Chapter 24: Inclining Heart
Rowan was refusing to let me train or letting me know the reason behind it. He is so difficult to understand. It felt like he was more worried about something else than my training or fast growing powers. As accepted, he didn’t tell me what he had planned to tackle because of me.
He promised and said he would look after me. The moment I opened my eyes, I saw his uneasiness about having me as a mate, but it wasn’t me. He was surprised, but didn’t hate me; I felt like he hates the word mate more than having one.
Orson taught me some basics, as I was thinking it was magic, but it wasn’t. It was my aura which manipulated the surroundings, as I was an elementalist, the one who could control elements.
I was awed by the fact of knowing far
Chapter 25: A Battle To WinAylin’s POV,A scream left me at the sudden jerk of the car, threshing me over the window. My head was about to hit, but Rowan filled me in his arms, securing me, taking all the impact.“Dammit.” Rowan cussed, tightening his hold over me. The car was spinning rapidly, making it difficult to breathe. Droplets of sweats were dripping from my forehead at the thought of getting attacked. Flashes of the previous one crossed my mind, with screams of Tae and a pool of blood. All spine trembling things were running across my head.“Don’t worry, I am here.” He stated, keeping one hand behind my head, and pressed me over his chest. I was scared at the thought of an unidentified attack, but Rowan’s he
Chapter 26: Wrong Decision “Aylin, do nothing.” Orson screamed from behind, shaking his head in dizziness. Blood was dripping from his head, painting everything red in its path. I was about to run towards him, but the deadly growl of Rowan staggered me, and I fell. He was warning me, forbidden from moving. He threw the head of the vampire away and rushed over to him. He jumped on that vampire, pinning him to the ground with his paws on his chest. Before he could do anything, Rowan detached his head from the lower body, breaking his neck. I balanced myself getting up, but before I could take another step towards them, something grasped my arm and I got jerked back on the hard, icy platform. I realized I had turned their victory into failure when one vampire caged my neck around his arm, squeezing my li
Chapter 27: Life At Steak Rowan’s Pov, Something wet dripped from my eyes on her gorgeous but pale cheeks. It looked like a teardrop to me. My Aylin had closed her eyes and wasn’t opening at my request. The sound of her pure beating heart was holding me sane in this dark world, where I found nothing fruitful anymore. “Waylen, speed up.” I said in my weirdly calm tone while removing the dirt from her bruised arm. “I am. We will be there shortly.” “Don’t worry, Rowan.” Orson’s comfort didn’t work on my wounded heart. “She needs to be treated as quickly as possible. I can’t bear her in such a condition
Chapter 28: An Announcement For New BeginningI was watching her calm but pale face. She was awfully silent for me. Her constant chatting with Orson or her arrogant answers weren’t mingled in air. It was strange. She was in front of me, yet I was missing her.Nurse had changed her clothes to a simple dress bandaging her shoulder with medicines which we don’t think are going to effect, but I will try everything for her.Watching my mate laying motionless was a painful thing. This was a fear I had never experienced before.I was used to the emptiness sprawling over my life, but the unending silence brought by her closed eyes was becoming unbearable for me. The constant fear of losing her pushed me and my wolf on a cliff.I sat beside her and took her icy hands in mine, kissing a few times desperately. Her temperature was dropping steadily, taking my heart with them.She
Chapter 29: A Cure of My HeartDark clouds had covered the sky, gazing at the window searching my peace on no moon night. I tightened my arms around her shivering body to warm her up while laying on the bed with her. Droplets of sweat were showering me in the intense heat of the fireplace.With every beat of our heart, I prayed for the moon goddess to help her hold on longer. The tightness of the chest was scaring me, the fear of losing her was about to consume me whole, but her sudden heavy sigh brought me back to life.I turned her head to face me. Her rosy complexion had turned to snow. Her cherry lips had tinted with purple one, not able to control myself; I pecked her soft cheeks once, reminding myself of the words of the Orson.My tired body sinks into sleep, watching her face, hoping she will open her gorgeous eyes once again for me. Please, have some patience dear, I will bring y
Chapter 30: Uncovering The CoveredI was hesitant to leave her alone after witnessing her going under attack. Her stable condition was enough, but my heart wasn’t giving permission to do so.A constant fear of losing her had invaded my inner mind. There wasn’t anyone whom I trusted her with. Orson and Waylen needed at the meeting, or they could have accompanied her.“You may go.” I turned to hear my aunt. The maid bowed her head while standing at the door. I thought aunt went into her chamber.“Aunt? What are you doing here?” She walked closer, glancing at Aylin with a tired smile, and sat beside her.“Son, our Luna is exquisite.” She complemented turning her head from my chest to see her properly.She was always warm to me, but I wasn’t welcomed with any warmth in my life except this fragile creature sleeping in my arms.
Chapter 31: Oil In FireHe cowered back at the corner, hearing my growl. How dare he bring my mate into this mess? I clutched his neck and hurled him over the wall. A loud scream interrupted the ruling calmness of the cellar.“No, No… I am telling you the truth. Ask that fae, is her aura golden or not?” He said in scooting away, and my steps halted at the mention of Orson.I glanced at him, who turned his face away from me while nodding at empty, making everyone understood the meaning of his unspoken words. She had a golden aura.Waylen walked towards him, dragging him back from the corner, holding his face. I approached the open window standing in front of it and inhaled the cool breeze.I don’
Chapter 32: My First Kiss Aylin’s POV, The feeling of getting squeezed broke my unending darkness. My entire body was as heavy as stone, making it difficult to move. The soothing sound of birds was ringing in my ears. I opened my eyes to witness the calmness of the world, Rowan was deep asleep. He was holding me tight over his chest. His breathing was serene but the creases over his forehead mirroring his stress. His worried face reminded me of the attack in the forest. We were returning to Avarland and rogues attacked with the pain erupting in my shoulder. I groaned at my sudden realization of a severe wound. He startled and fastened his hold over me. “Too tight, Rowan.” He was watching me panic. His breathing was
