SAVING MY FAMILY

Molly POV

        Everything was right at first then it wasn't and the worst part is that I have no idea where the source is from. The plan was set, Melissa was suppose to go to her mother's hometown to revive her dead body. Davis was suppose to be back by now after seeing that seer witch Freya.

And now Devaro casted a spell on Melissa and Micage making them love him and consider him their real brother, its not as if they never considered him it's just that this attention was different in a way that it was that of master and slave, forced loyalty.

At first I thought that was just too sad and unreasonable in both side. I grew a soft spot for him, then I had to overhear the true reason for his plan.

For the title.

Mel and Cage already explained it to me, I once had a queen to queen chat with Melissa about it so I understand how big of a deal it was and the future of the kingdom rested on it. I wanted Mel to rule forever but the issues with Igaro, her mate had made this hard for her. I understand how big of a decision it was and now Devaro wants it for selfish reasons of course.

As the day drew by I had a itch, it was the one you never know where its from and you can't scratch it.

You can imagine how miserable I was.

It got stronger whenever I walk by the hallway to the dungeon. Melissa made sure I knew ever hook and crook of the palace if case of emergency.

It was pretty easy getting fed up with the itching so I decided to find the source.

I only had to opportunity to go down the dungeon at night. Devaro had been keeping an eye on me and if not him Cage did.

I have only ever been down here once and it was by mistake. It hate it here ,the smell, the tightness, and the memories of Melissa torturing a man.

The demons weren't the only thing we had to face, criminal offenses and other bad things still loomed in this world and as ruler, Melissa always make sure to pass the necessary justice. No matter what I still hate it here and itching wouldn't stop either. pulling me down a very scary cell.

'Okay I can do this am not weak am strong'

I try facing my fear and walking further into the cell everywhere was plain, spotless and cold, I shivered both in fear and cold. It became darker the further I went in and more damper I couldn't help the shivers that went through me. At last I met a somewhat bright place, I caught sight of a torch, lighting it, it made the cell more brighter and also gave me a view of a man tied to multiple silver chains.

He was slump with his long dark hair covering his face. There was no way I wouldn't recognize that pack of muscle or the tattoos on both his arms.

Horror seize me at what I saw

"Igaro!!!! Oh my God!!! What happened to you?"

I didn't want to believe my eyes but I did. The itch was gone now and I now realize why.

'What monster would do this to poor Igaro', How long has he been here?'

I didn't have time to think over this all I knew was I had to free him.

He was chained with silver and iron, lycans kyptonite, luckily not to humans.

I worked the chains as quick as I could. He looked so pale , he couldn't even stand.

"Who did this to you?"

I had an idea but it hurt to even imagine.

It took sometime and a whole lot of breathing. Silver and Iron did that to a Lycan, where silver weakens wolves and Iron, magical. Lycan were weakened by both and never just one.

'Oh!! Igaro!!'

"Devaro"

My eyes widen at the name going back to recall our conversation.

"Where is Igaro?"

"I sent him to a far place where he won't be a nuisance to anybody"

But why? How?

I fell backwards, stuck with bewilderment.

"How could Devaro do something like this to his own sister's mate..... Holly fuck!"

My hands found his shoulders before my mind could question my rough handle.

"You have to save Melissa, Devaro plans to mate with her and become Alpha king tomorrow night"

Despite his obvious pain, he still manage to growl out,

"No..... Mate..... Mine"

'Love does fight over pain, huh! Well if it was a certain golden boy in this state I sure will go through any kind of pain just for him'

I felt the blush rising at my though but quickly shook it off to answer him.

"I know, I know, she's yours and no one else but you can't do anything in this state"

     The situation was really shocking and with limited time, yet still I was able to piece the clues together.

Their food was poisoned, his weird behaviour, the twins sudden change of character. It all link up but I still don't get how he was able to charmed them, I clearly remember Cage telling me that they were resistant to each other, like he couldn't read their thoughts.

"King Devaro good..... King Devaro charmed"

Charmed? Now that changes everything, I thought it was the twins that was charmed.

Ugh! This is all confusing but it had to stop.

"You have to find Xander, Igaro. We need help"

He looked nowhere okay in the state for transportation, bit we didn't have time.

"No.... Stop King Devaro..... Save him"

'Save him? I really think Igaro hit his head somewhere because Devaro is the obvious villain here'

"You can't do that in this state and I think they need your help more over there than here"

Now I remember how Devaro spoke in that villain tone of disposing them.

"I over heard Devaro talking about having them in a warehouse, one of Kings corporative I think. In Kansas. You have to hurry, I don't think they have much time there"

I don't think we haven't time either. Devaro will surely be looking for me by now.

