Her body was stiff and numb as she sucked in a breath of cold the moment she regained consciousness..It was a dream but it felt so real.When someone hand touched her cheeks, out of instinct Annah tried to pry herself away from his clutches but he was too strong for her.Fear gripped her heart when she felt his breath on her neck as his hand around her body held her tightly but then she heard his voice.."Relax, it's me ..." Nicklaus kept repeating these words into her ear with a sense of helplessness."You're safe. It's me, I'm here.." Annah didn't realize the man who was holding her until she heard his voice as he switched on the bed lamp and his face came into light. She stopped her attempt to hit him.It was Nicklaus beside her. Everything was fine, it was only a dream."It's only a Nightmare." Nicklaus was chanting that word over and over again until she became calm.Her bright eyes scanned her surroundings immediately. She wasn't in a dark place where she couldn't see anything

It was only a matter of time before he found the real aggressor, but he thought he could save his time by confronting the dragon Lord directly...The only Matter was the dragon lord was more stubborn than the last time they met..."Tell him what he needs to know please!" Lillard whimpered as he looked at his brother with pleading eyes...They were the only royal blood left and if Nicklaus was gonna kill Christopher then Lillard would rather die as well...The responsibility for being the most extinct creature wasn't something a coward like him could bear..Christopher had spoiled him so much until he lost Lillard's identity as the prideful creature.."Say something, brother!" Lillard was trembling.Nicklaus stared at the bloody scene with a nonchalant expression..A low growl escaped his lips as he stared at the brothers with a look of dissatisfaction..He wanted to sort out this issue as soon as possible so he could go back to the mansion with Annah...His thoughts kept running to

"I won't hesitate to kill you should anything happen to her!" Christopher barked as his Golden eyes turned red with anger..However the stranger chuckled heartily as he stared at Christopher with eyes filled with nothing but ridicule..."You can't kill what's not alive, my friend.." he tilted his head as he scrutinized Christopher with an amused expression...Christopher clenched his jaw tightly as his veins bulged out with pressure.."I know Nicklaus was here with his mate... Can you tell everything I need to know?" "Do you really think Nicklaus will ever have a mate? The Greys are being condescended to never have a mate.." Christopher scornfully said."Oh dear, you know nothing about the ways of the guardian.." the man lazily walked towards Christopher but didn't try to attack him.."She's quite fickle..." "She's indeed his mate.." Lillard suddenly spoke up after being silent for sometime.."What did you say?" Christopher suddenly retracted his claws as he stared at his brother

Aaliyah was the last pure scarlet witch alive..."Did you come willingly or because I'd someone look for you?" Elias swiftly changed the topic before both sisters got into a fight."You mean that pathetic wolf?" Aaliyah clicked her tongue.."You should go pick him up in the dark forest... Sending such a loser after me was a mistake, you know?" She nonchalantly spoke.."What did you do to him?" Raphael asked.. Based on his encounter with Celine, no one would end up in a good shape if they managed to get on the bad side of a witch.."Nothing...." Aaliyah shrugged her shoulders while grinning from ear to ear..However, nothing meant everything..The wolf would definitely be in some trouble.."Leave..." Nicklaus growled..He was irritated with their noise...Upon hearing the irrigation in Nicklaus's voice, Elias quickly ushered Raphael and Celine outta the ward while mumbling to the Gamma.."We need to send someone to go get Stephan.." After the soft click that indicates it was only t

"What's on your mind?" Nicklaus trailed his thumb on her beautiful eyes as she stared at him absentmindedly.Nicklaus was currently cuddling, lying down with her on the couch by the floor to ceiling window while staring at the drizzle rain outside, fogging their view from the city below.It was around 2;45pm in the afternoon but the gloomy cloud didn't let a ray of sunlight pierce through.Thunder and lightning appeared at the furthest side of the sky, behind a tall building giving an ominous feeling..Annah curled up in his comfort while he adjusted the blanket around her..It was the moment Nicklaus hoped time would stop for a while and let him relish his mate's presence for a bit longer..Nothing else matters to him. He'd instructed Elias to take care of things involving the hostile takeover of the dragon shifter's properties..Annah used his arm as a pillow while Nicklaus played with her hair, one of the things he loved doing whenever he was around her..."I haven't seen Elias and
