VIOLET
I teleport back to Vladania and find myself sitting on the same seat.
“ VIOLET. ” Kane gasps and hurries towards me.
I inhale deeply and look at everyone in the room. They all seem to be engaged in a heated argument but just as they see me, they stop talking.
“ Where did you go? ” Wolf, who was standing on the other side of the table near Luther, rounds the table and approaches me.
“ We were worried sick. How can you just disappear like this? ” Viktor hisses, making me look at him.
I gulp, not saying anything. I am still in shock.
Wolf places his hands over my shoulder, sparks beginning to claim my body and making me relax.
“ We need to talk. ” I tell Wolf while looking at Viktor.
If all these people get to know about what’s happening back there at the pack Wolf controls, they might back off thinking we are weak and can’t be trusted.
VIOLETI sigh. I can’t let them talk to Gysla or they will know. Besides, I have a better idea using which I can teleport everyone at the same time.It’s another one of the things Gysla has taught me about the portals that I am going to practice today for the first time.“ I am going to teleport the whole city at the same time. ” I disclose, pulling my hand out of Wolf’s hand.“ Wow. You are going big. ” Stefan mutters, definitely not liking the idea.I throw my head back and look at the sky. The sun is still not completely over my head.“ We don’t have much time. ” I assert, looking down.If Katrina knows about everything, she will be here sooner than I anticipate.“ Tell me about the pack which can accommodate all these people. ” I turn to Wolf and ask him.Wolf takes a deep breath a
WOLFIf only I hadn’t tried to believe her and had believed what my senses were telling me.She was clearly lying when she said she was keeping no secrets from me.But, now the time has passed and we are in a huge problem once again.Still, nothing is as scary as seeing Violet unconscious, bleeding from her eyes.“ Caught you! ” Katrina appears out of thin air and the portal begins to form behind her.She is still at some distance. I look behind me, at the wall and sigh.Violet must have done something against the rules of the Orphena…That’s why the spirits are not allowing her in.Kane, Cassius and Stefan move forward and cover Violet’s unconscious figure in my arms with their bodies.I lay her down on the ground carefully and glance at her nose. Her nose and mouth is starting to bleed like her eyes.My blood is running cold in my veins, fear gripping my heart
KANE It’s surreal. I thought everything was getting better and better day by day. Violet was learning a lot of things and her relationship with Wolf took a drastic turn. She accepted being his mate and she was even happy about it. Everything was on the right fucking track right?But now, she is gone. Wow. Two days have passed. Two whole fucking days. And she is still unconscious. She wakes up in intervals. Opens her eyes, stares at the ceiling, doesn’t respond and then falls unconscious again. It’s like we all are sitting on a seat of thorns, unable to understand what to do to wake her up. “ He is not helping this situation. ” Stefan grunts, raking his hands through his hair. “ For how long is he planning on sitting on the same spot? He will fall sick himself and then we will have two problems to deal with. ” Cassius joins in. We three are sitting in th
VIOLETI have been wandering around for a while, my soul aches. It’s hot in here, in this complete and absolute emptiness.No matter how much I walk or how much I try to escape this place, I find myself still trying.The red space never ends us. I scream, I cry, I throw a fit in frustration — cursing at the higher ones whoever they are. Yet in the end, I only meet with this silent which is driving me crazy.Physical pain has never hurt me like this eerie frustration is damaging me emotionally. I feel drained, at the verge of giving up and dropping on the ground, to wait for those bastards to come get me themselves.Still, I don’t stop. I want to get back to my home, to my new family.Katrina was there. What did she do to them? Did she take Wolf and my friends with her? Has she caged them? Is she hurting them?All these thoughts are killing me.&
VIOLETI blink my eyes open and they land right at Wolf. He is sitting in front of me, his eyes closed and his hand holding mine.I feel the exhaustion weighing me down. It feels like I am dead, physically and mentally.How many days has it been?The higher ones did mention 3 days something but is it really possible for me to be unconscious for only three days when I felt like years were passing in that dessert?I lift my hand and place it at Wolf’s cheek. His eyes snap open.I gulp, seeing the redness of his eyes and the hollowness of his cheeks.He doesn’t say anything for a moment and only looks at me. After a moment, he slowly releases my hand and pushes his arm under my neck, lifting me up and wrapping his arms around my figure.A heavy breath escapes his chest, his heart pounding. The little tremo
VIOLET“ I am hungry. ” I tell Wolf after a long pause.He pulls away and slides my hair behind my ears. “ Do you want me to go get you something to eat? ”I shake my head. “ Help me up. I want to go myself. ”Wolf gives me an unsure look before he gets up and holds my hands, helping me to my feet. My head is beginning to pound with a strong headache and it spins just as I place my feet on the cold floor. I wear the slippers placed beside the bed while I feel dizzy.I look down at my clothes and find myself wearing a pink floral dress this time. It reaches down to my knees, leaving my lower legs bare.My hands appear clean and so do my hair.Shivers creep up my spine, making me grit my teeth.It takes me a moment to finally stand on my feet without feeling like I might lose my balance and fall on the floor, breaking my nose in the way.“ Are you okay? ” Wolf
VIOLETAfter talking to Cassius, I go back to the kitchen. To my surprise, everyone has left except Kane who is sitting on the table, staring at the wall blankly.“ What’s wrong with you? ” I wonder out aloud.Kane blinks his eyes, moving his gaze towards me. “ We left your brother and Cora in Vladania. ”I shake my head. “ They are safe there. ”“ Don’t you think we should have brought them with us? You are forgetting something…The people of Vladania are vampires and Elias, Cora are humans. ” Kane mentions another point, a frown drawing up on his forehead.“ I know the people of Vladania are vampires and I know you are worried that they might hurt the humans but I also know…Viktor won’t let it happen. ” I sit down on the chair in front of Kane, trying to assure him.“ I don&
VIOLET“ Is this enough to shut you up for a while? ” I whisper close to his lips and lean a little back to look in his eyes.Wolf takes a deep breath, holding it in as he stares me down.“ Just by looking at you…I can tell there is something strange going on in this pretty head of yours. ” Wolf releases the breath he held back.Pushing his left hand forward, he brushes my bangs off my forehead delicately.“ What’s going in? ” He questions.I grab his right arm and push it under my head to use it as a pillow. “ Nothing. ”“ You should tell me before I have to work hard to find it out on my own. ” Wolf pulls me closer and coils his left arm around my waist.“ Find out on your own then. ” I yawn, pressing my forehead against his neck.“ I hope you are not trying to put y
