SCARLET'S POVI was on the bed, staring at the ceiling, wondering if Elias was doing the same thing as me right now.Could he be tired of the rift as much as I was? Or should I just break it to him what he did, and hear out the excuse he would give.It's best to hear his words on that and to know what next to do, rather than avoiding him and the subject.Suddenly, I heard my door open. Carla rushed in, looking alarmed.“Did you hear?” She questioned, with her eyes almost popping out of their sockets.“About what?”“Our clan is currently in a war with the Lycans.” Carla informed me, and I shot up from the bed, and hurried over to the Lycans' kingdom.Carla and I got to the Lycans' kingdom and noticed that the war had ended. But most Lycans were down, and hurting.She didn't see Elias and wondered where he was until she asked one of the able warriors who was about to go and help some wounded warriors.“Please where is Elias?” she inquired, out of concern.If not because she was recogniz
SCARLET'S POVThe Great Masters looked really intimidating, and I could hardly keep eye contact with them as the power that flowed through their veins could snap me into two if I wasn't careful.I tried my best to calm my nerves down, so I would be able to concentrate on whatever I was here for.The Queen Mother didn't say they were going to hurt me, so I shouldn't be too scared, or I won't be able to leave here.“Y…yes, I came back. I… I felt kind of intimidated.” I explained, looking at them in fear, and hoping that my honesty would at least make them go easy on me.“We get that a lot. But you are the first to come in a short time. If you had come back in a long while, we could have decided to close your case.” The Great Wolf said, looking at me.I couldn't tell what reaction they had on their faces as they all wore a straight expression which baffled me.It meant I wouldn't know if they were angry or pleased.“So, what do you want?” The Great Vampire asked, resting his chin on his
SCARLET'S POV“Oh no! I didn't make it?” I said as I found myself back at the Great Masters' Abode.The little bottle had probably dissipated, since I wasn't able to get the child's tears. How certain am I that I can pass the others? Does it mean I'll be here for a few years? Oh, no! What did I get myself into?“Alright. I'll have that, thank you.” The Great Lycan said as he stretched his hands to my neck and dragged a necklace on my neck as it cut.“Ouch!” The necklace gave me a sting as it was dragged.To my surprise, the bottle was the necklace pendant. It had appeared on my neck in the form of a necklace, and it's pendant.I was overjoyed that I was able to get the teardrop for the Great Lycan.“You can now move on to the Great Wolf for your next task, except you want to stay stuck with me.” The Great Lycan said as the tiny teardrop went into his mouth like a ball.I immediately moved on to the Great Wolf who seemed to find pleasure in my fear. I was hoping his task wasn't going t
SCARLET'S POV“Welcome back. You are intelligent, you were able to get it without using my hint, which you weren't able to decipher.” The Great Wolf said, looking excited.He stretched his hand forward to me and them I gave him the eyeball which he asked for.He giggled and swallowed the eyeball. All these were scaring me. Why were they acting this way?“Very good. Now, you can move on to the next.” he instructed, with a scary voice.I moved over to the next person. I was sweating as I was hoping it won't be a hard task. Then he peered into my eyes and smiled.“All I need now is an iced cream from your world. I want it from those who sell on the roadside or streets. They have an iced cream stand. Soi, whichever one you want to get it from, you will see a customer ordering two, but another one would appear which only you can see, and it will be shuffled so fast. You have only one chance to pick the iced cream for ghosts. If you pick the wrong one, you'll fail.” he explained, with a smi
ELIAS' POVI found myself in a vast land with just one tree present, and the moon illuminated it's light on the land.The breeze caressed my skin and blew my hair gently. I scanned around, wondering if I was dead already.This place was serene and the only sound I could hear was like the sound of a rushing river.“Where could I be?” I muttered under my breath, still looking baffled, and wondering what I was meant to do.“You are right between life and death.” someone answered, and I glanced towards the direction of the voice.I discovered it was a man who looked like his skin was beginning to go white, out of cold. But then, that wasn't what was important right now.It seemed he knew about things around here and it was just best for me to know whatever was going on.“Between life and death? How do I go back to the world? I can't afford to die now.” I said to him, with pleading eyes.“You would have gone back, but even the antidote meant to cure you is not able to, for now, because the
ELIAS' POVI ducked and was able to dodge the venom and i growled as they attacked me full on.I fought the best i could but they had an advantage as they were stronger in numbers.Laura was able to take out many of them with the flaming sword in her hands but i had just my claws and I could only take them out when they were near.As I tried to take out the new ones that climbed over themselves to reach out to me, I felt something wrap around my neck and one more.Then I discovered some had come from behind and wrapped the snakes on their head round my neck.My hands flew to my neck and immediately i felt my legs roped together. I lost my balance and fell and then my hands were torn apart by more snakes roping themselves around me.I tried to fight but felt myself being dragged speedily and there was little i could do as more snakes kept on roping themselves around me.I watched as Laura fought bravely with her sword but the moment she noticed i was taken, she was distracted."Elias!"
SCARLET'S POVIt had been two days since Elias had been unconscious. The antidote had only worked to an extent, and the royal physician had told us that the only thing we could do was to wait and hope for him to wake.And any day from now, the second war could start, and without Elias, it would really tell that he was absent.He has his role that he plays here, and no one could replace him.“Scarlet, are you thinking deeply again?” Carla asked, looking at me with concern.We had been given accomodation in the Lycan Kingdom currently, and not a day passed by when I didn't check on Elias about twenty times, wishing that I would meet him awake.“I really need him to wake up. I want us to settle things. His family needs him, and I also need him too.” I sobbed, and buried my head in Carla's chest.“He will wake up soon. I believe so.” Carla assured me, trying to make me feel better.Then the King and a two guards walked in. The sad, but determined look on his face as he stared at Elias mad
ELIAS POVMy eyelids fluttered open slowly, and I gazed up at the familiar ceiling of my room.My body was weak, and I found it hard to move, but I wasn't bothered because I knew I was going to heal in no time.At first, I couldn't recollect what had happened, but when my eyes fell on a pair of toy soldiers in a corner, the memory returned sharply to my mind.There was the war, and the Royal Crest Pack warriors had shot me with wolfsbane with a weapon they had made.But, apart from that, there had been a dream I had. A strange dream where I had gone on a long journey with that lady called Laura.The details kept on flowing into my mind, and I could not recall ever having a dream that was as detailed as that.Finally, my head turned, and it was then I noticed Scarlet.She was sitting on a stool next to my bed, and her head was on my bed.Asleep she was, yet still so beautiful. She was in an uncomfortable position, but she had chosen to stay.Was she ready to talk to me? I worried that s
