Chapter 118
Chapter 118
When Fiona woke up, she was in a rather dark room, and she barely saw anything. She couldn’t
remember what led to this point, but she knew something had happened. How was she here?
Where was Julian?
As his name crossed her mind, the memories ran back into her head. She sat up. He did something
that made her black out. He wanted her under control, and he knocked her
out. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
She ran out of bed and towards the door, which she made out despite her dim vision. She knocked
hard on it, as hard as she could, and she heard it echo. There was a hallway outside the door, and the
echo meant it was empty.
“Open the door. Is anybody out there?” She asked, struggling with the doorknob, but it was locked. She
hit the door over and over when she received no answer.
“Let me out of here! Let me out!” She picked up a steady heartbeat outside the door. It wasn’t very
far away. “Who is out there? Answer me.”
“Luna queen.”
“Who are you?”
“I am Kali. I am on the squadron guard team.”
“Where am I?” she asked, looking around and not recognising anything. This wasn’t a room in the
mansion; she would have known, and the sounds and echoes around were not so there.
“You are at the court of truth.” Kali answered calmly, adding, “The king believes the aura of truth and
light will protect you from being seen by the masters of the dark world. This is the safest place in our
world right now.”
“Let me out of here, Kali.”
“I am sorry, Luna Queen, but the Lycan King gave explicit instructions to keep you here. I have no other
choice but to do what he commands.” His apology and voice stayed low from the beginning to the end.
Her stomach turned in anger, and a growl left her mouth. “I am your Luna queen; you cannot keep me
here!” She slammed her hand against the door, but she got no response

from Kali, who had gone back to silence.
She placed her head against the door, and she slid down to the floor. How could Julian do this to her?
Once again, he had gone against her; he had shut her out. How could he do this?
She couldn’t stay here; she needed to get out. Her sons were gone, and she needed to get them back.
“I want water.” She said it with a faint voice as her head ached slightly. “I need water, Kali? Did you
hear me?”
“There is a mini fridge there in the room with you, Luna Queen.”
“I can’t see.” She said, looking around to find what he said.
“Reach for the light; the switch is above you. Once it is turned on, you will see.” He answered.
“I am hungry too. Is there food here for me to eat?” She demanded.
He stayed quiet for a few seconds before saying, “I will get you food.” He said that, and she heard
footsteps departing from the door.
She rose to her feet, reached for the light, and saw the room and the placement of things in it. She
made her way over to the fridge. The fridge was in the left corner of the room, and the window was in
the right corner, close to the bed.
She opened the fridge, and in it, she found a bottle of water. She reached for it and took a long gulp,
quenching her thirst and emptying the bottle.
She finished and set the cup down, giving herself time to think now that she had quenched her thirst.
Once again, she tried the door, but soon figured she couldn’t break it down. She needed to get out, and
she needed to capitalise on Kali’s return, since she couldn’t open the door on her own.
Twenty minutes later, there was a soft knock on the door: “Luna queen, I have the food you requested.
I will come in to set it down.” He announced this before inserting the key into the door.
Fiona moved to stand behind the door, wanting to use that to her advantage. The door opened, and
Kali stepped in, and he paused at the door, looking around but not finding her.
He stepped further into the room. “Luna queen.” He called, but before he could
calculate it, she charged out at him, swinging at him with all her strength. The plate fell out of his hand
and sca ttered onto the floor.
She used his surprise to her advantage, launched at him, and took him down. There was a surge in her
strength, and she needed to use that and her training with Julian to her advantage.
“I am sorry; I do not want to do this, but Julian gave me no choice.” She said and kicked him in the
face, knocking him out.
She took the key from his side and ran out of the room, making sure to lock the door with Kali in it.
She ran towards the entrance as fast as her speed could take her, and there she found Julian standing
there with a disapproving look on his face. Her heart doubled in its beat, knowing there was no way out.
She slowed down her speed and stopped not so far from him.
“All I asked was for you to trust me, and you cannot even do that.”
“I have trusted you, Julian; I gave you my abilities because I trusted you, and what did I get from it?”
she demanded. “You locked me up like a prisoner.”
“It is the only way to keep you safe. Can you not see that?”
Anger surged through her veins. “I do not see that. I do not need you to keep me safe. I can protect
myself and will do that if you step out of my way.”
“Now is the least time to fight each other, Fiona.” He said, stepping towards her.
“YOU LOCKED ME UP LIKE A COMMON CRIMINAL!” she roared at him.
“You were acting recklessly and without thinking things through. We already lost the boys; I will not lose
you as well! I needed to do what I did. I will do anything to keep you away from the claws of Doom.
Tonight is the full moon, and tonight is the night he comes for us all. I would rather watch the two worlds
burn than hand you over to him.”
“You will sacrifice our sons”
He didn’t answer her question; instead, he stepped towards her and took the keys from her hand,
saying, “You can return to your room, or I will take you back myself.”
“You wouldn’t dare touch me? She snarled at him, her eyes glowing with rage and frustration.

Without saying anything, he stepped up to her, picked her up on his shoulder, and carried her back to
her room. She kicked, screamed, and punched him over and over, but he didn’t budge.
He opened the door to the room she had run out of and then set her down inside. Then he reached
behind and pulled out a giga he seemed to have had all along. He hoped to subdue the power she had
gotten back with it.
“This has to be done.” He said and placed the giga around her neck, and she didn’t even try to stop
him.
“I hate you. I wish I never gave you my strength!” She said in a low tone.
“You do not mean a word you say, and in time you will realise I am doing the right thing.” He said, and
his voice remained calm even at this point.
Then he turned to Kali, who was now standing on his feet. “I will not be here to save her next time.
Keep her here and guard her with your very life.”
Kali bowed his head in understanding. “Yes, my king. I will do a better job.”
His eyes once again returned to Fiona, and they bore anguish in them and a hint of fear. He reached
out and touched the side of her face tenderly. “This night, I will do all I can to fight for you, protect our
world, and get back our sons, or I will die trying. This, I swear to you.”
A tear slid down her face as she watched him leave, knowing this would be the last time she would see
him.
