I noticed a Lycan about to jump at me but James was there to help. He quickly threw him into the air with his body and they fell together, ‘Thank you,‘ I told him through the mind link.
‘Thank me when we’re done.’ he answered before he started to fight. I saw that he had also shifted because his opponent was a head warrior and he was really strong. He knew that because he was the one who trained them.
I faced Marco and, whether I admitted it or not, I felt a little sad because of our confrontation. He was the father I knew and he never did anything to hurt me. We became very close, so I know how he was when it came to fighting. And that is why he easily loses his patience.
‘Matteo, behind you.‘ Freya warned me through our link. So, instead of getting pinned down by another head warrior, he fell to the ground just right before Marco. Because of that, I tried to look around searching for my mate. I saw her running after the witch that was being protected by warriors. I got worried but I saw Calvin already on his way to help her.
‘Be careful, baby. Don’t chase too far. I’ll finish here and I will help you.‘ I replied. Because of that sudden moment, Marco took that opportunity to lunge at me and pin me down. I fought and struggled trying to get away from him and, thank goddess, I did, even before he got a piece of me.
King howled and I felt everyone stopped in their stance. He radiates his aura to threaten everyone and make them submit. But because Marco was the current king, he would not be that affected. But he was still shaken and I took that chance and lunged at him. He was stunned for a moment, but his reaction was too late because I already had him by his neck.
But what I didn’t expect was that a group of rogues would come and took me away from him. Marco shifted back to his human form and
laughed, “You think you can win this war? No! You don’t know me at all,” he said, and he was fast because he was in front of me in seconds with his right hand on my heart ready to rip it. He was about to but he was thrown away by a big blow from Marcus.
“Long time no see, little brother. You think you will be able to hurt my son? Think again,” he said before he jumped at him. But Marco was fast enough to dodge him. I was being held by four rogues and now that I was back on my feet, I shoved them away before I shifted back to my human form. I jumped at the one near me and grabbed his neck before I snapped it. I saw Rapha fighting the others and so did James. I looked for Freya and saw her fighting side by side with Calvin, so I went to Marcus and helped him.
He was in pain but Marco was not. His mate was alive all along. “Go to Freya, rogues are still coming to her.” Marcus said, so I looked at my mate and he was right, “I’ll take care of my own brother.” he added before I nodded and left them. I guess they will have to settle it themselves.
A rogue was sneaking behind her but I got there in time and killed it instantly. “You’re naked!” she exclaimed,
“Just fight and don’t mind me, baby.” I replied, smiling before I shifted back to King and started fighting. She was aiming for the witch, so I had to support her.
“You are supposed to be dead! Why are you here?” the witch told my
mate.
“Because I am immortal,” she replied and jumped at her. She was careful earlier, but not anymore that I am here. A rogue was about to jump at her too, but I was faster than him and sent him flying 15 meters away. Another one was going after her trying to stop her but Calvin was there and caught him.
“Why can’t I use my spell on you?” the witch asked while Freya was holding her by her neck.
“Because that’s my power,” she replied and snapped her neck. She was dead when Freya let her go. Then we heard a sorrowful howling. It was Marco, he was still affected by the death of his fated mate.
After that, I noticed that some warriors stopped fighting. Besides the rogues who were now on the brink of death, until it was only Marco and Marcus. No one dared to get in between them and let them fight. With the death of the witch, I already know who will become the
winner.
