Lucian hung up the phone after a long conversation with Michael.The longest conversation they had ever had in their entire existence, because Michael was quite monosyllabic.He could tell, Michael had found the light in his abyss of darkness.But as much as he was happy for his friend's happiness, the shocking news he was telling him was hard for him to process.As much as he wanted to retreat into his safe little world, he knew that was impossible.Michael asked for help from his pack to bring warriors and retrieve the egg before Elizabeth did.That was all well and good, but once the bomb was in their possession, what would they do?Elizabeth wasn't the only one who would covet it, if others found out, if others knew there was a dragon egg in their pack, how would they protect it?They would become the target of many dark beings.Lucian looked out the large window of his office into the garden where two unruly wolf pups were playing with a giggling girl, his little Omega Ophelia.H

Galves wanted to know everything because his daughter's decision not to tell the prince anything seemed more and more right to him.What king, what prince, what nothing?If he could get his hands on that egg, he would be the fucking master of the world.As if it were so easy to hatch and control a dragon.- A sacrifice, blood, father, my heart in exchange for going back in there - Nagy put her hand to her chest in obvious fear.- But that's absurd!- If they take your heart, it's impossible for you to return alive, let alone tell others such a dangerous secret…And of course, that was the goal, that no one could return, to keep the treasure safe.Galves understood then.If he wanted this power, he would have to sacrifice his only daughter.- Nagy, can you make a map of the place? Just in case you forget - he told her seriously.- Don't worry, nothing will come out of my mouth.- We will protect you, daughter, this time I will not let you be sacrificed for the clan again.He looked at

When the dagger was plunged into Nagy's chest, Galvez knew he was a problem.He tried to move away, but it was too late, he had walked right into a trap, and the body that should have been resting on the bed turned into bubbles flying through the air.- An illusion - Galvez muttered, gripping the dagger tightly and looking alertly at every corner of the room.- I remember when I was three years old, you began to teach me the world of the illusionist, how to control others by destroying the barriers of their minds.Nagy stepped out of the darkness and faced the man who claimed to be her father with total disillusionment.- Who could believe that the puppeteer had become the puppet? You were so eager to take my heart by proxy that you didn't even realize you had walked into my trap.Nagy said with a half-smile of irony and sadness.- This whole heart thing is a lie, isn't it? - Galvez came to a conclusion- You were just tempting me and testing me. The egg thing, is that a lie too?- Th
107. Your blood is the key
Instead of staying to defend her husband, as soon as she saw things going wrong, she fled with important information that would ensure her continued membership in the clan.Nagy smiled wryly. She didn't know which was worse.But what would be left for the others if they didn't have each other's backs?Anyway, she had ended their love-hate relationship.She understood that the biggest ghost in her heart was her guilt, the thought that she had disappointed her parents and dishonored her clan because of her illness.She sometimes thought that she deserved everything that had happened to her.But now she blamed the guilty.She was not a waste and wanted to be loved and appreciated.The biggest mistake was not being born with a defect but having cold and selfish parents who did not deserve her as a daughter."Come, the Prince is waiting for us at the dock with the warriors and this waste of a mother, he will warn the king and give him the map," Michael approached her from behind and spoke
108. Confrontation
" It's over there," Max said to Elizabeth, looking off into the distance at the silhouette of an island in the middle of the sea.“Are you sure?” she asked looking at the twilight horizon.She didn't like this happening at night because spotting a trap in the dark was trickier, but they couldn't wait until dawn.The Prince was ahead of them, and little by little, they saw a few boats stranded on the shore." I am sure that now, more than ever, I feel his call and power, " he confessed." Everyone get ready," she ordered, "Your Majesty! This is the place, and as you can see, your son has already arrived, so he must have a little surprise for us," Elizabeth approached the monarch." I hope you has come with the best of the best because it is evident that we cannot take the booty without a fight."" It seems so. I will care for my son, and you will find the egg. Then we'll see what happens," he looked at her sharply.He was not such a fool as to be unaware of the woman's plans.She was u
109. The trap
The mouse tried to escape before he was discovered, but it was too late." Cof, cof," the wizard coughed, blood coming out of his mouth." Will you shut up? We will be discovered by your cough. What the hell happened?"" Elizabeth spoke between her teeth and looked at the hut with attention, for apparently, they had been discovered." That lady discovered my trace of magic and attacked him, he confessed pale as he remembered how a snake had run up to his mouse and devoured it on the spot.Both were magical energies, but this lady was not as harmless as she seemed." They're getting away! " another witch shouted as she saw two shadows run out the back door of the hut and into the woods." Max, the egg?" She didn't care about the women, just where was the little dragon he needed." They've got it. The lady put it in a bag she was carrying. That was the last thing I saw!" the spy wizard informed her." Max, damn! Are we going to follow them or what?" Elizabeth shouted at the man standing
110. Slave illusion
BOM!!!!!Suddenly, there was an explosion in the middle of the forest, scaring away all the animals. A column of fire rose up, burning the wood of what had once been the old cabin.Elizabeth crawled along the ground, a safe distance from the fire, and leaned against a tree, breathing heavily.She immediately pulled out a hidden vial of solid blood and drank it, healing her worst wounds instantly.She watched as the fire consumed everything in its path, including the body of her servant, who had not given her time to escape and was trapped in the kitchen.She barely managed to jump through the wooden door and escape into the forest.Thanks to all the defensive spells she had with her, she could get out alive.She had been tricked by nothing more and nothing less than a human trap.She, who despised the creature she once was so much, was only looking for traces of magic and spells, forgetting that there was something as simple as wired explosives.It was as if the very beings she had un
111. This wolf has a mate
She could always rely on magic and look like a weak human, but Elizabeth was anything but weak.Besides, she never played fair; she was full of tricks and traps.She dodged the frontal attacks, always trying to protect her back and not get caught in the middle of the combined attacks.But no matter how skilled she was, fighting three against one was uneven, even more so when she had to fight so fast.She began to accumulate wounds and use up her magical weapons.But Elizabeth realized something, this was a battle of attrition.In reality, these animals didn't seem to be able to land a killing blow on her. It was logical to think so because, in real life, she couldn't withstand such an attack from a panther, a tiger, and a wolf.The illusionist was just trying to scare her with a bluff so that she, the vampire, would be the one to kill her with a fatal blow when she was tired.She didn't want to be fooled again, so she took the test, leaving her defenses a little open. When the panthe
