**Unknown**
I see her.
My magical mirror shows her. It reads my heart.
She is f*****g gorgeous.
I had seen her when she was a baby, I held her in my hands.
I never thought she can grow up so sexy.
All this time I waited for her to turn 18 so that I can have her powers.
But now, I want her.
All of her.
I want her body beneath me.
If she is mine, not only her body but her powers will also be mine.
"Two more days, she will be with you, My Lord" my subordinate tell me.
A smirk appears on my face.
"What about the attack?" I ask him.
"On it, My Lord," he says.
I want to see the fear in her eyes, it brings her closer to me.
"What about the person we had sent?" I ask rubbing my chin with my fingers.
"She has been captured, My Lord", he says swaying his head.
"Remove her from there and get her here," I say.
"As you wish, My Lord," he says.
My servants scream in unison,
Hail the lord, Manus Constantine!!
Hail Dark Whisperers!!
Hail Dark World!!
My eyes back on the princess.

**Amyra**
As we near the store which Alex had texted, I see Alex with an old lady, sitting at a table.
As soon I reach them, Alex gets up to greet me and he introduces me to the old lady.
"Amy...she is Sameera, my mother"
"Mom...Amyra" he says.
We greet each other. She hugs and kisses me on the forehead.
"I am happy to see you finally," she says.
"I knew you were alive," she says as tears start flowing through her cheeks.
Sameera explains everything that she had seen 18 years back. She says that a picture of my mother's horrified face when the rogues took me, has imprinted in her eyes.
She explains it was a total night, the day when the moon didn't appear, no sounds of animals or birds were heard, the whole forest was quiet witnessing the scene.
Only your screams and cries echoed the forest.
Alex's eyes reveal pain as she explains the scene in detail.
Sincerity in her eyes makes me feel discomfort, but I don't know how to react.
This whole time Sameera has clasped my hands in hers.
After some time, I hear Josh calling my name.
I turn to see.
Alex immediately takes my hand and we run towards Josh.
"Alex take Amyra and leave now," he says to which Alex nods
"What happened?" I ask completely shocked.
Why was Josh here? Why he is asking us to leave?
"I'll explain later," says Alex.
We turn to leave and see a handsome guy standing a few feet away in front of us.
He slowly moves towards us.
He smiles and opens his fangs.
Panic-stricken I hold Alex's arms tightly.
Suddenly, Aaron appears in between us and Vampire.
"Aaron..." Josh calls out.
"Alex...take her away," Aaron screams.
The vampire runs towards us in the lighting speed, but Aaron shifts into a wolf.
What. The. f**k.
Aaron shifts in the mid-air and plunges on the vampire before he could reach us.
I am dumbstruck seeing Aaron shifting into wolf form, a large grey color wolf.
Alex grabs my hand tightly and we start to run, but we stop in the tracks as we look around to see we are surrounded by wolves and vamps.
We start to step back slowly and we stop.
"I won't allow anything to happen to you," Alex says leaving my hand.
I try to hold him, but he squeezes my hand reassuring me by looking into my eyes.
In seconds, he shifts into a large black color wolf and stands in front of me.
I take a look surrounding, everyone is fighting with others in wolf forms.
I see even Sameera has turned to wolf and fighting.
I stand in the center helplessly.
Surveying the wolves surrounding me, I feel sick to my stomach.
I hear howls aloud, I try to close my ears and eyes.
After some time, I open my eyes to see so many wolves and vamps trembling in pain on the ground.
Shit! few people are normal human beings like me. They are suffering in pain and some have died.
What is happening here?
Why they have involved in the fighting with Wolves and vamps?
I run towards them, I see a person bleeding heavily, I hold him and try to look around where I can get some help, I ask him to stay with me and breathe, but instantly he loses his life in my hands.
I run to the other, he has been bitten by a vamp, he looks pale as if whole blood has been drawn from his body, he loses his life too.
Fuck!
I run to a kid, who is crying continuously kneeling beside his mother who is dead, he is trying to shake and wake her up.
Oh God! my heart pains to see that.
I hold the kid tightly against my chest.
I feel tears in my eyes as I try to console him.
Someone grabs my hand, I turn to see Alex.
"Leave me," I say.
"Trust me, I am taking you to a safe place," he says.
He almost drags me out of the place, I stumble a couple of times.
He takes me to someone's house, kicking the door open and he forces me to a room, closing it back.
I yell at him to open the door.
After felt like an hour.
He opens the door.
Alex, Josh, and another person enter the room.
"Alex...please take me there. I need to see that kid...he needs our help " I say holding his hands, tears flowing.
Alex hugs me looking sad.
"That kid died due to the vamp bite, we couldn't help him," he says.
"What..." I whisper shoving his hands off.
"We could have saved him" I beat him on his chest repeatedly.
"Why?"
"What is all this?"
"Why they are killing people?"
I kneel on the floor, holding both my palms on my face and crying continuously.
Alex kneels to the side of me.
"This all is happening because of you," someone says, I look up at him...he is the other person who came with Alex and Josh.
