Chapter 66

• Ariana's POV
• "He's got me too," Damien said from beside me and then Sam, his gaze pinned me on the spot and he didn't take his eyes away, not even to acknowledge his friend's words, he rose, slowly from the ground and winced, I quickly ran to him, "are you okay?" I ran my hands all over him to assure myself that he was fully recovered, he held my hands to stop me, "I'm okay" he said simply still holding my gaze, I tried to read his thoughts but he was staring at me blankly, he was probably still hurt by my betrayal, my heart echoed his pain, there was so much left for is to talk about and so much yearning too for each other but all of that will have to wait, until Chase is dead, neither of us can find peace, I slowly went closer to Chase, ", he's got me" Chase nodded, "I see, only death awaits you too" he waved his hand for his men to attack us and the came, from all corners, Damien growled, teeth bared and launched into fight, snapping and breaking bones, I tilt my neck and gust of wind came from no where, sweeping the men off the feet and flung them on the ground, some of them hit their backs against a tree, some head their head against a rock and died immediately, "go, get her" Chase screamed angrily not ready to give up, I heard Dylan growled beside me as he charged at them, they were no match for him as his speed and strength was twice their own, seeing how his men kept falling beside him and dying made Chase more furious, some of the men realized that they were fighting a lost cause and made for it, I squinted my eyes and immediately, fire caught right in front of them burning away their escape route, glancing at each other and seeing their doom, ran to me and fell at my feet, "please, save us, we pledge our loyalty to the Alpha, we don't want to die"
• Chase's face looked aghast by their betrayal, drawing out his sword he stabbed one of them but before he could stab another, Damien kicked the sword away from his hands, I tried to use my magic to get the sword from his hand but was surprised when it didn't work on him, in a flash, he was beside me and held his sword against my throat, "I'll slit her throat if you come near me" Dylan had just killed one of the men who had not pledged to him and turned to see the situation I was in, his eyes narrowed fiercely, "if you hurt her..." He began but Chase cut him short, "I'll kill ber if you move an inch, her magic doesn't work on me, all thanks to Eric, do you hear that? You can't hurt me" his sword dug into my flesh and I felt blood trickled, Dylan sighted it too and growled, he gazed steadily at me, his face was calm and his eyes reassuring, telling me to be still, I acknowledged his message my closing my eyes and then opening it, I know he won't let any harm come to me, he has always been my savior, "Chase!!!" He screamed and then it happened so fast, one moment, Chase was holding a sword against my neck, and the next moment, Dylan's hand had replaced my neck, pushing me to the side, I fell to the ground and Samantha was beside me in a jiffy, when next I looked up, Dylan was holding Chase heart in his hand and Chase slowly fell down with a shocked expression, he wasn't expecting what just hit him, and then, he fell to the ground, lifeless. Dylan howled and Damien howled after him, and then, all the wolves that had pledged loyalty to Dylan howled and then bowed to him. In a moment, he was beside me, I ran my hands over his bloody face, "are you okay?" He smiled, "I am Dylan Sabastine, and I am okay because a witch revived me" I was crying and laughing at the same time, oh, yes, he's Dylan Sabastine and he's almost invincible, "that witch had once tried to kill you, I'm so sorry" my voice broke and he pulled me into his arms as tears streamed down my cheeks, "I've cost you so much pain, I'm sorry" he placed a finger on my lips, "shhh, stop saying sorry, just show me how sorry you are" I stared at him in confusion until he tapped his lips, oh! He meant I should kiss him, I smiled, that's easy, I pulled his head down and kisses him, I only planned on a smack on his lips but he growled and deepened the kiss, we repeatedly drew apart at Damien's repeated clearing of his throat, he was shifting on one foot to the other while Sam was smiling with tears in her eyes, I saw she and Damien glanced at each other before looking away as two red spots showed on her cheeks.
