Morales' strike

2024-10-29 19:42:56Back in the Faikan palace, the Emperor is in the throne room. He is anxious about the events which took place while Moira is sitting next to him. She puts a hand on her mate’s arm.
“Calm down,” she tells him. “I am sure that we will find him.”
“Find him?” Phillippe snaps. “What will we do after finding him? Look at this bloody place!”
He points at the ruins. The palace is barely standing and all the faes in the kingdom are working to restore it, but even their powers are not enough to fully repair the castle. They have all seen the destruction that Lavi is capable of and frankly, it scares Phillippe to no end.
The truth is clear to him now. He is sure that the girl he sent to kill Lavi is his mate. Otherwise why

“The former Emperor had gone to Soloma and tracked her down,” Lavi narrates. “My mother used to live in a remote village. She was the most beautiful woman there. Her sparkling blue eyes used to make many people fall for her but she was a priestess in the local temple. She had taken a vow of celibacy because she was hiding a secret.”“What secret?” Anna probes.“She is a direct descendant of the Dragons,” Lavi reveals. “Our ancestors were among the Dragons who stayed faithful to the Moon Goddess. They fought against the treacherous gods but were defeated. Some of them escaped, though, and hid their powers. Over time, they stopped using their powers and blended in with the humans in order to keep their existence a secret. Many Dragons were being hunted for their powers or for their perceived betrayal in the wa

A bright bonfire is burning brightly in the middle of the dark room. Several figures in dark hoods are standing around the fire, waiting for someone to arrive. The whole room has an eeriness to it because a bloodlust is visible among the people standing there. Their eyes are dark, filled with hatred for the world which has wronged them. They are ruthless, their hands smeared with blood of innocent people.A thin girl steps forward, impatient at the delay.“Where is he?” Nine scowls. “We are already late! I need to head for Faika!”“Be patient, Nine,” an elderly man says. He is nicknamed Three and he is one of the oldest members of the guild. His hawk-like eyes are calm and he is the only one who is more tame compared to the others.“I can’t be patient!” Nine snaps at him. “Ace is mated to that Crown Prince and now, she’s on the run after destroying half the castle! Her clan is dead and now we are stuck with hunting her down. It’s not gonna be easy at all!”“Ace is merely suffering the

Lavi and Anna rest in the cave for the whole day. Anna managed to recover from her injuries and the color on her face is also returning. She can walk as well albeit slower than usual. Lavi stood guard at the cave, not sleeping a wink. Anna sometimes wonders why he does not sleep. Is it because of his paranoia? Or something else?“I can stand guard,” she offers. “You should sleep. You did not sleep for days!”“I can sleep at will,” Lavi mutters but his eyes are quite reddish. He is exhausted and even though sleep sounds nice, he knows that he has to hold on until they reach Soloma. Anna, however, is not going to let it go.“Rest!” She scolds him. “No one can stay up this long. Not even you. I can see that you are tired. I promise, I can handle myself.”But Lavi shakes his head. “It will be night time soon and we will be traveling in the dark,” he explains. “I cannot fall asleep now. I can hold on for a day or two but I will not be using my powers for a while. It will only make me even

“AHHHH!” Both of them scream and make a run for it. The worm is at least fifty feet high and very thick. It lets out a high pitched cry which nearly bleeds Lavi and Thena’s ears but they do not stop running. The giant worm slams itself on the ground, missing Lavi by inches. It has a foul stench of rotten eggs and swamp, nearly making Lavi sick. Thena manages to detect him and pulls him out of safety but the worm is slithering behind them at an incredibly fast pace.“Lavi, get on my back!” Thena shouts. “It may be big but I can run faster! Just guide me, okay?”Lavi does not waste time and hops on Thena’s back. “Go right!” he orders. Thena makes a turn to the right, running at incredible speed. Thanks to her hybrid nature, she can run faster than average Lycans and she is using her senses to find her way. The worm is still on their tail, its foul smell filling up their nostrils. Thena tries to ward off the smell and focuses on finding a way out of this mess. “Sandworms cannot move b

Back in Pir, Timur is thinking hard. He heard the disturbing news about how Lady Ariel was allegedly killed by the Crown Prince and his mistress. After the news broke, he heard that Anna had been taken captive but Lavi helped her escape and now they are on the run. “How am I going to find them?” He mutters to himself. Should I inform Emperor Alexei? He attended the Ball on behalf of the Emperor but little did he know that he would run into the long lost Princess! Emperor Alexei was unable to attend the Ball because his mate, Roseanne, has been ill due to her pregnancy. Telling them about this issue will sour the relationship between Ezealyra and Faika. “I will have to tell Leo about this,” he decides. “There is no other way. But first, I need to investigate this issue.” He instantly leaves to visit the now ruined castle. The Emperor and Empress are still living there albeit in makeshift tents. They are overseeing the repair work but it will take them months to build it back to it

