Bryden didn’t expect to see Khaos was there, he thought it would take a few days before he finally arrived at Celeste kingdom, after all the travel from Three Deadly Ways to here would take days.
"Khaos...?" Bryden was ecstatic to see Khaos. He was thrilled to know how things had unfolded after the completion of the beauty blood.
He was curious to know what kind of power that Khaos was holding, but little did he know, he was going to find out and taste his power firsthand.
"How could you be here?" Bryden rushed toward Khaos.
The night was quiet, everyone had fallen asleep and only those warriors, who had duty to patrol the area, who would be seen in the distance.
However, Bryden’s excitement didn’t last for long, because suddenly, his body couldn’t move. He was not able to take a step forward, but then the numbness spread from his legs up to his waist and then his arms, to the point he couldn’t move at all.
Aside from his head, all of his body was not functioning.
"Kh- Khaos?" Bryden looked confused. Somehow, he knew it was Khaos, who had done this. Now, he was pretty close with the lycan, he could feel the rage that permeated in the air.
He shouldn’t be surprised to feel the wrath of the alpha, but somehow, he was pretty taken aback when Khaos moved closer toward him.
Now, they were in close proximity, he could see his red eyes and not only that, the way he moved... it almost looked like he didn’t even move his legs.
"What the meaning of this?" Bryden shivered. His whole body would be trembling if he could move, but unfortunately, he couldn’t...
Khaos said nothing, he simply moved closer toward Bryden. His red eyes shone brightly. They were the color of blood and Bryden could feel the fear that finally crept in.
"Khaos... I know you are angry for what happened to Zuri. But, can’t you see now? We have completed the beauty blood, we are a step closer to our goal." Bryden tried to make Khaos saw sense, but there was nothing he said, worked. "See the situation now, you need to be logical."
Khaos lost all of his logic when he thought he lost her. He was so close of losing her. Probably, he already lost her...
The only thing that kept him sane was the fact that the mate bond had not been severed, which meant she was still alive.
There was still hope.
And that was the same hope that tortured him. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
"Khaos, please..." Bryden begged him. His eyes widened when he saw the shadow behind Khaos moved, as if the shadow had mind on its own. "Khaos... what is that?"
Bryden only heard of how powerful the lycan after the completion of the beauty blood, but he didn’t know the detail of it.
"Khaos, the shadow..." He was dumbstruck when the shadow took a shape of a huge bat, with its wing spread so wide, it crept on the ground and the walls. "You... you are controlling the shadow?"
Khaos didn’t answer him, but the shadow then crept on Bryden’s body, it was very slow and Bryden could feel it. It was like a snake slithered on his skin.
"Khaos!" Bryden started to panic when the shadow crept on his chest, covered him with it, as if the darkness was going to devour him. "KHAOS!"
Khaos didn’t budge. He didn’t even flinch when Bryden’s eyes filled with horror, as he pleaded with him. Panic set it when the shadow reached his mouth and he couldn’t even make a sound and then it reached his nose, where he couldn’t breathe and then his eyes, which didn’t allow him to see...
And Bryden disappeared. He vanished in the shadow, leaving Khaos was alone there, standing in the hallway.
Khaos must have been deep in his thought, as he didn’t realize Rose had been watching the entire thing. She covered her mouth to prevent herself from making any sound.
She was terrified by what she just witnessed.
Did Khaos kill Bryden? There was no blood, there was no dead body, there was nothing. It was so clean. Bryden just vanished.
Her whole body was trembling in fear. She had never seen anything like this, not even the black magic user from the Terrence family could accomplish such thing.
Was this the real power of the lycan?
Khaos was... very powerful. What else he could do?
Rose gathered her courage and tried to take a peek from where she was standing, but when she looked at the hallway, it was already empty. Khaos was nowhere to be found...
