Chapter 58
“Come on, My Luna… don’t make it hard for the both of us. You know you can’t hide from me, right?” It was Lucas’ voice, making Candela shivers not with the freezing temperatures of where she is but she shivers in fear.
After having a single chance to escape on Lucas again, Candela grabbed that piece of chance. She pushes Lucas after losing his focus on her earlier. And when she successfully threw his body away from him, she took the chance to run. Using her vampire speed, she run as fast as she can but Lucas was undeniably fast too that is why, now, she is lurking herself into the thick frozen bushes of the forest.
But still, hiding can not help Candela anymore. Lucas, a werewolf, have a strong sense of smell that is why he already knew where she is. He is just playing around, making her more frightened.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Sooner or later, Candela’s body will not cooperate anymore. She doesn’t habe enough strength to fight him, and even she tried to, it will remain futile. All she can do by now was to hide and prayed silently for miracle. She heading to the North border but from where she is right now, the North territory is still miles and miles away. With the freezing temperature making it hard for her to continue her journey. Plus the presence of Lucas everywhere she go, going to her target destination seems a life time journey.
“My Luna…” Lucas chimed as Candela pressed herself against the bushes. But she instantly cussed inside when her movement made the bushes creates attracting sound.
It then followed by Lucas boisterous laughed. “I think I already got you, My Luna.” Candela heard his footsteps coming on her direction.
“But before I finally got you with my hands, let’s make a deal first.” Candela bit her lips, restraining herself to make a noise.
“If I got you, what if you will allow me finally to own you? And if I didn’t catch you then you are free to go. What do you think of that, My Luna?” Lucas asked, still drawing near the bushes where she is.
“I think silence means yes?” Lucas added. “Let me count of three. When I said three and I saw you, then you are mine now, Candela my love…”
“One,” Lucas started the counting making Candela’s heart beats in nervousness.
“Two…”
“Two and a half!” Candela pressed her lips together, shutting her eyes tightly closed.
“Three!” The count ended with Lucas, on her front… grinning at her. “I told you, you are mine, My Luna. Mine alone.” Candela tried to run fast but it was too late for Lucas already grabbed her hands, tying it together before she lost her conscious.
Her body landed exactly on Lucas’ arms. Lucas on the other hand, lifted Candela’s unconscious body. He then walked through his horse and put Candela on the back of it before they head back to the Middle Kingdom.
As he walked out of the forest, he couldn’t help but to glanced at Candela’s face frequently. He smiled in victory knowing that he didn’t just found the most beautiful Luna for her, but also, he had taken away something special from her mortal enemy. The vampire whom he can not forget, whom he can not forgive.
Lord Blade Crimson, the first born of the Crimson Family. The vampire who killed his younger sister in the most tragical way.
“Brother… I want him. I want him to be mine!” It was his sister, Aloha, who’s begging for the man she loved.
He was more willing to do anything for her, anything just for her sister but Blade made it hard for him. He once came to meet Blade, but the prince just shooed him away. He shooed him away along with the promise he gave to her sister, Aloha.
Aloha once became Blade’s woman. Just a bed warmer for Blade. According to his sister, Blade didn’t know her sister’s true identity as Aloha uses a spell to hide it. But the time came that Blade found out Aloha’s true identity that caused so much pain to his sister. Blade shooe her away, humiliating in front of different vampires.
But that was not the end of his sister’s pain. Aloha begged for Blade to stay but Blade remained heartless, remained merciless. He didn’t listen to her until her sister ends her own life.
“She is vulnerable and your mate knew it. He knew how vulnerable my sister is but he didn’t show any concern to her. Just because she is a werewolf, is that enough reason for him to kill my beloved sister? He made Aloha to killed herself… he killed my sister!” Lucas growled on the unconscious body of Candela.
Tears dropped on his eyes. He then laughed humorless that made him looks like a crazy. “But now that you are mine now, I finally get my revenge… a revenge I promised to my sister,” he said.
After long hours of his journey back to the Middle Castle, Lucas was expecting a warm welcome from Amari for bringing her daughter back. But to his horror, it wasn’t a celebration that welcomed him but a war scene. An intense battle happening in the palace.
As he walked deep through the palace’s gate, he saw lifeless body of werewolves… of vampires that eventually turning into ashes. When his eyes looked up the entrance door of the palace, there goes his Dad… the Alpha. Surrounded by lots of vampires that are trying to attack him. Though his father is strong enough to fight those vampires, it was still difficult for him as their numbers are continue on attacking him.
He was about to joined the fight, helping his father but he was eventually nailed on the ground. When the door flew open, a man in an armor from the back of his father stabbed him. A long howl made each and every one to stopped. Nailing their eyes on the sources of the howl.
Lucas father– Alpha William, from the Silver Crest Pack– just died in a war.
In war between the werwolves and the vampires.
The war that have started long time ago, and now rekindled by their very own hatred.
