Chapter 70: Chapter 70
Viona growled painfully. Eyes teared up as she thrashed her weight against the ground painfully. She wanted to run away but Rosamund's spell was too powerful.
Rosamund was a 200 years old witch, perfect in dark spells and could control any creatures with her spells. Her face beamed in happiness once she found Viona in her pathetic state.
Viona ignored the other smell and focused on Damien's fragment that was getting very closer. Her wolf panicked, afraid that Damien would become the next target of Rosamund.
She let herself came out like wildfire and pushed her powers all on surface. Pushing herself up from the ground, her wolf howled impatiently from inside and turned around to glare at the witch-- Rosamund.
Rosamund who didn't expect Viona to fight back was little surprised after her counterattack. Viona dodged her spell skillfully, growled at Rosamund before charging at her way to hit her.
Shockingly, Rosamund even forgot to step back. Viona clutched her head and hit it against the hard tree beside. Rosamund gawked in pain, vomited a mouthful blood and numbly fell down.
Her eyes couldn't help but staring at Viona's way astonishingly. She was amazed and frightened at the same time to acknowledge Viona's power.
How did she manage to break the witch spell?
Rosamund wandered as she glared at her running back into the woods. Viona didn't wish to continue in Vampire's territory. If she stayed longer, some would have found her strangling Rosamund.
No one should know about her hidden powers!
On the other side, Damien was on the verge of Vampire's territory. Accompanied by Marcus, they were going to enter together with caution and awareness. Just when he was going to step in, heavy and running footsteps began to approach them from the darkness of trees ahead.
Damien commanded his troop to stay back as he launched himself forward. From the heavy darkness of trees, a familiar figure came out with an anxious face. Viona paused letting out a sweet whine of her name,
" Damien! "
Damien's heart melted, howled in joy at the sight of his safe mate. Viona jumped off, threw herself onto him and snaked her wide arms around his shoulders. Without any thoughts, she started sobbing in front of the whole pack members,
" Damien.. Damien..."
Damien was shocked to hear such vulnerable voice of his mate. He ran his long fingers across her locks and hussed in a pure gentle voice,
" Ssh! I am here, baby. I am here! I got you."
Viona sobbed, burying her head into the nape of his shoulders,
" I knew it..You would come..."
Damien placed a kiss on the side of her head. Snaking his arms posseively around her body, he questioned between his gritted teeth,
" What did they do to you? Tell me, Luna. Did they hurt you?"
Reminding of the witch, Rosamund, Viona urged leaving his shoulders hurriedly,
" Let's get out of here! They have witches! "
Damien's face turned pale after Viona's words. Rather than being terrified, his anger rose up as he growled attempting to go inside,
" Let me see then! Who is the witch that they are keeping on!!"
Damien wanted to track but Viona's powerful hands gripped her again. She pleaded in fear of loosing her mate,
" Damien! Please! She isn't a weak one. I have managed to escape out from her hands. Please, I don't want to push you in danger."
Damien saw the fear on Viona's eyes. Discarding the thoughts of hunting that witch, he assured with a smile after tugging her closer,
" All right, love. We aren't going in. Let's go back to our pack house."
Viona nodded in agreement and left the vampire territory with Damien as soon as possible.
***********
Rosamund was left inside the forest, grunted in pain and anger. She hated to admit defeat yet Viona successfully beaten her. With her furious temper, she was making rather snarling noises of anger rather than painful ones.
Alaric and their mother made their way inside the forest together. Once they spotted Rosamund, their mother ran over to her and questioned crunching down beside her daughter,
" Rose, what happened? Who did this to you?"
Alaric wasn't so concerned about Rosamund. His dark eyes swam around in a hope to find Viona but he found nothing. His voice came out little coldly,
" Where is Viona? Where did you put her?"
Rosamund had a complicated emotions. Her brother was still caring about that wolf woman rather than paying attention on her injury. She scoffed before replying through her gritted teeth,
" She ran away after beating me. Are you still gonna support her brother? See! She has given me scars. Damnit! Bitch! "
Alaric shifted his eyes on Rosamund's scar lazily. With lips curving up a little, he commented with a shrug,
" You deserve it."
