Serena

The smell of blood, metal, and burning wood filled my nostrils as soon as I left the forest floor. As

opposed to earlier, the scene now in the Meadows was close to worrisome. There were more wounded

faes, werewolves and lycans everywhere I looked, but at least, the good side here was that there were

still zero deaths.

I figured I had to act fast now before the count changes to times ten.

Catching my husband’s scent, I ran towards where he was. I saw him with Queen Adna, seriously

talking despite the many spears surrounding him. I felt great relief wash over me thinking that he was

now safe from Nevannir. He won their fight, but now I taught, maybe he was asking for more action with

him in the same platform as my aunt.

Meters away, I also noticed my father fighting with Geraden. He looked epic in his wolf form: a

combination of black and brown. I felt a rush of pride for him.

‘Serena, now,’ Aero told me through mind-link. He must have sensed my presence. I tossed him a look,

saw him nod, so I nodded back. I knew instantly what he was talking about.

My paws stretched, my body followed, and then, on top of my lungs, I howled. The sound was a

hundred times as loud as before; its waves hitting each and everyone in the battlefield both fae and

werewolf. This paused their fights—Geraden and my father included—and they all looked at me in

confusion and awe.

I shifted back to my human form and raised my hands. The words in my projection spell rushed out

from my lips. They transformed into mist, climbing up the sky and coloring it with neon green and

purple again.

With no one now to block my spell, pictures of the past started materializing. First, it showed Geraden

and King Alduin arguing, then the gruesome happened. I heard Queen Adna cry out as Sofia delivered

the first blow. Then, saw her kneel down in anguish as Geraden finished the job. My husband was

thoughtful enough to give her space. He just stood there and remained observant.

I directed my attention to the culprit. His face was as white as a ghost. My father took this as an

opportunity to immobilize him, catching him off-guard by ramming his wolf head against Geraden’s

limping body.

He slammed hard on the ground. Blood spilled forth from inside his helm. He tried to summon a spell Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

with his right hand but was unable to when my father tore this limb off of his body.

I heard his high-pitched cry and took delight hearing it.

He tried another spell with his left hand, but again, the same treatment was given. My father’s wolf spat

out his second arm like a worthless bone some distance away. Blood on his fangs dripped onto the

ground. It was a horrifying sight for the fae knights yet they didn’t stop him. They actually gave him

room, circling both of them as if this battle now highlighted their match.

Once I showed everything important to the faes and to my aunt, I ceased my projection spell and

turned my attention to the platform wherein Queen Adna was still bawling her eyes out.

I poofed myself there and stood right next to my husband.

“Auntie,” I muttered cautiously. My heart sank seeing her like this. She didn’t deserve this kind of

treachery. She didn’t deserve this kind of pain.

After tossing Aero a glance, I neared her and knelt down to her level.

“I’m sorry you had to see that, auntie. I’m sorry you had to go through the pain of losing uncle again,” I

stated softly. I wanted to console her, so I reached out to her lowered head and pressed it close to my

chest. “I really am sorry.”

She didn’t reject me. She just continued to cry.

“I want you to know who the murderer truly is. It is the only way to stop this war. The only way to avoid

more deaths.”

“Serena…” Weakly, she called. Her head lifted up a bit and her wet eyes met mine. “All this time, I had

been so blind.” Her voice trembled and so did her lips. I held her shoulders and it felt cold.

“I couldn’t believe Geraden and Athyllane would do this to me.”

I decided to give her a warm hug. At least, this calmed her.

“He is clouded by greed and hatred, auntie. Sofia…or Athyllane is the same.”

“Your mother was right. You truly are my salvation,” she replied.

I smiled briefly at this.

“Geraden, he needs to be punished, auntie,” I then stated, pulling back to meet her eyes again.

This time, the sadness from them changed to silent fury.

“I shall punish him myself,” she stated, now determined for justice.

With a wave of her hand, a cloud-like platform lifted us up including Aero. Queen Adna stood up whilst

wiping her tears dry. I followed, thoughtfully assisted by my husband.

Together, we rode the floating platform to where the fight of Geraden and my father took place.

Once we arrived, the witnesses of werewolves, lycans, and fae knights widened the area. They all knelt

in deference to us. My father too, or at least that’s what it looked in his beast form.

Queen Adna lowered the platform. When it touched the ground, it disappeared. She stepped forward

towards Geraden’s pitiful form. Despite already caught red-handed, he showed no sign of remorse. He

just flashed the queen a weak, bloody grin, looking still proud of himself.

The prick.

He tried to speak, yet no voice would come out. My father sure made a good job wounding his throat

with his claws.

“High Elder Geraden,” she started, her voice full of contempt. “For killing your own brother, my mate…”

Her voice shook. I quickly went to her side and squeezed her shoulder. She nodded at me and

recollected herself. “For inciting war against Phanteon and for the other ghastly deeds you committed,

you will be stripped of your title as king of Ehnrelil.”

She raised her hands up and something inside Geraden left. It was a faint glow of a crown.

