Lycus's pov
Everything seemed foggy around me as soon as I opened my eyes. I blinked severally trying to get a clear vision of where I was. I was met with the sight of familiar ceilings, smoky atmosphere and my nostrils were filled with pungent smell. I wheezed as smoke made its way into my nose.
I flung off the covers that were laid on me and struggled to get off the bed. I was shirtless, why was I shirtless? Where the fuck am I? My head banged as I stood on my feet, they were wobbly and I felt light headed. The room was dark but I could see nonetheless as I had extra vision as an Alpha.
Spyro are you there? I tried communicating my wolf, can you hear me?
yes I can, He answered, where are we? And where the fuck is my Nyx?
I froze at his words, Nyx? Where was she? Images of what I could recall began flooding in my head. I remembered the passionate moment we had shared, me ravishing her sweet core and how I made her cum and after that I remember hugging her before falling into unconsciousness.
The door opened interrupting my thoughts and in walked who I had guessed it was from the way the room was.
"Your highness." He said bowing before me as soon as he entered, "You might want to sit down, you need to rest." He walked towards me hunched on his walking stick.
"Xerxes." I called his name with a nod while I sat back down on the bed, "What happened to me?"
He walked over to me, dropped his stick and held my head in his hands, "Can you sense your wolf?" He asked.
"Yes." I nodded in affirmative.
"Good, that means he wasn't affected then." He said and I was puzzled.
"Speak clearly, do not confuse your King."
He let go of my head with a smirk and stepped back taking his stick, "I see you have found your mate, my king." "No." I lied, no one was to know I had found her, how did he ever know?
you are such an idiot! Spyro cursed at me.
"Don't lie to your healer, my King." He smirked at me and I sighed in defeat, "You will want to tell me the truth."
"Yes, I have found her." I said, "What has that got to do with what happened to me?"
He walked further away from me towards some shelves where he stretched, took down a bottle and returned to where I was. "What do you want to do with an empty bottle?" I asked him.
"Oh this, I might need it later." He dropped it on a small bench next to us.
"So what exactly happened?"
"You are bewitched!" He said to me and I wasn't shocked at his revelation, "A type of spell has been cast on you."
"What type?"
"The type that causes one to hate his mate." He said, "And the bad thing is, it will drain your energy making you really weak, that is the side effect of the spell cast on you." He explained, "The good thing is you wolf was too strong for the spell to take over him and so it only affected you."
"How does the spell work? Why did it affect me and not spyro?" I asked trying to make sense from his last statement.
"The spell works when you already have pending hatred towards what the person who casted the spell wants you to hate." He answered my question tapping the end of his stick where my heart was, "Tell me more about this mate of yours."
"She is exactly like the one before her and they both appeared in the same manner." I said and he hummed.
"That doesn't mean she is like her."
"I cannot take chances Xerxes." I growled at him, "How do you break the spell?"
"By getting closer to your mate." He smiled at me, "It's the only way you can break the spell." He said and I groaned loudly.
"Is there any other option aside that?" I inquired.
"Of course there is." He nodded, "Your
not doing as I say and the spell keeps affecting you thereby you become so weak, your throne gets taken from you cause no one wants a weak king!" He snapped at me.
I had nothing to say to him and we both stayed silent for a while.
"Getting closer will be quite a hard task." I sighed breaking the silence. "Why? Cause you hate her kind?"
I nodded not having to answer verbally.
you didn't think about hate when you were face fucking her pussy! Spyro snickered at me as he was highly irritated by my attitude, drop this hate shit and fucking accept the one
the moon goddess has chosen for
us.
I ignored him and took my attention back to Xerxes, "Give her a chance." He said to me, "I know what happened in the past must have been tragic but.."
"Who do you think did this?" I asked cutting him short not wanted to hear talks of giving chances, "Do you think she is the one? She has to be the one it happened when I was near her."
oh moon goddess, why did you pair me such a daft?! I rather be paired with a squirrel! Spyro whined in my head causing me to frown.
"No your Highness, I think it's a really strong witch."
"It's fay." I whispered in realisation suddenly remembering all her threats.
oh bravo! Genius! Bravo! He finally deciphered the obvious, what a clever king! You might want an award perhaps?Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
I have had enough of your sass! I growled cutting off our connection.
I mind linked the most of the warriors immediately and they all came rushing in the room in an instant.
"Good to see you are awake your highness." One said as they all bowed before me.
"I am glad too." I said to them, "Get some of your men and go find fay, the coven queen, bring her alive!" I said and they all stood at attention to my order.
"Your highness, the person who had tried to kill you is currently being punished as she deserves."
"Who do you speak off?" I asked confused.
Something is off! Spyro said, Something is wrong somewhere.
"The omega slut whom was found in
your office." The
person who had
spoken before answered and I lunged towards him holding him by his neck, just then I felt a harsh pain tear through me and it only meant one thing, it was Nyx and she was in danger.
"Where the fuck is she?" I growled at him.
"The pack elders gathering." He wheezed and I immediately dropped him and breezed through the door. I ran with my Alpha speed towards where they said she was.
I reached the location and I could hear cheers and chanting. I caught her scent it was mixed with blood, I ran straight into the place and reached the clearing in an instant.
I could see members of the elders at the table including my Beta.
Nyx was bleeding on the floor lifeless with a guard standing above her whipping her mercilessly.
How dare they?! I growled in anger commanding attention as I shifted letting spyro take over. He didn't waste time in lunging at the guard, bringing him to the ground and snapping his neck.
The whole crowd went hush.
