"The only Heaven clan on earth. Because you my dear sister are not a part of the family anymore".
So Ares knew my sister was alive all this while?. But then he was about to tell me before the letter came in.
"I need to go back to the palace. I have been gone far too long. Ares would be worried." I say concluding our talks, I know what she I trying to do. She is trying to keep me here. Perhaps waiting for Ares to show up because he is worried about me.
"Do you know that Ares is also half wizard?. And he is in a way not the younger brother to Dorian the prince. He is older than Dorian. But the people of his kingdom has being led to believe something else".
She adds. But I am not about to continue speaking with her. If she needs my powers she could grovel all she wants.
"I am not going to keep my self here. I am leaving so show me the way out and yes I know Ares is half wizard who doesn't know.?. And I know about he not being the youngest son." Because he is the son of Asmodeous.
His existence was kept a secret because of the curse and after Dorian was born, he was presented to the former king Asa as new born baby by his cruel parents.
But she didn't have to know that.
"Very well then. When you walk through that door" she says pointing at the door on my left. "You would appear in the palace"
I do not want to trust that, because I may end up somewhere else, perhaps one of her maze. But I am not going to overthink things.
"You really were of help. And goodbye dear sister". I say as I turn to walk away. With just one thought in mind.
Finding out the limitations of my powers.
And I would be needing Ares and Tobias for this.
And true to her word, I appeared in the palace, but not where I expected to appear.
In the former Queen's chamber.
In here is very dark but I could make out the name engraved on her tombstone.
'LUNA BANE MICKELSON.'
I suddenly get the urge to touch her tombstone. So i just did.
"Make it stop!.Please Bane I cannot anymore. I can not sacrifice my son's soul and not be this scared."
A matured woman's voice screaming in agony, is what I heard. But i am sensing it was Luna's. Ares' mother voice.
What did she mean by her being scared to sacrifice his soul?.
I touch her tombstone again focusing more on seeing what was happening this time.
I do not know if I can. I just know I can.
"Ares is like an abomination. He would never become king Asmodeous. And you know how ruthless Asa can be.". I can now see Luna's face. She is oh so beautiful. She has the same forest green eyes like Ares.
And Asmodeous face.
They look like they are in love. Deeply in love.
"I know what to do. You just leave things to me. No one has to know. We keep Ares as a new born baby till you begat another child for
Asa."
Asmodeous says in a soothing voice.
He must love her so much, because he cups her face and continues. "I love you more than anything else in my life. And I will do anything for my son. I would not get rid of my son just because he has my blood. I will keep him safe. No matter what".
Luna sighs and looks back into his eyes worry lacing her green orbs.
"So what if the Lycans smells him or the witches detects a wizard?. A wizard with demon blood. And half lycan too. That would not seat well with them. It's a curse to have such powers you know that."
"Oh my love I do not think our baby is a curse neither do I think he is an abomination."
"I think he is a blessing". Oh no Asmodeous no mother?. Why is she there with them?.
Luna doesn't seem convinced yet.
"Don't you see?. I am the only most powerful witch to exist. He would believe me, I would even tel l him about the prophecy of the witch that isn't born yet. Asa would think that because of your son's powers he would rule the world. And think about it. Your son would be the most loved one, you and I know how much the king thirsts for power " My mother trys to convince Luna.
"No, no, Asa is not stupid. He would know if I am lying on not. Remember he reads mind. What if he trus to kill my son_ what if he_" . Her voice breaks.
She truly cares for Ares. But her way of saving him?. Was evil. Or was it not?.
I am going to find out.
I keep listening and focusing on the vision.
"Its okay. I promise everything is going to be fine. All you have to do is trust us on this. And your secret would be safe along with your son."
My mother said.
"Oh I never knew a day would come when I would be in dire need of your help. I appreciate all of it. Please keep my son safe and make Asa believe I was never carrying a son before I married him. So what do I have to do now?".
"All I need is your son's soul. Though Asa may love you now. But when i am done his love for you would diminish. He may begin to hurt you. Are you sure you want that?".
My mother warned. But as Asmodeous was about to go against it.
Luna interrupts him holding his hand. "For our son. We would do anything to keep him safe and alive. Right?".
Asmodeous breaths taking her hand, but clearly not satisfied with it. But went with it anyway. Just to keep Ares safe. It breaks my heart.
There are still alot of thinks indeed to know. But all I keep seeing is darkness.
No more memories of hers. No more visions.
And I still have more questions.
Why is my mother willing to work for them?.
And what happened centuries ago?.
Why was Sawyer mixed with all this.?
How was the curse lifted?
Did Asa know about these?.
Oh alot of questions in my head.
But first I have to see Ares.
So I did just that.
When I got to our chamber, Ares is pacing around. Chanting and casting spells.
"Well, I can see you miss me husband. Cant sleep without me?". I tease.
Oh how much I miss him.
His head whips to me immediately.
" Oh gods be good. Where have you being?. I was beginning to conjure up some powers to find you. Dorian said yu suddenly disappeared into the thin air. I did not know what to think. Because I could constantly feel you reaching out to me. I thought you were in danger. But Ashter confirmed you are not hurt. I just didn't-"
He rants but I cut him off with a heated kiss.
My tongue exploring his. Both of us fighting for dominance.
"I miss you so much. I am so sorry for scaring you. You know I didn't mean to". I croak out. Oh i am crying.
"Its okay love. You are in my hands now. That's all that matters." He smiles our forehead resting against each other.
"Okay. But I really have to show yo something."
"What is that? Are you hurt?". He sounds worried for me.
"No not me.Sit down I will show you. Believe me or not, I can see visions... Remember that dream"?. He quickly nods sitting down.
"Let me show you what I know".
