登入Chapter 108FreyaI followed the scent and soon found myself at the top of the roof. “Good to see you, Lucian!” I growled and he whipped his head around, his eyes wide with surprise. I looked at his feet and saw Caelan, motionless. Something strong surged through my bloodstream and I clenched my fists until my knuckles went white. “What can a man do to get rid of all his obstacles?” Lucian groaned, rubbing his fingers through his hair. “Who is that and how did she get here?” The woman beside him asked, her eyes piercing into my soul like a hot dagger. Her face carried tears of darkness and evil and I could tell by just looking at her hideous eyes that she’s the witch everyone dreaded. “You call yourself the most powerful witch and yet you can’t see through this ordinary woman and find out who she is huh?” Lucian snapped as he walked towards me. “Well this is my dear brother’s lover. I’m glad you’re here, because we’ll be in need of that bastard you carry inside you..” he laughed
Chapter 107Aurora I could tell Freya was frightened but she just didn’t want to show it. I saw the fear in her eyes with each passing minute and it worried me. The car Marcus called for finally came and the driver handed the keys to him. “Good day sir..” he greeted softly, lowering his head in front of Marcus. “Do we get to take the car?” I asked, glancing at Marcus. “It’s mine, this is my driver..” he responded and my eyes widened. I didn’t know he had properties in this part of the world. This isn’t the time to start asking any questions so Freya and I got in, while Marcus slid into the driver’s seat. “The location?” He requested and I took the phone from Freya and handed it over to him. He glanced only once and immediately revved the engine. I held my best friend’s hands in mine and rubbed gently to give her some warmth because her hands were so cold. The drive wasn’t as long as I anticipated, mostly due to how fast Marcus was driving. As we approached a narrow path, I
Chapter 106FreyaWhile all of this was going on, my phone kept buzzing nonstop in my purse. I excused myself and quickly slipped out of the hall. I took my phone out of my purse and the endless notifications from Caelan stared back at me. “Caelan..” my voice trailed off as I tried to call but there was no signal. We both had this one signal we said we’d send to each other if either one of us was in trouble and I never thought we’d ever need it… or at least not him. But watching the light beep in my phone, I felt a pit in my stomach immediately. I checked his location but it just kept showing the same place he was last night. I rushed back into the hall, grabbed Marcus by the arm and dragged him outside. “I think Caelan is in danger..” my voice dropped and he lifted his brows. “What do you mean he’s in danger? Did he call?” “That’s the problem. I’ve been dropping texts since last night and up until now he still hasn’t responded or even called me back..” “Well maybe he’s busy,
Chapter 105FreyaAs the room emptied, I locked the door, went into the bathroom and turned the faucet on before dialing Marcus’ number. “Marcus, the ritual is about to start..” I said the moment it connected and I heard him sigh on the other end. “I don’t even need to ask why it’s being rushed. Just try to stall until I get there.” “How do I even stall the ritual?”“You’ll think of something, whatever you do just make sure the elders don’t finish their chant do you hear me?” He ordered and I hummed a yes. I got off the phone with Marcus and quickly headed to the hall for the ritual. Aurora sat beside Daniel as the elders chanted their prayers over them. Her eyes were dead and far away from what was going on around her. And of course Daniel couldn’t take time away from himself to notice her absent mindedness. I gritted my teeth as I found a chair closest to the exit. “We meet again..” a voice whispered softly behind me, warm air tickling the back of my neck. I didn’t need to tur
Chapter 98 Aurora Freya wasn’t going to say anything and even though I was too curious to let it go, I had to focus on a more pressing issue at the moment. After all of this is over, we’ll sit and talk about this one. As the cab pulled over in front of the estate, something dropped into my stomach heavily. I turned to Freya who was scrolling on her phone and as if she could feel what I felt, she lifted her head. “What’s the matter honey?” Her soft voice echoed and I groaned. “Nothing, Freya. I’m just glad I snapped out of that delusion of mine before it was already too late” Freya smiled warmly, ran her thumb across my cheek and said nothing afterwards. We got down from the cab, I handed him his payment and we strolled into the estate like nothing happened. I played my part as the anticipating bride, smiling and giggling at everything despite the fire burning in my chest. “There she is..” Daniel’s voice echoed from a corner. I took a deep breath before lifting my eyes to
Chapter 101 Aurora The night drew closer and my heart pounded in my chest but I reassured myself that nothing would go wrong. The cameras were in place, Freya was on standby while Marcus kept tabs. As for Caelan, I haven’t heard from him since we parted at the florist’s store. I already freshened up and my night robe trailed behind me as I paced slowly from one end of the room to the other. Daniel was still speaking with some people I didn’t recognize outside but I already dropped a text that we needed to talk and I knew he’d rush in any moment from now. My phone buzzed and I jerked, almost jumping out of my skin. I rolled my eyes and walked over to the table where the phone lay. Freya’s name lit up the screen and I glanced at the door before picking it up. “Hey..” I muttered “How’s it going? Is he there yet?” She asked and I rolled my eyes “Freya, you think if Daniel was in here I’d take this call to tell you whether or not he is?” I shot back impatiently. “Right… yo
