Chapter 78


    Chapter 78


    Ares POV


    I heard everything and saw everything that happened at the border through uncle Dave’s eyes. Mia


    died by the hands of her biological mother and then she cast a curse on Nora that would hurt us as well


    but something is bothering me.


    Luca has been attacking the castle since my dad and the army left for the border. If he attacks he must


    think that we still have Nora here but we don’t. So he couldn’t have taken her away and Mia seemed


    surprised by the fact that she was gone but..


    Melinda was so calm about that matter, did she hide her? If s? then I trust Melinda for keeping Nora


    safe. But right now we are still under attack and I have mindlinked dad about that and they are on their


    way home again with.. Felix, ugh..


    “Prince Ares, the fountain in the garden has been destroyed and for some reason it’s raining fire” Anna


    comes running to let me know.


    I turn and look out of the window and see that she is right. Fine, when will the water turn into blood and


    where are the freaking toads?


    Dad and Helios are an hour away and I have no ideas for what to do. I wish that Nora was here, I really


    want her calming words and I need my lycan to wake up. I don’t like to feel weak.


    Melinda’s barriers around the castle are strong but there are still people in the vige and the packs in


    our kingdom. The witches are all at the border except for Maya but I want to break her neck if she


    comes here. No, I will break her neck if she dares to step foot inside this castle.


    “Prince Ares?” Anna says-and 1 sigh and shake my head slowly.


    “All we can do is to wait him out and deal with the aftermathter on” I say and shrug


    “Is that really all?” Daniel say as hees walking slowly towards us


    “Are you still here?” I ask and lift an eyebrow.


    “Yes, I can’t leave the castle” he say and I tilt my head


    *Is Nora still here?* I ask him in the mindlink and Daniel smiles


    and nods


    *Yes, Melinda hid her but I am not sure where, I just get a general feeling* Daniel says and I look


    around.


    *You won’t find her that easy, trust me I have already tried* he snickers


    *Actually, Melinda taught me how to seek out others auras even when they are invisible or using a


    cloaking spell* | answer and this time Daniel tilts his head


    Is-she teaching you? But you hate lesson and studying* he answers and stares at me like I have grown


    an extra head.


    *Never said I did but I do hate politics and internal affairs and other boring stuff. I have studied only


    things that l’am interested in. Like warrior stuff and some other things* I


    answer and chuckles at him as he nods for himself.


    Ah, I found her. Nora.


    *You found her? You have a silly smile on your face* Daniel says and I look at him and give him a mini


    nod.


    I walk towards the kitchen and notice a crystal in the kitchenmp and I smile. Melinda did a good job


    in hiding Nora. I make some coffee and Annaes in with Daniel.


    “You guys hungry? Oh, who am I kidding, you are always hungry” Annaughs and Daniel snicker.


    “How about some leftovers? We have a lot of those these days. Beef stew and rice, tomato soup, ribs,


    pancakes, waffles, pasta bolognese..” Anna starts counting things in the fridge but me and Daniel don’t


    say anything and just like the entire poption inside the castle heard her, they are starting to gather


    inside the kitchen.


    “We will set the table” four guards say and start to take the tes and sses out of the cup boards.


    I smile and hop up and sit on a kitchen ind, watching over everyone as they gather to help Anna with


    the food. It feels pleasant as everyone was ‘scared just a few moments ago and now it’s a happy and


    homey feeling in the kitchen.


    “Hey, Daniel, what about you and I go and look if there is someone upstairs hiding?” I say and Daniel


    nods. All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.


    We walk out of the kitchen and start to walk around the castle looking inside every room for more


    scared people. We find the doctor in his office and he is happy toa and eat so we send him


    downstairs.


    3/5


    I feel like Daniel is hiding something so I simply ask him.


    “What is going on with you?” I ask Daniel and he stops and sighs.


    “You are probably gonna hit me but when Anna connected me and Nora in her mind…I kissed her”


    Daniel confessed and I looked at him. I feel angry but at the same time I don’t have a say in that.


    “That’s it?” I say and shrug before I keep walking.


    “You are not gonna hit me?” he asks and tries to keep up with


    me.


    “Nah, that’s between you and her. Helios told me about you and Nora before he took her away from


    you. So I guess I have just been waiting for your emotions to explode. But does Melinda know about


    this?” I say and turn my head to look at


    him.


    He looks stunned but nods his head.” She heard me talking to Nora and she said that I should tell Nora


    that directly and linked us together” Daniel exins and I smile and nod.


    We keep on walking but we stop as we hear a small noise from one of the rooms. It is a guest room


    and Daniel slowly opens the door and we walk inside. It’s nothing in there but on instinct I open the


    bathroom door and I gasp.


    A young girl is in there, she smells like a werewolf and she is heavily pregnant. She covers away from


    me but I crouch next to her.


    “Who are you?” I ask of her and she looks up at me with her big brown eyes with tears in them


    “He wille back and hurt me if he knows that I have talked to you” she whispers and looks


    frightened.


    “Who will hurt you?” Daniel asks and she looks up at him.


    “He is a lycan, I think I heard someone call him “elder” she whispers and trembles.


    I look over at Daniel and he looks just as confused as I feel. Elder William?
