Chapter 35:I miss you

"We are almost at the border of Eldrida kingdom, just two more turns before we reach the border of Eldrida". Brody replied.

Then let's go. She said hastily. She needed to see if her husband is still perfectly fine and has not been taken away from her.

Just as she said those words, A heart breaking scream erupted out of her mouth when she heard a high pitch growl coming from above them.

The same monstrous beast that had attacked them in the midnight had suddenly appeared above them, their heads were as huge a large river with their Black-ish nose and ears. Their eyes weren't normal as it was a mixture blood red and emerald green. But that wasn't what caught her attention, it was their fangs.

Their fangs were longer than any normal supernatural creatures fangs. Their fangs were almost reaching their chest level.

The monstrous beast growled angrily and the earth shook.

"Milady run, while I block it from reaching and attacking you". Brody yelled loud enough for Catherine to pick up her heels and started running as fast as she could. This was one reason while she hated being a lady. Every lady that is a princess has been bound to long ball gowns and dresses making it difficult for them to run. Sh head always wished to know how to fight but her greedy - for - power father, the king of hilltop kingdom only used her to gain more powers to his kingdom.

While she was running as fast as she could, she didn't dare look back to see how the monstrous beast growled and Brody was fighting it with all his power, strength and might. This was the time she wished she had supernatural powers, if she had had supernatural powers, she wouldn't even bat an eye before killing the monstrous beast. And she also wished he was here. The thought of him killing this beastful creature without bating an eye was so easy to him.

She kept running non stop. She must reach the border of Eldrida so she could look for help.

While she was running, she didn't see where she was about to step on and she tumbled and fell flat on her tommy.

Arghhh, she groaned And tried to stand up when something wet and sloppy grabbed her wrist tightly.

"AHHHHHHH! ! ! ! ! ,LET ME GO! ! ! !". She screamed in horror but the sloppy hand didn't let her go and kept on pulling her deeper into the huge deep mud that looked disgusting. Catherine tried to fight but the sloppy hand was so strong that she closed her eyes and did something unexpected that she never for once thought she'd do.

"LUCAS PLEASE SAVE ME".

She said as she kept trying to wriggle herself free from this strange and weird hand that sloppily pulling her deep into the dirty mud. Her clothes were already covered in muds and first, even her face and her hair.

******************

Meanwhile, back in the black forest where Lucas had decided to hunt any wild dangerous animal, he slowly dropped his bow and arrow on the floor as he suddenly felt a sharp prick in his chest.

He suddenly fell on his knees as he clutched his chest tightly gasping for breath. What was happening to him? ! This has never happened to him before so why now? !

He closed his eyes tightly trying to kill the pain but it was as though he had worsened it the more. His fore head was covered in bead of sweats, the sweat slowly dripping down his face as he kept on clutching his chest hard and tightly with his eyes closed.

As his eye were closed, he suddenly saw a furry image of a girl being pulled deeply inside a mud and calling out his name. A she was trying to surpress his pain, he heard that horrific voice again,

"Lucas, please save me".

That voice- that voice looks familiar,so so familiar until his eyes flew wide open in realization.

"Catherine! " He whispered before the pain he was feeling was suddenly consumed by utter rage.

His vision became blurry with high pitched rage.

He suddenly stood up and his wings appeared behind him flapping against each other before Lucas flew in the sky in search of his wife.

It didn't take him long enough to find her as he saw a silhouette of a girl trying to wriggle her self free from something that was pulling her deeply into the mud.

He ran like a bullet and pulled Catherine with a strong fierce force making most of the muds splashed on his clothes and face.

Catherine gasp in shock as she felt his familiar scent.

"Lucas, you came. " She managed to say as she stared inside his dark black grey eyes.

Lucas eyes fell on her and his gaze swept her body from head to toe before he looked back at her.

"Are you hurt?!" Was the first thing he said and Catherine shook her head.

No,I'm perfectly fine now that you came to save me. I miss you. She said hugging him tightly. While Lucas sharp gaze was on the sloppy hand that had dared to drag his wife.

Anger irked inside of him.

And where the freaking hell is Brody that was supposed to protect her? !

Catherine pulled away when she noticed how Lucas has been quiet.

What's wrong? She managed to ask.

Nothing is wrong but why the hell are you out here when you are supposed to be at the Duke's house being protected? He asked In a calm tone but Catherine could hear the faint anger that was slowly covering him.

But he was only being calm because of her.

Catherine bit her lower lips hard as slowed tears formed at the corner of her eyes.

"I- tho-ught that they took you away from me and I forced Brody to bring me back to Eldrida, then all of a sudden we were suddenly being ambushed and attacked by some weird monstrous beasts". Catherine said letting the tears finally rolled down her cheeks. It was because of her that the Coachman was dead and now Brody was fighting with his life to protect her.
