There was a flash of light and Hao appeared."Mia."Hao came close to me. I was unable to speak a single word. He grabbed my hand and started to feel my pulse."You are in great danger. Don't worry I will do something. Now close your eyes and try to connect."I closed my eyes and then Hao performed magic to connect our souls. Hao transferred a part of his spiritual power to me. After a while, I felt a bit comfortable."Mia, you should be grateful to me. You see I almost died for saving you", Hao said while laying next to me.I looked at him and stroked his head. He felt comfortable. I smiled at his sight, "Don't worry I will remember it and give you a lot of chocolates."He happily looked at me, "Great, my hard work was worth it. Mia don't be hard on yourself.""What do you mean?", I asked him confused by his words. "You know better than me what my words mean. Ask Lin to give you the golden blood. After all, you gave him the Pearl for his protection", Hao said."Enough. Don't let any
I wish I could always stay beside those who need me or who care about me.Later, Lin and Liam came. We were all in the Arena and we were about to start the training. I looked at both of the men who were still standing at a distance from each other."If you both remember, yesterday I told you guys that you both will be introducing yourselves to each other like gentlemen", I reminded them.Lin looked at me and step forward, "Hi, my name is Lin Yang. I belong to the Magical White Wolves and I am the subordinate of Her Highness."Liam nodded, "Hi, I am Liam Martin. I belong to the Magical Dragons and I am Her Highness's mate. It was nice to meet you."They both shake hands. Lin stared at Liam, "If you ever tried to harm Her Highness, I will chop you into pieces."Liam chuckled, "Same goes for you. Anyways I am looking forward to your cooperation."Lin nodded, "Me too."The atmosphere was tense with both the beasts glaring at each other. I had no other choice but to break the silence."Now
Hao pushed on my back, "Can't you see she is looking towards you?"I looked at him, "Of course, I can see."Hao looked frustrated, "If you can see then why don't you go to her? She is looking toward you because she wants to go to her. Now hurry up."I looked at her again. She was still staring at me. I walked towards her and soon reached her.She looked at me and then at Liam, "You both should start your training. Both of you work on your weak points. I will be taking a training test from both of you so, that I could know the improvement that you further need or how much you both had improved. For that, I will fight with both of you according to the level of your power. Each time I will be increasing my power of fighting."Both of us nodded."As you wish Master", I said to her.Liam bowed to Mia, "As you wish Your Highness.""One more thing, I want to remind you that you must complete your training this week. Starting next week you both will be fighting beside me. So, you should hurry
"What happened? Are you alright?", I asked the White Wolf Leader who was covered in blood.There was a terrified look on all of their faces. The White Wolf Leader didn't answer.The Phoenix Leader stood up, "Your Highness, it's a great emergency. There is someone who is killing the Beasts. The Wolf Leader's son was also killed. It's his blood on his body and there are a few Beasts who wanted to meet you. They were captured by the familiar.""Killing the Beasts but who could do that?", I asked them.The White Wolf Leader stood up. There were tears in his eyes, "Your Highness, please bring justice. The one who killed my son was quite powerful. I fought with him but was easily defeated by him." I was shocked by his words, "Powerful than you. Is that even possible? You are the strongest among the Magical Beast Leaders. When did all this happen?""It was last night. Almost after midnight but I wasn't able to inform you immediately because that person froze me with the wind magic. The mome
I looked at Hao, "Hao take them to the healing tree. They are all injured they need to recover."Hao nodded.I looked towards the three people who were sunk in sorrow, "I promise you all that I will make the killer pay for what he had done. As for now, you all should go with Hao. He will take you to the healing tree so, that your wounds could heal. In the meanwhile, I had to discuss something important with the leaders."The young boy stood up, "Your Highness, I don't care about these wounds. I only want to fight beside you."I sighed helplessly, "But if you are injured you won't be able to fight and I might also be defeated because of you getting more injured. If you want to do something then first recover."There was a smile on his face, "So, it means you would let me become a guard."I nodded, "After your wounds are healed, I will see your strength and let you get trained."He looked happy. There was a determined look in his eyes. The three of them went away with Hao. I walked tow
I stared at him speechlessly. How can I leave a person who I cherish a lot in danger? How can I let such a person suffer?I looked into his emotionless eyes, "You know the answer.""I don't know that's why I am asking you", he said.He doesn't know. Huh..." Maybe", I said.He laughed, "So you are not sure about that." He grabbed my hands, "Mia but I am sure about what I will do. That's why no matter how hard you push me away I will still help you."For a while there was silence. Our eyes were locked with each other. Lin smiled, "Mia everyone needs help. Everyone needs someone's assistance and help. Even the Legendary Princess Chi needs help and assistance." With those words, he got up from his place and left. I felt empty when he left. I felt really bad."I am sorry Lin but I can't help but doubt you because you are the beast who is more powerful than the leaders besides Liam. You both are my suspects now. I am sorry Lin, I didn't mean to say those words. I will always protect eve