“Hic!” Anna lets out an inadvertent hiccup. Lavi pours water in a glass and offers it to her. “Here you go,” he says and puts the glass in her hands. “You can rest. I will stay up all night and-” Anna puts the glass away and gently touches his shoulder. To Lavi’s surprise, she pushes him on the bed and lies beside him. “What the hell are you doing?” He frowns. “This is better,” she murmurs. “You need rest and so do I. It is best if we rest together on this bed.” Lavi can see her face turning red in embarrassment. Anna is suddenly feeling very shy and fidgets a little. The bed is quite small; so small that their bodies are in close proximity. He cannot help but gaze at her affectionately. Unlike her usual fiery self, she is more self aware and shy as if she is also feeling the same as him. Her dark hair is slightly falling on her face and she tries to shake it off. To Anna’s surprise, Lavi’s warm fingers brush her hair away and place them behind her ear. “Are you really okay w

The bright rays of the sun break Lavi’s sleep the next morning and he slowly opens his eyes. Instantly, a welcoming scent of cocoa hits his nostrils and he inhales it deeply, calming his soul. Anna’s sleeping figure appears in front of him and he gazes at her.She is not mumbling in her sleep but rather, her lips are curled into a pretty smile as if she is having a good dream. Her dark hair is slightly brushing her face and she is hugging him tightly, not letting go. Lavi snickers at her possessiveness. In her sleep, she looks like a little child.“You know, you can seduce and mark her now,” Airen tells him. “She seems to be inclined towards you.”“I will not mark her,” Lavi says warily.“Why not? You like her. She likes you. What is the problem?”Lavi sighs. “The prophecy,” he replies. “The prophecy is the problem. She will kill me one day. Ras told me that he can break the mate bond without hurting her. I know that he can do it.”Airen is not pleased by this. He knows about the prop

Timur strolls through the lavish corridor which is illuminated by several silver lights. Unlike the dreary castle of Faika, this one is more lively and bright. The furniture is squeaky clean and the walls are made with the finest white marbles. The throne room is double the size than that of Faika but instead of a throne, there is only a round table with several chairs on the sides. Only two chairs are put in the front. While the chairs look no different than the rest, no one else sits on it because it is reserved for the Emperor and Empress. The Emperor does not care though. He only cares about his country more than a piece of furniture.A dark haired man in his late twenties is standing in the middle of the throne room, waiting for Timur. The diplomat stands in front of the Knight and bows.“Leo!” He greets cheerfully. “How are you doing? And how is Arya?”Leo Romana slightly smiles back. Usually, he has a strict and cold demeanor around others but in fact, he is a very caring pers

When Lavi returned to Faika, Aryan was already waiting for him. In their absence, Aryan was tasked with handling the affairs of the state alongside Charles.

The remaining Black Jack members were also rounded up and a public trial was held for all to witness.In the trial, all of Morales’ misdeeds were revealed and Moira’s truth was also exposed. The public was shocked but the evidence was too overwhelming. All her magic was exposed, leaving nothing but shock and hatred for the deceased Empress. Lavi instantly went to work. In the following weeks, he barely had any time to spare. He had the treasonous officials executed, worked on fixing the public funds, and improving relations with other countries.

*A few minutes ago*Is this death? He wonders.Everywhere around him, he can see only fire and ash but his body is unscathed. The lava is wrapping him in its midst, making it impossible to escape and he does not feel hurt at all. On the contrary, it feels like…home.“Do you get it now, Lavi?” He turns around and smiles to see a beautiful emerald colored dragon with glossy scales and a long neck. The dragon’s tail is very long, almost as long as the mountain of Veneer itself. It is more than a hundred and fifty meters tall with a majestic aura and a commanding presence.“Airen!” Lavi gasps. “You…you are beautiful!”Airen smiles. “You did well, my friend. You protected your mate and released my powers. I am very proud of you!”“What do you mean?”“The prophecy meant for you to raise your dragon by protecting your mate,” Airen deduces. “I did not know it before but the moment the Gatekeeper said that blood must be spilt for the Gods to rise, I knew that you must sacrifice yourself to sa

The creature lets out an ear piercing scream. Everyone tries to cover their ears but the sound is too high and shrill. Nine’s ears are bleeding and she is nearly blown away by the force of the wind when Damien grabs her hand to protect her. He is struggling to hold on to her, the combined force of the sound and wind too much to bear but he does not give up.The others are also trying to stand.“What the hell is that?” Timur gasps.The creature’s feet fall on the ground, crushing anything which comes in its way. Everyone scatters off, trying to avoid falling under the creature’s feet. Timur, Damien, and Nine run with their men, as far away from the creature as possible.“That thing is a God?” Damien yells.“The years of captivity must have turned them like this!” Timur shouts. “They cannot distinguish themselves anymore-”Several soldiers are crumpled under the feet of the Gods. The creature is fast for its size, nearly crushing them. Timur dodges it by inches while Damien and Nine man