"I will have a carriage drive you there, it's more sufficient for you right now in this state"

I had to help him stand and put less of his weight on me to help him walk.

"Ugh! Mate?"

"Save them then save her"

Am surprised by the authority in my voice but we didn't have much time.

             All my life I was always protected unknowingly by a pack of wolves, because it was their duty and nature to help the weak, we human. Growing up the only protector I ever knew and met was Micage, My childhood crush and now my mate.

Now here I am finding ways to protect my family even though I have no freaking idea how. Am suppose to be the weak human protected by wild wolves, now the table has been turned am the weak humans saving the wild wolves.

              If you had told me years back I would be in this type of situation. The old be would have laugh calling you delusional for saying a lamb could a wolf, that old me would have prefer saving cats, stopping bullies, helping the elderlies cross roads etc.

That was my life.

            The clues should have been enough to prepare me I mean we are getting ready for a fucking war, I should have known the enemy would plan. What the heck am I going to do. Am not like Lydia though she seem sweet but she knew how to fight. Am so dead

The weeding is tomorrow evening, I can't watch a barbaric union take place.

***

            I hurriedly left the dungeon heading upstairs to my floor, I had tone discreet, I had to avoid them all. It wasn't safe, Devaro really isn't safe to be with. How could I not have known he was charmed well mostly them, it had to be that emerald necklace on them but Devaro never wore any I would have known because that dude hate buttoning up, he likes showing off skin to much perfect smooth skin.

Ugh! This is going to be so hard.

I had just reached Devaro's floor when I saw a maid walk out, she was short with black hair and the full apron, I couldn't see her face but there was something about her, I couldn't place my fingers right on what, she was quick to walk out of the hallway and I headed straight to the door. Devaro sat on a sofa with a frustrated look on his face, he had on only a small piece of material with his chest bare. Melissa and Micage were also present standing like statues in front of him.

'This wasn't good, having them all together wasn't good at all I have to get the hell out of here'

"Molly"

Luck wasn't on my side why? Devaro must have smelled me and now I was caught.

"Molly come here"

Like a child caught stealing a cookie from its jar I made myself known with slow steps towards him, Mel and Cage haven't noticed me yet and my fear of him grew slowly.

"Where have you been Molly?"

Fuck I knew I didn't have much time before they noticed my absence but whatever for.

"I was out"

There was no way I will give myself out or show fear, I am Molly Tyler, I don't take shit from anybody.

"Molly!!!"

His growl was angered, the look in his eyes was that he wanted to dispose me. I saw him sniff and knew he could smell Igaro on me , Cage always smelled me and tells me who I have been with without me telling him.

"If only I can read your thoughts or control you, little human"

Another quip of being me, I am immune to all their wakkie power control. Cage said he used to read all my thoughts before but ever since we met again and knew we were mates he couldn't, the Devaro also declared that he couldn't use what was it again oh! Yeah! His silver tongue powers on me and Mel well apart from her power of the roar and the intense aura of power they all have she too couldn't influence me with her power of the main food chain. Yay! Lucky me.

"Unless....."

That look on his face right now has me taking a step back, the glint in his eyes and the smirk on his lip had me shivering. I cast a glance to the twins and they were still a block of statue while their brother looked like he wanted to eat me.

'Seriously you guys!'

"Little brother....."

'He promised to protect me but now who was going to protect me from him'

"... Mark her"

My eyes widened.

'Mark me? As in bite me? Holly fuck no!!.

That simple command Devaro ordered sent shivers through me, I admit Cage had made advances before to mark me, every time he would say he'd give me time, time to fully process his family and the war that was heading our way and I agree that there were time I wanted to complete the bond but not like this.... Not when he wasn't himself.

"Little brother I said Mark her.... Now"

Charmed or not I never liked Devaro and I doubt I still will. I don't want to get marked now at least not like this. I turn wanting to get far far away from here,

Slender hands with enough strength held me in place. I gasp when I realized it was Melissa. How she was able to catch me fast I didn't care but cried helpless for her to stop this.

"Melissa please don't let Cage bite me, please"

It was pointless. She didn't even blink but looked spaced out following a command that she normally wouldn't follow in the first place. She would have reasoned with Cage in her own way command him not to but she wasn't even here.

"Melissa please I know that you are in there, stop this please"

I take it back, being reasonable is fucking hard as a double cheese burger, once this ordeal is over I promise to never call her an old hack with no fun. Being the responsible one in the family is a big yes.

"Melissa please, I don't want to die"

To hell with pretense, I don't want to die. I know Cage told me it wouldn't hurt if he did it right and less painful for me but hell he isn't in his right mind. I think am gonna die.

"Please. ..."

