Female Novel
Eighty Six
We waited, I told Aldrin what he looked like, which was easy because King Darshan and his son looked
exactly alike, his father though was a little more brooding not that it mattered with the amount of people
in this cave, it was literally a sea of men and we couldn’t exactly go wandering to find them. I could feel
my magic getting stronger, Aldrin was right the sun was recharging us even Aldrin didn’t look so deathly
pale. His skin regaining colour as we both tried not to move, letting the sun beam down on our legs, the
warmth of it creating a warmth inside us both.
Jed had busily still been taking blood but he was becoming frustrated, because our magic dwindling
through out the night the process had slowed dramatically almost to a standstill, it wasn’t until Malika
screeched that they realised the curse was coming back which made me wonder how Pluto was fairing
back at the castle, if he to was reverting back to the way he was.
Jed however didn’t realise the scales returning on his back though we could clearly see them as they
started to return, and it wasn’t until Malika pointed them out when Jed raced to his side. He screech as
his tail returned that when they realised the curse wasn’t broken. That our blood wasn’t working the
way it should.
His anger was like a red hot poker as he stalked toward us, he grips my shoulders shaking me.
“What did you do?” I shake my head, nothing I say will make him believe me, he will just assume it was
the Fae doing like for the last hundred years they blamed us, blamed us for their own sins.
“Fix it” He screams before sinking his teeth into my shoulder, my magic faltering for a second. He drops
me to the ground and I don’t move thankful to be under the sun again, this time completely though. I
was bleeding profusely from my shoulder as my blood coated my skin. Aldrin tries stemming the
bleeding as my life’s blood leaves me. Jed gasps as my magic runs through him, the scales
disappearing as he looks up at the sun.
“Malika drink from her, we need to keep them alive if it is to remain” He says just as Malika storms over
to me his teeth sinking into the same spot making me scream as his teeth slice through my skin. Aldrin
pulling on me trying to get me out of his grasp as he drinks deeply, so much I felt the blood leaving my
body as I became crumpling heap on the floor as he drops me. Aldrin pulls me to a sitting position his
arms holding me up as I leaned on him.
More men stepping forward in panic reaching for me, reaching for Aldrin as they try to get our blood.
“It’s the curse, it isn’t broken, we can’t break the curse only King Darshan can” Aldrin yells at them. Jed
freezes looking around before his eyes go to us.
“What do you mean?” He demands as the dragons suddenly step aside letting him walk back through
to us.
“The curse was caused because of the dragons, you cursed yourselves only his sacrifice will end it”
Aldrin tells him, I could barely sit up my body going limp from the blood loss.
“You’re lying the curse was caused by that Fae bitch Blaire, everyone knows that” Jed says punching
him and knocking him to the ground. My head smacks the rock on which we lay,
“Give her blood we need her, we can’t let her die” Jed says and Malika shoves past the three dragons
that were about to attack us. He bites his wrist before grabbing my hair forcing my head back, his blood
filling my mouth healing the wound, when I grab his wrist, he seems amused for a second. Little does
he know his blood was strengthening me, giving me power the more I drink from him.
“Dragon whores” Malika says.
“She is pregnant you fool, your slowly killing her and their baby” Aldrin says getting on his hands and
knees. Jed stops sniffing the air and so does Malika.
He storms back over ripping me to my feet before tugging up my lose shirt which belonged to one of
my mates. He gasps before dropping me.
“You’re pregnant?” He says before pacing back and forth.
“They are going to kill us, how did you not know she was carrying their young” Malika says but he still
hadn’t moved his wrist away instead he bit his other wrist as his fear took over. He hands it to me and I
lock eyes with Aldrin who nods looking to his wrist. I grab it biting down and Malika groans, I could taste
his fear in his blood, it was disgusting, and I wanted to pull my lips away, my gag reflex kicking in from
the now foul taste of his fear. I pull away knowing if I don’t I will bring it back up.
“We leave on dusk we will have to sneak her out, they have been circling for hours already trying to find
a way in, but this makes sense now, why they haven’t entered they probably worried we are going to
kill her if they burst in” Jed says looking to the sky.
Malika nods leaving me on the ground at his feet, when I see the Dragon chained to wall watching me,
curiously. His eyes inquisitive.
“We will take her through the back of the cave as soon as the sun goes down” Jed says looking behind
us and I see a crack through the wall.
“We will need a distraction though” He says looking back around the castle at all the men. Malika and
Jed walking off when the dragons come closer again. I scream pushing back forgetting the dragon
chained to wall and so does Aldrin, I scream when one reaches for me.
The dragon against the wall lunges to attack us only he doesn’t instead his talon piercing through the
chest of the man that reached for me ripping him closer before he bites into him, half his arm being
ripped off, the noise was sickening, his blood spraying everywhere while he screamed the other men
jump back and Jed rushes forward just in time to see the Dragon eat him in another bite before I feel
heat rush past me, the dragon throwing fire toward those that approached us, his tail wrapping around
Aldrin and I pulling us back and out of the way of the flames.
Jed looks to us in panic as the Dragon shields us from him and by the look on his face, he looked like
he thought the Dragon was going to kill us too.
“Don’t move” He says his eyes darting to us. The Dragon roars loudly the noise reverberating of the
cave walls. Before a roar from outside answers, it making everyone look up, Aldrin and I look to each
other.
“Is that your kings?” Aldrin whispers before I hear a voice flit through my head.
