Just great, when I thought we were almost done it was just starting over.
“Did you really think you could defeat us that easily?” They asked again laughing seeing the look of shock on our faces.
“Where is Amon?” Damon asked angrily.
” You’ll never find him Axel, you’ll never be king, we’ll make sure of that and destroy your minions with you.” The red witch stated glaring at us.
I was still confused as to why they weren’t dead but then they could have pulled an illusion trick and it made me wonder if they were doing the same now. I had questions I wanted to ask Sam.
“We’ll find Amon and bring an end to this tyranny. We will bring an end to you because you are nothing, nothing but stupid old hags.” Aria said and I nearly laughed at her choice of words.
Her words annoyed the witches as they both used their powers to push her to the end of the room causing her to hit her head on the wall.
“Is that the best you can do? You must not be as powerful as you think you are.” I had no idea where Aria was going with this though but I went over to where Sam stood.
“Is there a way you can find the location of Amon?” I whispered
“He’s somewhere in this room hiding.” Sam answered and I began to look around for places that was big enough for a grown man to hide. Why would the supposed king be hiding. This just goes to show our weak he is only to be controlled by witches.
“Do you know where in particular?” I asked but the witch got hold of me using her powers to bring me very close to her. The red witch was choking me, her hands tightly pressed around my neck, her long red nails piercing deep into my skin.
“Let her go now!” Damon and everyone else chorused.
I tried to wriggle free from her grasp and do something with my powers but I was already finding it difficult to breathe.
“It would be so great if the future king died before it was even born right?” She asked circling her fingers around my stomach and in that instance she let go of me as her feet started burning causing me to fall to the floor. I created a circle of fire around her increasing the intensity of the heat.
Aria, Loranda and the other witch continued to battle while we dealt with the one we had. Regaining her composure she put out the fire and used her powers to push me to the other side of the room and the intensity of the pain was great. It felt like a thousand drummers were drumming on my head and when my back collided with the wall I felt the pain immensely.
“You fools, I’m not one to mess with.” She said starting a raging ball of fire directed at me but before it could get to me Damon turned it into a ball of ice.
“Saving your damsel in distress aren’t you?” She asked letting out an evil smile.
“You won’t be able to hurt her or anyone of us.” Damon stated with confidence and she let out an evil laugh once more before launching an attack at Damon.
I quickly got on my feet and hid under a table, my head was spinning and banging, trying to keep my eyes open I sighted a small entrance not properly closed and made my way to it, hopefully that wa where Amon was hiding. If I could get to him and defeat him the witches wouldn’t really have any need to continue the fight.
I crawled to the entrance and when I got in I kept on crawling until the space opened wide and big enough for me to walk through. The place was dark but lit up with different lights, I kept on walking as it was a straight road until I saw a door heavily guarded by about ten hefty soldiers.
I knew I probably stood no chance trying to fight them off so I just used a mighty gush of wind to push them away till they got knocked out.
Opening the door, I saw who I presume to be Amon with two older soldiers with him.
“Who are you and what are you doing here?” They demanded with hostility.
I quickly communicated with Damon telling him I’ve found Amon, that was the best thing I could do. It was not my battle to fight.
“I’m sorry I got lost. You’re the wolf king right, you look… good.” I was trying to indulge them in a conversation before Damon or someone came down here.
Amon gave me a suspicious look and checked me out, rumors were right then, he chases after anything with a skirt and forcefully had his way with them.
“And who might you be?” He asked coming closer to me of which I took a step back.
“Don’t go closer, she might be armed.” One of the soldiers warned.
” I’m not.” I stated raising my hands up and turning around. ” I’m not armed, there was an attack and I was looking for a place to hide and I’m so glad I found you. I know you are going to take care of me.” I said with a small smile.
“Then what happened to the guards outside?” The other questioned eyeing me quizzically.
“I think they must have fallen asleep.” I answered
“Keep a close eye on her while I go check things outside.” The soldier said as he left the room leaving me with the other soldier who forcefully held my hands preventing me from making any move.
“Easy there Richard, you don’t want to hurt her.” He said giving me a small smile which I returned. Damon needs to be here soon, I hope they killed the witches already.
” She’s dangerous.” The other soldier announced walking in pointing a gun at me while the one holding me tightened his grip on me.
“Who are you, what are you doing here and who sent you, you have just three seconds to reply before I blow your head up.” He sternly threatened.
“That’s a lot of questions don’t you think?” I asked raising my brows.
“Sweetie, do you think we are joking? You are going to tell me who sent you.” Amon said tracing the lines of my face, “or we’re going to kill your but before that it will be wonderful to see how you taste.” He said slyly grinning.
” Really, I’m quite curious too if the rumors are true, that you’re horrible in bed.” I said laughing.
“Why don’t I just prove it to you now, leave us.” He commanded. I could see them hesitating but they left staying by the door after closing it.
Now that they were out of the door I could easily do something to hurt him but then I think he has powers too but just one element and I didn’t know which.
“You’re so beautiful.” He said tracing the outline of my face and stopping at my lips. I was running out of patience and time and I needed back up.
“And you look really good, like a possessive dominant man.” I said smiling and he let out a happy grin.
His nation was under attack but here he was wanting to have his way with a stranger while doing nothing to protect his kingdom but hide.
“I like your type.” He said moving his fingers along my neck.
“I like yours too.” I said with a small smile wrapping my hands around his neck and just as he was about to lean in for a kiss I created a rime ice and used it to stab him in the neck.
“Aah, ” he let out a loud scream and not to attract the attention of his men I raised my voice loudly.
“Just how you like it huh, you like it rough don’t you?”
“You bitch.” He swore angrily trying to fight me but the blood was starting to spill already. I really didn’t want to be the one that killed him but I doubt if he was going to die from it because I didn’t stab him deep.
“Talk to me dirty, I like it.” I said smiling as I saw him start loosing blood. It was almost over.
I heard a loud shout from outside and before I could comprehend what was going on the door was kicked down and in came Damon and the rest of the gang.
“Are you alright babe?” Damon asked rushing to my side.
“Yes baby I’m fine. He didn’t do anything to hurt me.” He gave me a small smile and kissed my forehead before turning to Amon.
“My dear cousin Amon, good to see you, it’s been a while don’t you think?” Damon asked smiling.
“Axel, I swear I’ll kill you, I’ll kill your mate too, you can’t do this to me. I’ll always be king.” He stated and Aria laughed.
“Dead men don’t rule Amon.” He turned to look at her in shock probably thinking she had been dead a long time ago. “Good to see you too Amon.” She said smiling.
“The war is over now Amon, we have defeated the evil witches, there’s no one to back you now, your tyranny comes to an end.” Damon spoke confidently looking at Amon with a smile.
“What..?” He asked dumbfounded, “you killed the witches! That’s not possible.”
“You better believe it. I. As much as we’ll love to see you die now, I believe it will be an easy death for you don’t you think so Aria.” Damon said smiling definitely coming up with something.
“What do you have in mind Alpha king?” Aria asked smiling.
