"Twenty-seven, Twenty-eight... Twenty-nine, " Lilac counted in a low voice as she continued to watch Johnathan in his zoned-out stage. She wondered where he was now. was he seeing a vision again. she couldn't help but worry even though it hadn't even been up to a minute. He had warned her not to touch him when he was like this, so she wouldn't get drawn into his visions like in the past, but it was hard to overlook. Her cell phone rang, gaining her attention, and she immediately picked it up and saw that it was a call from Devon. "What do you want?" Lilac said in a kind of harsh voice. she knew anytime he called something was happening or something was about to happen. most times, it wasn't good things, but things that would only increase her worries... She got up from beside Johnathan and walked away so she wouldn't disturb him. "I just called to ask if you have any idea where Diana might be?" "No, I don't know where she is. Does anyone ever know where she is? what is going on? D
"I came here to see if you were okay," Lilac said in a low voice, her eyes on Johnathan. Why did he keep looking at her this way? "Your Highness," Johnathan said, and Lilac became even more concerned. "Johnathan, " She said, his name softly, and took a step closer to him. This only made him take a step backwards away from her. why was he acting this way? "Did something happen here? I was worried about you. " Lilac was getting concerned now. He felt unfamiliar and not like her Johnathan. It scared her... He took a step towards her, and Lilac was the one to take a step away from him now. "You are not my Johnathan," she muttered, wondering what had happened. He looked just as confused as she was..."How did you get here?" Johnathan asked, and Lilac shook her head, unsure of if she should tell him. Johnathan ran his hand through his hair, slowly realising what was happening. "Am I your mate?" He asked, and Lilac became even more scared and confused. "What did you do with Johnathan?" Lilac
Liam and Joan sat at the back of her house, her head on his shoulder. it was almost sundown, and the last twenty-four hours had been the best time of Joan's life. it felt like a dream... A dream that she never wanted to wake up from. they were finally together and They loved each other... And they were always going to be together. she chose to black out what was to come and the danger that may arise at any time... She just wanted to enjoy the moment while it lasted... "What should we have for dinner?" Joan said in a low voice and tilted her head to look at Liam. he had a warm smile on his face, and it was well contagious because she smiled too... "Anything you want," Liam answered, and she nodded. Anything she wanted... "I'm not hungry. are you?" Joan replied. Even though she was a bit hungry, she lied because she just wanted to stay like this for a few minutes more... "No, I'm not." She wasn't the only one who liked this position. "Do you want to go for a walk then?" Liam added,
"Asleep?" Devon said in disbelief, and Lilith nodded. "Yes, she is asleep. it might just be a reaction to her powers because of the baby... She is fine. you don't have to worry, Alpha, " the healer assured him again, and Devon finally sighed in relief. Everyone left his room, and he lay beside Alice and soothingly touched her face. "You scared me there," He muttered and planted a tender kiss on her forehead and then on her bump. The baby would be here soon. He couldn't wait to meet their tiny one. The thought of it brought a smile to his face. A warm one... Devon was about to get up from the bed so he wouldn't disturb her when he got something similar to a static mind link. Someone was trying to get through to him. but he couldn't hear the person. That meant the person was far away or wasn't close enough. He got off the bed and headed to the door, but he stopped in his tracks he heard his name through the mind Link. [Devon! Are you there?] Devon recognised the voice immediately. It w
Liam finally arrived at the pack with Joan placed safely at his back. Devon and two of his men with Lilith were outside waiting for him. They gently helped him place Joan off his back and then take her upstairs of the room Devon had prepared for them. [She will be fine] Devon mindlinked Liam and the wolf Growled. Devon handed him a new pair of clothes and went into the house to wait for him. "How is she?" He asked Lilith, and the healer looked at him, confused at the phenomenon that was happening all of a sudden. "She is fine. just like the Luna. She is asleep. nothing is wrong with her, " She answered. The children of the prophecy always fascinated her. "If they are both this way, then what about Johnathan?" Lilith said, Devon was already wondering the same things as soon as Liam arrived. "How is she?" Liam said as she walked into the room. his eyes on his mate. "She is fine," Lilith told him to. Liam walked to the edge of her bed and sat down beside her. his eyes filled with worry.
"Start all over again till you get it right," Hazel said and turned away. Her hand glided across the big wooden shelf in front of her till it stopped on a book that piqued her interest. she took it out, and a smile formed on her face. "I found it, you can stop." She brought out the book and placed it on the table in front of her. "This looks nothing like the book." Gemma, a dark witch who stayed with coraline, said. Her eyes scan the normal looking book. "How long have you been using forbidden magic?" Hazel asked as she opened the book, the smile on her face widening. "Many years now. why do you ask?" . " I can sense it coming from the book," Hazel answered... The book was blank, and this only made Gemma more confused than she already was. "But there are not writing. no spells, " She complained, and Hazel chuckled a bit. "Yes, there is. but you can't see it yet. " Hazel stretched her hand and gestured for Gemma to hand her the dagger she always kept with her. Gemma slowly took out the
"Where are we now?" Alice asked as Joan helped her take a , under a tree. she was purely exhausted from walking and wanted to take a nap, , taking a nap wasn't advised in a situation like this. She preferred to rest a little,then they could continue their journey to who knows where. Maybe find someone to help. But they were in the past. "I don't know," Johnathan answered. He had travelled to his own past and wanted to use the opportunity to wander around. Maybe he could find something, and now they were lost in the past. "Do your powers work?" Lilac asked Alice, and she nodded. "Yes, it still works." They all looked up at Johnathan, and he nodded. "Okay, let me try again." He closed his eyes and tried to use his powers, and the next second, his eyes flew open. "It's working!" He exclaimed, and they all anticipated leaving this place. Lilac and joan helped Alice back up and stood close to Johnathan, ready to go back home. it felt like a whirlwind as they were slowly transported away fr
"Sometimes I think about seeing every day," Devon said and poured himself a drink. Liam sighed at the mention of his mother's name. He still thought about her, too. How could he forget what had happened. He was forced to become the king because of it. it still haunted his dreams at night. "If I had stayed that night, she would still he here. Father wouldn't have blamed himself for what happened, " Liam said, and Devon shook his head. "She would never think it was your fault. it was the dark witches. They were to blame, not you. Father just loved her too much, " Devon said. A sad smile appeared on his face when he remembered how much his father loved his mother. They were inseparable even after being together for so long. His father had been beyond distraught when he had returned to Palace and found out that the queen had passed away. He had blamed himself for it and slowly withered away. Liam, who was the eldest, had to step up and oversee the affairs of the Palace. He had no time to
