“It is done,” Lady Yna announced and nced at me. She tossed the brassiere on Hale’s way like it
had cum on it, but the vampire lord just dly caught it mid-air and stuffed it back in his coat pocket.
When he showed the garment earlier to Serena, I caught a whiff of the murderer’s scent. She was right
to tell me this fae woman and the murderer-arsonist were the same. We shared the same anger and
we shared the same desire to kill her, but I was pretty sure Serena wanted a one-on-one with this
woman.
Returning my attention to the elder witch, she had already ced her hands on herp and took a long,
cleansing breath.
“When will she wake up, Lady Yna?” I asked whilst sitting down on Serena’s side. She looked
peaceful, almost having a death-like sleep. If her carotid pulse wasn’t visibly bounding then I would
have thought her to be dead.
“Minutes from now, I reckon. Probably as fast as you. Queen Serena is your mate after all. Not to
mention a hybrid,” she answered matter-of-a-factly.
Tenderly, I brushed my wife’s cheek.
“Then, I’ll stay here until she wakes up.”
Without peeling my eyes off of her, I turned my attention to Serena’s father who was still standing near
the threshold.
“General, escort our guests to the other room,” I instructed, still feeling anxious with Hale’s presence. I
knew I had nothing to worry about when it came to Serena’s attention. My anxiety was simply because
Hale was my natural enemy. I still didn’t think it was a wise idea to include him in this war, but I trusted
and respected Serena’s decision, so I allowed this in the end.
“Yes, Your Majesty,” General Halcynos lowered his head. Hale and Lady Yna followed him to the war
room while Elijah tossed me a short nod before following their footsteps.
Now that I was alone with my wife, I caressed her face more leisurely. I waited for her to stir and waited
for her eyes to open, however, ten minutes passed, and still, she showed no signs of waking.
I decided to connect with her telepathically, my wolf to her wolf, but I received no response. That’s
when I realized something was greatly wrong.
“Lady Yna!” my voice quickly boomed. “Inside, now!”
Not a second long, she entered with Elijah behind her.
“Something is not right. She is still not waking up,” I pointed out whilst holding her still-warm hand.
The witch’s forehead wrinkled.
“Let me check her,” she said and neared us. First, she touched Serena’s head, then she checked her
wrists. My eyes were glued to whatever the witch was doing, but then William’s voice resounded in my
head.
‘Your Majesty! The walls of Ehnrelil are lowering!’
‘Lowering?’ I mind-linked back.
‘Hundreds of thousands of fae army are visible, Your Majesty,’ General Halcynos inserted, surprisingly
already standing in the front line with Hale.
I smiled, the feeling of excitement and malice flooding inside me.
‘Geraden, is he with them?’ I asked.
′Yes, Your Majesty,′ both of them replied.
′Good,′ I nodded whilst my eyes fell on Elijah who was already looking at me with the same excited
grin.
′Ready for battle,′ I dered to them. ′Hold our lines until our queen wakes up. Leave Geraden to me.′
On impulse, my legs brought me up. Lady Yna gave me a confident look.
“Queen Serena just needs a little more rest, Your Majesty. She’ll wake up soon. In the meantime, I’ll
take care of her. Now, go,” she assured.
God knows I didn’t want to leave my wife under such circumstances, but I was also needed in battle. If I
needed to leave Serena to someone with more than capable hands, then it would be with the most-
trusted witch in Agotta, Lady Yna.
I nodded and with a puffed up chest, I marched to the opening. Elijah was already way ahead of me,
already shifting to his werewolf form and already joining the front line, obviously itching for some
exercise.
I was just about to step outside the tent when suddenly I was blocked by a dark form. This unexpected
visitor stood a couple of feet away from me, hovering and naturally bringing with him his favorite
intimidating weapon: the scythe.
“This is a surprise, Your Highness, are you here to join the fun?” I asked, giving the King of Sattus a
grin.
His head shook ever so slightly. “You know I can’t take sides, King Aero. I’m neutral.′ His voice still
gave out a lulling echo. It was unnerving.
“Of course,” I nodded, “So why are you here? You want to watch the battle in HD?”
“Hmm,” a rumbling sound of affirmation was heard before his boots hit the grass and neared me, “Yes
that, and I have a second reason why I’m here.”
From the de of his weapon, a string materialized, but it wasn’t just a normal string. I had seen these
many times in my random visits to Sattus. It was the string of life. All living things be it werewolves,
faes, witches, humans, vampires—yes, even them—and many more have this kind of string, and only
the King of Sattus has rule over them.
“I want to show you this,” he stretched theck-luster string so that it was taut in front of me.
I stared at it, initially lost until I realized whose fucking string it was.
“Damn it,” I cursed, quickly retreating inside the tent.
‘General Halcynos, my Alphas!’ I mind-linked as I strode back to the inner tent. ‘I’ll be back. In the
meantime, get busy,’ I told them.
‘Yes, Your Majesty,’ all of them chorused.
“Lady Yna,” I called, finding her still holding Serena’s hand.
“I don’t understand,” she cried out, confusion clear in her eyes, “She’s still not waking and she’s not
responding to any of my spells, Your Majesty.”
I approached them and directly picked up Serena from the chaise lounge.
“That is because her spirit is trapped elsewhere. Her body now is just a shell,” I exined.
Her eyes flitted to the King of Sattus who nonchntly entered the room. With his presence, she didn’t
need to ask me further.
“Right, I see…” she stated. “Then, let me apany you.”
“No,” I replied, shaking my head. “Lady Yna, I want you to do something for me. Would you be open
to it?”
She didn’t hesitate to answer, “Tell me and I’ll make sure to deliver it.”