SWOOSH!A wave of spells hit the Skelewolves, sending them flying backwards. Damien and Nine, who were nearly buried under the debris of creatures, manage to squeeze out to find Timur and several faes chanting their magic. “Where is the Emperor?” Damien yells.“He has been sent off to find the Empress!” Timur exclaims. “We do not have time!”Several more Skelewolves are attacking them but Timur uses his magic to fend them off. Nine is tired but keeps on cutting down the creatures.“There are too many of them!” She shrieks. “We can’t take them down!”“Do not kill them!” Timur warns. “Injure them but do not kill! They only resurrect when they are killed!”“Yeah well it’s hard not to!” Nine shouts. Damien swishes his sword to injure the creatures. To his surprise, the creatures squeal in pain but do not resurrect. He instantly mind-links with the rest of the army to communicate this. Nine also injures many of them but by then the Skelewoves have multiplied beyond comprehension. There mu

Another fireball hits the Gatekeeper, causing him to let out another earth shattering squeal. This is no ordinary fire but something which can burn the Gods themselves. Lavi aims several flames at him, pushing the Gatekeeper towards the wall. His skin is nearly melting off but the Gatekeeper is still formidable as ever.He growls at Lavi and jumps forward. “Watch out!” Anna shrieks as the creature closes in but Lavi shoots more fire at his chest, throwing him back.“Grrr!” The Gatekeeper snarls. His skin is not healing, the fire burning off the thin hair on its head. Lavi’s face is red with fatigue but he keeps his cool. The creature is not easy to defeat but Lavi is trying to buy time until they can find an escape route. Anna is frantically looking around, hoping to see an exit but the whole place is caged. There is no way out.“Lavi, is there any way to leave?” Anna yells. “How did you get in?”“Roseanne,” Lavi simply says as he hits the creature with another fireball. “Roseanne?

A low growl can be heard in the desolate dungeon. Anna feels goosebumps up her arms and neck, the sound of making her freeze. Even though she is trained, there is something about the growls which is scaring her. It is as if her muscles have gone numb, her brain warped in a twisted fear which cannot be shaken off. Her heart is beating fast, almost bursting out of her chest.“Anna, this is bad,” Thena whispers in her head. “I cannot shift!”“What?”“I cannot shift! The magic in this place is sucking out my energy. Can you not feel it?”Anna can feel it. Her limbs are weak and slow, her reflexes not on their usual alert. The growl is growing louder and louder. A dark shadow is approaching her way, slowly coming to view. Her mouth gapes open in shock.“Oh no,” Anna murmurs.A half wolf, half goat-like creature comes to view. Its eyes are glaring with red beams and a pair of large, curved horns are visible on its head. The torso is of a goat but the teeth are sharp canines. The rest of th

Ras…Anna is staring at the man standing above them. Her eyes are filled with hatred and disgust, her hands wanting to kill him. For how many years has she been planning her revenge? How long was it?The screams of her family members are still haunting her. Their pain, their suffering, and their deaths are like a plague to her, never ending. She can still hear her mother’s cries as she was burned down by the mob. The image of her father’s lifeless body torments her every night, the man who gave up his life to protect her.And Harietta…Her screams will never leave Anna. Her dear sister who suffered a fate worse than death.All because of this man.“Princess Anna Visserion,” Ras greets her with mock politeness. “Welcome to Veneer!”He stretches his hands wide, his lips curved into a smile. Anna growls at him but the Skelewolves are holding her with surprising strength. The lava below her is bubbling and she can hear whispers coming from the ground.“Kill…bleed…kill…”Cassandra is calmly

Moira’s face is contorted in fury and vengeance against the girl in front of her. She is using her magic to beat Anna up, trying to ruin her face. The latter’s face is bashed up but healing slowly. As soon as it heals, Moira beats her up again.Anna does not scream but a smug grin is on her lips. It pains her to think that Lavi is also being tortured but she knows that once he arrives, he will kill Moira with his own hands. The thought of Moira’s death is giving Anna satisfaction. WHACK!Moira hits her again but Anna only laughs.“You are in serious trouble, Empress!” Anna spits at her. “Oh wait…your so-called mate is dead. You are not the Empress anymore-”“SHUT UP!” Moira growls and hits Anna again. Anna falls to the ground, spitting out blood.“I have taken your throne!” Anna taunts her. “I am the Empress now. Lavi is the Emperor. Our children will sit on the throne-”“NOT IF I KILL YOU FIRST!” Moira roars and is about to use her magic to strangle Anna. Cassandra stirs and slowly
