Reborn- His Scarlett Moon

” What are you doing here Sherizad? And why the hell are we dressed like those male guards? ”

Midnight had been standing on guard for hours at a stretch. It was now confirmed that there were infiltrators in all the packs. Some possessed by Helios’s dark minions and some voluntarily submitting to the new world order of darkness.

I needed to access my fathers secret study without arousing anymore suspense. Disguise was indispensable. Even Midnight didn’t need to know about the details that I had gathered.

” Take the lights out. I will stay here for the rest of the night. You lock the door behind yourself and come get me before dawn time. Make sure nobody suspects that I am not in my room. ”

She left obediently.

I needed to unlock the secret of the weapons that we were carrying.

The night went by quicker than I expected and soon O had to leave. I could only gather some bits and pieces and then I had to be present in front of my people as their queen.

Soon it was time.

Time for the promised sacrifice.

At that point, I was prepared to get killed. I was willing to die peacefully in Ryan’s arms so he got some more years to live. I had no idea at that point how fate would be playing out , aided by the whispers of the dark king.

I lead my troops head on this one. We had gathered enough antidote from the few scattered witches and wizards, to dismiss the haze that obstructed our vision.

This time it seemed like we had a fighting chance or it was probably because Helos had relaxed his leash.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

We fought and fought and then they began to gather around me, whispering.

I grabbed my dagger and walked straight up to Ryan.

” Sherizad? What happened? Are you… ”

But before he could say much, I lunged at him.

” Sherizad… What’s wrong? Wake up? ”

He yelled as he lodged one blow after another effectively. I thought I was in control but somehow it started feeling like something was possessing me.

” Shahrzad… Shirzad… ” He kept yelling my name.

” Get out of here now, if you want to live. ”

I bellowed as Beck and Josh joined him from behind. Both looked bewildered.

It was like I was possessed. I couldn’t do anything on my own accord. I had been telling myself that I had it all planned. I had it under control but I was wrong. It was all doomed. I couldn’t even talk anymore. My lips felt sealed. Seemed like I had only been a puppet.

I struggled as I saw my hands blow such a heavy blow that Ryan’s arms almost got slashed.

One swing after another, like a craftsman craft.

And then I saw my dagger aiming right at his chest.

I was fighting. Though I knew that the blade was meant for him, it was meant for me.

And then it happened. The thing that perhaps Helps could never have foreseen.

As soon as the blade turned direction, Tristan came right between myself and the dagger. His sword in his hand as our blood oozed out together.

The strings that were pulling me were gone.

I pushed Tristan as I pulled the dagger out. I grabbed the open end of his sword with my bare hand as he fell.

I saw time stop at that moment.

Everything was on pause, only I could move my head. Even the dust flying around in that battleground, seemed like it was waiting for someone’s approval.

I could see a spark, a fragment of light on each sword where my blood was dripping.

And then I saw him. My father.

” Baba… ”

I was about to let everything go and leap into his embrace but he nodded his head and pointed at me, asking me to stay in my place.

“We have no time now, my Sherizad. A tremendous force field is building. You only have a moment to decide how to channelise it. ” He said.

” But father. I don’t understand anything. ”

” You now can harness the forces of life and death. But it is only for this one moment and then everything will be gone. ”

The urgency was so intimidating that my brain wasn’t properly functioning. Only for a moment. Okay. So I closed my eyes. I could choose life for both me and Tristan, who didn’t even flinch in his injury to save me. But where would that leave Ryan and the rest of the werewolf clan. Helos would wipe us all away, all over again.

And in that moment I made that decision whose ripples I didn’t know at that moment.

I chose to obliterate Helos, without knowing that he had no soul for the grim reaper to take him. He was a living dead himself.

Helos made the force field bounce right back at me and that was his mistake.

He lost most, if not all of his powers in that attempt and I lost my life.

But in that moment when I was dying, I could see Ryan, Beck and Josh, gathered beside me. I tried desperately, my last attempt at saving them. I was successful, or so I thought. Little did I know that in my attempt to save Ryan and his boys, I accidentally obliterated his entire clan. Another catastrophic ripple effect.

As I closed my eyes with the satisfaction of knowing that I was able to save the one I loved so dearly, a smile crossed my face as he bent over me. His tears smeared my face and made my vision even more blurry.

As he sobbed like a child, while hugging me, his warmth made me feel cozy and his cry was like the tender lullaby that was putting me off to sleep like a child.

The only thing that made me sad or the only regret that I had in that moment was knowing the fact that it was probably the last time that I was seeing his face. The last time that I was touching him.
