SCARLET’S POV
“Cham… lar… nooo…” I heard my Chamlee scream.
“Chamlee” I murmured to myself before I finally shifted.
I was horrified. Does he mean that I should not shift into my wolf form or what? And why is the atmosphere suddenly feeling so weird? It was as if I had not been here all along.
Why do I feel strange all of a sudden, why does it feel like something strange is about to happen here?
My senses suddenly woke up. I can hear everything, loud and clear.
I felt a sword pierce through me and I took a sharp turn and my gaze met theirs. But soon I was on the ground, my Chamlee had pushed me.
And that was when I saw it, an object flying in the air coming for my Chamlee. I was frightened, was it from the witch, Mildrid, and why is she even here in the first instance?
I tried to gather enough air from within me and blow away the object, but it was already too late. Chamlee screamed. “Nooo…” and landed on the ground close to me.
The object had hit him and now he is lifeless.
It was as if I was transfixed to the spot. My whole body became completely numb. I could hear the chatters around, but it was as if I was not even there.
My anger was directed at beta Tim and the witch. Should anything happen to my Chamlee, then I would make sure that they spend the rest of their lives eating feces and concrete.
“It can’t be him, it was meant for her” the witch, Mildrid fumed angrily.
“No…” beta Tim screamed.
“What do we do, Mildrid, use another broom for the queen, make her dead immediately” he ordered aggressively.
They had come to kill me. I thought this was only a battle and never knew it would get this weird. My own father had brought a witch to end my life.
“It was just that one” Mildrid replied.
“Chamlee…” I called as I finally made to get up.
My heart was crunched, I felt shattered and heavy but the voices of the enemy wouldn’t stop playing in my ear.
“He is her king, what else do you want?” the witch spat.
“His death is nothing to me” beta Tim retorted.
I completely ignored them and rushed to Chamlee’s body. His breathing was becoming shallow by the second.
What if he dies from this? The terrible pain cut across my heart again.
I tried to get him to wake up but he was not responding. I remained strong in the face of this adversity and tried not to let my emotions take over me.
My Chamlee must not die, he is not going to die but first I need to take care of the enemies. Those who did this to him must not be allowed to go scot-free. “They must pay for this” I roared.
By the time I look up, the witch and beta Tim have left the battleground.
But that is not a problem. Since they are gone we live to fight another day.
Everywhere was in chaos after the soldiers noticed what had happened. Some of my men had gathered around me to shield me from the enemy. I was in agony.
“My Chamlee…” I whispered and planted a kiss on his lips. “Please take him back to Pixolands right away” I ordered.
Seven soldiers rushed over and carried Chamlee. “Lara should take proper care of him” I murmured.
“Yes, Chamlar” they chorused and went off.
I stood up in anger and shouted. “I need all those with the vampire blood with me right away”
The slaves with the vampire blood gathered around me and I ordered them. “We have to show them no mercy. I don’t want even a single one of them out of here alive”
“Yooohoooo…” they screamed in response.
“Right… you all fight with all you got. I am right here and now give you their blood. They are yours for your thirst. Devour them and use their blood to shine your skin” I instructed.
“Yooohoooo…” they screamed in joy.
“Go after them now, one by one, and kill them while their eyes are open” I ordered.
“Yooohoooo… ooo…” they screamed the loudest and ran off.
I grabbed hold of my sword and ran to climb my horse. This fight must go on in earnest.
The fight for my lover is not one for the softhearted.
ROBIN’S POV
I have been watching everything all along. It was magic, magic in its darkest.
My heart shredded to pieces as I watched the agonizing state of the queen. It was meant for her but the Chamlee went for it instead. What if he does not survive it, would the queen ever be able to recover from his death?
Theirs is an unusual love, one that is not spoken by mere words. None could live without the other.
Everywhere was in chaos but I remained just where I was for some reasons beyond my control. I have not been able to move a step since I first sighted the witch, Mildrid. I felt hypnotized.
But how I was able to take note of Mildrid when no other soldier did was still unexplainable to me. If I had not seen them when I did and drawn the Chamlee’s attention to them then it would have been our Chamlar lying lifeless.
I fumed and cursed under my breath. I should have been the one in Chamlee’s place instead. The queen would not have been this hurt. It would have just been a soldier lying dead. I would have gotten a befitting state burial. I would have loved that.
What fixed me to this spot even when every other soldier was already reacting to what had happened? Or am I completely traumatized to the extent of not being able to even use my legs anymore? Or is it now that the charm finally got me?
I watched nervously as she ordered for Chamlee to be brought back to Pixolands. Is he going to make it? I hope he does.
“I need all those with the vampire blood with me right away” she exclaimed and all the slaves with the vampire blood immediately gathered around her.
“We have to show them no mercy. I don’t want even a single one of them out of here alive” she instructed.
“Yooohoooo…” they screamed in response.
She was urging them to fight, fight the enemies. Slowly, I was beginning to drift far away. My head was spinning at three hundred and sixty degrees. My eyes had become heavy and my legs were finding it difficult to support me.
I was overtaken by fear. I was finally going into a trance.
“Move… Robin… why are you here up to no good?” a voice said from behind me.
It sounded like that of Lord Nathan, so I turned my head with all the strength inside of me. It was truly Lord Nathan.
“Lord… Nathan…” I said weakly.
“You…” he murmured staring intensely into my eyes.
He immediately took hold of my head and shook it furiously. When he was done, I discovered that the weakness was completely gone and with a scream, I dashed off to fight.
