Alec's POV"Where is she?!" I roared at them. It was such a fucking easy job what I asked them to do. To take care of her and not let her out of their fucking sight!I rummaged her room, and looked at the other rooms hoping that it was all a joke but it wasn't. "Who's idea was it to leave her alone? Who?!" The three of them looked at each other."It was me." Derek admitted and I fucking threw a punch at him, and he didn't block or dodged it."Ahhh!!" I shouted, destroying everything thing that I see on the way."Leave! All of you get out!" I shouted and they scurried away.We were in the middle of finding the enemies hide out but for some reason, every leads we have of them turns out to be wrong. We grew suspicious but we had to keep going or else we will be on the disadvantage.When I heard that Skye left I almost lost my mind, it felt like I couldn't breath. If she's gone, then who else am I here living for. My parents are on their death bed, and my mate is gone. ...Two days has
Skye's POVIt took me and Argus some time to persuade everyone about our plan. When we told them that morning, they were very skeptical about our plan since it's very unusual. I mean, we were just bickering not too long ago and now we were planning on spending some days together. Thankfully Lady Orella persuaded our sovereign to let us be and do what we want. And now I was back here, however, Argus had to tag along since he was curious what mundane world looked like. ..."What is it?" Alec asked, he closed the door behind him and made sure to lock the knob. "I haven't been completely honest with you. You do know that I'm a phoenix correct?" I asked, and he nodded."Yes, but what about it? What's going on Skye?" He asked, his voice demanding to get answers from me. "My kind does not dwell on this realm, we come from Hephalis Alec, a place that no man can reach. My parents and our Lord is against our relationship. That's why I was gone for two days, thankfully, Argus helped me lea
Skye's POV"Where are we going?" I asked Alec, he said earlier that we should meet outside in an hour and I have no clue where we were going."We'll go to the fort. I'm taking you with me." He said, and I feel like my ears were ringing at what he said. H-he's taking me with him?"Why? You always say that you don't want me to go. What changed your mind?" I asked. And he went behind me and hugged me, kissing my cheeks."I don't want you to be alone. Who knows where you'll wander off this time if I'm gone." He said, and I couldn't help but let out a snicker at what he said, leaning my back to him.I held his hand and rubbed it with my thumbs as I look up to him."Well, I have no complaints." I said."Ok, let's go hurry up or we'll leave you here." I suddenly heard Keira's voice. I pried myself away from Alex to see the three of them nagging at Argus who was carrying loads of stuff in his hands."What is he carrying?" I asked."Some of our stuff. He said he wants to help, and that it's
Skye's POV"If they threaten you in anyway don't hesitate to leave okay?" Alec said, as he clasped our hands together. "I'm right beside you, so you don't have anything to worry about." He added."Alec, I'm not scared. You're being overprotective, calm down, I got this." I said, and he nodded, his eyes piercing as he looked at the people in the forest who were gathered together. "Is this her?" An old lady beside Hilda asked her, and Hilda nodded, avoiding eye contact with me."It's nice to meet you dear. We've heard a lot about you. You posses a very wonderful gift." She said, approaching me, but Alec his me behind him standing on the way."Alec it's okay." I rubbed his arms, he looked at me and apprehensively stepped aside."It's nice to meet all of you." I bowed my head lightly as a sign of respect."Is it true you know healing magic? Let's see it." An old man demandingly said. "Hush Cristopher!" The old lady said. "Hello dear, my name is Irina," she introduced herself, "The old m
Skye's POV"Lower your voice, no one needs to hear this!" I gritted my teeth. I paced back and forth, contemplating on what he said. "Then what does this mean? If they already know who I am and what I am, then, why are they still asking me for my help?" I asked him, and he just threw his hands in the air, not knowing what to say. "Perhaps it's time for us to go back. This was a mistake from the beginning, and I was foolish enough to come here with you." He said, and I paused, looking at him as if he was crazy."What are you saying? I'm not going back with you. How many times do I have to say this to you to make you understand that I will stay here with my mate. A war is raging and I feel that it's not only werewolves who are involved in this. If this gets out of hand, who knows this might be the start of a new era of peril and destruction?" I said to him, huffing, turning my heels and walking away."Skye! Wait Skye..." He called, catching up to me. "What?!" I stopped and spun my hea
Skye's POV"Aghhhh!!!""Charge!!" Different voices, yells and noise. I could hear all of them, but I couldn't see anything. I don't know what was happening. All of a sudden, a bright little ball of light appeared in front of me, moving fast, and I know for sure I was running to it, but then suddenly not far, was the back of a person I know so well."Alec..." I whispered his name. He slowly spun his body to me and when I saw his face, it was smiling, but not the smile that could make my heart flutter, it was a different kind of smile. An ominous one.I slowly stepped forward, but then he held his hand up, signalling me to stop. He was opening and closing his mouth, as if wanting to say something but almost no noise came out, except one."Skye..." He uttered my name almost inaudibly, looking at me with loving eyes before blood pooled in his chest, coating the white shirt he was wearing with red. "Alec!!!" I shouted, running to him. But he was slipping away from me. His figure slowly d
I stood still, staring at the darkness in front of me. I needed time and space to think, which was why I was here alone in the forest, not far from the camp. After that guy's outburst earlier, it got me thinking. What if Alec really wouldn't make it, no... to be more precise, what if we couldn't make it out of this war alive? What if we lose each other forever?"Hey, what are you doing here alone?" A deep voice suddenly interrupted my train of thoughts. I spun around and saw that it was Alec. He had on a worried face and I could sense that he felt down as well after what happened earlier. "I just needed to think, and what better place than here?" I replied, smiling at him as he approached me. "You know it's dangerous out here in the dark," He said with a firm voice, but the gentleness behind them are still evident. He slowly wrapped his arms around me as he engulfed me in a tight hug. His earthy wooden scent was all it took to calm my chaotic thoughts. I was afraid, I admit, but
"They are making a move,""How do you know?" Alec asked, looking at the older woman intently."I can sense it, they're strength is getting stronger and their number is growing," Gretchen said, closing his eyes, breathing heavily."So the war is looming?" Irina asked."I believe so," "Tell everyone to be ready, when the moon turns red, all blood will be shed to the ground, there is no escaping the rules of life and death," She muttered, slowly opening her eyes, and for a second they were white, but the next, it turned to their normal grey lifeless orbs.Alec told me that she can foresee the future, is this what he meant by that?"Alec," I muttered, my heart beat racing faster than it ever was before."Don't worry baby, everything will be alright," he said, embracing me in a tight hug."Everyone get ready! All of you return to your assigned areas and guard it well, when the sun sets at six we will...""At the rock mountains,""What are you saying Gretchen?" Christopher asked on the sid
