Chapter 27 Danger after danger

CYNTHIA MAXIMILLIAN POV
I get up from my seat at the table and remove the blanket. I took a step forward and used a barrier to keep the others from attacking these rude visitors.
"Good girl. You know what you need to do."
"Is this about my father? What did he ask from the council again?"-I asked. He took out a talisman and smirked. I'm unable to move any longer. This just signifies that the council has a supernatural being as an ally. Those newly discovered foes came in. 'What should I do? I have to protect everyone!'
"That is my prey, Salvador!"-Glaiza said. To stop her, he tried a talisman, but it turned to ash. He pulled out his revolver and fires at her. But, of course, she employed a deterrent. I'm still dizzy and weak, and I can't utilize my strength or I'll die. I'm not going to be reborn. If I am, I'll be losing myself. That is something I am afraid of! I can't let that happen.
"Cynthia, open this!"-aunt Clara. I shook my head.
"Don't! Stay where you are!"-I said. I closed my eyes and concentrated on regaining my strength. I can't afford to lose! I'm not going to let them run amuck.
"Leave the Skyfall kingdom!"-I shouted. Just like what happened in the hollow village, everything happened all of a sudden. I was set free by a powerful force. They are staring at me. Whoa!
"She is not a simple foe, you idiots!"-Glaiza. I saw arrows that would fall to us. I used my power to reduce them to ashes. I can't stop myself. And so the fight began. I cancel the ice, fire, and whatever else they throw at me. I can feel myself getting colder on the inside, but I have to fight it. I punch the council leader in the face and kick him in the shins. I teleported him back into the council chamber. I look at Gladys and Glaiza, who are now engulfed in flame. My vision is blurring, and my body is about to give up. I made the flames strong enough for them to retreat on their own. I spit in blood, wipe it away, and then draw ruins in the ground. I will cast a spell to protect Skyfall.
"Protect this whole region for me…"-I mumbled. Then I collapse as snow-like flakes cover my body. I cast a spell on myself in order to be at peace, or else I shouldn't open my eyes at all. I always bring chaos and peril to the beings I love the most. I'm a jinx.
"Cynthia…peek-a-boo!"-she said. My eyes widened when I saw my mother holding me as a newborn baby in her arms. Her eyes have a distinct glow to them. She kissed me on the cheek.
"Cynthia, your mother will not be with you when you grow up. Please accept my apologies. But I knew you'd be strong enough. I will always love you."
YAEL YURIN POV
We can tell. We rush and transform into a wolf. We arrive at the castle in record time. Yasmin catches her as she falls to the ground. She used a barrier to keep everyone safe. Her entire body is covered in snowflakes. Yasmin wipes them away with her fingers and taps her cheeks. The barrier crumbles. We both kneel down to reach her. She's freezing! What the hell was going on a while ago? I can still smell witches and humans. Those scumbag came?
"Cynthia! Cynthia! Don't scare us like this! Wake up! Just wake up please! I will cook your favorite dishes! Just wake up."-Yasmin. She began to cry as she hugged her. Rachel suddenly knelt between Ulysses and me. She put her hand in her face at a distance of a few inches. Cold smoke is suddenly evaporating from her body. I believe she is releasing the coldness from her body. Rita is rubbing her hands together to warm them up. Except for Estella, everyone is concerned. Her lips drew in a smirk, which I noticed. Damn! She is not hiding it anymore.
"We have to talk, Ulysses."-I said. I drag him up. We speak on a place that no one else can hear us.
"I have no time for your words, Yael."-he said. I sigh.
"I like her. I'm not sure why she's willing to hand over her entire life to you. I eventually despise it."
"She is my mate, Yael. And you know the rules."
"Then act like one!"-I shouted. He gave me a death glare and grab my collar. I grab his either and we look on each other firmly. I am ready to fight him.
"Don't try to step into my territory, Yael."-he said.
"You two, what is going on here?"-Marko. I left them and went back. I carried her up. Clara speaks.
"Bring her inside. Don't bring her with you again. You boys need to stop thinking that princess Cynthia is something you can have whenever you want. She cast a spell on herself, and I need to keep an eye on her." -she stated. I'm perplexed as I look at Clara. Her tongue is sharp yet honest.
"Cast a spell? Is that even possible?"-I ask.
"Yes, witches can cast a cursed or any type of spell on them for certain reasons."-she said. I look at her.
"What kind of curse is that?"-Ulysses. The vampire king, Nathan, kisses her on the cheeks. I can tell he likes her just as much as I do. Clara sighs and resumes her words for everyone of us.
"Eternal slumber. She will continue to sleep until she finds a man who will give her true loves kiss?or until she hears someone calling for her. It depends on the circumstances. But I suppose her sleeping curse is her way of regenerating and preventing death."
"I could tell she was scared a while ago. But she had the fortitude to make a decision. That is to keep us safe. She is, in fact, similar to her mother."-Nathan.
