Chapter 47: A Protrea's Mark

"You're one of my protrea? And why do you call me princess?" Amaris asked.

Grakar tilted his head up but didn't stand up.

"You are the daughter of a demon prince, so you are technically a princess. I was chosen by your father to protect your anima." The minotaur answered.

Amaris couldn't believe him that easily. He came here because he was ordered to look for the hybrid. She couldn't just accept him like that.

"Here. This is proof of my loyalty to you and your father." Grakar said while showing him a mark on his arm.

The mark was a skull with a sword piercing through it. The sword was similar to the one on Zion's neck.

"That's my father's symbol." Amaris whispered.

"All of your five guardians had a mark given by your father or your mother. The mark would be similar to mine if it were imprinted by the demon prince. But if the moon goddess gave it, they will bear her mark." Grakar explained.

Sharaya became impatient and started to get furious. She suddenly flew towards Amaris. She was fast, but Grakar was faster than her. Before she got closer to Amaris, he swung the double-headed ax he held, hitting Sharaya's body.

The succubus was hit so hard that she was tossed against the wall and fell to the ground. The harpies got scared by the sudden turn of events. They didn't expect that Grakar would suddenly side with the hybrid.

As the harpies tried to escape, Zion used one of his powers, the water rapid strike. Zion's water element could create any weapon to perform precise, and swift stabs towards a moving target.

Amaris saw how the water formed into swords when Zion attacked the harpies. She looked at Zion, whose one eye turned to blue. His body was overflowing with powerful energy.

Only the Terran was left standing with all three badly injured on the floor. Sura stared at the Terran, who was obviously trembling from fear. He wondered why the Night Howlers brought a Terran into the Demon Clan's territory. 

"Why did you bring that Terran here? It didn't seem he was willing to enter Pandaemonium." Sura asked Grakar.

"An offering for you. You could devour that man's soul." The minotaur answered.

"No! No! Please! I beg of you!" The Terran screamed.

Sura didn't say a word, but he was already craving for the Terran's soul. He had never eaten one for almost twenty years.

The Terran kneeled on the floor and begged. His body was shaking from fear for his life. Amaris looked at him, trying to see if there was any sign of filth to the man's soul. But she could only smell the kindness in his heart.

"I will take him." She said in a firm voice while staring at Sura.

"And why would I agree with that?" Sura asked.

"Because Enid wouldn't want you to eat that man's soul." She answered.

Sura was caught off guard. He didn't expect an answer like that. He looked at Enid, who was innocently standing beside him. She looked at him and gave him a sweet smile. He sighed deeply and turned to Amaris.

"Fine! Take him with you!" He answered.

"How about them?" Zion asked, looking at their fallen enemy.

"I will keep them here and ask for more information. For now, take Amaris back to Verlice Castle. It seems they are already on the move, so I suggest looking for the remaining protrea." Sura responded.

Before leaving, Amaris talked to Sura about her other powers.

"If you inherited Phelan's powers, you might have Selene's as well. Try asking your Alpha about the goddess' powers so you could test yourself."

Amaris nodded and said her farewell to his uncle and Enid. Zion shifted to his wolf form as well as Cole and Xander. She used her wings to get to the Demon Clan's territory, but it was too dangerous to fly back home, so Zion would carry her on his back.

As Zion started to run, Amaris heard Enid shouting.

"I hope to see you again, Amaris!" She said while waving her hand.

Amaris didn't get the information she wanted. Sura promised to visit her in Verlice Castle a day after meeting with the Elysian Elders. He said he would bring Enid and tell her everything he knew about anima.

She agreed and was looking forward to their next meeting. Grakar came with them, along with the Terran. She didn't expect to find one of her protrea while venturing around Oprea.

'Love? Are you still mad at me?' Zion asked her using a mind link.

'What do you think? You didn't believe me. You chose to believe your friend instead of me.' She answered.

Amaris could feel Zion's guilt, but she was hurt and angry by how he acted.

'I'm sorry, Ari.' He simply said.

They arrived in Verlice Castle at dawn. Maxine and Zoila rushed into her when they saw her with Zion and the others.

"Oh, thank goodness you're safe!" Zoila exclaimed.

"Ari, please don't do that again. If you're mad at Zion, come to me, and I will listen to all your rantings. Just don't fly away like that again." Maxine scolded her.

She nodded then introduced the two new members of the Blue Moon Pack.

"This is Grakar, one of the five protrea. And this is, what's your name again?" She asked, looking at the Terran.

"My name is Dr.Adrian Lincoln." the man introduced himself.

Amaris frowned and looked at the man from head to toe. He didn't really look like a doctor. He's good-looking, but he was more like a nerd with his clothes.

"You're a doctor of what?" Zion asked.

"I'm a surgeon at Oprea National Hospital, but that succubus abducted me to treat one of the Night Howlers in Mirrikh. They promised to release me after the treatment, but it didn't happen." The doctor answered.

Amaris glanced at Zion. Now that they have taken the doctor, they can't let him return to work in the hospital. It would be dangerous for all of them.

"I'm sorry, Dr. Lincoln, but you can't return to the city for now. You must stay here." Amaris said.

The doctor understood. He wouldn't want to return to work either after what happened. The creatures in front of him looked like they cared more about other beings than those he worked with.

"How about him? How did you know he's a protrea?" Maxine asked, looking at Grakar.

Amaris remembered the mark Grakar told her. She looked at Maxine and raised the sleeves on her arms.

"What the hell are you doing, Ari?" Maxine asked, confused.

"Grakar said every protrea has a mark. Did you find anything in your body? Like a tattoo?" Amaris asked.

Maxine nodded, lifting her dress to her thighs. Amaris saw the men avert their eyes, especially Zion. Then she saw a mark on Maxine's left thigh.

"It's the Moon Goddess' mark; she chose you..'' It was Grakar who made the confirmation.
