair at regular intervals which stopped the servants from fixing the helmet on him.He frowned when he looked at the mirror and his gaze rested on Kira who was walking right in his direction."Leave" he said to the servants who took a bow and left immediately while he turned to face Kira who was watching the servants leave.She instantly knew he had sent them away the moment he saw her, the thought of him made her blush and grin like a love-struck teenager."Hi" she said, squeezing her fingers but he said nothing and just stared back at her, his face deadpan.When he didn't respond, she swallowed and brushed the strand of hair that had fallen at the side of her face behind her ears and bit her lower lips."I wanted to wish you good luck before you go out for the duel" she started walking toward him slowly. He said nothing and began scratching his h
Chapter 120*.*Sounds of music were heard, emitting from the hall while Azura and other ranked members of the Pack approached the hall. She kept rubbing the wrist that the bunny had bit her.Nora on the other hand was walking in the direction of the hall while strolling beside Hazel who appeared pale."You know I have been wondering..." Nora tried to strike up a conversation but Hazel was not paying attention to her."After I bled on the floor when my finger got pricked by the needle, I couldn't find the drops of blood on the floor" she added as Hazel came to a standstill, looking at a path that led elsewhere"You go on, I will catch up with you in the hall" Hazel spoke and turned in the direction she was staring at and began walking down."Was she even listening to me?" Nora grunted, shaking her head as she resumed walking toward the hall.Hazel continued walking in the direction as the sobbing sound she had heard faintly increased. The path she was heading to was dark and the woode
Chapter 121*.*Cora let out the breath she has been holding and watched them in the ring. She had lost track of the one that she marked to be Max and was looking for ways to detect it again.She observed that one was moving effortlessly with the armor, while it was difficult for the other and she was instantly able to tell which of them was Cole.The drums of war stopped beating and were replaced by a fast sound made from the xylophone and there were shouts of cries from the fighters as they attacked each other with their clubs, while Cora had her heart in her mouth.One of the fighters used his kit skillfully while the other fumbled with his. Max used his sword and landed it on Cole's head and he went on his knees instantly, then he kicked him on the chest, sending him flying to the other side of the ring with his club and shield flying out of his reach.Max grinned and turned to look at the spectator, raising his sword and shield above his head as the crowd cheered and clapped on h
Chapter 122.*.*Hazel walked to the spacey lab and opened the door in a hurry. She stepped into the dark hall without closing the door after her. The hall was pitch dark and she could scarcely see where the wooden fire torches or lamps were situated in the hall.She closed her eyes, opened her palms, and murmured some words under her breath. The lamps in the room were all lit up, illuminating the hall as she swiftly looked around. Owen was not in his usual spot in the lab as he was also in the hall where the entertainment was being carried out. Without further ado, she walked straight to her lab room and opened the door.She stepped into the room without bothering to lock or close the door after her. The room was also as dark as the bigger hall and she had to murmur some magical words and the lamps in the room were lit up.Stepping with long fast strides, she moved to the shelves and started rampaging for the right herbs she needed to mix. She gathered some recipes and tossed them i