Lin rushed into his room slamming the door close behind himself. He took off his coat and threw it on the bed in anger. He went to stand close to the window.Lin greeted his teeth in anger and clenched his fists."How could she hide it from me? She told him but why not me?", He shouted in rage and picked the glass from the nearby table and threw it to the ground.A few hours ago, on the Magical Island Liam came to Lin who was standing at a distance from the healing tree and observing the injured ones."It's a pity that you are only in name the most trusted person of Her Highness", Liam said being proud.Lin looked at him, "What do you mean?"Liam sneered, "Go and ask Her Highness what is she going to do regarding the situation? Anyways she won't tell you because I think she doesn't trust you enough."Lin glared at him, "Who are you to say that? She trusts me the most. If you are behaving like this then why don't you tell me what she is hiding from me?"He nodded, "Sure. She had planne
It seems that she had found out about my presence. I stepped out from behind the entrance and walked toward her.I bowed to her the moment I reached her, "Your Highness."The boy next to her kept staring at me. His presence was already annoying me and now his gaze. I then realized that the thing that annoyed me the most about him was that he was a Dragon because Liam was also one of them. It was all because of him.Mia glared at me, "What were you doing there?"I scratched my head, "I was just coming in and saw someone new here so I just stopped to see who it was?"She smiled, "Do you think I will believe you?"I stared at her wordlessly, "Ummm... Don't know."The boy looked at Mia, "Your Highness if this person is bothering then let me punish him."Huh... Punish me. I glared at him. Mia laughed, "No need. You are not strong enough to fight him."The boy looked at me, "Let me try, as long as it is someone causing trouble for you. I will crush such people.""Are you asking for death by
"Lin, after finding out about my condition did you give me your blood?", I asked him.But he remained silent.I went towards the door with all my anger filled inside me.Lin came behind me and grabbed my hand, "Mia, where are you going?""It is none of your business. Let go of my hand", I told him without turning back.He came and stood in front of me, "Mi Mi, I can't let you go until you recover.""Why did you give me your blood when I had already told you not to?", I screamed out those words without thinking.Lin grabbed both of my hands, "I am sorry Mi but I would never leave you dying until and unless I am not dead myself. Whenever you are in danger I won't step back. I won't listen to you while protecting you. This time it was just a few drops of blood but if one day it is my whole life, even then I won't hesitate or step back." I felt him step closer to me and then he stopped when a few inches of distance were left,"Mi, I had lost you once but I can't afford to lose you again.
I withdrew from the hug and looked at his shocked face. There was moisture appearing in his eyes. This time he hugged me.I was breathless because of the sudden hug. He hugged me tightly but didn't say a word. I waited for him to talk. After a while, I felt his hot tears on my shoulder. I don't know why but I wanted to calm him. Without another thought, I touched his head.With my other hand I began to tap his back, "Li Li, don't cry, please. I think I shouldn't have told you about my memory coming back. It had made you sad."He sniffed and then withdrew from the hug, "Mi Mi, you don't know how long I had waited for this moment. It is not that I am sad. It's just that I am too happy and tired. I am tired of waiting and hiding my emotions all this time."I couldn't help but wiped out his tears, "I am sorry."Lin looked at me and grabbed my hands, "Mia, after Mom's death I wanted to die. It was you who brought hope to my life. Those five years with you were like five centuries. Althoug
Mia's POVI found myself in a familiar environment. I thought that I might be inside the stone realm and looked around but then realized that it was the dream that had haunted me for years.This time everything seemed different because stead of my childhood self, I the older me is inside this dream.I began to walk in the green field. Suddenly, it began to rain heavily. I went to a nearby tree to take shelter."*sob* Mom*sob*", I heard someone sobbing.I went to look around and then saw a boy sitting beneath a nearby tree. His face was hidden in his arms but I felt familiar with him. I stepped towards him.Then a girl appeared. "Huh... That's me..." That was the younger me, I saw in my previous dreams. She went close to him and sat close to him.The younger me calmed him down and put a bandage on his wound. The boy soon stopped crying. They both introduced themselves to each other.The boy told me his name was Li while the younger me told her name was Mi."Wait a second, isn't it wha
