Missing
Thea:
As Darius was busy with some work, Thea was left with Max. She did not get to speak with him after she came to know that, he is her real brother considering the situation that he was adopted.
"Are you still angry with me" Max asked hesitantly.
I looked at him, he is looking at me with hope.
No, I am not angry at him. They are trying to protect me from my past. If I go by their words, I was there when my mother died. I don't remember anything. But my father said that situation triggered my memory loss.
So they don't want me to go through that rough path again.
"What's done cannot be undone. I don't know what happened then. But I cannot force you to remember something, which will hurt you. That must be the reason why your grandfather never forced you to remember that" my father said yesterday, when he confessed about his relationship with Catherine and Max.
"No Max, I am not angry. I forgot so much about our childhood. I wanted to

Althea Clue or trap
"Angel" Darius softly calls my name.I wake up from my restless sleep and blurry vision clears and I notice that we are still in his car."Are you alright?" he asked with a worried voice."You suddenly started crying in your sleep. I was worried" he explains why he had to wake me up."It's that dream" I whisper exhausted from the emotional rollercoaster.He looks at me with a blank face. Realization dawn's in his mind and now he looks curious."About Azzazal and Althea" he relaxes beside me and I lean completely on him resting my head on his chest.He holds me firmly glued to him and I breathe a little easier. Today has been eventful. My father's confession, a brother I forgot, and a missing friend."Azazzal has an evil younger brother" 'boom' his relaxed mood takes a 180."How do you know that" his question seems to be casual, but there is an underlying tension in his voice."He was molesting Althea, and Lucifer came and s

Melanie for whatever crazy reason, decided to stay with me after we came up.I started having my dinner after we came up."You had your dinner?" I ask Melanie who is standing beside the couch I am sitting on."I will eat later" she replies."Come, sit" I motion for the empty seat beside me."It's ok. I am fine" she replies politely.This girl is so calm, collected, and polite. Where is the arrogant girl gone who dragged me on the street implying that I was a thief?"It's ok. There is so much food here for me to eat alone, Come" I insist softly.She hesitates for a second before joining me.We start eating in comfortable silence. Only the sounds of cutlery can be heard.After a few minutes, a guard knocks on my door.We look at each other and she nods her head for me to stay.She went and answered the door."His highness told me to look at the message miss Althea received and check out th
Althea Is it really Amber
"I loved Max since the moment I saw him" she finally relented with my endless teasing."He came here after you and your mother were snatched away from them. He was always silent and would always concentrate on his own thing. He used to train from a very young age. He is two years older than me. I used to come to the royal pack often. My father is an Alpha of a pack nearby. I never used to like if my father brings me here. I never used to like their pack parties" she sighs deeply.She moves away from the couch and stood facing the lake."One day during these parties, I sneaked out. All the children were either too young or too old for me to play with them. I was 7 and he was 9years old. I came near this lake to play in the water. That's when I saw him. His back facing me. He stood there like a statue, so still and so beautiful. I was instantly drawn to him. I stood there and observed him for so long. But I couldn't muster the courage to approach him" she stops as

Darius povThis feels so surreal, I never thought I will come to the underworld ever again. But here I am, in the underworld. Once upon a time, this is my home. Everything began here. Now this place is nothing but a bad memory.This is the place that has so many memories of Althea and me together. Everything is the same.Nothing changed much. My room where Ornan killed her, has a black burned mark on the wall.I guess my father never bothered to clean it up. Out of all the rooms, this one feels untouched.They let it be the way I left it."Looking into your old memories" Lucifer is leaning against the door casually.But we both know what this room has seen. There's nothing casual about it. He is just trying to gauge my mood."Don't worry, not planning to destroy this place today" I say looking down into the hellfire or otherwise, called the pit."So you planned to do it in the future" he teases me
Althea Past in the present
"Think a little deeper your highness. Past, not your immediate past. Your last life" she hints looking at my inner turmoil."Why can't you tell me the name, my lady?" I ask her in confusion."There is much more going on behind you both, you only know about Althea and yourself," she is talking in riddles."I am not understanding my lady. My past life is not my life now. The Lord of the underworld then is now no more. I haven't seen ornan in the past 20 years. I killed so many innocents, I don't even remember them anymore. My past life is something that I am not very proud of. How will I know who is after my Angel?" I ask her with helplessness."This is simply not about you both King Darius. Do you know who am I?" She asks dodging my question."Of course, you are her mother" I answer immediately."It's not that simple king Darius" she says calmly."Please my lady, I never requested anyone in my life. Please tell me who is after my Angel

"Do you believe this is coincidental, that she came exactly at the same time that our pack gates were breached" Melanie asks me softly when I don't respond to her previous statement?I observe that Amber is not coming close to us. She is nowhere near the water. She is restless and shuffling here and there mindful of the water."Explain about this Mel" she is surprised that I used a nickname to call her. She recovers fast and nods her head. She earned my trust by this act of loyalty towards the pack."This lake is enchanted with magic. His highness himself constructed this structure in the middle of the lake for these kinds of threats. The entrance gates of the pack are enchanted too. If it detects someone entering forcefully inside the pack, it will alert the guards and there are structures like these around the pack. The people who the magic consider as a threat, will not let them enter into those structures" Mel explains patiently."Ambi, come to me" I requ
