You Kissed My Soul novel Chapter 57

From here onwards it’s my Pov. I will change this at the time of editing the story.

“I see something” everyone’s breath hitched when out of nowhere Cyreana enters the room where Dylan and everyone were training. Dylan was testing his new powers with the other witches. The elemental powers that he had and that he got seems to have tremendous energy one could ever imagine. Even in his human form, he defeated his own werewolves warriors, even his beta Blake and two of the witches that are the twin sisters Amber and Venus Sueffer.

“I can see Edna!” Cyreana spoke in an undertone but she forgot that the people before were her not some normal human but werewolves and witches. The werewolves easily heard what she just said and all of a sudden loud throaty growls of wolves was heard as the anger hearing the name of their enemy resurfaced the pain and loss of their family members and even their Queen.

Dylan though looked as if he was ready to kill maintained his calm and closed his eyes with his hands forming a tight fist as if he was trying to control all his emotions. Surely though, it was hard for Dylan out of all the wolves to maintain such a demeanor after losing his love of his life out of his sight. He wanted nothing but to rip the throat of the enemy who had the audacity to even touch his mate.

“What do you see?” asked Dylan in a taut voice from which one could easily tell that he was anything but calm.

Cyreana closed her eyes as she raised her hands up in the air and concentrated on her vision.

“Some strange animals. Yes! animals. No! wait! It’s not animals. Is it human? Oh my lord! They look horrible! I can’t tell you what they are but I see Edna. She is sitting in the middle of a magic ring circle chanting something. The animals or should I say beast are circling her up as if they are guarding her. Wait! the beast is growing?” Cyreana said and jerked up from her position as she crunched down because of the energy she put on to see that vision.

“Cyreana! Are you alright?” Amber walked to her and held her by her arms inspecting her face.

“You alright?” Dylan asked worriedly.

“Ya! Yes my lord! I’m fine” Cyreana looked at Amber and smiled gently t her before reassuring her that she was alright. She then gently pushing past her walked to the window transom window and she pulled the pushed the glass narrow door of the window open letting in the fresh air and light. People who stood there and looked at her actions thought that maybe she needed air and energy after the incident that happened a few seconds ago but little did they know what was particularly going on. Cyreana was actually waiting for her Raven to come to her.

Dylan seemed to be getting impatient as Cyreana stood near the window doing nothing. It was the matter of his mate and kingdom, he couldn’t just pretend not to be patient when everything was so out of place before his eyes. As he opened his mouth ready to ask what Cyreana was doing, he chose to shut his mouth when he saw a strange looking raven with red eyes flying up to Cyreana and it sat on Cyreana forearm. The Raven lifted its wings in the air and fluttered it making a short, repeated shrill calls as if it was talking to Cyreana. Even though it looked weird, the people present in the room watched silently paying attention to the scenario that was going on before them.

Cyreana lifted her other arm and chanted something and people watched as the Raven literally owed to her before disappearing into her forearm forming a small tattoo on her wrist.

“Cyreana?” Venus spoke for the first time. Venus was closest than any other witches to Cyreana. She knew her and she knew her Raven too but she knew that Cyreana never uses her Raven as it consumes lots of her energy making her weak. So, guessing from what just happened Cyreana used the Raven for the first time after decades in order to do something. Now, Venus was eager to know what Cyreana has got.

“My Queen has been found” Cyreana turned around and said with a smirk on her face. Her eyes were glowing victoriously as if she achieved the biggest success in her life and which she surely did.

“I found where our luna is!” she said almost in a tremulous voice showing how excited she was.

Venus and Amber blinked their eyes at her and as if it processed what just happened both of them turned to look at Dylan. All of a sudden, an uncertain silence fell in the room. Everybody stood shocked by the sudden news. They were probably waiting for their king to show any emotions and command them what to do. On the other hand, Black stood up and for the first time wiggled its tail happily after a long time. It was now Dylan’s turn. As everybody waited for his commands, he closed his eyes and smirked.

“Let’s go then!” as soon as the words came out of his mouth the room boomed with people cheering and howling ready for the war. They looked enthusiastic for the war. It was just not for the matter to win or loss but now it was for revenge. Finally, they will be getting that revenge which they had buried inside their heart after their king and queen were killed. Not only that, but they lost their near and dear ones recently. They were innocent, and they didn’t deserve death. To the top of that, the ‘Bitch Witch’ as they call her has the audacity to come back in their life and abduct their new Queen before them. They wanted blood. Not just anyone’s but Edna’s blood and they were hellbound to put that witch to death even if it cost their lives. That witch needs to die. They will make sure of it.

Aderyn watched as the wicked witch performed type of magic upon those beasts. She noticed as the beasts visibly grew double of their size looking even more intimidating and powerful. The bloody smell made Aderyn nauseous all of a sudden. The more they grew the more the bloody smell erupted from their body and mouth. Aderyn’s nose cringed up as one of the beasts lowered its head and sniffed Aderyn’s face. Saliva mixed with blood fell out of that beast’s mouth on Aderyn’s face and she shrieked in disgust wanting nothing but to get away from those stinky animals.

