As I sat in Nova's room, I began to recall what I saw while she cast a spell around the room that would prevent anyone else from hearing what was being said. And so I started:" That day, after you called me Avila, I fainted and found myself in a different reality. It felt as if I opened my eyes but where I found myself was a bit strange, yet familiar. I saw myself in what looked like a battlefield. But this wasn’t just any battlefield it was one I’ve seen before. What didn’t make sense about this sight before me was that I’d never been in any battle before so how is this familiar to me? There were thousands of people lying on the floor dead and a woman was standing in the center with a man behind her. She had red hair and her eyes were green, she was dressed in golden armor and as she walked past the dead bodies, the wind blew her long thick hair back, making her Aura and presence so intimidating and powerful as she walked. The two of them walked past the dead bodies until they go
Kayla 's POV" Nova, you're scaring me," I said as I watched her cover her face in her palms. So what if he made her show me too much? Why is that such a bad thing?" Kayla, you have to go," she said, getting up from where she sat and pacing up and down the room. " What do you mean by I have to go? Where would I go?" I asked, feeling afraid and very upset by her words. She of all people knows that there is no way I can just leave like that. Especially because I don't know anyone. " I don't know Kayla...I just have this very horrible feeling that they are coming after you right now as we speak" she said, grabbing me by my shoulders as she spoke. Her eyes were desperately begging me to act on her words but she made no sense to me! There was absolutely no way that I would leave everything I have here just because of a nameless and faceless enemy." How do you even know this? Is just a bad feeling right?"" No Kayla! This isn't just some bad feeling - this is the worst! I know this becau
Hector's POVI was so mad at myself for infuriating Kayla. I should've approached the matter differently instead of trying to make her forget about it just by seducing her. Honestly, I didn't know what I did that was so bad. I love her that's something I've never once held back on telling her yet she didn't seem to understand that that was the reason why I couldn't tell her about Aidan. If you love someone, wouldn't you do all within your power to make sure that you never lose them? That was why I never told her that Aidan never really rejected her. Besides, she acted as if I had known about this for months when it was barely even a week. " Hello?" I said, picking up the call that I'd been avoiding while I was thinking about this Kayla situation. " What is it?" I asked when I answered the call. " It's the men who just crossed the fog barrier"" Okay?" " They're not one of us. "" Of course they're not, they're literally from another pack, Caleb"" No, they're not even from any of
Hector's POV "There's no way you truly expect me to listen to that, Nova you're bleeding...I can smell you dying." I said as I watched Nova wince in pain while she sat up to convince me to search for Kayla. " And I never got to show you your dew." She said, as though she was certain she would die. " I guess...I probably never will be able to. I don't have enough blood in me to do magic" she said and coughed violently. Seeing her like this broke my heart. Since I was a boy she raised me to see her only as our leader - Our Rogue town leader. Only the elderly who survived the first attack on Rogues knew that she was a sorceress, I didn't know until a year ago. It wasn't as if Rogues had anything against her that they weren't allowed to know about her, rather it was because she was believed to be the only one alive and had to be preserved, but from what I am seeing these men under this strange Alpha called Drey are working with someone who didn't just dabble in dark magic for fun.
Hector's POV" I said no!" Nova said for the thousandth time." My time has come okay? Do you think I want to die? I don't! But I'm too badly injured and -"" - if you were meant to die you'd have died a long time ago, you've been bleeding for forty-five minutes. I think the universe is keeping you alive so that I can do something I was born with. This isn't black magic "" You don't even know how you would go about it," she said after sitting in silence for a while, knowing that I was right about her dying a long time ago if that was what the goddess wanted." I do," I said, yanking off my locket and showing it to her." So what's the spell for this one huh?" She asked sarcastically but I just smiled at her and placed it on the part of her stomach where she was bleeding. As far as I was concerned, it would seem to me that even if I didn't do anything, she would still live - but as a woman who bleeds continuously. I know that sounds stupid but something about Nova made me feel like sh
Hector's POVThe way my heart started to beat violently, my eyes started to itch because they were changing color, and my body became so hot that I knew that if I don't calm myself, I would turn in front of all the surviving Rogues. None of them have seen me turn and I intended on keeping it that way. But how could I when Aidan just said the last thing I expected to hear him say?How can Sapphire be dead? How?!I took in deep breaths and my claws started to grow out from my fingers. Aidan soon realize that what was happening was a result of what he told me. He suddenly looked worried even though he had been furious with me for how I neglected everyone and only thought of Nova because I believed only she could save Kayla." Shit...I didn't know you'd react like this, I'm sorry." He started to say as I suppressed growls that were dying to fill the room, growls of anguish. I couldn't make a sound or the others would enter the room and I will for sure turn right in front of them." Hector
Kayla's POVI woke up in a dark room, feeling so cold and my hand stinging because I had been cut with a knife there. I couldn't see a thing but I could tell that I wasn't in my normal environment. Something was wrong. My head felt so heavy and when I tried to think of what happened to me, I could only remember bits and pieces of it. Like, I could remember being in Nova's room, I was telling her something at one point then... someone cut my hand with a knife and I must've fainted and now I'm here? Since it didn't make sense, I tried to think harder but became overwhelmed with pain. My head hurt so much that it felt as if someone slammed a bat against my head. I started to yell when the pain became unbearable. " She's awake! Shh!" I heard a woman's voice say. I winced and closed my eyes because someone abruptly opened what I believed to be the door to whatever prison this was. " Bring her out" I heard a man say, while I lay on the ground, still groaning in anguish and holding my ac
Hector's POV I watched as Sapphire slept peacefully like a child. Her wounds were healing and she was starting to breathe steadily unlike when I first used my magic on her, she was gasping so violently as if she was fighting for air but now she's okay. I had taken her to her room and was watching her and thinking to myself, this is how Sapphire would've died and I wouldn't have her with me anymore? This is how I would've talked about her in past tense? I ran my hands through my hair and wondered deeply about how I got into this mess in the first place. Was there anything I could've done to prevent it? And if there was, why didn't I do anything? Deep down, I knew that I could've done things differently and I knew the reason why I didn't - Kayla. As much as I love Kayla and wanted nothing more than to protect her, I've never been able to love her without pushing others away. If I could, I would've been able to save them a lot of trouble. The minute I heard all those screaming, I s
