The crowd flinches , seeing the metal studded whip hit the werewolf King. The impact enough to tear his skin, drawing out blood. He doesn't protest nor does he plead.Staring into those pitch black eyes, he accepted his punishment from her hands. Even though she was not consciously doing this, he knew he deserved it and much more than that.He lost count, seconds turn into minutes. And soon he got oblivious to all the pains.When he came here today, he knew he may die. And he was prepared for it.But, before dying. He knew he has to do one thing. He has to save her.At all costs.The whipping sound seizes as Celeste stops Elora. Stepping forward she stares at the barely conscious Alpha King. His shirt was red with blood, not even an inch of chest was left without whip marks. And blood was flowing like a stream. Pooling near his feet.Having lost too much blood. He could barely stay conscious. And Celeste smirks seeing this.Opening the chains blinding him. She sees his body fall dow
Elora/ Mia's povI have always thought sitting in those dark dungeons that good never wins over evil. If that was true, then I wouldn't be in the dungeons in the first place.I wouldn't have a demon living inside me.I wouldn't have killed innocents.I never thought I was good. I knew I was evil. I knew what I did was what a villain would do and not a super hero. I knew I deserved the pain and suffering in the dungeon.I knew I deserved his hatred.But what I never realised was that what meets the eye is never the truth. I always thought my demon was evil but then that day my demon helped me escape from Noah and lie to him.I knew it was not the demon. But the witches who controlled him and made him evil.I realised that while these witches portrayed me to be the bad one...it was not me. It was them.Staring at Noah's barely conscious body in my arms. I see life leaving his body with every passing second. But the worst part, I couldn't do anything to save him.If I be honest here, I
1 year Later Human Lands 12:43 pm Elora's Pov" Gosh the man is so hot! Can I have him please?'Ren sighs, making a cappuccino in the coffee machine and I just roll my eyes at her comment. Busy cleaning the shelf.Almost over with my shift.After this I will go to the nearby park. Enjoy my time in silence. Then head back to my room and cook myself dinner.Wasn't this the perfect life? I mean without the violence and threats. Just work, earn what these people call dollars and spend it on clothes and food.With a roof over my head and no calls day and night.I was enjoying my freedom and peace untill...." Seriously girl any other girl would die for him. That subtle beard, perfect cut jawline and grey smoldering eyes. Gosh...am I going overboard again?"" You are."I say as a matter of fact. Picking up my bag when she stops me." Where are you going? The boss is going to eat my head if that man complains again!"" He only wants you to serve him El. Go to him."I give her my puppy eyes
The night of the tragedyRoyal grounds12:43 amChaos was all that one could see as far as one’s vision could take them. Thousands or countrymen have gathered outside the Royal door, banging on the doors. Asking for the culprit to be brought forward.With some mourning for the murder of the greatest king and Queen known in history while others burning in the fire of vindication.“ We want justice!”“ We want the murderer!”The very words they were repeating. Banging on the doors. Pushing on the great arch wooden door to break it off its hinges.Entering to fill the dreaded place with screams and protests.A figure steps forward, with eyes dead and head lowered. His mouth opening and closing ,not knowing how to announce this.“ Settle down my countrymen. I...I bring along a bad news.”Gasps echo with the men putting down their swords. Looking at the second in command to their Queen, Beta Charlie standing there. Their hearts thudding , as they await the most dreaded moment. Already knowin
18 years later-A scene in the countryside took in everyone's attention. As a group of royal officers circled an old lady and her young daughter.. Staring at the women pleading at their feet without any emotion." ahh please! forgive us! we will pay you the taxes- ahhhh"The old lady couldn't complete as a whip strikes her back. Making her fall down with a scream." Momma!!"His granddaughter rushed to her. And before the officer could swing the whip again. She covers her grandmother's back with hers. Protecting her.Making the guard to stop. Looking at the you g girl in boredom." Move aside little girl. Don't you know what happens to those who don't pay taxes?"" They are locked in dungeons! Consider yourself lucky that I am settling the dues with just few whips. "The little girl of barely 16 turns around. Tears streaming down her blue eyes. Holding onto the officers leg, she literally pleads." Pl- lease my grandma is sick...she couldn't work this month. Give us time.... please...
" Your Highness...we...we weren't informed prior of your return."One of the servants speaks. While taking Noah's short.Bowing and Noah just sighs. Sitting on the mattress of his bed. Leaning back on his palms resting on the bed." Well now that you know. Prepare something delicious. I am starving."" Of course your Highness. I will just inform the cooks to prepare your favourite."With this the man turns around to leave, when Noah's voice stops him." Listen "" Yes your Highness."" It's been more than an hour since I came. Why isn't Uncle Charlie here?"" I am afraid, your Highness. Sir is busy with some urgent matter. He will be here as soon as he can."" Fine. Go."Noah dismisses the person. Running his fingers through his hair to lay back on his bed. 18 years. This place feels more foreign than home. But then he just had to close his eyes and the memories come flashing in." Slow down Noah! You will get hurt!"" Come catch me momma!!"His 7 year old self giggles and his voice ec
Charlie walks down the stairs to the underground dungeon. Feeling a shiver run down his spine as the temperature of the place drops drastically. The security guards bow at him and he barely acknowledges them. Making way to the only cell in this special dungeon.Stopping outside the heavy metal door he takes in a deep breath. To find it slightly open. Was someone there already?His question is answered as he looks at the back of two doctors. To sigh. It's the time of the medicine. He guessed.Stepping in. He finds the two doctors getting up immediately. Acknowledging him.' Beta Charlie! Greetings!"Charlie just nods. His eyes finally take in the woman who was crumbled to a ball behind the doctor's. Her white rugged clothes ,the only thing visible in the dark." How is she doing?"Charlie asks and the doctor starts explaining. While taking out a syringe and filling it with a liquid." She is stable Sir. We were just going to give her the days dose. If you don't mind can I..."" Go ahea
Noah's povThe girls body was shuddering in my arms. Her chest was heaving up and down and my hand was still placed on her lips. Silencing her.Her thrashing legs have seized now. Her neck submitted to a side as my canines finished their claim on her.No struggle from her side made it much easier. The girl was nothing but a lifeless doll now. There 18 years in the dungeon have already killed a part of her soul. I could see it quite clearly but if you ask I feel regret for treating her like this?The truth will be that no. I don't feel bad. Because she deserved all this and she knew this better herself. Retreating I see blood trail down her neck to reach her chest. My eyes take in my fresh mark on her neck. And I feel content.Well at least the first part was done. Now no one will question her position in the council.Removing my palms from her lips, I feel her hot breath hit my palms and I clench my hands. Her body leaning back on me, drained and tired.Getting up. I see her fall dow