"You two alpha's, we need to talk to you."-Ruben.
NATHAN JACQUES POV
Eternal slumber I recall losing my mother after she was placed in an eternal sleep, and when slayers came to our house, she was burned in that house. I can't do anything because I'm still weak, despite the fact that I'm 27 years old at that time.? I can't control or use my abilities. During that time, I prefer to read books and carry out researches.? That was the darkest and most lonely period of my life. Everything was taken from me. By those slayers.
"Let me carry her."-I said to Yael. He despises the idea, but he agreed to let me carry her. The other girls are following me. Clara pushes the door. Rita and Yasmin pull back the curtain on her bed. I laid her down the?bed. Wake up everyone is here.
"I know she chose this curse because she wanted to give herself some time to think things through. Just like my mother did after my father died while we were being pursued by enemies."-I said.
"I recall that time. I had only recently been adopted by your family when the slayers discovered us. If it hadn't been for Cendrea's assistance, the two of us would have died in that house as well."-Rachel.
"Cendrea had been living peacefully for 50 years when Daniel discovered him." She has been living in that mountain for decades and has led a simple life until she falls in love with the wrong man."-Clara. Animosity flashes in her eyes.
"Cendrea died in that castle at the age of 444. Cynthia is hoping that even if she is no longer alive, she will not suffer the same fate as her." -Miranda.
"But I suppose the man she chooses to be her partner has his own issues."-I said. But there's something wrong with his pack. That must have been 23 years ago, I believe. Estella Holsen has been in his pack since the day he—added her. In that meeting of the 4 clans' peace talks, I met that her.
"Clara, make this room sound proofed. I wanted to ask something. Rachel, close the door and lock it.
"What is it?"-she ask. Rachel came back after locking the door. I look at Clara in serious glances.
"Have you ever sense bad things to Estella Holsen?"
"What exactly you want to ask?"-Clara. Yasmin spoke and her words added my suspicion to Estella.
"Estella is hiding something, and we've been looking into her identity?for 7 years.?Unfortunately, we haven't found anything. His Majesty rescued her from slayers 24 years ago. She has a sharp tongue, but I have my doubts about who she is." -Yasmin.
"Until seven years ago. Yael overheard Estella discussing a plan to control the king and this region with someone. When we talked to him about it while looking for evidence, he suddenly took us off his pack. He stated that he loves Estella and that he has changed since then."-Rita.
ILDRICH EDROS
I stayed with our leader. I still considered Ulysses as my alpha but after what happens, 7 years ago. I have the impression that I am missing something in my investigation. I still wanted to smack Estella around the head. We?knew it was entirely her fault! "Ildrich, can I have your time?"-Pricilla.
"No problem with me. Just tell what it is."-I said.
"Let's go in my office. I need to talk to you privately."
I followed her and she locks the door. She place a talisman in the door and signed me to seat.
"Sound proofing, huh? You must be wanting to ask a serious question to me, duchess."-I said. She sighs.
"I knew right away that something was wrong with what happened seven years ago.? I wanted to talk to you about it, but you didn't give me the opportunity to do so. I'd like you to say?something right now."
"It's all about Estella. Just like I said to you seven years ago. Take care of that stranger. We had been together for 50 years. That woman, on the other hand, tore us apart. You must pay attention to what I say. I want you and the others to know her damn secrets. She is the reason why we are divided in two."-I said firmly. Its because she lied
"Estella, I've already gone over the records from when we saved her 24 years ago. I'm going to give everyone the benefit of the doubt. But, in the last few days, I've had the impression that Estella is attempting to do something. She was also concerned over something."-she said.
"She must have realized Cynthia is the type of person who will jeopardize her secrets. Cynthia will reveal her secrets and the sooner the better."-I said.
"I knew Yael and everyone else would not dare to accuse her without conducting an investigation."
"Now, tell me, did you guys do such thing like that?"
"You guess it right. But what surprises us is that when we tried to track her down or even find out who?she was, the papers turned to ash. It is not uncommon for people who knew her to be murdered. Yael decided to speak with his majesty at that point. Then he decided to abandon us in favor of Estella's lies."-I said.
"That's exactly what I was thinking. If this occurs, Estella is concealing something. If that's the case, I'll look into it myself. I was curious as to what kind of wolf she is. I'm hoping this is just about their love story, but what if it's not? Then she should pay for what she did to us seven years ago."-she said. Among the Luna's, She is strong-headed, brave and strong-willed woman. That's why Vincent likes her.
"I am happy if you will, duchess."-I said. I went back outside when I feel Estella's presence in the hallway.
"You are still trying, Ildrich. You should be careful."
"Threatened, Estella? We will never stop. Oh please! Don't tell me you will going to kill me?"-I said.
"Why not? It will be easy."-she grabs my neck. Crap!
