Chapter 259: IT’S SERAPHINA!

Chapter 259 IT’S SERAPHINA!

And that was it. That was the last stroke. Hearing Lucious demand her head shattered Haven’s heart completely.

Growls, roars and then shouts from both parties thundered in her ears as the war broke out. The werewolves were going to take all the angels come what may, and the Shadow Guards refused to go down without a fight.

“Take her and get out of here!!!” Greg had yelled to Aeon as the werewolves were fast approaching them with full speed. It won’t take minutes more before they reached.

“Get out of here!!” He yelled one more time at Aeon who nodded quickly and dragged a dumbfounded Haven away. As they ran, the ground was slowly covered with what looked like black smoke.

Haven saw the Shadow guards conjure something which looked like shadow tendrils and morphed them into weapons. She saw more using the shadows to wrap themselves up like armors and others using their shadow to envelope the whole place till it was dark as night.

She now knew where they got their name from.

The shadow guards conjured weapons from their shadow tendrils and used it to fight the incoming werewolves. The clashing of weapons and vicious growls of angry wolves soon filled up Haven’s ears.

Men screaming in agony and wolves growling as they ripped flesh apart together with others yelling out orders were the only sound that she could hear as she ran along side Aeon. Haven had never felt as afraid as she did in that moment. She couldn’t see a thing yet she could clearly imagine the hell that was going on around her.

She stumbled and almost fell a few times because of the black smoke blocking her vision. The shadow warriors were probably using it to block the wolves vision, or so they thought.

Didn’t they know werewolves had the ability to see in the dark?

Aeon was there to help her every single time she stumbled though. They soon left the vicinity of the smoke and even as Haven looked back, she could only see the black smoke covering the horizon.

“Let’s go” Aeon urged pulling her along. He had to take her somewhere safe.

War had broken out and everyone knew their fate. Guardian Angels were being escorted by shadow warriors and cries rang from everywhere. Aeon and Haven ran along the villagers as they headed in the direction of the Frosty River.

“There’s this underground tunnel that was built for situations like these” Aeon yelled amidst the noise. “I’ll take your there and return to the field. Once everything settles down I’ll be back for you”

“No..” Haven subconsciously held onto his arm “No, please. Don’t leave me”

Aeon saw a tear dropped down her cheeks. She was so scared.

“I’ll have to leave. More guards are needed at the border, I have to help out” He caressed her cheeks and wiped off the tear.

“Don’t worry, okay? I’ll come back for you,” He smiled at her and at that moment, Aeon wanted nothing more than to kiss her.

“I promise” He added and lowered himself at the same time, someone else bumped into them in a hurry and Haven found herself sighing in relief.

“I’m so sorry” The intruder quickly apologized. The intruder’s voice sounded so familiar that Haven turned to see who it was. Her eyes widened in surprise.

“You??” Haven was a bit surprised to see Katie and Owen here too.

“Oh, Haven!” Katie was equally surprised to see Haven too. She hugged her and cried. “Thank goodness you’re fine”

Haven gritted her teeth and pushed her away “ Don’t you dare touch me!”

“Haven?” Katie looked a bit hurt. Beside her, Owen frowned at Haven but Haven didn’t care.

“Why are you being hostile to me?”

“Seriously? You have the nerve to ask that?” Haven felt like laughing “You ratted me out!! You.. you always do this! Why must you have to betray me every single time?!”

Katie looked down in guilt “I’m sorry Haven. I really didn’t mean to. I heard the werewolves demand and I didn’t know what to do. You had told me you were his mate, remember? So I assumed maybe it really was you they were searching for. I really didn’t mean any harm, please believe me.”

“You had told me not to mention me being his mate to any one, did you forget that too?” Haven shook her head. Katie had disappointed her once more.

“You pretended like you cared only for you to stab me in the back—”

“We don’t have time for this” Aeon interrupted them. More and more of the guards were already returning to the field. He needed to go there too. “Let’s go, Haven”

“I’m sorry” Katie apologized but Haven and Aeon were already leaving. They hadn’t taken steps forward when something suddenly exploded followed by people’s screams.

“What was that?” Haven and Katie asked simultaneously.

“FIRE! THERE’S FIRE, RUN!!!” Someone yelled in alarm and everyone began to scatter. Aeon dragged Haven along when someone else shouted.

“The witch! She’s here!!”

“Oh my goddess. Seraphina is here!!” A woman screeched in horror.

“It’s Seraphina!!”

“The witch is setting the village on fire! Run!!”

Seraphina? Haven stopped abruptly.

“Haven—

“Seraphina is here? Where is she?”

“Haven we need to get out of here!” Aeon yelled with urgency and tried to pull her again.

“No! I need to see Seraphina. Seraphina is my friend. I know her” Haven looked around and all she could see was blazing fire

Was Seraphina really the one doing this?

“Let’s go Haven!” Aeon yelled even louder.

“No, leave me I need to find Seraphina. She knows me. If she’s really the one setting this place on fire, I’ll ask her to stop. She’ll stop the fire.” Haven cried seeing some people screaming in agony as they got cut up in the fire.

The stench of burning flesh filled her nostrils.

Aeon groaned in frustration “Damn, what is wrong with you woman?! Do you really want to stay here and die?! Let’s go!” He dragged her angrily.

“Ahh!! There’s the witch!!” Someone besides Haven pointed and Haven’s head snapped towards the direction.

A woman in robes hovered above the Frosty River, chanting somet

hing with her back turned to Haven. Haven recognized the familiar orange blazing hair immediately.
