The Tripartite Mate Bond Chapter 66: CHAPTER SIXTY-SIX

I wasn't an expert on witchcraft or anything but I was sure they were performing a sort of binding spell between me and the dragon.

They had nicked my marks, all four of them and taken blood from there and I couldn't even resist because they had tied me up and the ropes were so tight, I could feel my skin breaking.

I kept trying to light the fire I had in me but I was getting weaker and Scarlett was making everywhere ice cold.

It was a total disaster.

I had sent Flynn a message when I realized what Kane was doing and I guess where he was coming from was a world away as this ritual had been going on for about thirty minutes and there was no sign of him. I wish I had called him instead but he had strict rules against that. Maybe it was about the whole secret Dragon Kingdom thing but I respected his decision. But now, i deeply regretted it because what if he saw tge message after I'd become a slave to this crazy dragon and he drags Lyra into this too?

I tried talking them out of this but the girl got irritated about ten minutes ago and put cloth in my mouth to shut me up.

But then, I remembered something.

My pearl!

Kane said I could fill it up with energy and for the last few weeks, I've been doing just that. Every little inconvenience had me imbuing the pearl with my essence and an idea, a crazy one, occured to me.

I could place the pearl in our midst, because we were placed side by side, leaving a spot right in the middle at our backs.

I could use my last drop of strength to get it activated and once my mates were awake, they would be able to do something.

The only problem was the salt circle they had drawn around us and the effects of using the last energy I had was me going right back in limbo.

The thought terrified me but I had very small options and hopefully, Bez has moved on and gotten over his obsession with me.

But I decided that was a later problem, for now, I would risk it. I didn't have any other option.

I slowly removed it from my arm, which was a tedious task, considering I was tied up but I did it.

I then placed it right in the middle and I tapped it three times like Kane taught me.

But the most important part was sending my energy into it, it was like a password of some sort, as only I could activate it.

While this happened, the dragon and her rider were nearly done, I could see her turn to the last page of the book she was reading out incantation from and I knew I couldn't waste a single moment again.

So I sent all my strength and energy into the pearl, making it begin to glow gradually and my consciousness began to fade. I couldn't help the tear that dropped from my eyes at the future I was about to face. I had left the Nether region like a thief in the night, and I knew Bez wasn't going to welcome me with open arms. In fact, I had begged Lyra to do a little damage to the mansion that imprisoned women, making them do all sort of debasing acts. But then, what choice did I have? No help was coming and I wasn't going to sit here when something could be done.

As tye last drops of my power activated the pearl, I heard the girl exclaim, "shit! something is wrong, Scar"

But before I succumbed to the darkness, I heard someone scream.

“Aurora, Noooo!!” before my world went black.

***

“Long time, no see Princess” I heard and I knew it could only be my worst nightmare after my foster father, Bez; and he didn't sound happy at all.

I opened my eyes and I saw his anger-stricken face stare imaginary holes into my head.

I was floating in what seemed like endless space and each time I faced Bez, he looked angrier than before.

“Um, hi?” I greeted, trying to find to stop myself from floating but I wasn't in control at all.

“You escaped from me before and I realized, you were not even worth all the trouble you put me through. In fact, I found a more pleasing woman who is ready to rule beside me” he told me and then he raised his hand, putting my spinning misery to a stop.

“I apologize for not being so agreeable. I told you I already have mates and I didn't even get a say in that either but I love them and I don't want anyone else. Please send me back?” I begged, hoping for a miracle that didn't seem like it was going to happen.

He smiled cruelly.

“Send you back? Now, why would I do that? After all, your so called mate was the one that delivered you into this situation for his selfish gains. I don't see why you should go back there”

Oh no.

“But that wasn't him. Something controlled his actions” I argued, hoping against everything that he doesn't go through with what I felt he had in mind.

“Don't be an idiot, Aurora. The witch deals with desire. That's how she gets people. Sue exploits their weaknesses and promises them what they could have only imagined and your precious mate gave you up for a silly reason. He even dreamt of controlling you and two dragons. Like I said, there's no need for you down there or here” he stated, folding his arms.

“But wait, I have two other mates and they don't deserve to suffer for Kane’s mistakes. What about them?”

“They have dealt with the loss of a mate before, they will deal with it again and survive”

“Please, don't do this, I beg of you!” I pleaded, struggling to hold back tears.

“And my answer is no! You feel so entitled and I guess it's my fault for making you feel so special. You are not worth all the stress and I'm going to save everyone the headache by sending you to hell!” He shouted, a deep sense of fear enveloping me.
