LOGINChapter 112Freya“I just saw him at the reception..” Aurora’s shoulders dropped and I slowly turned towards the door. “Are you sure he’s the one you saw?” I asked and she nodded. “Yes, I was searching for Marcus to show him the witch’s talisman that Caelan’s assistant handed over to me and that’s when I saw him speaking to one of the nurses. The resemblance is uncanny, the only difference was that Caelan was laying in this room. So unless there’s a random person in this very random town that has a striking resemblance to Caelan and just happened to coincidentally be in this hospital, then I’m very sure that’s his brother..” Aurora explained but my brain was stuck on talisman. “Did you say witch’s talisman?” I asked and she nodded, holding a ripped piece in her hand. “That explains how he found us. The witch must be nearby too. The nerve of that man to actually show his filthy face here…” I groaned as I walked outside, ignoring Aurora’s warnings to be careful. I went straight to
Chapter 111AuroraI walked over to the ward directly after Caelan’s and met his assistant already awake. His head was wrapped with bandages and he looked pale. Who knows what he must have been put through before we even got there. “Hey..” I muttered as I moved closer to his bed, his eyes rolled over to my direction as a weak smile played on his lips. “Ma’am…” he muttered, trying to bow his head but I stopped him. “Don’t move. You need to recover first before anything else.” I said and he leaned back into his pillow. “I know it might be hard for you right now, but the earlier we make a move the better it’ll be for everyone. I need you to tell me everything that happened back there before we arrived. Anything at all that could help us find that witch..” He lowered his eyes, like he was hesitating and I knew it had something to do with why Caelan was there in the first place. “Daren?” I called out, “that’s your name right?” He nodded. “Good. Caelan is in a coma right now and the
Chapter 110FreyaI watched the nurses run around Caelan, trying to get him to at least regain consciousness but he remained still. I feared the worst. Tears filled my eyes but rage filled my heart. Each time I remembered how Lucian ordered the witch to carry on with the ritual despite being aware that whatever she was doing was killing his brother, I gritted my teeth in anger. Thirty minutes stretched past like forever and a nurse walked up to me, tray in hand and her eyes kept falling on my hands. “You’re going to lose a lot of blood if we don’t tend to this immediately..” she said. I glanced at my bleeding hand and rolled my eyes. I didn’t even remember I had pulled a cannula out from my hand. “Stop worrying about me and pay attention to the person who’s unresponsive..” I snapped, wiping the blood off on my shirt. “Don’t listen to a word she’s saying.” Aurora interrupted, storming towards me as she grabbed my hand and pulled me up from the chair. “Aurora I can’t leave here…”
Chapter 109AuroraIt wasn’t easy finding a hospital, but Marcus made a few calls as we drove around and we finally found a private hospital owned by one of his friends. Nurses stood outside as we drove in and three stretchers were rolled over to the side of the car and they helped us place Caelan, his assistant and Freya on them. “Careful please…” I muttered as they rushed into the hospital. Marcus held my hand as we both trudged behind, my eyes heavy with tears. “They’ll be fine..” he kept whispering every now and then. But I knew deep down they Freya would be fine. I just didn’t know what to think of Caelan and how Freya would feel when she regains consciousness and finds him in that state. None of us even know what happened to him or what ritual his assistant was speaking of. My chest rose and fell heavily, panic wrapping its cold hands around me. Marcus spoke to a few doctors and the way they responded to him made me wonder about the authority he had in this big hospital th

Chapter 42 Freya “I have to go, something has come up.” I said, my voice cracking. Caelan grabbed my hand before I could leave. Then suddenly he pulled me and my body smashed into his own. I did not prepare myself for the overwhelming smell of him—cedar and spice that suddenly wafted int
Chapter 41 Freya It’s been two days since I won the last assessment program but the council was still quiet about it. Lying in bed and staring at the ceiling, felt like each passing minute was eating away at my sanity. I’d barely seen or heard from Aurora these past days and I knew her family
Chapter 40 CaelanFreya won fair and square and to me, the meeting I was headed for so early in the morning was completely unnecessary. She should have been confirmed as the newest member of the council as soon as the Recruitment Program was completed. What more is there to talk about? Yet there
Chapter 38Freya“How is that possible? Are you sure you saw it correctly?” I asked in obvious disbelief, She nodded and for some reason she didn’t look too shocked about the situation. “To be frank, I expected it.” She sighed. “I didn’t really find the written examination that easy, my mind went
