Chapter 55

"Go in and bring out my mate," Lord Daniel ordered his falcons.
%%%%%%%%%%%%
Vala was surprised when she saw Ruthless four Spirits beast heads, only Ice fang showed his whole self.
They bowed before Vala.
"What is going on? What is the meaning of this?"
"You're now our owner."
"I don't understand,"
"He is dying and he asked us to get you and the babies out of here." Ice Fang told Vala.
"Impossible, Ruthless cannot die, he is strong."
"Come with us, the falcons will be here soon."
Getting up from her bed, even though she was still tired, "Take the children Pula," Vala said and Pula did as told by her dragon magic. "Go with Ice Fang and make sure no harm comes to them, please."
"We have no time to waste," Ice Fang said and gently dragged Pula to himself.
Fire stretch out one of his claws and drag the midwife also, "For the second baby,"
They disappeared and at the same moment, the falcons brust the door and came rushing into the room.

Lord Daniel smiled when he saw Vala dragged towards him.
"I finally get to meet you in person, my love," Lord Daniel said but Vala wasn't watching him, her eyes were on Ruthless who wasn't showing any sign of movement.
"Winter... please look at me."
"He's dead, you know, never coming back again." Lord Daniel told her as he followed her eyes to where she was staring.
"No, my husband cannot die,"
Lord Daniel smiled and removed the sword from Ruthless body, "Perhaps, burning him would convince you that he is truly dead," he said and with a flick of his hand, fire surrounded Ruthless lifeless body.
"No!!" Vala yelled out trying to free herself from the two falcon's holding her. She watched with tears in her eyes as her Winter body was consumed by fire. She couldn't hide her tears nor stop it from flowing.
She never thought a day like this would come and that it would happen a day after her marriage with Winter.
She still couldn't believe her eyes, her Winter is gone, just like that. And he never gets to hear 'I love you' from him.
"His ashes will be throw into the River of Abss, in that way, he will not reincarnate," Daniel said to her as he approached her slowly, "He is gone for good Vala, you better get used to it now." he added stopping right in front of her face.
Vala tore her eyes away from the burning form of her husband to glare heatedly at Daniel. "I will kill you," She promised him with every fiber in her.
Daniel smirked, "Oh, you could only try but won't succeed, I will take care of you, I promise not touch you until I have brought you the heads of your twins, Ruthless children, nothing will please me than see the headless bodies of those children that would have been mine."
"I fucking hate you and guess what, you will never find them," She said hoping and praying for Lord Daniel not to find Ruthless spirit beasts and Pula.
"I will, you just wait and see," He said confidently. "And as for you....." he added, turning to face Galore who was held to the ground. "Goodbye," he stretch one of his fingers towards his directions
Vala started laughing to the surprise of them all.
"What is funny?" Lord Daniel demanded.
"You cannot kill him fool,"
"And why is that?" he asked.
"Because killing my father in law, will eventually make your mother die," seeing his confuse look, she elaborated on it, "If he dies, your mother dies too," she added and face Flower, "Do you think that wine you had drink at my wedding was just an ordinary wine, Fairy? Look, for all the past years I have been helping the Elves students to emerge as the winner to attend the supernatural school, do you think I don't recall or remember any of their faces I have helped, do you take me for a fool Flower? I haven't seen your face before so seeing you here and you claiming to be from the Elves land and me helping you get into the school made me laugh hard. C'mon couldn't you come up with a better lie?"
"You are lying," Flower said and took her sword and tore Galore upper right arm, surprisingly she screamed and dropped the sword and as the same cut appeared in her arm, at exactly where she had cut Galore.
"Told you, I begged my husband to do it because I know you are a two sided witch," Vala said, very proud of herself.
Galore wound would heal gradually.
"Take them to the dungeon and chain them up," Lord Daniel commanded and the falcons did as ordered.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
They put Galore and Vala in a separate cell, chaining their hands and feet.
Vala who had lost the zeal to fight was praying and hoping for the safety of her babies.
She remembered she and Ruthless last conversation the previous night;
Flashback:
"Every encounter is destined, Vala, no matter who you meet and when, they will teach you something. So wherever you go, you should believe that whatever you meet is your destiny."
End of Flashback.
Fresh tears begin to drop, a part of her died when her husband died. She didn't want to believe that he was gone but she remembered when. He had told her his spirit beasts can only be hers when he died and his spirit beasts had bowed before her and acknowledged her as their new owner.
"Winter, you did not die for power but for love, just as we were fated to meet each other. I know in your eyes you once see this world as cold and empty but not anymore. You told me, in the face of despair, even the smallest ray of hope has unlimited possibility. You made me a promise Winter and I am still holding onto it, I know you will always be with me and I will be here, I will always be here..... waiting for you,"
%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Lord Daniel smiled as he used his magic to pile up Ruthless ashes.
"What should we do next my Lord?" Zelik asked.
"I have visited the Elves Queens and my in-law, after my visit, we release Lucifer, the Creator better be prepared, it's now my turn," Lord Daniel said with a devilish smirk. "And as for you," he faced Blue.

Somewhere deep amongst the Cloud:
Two winged people flew and entered a house made of pure gold, they flew inside until they reached a throne which was empty, opposite the empty throne stood a woman with white wings folded behind her back.
They flew down, "We've got good news and bad news my Lady," both of the ladies said at the same time.
"Tell me the good news first," The woman with white long shining hair mixed with white and rainbow said, her back facing them.
"We have found out the place Flower went hiding with your son she stole from you," one of them said.
"And where is that?" She asked facing them, she was a beauty to behold.
"The supernatural kingdom," the second one replied.
"I see, she knows I won't search there and that was why she took my son there, for three thousand years," the high lady spoke. "I will visit Flower and make sure she pays for everything she had put me through,"
"If you go, that means you are going to meet your mate you rejected, Nilela's father,"
"I know, but I think it's time I teach my sister a lesson, she stole my son from me and hid him away for years when he was serving his punishment given to him by the Creator," the woman said, "And the bad news?"
"They killed Nilela, my lady."
The woman started laughing as if what she heard was funny.
"Should we wake up Nilela's king of spirit beast to go down to the supernatural realm and deal with them?"
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Six thousand years ago, there was once a kingdom named Nilela that was destroyed.
What happened? Every story has a beginning…
