Chapter 60 - Trial Of Fate Part 1 (1/2)

Sailles crawled to her feet, stumbling her way through the valley of flames. The flaming rocks did nothing to lessen her pain, causing occasional hisses to leave her mouth as her forked tongue slithered out.

After what felt like forever, she finally reached the boundary of the Vampire City. Just as she was preparing to enter, a shadow flashed in front of her.

”Where did you go without letting me know.” Luke snarled in rage, his dark eyes floating with hints of black light. If it was not for the voice, he would not have even noticed her absence.

He was deep in hibernation, attempting to restore the energy he lost in running around, brainwashing the lesser races, to have them say what he needed them to say during the Battle of Wars assembly to deceive the girl.

However, in the midst of his recuperation, the voice sounded in his mind, pushing him to check on the girl. At first, he did not want to leave as he believed she had nowhere to go now that she did not know anyone aside from him.

The Snake clan was there and considering her relationship with them, he found nothing wrong in her visiting.

That was until the voice reminded him of the fact the Snake clan and the Werewolf clan were not brainwashed yet. If Sailles met up with a member from either of the clan, then there was no need to wonder about the outcome of the situation.

They would tell her the truth that the werewolf was her mate and not him. And all his efforts so far would go to waste. All the lies he spun would unravel. Imagining such a situation instantly cleared his mind, pushing all his exhaustion away.

Without hesitation, he strode towards Sailles' room, only to find her gone. Panicking, he flashed out of the Bloodsucking clan's base into the rough landscape of the Nar realm, searching frantically.

After failing to get any results from the regions, he backtracked to the Vampire City. And it was here he found her stumbling her way back into the compound.

Furious, he dashed at her, questioning without greeting.

And this was the scene Ramose witnessed the moment he reached the Vampire City's boundary.

The supreme elder Luke was righteously questioning his mate.

”Versailles!” He shouted, sprinting into a run.

The moment Ramose left his bed, he went out searching for her. His pack followed even though they felt uncomfortable searching for a female they were unable to trace.

As such, a play started of Ramose sniffing as he followed his soulmates scent in the air, Versailles stumbling as she made her way back to the Vampire City, and Luke raging as he ran about looking for the girl in the vicinity.

Hearing the noise behind her, Sailles turned and saw the beautiful black wolf dashing towards her with the fastest speed she had ever seen a werewolf run.

And before long, the three individuals gathered at the mountain barrier of the Vampire City.

”What are you doing here?” Luke growled the moment he saw the wolf king.

This day could not get any worse. It was one thing that Sailles left the Vampire City. But now, the werewolf king, the one beast in the Nar realm Luke wished to erase out of existence, was present before Sailles.

The one beast he desired for Sailles to never encounter before the day of the Battle of Wit, was present right before her eyes.

”I am here to take my mate home. What else could I be here for.” Composed and calm, he strode towards the two.

”Mate, what mate? Why would your mate be with me?” His flickering eyes shifted to Sailles to check her reaction to the werewolf's words, fearful they would trigger her lost memories. Seeing her expression still indifferent, his racing heart calmed down, but he was still apprehensive as he focused his attention back on the werewolf.

”Supreme Elder, I do not know what you are playing at, but whatever it is, you had better not get my mate involved. Stay away from her.” The threat was evident in Ramose's tone as he growled darkly at the vampire.

He noticed from the day of their mating, the vampire was highly interested in his mate. Ramose even felt a nagging suspicion that the supreme elder might have had a hand in their severed bond.

However, since it was neither the time nor the occasion for such questions, he did not wish to stick around at the vampires territory with his mate undefended. He was also uncertain of her current situation.

Did the forceful severing of the bond have any negative affects on her feelings for him?
