Chapter 102
Eos sped through the vast forest near Galilee; Her heart pounded as she was terrified for the lives of her children, who couldn’t stop crying. Suddenly, Morgan and Aragne appeared among the trees, accompanied by other nymphs. Aragne, catching sight of Eos, ran to her and wrapped her in a comforting embrace, while two of the nymphs approached the children and took them in their arms. The nymphs took care to reassure the little ones, whispering words of encouragement and displaying an aura of protection around them. Morgan, with an alert eye and a frown, said:
“We must go to the colony. Here we are in danger.
“I must inform my father that we are well; they’re about to reach the Vilkas pack,” Eos said in a sorrowful voice as he moved past Morgan. Perseus is someone else; Sofia has him under some spell, she tried to kill me. My nymph power seems ineffective next to that witch, and I feel like I’ve let everyone down. I don’t feel worthy to be their queen if I can’t protect my own family.
“Eos, you alone cannot destroy that evil. Sofia is possessed by the evil her family has practiced, and feeds on their thirst for revenge. You possess the power to give life, which she does not know,” Morgan replied empathetically, walking beside her.
“Yes, my queen, we are here with you, and we will fight by your side,” added another nymph.
“I don’t know if I can fight. Nature seems to disobey me when Sophia is around,” Eos confessed with doubt in his voice.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
“My queen, you possess powers that are kept dormant because you haven’t practiced them since you became Luna, but I’m here to help you channel them,” Aragne said confidently.
“I’ll go with you as far. I’ll see to it that Alpha Eros doesn’t reach the pack, Vilkas,” he declared, casting a firm eye on Eos. You are strong, my queen. This black witch is an evil that has been born of someone thirsting for revenge, as there is evil, there is also good, with our support good will win.
“Thank you, Morgan, for your words. Please make sure my father doesn’t get all the way to Perseus. That sorceress has convinced him that we killed his father.
“I’ll bring it back to you.” Morgan sped away, leaving Eos and Aragne near the colony.
Upon arriving at the colony, Galilee was greeted with surprise to see Dionysia running towards her.
“I’m glad they got out of the mansion unharmed,” Dionysia exclaimed, expressing her relief.
“What are you doing here?” “You seldom venture out of your corner in the woods,” Galilee asked, breaking away from the group to speak to Dionysia.
“Ever since we talked, I felt strange, like I was choking and my heart was compressed. I checked my spell book and felt the energy of this evil incarnated in that witch. Our people are in danger, so I left the cabin not knowing what to do until I met Aragne. We both experience the same thing. She brought me here, and I told Morgan about what I saw of that dark witch. That’s when they went out to the mansion in search of you.
“I saw a void in Perseus’ eyes, he didn’t recognize us. I was going to stay to find out what that witch did to him but seeing that I didn’t recognize Eos and the rage that emanated from him frightened me. Thanks to Eulio, who called his father and caused him to react, we were able to escape.
Dionysia took both of Galilee’s hands and, looking at her intensely, said:
“I know you don’t want to delve into the good roots you have in you, but you’re the one chosen to receive my knowledge. My days in this earthly form are rare, and you need to learn to help the ones you love and those who will need you.
“Okay, for my family’s sake I’ll try to become like you,” Galilee confessed, accepting the responsibility she was going to receive for the sake of her people.
Eos was pacing back and forth, full of anxiety, when she saw her father. She ran to him and burst into tears. In his arms she felt protected, and in that moment, she relived the security of her childhood.
“Daddy! He was afraid that you would come to the Vilkas pack and Perseus would hurt you.
“My princess, my puppy, I’m glad you’re well. My puppies, how are they? I want to see them. Eros blurted out, uneasy about his daughter’s anguish.
Eos took his father by the hand and led him to a hut. Eros went in and saw his grandchildren asleep. She let out a big sigh, and then looked at her daughter with regret in her eyes.
“Daughter, we must return to the blue herd. There we will meet with your aunt and uncle to plan the invasion of the Vilkas pack and rescue our wolves from the evil of that witch. You must be strong for your puppies; you know that Perseus would give his life for you.
Eos, feeling the weight of the future on his shoulders, put his arms around his father’s back, seeking comfort in his chest. Aware that the challenges ahead would not be easy.
Arriving at the Blue herd, Eros, along with his people, descended from the chariots. As they all made their way towards the house, Danna’s pale figure appeared, and upon seeing her husband she collapsed. Eros, acting quickly, took her in his arms and held her tenderly, and strode up the stairs to the room, followed by his daughter.
“Dad, how long has Mommy been like this?” He asked, his voice breaking.
“He’s been feeling sick since yesterday. I’m going to call the doctor,” Eros replied worriedly.
“Daddy, I’m going to heal her,” Eos approached the bed to stand next to his mother, when she stretched out her hand she was interrupted.
“Eos! Before you do anything, I want to check it,” Dionysia interjected, pulling a talisman from her purse. I need to know what she has before you try to cure her. He walked over to Danna and passed the object over her from top to bottom, carefully examining the irises of her eyes.
“Danna has been poisoned, but not with the intention of killing her, but to deprive her of her gift against beasts,” Dionysia reported.
“That witch of Sophia has something to do with this,” Eos shouted, her indignation in her eyes.
Fury burned in Eros’ eyes as he left the room in silence. His clenched jaw reflected the internal storm raging within him. He summoned his Gamma, Uriel, and ordered him to summon his trusted men to surround the mansion, making sure that no one could get out.
At the back of the mansion, Uriel gathered all the employees, forming a row of nervous and expectant faces. The air was heavy with tension as, one by one, they were subjected to extensive interrogation. The nerves intensified with each question, until finally, they found the culprit who had supplied Danna with a concoction.
