ANDREWNoah lowers his arm and Artanis falls to the floor, quickly gets up and runs out, desperately opens the door. I keep staring at her, not understanding anything at all.— Can you explain to me what happened here, Noah?— Nothing happened, she was out of control, and you know how theatrical she is!— That's not what I noticed, you had your arm raised, it looked like you were using magic!— Magic? I don't have powers, where did you get that idea?I watch him walk away and head towards the bathroom, I feel like he's hiding something from me, but what would have happened? I'm not crazy, he used magic on Artanis I'm sure. [...]Noah using magical powers, Artanis chasing me, the possible Lost Prince appearing in the middle of the ceremony. So many happenings lately, that I don't really know what to do, what decisions to make. I know I could use this moment to run away, but where would I run? The purpose of my escape at that moment was to find the Lost Prince to escape the royal oblig
ANDREWSince I laid eyes on Noah my wolf has identified something important in him, but I never imagined he could be someone so important in my life, and the strange feelings that formed in my mind about what he intends to tell me is making me terribly worried. .— I think you better sit down, the story I have to tell is quite long!The expression of seriousness on his face makes me very worried, although I have known him like this, today we are in a different moment, even if my father and all the rules that surround my condition as Prince do not allow it, we are a couple, predestined and in love. Noah looks down, takes both hands, wraps his fingers around them, swallows, and I sense there's something very powerful he wants to say, and he's working up the courage to say it.— Noah, whatever it is you can tell me, I'm here to listen to you!— I know, the problem is that it might sound a little surprising, and I don't know how I should begin to tell you...— From the beginning, it must
NOAHTelling everything to Andrew made me feel lighter, hiding all this from him was making me very anxious, after all we are in a relationship, we are predestined and it wouldn't be fair to hide something so important from him. What we should be doing right now is thinking carefully about escape, but his mouth devouring mine doesn't allow me to think about anything but the sensations. I feel happy and relaxed when his tongue meets mine. His lips are extremely soft, what started as a tender, soft kiss is taking on a much bigger, hotter proportion for the moment. My tongue roams his mouth as I wrap my hands around his neck and our kiss becomes more intense, my heart beats a mile a minute. Andrew pulls away from my lips, our breaths ragged. I open my eyes, and meet his intense and warm gaze at me, I smile slightly at him, who moves away a little.— What's it? — I ask him, while watching him stare at nothing in front of him.— Nothing.— Nothing? And are you like this?— It's nothing, No
NOAHBefore I turn the handle, it turns on its own. I look at Balck, my heart is beating wildly, instinctively holding tight, and the other person says something.— I think they must have locked it, I can't open it!The voice on the other side of the door is high pitched, too irritating, and familiar to my ears. Artanis. The sound of her voice is silenced, we stand there for a few minutes, in silence waiting for some movement, and apparently she seems to have gone away.— I think we can go now! — Balck exclaims. — How did you manage to hold the door? Was it the ring?— I think so, I wouldn't have so much strength to hold the door with just my hand![...]— Wow, it's so dusty in here! — Balck says admiringly.— Of course, since it was isolated, no one else has entered here, other than some magic preventing anyone from entering! — Andrew responds.— How are we going to get out of here? Do you have a plan? — Balck asks.— So, it looks like they still haven't realized that the guards have
NOAHI open my eyes with difficulty, a bright light makes it difficult, but it's not the glow of the ring. The sunlight hits my face, I cover it with my hands to block the rays, that's when the images pop into my mind, hitting me so hard I have an instant headache. What a realistic dream, it was the most surreal dream I've ever had. Wait... I wasn't dreaming! Everything I saw was real, I ran away from the Palace, and along with me were my brother and Andrew.— Balck, Andrew... Where are they?I hear the bedroom door opening, but where am I? I look at my body, I realize that I'm wearing clothes that aren't mine, a T-shirt that shows my arms too much, and my torso is practically naked, in addition to a pair of shorts that expose my legs. The first reaction is to cover the body with the sheet. The person enters. Long hair, a tender smile on his face, stubble. My Alpha, Andrew.— Are you okay? he asks, comes over, sits next to me, and something in his worried expression startles me.I l
NOAHI go downstairs and follow the delicious aroma of coffee that comes out of Veronica's kitchen, who is sitting with a cup in her hand. Next to her in the picture is a boy with the same welcoming smile. He has the same dark skin as Veronica. He turns around the moment I step foot into the kitchen.— Hi, I'm Luke! — he says, standing up and extending his hand towards me. I smile back and try to smile as he smiles back.— Hi Luke, I'm Noah!— He's my son, Noah!— Veronica, have you seen Andrew? I woke up and he was gone...— He left early in the morning, accompanying my husband, in order to find out something about a young man you are looking for...— It's my brother, he was with us...— When did you have an accident? — She asks, but I don't remember saying that, maybe it was Andrew who told that.— Yeah.I answer and sit at the table next to Veronica and Luke, and enjoy the pancakes with strawberry jam. After having my coffee, we go to the living room, just the two of us.— Come on
NOAHWhen I open my eyes and around me I see the crystalline waters of Lagoa de Pedra. I squeeze Andrew's hand who still has his eyes closed.— Open your eyes, we're back, Andrew! — when she hears my voice, she does what I say.— Good, I think we can look for Balck now!— I think we'd better head to the territory, there we'll ask Duric's help to find Balck, I don't want to run the risk of stopping in another place, or another dimension!— I think you're exaggerating with this story of another dimension, but I have to agree with you!— Then let's go... — As soon as I speak, he takes my hand and we follow our path towards the main road that leads to the Petrified Forest.[...]When we finally see the entrance to the territory, before we can take another step, we are surprised by some soldiers who were hiding among the trees.— Stop, where are you going? — one of the soldiers asks, and I lower my hood, followed by Andrew. — Noah? Why are you here?— It's a long story! We need to talk to
NOAHWhen Duric talked about whether we had time to hear what he had to report, I already know that there are many stories, he loves to tell them. And as I expected, he always starts at the beginning since the foundation of Ascabaltt, and then goes on to talk about something like a kingdom with a huge population formed by men and women of Lycanthropic nature, divided between Alphas, Omegas and Betas.A Kingdom divided into four large State Cities, the first Venas, close to one of the branches of the Alerro River that surrounds the entire extensive territory of the other State Cities, was governed by thePrince Algor, from a noble lineage of very powerful and sensitive Betas. The way he talks about Algor makes me think they once had a romance. The second, Conrai is very close to the mountains of Ascabaltt, and was ruled by Duric himself and the most distant lineage of his family, they had an incredible intelligence for war strategies.The third Royal House is to the south and is called
