A loud sigh left her lips. Eve leans her back on the big tree at the meadow, the only one standing mightily in the corner of the flower field. Peace was what she was looking for yet her head was wrecked with so many things that seems to bother her peace of mind.

After her talk with Khalid, if she can call it a ‘talk, panic overtook her whole nerve system and she was too nauseous to eat her breakfast. How can she eat when her future was in jeopardy? Instead, Eve sneak to the same meadow and had send a letter to Adam using Marion to meet her there. Seeing someone had already known about their meetings and that particular ‘someone’ is definitely on the ‘against’ side, they have to think of a plan fast.

Her body was shivering continuously since her conversation with Khalid and it’s bad especially with her being a direct descendant of the ice Goddess. How can the cold affects her when her blood contains the essence of it power? It would only mean one thing; it was a sign. A warning of something bad going to happens to her soon. Meeting Adam is vital for both of their sakes or else her biggest fear may be realised.

When a sudden rustling from the bushes caught her ear, Eve turns to its direction and a loud sigh of relief took over her whole body. Not to mention a wide smile as well. Adam runs pas the bushes, panting and his face was a mask of concern. He was rushing towards Eve wearing his lose white shirt and black pants. His hair was a mess and he too seem tired.

Eve rushes to his embrace and hold him tightly to her chest. Having him this close to her chest felt so good. Even the problems wrecking her head was slowly receding and it would be good if those problems could just disappear at that point.

She broke their hugs and kissed like their life depends on it. Once they broke their kiss, Eve stares into his eyes, panting from the force of his kiss and says to him.

“Adam, there… there is something you need to know.”

He seemed to be distracted by the after sensation of the kiss that he was smiling and panting at the same time. “What, my love? I read the letter and, huh. You got to admit. It sounds bad and I was so worried. What is it?”

She fidgeted with her finger. She didn’t know what to say exactly. “I..uhm..I..I think..”

He held both of her arms and move on of his hand to gently grip he rchin with his fingers. He stare deeply into her icy blue eyes and asked her with a

faint smile. “What, love? Tell me? You can do it, Eve.”

She bit her lip as she looks at him and groaned frustratingly. “Khalid…you know, my personal guard? He knows about us, Adam. I think he’s going to tell my parents.”

“What?” His face becomes pale and he cup his forehead to calm his pounding head.

“Are you sure?” He asked, taking a strong gulp and it felt like a huge rock just slammed on top of his head when she nodded.

Adam has heard about him from Eve. Even the people at home knew about the strong creature. General Khalid that is famous for his sword skill. His loyalty to the royal family and hatred for the wolves due to their history. Oh, if he truly knows about them than it’s obvious that he wouldn’t allow the two of them to be together. Even bad, if this news got to his father, he would be a goner for sure!

Nevertheless, it wasn’t his main concern at that moment. When he turned to look at Eve, her face looks so frightened that he felt guilty for selfishly thinking only about himself. A plan, he has none at that moment but for now, he has to do something quick to avoid the third Great War from happening.

He walks up to her small body and hold her closer to his chest. Eve made a sharp gasp when she felt his hold around her tightens. His chin rested on top of her head and he even sway their body gently from left to right, just so he can calm her down.

“Look, love. Look at me, okay? You told me that you trust me remember? Then, I need you to listen. We’ll_”

“Stay away from my daughter your filthy beast!” A loud cry from behind Eve made her eyes widen. She knows the voice so well and whose it belongs to. She slowly turned around after breaking her hug from Adam and turned, shivering as she looks up to the one who called her. She can feel her heart drops to the ground.

Her parents, her dearest mama and papa, the king and queen of Zhatiera had showed up with a big group of Zhatierians guard. All with a deadly look in their eyes as their gaze was locked on the werewolf prince. As if things couldn’t get worst as it is right now, her judgment betrays her greatly.

Growls, loud, raw, angry and a crowd of them came from Adam side of the forest and a huge man, bigger than the creatures around him, surrounded by pure werewolves was ready to attack. It was without a doubt that the man in the middle was the leader. He has a long gash over his left eye. Scars painted his body and his left arm was covered by tribal tattoos. She knows his identity very well just by the stories Adam has told her before. Even from afar she can recognise him with ease.

