Chapter 82: Chapter 82

King Damian looked down at his son, he was unconscious at the moment, his face stuck in a painful expression even in his state.

The Dark covers were laid above him stopping just below his shoulders and the large curtains were drawn to shield him from the sun.

He gritted his teeth on the verge of wrecking something at the sight of his son in that state, remembering how they had found him, barely breathing, blood sprawled around him.

From his abdomen jutted out a long metal rod, 8 inches thick.

His fist tightened as Zerth stormed inside him, a ticking time bomb if they lost Legion.

He kept wondering what had happened to his son, and wishing he had listened to Zerth who had told him of the evil he felt was coming.

Now his son lied in the balance of life and death, iron venom oozing through his veins, soon it would infect his heart and Legion would be lost. The last thing that had kept him sane when he was on the verge of losing everything after Kivara’s death.

Tears trailed down his cheeks, unable to keep them away. Whoever had done this to his son would pay with blood, and if Legion became Lost to him, the realms would suffer.

There was no rage like that of Moon Crested Lycan. Havoc would be declared across the crimson sky, his Lycan would be rogue and the masses would suffer for it.

He wiped away his tears as a knock was heard on the large wooden doors, "Come in!" He Growled and the door slowly opened, "Your highness, we were able to find a few Witch healers-" Caleb began as he entered with his head bowed low.

King Damian stood up with an Air of aggression as his eyes landed on the three witches before him, scrutinizing them.

He had to make sure no threat would befall his son. Lycans had many enemies and he was sure Xeric had made a few in this realm.

"They are third Level Witches your Majesty, They will do their best in healing him, " Caleb said motioning the women in, they bowed low before the King, "Your majesty" they said in unison waiting, before Damian gave them a nod to proceed, his eyes watching everything they did as they began their healing.

"Your majesty" Caleb began as King Damian's aggressive eyes landed back to him, "WHAT?!" he bellowed.

Caleb bowed once more, "We also found a witness, one werewolf boy who claims was there when whatever happened to Legion, went down. He goes to the same school, your majesty"

King Damian's eye widened glancing first at the witches, he stomped away toward the door but not before turning to Caleb, whispering lowly, "Make sure nothing happens to him under their care, or else I will make sure you are relieved of your head, after all what is the use of a guardian if he doesn't do his job?" He growled lowly, and with that he walked away.

King Damian gazed at the little wolf boy before him, dressed in a football jersey and some pair of jeans, his eyes ground to the floor, visibly shaking, as he knelt before the King.

It was what was expected for a mere wolf pup, who probably couldn't pass a sentence to his Alpha, what more to his King?

But King Damian was not in the mood to understand, his eyes seeping with rage as Zerth rattled on inside him, "speak" he bellowed causing the poor little wolf to almost have a heart attack.

"Y-your Majesty, " he said barely able to glance up, Zerth rolled his eyes pulling the boy up to his measly feet with one hand, "When your King speaks directly to you boy, you speak and make sure you make sense."

He nodded with wide eyes as Zerth let him go, he didn't want to hurt the boy, and his little wolf wouldn't be able to do anything against his Lycan.

And he needed every bit of information from him.

"Speak,” he repeated.

The boy cleared his throat trying to calm his nerves, "I-It all happened so fast, your majesty, Azian just charged at his highness, slamming him into the wall, repeatedly then they flew up into the-"

"Azian?" King Damian asked.

"Yes, your majesty, they flew up into the sky and that was the last time I saw his highness."

"The boy, Azian, is he an angel?" He asked wondering what sort of angel would have gone against Legion and completely won. And for what reasons?

"No, Your majesty, he isn't a winged man, winged men don't-they don't have that kind of power," he said lowly glancing at the ground.

"What is he?"

"I-I don't know your majesty"

"How can you not know?!" The king bellowed.

"Azian is a dragon" a voice answered

King Damian's eyes shot up to see a dark hooded figure, his eyebrows furrowing, "How dare you come before me witch!" He snapped Zerth fangs showing. No one was allowed to appear before a king uninvited.

The wolf boy immediately run away from the Kings presence, his power was just too much for him or his wolf to handle,

"Not even Old friend?" The witch replied pulling back her hood.

"Stephania?" Damian asked his eyes widening, as Zerth calmed down.

"Hello, old friend," she said with a smirk.

King Damian shook his head, "I rumors said you were in this realm but I-"

"Surprised to see me?" She asked moving toward him,

He nodded watching her, "What are you doing here?" He asked

"Me? I was finding the dragon boy, helping Alec, the order. When we found out the boy was no longer in our realm, it was my mission to find him, whilst the order controlled the dragons in the sup realm" she replied turning to him,

"Alec never said he thought the dragon was in this realm" King Damian replied his eyebrows furrowing

"Well, he wasn't really sure until he was, visiting your son?" She asked slyly.

Damian's hard eyes nodded, "yes" he replied.

"I heard he found his mate...” She trailed off causing Damian’s eyes to shoot up to her,

He growled lowly, "Have you been following him?"

"I have been keeping-some tabs on him, " she replied softly.

"What are you doing here Stephania, I have no need of a dark Witch" he gritted out.

"Really? Maybe true, but your son. He needs me," she replied

"My son is fine, he is being taken care of," King Damian spat back. Of course the witch would know about Legions ordeal.

But he wasn't stupid, Dark witches were never ones to be trusted, he swore never to go to one again, after the first.

"You mean by the three witches? I assure you that though, Sillia, Ella and Irelene are decent witches, they can't really save him,” She replied.

"Stephania," Zerth bellowed displeased at what she was insulating.

She shrugged, "go see for yourself," she said. He gritted his teeth knowing if she was this confident it only meant she was right, his voice became low and defeated, "can you save him?" He asked lowly.

"Yes," she replied causing his heart to thump louder, she moved towards him, "you make me out to be an enemy Damian, yet I have never failed you" she eased.

His eyes followed her hand on his shoulder, "Kaya, is his mate not so?" She asked

"True,” he said after a slight pause, "she is all we need to get out of this realm, I planned to take her as soon as I found out but Legion can't even informed the girl, I should have just-"

"Yes you should, now she doesn't belong to him anymore"

King Damian’s eyes sparked in confusion, "what are you saying?"

"Azian claimed her as his, the Dragon took her away somewhere far, far away, I can't find them" she said slowly.

His sues glimmered, "No!" he yelled

"How is Erilyn’s spell going to be broken now, mmm?"

King Damian looked at Stephania, "He can't claim a mate that isn't his! What happens when he finds his mate?!"

"That's just it, Kaya isn't his mate, but when did that ever stop a dragon from claiming his possessions?" She asked.

King Damian’s jaw hardened at the news.

"Once I heal Legion, I imagine he is going to be furious? However there is little he can do to find her, if even I have failed" she sighed, "I can't imagine the pain he will be under, losing a mate in such away-tragic really, don't you think?"

His eyes dimmed in sadness as Kivara’s face flashed into his mind, as he turned to the witch, "what is your plan? You wouldn't have come here without one" he sneered lowly.

"I need the Dragon, you need Kaya, wherever Kaya goes his Dragon will follow," She said simply,

"You want to use her as bait?"

"Yes, but nothing bad will befall her, she will be completely under your protection, and back to Legion, it's a win-win"

"I'm listening."

"Excellent."
