Diana DIANA RAN PAST the opened entrance, and continued to run till she was in blending with the forest. She only slowed down when her adrenaline began to wear off, and the heat returned. "We did it!" Sia cheered in delight as she looked back, seeing no one. Diana lowered herself to the ground and Sia climbed down, and she quickly shifted to her skin and stood up on wobbly legs. "Oh my, that was- Woah!" Sia began to say but cut herself off at the sight of a very naked Diana. "Gosh, Diana, put some clothes on!" "Sorry, I..." Diana could not finish her sentence when she began to fall. The heat was beginning to consume her insides. Sia was quick to catch her, but the moment her hands touched Diana's skin, she pulled away and gasped. "You are burning up, Diana." "I know. We have to get to a river now," Diana muttered, struggling to find her footing. "Alright, but where can we find one now? I do not think there is any river in this area." Diana shook her head. "There is, I ca
Sia "BETTER?" SIA ASKED, sitting by the edge of the river. "Much better," Diana confirmed with a sigh, the cold water hitting her hot skin. "Join me?" Sia shook her head. "If I have to try to stop you from running to your mate, and also prevent other wolves from getting to you, I would prefer not to be wet. Besides, I am a fire elemental, we don't do too well with water." Diana sighed, sinking deeper into the water till only her head was out of the water. "You think they have given up on looking for us by now?" Sia asked. "No, I believe they should be on our tails by now," Diana responded, playing with the ripples around her. "You are the only one with a tail, Diana," Sia reminded, and Diana rolled her eyes. "Also, if you know they are right behind us, why then are we not getting as far away from here as possible?" "They should be on our tails– well, my tail and your behind–" Diana corrected, giving Sia another pointed look. "–but that doesn't mean they are." Sia frowned.
DianaSIA SHOT A fireball at the door, and before her eyes, the same fireball was sucked into the door."What the…" Sia muttered to herself, but Diana heard her clearly, and the look of shock on Sia's face was satisfactory in every way. "Now, can I go in?" Diana smirked. Ignoring her, Sia began firing fireball after fireball at the door which kept on absorbing each ball. Soon, she was holding the biggest fireball Diana had ever seen, and was ready to shoot at the door. Diana sighed. She could watch this all day, but right now, she did not have all day. She was beginning to burn up again. "Um, I really have to go in now. Perhaps you should consider giving up." "No, wait, just this one more," Sia protested and shot the ball which was once again—as expected—sucked in. The enormous fireball was followed by more huge fireballs. Till Sia groaned in frustration and put down her arms. Tired yourself out yet?" Diana questioned. Not because she was trying to mock Sia, but because she wa
DianaFINDING OUT SOMETHING new about a person she thought she knew, left Diana unsure of how to feel. After all, she hid from Julia, the truth about the Crown. Robin never really trusted Julia, and Rudolph was too in love with her to be able to tell something was off. Diana, on the other hand, was too excited about having another female in the group that she did not try too hard to understand who Julia truly was. All she knew about Julia's past, was the fact that she was exiled. Now, finding out that Julia had all along, clues that could possibly lead to the missing pages of the Witches' Circle, made Diana feel a little sad, and a lot stupid. "How did I not even suspect her? Even just a little bit. I mean, I knew she was exiled, I should have tried to find out what really happened," Diana said with a deep groan. Sia chuckled. "Trust me, the Julia I know would not have given you any reason to suspect her. Growing up, she was the best at the illusion spells. Hoax reality was her
Aiden ON THE OTHER side of the table, Aiden stood in front of a table with different torture instruments laid out on them. He was not planning on using all but one. He picked up the small knife in his hand. He stalked back to them, taking his time on each stride. "You know, it would only take one bite for me to find out everything you are hiding," Aiden informed them, causing their eyes to widen.Aiden smirked. "Oh, yes, I inherited my mother's ability, and no one but you three knows about that. And do you know why I told you?" He chuckled as he heard them gulp, but no one responded. He decided to respond to his own question anyway. "Well, it's because none of you are leaving this place alive. Isn't that wonderful? "You wanted to leave together, now you get to die together," Aiden cheered as he had just given them the best news ever. Lord Marcus fell to his knees, with his head bowed to Aiden's feet. "Please, Your Highness, you have no proof we betrayed you. Have mercy upon me
Diana IT WAS NIGHTTIME when they finally got to the Kingdom of the Witches.At that moment, a guard was leading them to a room so Diana could shift back, and once she was done, he would take them to the King's Castle where King Marse was already expecting them. 'Diana.'Knowing who the voice belonged to, Diana chose not to respond. 'I know you can hear me, Diana. I understand you are furious, but you do not have to talk, just listen.'I reached out to Selene but it was near impossible to get through to her. It seemed like an invisible wall was stopping me from reaching her. After so many tries, I finally got to her. 'They are cutting her out, Diana.''Cutting her out? What do you mean by that?' Diana questioned. 'They are taking away her immortality and making her reincarnate as a human.' Diana's eyes widened. 'Wait, what? But then can't do that! Why would they?' 'Remember at the evolution camp, when you commanded all those creatures-''What has that got to do with this, Luna?'
Diana'WAIT A MINUTE, since Selene is the Crown, would that not activating it as well, make her come out, too? That could be the end of me,' Diana said, muttering the last sentence.'Selene knew you would say that, and she was right. But so are you.' Diana frowned, leaning against the sink. She never expected this day to come so quickly. 'One thing is to have the thought in your head, but seeing it happen is a different thing. 'I have always known that Selene would one day take over my body, and now that it is going to happen, I do not know what to feel.' 'Selene asked me to tell you that the end might not be as you are expecting it to be'Diana, you should remember that the three of us are one. Human, Wolf, and goddess. We are one and the same; mind, body, and spirit.''How long does she have?' Diana asked with a sigh, completely brushing off what Luna said.'Currently, she is undergoing trial and she has barely two human days before she is sentenced,' Luna said, before disappear
DianaTHE FIRST THING Diana did when she got out of the bathroom was tell Sia everything Luna had told her. Diana found it easy to talk to the witch since both of them had gone through similar ordeals. Their lives were almost similar and they were both carrying a huge weight on their shoulders. However, what Diana did not tell Sia, was that activating the Crown would mean the end of her. She did not want to burden Sia with that thought. "Do you know King Marse personally?" Sia asked as they walked behind the guard, to King Marse's Castle. "Not really, I have only met him during the Supreme Leader's meetings, and some balls my father would host," Diana responded. "Wow, you must have had a fun childhood. I have always wanted to attend a Royal ball but my mother would never let me. "She wanted to keep me as far away from the public eye, as possible," Sia said, then chuckled. "In less than a month, I have defied every rule she made for me."Diana could understand the concept of rule