King Adam Sviatoslavich II was fuming. Rage boils inside of him to see his blood son, future of Dzhimara and King of Werewolves was holding hands with their old enemies. Eve can feel her hand was moving so when she looks down, she sees that it was Adam’s hand that was shivering and she looks up to him, shock to see the frighten look in his eyes as Adam stares back at his father.

He feared him.

King Adam moves closer towards them, causing Adam to stagger back but still making sure Eve was still holding his hand. HE shoved her behind his back, never lose sight of his father every movement. Even when face with fear, Adam still tries to defend her. His sudden approach made King Aidan moves closer and held out a long diamond sword while Adam’s father hold a silver sword to his. Adam’s father was aggravated.

“This is where you were all this time, boy? Behind my back, shagging the enemy? I never knew you were this brave, going against my order. You looking for a death wish, son?” His voice was calm but it has a menacing tone in it.

Aidan’s gaze thins out on Adam’s father. Anger pulsing in his vein. Eve starts to become emotional seeing these two about to fight. How can Adam and her be together if their family hates each other this much?

“Papa, please let him go. I don’t want to see anyone get hurt, Please? Don’t do this.” She pleaded to King Aidan and though her voice was soft, the silence of the meadow carries her voice to both sides.

“Stay out of this, Eve!” Aidan raises his voice. Very much infuriates with his daughter but still keeping his eyes at King Adam. He was too dangerous not to observed.

“But father..” Sobs was slowly wrecking Eve’s voice.

“Return to your mother, now!” King Aidan cuts her angrily.

Eve gasped loudly and sucked in deep breath. She stares back at Adam and he had the same fear in his eyes. She tried to move but his hold was tight. Adam refuses to let her go and he shook his head slowly, asking her not to go. Tears brim in her eyes as she turns back to her parents.

“Papa, mama. I love him. I can’t let him go, please.”

Both King Aidan and Queen Aaliyah looks upset. The betrayal in their expression was enough to make eve looks down in shame and disappointment. More wolves gather behind King Adam while other Zhatierians knight including Khalid showed up, moving further to the front to protect their king.

“Son, you come back here now or I will make you watch me rip that witch and make you bleed with her.” King Adam growled with his fangs protruding from his mouth and eye glowing with anger.

“I love her father, she’s my mate. Don’t do this to us. Just let us leave. We won’t bother you anymore. Any of you.” Adam replied to his father.

King Adam’s face was red with rage and he gave a loud roar, making Aidan and his knight becoming more guarded with their magic while others have their sword, swirling with their magic to strengthen their attacks.

In a second, dozens of wolves from behind King Adam launched themselves towards Eve and Adam but one by one ended up thrown back to the trees, behind them or on each other. Their tummy had white spot, frozen marks forming from the Zhatierians magic.

Some of the wolves even launched itself on some of the knights while King Adam, attacks King Aidan. Queen Aaliyah was surrounded by some of the knights and taken away to a tree nearby while other Zhatierians knight defend themselves.

King Adam had a grin on his face as he fights, throwing insult after insult at King Aidan but he was undeterred and continue to fight without using his gift. When many are already wounded, Adam and Eve could not bear to see blood dripping down the face of their soldiers. With a heavy hard, they release each other’s hold and both ran to their parents accordingly, hugging their backs and pleaded them to stop. King Aidan took he opportunity to pulls Eve so she would face him and force a strong grip on both of her shoulder. She grimaced from the painful hold.

“Is this what you want? To see your people, die while protecting this beast? Is this worth it, Eve?” He yelled at her.

Eve’s gasped, her tears wouldn’t stop falling. Adam was holding his father that is adamant to get his claws on King Aidan. Eve and him turned to each other with Eve shaking her head. “None of this is worth it, my love.”

Adam looks shock.

“What? Eve no… you can’t…no…” Adam continue to calls out to her but Eve can only cry and shook her head.

“I am so sorry, Adam.” Her heart almost ripped out form her chest just by saying that.

“Eve? Eve! Eve! Don’t do this, Eve!”

Adam again calls out to her but Eve spoke to her father the words she knew he would want to hear. As much as it hurts her, it was necessary.

“Let’s go home father. Please. Let’s just go.”
