Anna's POV

"How did James get out?" Nicholas dropped another question to answer me.

"We don't even know if he had help. What are you doing, Nicholas?" I became a bit worried as I couldn't understand what was going to be our fate.

"What the hell is wrong with you Nicholas, you have just screwed everything up!" York whined and retreated to a corner of the basement.

"My own problem is, how are we going to get out of this basement?" I asked, smiling as I still had faith in him to rescue us from this fate.

"If James got help to escape, we will also get help!" Nicholas' sarcasm was clear to me but as I didn't want to argue, I said nothing.

Suddenly, the trapdoor was pulled up.

"He is already on the run, he's bleeding but we have to be fast if we don't want to lose him!" Alice beckoned to us and Nicholas was the first to hurry out of the basement.

Thinking that Alice would be angry at Nicholas when they met next, I was surprised to see them having no grudge against each other.

    Anna's POV "I have been studying the demon family for a while, and I think I have found a loop already. The one you are going to kill is Margaretta's mother's ex-husband." Sturbridge nodded as if he was trying to confirm that within himself. "Margaretta's mother's ex-husband? How am I going to find him?" I didn't even want to think about it to avoid giving myself a headache. "Yes. I don't know much so you will have to find out more by yourself. You will go alone and you can't come back unless you fulfil your mission," Sturbridge seemed to be making it harder for me. "That's Noelle. Noelle was Margaretta's mother," Nicholas finally revealed after being silent for a while. "So you named me after her?" I didn't know maybe I should be happy or sad to know that. "This is just not traveling to the past, it's transmigration. Let me know if you agree to do this. I will find how to get you in there." The expression on Sturbridge's face was not clear to me. I didn't know whether he wante

    Anna's POV With all the men under our reach, all the ones we could get, Nicholas, Sturbridge, and I camped on Flaming Hill waiting for the invincible army. As James had already taken my hair strand, it was no longer under maybe but a fact that I was the main target of the invincible army. They wouldn't stop until they got rid of me. "How close are they?" Nicholas asked Sturbridge who had just come back from scouting with some of the gammas. "They will be here soon, but I think..." Sturbridge was visibly panicking with his voice shaking. "What's wrong?" I asked worriedly but I still tried to hide my anxiety. "They are faster than we thought, they would be here before we get the sand to you!" he finally explained, gulping hard with his eyes glaring guiltily as if he had betrayed me. "Even with our men holding the line?" I questioned. That was actually our last resort but it seemed we couldn't wait before giving out our all in this fight. "That's literally a waste of our men, wh

    Anna's POV Before the end of the meeting and the altercation between me and Alice, I was already feeling my lower body twitching everytime I beheld Nicholas' eyes. It seemed like he got the clue as he kept beaming me smile Immediately as the meeting ended, we found ourselves in the main chamber making out intensely. I wanted him badly, like I would die if I couldn't get him all over me in the next couple of minutes. His eyes were also burning with passion as we were making out and the intensity to devour each other kept increasing. "We have to stop!" He suddenly held me away from his body. "We can't do this!" His face was filled with sadness that I had never seen on his face before. "Why not? I still love you as always. What happened few days ago, that was just my mind getting clouded by anger!" I heaved impatiently and grabbed him again to continue but his reluctance seemed to be turning me off. "It's about the possession, you were partly possessed and making love right now m

    Anna's POV After reconciling with Nicholas, we held a meeting with York and Alice as suggested by Sturbridge and Nicholas. To avoid James knowing about it, Nicholas made sure he convinced and brought Alice and York down to my Fort instead of going to the lair. "Now that he has her hair, his next step would be to kill!" Alice proclaimed without caring about my presence and my feelings. "And that must not happen!" Nicholas made his hand into a fist, breathing heavily. It was obvious that Alice had made him angrier by saying that. "You know the way to stop him, help us stop him," Sturbridge added softly as if he was at their mercy. I didn't know why it was so hard for me to get on with the duo especially Alice. Looking at them as they appeared as clueless as us on what to do to stop James, I felt like sending them out at once. "It's not that easy, sorcerer," York shook his head and faced me. "But how did you let him get your hair?" he asked and I lost the little interest I had le

    Anna's POV It was the fifth day since I had come to this hill, living in the small hut made by my father when he was alive. Though it wasn't as luxurious as the Fort, the peace I was getting here made it satisfying. As Sturbridge had made it a daily routine to visit me, I was expecting him to come in, at any moment. I cherished the kind of peace I was having now and Sturbridge's presence was everything else I craved. The thought kept popping up in my heart; I couldn't deny it, but I tried stopping it from manifesting fully. "How have you been?" Sturbridge came in all of a sudden and a warm smile took over my face. "Aren't you a bit late today?" I asked with excitement as I got up to welcome him. The urge to hug him tight was strong in my heart but I held myself back as I stood in front of him. "I will make amends, my Lady!" he bowed slightly to ease the tension rising between us, and we stood there for minutes, while we just stared into each other's eyes. "I would like that,

    Anna's POV It was nothing but chaos as the guards chased the weird Sturbridge all over the Fort, but they couldn't catch him. I couldn't blame them. A part of me kept thinking that the Sturbridge that just came to me must have been James; he must have used the same spell he used on the man in the lair's basement on Sturbridge, too. I had just gotten back into the throne room when I heard Nicholas coming while chattering loudly with someone. I got up on my feet hurriedly as he walked in with Sturbridge. "Sturbridge? Is this the real you?" I asked while moving closer to him. "What do you mean he's the real one? Has someone else come here after I came?" Nicholas asked, his voice low and husky with his face looking worried. "It's me, my Lady! I'm so sorry for everything!" He bowed as he apologized. "Yes, someone has come here. He had Sturbridge's face but the way he kept addressing me while flirting with me sold him out!" I explained while staring at them both with confusion. "S