Holding my sleeping wife close to me, the King of Sattus and I left the Baltic Meadows and transported
to his shadow castle. Everywhere I look, I was reminded of just how gloomy this ce was. The dull
gray and ck color just dominated the interior design of his castle. There was a little red here and a
little brown there, but never white and green.
However, as he guided me to another room with an arched double door, I was taken aback. Silver and
gold were all over the walls and flooring. It perfectly contrasted with the earlier room we just
materialized in.
This particr room had an open roof that showed the eternal lightning bolts of Sattus and right
overhead, a magical inlet of water caught my eye. The glowing liquid fell down like a waterfall towards
arge pool. Its size almost consumed the space of the room.
The King of Sattus, still holding his beloved scythe, pointed to the glowing blue pool and said, “You
want to save her right, then soak her there.”
“I thought you are neutral,” I cocked a brow. I was happy he was helping us, but still, this left me
wondering why.
“Someone has vited my rules in the spirit realm using dark magic. I can’t just idly stand by and
watch,” he simply answered.
I epted this as a good answer. If I were in his shoes, I’d probably do the same thing.
“This water came from the River Enyd. This is the closest the living and the dead can make contact.
Queen Serena may not be dead, but she’s close to the real deal with her soul trapped in the spiritual
ne.”
I didn’t bother to ask who did this to her and how. I ignored these details as the only thing that mattered
to me in the present was her and getting her precious life back.
Entering the pool slowly, I found that the water was conveniently warm and soothing. Its glow reminded
me of Salviste Lake. I didn’t think they were connected, but their beauty and soothing effect sure were
simr.
Just like the King of Sattus instructed, I submerged Serena in the water, but not satisfied, I decided to
dive too. I found instantly I could breathe.
I embraced Serena and buried my face on the crook of her neck. As we both floated underwater, I
reached out to her inner thoughts hoping that maybe she could hear me wherever she was.
‘Serena, love, if you can hear me,e back to me,’ I started, focusing on our powerful bond. I
embraced her tightly as my anxiety started chewing my confidence. What if she couldn’te back?
What if she’s trapped forever in the spiritual ne? I’d be forever empty. Noughter or happiness
would color my life. I’d forever stay in darkness, hatred, and anger where I truly belonged. I’d forever
wallow in grief.
‘I don’t need to use any cheesy lines,’ I continued, shoving the negative thoughts in my head. ‘I know
you know my love for you is endless. Juste back to me and we will crush all our enemies together.
Afterward, you and I will make lots of babies. We are going to name them with exotic names like Snape
and Shera, Quincy, and Zelda. You like that would you?’
Like a miracle, her body began to glow. I watched, astonished, as the first phase of her shift began to
take shape. Her hands changed into ws, her limbs started to grow that beautiful white fur, her body
brightened even more and this time, I quickly hugged her tighter and pressed my forehead against
hers.
I decided I shift in time with her, so as the bright light enveloped us, my body transformed into my
werewolf form. ck against white, a perfect contrast, and a perfect match.
Serena
The silence of the cave was deafening. It was mocking me as I failed again and again in trying to
focusing on my wrist mark and mate mark on the neck, to even looking for a way out of the cave.
Nevannir must have redesigned the whole crystal cave over the centuries that I was away. I was
certain there was an opening on the north side of the cave, but now, I discovered it had turned into a
wall.
Worthless, powerless… Sofia’s words kept on harassing my conscience. Yes, I admit, it hit me real
good, but I didn’t let it pull me down. I was certain Aero would save me. I just needed to be patient.
Needed to stay sane…
In one of my wanderings too, I happened to discover an inner room. It didn’t take me long to realize
Nevannir had made a home in this cave. The sprawled parchments, stacks of books, light pirs, and
writing materials were all over the ce. He had an overly decorated four-poster bed on one side and a
study table on the other.
This study table I decided to check and true enough, my hunch was right. He had been researching
dark magic and even practicing them. This was exactly the reason why he was able to trap me in this
spiritual ne. Huh, what a sicko.
An idea suddenly formed in my head and with this, I hastened to flip the books and open the
parchments in the hopes of finding an answer to my predicament. Minutester, I was able to find one
but it entailed the conjurer—namely Nevannir—to lift my spiritual cage.
Urgh. Figures.
Seeing as I had no other way out of this problem, I sank to the floor and decided to reevaluate my
situation. I tried my luck again inmunicating with my husband; really, really focused on our bond

and used my fond memories with him to heighten up my call.
And this time, I suddenly felt like I was submerged in water. I stretched my fingers and noticed them
actually dripping with the transparent liquid.
‘Serena, love,’ out of the blue, Aero’s voice rang inside my head, ‘if you can hear me,e back to
me.’ I quickly balled my eyes out. There was no better sound than to hear his voice inside my head.
‘I don’t need to use any cheesy lines,’ he continued as spiritual tears fell down my cheeks. ‘I know you
know my love for you is endless. Juste back to me and we will crush all our enemies together.’
Oh, yes, I’d like that, I thought.
‘Afterwards, you and I will make lots of babies.’
I halfughed and half-sobbed.
‘We are going to name them with exotic names like Snape and Shera, Quincy and Zelda. You like that
would you?’
Oh hell no! My mind cried out just as I cringed at the thought of our little angels actually called with
those names. He was joking right?! I was sure he was joking!
My spiritual body then glowed and right before I knew it, I was waking up underwater with Aero close to
me, in our full wolf form. I was beautiful and he was handsome, and we, as wolves, were perfect
together.
‘Your speech is very enticing, Aero,’ I mind-linked him. ′But ditch those names please.′
He chuckled at this. ‘Of course,’ he answered.
He caressed me with his snout and licked my mate mark with passion. ‘Wee back, my queen, care
for a run?’
I hummed an affirmative. ‘You lead, my king.’
