Chapter 142
Nesa gritted her teeth from her own pain. She’d never imagined having this kind of situation. The woman was getting stubborn and it would cost their lives.
"lisca, let’s go!" She held the woman by the waist to pull her up from the ground so they could start moving.
"No!" She was about to push Nesa away, but Carn got her by the arm.
"Don’t be stupid, Lorwey!" Carn wanted to smack lisca’s head by the end of the gun, but that would be more weight for them to carry. Nesa was already staggering on her wounded leg, and she didn’t know if the woman would last longer to carry her own. And they had a semi-unconscious prince to carry also.
"Calicia or lisca, whatever you are called, if you don’t co to us, your parents would be dead the sa as that traitor that you were crying over there." General Giordano announced.
The three won who were struggling to keep each other alive went still for a second. As well as the chaos seed to pause too.
Then, as if a play button was hit again, everything resud.
"No! Let go of !" lisca was thrashing in their hands. She was kicking and elbowing them to be released from their vise-like grip. Nesa was at her waist while Carn was at her arm.
Carn didn’t want to do it, but at the sa ti, she was really willing to do so. She punched lisca in the gut. That had the woman gasp and stopped for a minute as she doubled from the pain. Nesa’s eyes bulged in shock, but she recovered quickly and took the mont of lisca’s weakening limbs to drag her to where the prince was.
"No." There were tears in lisca’s eyes as she looked past at the committee mbers and tried to see her parents faces. She raised an arm, wanting to reach for them.
Calicia shook her head to her daughter. There was nothing they could do. She’d willingly die and kill herself than let them have her. She had finally seen her again after almost two decades. She had grown up so beautifully and strong. A fighter. She was proud of it. She’d seen how she fought earlier. And it was enough seeing her for the last ti even at a distance. She’d wanted to hold her, but the situation wouldn’t allow it.
Cabril just stared at his precious girl. Tears blurred his eyes. He wanted to protect her instead of being protected. And he’d willingly die again if it was the last thing he had to do for the hunters not to have her.
"Mom! Dad!" lisca roared. Her eyes were blurred by the tears. They were just up ahead. She could hold them again. She could be with them again. But it seed like they were worlds apart. The hunters had taken them away from her for the second ti in the second chance she got to save them. "Mom... Dad..." She could only call out for them.
Carn created a vortex, and Nesa got in imdiately, pulling lisca with all her might, and Carn pushed her inside too.
"NO!" lisca roared with her arm stretched out as if reaching for them. Then her eyes found the eyes of the general and the committee mbers in a line beside him. "I would kill you! All of you!" Her eyes glowed yellow for all the rage that she felt, but it was only for a second before a pang of pain erupted in her head. That made her shut up, and her knees buckled, but Nesa was still holding her. She was sohow glad that the woman still had the strength for them.
"Give her to us!" Giordano stepped forward along with the hunters, and they closed in on them. "Your parents would be dead by the end of the day, Calicia!"
It was the last thing lisca heard as the hollow sucked them in, and everything in front of her was gone. The noise died too, and for a mont, all she could see was total blackness.
Carn threw the gun away and crouched down. She got the prince’s arm, and she hissed as she touched his skin. His body was burning. She helped him up. They almost toppled over at how heavy he was, but she pushed another power in herself for the strength to support him. And the energy in her was draining too quickly as the vortex blinked to evaporate.
She stepped inside the hollow with the prince slumped beside her. She looked at the scene before her and to the hunters that was pointing at them. Then blackness took over her vision as the vortex teleported them to a cave where soone was waiting. And she knew just how totally screwed she was.
Not more than a minute, lisca and Nesa stumbled on a ground. The other wolf let go of her waist. Nesa walked over to the nearest wall and let herself fall on the floor, grunting from pain and everything. Sweat trickled down her face as strands of hair had stuck to her sticky skin. She pressed a hand to her wound to stop the blood from gushing out.
Nesa noticed soone in front of them, but she didn’t care anymore. She just wanted to rest from all the actions they did. And the woman was familiar. She looked at lisca. She knew the hybrid could take care of the woman standing quite a distance before them.
lisca was still standing in a daze, eyes wide in shock. Her jaw was quivering as her fists were closed tightly in pure rage. She was clouded by different emotions that she hadn’t noticed Carn and the prince appeared behind her. And soone was approaching them.
Carn lay the prince down at the other side of the cave. Then as if on cue, she staggered beside him. Nearly laying on top of his body but she maneuvered herself to the side. Her muscles felt like lting and she cough up blood as her chest hurt.
Her vision was turning blurry but she raised her gaze to Zavien. His eyes were closed and his breathing was even. His body wasn’t burning too much anymore. She clutched a hand to her chest. Her own beating organ seed wanted to burst out from her skin. She breathed through her mouth to continue filling her lungs with oxygen because she was running out of it.
"Where are they?"
Just then lisca raised her head as a familiar voice asked. It was laced with a hard, expecting tone. Her eyes narrowed into slits as she recognized who was the owner of the voice. It was no other than Tyla.
