“Well!!! Are you going to answer me??” I shouted, I don’t normally do this but due to seeing them exchange that look like they’re definitely hiding something and clearly weren’t going to say anything. My outburst caused Ryder to squeeze my hand to try to calm me a little, but this just frustrated me more as I felt I was the last to know a big secret.“Aurora, please forgive us for not telling you about Delphine, we didn’t know if she was behind the mind tricks or if it was someone else, this has changed since you’ve seen her in a vision at the coven.” Julius said in a whisper, I instantly felt bad at shouting as he has been nothing but a father figure since mine had passed away.“I thought she had lost all her power when the moon goddess took it away over two hundred years ago, I’m not sure how powerful she is anymore or what magic she has been using.” Simone added, she was shaking her head in disbelief.“Maybe we should start from the beginning of her history to the last time we saw
Jade POVI’ve finally got my own back for now, I feel like it should be soo much more as this bitch had it coming to her, I was shocked when Delphine said that we had to bring her back but no harm was to come to her in the process made feel a little sad cause I wanted so much to beat her into oblivion, yet I wasn’t going to fight her on this.“We’ve brought her back and she’s in the cells like you wanted, my dark majesty!” I said bowing to her, this was so damn degrading as I was a queen and what was she.“You did well Jade, nothing happened to her?” She questioned me raising an eyebrow, she is clearly on to the fact I hate her, or she is guessing.“No, after I was the distraction Tyler came up and stuck her with the wolfsbane to silence her wolf so we could bring her back.” I told her.“This is great news; indeed, you may leave me now!” She dismissed, waving me out of the throne room, I bowed as I left through the double doors heading towards our room.As I entered the bedroom, I jus
Aurora POVWhat happened to me? Where am I? My head is banging right now! I was just running through everything that happened this morning, but nothing was coming to mind right now, I knew the last person I saw before blacking out was Jade then there was a burning sensation, but I don’t remember anything after that. I had started to open my eyes and it took several attempts to get used to not being able to see anything as it was just pitch black everywhere, which made the tears flow that I had been holding back as it was then I knew I had been taken to somewhere I might not been able to get out from by myself and need to be rescued, but the problem was no one knew where I currently was or that I was missing.‘Saph, Saph are you there?’ I called in my mind link, there was no response. Whatever caused that horrible burning sensation must have done something to her, then it clicked of what substance it must have been to block out my wolf…..wolfsbane. I’m currently on my own so maybe I sh
I couldn’t believe it or maybe I didn’t want to believe this evil woman has just turned around to say she is my mother like some kind of soap opera style dramatic reveal, but on top of that she was the one who had my father killed or she killed him why did she do that.“I don’t believe you! My father told me my mother died giving birth to me. How can you be my mother? Why are you saying all of this? Why did you kill my father?” I shouted at her with tears running down my face which clearly just caused her more pleasure at this sight, I never want to be related to this monster.“You don’t have to believe me but it’s the truth and I killed your father as he had taken you away into hiding to prevent me from using you for my ritual, I need your power to help me get my powers back and kill the moon goddess. That is all I need you for! Tyler remove her from my sight!” She yelled at both of us.“Yes, my dark majesty.” He replied to her as he bowed low, before grabbing hold of my arm to pull
Ryder POVThis has been the best news that we’ve been able to locate Jade to where she decided to take Aurora, Simone had a half grin and half worried look on her face as this to her seemed very suspicious that she had been camped out in this meadow for the last two days but unable to find anything what so ever but now she has been able to find a very fresh scent of Jade.“Ryder this is great that we’ve been able to locate something that can lead us to Aurora, I just feel like this is possibly a trap and we need a plan before we go charging in.” Simone warned, she wasn’t the only one who had that feeling.“Yes, as much as I want to go racing off, I’m going to agree with you that we need a plan. I think we should head back to the castle to talk to Kitana and Poppy in private as there could well be some spies around.” I replied in a small whisper to hide our next steps. This Delphine person has been four steps in front of us and we’ve been playing catch up, she either has spies surround
Aurora POVI’m confused with how Tyler is currently treating me, he started off being cold and distant to possibly help with the whole Delphine’s pet thing but now he is different like he is trying to get in my good books or something like that. I don’t mind having a friend in this strange place as everyone avoids me like the plague or barely talks to me unless they have to, Jade and Darius are still hanging about very similar to a very bad smell that takes forever to get rid of, I thought they would have gone back to the castle now that I’m here or are they waiting for my so-called mother to gain her powers so she can help them….I think she’s going to drop them so fast once the ritual is completed and I can’t wait to see their faces.‘Aurora, can you hear me?’ Sapphire shouted out from the back of my mind, she’s definitely getting much stronger and closer to the front…..thank fuck as I’ve missed her so much.‘Hey Saph, I can hear you much clearer today? How are you doing?’ I beamed b
Ryder POVFinally, we’ve been able to formulate a good plan and have the element of surprise as well due to everything still being under wraps with no one knowing apart from myself, Simone, Kitana, Poppy and Flora. I advised that Poppy, Kitana and Flora stay home when we go in for the attack, but they’ve all told me that’s never going to happen due to it being a rescue attempt to get Aurora home, Xander has been bouncing around in my head so much more since we’ve made the decision to leave tomorrow early light to get there for the next day at dawn.‘Ryder, be warned that if this fails and we lose Aurora, I’m going to kill you myself understand!’ He threatened me for the millionth time this morning already.‘Xander, will you please stop its going to work and if it doesn’t then I’ll be ready to allow you to kill me, I wont live without her either.’ I replied, rubbing my temples with a headache coming on.‘You should have never let her out of your sights, I should stick my claws up your
Aurora POVI shot up from what I thought was another nightmare about Ryder like the one I’ve had before, this though felt very different as it was pleasant, and we had been so close to each other enough for me to feel him on my fingertips when I reached out for him. I hope he got my message for him to come and save me from this nightmare as I’m getting worried at the thought of when the ritual will be happening as Tyler has been giving me cryptic messages about hiding my power now Sapphire had returned.‘I think it has something to do with my full power possibly?’ Sapphire added, she was getting just as anxious as me. I didn’t want to lose her again.‘You could be right Saph but I’m not sure on how reliable Tyler can be? He is her pet after all!’ I mumbled back to her, as much as I want to believe him it was so hard as I’m still unaware of why he has started to help me.‘Did you get any information from his Lycan when you spoke to him?’ I asked, hoping to have something to lead me on
