Chapter 20: Chapter 20

❤️❤️❤️ Willow and his Dragon-Wolf (Part 1) ❤️❤️❤️

Emerald and Arabella appeared at her secret Cave. King Ellen had long gone before she went to meet Arabella when the girl had summoned her.

Looking around the Cave with knee interest. "You are living in a Cave?" Arabella asked in surprise and it didn't fail to show In her face.

"Yes, this is where I do all my things." Emerald answered.

"Where do you sleep then?" Arabella asked as she couldn't see a bed.

"I don't sleep, one of the sacrifices I made to acquire my powers, the day I fall asleep is the name I will die." Emerald answered.

"Really?"

"Yes." She replied. "And believe me, it will be very hard, so hard for someone to make me sleep, such a person has not been born." She told her and walked to where she kept Jay's body with Arabella following her.

"And who is that?" Arabella asked as she stared at the young handsome guy sleeping.

"Willow's elder brother." Emerald answered.

"Willow has a brother? I didn't know, he never told me that. His brother is handsome but I still prefer Willow." Arabella said and her eyes widened in shock. "Wait a minute, Willow is from here?" She asked, still in shock.

"I thought you would have known by now that he is a Dragon Prince. He could have been the one here instead of his brother." Emerald replied.

"What do you mean Aunt?" Arabella asked, suddenly interested.

"Ten days ago when Willow was still twelve, I wanted him to eat an apple I used someone to give to him. His brother ate it instead." Emerald responded.

"Hold on, ten days ago and Willow was twelve?" Arabella eyes almost popped out their sockets.

"Yes." Emerald answered.

"How do you mean, are you trying to say I slept with a twelve year old boy?" Arabella asked, coming out of her shocked state.

"No, My blood curse made him grow into an adult in the human realm because he is a strong hybrid. So when he returns, he will still look as he was in the human realm. If Willow had eaten the apple and the curse was placed on Jay like I had thought, Jay would have died the next day because unlike Willow who is an hybrid, he is not and would died even though with the blood of all the King's and Queen's put together, he won't live to see the next sunrise." Emerald answered. "Henry won't have an heir who will rule his kingdom."

"..." Arabella wanted to say something but was interrupted by the shaking of the Cave which threw her off balance and she fell down to the ground, injuring her feet and having a bruise on the left side of her face. Staring at Emerald in shock as the wrinkled lady stretched out her hand to her which she grabbed and stood up.

"What was that Aunt?"

"That's Willow's wolf, he hungers for blood." Emerald replied and started laughing.

"Why are you laughing Aunt?"

"Just laughing at the foolishness of your twin sister." Emerald responded, still laughing.

"And why is that Aunt?" Arabella demanded smiling.

Stopping her laugh, she answered Arabella ."Aurora might be able to tame the heart of Willow from killing, but can she be able to tame his Wolf? She will die."

******

Willow didn't say a word, he was quiet and was thinking about her words, weighting it.

"What is your answer? Will you promise me or not Willow?" Aurora's voice brought him out of his thoughts.

"I don't use to kill until this curse, but in the human realm, I have seen you have to remain tough or you lose your life in the process of doing good." Willow said.

"It's not a big deal, I don't want you to kill or fight anyone again starting from this night."

"Then how do you expect me to protect you, us, when we are in danger?" Willow asked.

"By walking away from danger whenever you sense one coming, look Willow if you truly love me like you claim, you would have promised me and stop making excuses." Aurora told Willow.

Lucia hoped her son would agree to her promise. A promise made by a Dragon is never broken. If Willow promises and gives his words to her, it is sealed unless Aurora gives him her permission to fight thereby breaking up his promise.

"Often you don't see something but it's close by, you should know there's always a killer behind every person who commits suicide Aurora, i will only kill when I see danger, I can't promise you that and know I am leaving you unprotected." Willow said, why can't his Aurora understand.

"Willow, have you ever sat down to think if your mum or dad or your sisters would want your kind of life that you are living right now for you? Have you ever thought if they are happy with your way of life? Look at your dad or mum or sisters face and tell me if you have ever seen them smile whenever you are back from killing one of your victim's? In life if you want to become something, achieve something, win something ... then always listen to your heart ... and if your heart doesn't reply to you then close your eyes and take the name of your mum and dad ... then see you will achieve everything, everything that is hard will become easy ... victory will be yours, just yours but you don't know how much pain you are causing them right now. I don't want you to kill or engage yourself in a fight and if you agree," Aurora paused knowing her next words will make Willow agree. It was the only way. "Then I will let you kiss me." She added watching Willow's face, wanting to see his facial reaction.

And she wasn't disappointed.
