Walden stretched his hand and pointed at the pyramid and it broke apart. Alison's body was about to fall and Walden caught her up.
Alison looked at Walden with a weak smile and muttered, ''you really came to save me''
Walden didn't say anything and lifted her up. He carried out of the room to the hall and looked at the couple. They were struggling to get out of the fire.
''Please, Lord Walden, let my parents go and take me instead. I will be your slave and serve you for the rest of my life'' Alonso said when he saw Walden walking out.
Walden looked at him and said, 'I don't have the need for a slave''
''But she does. My family aren't the only ones after her. Now that you said it with your own month that she is your bride, a lot of beasts and monsters will be after her. I can stay by her side and protect her for you''
''She is not my bride, she just has the soul of my wife''
''Isn't that the same thing? I promise to protect her. Lord Walden, I might be weak because I have an illness but I still have powers and can sense other spirits. I might come in handy''
''You want her blood to cure your illness. I don't trust you''
''I haven't eaten human meat or drunk human blood before. I always ate animal meat and blood''
''If anything happens to this woman, I will give you a punishment worse than death''
''Yes, Lord Walden''
''Do you agree to let him come with me?'' Walden asked the couple.
''Yes, Lord Walden. I totally agree'' the father of the boy said.
''If I see you anywhere near this woman, I will not spare you…'' Walden said as he gave a stern warning gaze to the woman.
''As long as Alonso is doing well, I won't bother that woman'' the woman replied.
''Let's go'' Walden said to Alonso.
…..
Alison's apartment.
''This way…'' Lucia said as he directed Walden towards Alison's bed. Behind there was Boaz and Alonso.
Walden placed Alison on the bed and looked at Lucia saying, ''you and I need to talk''
''I know, but I need to take care of Alison first. She is my friend''
''You actually have a human friend?'' Boaz asked.
''Of course, Alison and I have being friends for a long time now'' Lucia said and turned to look at Alison. We met when she was in high school''
''And she doesn't find you strange?'' Walden asked.
''Perhaps due to staying with your mother for long, she has come to terms with all the strange things in the world. She never asked me anything and I'm glad. It will be difficult to explain to her anyways''
Walden turned and looked at Alison and spoke, ''don't let her come near me''
''She works at your company as a casual worker. I think she has being working there for the past two years''
''Why didn't you tell me all this?''
''She will wake up if you two don't take it elsewhere'' Boaz said to Walden and Lucia.
''Clean her up and leave her to Alonso and come'' Walden said to Lucia.
''Yes, my Lord'' Lucia said with a smirk.
''Let's go, Boaz''
Boaz looked at Alison with a curious gaze before turning to leave.
….
The penthouse.
''A human woman with the soul of a ghost descendant? Why did your mother do that?'' Boaz asked as they entered the penthouse.
''I don't know, the best person who seem to have all the answers is Lucia'' Walden opened his fridge and picked a bottle of water to drink.
''So, what are you going to do now? I mean what are your plans?''
''I don't have any plans. Even if she has the soul of Kaadie, they are still different people and I am not going to allow her affect my life in any way'' Walden said as he looked at the time.
''It's almost time. I will call Lucia to come back''
''I will be in my room''
''Walden, will you be alright? I mean you have the scent of the woman all over you. Won't it be dangerous after you transform? What if your instincts lead you to her?'' Boaz looked worried as he asked.
''That's why I need you and Lucia to stop me at all cost. Things are going to get messed up if my true self recognizes that woman's scent. I won't be able to control myself. I can't mate with her, that will be against my principles as a man''
''Okay, we will try our best'' Boaz said before Walden went to his room.
Boaz removed his phone and made a call to Ali. 'Hello, Ali. It's everything ready outside?''
''Yes, Lord Boaz''
''I need you to do something else for me. Go to that woman's house and put a stronger spell from the driveway to the door. Make it strong so that Walden won't be able to go inside''
''Lord Boaz, are you thinking that Lord Walden might do something to that woman?''
''I'm afraid that is what I am thinking. I can only hope that he is able to control himself and not do anything to that woman. One Kaadie is enough, right?''
''Alright, Lord Boaz. I will do that right away''
''If anything happens, we have to call Kaada to come and help. We can't let Walden mate with that human woman. a lot of things will go wrong''
''I understand''
''Alright'' Boaz hung up and turned to look at Lucia. She came into the hall the time he was speaking with Ali over the phone.
''I understand that you want to protect Walden but we can't stop a prophecy from coming to pass, right?'' Lucia said and looked at Boaz.
''What do you mean?'' Boaz asked.
''About Alison, what if this is what Aunt wanted from the beginning? She didn't allow Kaadie's soul to perish and kept preserving it until she met with the right medium that is Alison''
''What do you mean, lady Lucia?''
