Chapter 40

Donald's Pov

"It must have been another act of illusion."  I reasoned, that will explain the electrical powers it relied on and the huge monstrous size it had. 

"What's wrong with this place?

why will Alpha Dess have so much protective shield in this small place?" Damien looked around in surprise.

He wasn't the only one one surprised, the once spacious room we were fighting in have started diminishing.

It's as if it wants to cave us in, we rushed towards the door, but it was no where to be found, it must have morphed into the walls.

"What in the goddess's name is going on?" Damien asked as we ran around searching for a loophole in this goddess forsaken place.

If I survive here long enough.

I won't dive into unknown territory without first mapping out a way in and out there.

Truth be told, we haven't gone on a mission without first knowing what we're up against.

The idea of our mate in pains was the only reason why we came here without thorough preparations.

The more time we would have wasted in the preparations the more pans our mate will pass through.

An idea came into my mind then, it should have been something we should have thought on when we found out about the maze.

"It might be an illusion, remember this is what have been happening since we came into this goddess forsaken house. "I looked around the room, there must be a loophole somewhere.

All we need to do is find it somewhere, it should be somewhere, it has to be.

"That must be true, " he agreed.

We looked up at the diminishing room, the more we run around the more it diminishes.

"Wait, stop for a minute." the room stopped it's diminishing progress the moment we stood static at a place.

This must be it, what fuels it's size is the amount of time we run around the room searching for ways of escape.

"Why did you ask me to stop? can't you see the room wants to cave in on us?" Damien looked worried at me.

"did you hit your head when you fell? that must be the only reason why you're asking me to cease my attempts of searching for an escape route. "

I pointed up towards the ceiling " take a step while looking up,"  pray it works.

If it doesn't we might die here, we survived the endless maze, the superhuman monster, and now we're in another problem.

If this room diminishes, we will be squashed to paste.

Alpha Dess might make use of the paste we've become to make sandwich for our mate.

The thought of that happening brought a nauseous feeling to my stomach.

True to my words, the moment he took a step forward, the room shrank a little.

He looked at me "what you said is true.how did you discover such a thing when we were busy looking for ways of escape?" he gave me an amazed look.

"What would I have done without you?" he looked genuinely grateful.

" No, what would I have done without you?  you were the one that discovered the hidden power source of the monster, left to me we would have died on the hands of the demon," truth be told, I've already given up on all hope of us leaving here alive.

"It was sheer luck that made the demon throw me towards the place his life source was coming from. If he had thrown me at the wall opposite, I wouldn't have discovered the hidden powers of the dreadful monster," he shrugged "you were the one that have saved my life numerous times. If Daniel was to have been here he will testify with me on the subject."

I shrugged " think what you may, you and Daniel have saved my life numerous times to count."

I looked at the problem in hand "  now we have to wait for it to return to the normal size. If it does the door might appear, and you know what next we have to do when it appears."

I hope that will be the case, the chances of us escaping I slim if the door didn't appear.

We might die of suffocation if we don't escape this room.

"How will we endure standing for how many minutes. it will take for this room to return back to its former size?" Damien's questions makes sense.

I haven't thought as far as that.

"Let's wait for a minute before we sit down," I  hope sitting down won't affect the rising of the room.

If it does we return back to square one, and the more time we waste the more time our mate spends in the presence of that beast of an Alpha.

If I was asked to pin point the people I thought might have a hand in the disappearance of our mate, he would have been the last person for me to call.

He was like a second father to us, a person we looked up to in our times of need.

" I still can't believe Alpha Dess is the person that kidnapped our mate. For goddess's sake, he was the one that helped us during our dark times, he was our father's closest friend. If not one one thing he would have been regarded as our uncle," Damien looks pained as he talked.

His mood is understandable，among us three he was the one Alpha Dess loved the most.

Alpha Dess was the only one who put Damien before us, he loved him to the extent we were all aware of how deep their bond runs.

I will understand if he doesn't want to be present when I teach that old man some lessons, ones he will never forget in his entire life.

I will show him how not to mess with Alphas. Especially triplets. 

I gave him a concerned look "don't worry you won't be there when I take his life. " that's the least I can do for my brother.

He shook his head "no I want to be the one he sees last."
