A loud creak of the open door resounded in the entire room, which made every one’s gaze move towards it.

Chapter 25 POV: Aeron Darkwood Somewhere in the middle of the dark woods. A loud whimper echoed in the middle of the dark forest, followed by a painful growl – making the birds fly away from their own resting nests and breaking the deafening silence of the night. Dark red blood splattered the ground and painted the wild grass and weeds. The entire place was terrifying and perilous at just one glance. A man with no left arm was slowly breathing and sniveling due to the agony he felt. He already knew that he would face his tragic end today. He knew he wouldn’t have another chance at proving his worth and loyalty. He would face his disastrous demise without any sign and confidence.

Chapter 28 POV: King Hades Pierce Everything was a total mess! The moment she saw Tamara in her state, she was already hardly breathing. Her face was pale, but something in her arm had caught his eyes. He gritted his teeth and clenched his hands before he started walking back and forth towards the small office – Doc Dreyson’s office, to be exact.

He heaved a deep dreadful sigh the moment their eyes met.

She gritted her teeth and hunched her back, then forth while lying in her bed. After a few moments, she was burning with fever that her eyes went to the back of her head. Her canines bared and she growled in both frustration and pain – making Kage and Dreyson more nervous and scared of what was happening to her. The good thing was it only lasted for about fifteen minutes, and she was now peacefully sleeping. But the chaotic feeling Tamara arose a while ago inside their mind and the raucous emotions they felt was to the moon. Kage harshly combed his hair with his hands while his other hand rested on his waist.

They were having their sumptuous dinner while they were waiting for Elder Courdamus from his meeting with the King and the Were Elders’ Council.
