Chapter 100
Chapter 100
I awaken in the middle of the night and take a long shower. Magnus is sleeping soundly. I decide to
venture outside to shift, allowing my wolf to run free. Reaper is asleep in the moon tree. As I ready
myself to run, I feel warm sparks gliding down my spine. Alec is standing beside me, gently caressing
the fur down my back as I turn my head.
You are a lovely wolf, he murmurs and kneels, and I rest my head on his lap while he pats me even
more. ‘May I join you on your run?’ he inquires.
Inod and dash through the trees. Alec follows. I can’t believe I have my blood flame beside me. After all
these years, he must feel relieved to be free of the dungeon. We sprint up the mountain and stop for a
rest at the summit. I shift to my human state and lie in the grass. Alec approaches me, hovers over me,
and locks his gaze with mine. Everything is perfect. My hand reaches out to brush across Alec’s cheek.
I draw his face closer to mine, and we kiss and make love passionately in the moonlight.
My head and hand are resting on his chest, and we are both staring at the moon. He caresses my arm,
and we remain in this position for a short while.
Alec grins as he stands.
‘What is it?’ | ask.
‘There is something I have always wanted to do with you, he says.
‘What is that?’ | ask.
He takes my hand in his to assist me in standing. ‘I want to dance with you under the stars right now,
he says.
His eyes flicker like a flame, and his gaze is filled with love and affection. I give a nod. He puts one
hand around my waist and lifts the other, and we begin to waltz. I’m overcome with zeal and zest, and I
can’t help but smile shyly at Alec.
‘I love you, Nina, he smiles.
I love you as well, Alec,’ I whisper.
Alec intensifies the waltz till we can’t dance any longer. I giggle, and he laughs until we are both out of
breath
The sun will shortly rise.’ I smile, ‘We should go back to the packhouse since I know you dislike the
day.’
As long as I’m with you, the day isn’t that horrible, he grins.
We travel down the hill holding hands. I come to a halt as I notice all the shadowy figures hidden amid
the trees.
Come and meet your Queen!’ Alec shouts.
Several dozen Vampires emerge from the trees and bow in front of us. They then approach and kiss
Alec’s hand, followed by mine.
‘Where did they come from, and where will they stay?’ | ask.
‘They have been hiding in many places away from people and supernatural beings, awaiting my return.
They will stay close to me now that I am back, most likely here in these forests. Thus enabling them to
continue serving me in the manner they did hundreds of years ago
Then I’d like to extend a warm welcome to Shadow Crest! I say to them all. They nod, smile, and bow
in unison. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
As we make our way back to the packhouse, we hear the distant noises of helicopters and jets.
Everyone exits the packhouse to investigate the sounds.
‘They discovered us! But, how?’ I panic,
Magnus mind-links the entire pack to get themselves ready to defend our territory Our town is rocked
by explosions. We turn to find a bomb has destroyed many houses. Other planes continue to fly above
and release additional bombs, Soldiers in their hundreds approach, armed
Vadva uses his abilities to keep them at bay with fireballs, while the witches and I use our spells
against them, ‘Repeliate!’ I yell.
sending a dozen troops into a brick wall. ‘Tremendous Nebulous!’ May costs, and the oren suddenly
becomes hazy, making it difficult for the soldiers to see us.
Tumultuous Volley!’ I say, a large cloud appears, and lightning strikes repetitively. Alec screeches,
calling the vampires forth. They appear and help light the soldiers, but hundreds more arrive. Mord
bombs are dropped, destroying our whole village. Rubble and dust are strewn everywhere.
A tank is coming towards us, ‘Inferno Flamo!’ | yell. Amassive ray or lire slams into the yank,
completely engulling it in Mames. I feel my body beginning to weaken.
‘Reaper,’ I mind-link. ‘Where are you? I need your power,
Trying to evade being struck by gunshots and explosives,’he mind-links. ‘Incoming for landing,’ he says
as he crashes forcefully on my shoulder. His eyes blaze a brilliant white, and the black mist emanating
from his body drifts into mine.
‘Aqua Bedew!’ I yell. A tornado of water arises and rips its way through the army of troops, collapsing
into a river of water, sweeping away numerous men into the fields.
A dozen soldiers creep up behind Magnus as he battles against five other soldiers. ‘Repeliate!’ I shout,
and they fly away into the air
We are surrounded by destruction and death-a nearby soldier struggles for air. I kneel alongside him
and grab hold of his vest, pulling him up.
Tell me how you discovered we were here. How did you locate us?’
Tell me now, or I will end your life for you, I threaten the soldier.
He coughs out a small amount of blood.
A few werewolves from the wolf council survived. They were weak and on the verge of death when
they returned to human form. In exchange for sparing their lives, they revealed to us the exact location
of each pack on a map. Army units have already been dispatched to all areas, and the majority have
been annihilated. He says.
I take a step back in horror, ‘You’re trying to kill us all?’ I say with trepidation.
‘Of course. You are all a threat to humankind with your magic abilities and capabilities of shifting.’
‘You have to tell your men to stop, please,’ I beg.
He laughs, ‘Until you cease to exist, they will never stop’ he odds before collapsing. I take a step back
and look at Alec, Magnus, and the others. Tears stream down my cheeks.
‘He is right. The humans will never stop now that they know we exist,’ I cry. They have destroyed
Shadow Crest, and more military will arrive at any moment. We have two choices, stay and die or
relurn to Mysteria?’ I say
Mysteria?’ Everybody says.
I make a beeline towards the packhouse. Due to an explosion, the left side has been destroyed. I enter
my bedroom, retrieve my burlap sack, stuff it with a few spellbooks, and return outside with the book of
magical history in my arms.
‘I just finished reading this book a few weeks ago. It describes how supernatural beings originated from
another dimension, a world known as Mysteria. Thousands of years ago, a portal opened, allowing
humans to access Mysteria and supernatural beings to enter this world. When humans waged war in
Mysteria, the portal was closed, never 10 be reopened. They allowed the peaceful humans 10 stay but
forced the remainder to return to earth. This book demonstrates how to open and close the portal, I
say, handing the book to Kadva, who then passes it to Yiselda after reading it.
Do you believe we can open it?’ I ask them.
Yiselda carefully examines the page. ‘It takes a great deal of magic, Luna. Some of us may perish as a
result’
‘If we stay here, we will perish.’ I say.
Yiselda sets the open book flat on the ground and extends her hands.
All right, then, let’s do this. If we die, at the very least, we will be surrounded by loved ones, Yiselda
explains.
There is something I need to do first, Alec says, He opens the portal to Silverfay forest and summons
the Grimghouls and the Shadow Reapers. One by one, they jump through the portal and change back
into their pixie or elf forms. Once they have all relurned 10 Silverfay foresi, he closes the portal,
After all this time, all I had to do to change them back into their natural forms was to return them to
Silverfay forest,’ Yisleda growls.
Alec smirks and nods at her.