“My son is coming for you” I look to the dragon he looked exhausted as his head slumps, Aldrin
presses his hand on the dragon trying to get up and away from him, while Jed and Malika and the rest
all start rushing around panicked, Malika shifting his eyes going to the cave entrance.
I stare at Aldrin and see a grin split onto his face, while I look at his hands covered in soot.
“Aldrin” I call just as I look down and notice the smallest fleck of gold on the dragons scales. I wipe my
hands over his scales the soot coming off revealing his scales weren’t black but gold, gold Silas, gold
of the king.
The frail man who asked about Pluto hisses at us trying to get our attention. The Dragon looks up
growling at him, but he puts up his hands in surrender.
“I mean her no harm crazy one” He says, and I realise none them knew who he was, no one had
recognised the dragon chained to the wall much to weak to do anything,
“I help you; can you take me to my brother?” He asks. I nod but he was already turning back, scales
appearing on his face.
“Quick come, come, there is a back entrance” He says waving us forward. Aldrin gets up trusting him,
like what choice did we have but to follow. When suddenly all hell breaks loose, the entire mountain
shaking rocks and dust falling from the roof covering everyone and everything as it shook violently.
Aldrin grabs my arm and we both make a run for it when the kings tail wraps around me pulling me
back to his side.
“Go Aldrin, run” He hesitates when the dragon throws fire at him, giving him no choice.
The dragon lifts his head pressing it to my stomach and his eyes looked sad.
“You’re king Darshan, my father-in-law, aren’t you?” He nods his big dragon head. Looking to the exit
when I see Jed rushing toward us while the other dragons start shifting, fighting the kings that were
ripping them out of the cave, and I see Dragus run through the entrance, his eyes instantly finding
mine. I feel my magic surge as Jed growls intending to retrieve me before I feel the cold smooth handle
of my sword slip through my fingers, my magic coming back to life. Darshan lets me go just in time for
me to Pivot my sword cutting straight down his chest making him jump back, rage consuming him as
he jumps back, before I see him suck in a breath, my eyes going to Dragus and Silas as they hear the
screech from the dragon behind me as he rips himself from his chains. Red hot heat surging towards
me before it is suddenly blocked by scales.
King Darshan blocking the flames as they hurdled towards me, a roar leaving him as he spins around
chomping Jed in half before eating him.
Everything happening so quickly, and I see what’s left of the Dragons make a run for it. He was huge,
curled up on the ground he looked like the rest until he stood taking up half the cave, but I could feel he
was weak, feel his aura dim he should have been gold like Silas, but his aura was grey, the grey of
death.
Dragons start attacking him, while I see Matitus and Silas trying to get to us and I could feel Silas
excitement through the bond recognising his father instantly. His tail swinging and I duck out the way
before climbing up on the rock we were perched on letting my wings free. My magic fizzling slightly
before surging like it was trying to build itself up. I look to the ceiling wondering if I would make it when
a fireball erupts the deafening noise of Dragons screaming as Silas breathes hell fire through the cave,
his father blocking it from touching me. The cave goes silent beside the moaning and groaning of the
beasts burning on the ground.
“Father” Silas calls out to him, the dragons head whips in his direction and he whimpers before turning
to me, his eyes going to the blade in my hand, I step back.
“No” I gasp knowing what he wants me to do.
“Please it’s the only way, I need to pay for my sins little Aziza, I won’t have my grandchild pay them for
me” His voice flicking in my head like a whisper as his power starts to fizzle.
I feel tears slip down my face a tortured look in his eyes as they flicker losing their light.
“Please” he gasps out in my head, I could hear them getting closer running toward us, feel Silas relief
at seeing I am fine and excitement at finding his father.
I raise my sword. Silas scream breaking my heart as he screams “Elora no” I plunge my sword into his
chest, he grunts before a sigh leaves him, his body transforming to man as he stumbles into me so
quickly, I almost lose my footing as he leans his weight onto me. His arms draped over my shoulders
heavily.
“Thank you” He gasps before I watch his Aura go white, his life leaving this world and going to the next.
I feel silas’s pain smash into me, hitting me like a wave of pure anguish as he roars. My legs giving out
from under me at his fathers weight, just as Silas reached us ripping his father off the blade. My sword
retracting as my magic fizzles out having used it to kill his father.novelbin
Silas clutches his fathers frail dead body before his eyes snap to me. Burning hatred shining back at
me, he growls dropping his father before stalking towards me as I scramble backwards on my hands
and knees, I see Matitus rushing over.
“Did you know who he was?” Silas asks and I feel tears brim, I look to King Darshan tears welling in my
eyes. “He told”- My words get cut off as he grabs me, his entire body trembling, his fist raising when
suddenly Matitus and Dragus grab him ripping him away.
“She fucking knew” He screams fighting against them.
“Silas she is our mate” Matitus tell him.
“I don’t fucking care, I have lost everything because her, fucking everything, I gave up everything and
she fucking killed him” he bellows tossing them off like they are nothing.
I scream trying to get up and make a run for it when he rips me back by my hair. I clutch his hand trying
to free myself as I feel my hair being ripped from my scalp.
“Silas she is pregnant” Dragus screams, his fear hitting me. When Silas lets go, his rage burning hotter
than anything I have ever felt before, his hatred seeping into me so cold it chilled my bones.
He steps forward, his hand grabbing my throat.
“After our child is born, you leave and I never want to see you again”
“Silas!” I cry
“No, you have taken everything from me. You leave Elora, but you won’t be leaving with my child” He
says before turning on his heel and walking out of the cave.
