Chapter 5

Annabelle rushed towards the room her queen was being kept with urgency and the other rulers who followed her trailing at her back. She barged in without bothering to knock and gasp when she saw what the queen was about to do and without hesitancy, she knocked the queen off her feet resulting in both of them landing on the floor with Annabelle straddling her and holding her hand above her head fiercely

"LET ME GO!!!!" Queen Lilith screamed her demon form already out to kill who has interrupted her from going to meet her mate on the other side

Annabelle got off Queen Lilith switching place with King Luther who continued t hold the queen down

"Please just let me die, I cannot live in a world without Sammy being in it. Please I beg you" queen Lilith weep pitifully

King Luther could not help but feel pity for the queen who looks like she has lost her mind. He put two and two together and figured out that Samuel was killed by Kronos, anyone that is held captive by Kronos is as good as dead.

Lord Ares shakes his head at the pitiful state of the demon ic queen who always seems calm and collected but at this point looks so broken beyond repair.

Annabelle's heart broke for her queen and for the loss of her king, the man who saved and helped her on numerous occasions she mourned for him and could not help the tears that escaped from her eyes but at the same time she worried for Amethyst

"What about Amethyst?"

"I don't know" queen Lilith replied without emotion staring into outer space like she turned off her emotion

"How can you not know? Think! Where is Amethyst?'

"I SAID I DO NOT KNOW" queen Lilith screamed angrily her claw drawing out

"Try and think, where is Amethyst?' Annabelle shouted in frustration squatting down to look her in the eyes

Queen light starts gripping her hair and shouting but went quiet when she went limp in the next second. Queen Lilith blacked out when King Luther used his powers to put her to sleep

"How could you ask her that when she is still grieving for her mate" king Luther voiced out provoked while putting Queen Lilith on her bed

"There is time is plenty of time for mourning right we need to know whether Amethyst is still alive or not. The dead and the living are two different things" Annabelle argued

King Luther walked towards Annabelle

"Listen

OPEN THE GATE

Screams could be heard outside, everyone rushed to the window balcony to see what was happening. The sight the saw left them in surprise

Amethyst ran with all her strength a voice chanting in her head

SURVIVE

Amethyst ran with all her might with two of the coven of witches and an army of the undead chased after her laughing at her mockingly and hauntingly

A ray of hope she felt as she saw the gate of the boundary/castle and she started screaming with all her might.

"OPEN THE DOOR"

She screamed with all her might running with a bleeding arm and torn dress

The monarchs watched as they saw the maiden running screaming with everything she had within her. Annabelle screamed for her friend

"Why are they not opening the gate for her?" Annabelle bellowed at the monarch not giving a care in the world grabbing King Luther's arm

"it might be a trap" Lord Ares voiced out none affected by the sight before him but wary about falling into a trap.

"Open the gate for her please, alpha Zeus she is your mate. That is your mate out there, say something" Annabelle begged going on her knees as she pleaded for them to save her friends life

"Lord Ares is right, this might be a trap we have to think clearly before making and decision" Alpha Zeus replied his wolf begging him to go out there and save his mate but his stubborn human side wanting to think logically before falling into any trap

Annabelle looked at Alpha Zeus in disgust, how could a man be heartless towards his mate

"Luther, please for my sake tell them to open the gate for her and save her. Please I beg you" Annabelle hugged his knees as she begged.

King Luther remained quiet, he could not bear that his beloved is in distress but he could not think with his heart but his head. What Lord Ares and Alpha Zeus said was right, this could be a trap. He looked down on his beloved who hugged his knees and was looking up to him with teary eyes and were begging. He took her by her two arms, bring her up to a standing level wiping away her tears and looking at her straight in her eyes

"I am sorry love" King Luther uttered looking past Annabelle to the guard who was behind her a slight nod to take her away

Betrayal, a betrayal that was the only thing Annabelle felt at this moment. From her mates and the people that were meant to broke people like Amethyst and herself.

"You all are cowards, coward I tell you!! We are doomed if we have leaders like you, I hate you all" Annabelle bawled as she was taken away

The monarch paid no more attention as the screaming woman was taken away. Alpha's heart broke when his mate is still running and screaming towards the gate for it to be open. King Luther felt what he did was best for the safety of his mate and people. Lord Ares smirked as he saw the maid that disrespected his run for her life.

The gates have been opened the announcer called out

The monarchs looked below the edge of the caste they were standing on and saw Annabelle running towards Amethyst who was about to be caught by the Soldiers of the undead and coven of witches. King Luther heart hammered in his chest at his beloved risking her life for her friend, he wanted to go to save her but the vampire race will be non-existent if he dies and millions of lives will be lost if one life has to be lost even if it is his other half he has no option.

Amethyst ran towards Annabelle who was running towards her with an inhumane speed. Annabelle caught up with Amethyst instead of helping and running back to the gate with Amethyst, she shouted

Run and do not look back

And ran past her roaring a war cry in a different language

"∂∂₮₰₭₱₴₦!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

(Translations: Death is not the end)

Annabelle outstretches her hand while running towards the army of the undead, a screeching sword which made the army of the dead stop and holds the ears in pain. The monarchs held there ears too but are still watching the scene happening

A golden sword flies through and enters the grasp of Annabelle's hand causing markings to appear from her hands to her neck, turning her hair white and eyes pure silver

The monarch eyes widen in surprise, they could not believe they could not believe it

The markings and the sword of the imperial navy, but it is impossible. They were wiped off the surface of Gaia. And the sword she holds belongs to the deceased commander. They looked in confusion; the coven of witches could not help as fear crept their body. Their previous coven was killed by the imperial navy.

Annabelle charged forward fighting as the army of the undead surrounded her to have a taste of her blood. She held the blade even a perfect undaunted horizon always leveled with her nose just as she was taught. The sword in her right hand slashing through the undead like a master who has spend many years of practice and experience. They came after her one after the other and she fought without a break of sweat, giving it her all as her hair followed her in every direction she went and her moves like a beautiful ballerina. The monarch gawked at the woman who appeared weak but looked stronger than all of them combined, the way she effortlessly used her swords and her fighting stance were beyond amicable.

The coven of witches knew that if something would not be done, they will lose the fight that is already yet to be begun.

The joined their hands together and started their chantation

"₸₵₴₺₩₧₰₰₰"

A conflagration of fire from thin air was formed and Annabelle was too busy fighting the army of the undead to notice the fire being directed to her

Annabelle turned and saw the fire coming towards her and she was being held in place by two of the army of the undead as she struggled to get free. Seeing the fire getting close to her, she struggled more

DANG

Amethyst stood in front of Annabelle with her red hair floating mid air and her eyes pure purple

as her body sucked in the fire and she levitated mid-air

Annabelle got freed from the army of the undead as she hurried on one knee with her hand on her chest, her sword on the ground, and head bowed down.

The witches of the coven cowered in fear and they were still in self-doubt, it could not be they said to themselves. They made sure they killed everyone and made sure no one survived how it is possible. Theodore and Matilda never had a child, could it be that? They gasp in surprise as they shook and trembled in fear.

Amethyst look unaffected by the fire

The army of undead tried to charge at amethyst but with just a look they were destroyed, without their will they were forced to move towards Amethyst who was controlling them,

"Who are you?" they said in unison in and shaky voice

In a close range, Amethyst outstretched her two hands towards their chest, taking their heart out in one swift motion and smiling manically

"₴₼∂₵₴ Amethyst"

(Translation: I am Amethyst)

The end.
