Enchantress was vicious, ruthless with her words till then. Her dark eyes were scanning his each facial expression amusingly as if she was a sleeping lioness who was enjoying the nervousness of her descerned prey. Her paces were oddly torturous but never paused to approach his weak figure. Her ruthless eyes already glowing in advance victory as she recalled the main information that she received from Zave. Aaron had already lost half of his soul powers, so how could his powers compare to her?
She was a blessed witch and werewolf who was possesing powers from the dark creatures over the past few decades. She was confident with her powers and determination.
Moving towards his way beastly, Enchantress thought amusingly that whether she should kill off Aaron completely today or let him die till tomorrow midnight.
An evil smirk formed in her plumped lips when she noticed how fragile Aaron looked at that state.
Indeed Aaron was engrossed in his thoughts as he assumed numerous possibilities within short moment. Enchantress had gotten to know about his internal affairs too fast which clearly meant that there was an intruder from the royals. If the news of his weaknesses started leaking outside just like this, his whole family would be in danger as they had more enemies than admirers.
Aaron quickly snapped out from his thoughts when he felt the presence of Enchantress's evil aura coming closer on his way. He frowned his eyes harshly as his gaze fell on the mysterious woman circulating around him.
After sucking a nervous breathing, Aaron asked coldly,
" What do you want exactly? Spill it out and leave the place."
Enchantress paused midway at her encircling and giggled like a manica. After cracking into a sinister laughter, she blurted out sarcastically,
" Mmm..I thought that you have already figured it out? Why did you brain working so slow, nephew?"
Aaron gritted his teeth harder as her address of calling him "nephew" had only reminded him the terrible past that his mother encountered. Sneering coldly, Aaron spoke between his gritted teeth,
" I am not your nephew. Don't ever call my mother as your sister. You are no match to her."
Enchantress narrowed her eyes dangerously. Aaron had accidentally spitted out something that he shouldn't had mentioned in this crucial moment. All this time, Enchantress only hated to hear her comparing with Aaron's mother because she was too proud of herself esteem. She only believed that no one could be matched to her status in this whole world. Thus her rage enroused like a burning lava inside her veins.
Her dark eyes trembled in anger before an enraged growl came out from her tongue throatily,
" Aaron Richards! How dare you compare me with that bitch woman? If she was saint according to your comment, why did she betray the entire werwolves clan after getting married with your father? She was just a humiliation for us. Don't ever compare her status with a high-class lady like me or others."
Aaron's breathing hitched as he struggled hard to control his fury. Clenching his fists together, he managed to spit out hoarsely,
" She wasn't a humiliated! She..she just fell in love and found happiness with my father. But you brought shame on your own clan after killing your own sister. Shame on you! "
Enchantress shouted hysterically,
" Shut up! I dare you to insult me again! I swear, you will receive severe consequences than I prepared for you."
Aaron laughed bitterly as his red eyes watched the woman proudly,
" Did you think that I have expected to return alive?"
Enchantress frowned and heard him resuming mysteriously,
" I can't kill or defeat you probably. But I will definitely make sure that no one else can be harmed by you, Enchantress. Your time has come to an end."
Aaron stated dangerously as his eyes inspected the woman in front of him. Without expecting any reply from her, he used all of his strength to cast the spell on her chest rapidly. A ball of lava quickly slipped out from his palms before falling on the woman's chest hardly.
Being distracted, Enchantress had to endure the blow that quickly pushed her few steps back in pain. She jolted clutching her chest in pain and looked up at Aaron disbelievingly. After a moment of silence, she laughed suddenly and praised while rubbing the spot on her chest gently,
" I thought that you will be powerless coward. Who knew that half of your powers can be so useful? It seems like you aren't completely useless brat."
Aaron furrowed at her blatant words and tried to predict her next steps of attack. Although defeat was written in his fate, he could never bow down his head in front of an evil even if he was on the verge of death. It was his especial personality that gave him the utmost powers of being the king of all Vampires around the world.
Enchantress hated his confidence as he stood with all might ahead of her even though his powers were demolished. As if his confidence had added fuel in her rage, Enchantress suddenly erupted out like a burning volcano.
She groaned enragingly and used her own dark powers instantly. After summoning the black balls in her fist, she aimed it at Aaron before he could fight back against her force.
Aaron gasped in pain before flying up in the air and banged his body against the giant tree behind him. His whole body fell down over the ground as he kept laying on his back.
Enchantress sneered coldly and without wasting a rare moment, she instantly casted another spell before he could fight back. This time, Aaron felt a huge force on his back that caused him twisting over the ground pathetically.
His limbs shuddered at the extreme pain as if someone had breaking his backbone with dagger invisibly. His body suddered in pain and he could feel his power lessening after receiving this bowl. Even though a few powers of spell left in his body, he had no more strength to fight back against Enchantress skillfully.
Enchantress laughed with glory as she looked down at his fallen figure proudly. Her lips quirked up dangerously as she started taking beasty steps on his way slowly.
Meanwhile, the magnificent moonshine castle was oddly quite and stiff as the staffs had taken their places inside their own respective rooms in fear of Enchantress. After the engagement ceremony was interrupted badly, they didn't wander outside anymore. Morever Esme's imprisonment had caused a great commotion among the civilians.
Adjusting her whirlwind emotions, Esme had finally reached downstairs robotically and made her way directly outside of the castle without informing anyone. Vanessa and Queen Mother were so happy with the outcome that they had started making their own plans earnestly and didn't pay attention outside.
Only Siemus and Athena were left who seemed genuinely concerned for Esme's emotions. After watching her heading outside, they quickly trailed her off closely. Athena called her out impatiently,
" Sister-in-law, where are you going? Please don't take decisions repulsively and wait for my brother's arrival. He must have his own explainations. Don't believe everything that the old lord said, Please."
Athena tried to coax Esme while following her outside and didn't know how to console her emotions at this moment. Esme didn't answer back instantly. Her face was deadly pale like a field without any green as she headed outside like a puppet.
After hearing out Athena's reasons, her pace slightly halted as she turned around to face Athena. Meeting Esme's emotionless appearance, Athena had lost of her words and couldn't find any suitable reasons to hold her back.
Pursuing her lips together, Esme smiled bitterly and said,
" The person that I believed is dead inside me, Athena. All I want is to repay his kindness."
She stated her last words and turned around to leave. Athena face turned pale as she blurted out anxiously,
" Where.. where are you going?"
Esme answered briefly as her blue eyes glowed dangerously,
" The border! I have to settle every score."
Athena and Siemus exchanged meaningful glances and both spoke in unison,
" We will accompany you."
Esme didn't deny instead replied with different meaning,
" It would have been best if you had accompanied my brother at this time. By the way, I managed to hear out your last words of denial."
Athena sawlloed hard and lowered her gaze down guiltily. After pondering for a while, she murmured tugging Siemus to leave,
" Let's head for the border first. I wish that brother is safe and can give a judgmental explaination to sister-in-law."