Rough hands drew my hair sideways

You know they always say in books that a male can mark his female anywhere even Cage told me that I get to choose where I want it to be, I had planned on having it on my wrist or even my ankle, you know for non-obvious reasons but here the thing is even though the books says the mate decides and Cage also said so, it still ends up the same place, the junction between the neck and the shoulder and I think that's exactly where am going to get mine with the way Cage is staring at it.

Am such a dumbass, I shouldn't be worrying about that now, I should be running and trying to escape.

"Cage please don't do this"

There is surely going to be regrets later in the future. I just hope I don't die before then.

I felt his hot breath on me causing my hair to rise.

'He said I would need be calm and relaxed when he does it, I would feel pleasure, I would love it, well I definitely am not calm and relax and am one hundred percent sure I will feel a hell lot of pain'.

"Ple-"

I shut my mouth fast. Why if you make ask well due to my main focus on Cage I forgot about the other being in front of me who had also half morph into a Lycan and was staring at my other neck hungrily.

'What..... The... Hell.....'

They lunge and I froze.

Consumed with so much emotions I felt my eyes go to the back of my head.

It felt like I was in cloud nine no cloud one million with the tingles and sparks dancing behind my eye lid, I could almost see them. I felt their heartbeat beat as one, I felt mine slowly following theirs.

The pain was non existent but pleasure and oh so much, I felt my blood boil with warmth, I hummedas I felt I wasn't bitten by two people but one.

Slowly I felt a fang leave me causing me to fall backwards into the arms of another that held me tighter to their body. It was bliss the feelings, It was like a pulse in my mind that beat just for him, my mate, his scent, his warmth, him just him.

"What have you two done?"

They both growled at once, becoming aggressive towards the voice that disrupted this peaceful haven.

"Ours"

'This goes far beyond anything I have ever heard or read'

"What?!" Devaro spoke the words for both of us.

Cage let out a snarl holding me tighter.

"Mate, mine"

I felt dizzy. It was too much, I just want to fall asleep why can't they stop staring at me, why can't I feel Melissa, who was that maid talking with Devaro? I hope Igaro is safe wherever he is, oh I need my bed now.

*****

I awoke in pain, pain in my body and a major stiffness in my neck. Not only that I felt cold I tried searching for any warmth that I needed but I sensed it was far away, oh I need that warmth, I need Micage.

My eyes opened at my last thought along with the reason why my neck felt stiff, everything still felt too much the smell mostly coming from somewhere in the room, a very thick scent of an expensive cologne mixed with that of an alluring spicy vanilla.

"Try and relax, your body is still healing and coming in terms with the bonding"

That voice.....

I knew that voice, that deep hypnotizing voice that I was starting to hate.

I was alone with the villain and as much as I wanted to strangle his neck right now I still couldn't move so I decided to be civil and ask.

"Why....?"

Gosh even my voice sounded crack, what I would do for a glad of water.

"Well for obvious reasons of course you are planning on ruing my plan and I can't let that happen"

Even without seeing his face I could just as well imagine his cool collective look.

I wanted to tell him a full sentence like how he wasn't himself and was somehow charge and how I was suspecting one of the maids and how I needed him to get back to his sadistic self but all that came out from my dried up throat was.

"Not... You... Ple.... Stop"

Am helpless. How was he able to control the twins, I thought they were immune to his silver tongue just as I was unless this charm has something to do with it cause not only were the twins controlled but the whole castle does his biddings.

"You pitiful human"

Okay now that was almost the Devaro I know, he wasn't too sweet like the twin at least now I know his own charm was different from theirs.

"Any how I did get what I wanted since Micage marked you, I can know what you are thinking or planning but what I never expected was for Melissa to bond you".

Neither could I, whatever you call it but, I did remember the look in her eyes when I begged her, it was a fleeting look in her dazed eyes, maybe Mel was still there and this was her only was to help me by bonding with me and filling me with a foreign energy. I could feel Micage pulsing in my head alright it was like a radio frequency. I could also feel that rope that bonded us together, our souls were joined but the mating wasn't complete that I now knew would be inevitable. But with Melissa..... She did something to me, I could see more clearly, could smell more sharply, I felt lighter and stronger, the only thing keeping me from standing and trying out my strength was the fact that the two holes in my neck were still taking time to heal. I wondered what form Cage's mark will give me, for stereotypes it was a tattoo of some sort of a wolf but Lycans were different, the twins were different so it made me wonder.

"Well be sure to rest well Molly and stay out of my way, I wouldn't want to hurt you since you are already like a sister to me. I must go now"

So Devaro was still here and talking to me I guess I was still lost in my thoughts but still that doesn't mean I was going to listen to him, I was going to stop his plan and save my family.