“Get away from her!” roared Edna’s voice. The beast growled and made a low rumbling sound before stepping back from Aderyn’s tied form. Aderyn couldn’t be more grateful that the beast was away from her face. If it stood, even more, closer to her, then she was sure that she would definitely throw up on herself as she was held tied down. Now, she was feeling weak. Her captivators didn’t even feed her from the day she had been captured by them and this fact annoyed and irritated her even more. All she wanted was something sharp for her to get her out of that stupid rope. She was an assassin for god’s sake. There was no rope made in this world which could tie her down. But the fact that, she was constantly surrounded and guarded by those beasts made her watch her moves. The last thing she wished was the beast to eat her alive.

So, patiently she waited. She knew that Dylan wouldn’t let Edna keep her away from him very long. She had her faith in him and only the almighty’s knew what she was feeling being tied down and surrounded by beasts who stank like deceased and decaying body. Though, she had no idea what was going on Dylan’s mind because the witch before her had somehow detached the mind link between him and Dylan still she could feel something. Some type of emotions assuring her that something big was coming her way. Something was going to happen. And judging from her pounding heartbeat and strange shivers she assumed it was Dylan. He must be already out in search of her. Now all she wanted was to see his face and closer to him. She wanted to confess something to both Dylan and Black. In all this period of time, she has come to the point that she no longer can stay away from them. Both of them play a vital role in her life and she has realized her feelings and emotions for them which is yet to confessed by her to them.

She must do it, because of the deserves to know about her feeling. And she made up her mind that she will not die until she confesses her feeling. Her eyes rolled back and a sigh escaped her mouth as she felt her body aching because of the uncomfortable position. She tried to twitch her body feeling her sore back muscle.

“Is it not a comfortable position for you?” the wicked witch singsong and Aderyn rolled her eyes muttering colorful words under her breath.

“Should I bring you a king sized bed and soft pillows for your aid, your highness?“Edna walked over to Aderyn’s tied down self and placed her head next to Aderyn’s staring into her eyes. Aderyn couldn’t help but look at her bloody wounded face.

“Don’t look at it!” bellowed Edna’s voice as she got up and slapped hard on Aderyn’s face.

Aderyn hissed in pain and closed her eyes not because of pain but the anger she felt.The previous Aderyn who had no emotions killed people and slaughtered life mercilessly began to surface on Aderyn’s face. Edna took a step back when she saw the look on Aderyn’s face. A strange coloured light emerged out of her body as a small tattoo like circular mark appeared on Aderyn’s forehead and her eyes changed into dark black as she looked monstrous scaring Edna.

“What is this?” Edna thought as she looked at Aderyn’s inhumane form. Undoubtedly, Aderyn looked vicious and the fact that she didn’t even realize it made Edna wonder what was going on. This was a new sight before her. Never had she ever saw a human looking like this or was it...

Edna looked at the mark on Aderyn’s look and then she realized that Aderyn had already been marked by the king and judging from the tattoo like mark on her forehead she has already been accepted by the werewolf kingdom. That only means, Aderyn is no longer a simple normal human. Though not mated, Aderyn has got some beastly powers from her mate which differentiates her from another human. But as she is a human, the powers are of no match if she were a werewolf. Her power would have increased the double of now if she was a werewolf. It would have been hard for Edna to keep Aderyn in place or keep her captivated for a long time.

“I see” Edna muttered to herself all of a sudden understanding that anger triggers the power within Aderyn and she must learn to control it before the beastly power controls her body. But Aderyn’s power was enough to rip the throat of Edna if she wasn’t cautious around her. She made sure not to make Aderyn angry further because she knew Aderyn had no idea about the power nor did she knew how to use it. Triggering her anger would only cause Edna’s own downfall.

“Now, Now look what time it is!” Edna sang trying to change the topic.

As soon as she said that she noticed as Aderyn’s eye changed back to its normal colour and size and she blinked several times at her to adjust her eyes to the light.

“Time to celebrate!” Edna sang and with her magic brought out a flute and a bottle of wine. She gestured the flute to Aderyn but Aderyn huffed and looked the other side declining her offer. Edna shrugged her shoulder and poured an amount into the flute before she raised her flute in the air for toasting by herself “Cheers for my victory!” she sang wickedly with that wicked evil glow in that chatoyance like eyes of hers.

Edna took the flute to her mouth and gulped down the red wine which was actually the blood of some creature that she claimed gave enormous power to her. She danced happily and jumped and hopped on one foot over those candles triumphantly. Aderyn wondered what made her so happy all of a sudden that she was hopping and dancing making merry. Little did Aderyn knew that a cruel and vicious idea of Edna wanting to kill Aderyn before the sunrise had formed in her head.

Seeing those powers, Edna had set her mind that now she would no longer wait to kill Dylan when she can destroy him by killing his mate and gaining her powers making herself, even more, stronger and she had planned it to do before the sunrise. Edna was so happy and busy in merry making that she didn’t even sense it coming.

Few miles away, the wild wolves ran across the meadows and streams of the river.The other wild animals watched and some even hide frightened to see not one but thousands of carnivores wolves running like a gust of the wind towards a direction. What looked like a black wolf but not exactly a wolf was leading the massive pack as they sprinted into the woods and vanished away in the dense mass of trees. Little did Edna know that her end was coming because the king himself was leading his pack to conquer the parts of the forest to reach his beloved.
