Chapter 74
Nora POV
“Where is Helios? Do you guys have some clue?” I ask, still sitting next to Aurelie,
“No, the witch took him and we still haven’t found him yet but they did some trace magic and found him in the blaze kingdom.” Daniel says and I look at him.
“The Blaze kingdom” I say and remember what my parents told me.
“Yes where you come from, well one of the kingdoms anyway.” Daniel says and sits down.
“Hmm.. I would love to visit there sometime and the Knight kingdom as well” I say and play with Aurelie’s fur.
“Yeah, Aren’t you angry?” Daniel asks and I smile shyly
“No, I heard your debate even though I was confused by it. I don’t feel the same way, I love you but it’s more like a friend or family. I love Ben in the same way” explain and Daniel sighs but nods.
”
Okay, I am sorry that I pushed my feelings onto you” Daniel says and looks away.
“It’s fine Daniel but I would really love to hear more about this Melinda from you” I say and he lifts his head and smiles.
Helios POV
I sit in the armchair and drink coffee while staring off into the fire. Maya is preparing for a war and this mage Luca is Artemis’ son. I wonder where the forbidden land is, and then it
hits me.
“Felix, what do you say about faking a war?” I smile and he looks at me surprised but then gives me a wicked smile.
“To lure the witch out you mean?” Kara asks and looks between us and I nod at her.
“Yes, lets create a fake war and lure her out and then kill her and the mage” I explain and Pete nods
“That would be a good idea actually, and we can eliminate another enemy at the same time” Felix say and I tilt my head
“What other enemy?” I ask and Felix looks at me seriously before nodding at Pete.
Pete gets up and opens a drawer and takes out a folder which he gives to me. I look at Felix before opening it and I almost throw up at the pictures inside it.
“What the hell is this?” I ask and look at Felix in horror
“That is what we wonder as well, these disturbances have shown up all over our territory for a few months back now” Felix says and I look down again and I shiver,
“Something similar was found in the back garden a few days ago also” I say and shiver at the memory
“But this.. this is.. I don’t know what to say about it” I feel disgusted Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
say and
“No this isn’t much to say other than the mothers are crying
blood right now” Kara whispers and looks sad
“Literally?” I ask and they look at me and then they nod
“How did you know?” Felix asks and Pete stands up and looks at me suspiciously
“I have heard something like that before. Have you found a head of a black cat by any chance?” I say and Kara gasps
“How did you know about the cat?” She asks and looks at
Felix.
“Because the very same witch that took me here chopped off one of our cats’ heads and left the body to be found” I say and shake my head.
Kara started crying and Felix hugged her and I felt a pang of sadness inside me.
“This is why she brought me here” I say when it suddenly hits
me
“What do you mean?” Pete says
“She probably thought I would take Kara away from here or mark her on the spot because she and Nora are so much alike and then Felix would have killed me and successfully my kingdom would have started a war with yours” explain. It all makes sense by this.
“That makes sense but what do you believe about the things in the folder?” Felix says and tilts his head at me.
“It looks like a blood sacrifice, a witch does this to gain the magic from the blood of her sacrifices but I don’t understand why she would sacrifice children.” I say and try to think about
what Melinda had told us about the rituals.
“They draw power from it? What the hell is wrong with witches nowadays?” Kara says and looks like she is about to throw up.
“Kara, may I ask what you are?” I ask her and she looks surprised and Felix growls. Kara slaps Felix on his shoulder.
“Hush, Felix.” I am a werewolf actually but I do have some talents from my bloodline” Kara says and Felix huffs
She is the one that decides in this relationship, haha.
“I think we should make up war plans right now. And attack my kingdom. “I say and laugh
“Did that feel fun or wrong to say?” Pete asks and I shrug
“A little bit of both I guess” I say and Felix laughs
“We should set up a room for Helios so he can rest comfortably before we attack his kingdom then” Felix says and Kara nods and gets up.
“I will set up the blue room then” Kara say and I blush
“Ohh, did something happen in another blue room now, Prince Helios?” Felix taunts me and I growl at him playfully-
Felix and I laugh as we get up and Pete shows the way downstairs again and I found that none of the dead guards are lying dead on the floor.
“Da mn, you guys clean up faster than ever” I say and look around
“Well, we have had our share of cleaning experience these
days” Pete shrugs and guides us to the dining room.
I blink at the table, a lot of different food are on top of it and a lot of people are sitting around the huge table.
“Excuse me now.” This here is Prince Helios from the grand kingdom and my esteemed guest, you will treat him as you treat me. Now let’s give him a warm welcome.” Felix say with a loud voice and everyone cheers!
