All Chapters of Dark Obsession: Taming His Demons: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

Mansoor The King’s gaze remained on me, studying me, trying to figure out where to start. I could see the determination in his eyes, along with a tinge of respect. I might be imagining the respect, and it seemed like it. “As much as I like your devotion and fire, there is much you need to learn. You have remained in your Pictorian bubble, keeping close company with Aeron, Julia and my children. It is time for you to mix with the people, learn our ways, and have roots in Acquillonia, and because of this, I will be sending you to the gate duty. Where you will work with wolves of all ranks, Lycans, werewolves, and halfbreeds. There, you will learn camaraderie and patience." He said, and I heard Ivory scream from outside the door. Was she eavesdropping all along? "You are sending him to the gate to go and die, Father. It is wrong. It was all Cyprian's fault," Ivory said, rushing in, sounding frantic; Laila followed the fear in her eyes. "How can you say that, Ivory?" the queen's father

Jasmine Things had been crazy. It had been a month since Mansoor was sent to the gate, and Ivory hadn't been the same. I have been too occupied to help my sister, and it bothers me. Most of the ships we were expecting from Hill and Snow had arrived, and even though I hated working with Margrette and Zarah, our work was fine. We have been diligent, and they have been kind enough to stay out of my way. We weren't children anymore, and I could order things to happen to them. I guess that is why they have been silent. As I watched the people load crates of food onto the vessels on my charge, I could not help but think of what was coming. I had not had any vision since the vision I had of the timekeeper. I wondered if that would be my last revelation or if Stasia had somehow stolen that from me, too. "Your Highness," I heard someone say, snapping me out of my deep thoughts. I looked behind me and saw it was Zarah. What did this woman want right now? I did not want to have to deal with

Nikolas I woke up at five in the morning, and I felt a strong foreboding in my spirit, an uneasiness I could not explain. I shouldn't feel this way. Everything was going as expected. Yesterday, we finally agreed to set a date for my children's wedding, and Ivory looked at me like she used to for the first time in a month, so why did I feel uneasy? Why was there a strong need for urgency? I went to the window to watch the sunrise and look at the vast expanse of land that my eyes could see. Were we in over our heads to think we could survive a dark witch and a mad king with an army of godlike wolves? Were we arrogant to think it would be possible? Should I have just insisted we all loaded ourselves on the two hundred vessels and abandoned Acquillonia? The unease was strong. It had been there since we returned from Blizzard, but it was strong this morning. The silence and lack of dreams and visions were making me uneasy. It felt like the calm before a storm, but I couldn't tell if we wer

Jasmine I could not believe that it was finally upon us. They had finally come, and just as promised, they came with destruction. When I saw the smokey sky that obstructed the sun, I knew something was coming. I could feel it. Though my sleep was dreamless, the uneasiness that rested within my spirit spoke volumes. Little did I know our time was up. When I heard of the fall of Hill and the fact that it was possible that King Piotr had fallen, my heart shattered into a million pieces. Though not related by blood, he was family. I heard the door to Aeron's house open, and I went to check who it was. It was already evening, and we had successfully evacuated most of the people, along with the people of Hill that had arrived. I had also heard rumours of people arriving from Snow; the truth was, the vessels available might not be enough to carry everyone, and soon, we would have to start choosing who would leave and who would stay. I dreaded that time because I knew it would cause chaos a

Aeron The sound of the alarm was deafening, and I knew what it was saying. It meant people were coming. Doing my best, I tried to link someone, anyone at the gate, taking advantage of my range, but my father beat me to it. "Please be calm. We need to be ready,” he called out, and the garden was silent. "King Piotr and King Miles just arrived with their families and warriors. They were under attack, and many of the soldiers at the gate have fallen. They are trying to shut the gate permanently before falling back. The attackers are at the gate," My father said, and I cursed under my breath because the moment he said it, Ivory began to scream in agony, and I knew she was mourning Mansoor. Laila followed, and I tried to link Mansoor but met silence. It was either he had blocked me off or… I didn't want to think of the worst. Jasmine held her sister immediately to comfort her. "You have to get yourself together," she said, also in tears, and I could feel her rage. I knew something had
