Chapter 69 - Saved my mate
Sarah.
I have to warn Milano about Grace. I still don't understand how the daughter of werewolves became a witch. She is just an ordinary witch and doesn't have any traces of werewolves. She is definitely not their daughter. She might be the one behind bewitching Milano's dad. But, definitely doesn't have the power to control everyone in this palace. She has someone more powerful than her to support her. Everyone is being affected by their black magic except Aunt Rachel. My mother did her best to protect her sister cum friend. I have to stop Milano before he falls into their trap.
Now I think Mr Buchanan was telling the truth. My mother did ask him to take me to my grandmother's house. She did know that it was all an act of black magic. She wanted to protect me and Mr Buchanan just helped her. He didn't have the idea that I was ill-treated by my own relatives. He did his best and I have been doubting his sincerity. I should tell him everything before it's too late. He is the only one who could help me in this palace.
I tried to talk with Milano but I couldn't. I have to talk to him before anything bad happens. I should call him on his phone. I took my phone and dialed his number and surprisingly it's switched off. He never switches off his phone even on the days of full moon. I clearly remember that he had charged his phone in the morning before we left. I have to find him.
I rushed out of the room but stopped just outside the room. I looked to my right and my left. This is not an ordinary mansion, it's a palace with lots of corridors and rooms. Even the corridor where I am right now has about 10 doors on either side. How will I find out where Milano is? I came through the right side, so if I want to go back and find someone I should go to the right. But Grace went to the left side and she was in a hurry to meet Milano. She definitely knew where he was. So I hurried towards the left side and I again came to a stop where there is another corridor which again goes to the right and left.
I can't just get lost in this maze. I have to save my mate. For the first time I am going to use my mate bond to find out my mate. It's showing to the right and I followed my bond. I walked so fast that I was literally running. Suddenly I felt something strange happening to me. I am feeling dizzy as if I had a lot of drinks. No it's not happening to me, it's happening to my mate. I have to save him. In a matter of a few seconds, I reached outside a door where two men were standing like they were guarding the room. I tried to open the door and they stopped me.
“Sorry madam, you can't go inside.” One of them said,
“Why? Is this a private room?” I asked.
“It's the guest room and Princess Grace is with him. She has ordered not to let anyone inside.” One of the guards said,
“Do you know who I am?” I asked.
“Yes, your highness. You are Princess Jovita.” Both the guards said in unison.
“Then let me in.” I said,
“Sorry, your highness. We can't let you in.”
They stood in front of me and I knew very well that they wouldn't allow me even if I was crowned at this very moment. I am getting the vibes of black magic done on them. But I can't help them right now with my magic. If I use magic, Grace will know that I am also a witch. I have to find some other way to bring Grace out of that room. She definitely has done something natural to Milano because her magic won't affect him as he is still wearing my mother's pendant.
I quickly walked away and opened the adjacent room which again was an empty guest room. After making sure that there is no one in the room, first I locked the room. Then turned towards the wall that separates this room from Milano's room. Did the magic and the room came to my visibility. As I thought, Milano is trying his best to stay away from Grace. I could see that he was being drugged. He is asking Grace to go out of the room but she is trying her best to get near him.
I am sure he hasn't drunk anything because I have already warned him not to. That's when I noticed the candles being lit in various parts of the room. So she has used human technique. Aphrodisiacs always work but not here. What's she going to do if there is a fire in the room because of the candles she has lit? What a nice idea. I flicked my finger and the flame from one of the candles rose up and caught the nearest curtain. Soon the curtain caught fire and caused the fire alarm to ring.
That's when Grace noticed the fire, but it was already late. The guards entered the room without her permission and tried to put off the fire. But I am not going to make it so easy for them. With another flick, the fire started to spread. More guards came with fire extinguishers and Grace had no other option other than to run out of the room. She pulled Milano with her and now it's my turn to block her vision. As soon as she stepped out of the room, for a few seconds the smoke engulfed her and it was enough time for me to take Milano with me. I pulled him with me to the adjacent room.
Before Milano could figure out what was happening, I ported us to my room in the palace. I looked at him carefully. He is still hot. His eyes were filled with lust and I know that the drug is doing its work. I don't know how to make antidotes for aphrodisiacs. The only option left is giving him what he wants. But that means I have to sacrifice my first time. I have never thought that I would give my virginity to my mate in such a way. I have always wanted to make it special.
“Milano dear, I am sorry. I couldn't save you before she drugged you. You don't have to worry now. I am here with you and you are safe. I know it's becoming hard for you to control yourself. You don't have to do that anymore. You can take me right here right now.” I submitted myself to him.
“No Sarah, I don't want our first time to be like this. Just help me to the washroom. A cold shower and I'll be alright. Just leave me in the washroom and don't come near me until I call you.”
I could feel his pain through his words and I am going to make that bitch pay for what she did to my man. I helped him to the washroom and waited outside. About half an hour later, he came back wearing a bathrobe.
“I shouldn't have let her in my room. I am really sorry Sarah.” Milano said,
“You don't have to be. I tried my best to get to you but she had blocked all the ways including your phone. Grace is not Uncle Herman's daughter. She is a witch and she is not alone. Everyone in this palace except Aunt Rachel is controlled by a witch. But that is not Grace. Someone else is helping her. Grace is not that powerful because she couldn't trace my identity. She is after you and I have a feeling that everything is connected. I mean even your wife's death is somehow connected with all that's happening. I need to act quickly because whoever is helping Grace will come after you. Grace is definitely going to inform that witch about what happened in your room. She might be thinking that the fire occurred due to the candles but the one helping her won't believe that. We don't have time. I have to unveil everything as soon as possible.” I said,
“Do you have a plan then?” He asked.
“No, I have no idea what to do. But I am sure, everything will fall back in its place. For now I have to get you back safely to your room before Grace finds out that you are here. Remember one thing, try to stay away from Grace and never remove that pendant. It will protect you from all the black magic. I can't get you back to your room but can send you to the nearby room. Your room is being jinxed and I think most of the rooms would be. I don't want to lose you. Just call me whenever you feel that something wrong is happening to you.” I said,
“Don't worry, I'll be fine. I just hope that you will get your answers really soon so that we can go back to our world.” He gave me a short kiss before we heard a knock at the door.
“Hurry up, just go.”
I quickly made a way to port Milano and he disappeared before I opened the door. Grace was standing outside fuming like a volcano.
“Where is Milano?” She pushed me aside and dashed inside my room.
“How would I know where he is? Ask the guards or the servants who might have taken him to his room. I don't even know where his room is.” I acted innocent.
“The Guards have already told me that you were outside the room looking for Milano. What did you do? Who is helping you?” She asked but I didn't feel afraid.
“That's true but it's also true that they didn't allow me to go inside the room. So I went back to my room.” I said,
“I have already told you to take the kingdom and leave Milano. He is mine. I am warning you, if I see you again near my Milano, you will have the same fate as your parents.” She threatened.
I stayed silent because I had to save up for the judgment. Not a single soul who has anything to do with my parents' deaths is going to be forgiven. I looked at her retreating image and I just wanted to talk to someone who could guide me. The first face that came to my mind was Mr Buchanan. I took my phone and dialed his number and asked him to meet me by 4 in the evening. He will definitely know something about my past that could help me to reach the murderers.
