Chapter 79

” ! Where are that man and your father now?” He couldn’t listen further. Torian was already boiling in rage at everything I was telling him. He was fuming, his face red.

“They are all dead. I poisoned Xander when he tried to rape me, and I then ran away from that pack. I was then sold to a bidder from this pack. When he heard my story, he was scared that one day I would be hunted and it could put his family in trouble, so he gave me the opportunity to become a maid here.

Luckily, I was taken in, and it didn’t take long before 1 set my eyes on you. I realized at that moment that I had found someone my heart was ready to give everything for.

Tarian hugged me, kissed me, and carried me into his arms, leading me into the room since we were in the sitting room.

“You just have to lay there and tell me whatever you want because I won’t let you go through anything stressful and harsh. You don’t even have to help me again because your body has gone through a lot, and the only thing it needs now is rest, sleep, and enjoyment.” My eyes became teary hearing his words of compassion and love.

“I didn’t complain of stress; besides, being with you had been a blessing and really made me forget all the pain of my past. Now I want to do everything to make a happy home with you because I love you so much.”

He had his eyes wet as they gazed at me with so much compassion.

Torian’s POV

“We will make that dream come true. In fact, it is close. Let’s begin the party because the new future we desire is here!” I shrieked, and she jumped up from the bed and stepped out. I informed the messenger to ring the bell and announce it to the whole community, which he did.

From there, we began a party. Yes, a celebration party that spread to the entire pack. Everyone came out to celebrate the great victory because it was the biggest we did to someone like Diana, who had oppressed us for so long that our lives are now horrible.

Everyone actually left their various homes to gather at the village square. Music was on, and food and drink were in surplus for everyone because we were sure of our economy growing back after being plummeted by Diana’s request for a

percentage.

There was nothing to worry about because not only is our border stronger, but Diana won’t want to lose more of her men. She will rather let me be than keep sending her men to get killed when she should be pulling them up in numerous numbers for the fight against Selene

But that was only my thought. That was me trying to understand how Diana thinks without really knowing her. My estimation was totally wrong because the woman wasn’t who I thought she was. She isn’t someone to joke with.

In the party, hell broke loose as one of my border guards who survived ran up to the stage to announce to me that Diana and her demons were on attack on us and that the entire guards at the border were dead.

According to him, he could only survive because he wasn’t there at that time. He was still a distance away, heading to the border to join others, when he sighted the brutal battle going on. He not only smelled the scent of demons but also caught a glimpse of Diana. He then ran back here to inform us of news that exploded with horror inside of me.

I was transfixed, lost for words, as my eyes scanned through the happy faces of my people, who thought all was going perfectly fine. People who had come out in numbers to celebrate our moment of freedom without knowing that this would be their last moment on earth.

It was just like a celebration of the life spent on earth because it was all about to end.

I picked up the mic, tears cascading down my cheeks. My lips trembled, and shivers rushed through me like waves while I swallowed the huge lump that had formed inside my throat.

“Listen up, everybody! My voice cracked through the crowd gathered, and silence rocked in. My tone was far from what

they expected, and in an instant, they were able to sense the intense fear and sadness in every word.

All her eyes drifted to me as they waited to hear what I had to say, but my voice was just hitched in my throat with every word I was about to speak, making it really hard to cross my mouth.

How will I tell them? How will I inform these innocent people that my stupidity has caused them to go extinct? I don’t need a soothsayer or diviner to tell me what Diana is going to do to us right now. Not a single life will be spared, not when I don’t allow one of her men to return alive.

With the help of the Lycan, I did a massacre on her. She is back for revenge already, and seeing she cruised past that forest is chough reason to know the Lycans had left the forest thinking all deals were done.

“Diana is here for revenge!” I finally got the courage and announced it, causing chaos, cries, and uproars through the air, as every single person here, both old and young, knows what it means. We all know what Diana will do to us, and all we should do with the little time we have left is say our last prayers and greet our loved ones.

It was actually the end of us.

Just then, I remembered Selene giving me a ring to communicate with her.

“Kill them all.” The voice of Diana was heard loud and clear, echoing through every corner while people scattered around, running helter–skelter, looking for where to hide and praying you weren’t seen, but that would only be possible if we were fighting against fellow werewolves or vampires.

The demons are able to replace everyone with just their scent and the sound of their breath. There was no hiding.

Without wasting any more seconds, I informed Selene with the ring and quickly pulled it out and flung it because 1 remembered she told me Diana shouldn’t see it as she would recognize it and know that I could communicate with Selene.

I didn’t know what to do as I watched my people being killed in numbers by Diana. We were ambushed, not ready for a fight, as everyone had come for a party and not a battle. It was so hard to fight back, so hard to defend ourselves, so Diana was at the top of the chain, dealing us blows.

Lola was crying beside me as we stood on the porch of the hall, trembling.

“Are we all going to die?” She asked, her voice shaking.

“No, but a lot will. I don’t know when Selene will arrive with her people. I sent…”

I couldn’t finish whatever I was saying

Just then, I was grabbed by the hair. The person pulled me into the hall, and I looked up to see it was Diana. I couldn’t replace Lola, who was with me, and my heart was almost crushed into pieces. The story of her life, which she told me, blasted my head and entire body with guilt as I wondered if Factually had failed her.

Maybe it wasn’t actually a blessing for her to meet me when I could protect her and give her a better life. What if she had been killed? I was so shocked by this sudden war that I hadn’t checked if she was still standing beside me. I don’t know where she is now, and I am at the mercy of Diana, who I know won’t spare me this time. If there was one thing she can’t forgive, it’s betrayal and falling out of a deal made.

My mind didn’t cross that she would attack today. So I hadn’t informed Selene earlier. Before they reach here, I don’t know how many of us will be left, including me. I don’t know if I will be alive, nor do I know what the state of Lola is.

“Where is Lola?!” I barked, ignoring the devilish eyes of Diana, who was reassuring me of my death sentence already. There was no trace of forgiveness or a second chance this time.
