Chapter 443: The Wrong Scale

**************

Chapter 443

~Zara’s POV~

I took the scale.

"You won’t change your mind?" he asked in a low voice.

"No. I won’t."

"Very well then. Please hand over the scale."

"What?" I reacted before I could stop myself. "Why?"

"Because..." My eyes flashed red.

He couldn’t cheat me on this. Not after everything, after I had gotten so close to reviving Snow.

"You will have to beat me first before youc an take that scale away from me."

Davion sighed, dropping his hand. "Take that to now and be sure of it. I promise you he will meet his end faster than you can say my name."

My gaze darted around. I wondered how I could run away from ehre with that scale and Kaid without bringing upon the wrath of the dragons.

"Zara... believe me."

I narrowed my eyes and took a step back. Davion sighed once more. "I am being sincere."

"How and why should I believe you?"

"If you were smart, you would not."

"See?" I refuted.

"Okay, that backfired, but do you think I believed you would win easily? I hoped not to be honest. I am talking about my scales. My power source. Taking it is going to be detrimental. Besides, a relic of such nature wouldn’t be plucked easily. From where, in my hair?"

I resisted the urge to laugh and looked him straight in the eye to see if he was lying. I found my answer almost immediately but I needed more.

"So... now what?"

"Please hand over the fake."

"Wait, were you testing me or is this just gonna be a lie?"

"Yes, I tested you," Davion stated plainly. "And my reasons remain the same. To give you that which is my prized possession, I have to trust and test you."

"Then will you give me the true scale?"

"I will. However, I will have to transform to get the scale, but in the meantime, you will get that much-needed rest. You are in no shape to leave here."

"I can."

"Can you? Well, I insist on a mini feast between me, you and the Lycan as a sign of good blood between us. Then I can hand over my scale to you before you leave."

I tried to speak and explain, but he held his palm, silencing me. "See you in an hour. Your attendants shall prepare you."

With that, Davion turned and left, ignoring me.

I turned without a word. _{freewebnσvel.cѳm}

Kaid was waiting at the bottom of the stairs, wide-eyed. "You okay?"

"No," I said.

"You sure? What happened up there?"