Rosamund's expression turned ashen. She parted her lips open to berate Alaric but their mother's furious voice rang first,
" Get that Luna! Where are guards?"
Alaric growled shooting a warning look at the guards,
" Don't you dare, mother! She isn't someone that you can afford to touch."
Her mother shot a hateful glare and growled back at Alaric,
" Alaric.. don't forget that I am the queen here."
Alaric protested back with same intensity,
" And you are forgetting that I am the future king of Rainbow."
Alaric's words put an end of their baseless temper. Knowing that Viona had managed to flee herself from their captive, Alaric was relieved and was instantly dimming in good mood. At least, he didn't had to make an appearance personally to free her.

•••• TREVISAN MANSION ••••
The pack house were in more chaos when Damien carried Viona inside in his bare arms. His brows were tightly furrowed, described how angry or irritated he was.
Ashley was the first to run over to them. Watching Viona in his embrace, her jealousy returned with much insecurity. She opened her mouth to speak something but received a sharp glare from Damien.
" Not Now! "
Damien's glare had only this meaning that he wasn't bothered to talk with anyone's right now. Under everyone's silent watchful eyes, Damien strode upstairs with Viona. After a day of running and fighting, Viona was exhausted and tired. She fell asleep while coming back on the way of their pack house.
Ashley grunted eternally and casted a strange glare at Marcus. She barked out arrogantly,
" Who is this outsider?"
Celeb was present there beside Marcus. Ashley's words sounded offensive in his ears. Shooting back Ashley a warning glare, he warned in a sharp voice,
" Behave! He is an Alpha from another pack."
Ashley was little taken back after Celeb's words. In comparison with other Alphas, Marcus looked shabby, poorly clothed as if he belonged all those gammas.
Ashley snorted coldly and walked back inside her own room without uttering anymore words. Marcus rested his eyes on her back for a while and sighed out helplessly. No one knew what was he thinking about exactly!
Upstairs, Damien put Viona over the bed cautiously. Fixing her feet cautiously, he drapped her body with warm blanket and left only after making sure that she was comfortable enough.
Walking out, he came across the stairs and called reffering to Marcus and Celeb,
" Come inside my study."
They nodded and followed him upstairs inside his study room. Once the door was closed, Damien slammed across his desk and spoke in fury,
" How dare of those vampires! They dared to kidnap my luna, Alpha King's Luna. How dare they! "
Celeb was little anxious after witnessing his rage. He never saw Damien so angry very recently. Marcus was a calm and wise Alpha. After Damien ended his blabbering, Marcus decided to speak carefully,
" Your Highness! I can understand your anger but right now, the council and other packs aren't in your side. It would be very tough if we try to seek revenge from Vampires. Besides, we don't know the exact reason of this adduction. Why don't you restrain yourself for the time being untill we are strong enough to fight back?"
Marcus's words made sense but Damien was loosing his patience. Roaring out beastly, he replied between his fury,
" No, Marcus! I want revenge right now. How dare they lay their dirty hands on my Luna?"
Celeb agreed with Marcus's words. He tried to coax Damien cautiously,
" Control yourself Alpha! I am very sure that Luna would never agree with this proposal. She is equally concerned about the wellbeing of our pack."
Hearing the name of Viona, Damien relaxed a little. He raked his fingers roughly through his curls to restrain his anger. Marcus added with hesitation,
" Pardon me, Alpha! But I have a little doubt. Is your Luna Royal Blood somehow?"
Damien shook his head denying and replied curious over Marcus's words,
" No!! I am the last Royal Breed Alpha. Apart from me and my future pups, no one has Royal Blood running in their veins. Why do you ask?"
Marcus was a bit surprised. Hanging his head low in deep thoughts, he reasoned finding it strange,
" Last time, Luna mentioned that she met a Witch and probably they had a fight. According to my knowledge, no werewolf can skip Witch's spell until she has Royal Blood or very powerful wolf inside. I am just wandering. How did Luna manage to save herself from Witch's attack?"
Not only Marcus, this time Damien was equally concerned after his words.
Was there something that Damien didn't know!
