❤️ The Final War (2) ❤️
“You came at the right moment Gon,” Dark said with a smile as he watched the dragon dropping the keeper of Stone off its back and then changing back to his twin.
“Yeah, I grabbed him immediately I saw him, I didn’t want to waste any time.” Gon utter back with his own smile. “How is she?” he asked, gesturing with his head towards Raziah.
“Behemoth helped in freezing Lucifer’s soul and I have given Aragorn a second chance.”
“Why did you give him a second chance? You know he fucked our mate, not once.”
“I know, but he has promised to stay away from her and he wouldn’t pass his boundaries. Let’s give him the benefit of the doubt.” Dark told his twin trying to reason with the angry man with him from killing the Vampire King.
“He should be lucky it wasn’t me, you know I don’t give second chances.” Gon told Dark and took a deep breath to calm his nerves down, he looked around. “And where is that woman who was wearing the face of our dead mother?”
“Right now, Behemoth is holding her captive but he will soon release her since Adalinda wants to kill her with her hands. I couldn’t deprive her of such an easy request.”
While they were talking, the keeper of Stone walked up to meet Raziah, walking through the fire slowly without it burning him and placing one of his old hands beneath Raziah left breasts, at her heart and began to mumble in strange tongue ignoring Raziah who began shaking her body immediately he started his mumbling.
Soon after the keeper of Stone turn to face the brothers as the fire surrounding Raziah and him slowly fades away.
“It is done.” He said.
Dark looked at the keeper of Stones hands and found nothing, he furrowed his eyebrows and open his mouth to say something to old man when he saw Raziah swaying on her feet. He and his twin brother rushed to meet her, nearly pushing the old man out of their way and Gon was the first person to reach Raziah’s side and held her before she could reach the floor.
Raziah slowly opened her eyes and she immediately recognized Gon and her eyes shifted towards Dark who was standing behind Gon. Both identical twins held the same concern expression.
“What happened? Where am I?” She asked, not even trying to get away from Gon grip.
“A lot happened but I am happy that you are back to you.” Dark answered her.
“Violet explained some things to me and I want to know if I hurt any one of you, my dream did come to pass, right?”
“Nonsense, it didn’t, Lucifer was just trying to use you to get to us but he failed and you are okay and that’s what matters right now.” Gon replied to her.
“I am happy you both are okay and here with me.”
“Sorry to intrude but we have to go.” The keeper of Stone said.
“Go? Go where and who are going with you?” Raziah demanded.
“To seal up Lucifer’s soul, they are needed.” The keeper of Stone answered.
“What? They are not going anywhere. They are staying with me.” Raziah said immediately leaving Gon’s comfortable arms and standing up to her feet without any help, her eyes glued on the old man. “No, I won’t allow it.”
“Raziah, we will come back.” Dark told her holding and pulling her gently towards him. “We will be back before you notice we were even gone.” he added.
“We promise, we will come back.” Gon said.
“You don’t always fulfill your promise so don’t promise me.” Raziah didn’t believe them.
“We will be back before you know it.” Gon assured her once again.
“Will they come back? To me?” Raziah asked the keeper of the Stone.
“It is left to them.”
“Don’t mind the old man, we will come back to you, I promise,” Dark said, “In fact there is something waiting for you at your palace.” he added and Gon nodded his head in agreement.
“I love you Dark and I love you Gon.” Raziah finally said the words.
“It’s time.” The keeper of Stone repeated and him, Dark and Gon were gone immediately.
“No, no!” Raziah yelled out. They didn’t even tell me they love me.
“I don’t care if you are gone for eternity but give me Hydra like you promised!” Adalinda yelled out and almost immediately the ground opened up and Hydra was thrown out of it as it closed.
EPILOGUE:
True to Dark words when she reached her palace she searched around ignoring the eyes staring at her and went to her throne room and that’s when she saw the spear Dark had used the first time she met him when she was little. It looks the same except this time it has the symbols of dragons and it was buried to the ground, at the same place Dark had left it, where he challenged her to remove the spear from the ground. Raziah smiled in relief when she understood what it meant. They will come back for her if she is able to pull the spear out from the ground.
Adalinda told her and the Witch Queen what happened and the warriors and Vampires all went their separate ways.
Adalinda carried Hydra with her back to the Witch Kingdom, to the place she had been locked in before she told Raziah if her nephews eventually show up, she should bring them to her or send information to her so that she could come and see them.
Aragorn stayed away from Raziah the Wolf kingdom as long as he lived.

MANY YEARS LATER:
It wasn’t easy and it took her close to 400 years before she was finally able to remove the spear from the ground.
Adalinda on the other hand had kept Hydra alive, torturing her with delight.
Somehow after her encounter with Behemoth, Hydra didn’t have any power left in her and she was at the mercy of her sister Adalinda.
Raziah waited patiently, sitting on her throne chair as she held the spear, spinning it around swiftly, waiting for them to come.
She had almost given up hope until midnight when they came to her. She smelled them right away and smiled.
“You came after all.” She said standing up and turning around to look at them, smiling widely when saw them. They still looked the same, tall and handsome with a matching grin on their faces. They are for her and no one else.
“We came back like we promised, it was tough returning the soul of Lucifer back to where he belonged, he won’t be coming out any time soon, the Creator had seen to it.” Dark said.
“And we were waiting for you to life up the spear and you did, not counting the years it took you long to do it.” Gon stated, though there was no mockery on his voice.
Raziah blushes. “I had to do it, you both left me without reciprocating back the last thing I said before you left me heartbroken.”
“We are sorry and believe us when we say we kicked the Keeper of Stones arse because of that.” Dark told her.
“So…?” Raziah asked with raised brows.
Both brothers look at themselves before staring back at Raziah.
“We love you too Raziah, today and always.” they said it in unison, ignoring their burning skin, saying those words to Raziah was worth the pain.
Years of joy escaped Raziah’s eyes as she took turns to hug them.
“Bow down before us, beautiful.” They said it together.
Raziah laughed out. “Only in bed my handsome lovers,” she said and became serious. “So let’s start afresh.” she added.
“I’m Raziah Omar.” she stretches her hands towards them.
grabbing each of her hands to place a kiss on it.
“And we are Dark and Dragon Dontizu.”
The End.
