The Third Person’s POV
While the girls are hunting deep in the forest, Matt and the others are defending the pack to the best of their abilities. There are attacks everywhere, and in the middle of it all, more explosions go off. The enemy seems to have the upper hand at the moment, but the defenders are not letting up.
Matt/Blade fights alongside his parent’s wolves and Jason/Draco. The other Alphas have spread out all over the territory, holding the hordes of attackers back. Witches and wizards from the residing coven are fighting side by side with the wolves, deflecting curses and sending their own in the other direction.
Everyone seems encouraged by their King being in the middle of the fray with them, not running and hiding, letting his people fight alone. Rumors of the royal children and future Luna being kidnaped have swirled, and when Abby is missing from their middle, they all know she is on a mission to save the children and will be back. It’s a comforting thought amid war and despair.
Narine is leading the attack. She has revenge to extract on certain people here. Narine doesn’t care about Sylla and Leo’s plans to capture, torture, and kill Abby and her brats. She is only here because this is her opportunity to kill Jasmin and Adriana.
The old farts who orchestrated her escape try to order her around. To stay back at letting the men handle the situation, because this is too dangerous for a proper lady.
Narine sneers at them, rounding and using her magic to have them kill each other. Soon all six of them are laying at her feet, dead and gone. The stupidity of men has not changed the last couple of hundreds of years. She smiles at her macabre handiwork, hoping someone will step upon it soon and be scared for life before moving on.
From the little bag Sylla had ready for her, she finds the communication mirror. She lifts it to her lips, saying the name she had on her mind ever since she escaped.
"Laurus"
In the mirror, the face of the King of demons appears.
"Narine, me dear child. How are things coming along?" He asks, a lazy smile on his lips. He has let Narine take charge over this attack, just providing her with the number of demons she needs. They will return to him after all if they are not vanquished.
"I am about to enter the battle, but things are looking good. And on your end?" She asks back. She hopes he can keep his end of the deal, so Jax will have no alternative to take her as Queen when this is over.
"The girl is on her way, wanting to help her family. Maximillian is busy with.. Other things. He doesn’t know she is gone." The King smiles at Narine, a smile that doesn’t reach his eyes. He enjoys these intrigues as much as the next demon, but he is hoping his firstborn son will soon stop this endless and pointless chase on the weird witch girl, and get his eyes on Narine. She is the Queen he himself would have wished for.
Narine nods, closing the connection and concentrating on the task at hand. Whenever that bitch entered the battlefield, she was dead. She walks out in the open, her dark blue magic swirling around her hands, her mother’s laughter in her ears. Ah! The smell of blood and death in the morning.
Jasmin notice her opponent enter the field, fashionably late as always. She links Adriana to be aware of Narine’s arrival. Jamis doesn’t like the satisfied glint in her eyes and the smirk playing on her lips as she slaughter everyone in her reach.
Jasmin, tired of the advantage of the attackers, gathers her royal aura. She stands her ground and orders the demons within her aura’s reach to stand down and go back to the underworld. Some try to fight her, but others bow in her direction and vanish. She knows it won’t hold the off forever; she needs her brothers here. The immediate threat here is over, the rouges and witches are no match for the mate and the other wolves and the witches on their side.
She turns her attention to Narine, when a howl pierces the sky. It is one of sorrow and pain. Someone is dead, someone with a high rank. Jasmin can’t link with the wolves, only with her own people, because she is a demon princess. She might be a shifter. Then a light bulb goes off in her. She is a shifter. frёewebηovel.cѳm
’About damn time you remembered me,’ Sundancer says sarcastically in her mind. Jasmin rolls her eyes, shifts into her eagle, and takes off. Everyone around her stops fighting when her eagle gives an ear-piercing screech.
’Adriana, we need to get Jasper, Jax and Willow here. ASAP! I will keep watch over the sky, but I can’t communicate with the wolves. If I land, can one of the witches do a linking spell on me and my mate?’ Jasmin asks from above them. Adriana asks her question to no one in particular. One witch volunteer to do it, and Jasmin lands gracefully.
When that is done, she takes off again, this time with Jonathan’s voice in her head.
’Be careful, Angel.’
’I will, and you too. Tell Jeremy Adriana has to go fetch my brothers and Willow..’ She is interrupted when a tiny figure approaches the battle.
’Never mind, she has to fetch my brothers, and it has to be now! Willow just arrived.’
’I will,’ Jonathan answers before closing the link for now.
Jasmin flies over to the other side of the battle where two wolves are laying very still on the ground. She watches as Willow runs to them, dodging and avoiding attacks like a pro. She uses her magic to deflect attacks, sending lightning and fire in all directions where defenders are in trouble. Jasmin and Sundancer are bursting with pride, looking over their future Queen. As if she can feel them watching, she looks up with a smile and waves.
On the ground, Willow was running as fast as she can. She can feel the sorrow emanating from this particular area of the battle. She feels watched over and looks up to see a giant eagle flying directly over her. Jasmin. Jax has told her about their animals, so she is sure this is her. She smiles and waves before concentrating on the task at hand. She needs to hurry.
As she arrives, the wolves who don’t know her growls and make ready to attack her. Then a huge wolf walks ahead, sniffs her and nods. She smiles at him. Blade. He smells of her sister, a smell she would never forget.
