All Chapters of Aurora and the Heart of Magic: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

TYSON’S POV Exhaling loudly, I sat with a thump on my bed. I had foiled probably the two hundredth attempt of my enemies to kill Aurora. Though this time something seemed off. It was a very easy win almost as if the man was trying to test something rather than fighting. I had to be more careful in the future.The screen lit up with a notification, ‘Tiara’s milk was spiked with poison in Pearl Palace.’Hell! That attack was just a ploy to keep me distracted while they carried out their original plan. Those M*****F******! It was time for part B of the plan.I would soon put an end to all of this. There was no way I would let them hurt Aurora or my little angel. I would keep her safe and protected no matter what I had to do.I picked up the skin-colored mask and wore it on my face. Soon, the person staring at me had a wheatish complexion, no scar, and a huge mole top of the lips. I put on blue contacts to comp

AURORA’S POV I felt so restless at the thought of taking my little girl on a dangerous expedition. Unfortunately, I had no choice.Caleb stood up and took out a scroll from his pocket. The paper looked so thin that I was scared it would tear just because we tried to open it.Spreading it out on the table Caleb explained, “This was given to me by a very powerful seer who owed me a favor. This is an ancient map that shows the location of the portal. It is nestled in the nucleus of a dense forest. This forest is surrounded by concentric stretches of seas, deserts, and high mountains.”“Dang it! Caleb, we can’t possibly think of taking my newborn baby to such a place! I don’t think she can bear the unending journey and climatic fluctuations…”“Who said we have to travel? We can teleport.” Zarina said shrugging her shoulders.I smacked my forehead. I had forgotten that

TYSON’S POV We had been following Aurora for what seemed like forever. I was tempted to leave her alone but I didn’t want to take any chances with her safety.“Does she even know what she is doing?” I grumbled, taking ye another turn.Caleb snorted and replied, “So, the great king can’t digest the fact the someone is better than him…”My eyebrows furrowed as I thought about it. Was I jealous of Aurora? I don’t think so. If she could take us out of the maze, I would feel proud; just like I felt proud whenever Aslan outwitted me in childhood.Letting out a deep sigh, I caught up with Aurora who was staring at a tiny passage. Her face lit upon seeing me. “I have been marking all the trees along the way. We have been passing the same trees again and again. These two are the only ones that are not marked. Let us try taking this path.” She gushed excitedly.I didn

TYSON’S POV “We are here looking for something. I was wondering if you could help us…” I said leaning forward.“Paranoid and impatient as ever… You didn’t even ask how this grandma is… How rude…”Clenching my fists I gritted out, “How are you grandma?”She chuckled and replied, “Now that the great king of dragons has called me ‘grandma’ I should be fine, shouldn’t I?”My eyes widened in surprise as I hadn’t expected her to know my identity. She didn’t seem as ordinary as she looked.“Please don’t mind him, grandma. He is helpless by nature..” Aurora said, flashing her a wide smile. Ah! That smile… it could drain you of all anger and pain. “Why would I take offense to my grandson’s behavior?”“Thank you so much, grandma. We are here

TYSON’S POVI sat there dumbfounded for a long time. What was wrong with this girl? It took every ounce of my willpower to confess my feelings for her but in the end, she just ran away without listening to me.Exhaling deeply, I went in search of Caleb and Aurora. The sun had reached close to the horizon and would set soon. I had to find both of them before sunset. It wasn’t a good idea to stay alone in the forest especially at night.After about an hour of toiling, I found Caleb standing at the edge of a steep valley.“What are you doing here?” I asked sneaking upon him. Startled, he turned around so quickly that he almost fell into the valley.“Damn it! Tyson… Can’t you be more thoughtful? Look at the valley… if I fall down... I will be turned into pulp,” Caleb said regaining his balance and taking a few steps away from the edge.Catching his breath he asked, “W
