Chapter 976 - THEY ARE UNDER MY MERCY

Calleb and Ethan yelled loudly, throwing all the profanities that they knew into the nothingness. However, no matter what they said, no one would come to save them in this d*mned place!

"Sh*t!F*ck that dragon shifter!" Ethan was beyond frustrated when he kicked the steel bar, while Calleb was trying to tear that metal apart, but with no avail. "What happened to Hope? Why did she fall unconscious again all of a sudden?!"

Even in the midst of his anger and frustration, Ethan was still worried about his friend.

Hope was unconscious out of the blue, it was fortunate enough that they moved fast and held her head before she could hit the hard floor.

However, without their beast and since their strength had been reduced because of the after effects of the spell that was casted during the battle in the castle before, they didn't have enough power to fight those dragon shifters and keep Raine and Hope safe!

The situation was already very bad, but they didn't think it would become even worser than it already might be.

"We shouldn't trust those dragon people! F*ck them all!" Ethan kicked the metal bars again, but it only hurt his feet. He laughed sarcastically. This body without their beast was nothing but a useless shell.

Ethan didn't know when was the last time he felt this feeling of hurt, because their healing ability would heighten their endurance, yet he felt hurt when he was kicking those metal bars.

Ethan kept cursing when he took off his shoes and watched his feet which now started bleeding. "What is this? This just sucks!" He hurled the shoes against the wall and shouted.

If Ian was there, he would be freaked out by his twin's behavior right now, since Ethan would be the calmest person between the two of them and him cursing or losing his temper were always out of question, but seeing him now, even their mother wouldn't recognize him.

However, it was understandable.

Who wouldn't lose their mind if they had to face a situation similar to what they were in now? They would probably act even more impulsive than Ethan now.

"Stop shouting," Calleb said tiredly, he leaned against the wall and slid down to the dirty ground. "No one will come to this part of the place."

Twenty against two. Those dragon people didn't even had to put much effort when they fought Calleb and Ethan, before throwing them into the deeper parts of the dungeon in this place.

Even Calleb didn't know that this place existed before this.

Those dragon people must have thought this thoroughly until they could come with this idea and find this place.

"So, what should we do now?" Ethan glared at Calleb, despite knowing what he said was right. "Wait for someone to look for us? Who knows what those sh*tty dragons have done by now out there?!"

Calleb didn't answer that immediately. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the dim room, but he couldn't find much here. "Let's hope for Lilac to realize it before they can do something even worse."

That was the only hope that they had, but Calleb didn't elaborate the doubt that was gnawing at the back of his mind. Since Theseus had thought about it carefully, they must have planned out all the possibilities.

Calleb closed his eyes and took a deep sigh. He didn't want to think, but his head kept throbbing painfully, while his heart started beating really fast.

He didn't want anything else, he just wanted to be with his mate now…

============== 

"Where is the phoenix?" Purple looked at Theseus coldly.

The fae was now being dragged into a room, when she realized the phoenix that supposed to be with her had gone for hours. It was not something normal to happen.

She was about to go to Hope's room, as the mythical bird was often there, since the guardian angel fell unconscious. However, no one was inside the room.

Thus, she thought of going to Raine's room.

Hope and Lilac had just woken up and only a few guards had saw them, but those lycan warriors had been taken care of by the dragon people.

Therefore, Purple didn't feel anything suspicious when she saw Theseus's people hovering around Raine's room, because she thought they were just replacing the lycan warrior posts, yet right after she was dragged inside she saw Raine and Hope on the bed, seemingly unconscious without their protector in their near sights, only then did she understand that something fishy was going on here.

Theseus's behavior only amplified her doubts.

"The phoenix is with you." That was not a question, but a statement. Purple knew that she was right by the way Theseus looked, mockingly, at her.

"I know who you are," Theseus said in a low and eerie voice. "You are the rare kind of fae that we have been looking for…"

Purple narrowed her eyes, she knew that before this, those fire dragon shifters had been demanding for baby Eddard to be handed over to them, since they knew Lana was one of the descendent of the said fae.

However, baby Eddard couldn't be compared to Purple, since she was a pure fae of that rare race. It was akin to hitting a jackpot for Theseus when he learnt about Purple's origin.

"…And it happened that you can resuscitate our beasts, because you are the same fae who sealed the vow with us, dragon people." Theseus raised his brows and stood up from his seat to approach the fae. "Right?"

"Do you think you can scare me?" Purple glanced at the two guardian angels on the bed and then at the twenty dragon people inside the room. "I can burn all of you to the ground right here, right now."

However, that threat didn't bother Theseus at all, he even chuckled merrily. "Then, my people will kill the phoenix. How will you fight that monster under the frozen river without that mythical bird? Or, how will you win the war when those lycanthropes can already smell the defeat just after a few days of battle?" he glanced at Raine and Hope. "Even the two guardian angels are under my mercy now."

Meanwhile, knowing her position, Purple didn't show much expression on her face when she finally said, "What do you want now?"
