Chapter 614: Shadows

Chapter 614: Shadows

A while ago…

Just a moment later after Gav left the room, Evie’s eyes flew wide open as if a nightmare jolted her awake. She rose from the bed in an instant. The sleep that had been still gripping her hard a little while ago was now gone completely.

She could feel it. Danger and something peculiar and dark was now present inside this room.

“Show yourself.” Evie was still calm as she slowly climbed off the bed, alert and ready for any sudden attacks on her now. Her body had already started glowing since the first instance she opened her eyes. She had taken no chances and had put up a light defence shield around her. “Show yourself up, coward. Stop hiding.”

Silence. No one responded to Evie’s taunt, but she still could feel something moving around her. It did not feel like Gav’s darkness, however. This one seemed to be more like a shadow instead of the smoke-like wisps Gav and the other powerful dark faes, including that villain Galleous, were emanating.

This magic… Evie was certain that she had never encountered anything like this before. She felt that this was much more troublesome and dangerous as it was harder to detect or even sense it out. Usually, she would be able to pinpoint to a certain spot where the magic was coming from, but this was completely different. She could only vaguely sense that there was a dark presence within the immediate place she was in. But try as she might, she could not sense the exact place where this presence was at.

The shadow-like presence seemed to be all over the place, and she did not have any idea where to aim even if she was ready to attack. Thus, she could only focus her power on defending herself for now, unless whatever this was finally materialized and appeared before her.

Just as her magic was about to glow brighter, she then felt the shadows began to move and gathered over in one place.

She looked towards the door. Anticipating what or who was it this time.

A dark silhouette was forming now. Someone tall.

Evie prepared herself. She could feel immense danger from whoever this was. It had been quite a long while since she had felt such an intense and real danger from someone since the fight with Galleous. Gav, the King and Gideon, all possessed dangerous powers themselves, but Evie had never felt any danger radiating from them. So, this creature would be the first to have given her such a fear inducing shiver in a while since she arrived in the Under Lands.

She had not been expecting any other enemies aside from the monsters from the Abyss of Darkness and that was why all her focus was solely fixed on it as she thought it was pretty pointless for any minor enemy to appear at this point. But right now, she felt that she was wrong. No one should be able to make her feel like this aside from a notorious enemy.

The shadow finally materialized fully in her room. Based off his tall and broad features, Evie was certain he was a man despite him being fully covered by a dark cloak from head to toe.

“Who are you?” she asked.

“I came to take you…” a deep voice, textured with gravel wrapped with obsidian silk echoed inside the room, “…Light Queen.”

Evie’s eyes widened. That voice. She had heard it before… Klauz!!

He pulled his hood down and that familiar sharp and elegant face came into view. It was really him! Though she had only seen his face clearly twice during the entire duration of her vision, she would never have mistaken those catlike eyes and that image of him looking like some menacingly cruel, yet beautiful man created from the darkest of shadows with anyone else. His look was just too striking and unique to forget.

Finally! At long last! Evie could not help but utter those words in her mind. She could not believe that this man she was having so many troubles in trying to find, had now suddenly appeared right before her even without her trying anything now!

But before Evie could say anything to him, he was already suddenly standing behind her. What felt like a sharp hand blade was pointed not at her throat but her belly.

She froze for a moment.

“I never thought you’d drop your guard down like this, Light Queen.” He whispered behind her.

“Klauz.” Evie’s voice remained calm despite the fear and swift anger that had immediately blasted within her. If he had pointed the blade right at her throat, she would not have felt this scared and murderously angry that she could feel herself tremble. She realized that this man knew many things about her already.

“Another surprise.” He replied. “I never thought that you would actually know me.” A hint of wonder and disbelief coated his dark voice.

“Put that blade down. Now!!” A razor-sharp command filled with the threats and promises of death in various ways came from Evie’s lips.

“This one’s not a surprise. I knew this weakness of yours. I’ve watched how that stupid Prince had managed to trick you so easily.” He commented, voice full of scorn.

“I said drop that –”

“Hush now, Light Queen. You’re not in the position to order me around right now. Drop the magic preventing me from teleporting you now or else –”

“You wouldn’t dare, Klauz.” Evie warned in a low voice.

“Why wouldn’t I?”

“I am not your enemy.”

He fell silent for a moment. But she felt that the tip of his blade had now pierced her dress and was now resting slightly against her skin. Fear gripped her heart uncontrollably. The thought of her child getting hurt dissolved all reason, courage and resolve in an instant. She could not endanger her child no matter what.

The moment she released the magic, Klauz touched her bare arm. “You’re right. You are not my enemy… you are my mate, and I am yours.” He whispered as they both disappeared from the room.
