Final showdown 1Isak swallowed once. Twice. The portrait of uncertain fear as he lay chained on the metal table, terrified, Hades waiting for his answer.And then he said, his voice clear as day “When you finish breaking me apart for the day, how does it feel to know that you are still nothing?”She grinned. “Some fire left in you, it seems. Good.”He smiled back through the mask. “You were only given the oath for this. For me.Without me, you’re nothing. You’ll go back to being nothing. Less than nothing, from whatI’ve heard.” Hades fingers tightened around the flint.“Keep talking, Prince, you'll crawl after me soon”A rasping laugh broke from him. “The guards talk when you’re gone, you know. They forget I’m Wolf, too. Can hear like you.” Hades aid nothing.“At least they agree with me on one front. You’re spineless. Have to tie up people to hurt them because it makes you feel like a woman, you're
The final showdown 2The Wolf kings walked beside her, and the thousands of soldiers that they had been able to gather in such a small period was impressive indeed. But they won’t be enough. She had heard of the thousands of soldiers standing guard at Purisca, ready to be unleashed at the final words of Kera Asgorn, and demon soldiers and creatures might actually get onto their world, but for some reason she was not afraid.Neither were any of them afraid, Dante, nor Asher, defying the odds like they always did, one last battle, one last rite to fulfill, and maybe, just maybe they might get to see him again.And the army matched forward, day and night.Benny Blanco and Rowan Mikhail led the group of warriors, as they sojourned on their journey to Asgorn, the Northern coast, the place where the ripple of power had come from, he had hoped the Queen had listened to his message, and no walloped in her grief, of a missing son.Whilst they passed through these fore
The final showdown part 3 Blanco’s breath was a steady rasp in his throat as he charged through the lines of demon soldiers, screaming ringing out around him, Rowan swinging beside him. Nearby, cutting a swath through masses, Dante and the king of the south fought. Soldiers swarmed, but he hadn’t seen the Queen. Then it happened, the demon soldier had gotten the better of him, he had been too late to react, and the demon reached for its sword, fatigue had set in, the demon’s head falling to the ground, as Aelin Bellamere, stood before him,“Too sloppy, human.”, her eyes unto him,“What changed your mind.”, he said, “A certain Queen did.”, her eyes backwards, to Queen Olivia EmmaThe Queen’s cavalry shoved the demons back, and above them, wolves and wyverns clashed.Beasts, feathered and scaled, crashed to the earth.Still Elon fought above the queen, guarding her from the demons who spotted that white banner as good as a banner amid the sea of
P.S: Dear readers, we've come to the end of this book. I'm happy we both have come a long way and I'll appreciate if you could leave a comment in the comments section for this book. I'm not asking for too much but your rating will go a long way too. Thank you. **** Blanco had fought until the enemy soldier before him had slumped to his knees as if dead. But the man, a black ring on his finger, was not dead at all. Only the demon inside him. And when soldiers of countless coasts began to cheer, when word spread that a prince, no he wasn’t a Prince anymore, the King who was promised, had defeated Kera, Blanco simply turned from the battlements.He found him by scent alone. Even in death, the scent lingered, a path that he followed through the wrecked streets and throngs of celebrating, weeping people.Rowan Mikhail smiled at his bleeding heart, and he had seen him first as Blanco ran to his friend’s side,“Don’t die on me!”, h
I could hear the sounds of their jaws ripping into some flesh and I gripped my mother harder, pushing against her skin. “Mum, I'm scared. Please. Are we safe?”My boyfriend, Liam, was at my side, and he gave me a quick squeeze, shaking his head. My mother went quiet, and I stalled my breathing, hoping that if we breathed quieter, we wouldn't be found. It was wishful thinking, and I guess that somewhere deep down, I knew it, but it wasn't till we heard wood splintering before I realized. I said a prayer to the moon goddess, hoping that I had heard wrong, but my boyfriend tore open the back door and crawled into the rainy darkness.“Babe. Please, Let's go. Once you're out, we'll get your mum and dad, we need to get to the bunker. We'll be safe. You heard the distress signal, didn't you? We need to get up.”“Olivia. Please listen to him. The longer we are here, the faster they will find us. They will hurt you. I love you too much to let you stay here. Leave right now.”I could hear the
Throughout my birthday, and the three weeks that followed, the pack and I worked to clean up our home. It was our tradition to cremate the bodies of our kin when they died to give them an easy passage to the afterlife, and so we spent that day gathering up their bodies and bathing them, so they could be wrapped respectfully in cloth. I had helped to pick up the bodies of every other family, but I just couldn't do it for mine. I couldn't look at my father, or what was left of him, and even worse, I couldn't deal with the idea that my mother, who had hugged me, and held me, and loved me so powerfully to her last breath was dead. Liam was my strong tower in all of it. He helped me carry out my duties, picking up broken up floorboards, picking off wood from the floors on the homes we visited, and having my back, throughout. When I fell ill from the sheer stress and exhaustion, he didn't force me to be strong, or tell me any of the motivational bullshit that everyone was used to feeding
It was the morning of his 21st birthday when my entire world fell apart. I had stayed up all night to wish Liam a happy birthday. I had baked a cake at a neighbor's house to surprise him, and I had also called a few of our friends in the pack together to wish him a happy birthday. At 7 in the morning, I had gotten everyone over for the big surprise, and they had all came out. They came in with handmade birthday cards, the little kids all gave him hugs and gifts, things that warmed my heart. Everything was going well, and everyone dispersed for the day, and I said thank you by the door, thanking everyone for their time and their love.He had some business in our newly constructed town hall, so I waved him off for the day, remembering that the second surprise would be happening there, and I would be heading the crew to crown him as our Alpha. I worked along with everyone else and after dressing the little kids up, I went ahead to take a shower and prepare myself for his party, so I lo
The next day, a meeting was called at the pack hall, made mandatory for all the pack members to attend, and even though I had just lost my partner, I knew that Alpha Liam deserved the title, and the respect. I made the deliberate effort to arrive there early, avoiding the glances of everyone by wearing a black dress and a black hoodie. A few people saw me, but they understood that I needed time to myself, and they let me be, going ahead to get seats in front. I sat at the back and kept my head down, feeling it in my heart the moment that Liam walked up the aisle with Anne trailing behind him. I bit my tongue to avoid a sob choking out of my throat, and I slid down even lower in the seat when they arrived at the front. This was his first official address as the Alpha, so I got up and applauded with everyone else when he arrived at his place on the podium. I sat down as quickly as I could, and he walked forward to address all of us. I looked at his face, the man that had become my wh
