Chapter 66
Will's POV
I felt a mind link waking me up after I had just fell asleep. Jace practically yelled in my mind saying, “Will come on man. Wake up. Its important.” “This had better be good I am beat? Did you get the box?” I asked him impatiently. “That's just it boss. Its gone. A fake was left behind with a note. I think it was directed at the Queen,” he said hesitating. “Whats it say?” I asked worried about his answer.
“”You'll have to come get this if you want it back. You know where to find us.”Diana. Do you know who that is?” Jace asked curiously. “It could be the person who captured her at the coronation ceremony. She said witches took her, but she never said which ones. Look into this Diana make sure to speak with the elves they may know more about how to handle this then we are aware of,” I said trying to work out how best to collect information. “Speak to Anya. She has been the most helpful.”
“Will do. I'll have that to you in the morning. I've got a dinner waiting for me and a pissed off mate to explain to. Good night boss,” Jace said ending the link. Of course something like this was taken. Once every one knew they could mate with Kai everyone was looking for a way to make her surrender. Now she had two defenders and possibly more on the way, but I still had my reservations about some of them. Maybe I could make sure certain candidates could be those I already trust. Time to look into a few potentials that could be trustworthy. Falling asleep thinking of the first one I'll contact it still upset Hunter the thoughts I was having.
We can keep her safe. Why question this now? The Goddess gave us more power to keep her safe we just need to train more with it, Hunter said confident in our abilities. I know, but there are those with more experience with particular kinds of magic and energy that I don't want to take anything to chance. She is now target no. 1 and I want to make sure she has the best protection possible, even if its another mate, I said with conviction. Hunter sighed settling down the saying, Be careful. I still want our mate as ours too. Me too, buddy, me too, I said as Hunter faded to the back of my mind. Exhausted from the days events I quickly fall back to sleep cuddling in closer to Kai as she snuggles her butt closer to me in her sleep. I'll keep you safe, I promise.
Kenna's POV
Sitting in this cell sucked. Here I am stuck here when I risked my life to save their damn princess and the second they see that I'm a witch BAM! In the slammer I went. F*cking wolves! Watching the guards walk by was getting old so I walked up to the door saying, “Hey I saved your princess's ass and this is how I'm treated?!” The wolf that walked by slapped his weapon on the door where my hands were breaking a couple of my fingers as I screamed from the pain.
“Hey! Leave her alone! I'd be dead if she hadn't stepped in so step thef*ck away from her cell! NOW!!!!” I heard Lysa yell from the other end of the jail. “Thanks, Lysa.” I said panting through the pain of my broken fingers. I couldn't heal myself because the cell was warded off preventing me from using any magic. My finger was bleeding pretty bad so I ripped my shirt pulling a long strip off then grabbing a couple sticks I go through the painful process of setting the finger and binding it so I didn't loose it. By the time I was done I was sweating my ass off and dizzy as f*ck from the blood loss. “Hey Kenna, you okay?” Lysa yelled. “Yeah I'll live just remember to tell your family how poorly I was treated if I pass out,” I said trying to bare with the pain. Using the life energy in me I slowly spread it around my hand healing it a little at a time until my energy was dangerously low. Stopping as foot steps reach my door I look to see the former alpha king standing there.
“My my Kenna what a mess you've made. Now I get to use you for a far greater purpose then you were originally going to be used for,” he said seeing the state I was in. looking to the guards they open the cell dragging me out slapping magic cuffs that drained my magic from me and gagging my mouth. “You see we always knew you were a witch we just needed a good reason to send you back to your mother in pieces and now we can,” the Alpha said as we made out way to a deserted part of the pack lands. I had no energy to fight because of the cuffs so I could do nothing but go with them. Leaving the jail I seen Lysa in her cell looking at me with fear in her eyes tears steaming down her face as I was dragged away.
I was loaded up into a van then blindfolded scared as hell this was my last night alive. I did the only thing I had left and reached for my mother in a desparate plea for help. Mother! Hear me! I face a death sentence and can't free myself. Please help me! I screamed in my soul praying that she heard me. The van stayed on the road for quite some time before it cam to a stop at some unknown location. They pulled me out then took the blindfold off seeing that I was at the place that was attacked almost a year ago. Looking around it was all flat now no damage just an open lot. The former alpha steps up to me taking off my gag saying, “And this will be your resting place. Lysa will forget soon enough of your friendship and move on. She has always been easily manipulated. Farwell Witch!”
He went to extract my heart out of my chest, but a force ulled me over the edge into the river just below us. I took a deep breath before landing in the water hands and feet bound so I couldn't swim, but I was still being pulled along. Being pulled out of the water seeing a waterfall a portal was in the waterfall and I was pulled through it. A gush of water later and I was sitting on a hard surface the heat of a fire rushing over me, “Where...?”
“It seems you had more problems then you let on daughter,” my mother said sitting in her chair looking at me expectantly.
