Chapter 30: A Glimpse of Hope
Aurora's POV: My heart is shredded into pieces as I watch my poor Aria leave the tower. She is too young and innocent. She did not deserve to live a life of being hunted and hated. All I have to do now is pray that she would make it to Clarren and have a chance to live a normal life as I promised to her parents. "I know it's hard to let go, but it's for the future's sake. If it makes you feel better, I will tell you one of my visions," Erythaea softly speaks. She leans closer to me and whispers in my ear. "You will meet her again here in this place before she reaches her eighteenth birthday. Let this be our little secret." My heart was filled and overflowed with joy knowing that I would meet her again. It means the Djinn will succeed in his mission. All my fears and worries washed away. I just need to focus on my final wish. "I still have one more wish," I said to her.

Chapter 31: Second Wish
Aria's POV: I couldn't believe that Dylan was the one responsible for the death of my grandma. I keep my head down and couldn't look him in the eyes for I am ashamed of myself for causing all of this. If it wasn't for me, my grandma wouldn't be forced to make those wishes. I saw Dylan staring at me in disbelief. Is he thinking the same thing? I never expected that our paths had crossed before. Could it be fate and am I destined to be with him? So many questions are bombarded inside my head and all of these revelations are creating more confusion rather than clarity. "Aria, I didn't know and I don't remember anything. Please believe me," he desperately said to me trying to explain. He must be afraid that I would hate him for being the Djinn and for taking my grandma's life. I don't know how to react, and I can't utter a single word. "You have to believe him, my ch

Chapter 32: The Covenant
Dylan's POV: Flashes of memories came rushing in on me like adrenalin pumped into my system after I granted Aria's second wish. Everything happens so fast, and all of my memories became so clear as if they were only yesterday. Flashback six years ago... I remembered when I took Aria away from the tower and was riding at the back of my hellhound. She was trembling in so much fear her body went cold with dread. She was holding onto my arms so tightly that she must have forgotten that I was a demon. Suddenly, we heard thunder not too far from us and flashes of lightning that almost hits the ground. A huge formation of black clouds coming in our direction and that only means one thing, we are being followed and he is on his way to get her. I decided that it was better for us to travel on foot. My hellhound has a distinct force that when it e

Chapter 33: Till we meet again
Dylan's POV: "I know how to defeat the Demon King" Aria seriously said. She must have remembered everything about her past and how she was able to defeat Barbas. "You cannot use that power again," I strongly advise her. "You almost got killed the last time you used it," and reminded her. "But Dylan, that's the only way I can defeat my enemies. It is riskier if the demon inside me took control over my body," she worriedly said. To be honest, she is somehow right. The demon inside her was too powerful, and she is finding it hard to control it, while she can control the power of the light but the problem is that her body cannot withstand its enormous power. "She possesses the power of light and darkness but is unable to control it," Erythaea said. "Your body cannot withstand the power of the light because you no longer have

Chapter 34: Book of Spells
Aria's POV: I watch Dylan leave the room. Now that everyone is gone, I'm left with a broken heart and dry tears. I need to stay strong for everyone's sake. I swore to my parents and my grandma that I would set things right and make them proud of me. That's what I'm going to do. I will end this war between the two realms. "Let's go Aria. I will show you something," Erythaea spoke softly. She walks ahead of me, and I just followed her wherever she leads me. I noticed that we are heading toward the lower ground of the tower and I couldn't tell how far deep we are. All I know is that we've been walking for almost an hour going down to our destination. The more we go down the darker it gets. The temperature is rising and our lungs are full of moist air, making water vapor come out of our mouths. "It's freezing out here," I utter with a trembling voice. Although I'm sweating like a pig, my

Chapter 35: Dominion part 1
Aria's POV: Power corrupts innocent minds and can lead to a path to our destruction. It's neither good nor bad, but it depends on whoever wields it. With proper knowledge and guidance, our power can do good things with others. There are no limits to what we can accomplish with greater strength. But note this nothing is permanent in this world and that even our power has its end. Erythaea led me to another part of the tower. We remain quiet while walking to our next destination. I was too tired and exhausted to say a word. I just wanted to go on and proceed to my next task. We went to an empty white room with nothing on it except for an altar. "You will start your training in this room," she said to me with a blank expression while we wander around the room. "This is the heart of the tower, and I want you to give life to this room." she casually said but in a demanding way. "How am I

Chapter 36: Dominion part 2
Aria's POV: Some people have no idea how beautiful the darkness is. Don't be afraid of the dark but fear what is lurking within it. We all have our dark side but don't ever let it control us, instead, learn how to turn on our light. "I see that you've been talking behind my back," a deep-toned voice spoke with me telepathically. Achlys' voice is older and louder compared to Lucy's. She is calm and subtle. I felt the hairs on the back of my neck stand up with his presence, but I try to remain calm and keep my composure. "Don't get too over-sensitive. I was just asking about you since I haven't felt your presence earlier," I said in my defense, and we started to converse telepathically. "I need your help. I want to learn more about you and your ability," I requested him. Although I feared him, it's undeniable that I also need him to defea

Chapter 37: The dark force
Dylan's POV: "Aria!" For some reason, I called out her name. All of a sudden, I felt something weird. A perpetual feeling that something bad is about to happen. There is a feeling of grief, fur-lined with fear that joy has forever escaped inside me. There is tightness in my chest, and it makes the air feel like razor blades moving through me so that I could barely breathe. "What is wrong with me?" I confusedly said then I noticed the tears falling from my cheeks, and I was sobbing inexplicably in the middle of my daily training. Fugly is kind enough to volunteer to teach me how to fight. He is one of the best warriors in the demon world and ever since I returned from the tower, he has been training me every day. While Aria is working hard to control her powers, I will work hard too to overcome my weakness. I need to learn how to fight on hand to hand combat.

Chapter 38: What makes us human
Dylan's POV: "The fate of humanity is depending on you and all that you ever think about is a birthday present to the most dangerous creature that ever lived on the face of the earth?" Erythaea furiously said to me. "Missy would be very disappointed if she found out that I forgot her birthday," I simply ignore Erythaea's rant towards me. "Do you think she would ever forgive me if she found out that I have no gift prepared for her?" I continued and stare blankly into space trying to collect my thoughts. "None of that will matter if we are all dead. Will you focus on the bigger issue?" I know she is pissed by now and yet she is still acting cool. "Of course, the world comes first. I'm still trying to get used to being a human. All of these thoughts are getting inside my head and all of the emotions are drowning me," I explained to her. "If there's anyone who can br

Chapter 39: Priceless
Dylan's POV: It's been a week since the incident. Aria became weak after exhausting herself from fighting against her dark power. I carried her down the mountain, and Freya teleports us back to the Silent Willow forest. Erythaea also informed us that the black hole in the training room disappeared at the same time she turns back to her normal self. Everything is under control, for now. We are taking this precious time for Aria to recuperate and prepare for the worst that is about to happen. I am sure that the underworld is making preparations as well to attack the earth. Aria locked herself and never left the room ever since we return from the fortress. I was on my way to her room to bring her food to eat when I bump into Oslec in the corridor. "It's been a week, and she is still locked in her room," I said with a sad grimace. Fugly placed his hand over my should
