A Mysterious She-wolf novel Chapter 58

Kavi's POV

"How did the people heal when they were wounded by bright ash liquid last time?"

Aadhira stared at me with wide eyes. I blinked and realized she was shocked to talk about past all of sudden.

"Aadhira, I got Layla's memory. Now tell me what happened last time when I teleported them here?"

My voice raised and she flinched and bowed her head down.

"We couldn't save them, Goddess. The people struggled to heal the wound but the venom had spread eventually and one by one, they died. Their body and soul had disappeared into dust."

My heart skipped a beat to know my people had died. I was so irresponsible. So, Aadhira didn't know the solution for this.

Why this has to happen to me?

I could understand I was Layla, the Goddess of darkness in my previous birth. But I killed myself not wanting to live anymore. There is still a missing part in my story that why I was reborn. My creator can only answer that. But I don't have time to that. I have to save Maayan. My Maayan!

I could feel all his pain and his never died hope to see me again. The past had enlightened his love for me; also his innocence. We both were fallen for the trap set in the name 'Love'. Maybe that love is what forced me to born again and brought us together. But why destiny was taking him away from me before even I could embrace anything. Maayan knew that this was bright ashes still he consumed them to bring my power and memories back.

Wait! A Yaazhi had given him the bright ashes. Yaazhi-s weren't existent in the earth. I could name only one person who was so fond of creatures and has a huge sanctuary for them.

"Goddess, Sun God had been waiting outside our realm and he was demanding to meet you!"

A Guard informed me interrupting my thoughts.

Speak of the devil! The darkness flared outside my skin symbolizing my blood was boiling inside.

"Let him wait there!"

I commanded him.

I want to rip apart everyone deceived me in the past. My wolf might be silent but I have the same aggression in me. But the faint heartbeat of the man in my hand was my first preference. I closed my eyes and let my mind think of a solution.

Jasmine! (A witch)

She was good at making healing potions. She has her house at the border of Blood warriors and Vijayan had set up a herbal tonics shop for her there. She was a good witch and she is the only person I could trust. I freed myself from Maayan's hold promising him to come back soon. I teleported to her house and found her playing with her son. She sensed some presence and turned sharply with the wand in her hand.

"Calm down, Jas. I need your help now. I want you to come with me."

She looked confused to see me but she understood the emergency from my voice and nodded her head.

"Have you ever teleported?"

I questioned her urgently as I don't have time to wait until her awake.

"Yes. A few times…"

I didn't wait to complete the sentence and teleported instantly to my room along with her son.

"Don't ask me anything now, Jas. He had consumed two vials of bright ashes. His heartbeat was getting low. Do something. I can't afford to lose him."

Her eyes widened at my panicked voice.

"Bright ash is the most powerful venom used to kill vampires!

…

It was very so rare venom. There was no antidote found to that. But I was taught to slow down its effects. I need some quartz, clear coal and some medicinal herbs. Close the curtain of this room and keep the room as dark as possible. Darkness always reduced the effects of the venom."

I used my powers to bring the thing she asked outside the room. She looked at them in wonder and I let my darkness guard his room. I could see everything very clear in darkness and I know it wasn't my wolf power.

"Ask anything you want and do anything to keep him alive. He is the most important person in my life…"

Jasmine held my hand reassuringly and I could tell she understood who I am on seeing all these.

"You might be the one whom everyone fears of the evilness in your possession. But for me, you are a great person who saved my son's life. I will do everything I could. Trust me."

She spoke calmly and went to the counter where the things she asked were.

I walked closer to Maayan and held his hand in mine and whispered him not to leave me. I hugged him and laid next to him. Jasmine made a potion and made me feed him that. I could feel his heartbeat was gaining strength but it wasn't completely normal and he was still unconscious.

I felt a presence behind me and Aadhira looked at me with conflicted emotion on her face.

"What?"

I barked and felt frustrated at my behaviour. I should be very grateful to her for taking care of my realm all these years. But here I am shouting at her. Still, she bowed her head and spoke to me.

"Sun God is still waiting for you, Goddess."

I frowned as I completely forgot about making him wait.

Why was he so persistent in meeting me? After all, he was the one who cursed my man thinking I wouldn't come back and also he had sent a Yaazhi to poison him. I got up from the bed with a fury.

"Bring him to the Meeting chamber, Aadhira. Let's see what he wants with this weak-hearted woman now."

She nodded with a frown not understanding the meaning.

I turned towards Maayan. He was looking like he was in deep sleep but the pale face with the bags under his eyes remind me of his state of sickness. I want to be with him. But I should see if I could get the information of antidote from Aadhavan.

I teleported to Meeting Chamber and waited for him to come there. He dares to visit me after all the cruel thing he had done to us. I closed my eyes to calm myself. The scent of flame reached my nostrils and I opened my eyes to see the man who was in memory. He looked the same, unlike Chandran who had silver hairs now. But Aadhavan eyes had a void. He was speaking to Aadhira with a smile who was replying to him curtly. His face snapped towards my direction and his eyes lit up and tears pooled there. My heart was instantly conflicted whether he was really Aadhavan, the Sun God who had been like a stone back then.

"Layla!"

He uttered my name with quivering lips. He was like a lost baby seeing his mother after a long time which was doing something to my heart.

"Kavithanjali."

I corrected him.

He smiled and blinked his eyes letting the tears fall and a small flame lit up there but it went off within a second. He approached me but I could sense the difference in his majestic walking stance. He looks like he was tired – of what? I don't know yet!
