Chapter 632: You ruined everything

Meanwhile in Ferber.

The light was gone. The darkness was gone as well. What was left in the wake of those two overwhelming powers that had collided was a massive and softly shimmering amber crystal. The crystal looked like an upside down blade of a sword – where its hilt was buried into the ground and its blade was pointed towards the sky.

In the middle of the blade-like crystal, there could be seen the silhouette of the now trapped Gavrael. He was frozen in a standing position, with his massive black wings still spread out majestically behind him. His hands were down at his sides, and he looked like an angel of darkness who had been trapped in a deep, peaceful slumber.

Evie was currently hovering right across him. Her wings were flapping steadily as she stayed right there, one of her palms extended and touching the crystal – right across where his chest would be.

There were no tears that remained in her eyes. What was left was just pure pain and quiet rage.

She stayed there for an immeasurable amount of time. Unmoving. Silent. If not for her own wings that were flapping as well, it would seem as though she had turned into a statue herself.

Until the earth shook, and she heard Onyx’s roars reverberating in her mind. She finally moved and forced herself to screw her eyes tightly closed. Onyx appeared in her mind. He was inside a massive cave, restricted by a powerful dark magic. Then she saw her other dragons and her palm against the crystal holding Gavrael captive clenched into a fist. The fierce battle going on in the camp, the number of monsters…

When her lashes fluttered open, her amber eyes had hardened as though it were a golden lifeless stone. She looked at Gav and the pain sharpened as she choked out her words.

“I will be back, my love. I promise. Just rest and wait for me here.” She whispered as she gave the crystal one last loving caress. Then she whipped around in one swift decisive movement.

Her gaze fell to the man who was still on the ground. Klauz. All she wanted to do now was tear him apart into pieces and release all her anger upon him. But with the number of monsters that she had seen swarming in the abyss right now, she knew she needed this man alive. She also knew that no matter what she did to him now, even if she ends up killing him, none of it would ever return Gav to his previous state back to her. What had been done was already done and the only one who could free Gav was herself.

Without turning back to look at Gav even though every fibre of her being wanted to do so, she flew away from the amber crystal.

The moment she descended to the ground Evie struck Klauz without warning with her magic. Klauz, who had already been very much weakened due to his earlier fight against Gav, was sent tumbling to the ground. The impact was so strong that it created another crater on the ground that was already covered in holes.

Klauz coughed and pulled himself up into a sitting position. A deceptively thin but nonetheless powerful thread of light was wrapped around his neck. Evie had casted a binding chain. An unbreakable one. No one else could dispel this magic except for her – not even all of the light faes put together. Feeling the chain tightening closely around his neck but without choking him, Klauz lifted his gaze to the Light Queen.

“I really want to kill you right now, Klauz.” Evie told him without any inflection in her tone. Though her voice was calm, but her eyes were terrifyingly emotionless.

“And why is that?” Klauz asked, wiping the blood that was still dripping from his lips. “Because I caused his awakening?”

“Yes.” There was not even a tinge of hesitation in Evie’s answer. “You caused this tragedy. You ruined everything.”

A slight but angered smile tugged at Klauz’s lips. “You’re wrong!” he snapped. “This is bound to happen!”

“I’m wrong? If you didn’t kidnap me and falsely laid claim on me as your mate, Gav…” she sucked in a sharp breath, “… my husband would still be here with me right now. His awakening shouldn’t have happened now!”

He snorted and Evie backhanded him again, slamming him back into the ground, hard. “Don’t make me kill you, Klauz.” She threatened lowly. Her voice so unlike her, sharp and venomous.

“Light Queen,” he snarled. “Why don’t you understand? You are in love with the man you’re supposed to kill. He is your fated enemy. Did you realize what you had just done? You just made him even more formidable, indestructible. Once you free him, he would have grown more powerful than ever. By then, not even you would be able to kill him anymore!”

“And whose fault is that, huh? Klauz? I had other plans to stop this destruction from happening. But you came and ruined it all! Now you’re snarling at me like a dog?”

“You think this would not result in the same way if I didn’t kidnap you?! I kidnapped you for that same reason and yet… fuck! And yet the end result is the same!!”

“What the hell are you talking about?!” Evie snapped back at him, gripping his collar with both her hands. Why has he start talking like that? He was not making much sense.

Klauz’s jaws clenched hard before he drew a deep breath. “There’s another ancient carving I haven’t showed you. I found it in the destroyed house of the Icyrians. The Icyrians are just like you, they could see visions of what will happen in the future too. Do you know what I’ve found? The cause of the king of darkness’ awakening is the moment when the mating bond between the two of you is being triggered. The mating bond will cause his two sides to become one and once that happens, he will awaken.” Klauz finally revealed that final puzzle to why he had done that crazy thing in kidnapping and trying to force a mating between them.
