“No!” Anna yells. Smoke and soot fill the air and she coughs hard. She raises her hand to get her mother but a crowd of people are surrounding Alexa Visserion. She is strapped to a pole with hay stacks surrounding her and someone is chanting a spell. A man in a hoodie steps forward and glances at Anna. His glass eye is visible from under his cloak, glaring at her.
He grins at her. Anna is helpless as the man snaps his fingers and suddenly, a large flame erupts in the hay stacks surrounding Alexa.
“Take her and run!” Alexa screams, not caring about the pain engulfing her. “RUN!”
Anna does not even get the time to run for her mother. A pair of

Anna slowly makes her way towards the study where Lavi is sleeping. She slides the door open and enters the room.Lavi is lying somewhere, still. His eyes are closed and he is in a peaceful slumber, oblivious to everything else. Anna sniffs the air to locate him and deduces that he is sleeping on the couch a few feet from her.She quietly puts the tray on a nearby table and approaches him, taking out the knife from her pocket.Unbeknownst to her, the rays of the sun are peeping through an open window, shining on him. He is motionless on the couch, gently breathing. His reddish hair is ruffled and his face is peaceful, giving him a more innocent look. The sweet scent of his mate hits his nostrils and he opens his eyes to find that Anna is standing above him with a knife raised.

The neighing of horses can be heard from afar. A large party of soldiers are approaching the Crown Prince’s palace, stopping in front of the dark gates.“Stop!” One of the gatekeepers alerts them. “Who are you?”He watches as the leader of the troop gets down from his horse and walks towards the gate. The man is of heavy build and quite tall. He is wearing a large armor while the emblem of the Costa family is carved on the brooch stuck on his chest. The man stands tall, walking proudly towards the palace gates.Slowly, he takes off his helmet.Soft blonde hair is shining under the sunlight, the rays falling on his exotic features. The man is tanned with boyish looks even though he is well into his twenties.

“You should have thought of that when you killed my mate,” Damien says. “Remember Yana? Or did you forget about her too?”A long silence ensues between the two men as they angrily stare at each other. Lavi stays silent but Damien is not going to spare him.“How funny!” Damien laments. “The Crown Prince goes unpunished for my mate’s murder while I suffer for the rest of my life!”He lets out a mirthful laughter.“I see that your mate’s death did not turn you into an empty shell,” Lavi notes.“It did…”Damien’s anger is mixed with deep melancholia, his heart wrapped in a literal pa

Damien is outside the palace with his men, waiting for Lavi to come out. From afar, he can make out the thin frame of a girl walking towards them. He recognizes her as the same girl whom he met outside of Lavi’s office. She seems to be having some problem with walking because her movements are slow and she is trying to find her way to the gates. He gets down from his horse and approaches her. Anna feels his presence as he comes nearer and slightly bows before him. “Sir Wilde,” she greets. “I will be accompanying the Prince on the journey.” “Are you sure you want to accompany us?” Damien asks in a kind tone. “The journey is long and not so easy. There might be rogues out there who can attack us.” “I have to obey the Prince’s orders,” Anna states.

The horses are galloping along the deserts of Pir while the hot sun blazes in the sky. Only half the day has passed and they still have a long journey ahead of them. Lavi is on a black stallion, looking haughty and unaffected by the sun but the men around him are already exhausted by the heat. Even Damien seems to be feeling the heat.Anna, on the other hand, is used to the hot weather and is calm. She can feel Lavi’s gaze on her every now and then but she cannot read his mood at all. It feels strange to be the object of his attention as if he will attack her any moment but cannot do so because of Damien.The knight has a protective grip around her, keeping her safe in her seat but Anna barely notices. She is more focused on memorizing the route in order to execute her plan. They are taking the southern road which means that they are going to pass by some

Lavi drags Anna into the room, shutting the door behind him. Once inside, he turns on her.“You will return to the castle,” he says. “Now.”“Huh? You are the one who brought me here!”“And now I am telling you to leave. I will take you there and then return-”“No!”Anna is adamant. She refuses to leave because if she does, Lavi might escape. Moreover, by staying close to him, she will get more information on him.Lavi, however, is not going to back down either. “You must leave,” he stresses. “I should not have brought you here when-”He trails off

Anna is anxious as she paces back and forth the chamber. She is trying to use her senses and link with her pack members but everything is coming at a blank. It is as if she is still in Lavi’s palace where the magic prevents her from contacting her guild members. But they are not in the palace now so she should be able to contact them.Then why can she not do it?“Magic?” she ponders. “Is there some sort of magic here?”Did the Emperor lure Lavi into a trap? Why did he not tell her? Surely, Damien or someone from the Royal guard would have told her. The Emperor must have planned this…She unconsciously takes off her shawl, feeling too hot. For some reason, she is feeling a little too warm after their arrival. It is strange because she

Lavi throws Anna on the bed. She winces as she lands on her back, feeling feverish by the Heat.“You should have listened to me and returned to the castle!” He barks at her. “Listen to me for once!”Anna is irritated by his nagging and becomes defensive.“I did not know that I was in Heat!” She snaps at him. “I never felt like this before!”The Heat is a state which only the female counterpart will experience once they find their mates. If they are not marked or rejected, the Heat will affect them every month.“Tell me your name and I will reject you,” Lavi offers. “You will escape the Heat then!”

*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

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.

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
