Nesta’s POV: I stared dumbfounded at the Ulfric. The Freki was dead? Gone? It was enough to set the whole of Aetheria into chaos! What was the Ulfric doing, sitting there idly? He should be doing something to set things right. He- he should be going about appointing a new one! "Dead?" I whispered. "Murdered." Liberty said grimly. "He died saving me from a bloody dart." Raphael said as he raised his feral eyes to me. He looked like he was going to change forms but had himself in utter control. "It shouldn't have happened, the attack. Clearly, someone failed to do their job." He growled low. Every eye in the room turned to Liberty who looked like she was going to be sick. Her skin was ghastly pale and sweat beaded on her forehead. "That's horseshit." A smooth voice muttered into the silence of the room. I gaped at the indolent vampire as he clashed eyes with the Ulfric. "She's the best royal guard I have ever seen, she couldn't have stopped the attack even if she tried to.

Devon straightened beside me. Silver is extremely harmful for werewolves, especially if injected into their bloodstream, it burns the blood vessels and causes a meltdown of internal organs. The brain stops functioning and renders the wolf incapable to breathe, arteries collapse and the heart shrinks if it survives the burns. Silver is a well known weakness of the wolves and is often used against them. It is banned in all the realms except the human realm."And you're telling me now?" I asked, scowling at the Ulfric. "I wanted to tell you but I got waylaid. I am telling you now. Find out who is responsible for these attacks. I am giving you one of my trusted warriors." He said. My eyes flared in anger and I took a few steps towards him before I felt Devon's hand on my wrist and stopped. "I don't need protection!" I hissed. "Of course you do, love." The Ulfric said and motioned for Liberty to go and stand beside me. "Since my nephew is also an agent and a very good one, I think he
The Beast And The Agent Chapter 23: One Small Dart
I looked at the small dart and winced, it was a bit unnerving to know that a thing as small as the dart could kill one of the strongest wolves in the realm. "This hollow space inside.. it's where the silver was filled." Ivan said as he held it up in his gloved hand. "Hold on." Xavier breathed out as Ivan started putting the dart back inside the glass box. "What?" Ivan frowned and we all watched as Xavier carelessly snatched the dart from Ivan's hand. "What the hell are you doing?" Ivan hissed at him which only made Xavier grin. "I am a vampire, Van. No amount of silver can burn my skin." He drawled and turned to examine the dart in his hand. "What do you see?" Liberty asked as she came over to stand behind him. "There's something inscribed on it." He whispered and his eyes sharpened into a bright blue as he squinted at it. "G.. N.. no.. it's an M. Yes. It's G.M." He frowned and I sighed in frustration. "Let me see." I said as I reached out to pull it out of his hand. "Nesta.
The Beast And The Agent Chapter 24: The Vampire And His Goddess
Xavier’s POV:We all watched Nesta and Devon walk out of the room. Liberty sighed behind me and the sound made me straighten as I turned to face her. "I should get back to the castle." She murmured wearily. "How about you go home and take some rest?" I asked her, noticing the dark smudges under her eyes. She looked tired. I could tell she hadn't slept a wink since the Freki's death after the ball. "No, I can't. I have to get back to Raphael with what Nesta found out about the dart and-" "Shh, darling. You are going home and you are going to have a good rest, Raphael can wait till morning." I said to her, trying not to sound too pressing. She blinked at my face for a few seconds and then her shoulders loosened, a small tiny smile creeping up her lips transforming her whole face, my heart slammed into my chest at how lovely she looked just now, her moss green eyes flashed a little and then she straightened. "But I don't have a ride home." she mused as she turned away from me. "You
The Beast And The Agent Chapter 25: The Attack
Nesta’s POV:I traced a small spiral in the dust sitting on the car's half open window, my thoughts scattered everywhere. Devon was buying food at the store but I doubted he would get anything worth eating or not expired at that dingy place. The town was a ghost town, only a few bikes were around, covered in dust and a few battered cottages along with a small Inn named ‘shadow peak’ and of course the 'dingy' old store. I sighed and got out of the car, banging the door shut behind me. It was midafternoon and the sun was being its typical blazing self.Dusty roads, dingy shops, battered cottages, creepy guys and blazing heat. Nesta Rivera, welcome to the Midlands. I laughed at my thoughts and winced as I felt the trickle of sweat down my back. "Get into the car." Devon said as he walked towards me, his leather jacket draped over his arm and a small smear of blood marking his cheekbone. I frowned and looked into his eyes. Damn. "What happened?!" I exclaimed, looking at his face, tryin
The Beast And The Agent Chapter 26: Hide And Seek
"We need a room." I said to the receptionist- a teenager as soon as I entered the motel. It was a shabby place with a dimly lit reception area, walls covered in torn brown wallpaper and shredded patches on the green carpet which also was marked by numerous black footprints leading in and out of the main door. "Look, we're all booked tonight and-”I snarled, making him sputter and stop altogether as I pointed my 9mm at his head. "Get me a room." I said more softly this time and watched as he stumbled out of his rickety old chair, throwing a key at my feet as he ran out of the front door. I sighed and picked up the keys, holding my gun in my hand as I exited the glass doors to bring Devon inside. I dragged him somehow up the stairs and into a dimly lit corridor which reeked of goblins, vampires and what not. I wrinkled my nose and tightened my arm around Devon's waist. "Let's just find our room." I murmured to the barely awake and standing Devon. He grunted and I quickly moved us
The Beast And The Agent Chapter 27: Blood And Horror
Nesta’s POV:I woke up to the sound of the front door opening. "Devon?" I croaked out sleepily, my hands clutching the sheets, but he was already gone. The door was shut and the side of the bed where he had slept was empty. I cursed as I jumped out of the bed and pulled out the gun from under it, where I had slipped it last night. I opened the door and dashed out, my bare feet landing on the scuffed carpet as I padded down it and noticed a faint orange light illuminating the staircase. It was dawn and where the hell was Devon going out at this time of the morning? My feet moved silently down the stairs, the gun still held securely in my outstretched arm. I rushed down faster as I caught his scent and burst into the crowded hall below. My nose wrinkled as I tried not to gag, the room was stifling with creatures of night who bustled about for their breakfast. A terrible crash sounded from somewhere from the room and my back stiffened in alarm as I heard a loud whistle just behind m
The Beast And The Agent Chapter 28: Burning Desire
Nesta’s POV:I eyed the smooth golden of his skin as he raised his shirt to show me the now nonexistent 'cut'. It had healed completely and only smooth skin existed where an angry gaping wound was supposed to be. "Well, good to know that you're back to normal." I muttered as I walked beside him. He gave a soft laugh and turned to stare at me. "What?" I asked awkwardly as I felt his stare. "You're not wearing a shirt." He whispered. And suddenly I was much too aware of my state of nakedness. I blushed and looked away from him as we walked down the woods. "I wasn't wearing a shirt since last night." I snapped at him and he just stared back. "You were burning down my flesh with a stinging hot knife last night." He said and shrugged. I stopped and just looked down at my bare toes, my heart squeezed at that memory and what had happened afterwards, what he had revealed to me about himself and how he had pushed me away as I had tried to offer comfort. "I am sorry." I whispered, not