“B…t…ch…” he actually managed to say and gave both of us a glare.

“For your sins!” Queen Adna’s voice heightened, “You will be condemned to death!”

From her right hand, there appeared a miniature version of Ellerion. As my bedtime song goes, only fae

queen’s could possess such baby swords. My mother was resourceful in adding this tidbit just to

educate me.

“And I shall see to it that that happens!” she added and pointed the glowing sword towards Geraden.

Another miniature Ellerion appeared directly above his throat. At Queen Adna’s cue, it moved and

drove itself towards that very spot, much like what he did towards King Alduin.

′What a perfect way to avenge his death,′ I thought to myself. It may not fill the gap of losing her mate

but finally, she got her closure.

With the contact of the sword and Geraden’s flesh, his body started to disintegrate. We watched as he

wriggled and groaned, trying to fight off his condition. I had no doubt all of us who witnessed felt no

guilt when his face finally turned to dust.

A pregnant pause enveloped the whole Meadows. Even the wind died down too. Then, Queen Adna

gestured for me and Aero to stand with her.

After my husband neared us and held my hand, her cloud-like platform appeared again and we floated

in just enough height to see the whole fields filled with our people.

“All of those who are present here today, know this,” Queen Adna started whilst stepping forward. “This

pointless war is over!”

Instantly, there was a roaring cry of happiness from the faes. This was augmented with a jubilant howl

of the werewolves and lycans.

Aero and I locked pleased gazes and he squeezed my hand.

“The Kingdom of Ehnrelil and the Kingdom of Phanteon will forever be allies. Our Houses will forever

become one,” Queen Adna went on to add. “I shall step down as queen and a new queen shall rise.”

She gestured to me with her hand and invited me to come forward.

‘Go, Serena,’ Aero encouraged me through mind-link.

“Queen Serena, half-fae, half-wolf,” Queen Adna stated when we held hands. “She will lead us to a

new light, a new life where love and peace reigns.”

My chest felt like exploding at the suddenness of her news. I turned to her slightly and tugged her arm.

“You are too generous, auntie, but I honestly can’t accept your offer. I have my own responsibilities to

attend to in Phanteon,” I told her.

She responded with a soft, understanding smile.

“Don’t worry, until you have an heir, I will be filling in your seat. Sounds good right?”

I chewed the inside of my cheek and glanced at Aero. One nod from him made me confident.

“Yes, that sounds just right,” I answered her.

“Hail to the Alpha King! Hail to the Luna! Hail Queen Adna!” Elijah, my father, Adamar and Adaen

shouted. The rest chorused with the same words. It was so loud it probably reached all the borders of

the other realms.

My aunt waved once, took a bow, and stepped back allowing Aero and I to have the spotlight.

We waved too and flashed a really big smile.

‘This felt good,’ I told myself. Victory was truly sweet.

“Good job, my queen,” Aero told me, squeezing my hand again. His eyes were full of love and pure

adoration.

I winked at him and squeezed back.

“Right back at you, my king,” I said.

‘If you don’t want two thrones then let’s get busy, Serena,’ he mind-linked at me. ‘When is that fae fever

you talked about again?’

I chuckled. ‘Hmm, roughly twenty-eight days from now.’

‘Good,’ he winked back.

‘Let’s build a peaceful home before our family grows, Aero,’ I told him, showing him a tender look.

‘Yes,’ he answered without delay.

“Together,” I said.

“Together,” he replied and without hesitation, pulled me close and gave me a toe-curling kiss. The

cheers and howls of our people grew louder in response to this.

The End.

Elijah

“Would you look at that,” I exclaimed, looking at my brother and his wife smooching like nobody was

watching.

Beside me, Hale, slightly dirty and with only a scratch on his face, chuckled and shook his head.

“Everyone is happy,” I added and turned to him, “Are you happy?”

“Of course I am,” he simply answered, “I did my job correctly right?”

I grinned. “Yes, you did.”

I remembered that time when I asked him to act as Serena’s possible suitor just to provoke my brother

and make him realize his feelings for her. Lord Hale easily accepted my proposal, not wanting to let this

opportunity pass.

“But you overdid your acting a bit when you used your time freeze that night when Geraden visited

Phanteon,” I pointed out to him.

“Hm,” he just shrugged his shoulders, “it’s a necessary act to get the faes’ trust.”

I couldn’t hold back a chuckle.

“You really are suicidal, Lord Hale.”

“I did what you asked, Your Highness. Now, it’s my time to collect payment,” he reminded.

“Of course,” I nodded. “I already gave you the Matrix ticket as payment for Rhea’s release. I’ll arrange

General Halcynos to meet you as payment for your acting services.”

“Adequate,” he replied, slowly moving away from me.

“But do you really think he’ll have the answer you’ve been looking for?” I added.

He paused from walking and showed me his profile. “That’s for me to find out, Your Highness. Say

goodbye to those lovebirds for me.”

I crossed my arms over my chest, watched my brother still smooching with Serena, and released a

sigh. I think it’s time for me to see my bride…