I sighed in relief and turned around to the bookshelf, "I must be fast."I approached the books and began to read the text on them."Let me help you a bit", the bird told me and then flew close to the books. "Among these books, there is a book named Heart of Crystals. Find that book, it will guide you."" Thanks for telling me that but it would be great if you had told me about how to solve these puzzles", I told it and continued solving the puzzle."Humph... Ungrateful. You should be thankful that I told you the name. Now I won't help you anymore", it flew to the table near the bookshelf.I think I had angered it.I scratched my head in confusion, "What is this? I can't understand it at all?"I touched one of the books and began to focus on it. There was a mixture of scripts written there. It was like, 1325 Huã For Xiūxi."Wait a second...", an idea clicked in my mind."If we take the name in English then 1 is for A, 3 for C, 2 for B, and 5 for E. Then it becomes ACBE but it is not a
Mia got up from the ground with blood flowing out of the wound on her forehead and rushed toward the spirits. One after another she killed many of them."Mia, don't push yourself hard. Stop it", Hao who was inside the shield protecting the stone shouted.She ignored him and kept fighting. The spirits were still in a great amount. A giant spirit came and hit her. She fell to the ground and threw up blood."Ahhh... ", she was in pain.All the spirits rushed towards her and she was covered by them. She tried her best to escape them but was heavily injured.She growled in anger and pain, "Now, you left no other choice."Rays of light came out from the group of spirits that had surrounded Mia and they all fell apart. There was a huge beam of light and when the light disappeared Mia was in the air. Wearing Red armor, her hair was tied up in a ponytail and different elements were flowing around her."Miaaaa... Why must you harm yourself...", Hao screamed.The spirits slowly got up and were a
I stared at her in surprise, "Then do you mean I am the real one?"There was a sad expression on her face, "Hmmm, you are the one. Because of me, the situation had become worse and now I don't want to repeat the same mistake. Yes, it is you, Mia's true mate and the one who will aid her to end her curse."Happiness rushed inside me at her words. When I looked at mom something was bothering me. She smiled at me but there was sadness in her smile.I grabbed her hands, "Mom, why do I feel that you are sad at the fact of me being her mate?"She looked at me with fear in her eyes that I could not understand, "I am not sad because you are her mate. I am just regretting the decision that I made.""Mom, what decision?", I asked her confused."Lin, If I hadn't hidden your mark years ago then the situation would be much better. Just because of that selfish decision of mine not only you but little Mia is suffering a lot. Even though I am guiding her but still I can't help her to live happily", te
Lin's POVI don't know why but something is wrong with Mia. My whole body was trembling. My face was covered in sweat and tears flowed down my eyes."Ugh...", I grabbed my chest.There was a sharp pain in my heart and then a sharp pain started in my neck as well. A strong flash of light came out from the left side of my neck, "Ahhh...."I opened my eyes and found myself in a strange place. I was laying beside a lake. I got up from the ground and looked around but there was no one. There was a familiar tree near the lake."The healing tree ...", I remembered.I went close to it and touched it."Not only this tree but the whole place is a healing place", a familiar voice came.I turned around to see the speaker. I freeze at the sight of the person.I took a step forward, "M...mo...m..."I ran and hugged her, "Mom, where were you? Why did you leave me like this?"She hugged me back tightly, "My dear Li Li. How have you been?""*sob*How could be a motherless child?", I was unable to stop
Ask your heart", he glanced at me.I got up from the chair angrily, "Grandpa Wen, please tell me. Don't put me in further confusion."He looked at Mia, "She is awake."I glanced at Mia. She seemed to be waking up. I went to her."Mia", I grabbed her hand.Mia moved her head a little and then slowly opened her eyes," Umm...*cough*"Grandpa Wen brought water, "Here give it to her."I helped her to sit. After drinking water, she looked around and a strange laugh escaped her.She stared at her hands, "Fate is really cruel.""Mia, what do you mean? Aren't you happy that you are fine?", I asked her with curiosity.She lift her head to look at me since she was resting her back on my chest. Our eyes met. There was very little distance between our faces. I could feel her breath. My heart stopped beating at the sight of those beautiful chocolate eyes. I forgot to breathe. "*cough*", Grandpa Wen's cough brought me back to my senses.Mia was still staring into my eyes. She smiled, "I thought I w
"Chirp....chirp...", I opened my eyes and found myself in the backyard of Mia's house. There was a peaceful environment. The birds were chirping around. Grandpa Wen was standing next to me."How dare you?", there was a scream from a woman. I looked at Grandpa Wen, "Who's voice is that?"He looked at me, "Stay quiet and wait."I stood there silently looking at the door that most probably led to the kitchen."Mom, I am sorry...ahh...ahh", there was a little girl's cry.Then a woman appeared holding the arm of a little girl who was crying. That girl..."Mia...", the name escaped my mouth. Grandpa Wen smiled, "I knew you would recognize her. Don't try to go to her because it is just a glimpse of the past and you can't do anything nor can she see you.""*sob* mom, I... I am....s...s...orrrr...y", she kept on crying and sobbing but that woman ignored and dragged her.She dragged her to a tree where the sun was bright and it was a hot place considering the weather of summer. A big metal s
