Free Web NovelChapter 67: Chapter 67 But How?
Abby’s POV
’They are destined to unite the realms of the supernatural. They will be strong. More than you and Matt. But they will also need guidance.’ She says with pride. The battle still flows around me, and I am reminded I need to get to Ellie.
After the force field clear my immediate opponents I run towards Laurel, the figures I saw teleport in here and Ellie. She is crying and pouring her heart out, sitting on the floor, her arms around. Willow.
In front of Willow and the devastated Ellie, stands a large beautiful eagle and a handsome young man. They are both protecting the sisters, who are not in any capacity to fight, or so I thought.
Ellie says something to Willow, who puts a hand on her stomach. A soft golden glow flows from her hands and into Ellie. Galaxy and I can feel the magic flowing from one to another, and then we hear it. The beat of a heart. Willow has saved Ellie’s child. But how?
When she is finished with her task, Willow rises. Her eyes are black as coal, her aura changes from warm and inviting to cold and deathly. Her skins pales, her hair turns black as night. Everything in her being is the contrary to her normal bubbly and happy self.
Her feet are no longer touching the ground, and she flows towards the center of the battle where the four goddesses are fighting each other. Laurus and Vera have disappeared from the battlefield, I noticed. I follow in the wake of Willow, making sure not to come near her. Galaxy keeps whimpering in my mind. She does not like the change in our little sister, but she knows something I don’t. She continues to warn me not to come near her.
Everywhere she flows, the battle stops. Those who do not get out of her way quick enough falls to the ground, dead. I mind-link the others to make sure they do not come near her, and they all respond with gathering around me. All of them have wounds from the battle, but none is fatal. I breath a sigh of relief.
Ellie gets to her feet with the help of the young man and walks to my side. The tears are still prominent in her eyes. I put an arm around her shoulder, and Galaxy lets me take full control again. The battle is over, for now.
We keep following Willow to the middle of the courtyard, where the four goddesses are still fighting each other. A great dark blue panther, with the clearest ice-blue eyes I’ve ever seen, walks up beside Willow who doesn’t seem to take notice of him. He walks so close to her; I fear he will drop dead any minute.
"They are mates. She will never hurt him. Not that she can, anyway. Jax is the next in line for the throne down here." The young man says, his eyes pinned on the panther and my sister with pride.
"They are going to be a magnificent pair when she is of age. Just think how powerful she’ll be then, when she is so powerful already." He continues.
The goddesses have not sensed the surrounding battle has stopped, mostly. Some demons try to make a last effort at defeating us, but we, mostly Willow or what/who the hell she is, kill them without mercy.
She glides towards the goddesses, who have finally noticed her and the finished battle. Keres eyes widen, her mouth agape.
"No.. No, no, no. What have you done?" She screams at her sisters with a finger raised toward Willow.
Willow hisses. Her black eyes fixed on the dark goddess. Her aura becomes even darker, and it seems to seep out of her. The panther moves closer to her side, sitting down. It sits slightly in front of Willow, who finally seems to notice it. She pus a hand on him, and as she does that, his fur seems to get dark blue flames around it. He purrs.
"Wow. Will you look at that? I’ve heard the tales, but never had I ever thought to live and see this day. How about you, Jasmin?" The young man asks the woman, who mind-linked me earlier.
"They truly are special. I wish my mate will be as special and devoted if I ever am granted one again." The girl answer with a big smile. The panther turns his massive head, dark blue eyes meet with the ice-blue once of the couple besides me. He huff in their direction. His eyes have become darker, as if he is consuming the dark energy of Willow.
"Keres. Goddess of the underworld, this is your only warning. Keep away from my family, or I will come after you! I will not tolerate these schemes to obtain more power. The balance of the realms must prevail at any cost." Willow says in a dark hoarse voice that is not her own. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
Keres looks at her sisters with disdain.
"I hope you know what you have started." She sneers. She turns around, as to look for someone, but that someone has other plans, because only a second later I am attacked.
With a warrior cry, Sylla attacks me. I push Ellie out of the way this time before she can react. Her child will not be harmed once again. free𝑤ebnovel.com
Galaxy rushes forward, and we share control again, dodging the attack of the crazed witch. Her eyes are slightly widened, full of hatred and hunger for what she cannot have. She attacks with no mercy, not caring about her own wounds as we fight and throw punches and kicks at each other.
Out of nowhere, Sylla slices a dagger over my arm. My scream fills the courtyard. I glimpse the blade and it seems to be a cursed one. By the pain of the wound and the fact it is not closing, the curse is made by some powerful dark magic. I fall to one knee, feeling the power and life slip out of me in that wound. How is that possible?
I can feel Galaxy panicking. This is not a normal curse. Then we see Keres smirk in the background.
"Give up those precious pups, or die with them within you." She says before trying to teleport herself and Sylla out of there. Willow’s eyes widen in fear and anger as I slowly fall the last way down.
Keres and Sylla screams, something must have gone wrong with the teleportation. The thought makes me wonder, as defenders take the women into custody.
The last thing I see is everyone rushing to my side. I hear Ellie and Willow yelling my name and Galaxy howling in agony in my head before everything goes dark.
