Rejected By My Mate novel Chapter 44

Demonise's POV

Alex and the other spirits are trying to fight me, but I will not let them defeat me. I am Demonise and no one can defeat me! So, I instantly came up with a plan and that is the kid’s powers. This witch-wizard kid is stronger than I thought. All I need is to awaken the wizard’s power. Luke has augmentation magic, and his powers will enhance my abilities and energy—especially the four beasts inside me that became a tattoo. Their soul is now mine and they will obey everything I command. Alex and the others had no idea why the beast they fought a few days ago became a tattoo. It was me who took their soul.

Now, with the help of Luke’s power, I can summon all the souls I collected at once. Bwahahaha.

“Alex, where are we?” the little boy asked while scanning the whole forest filled with snow. Maybe he’s wondering why we are out there. As much as I hate the snow that is constantly pouring in me, I have no choice but to be patient.

“The place you have never been to before,” I replied and shrugged my shoulders. He stopped walking and looked at me with a big smile.

“Are we playing hide and seek? And mommy and daddy will find us?” he blabbers. Ugh, I hate kids. Relax, Demonise! You have to play nice!

I fake a smile at the little boy, “Yes! So, remain quiet, okay? They’ll easily find us if you’re so noisy.” I said.

“Oh…” he nodded and walked quietly this time while scanning the place.

I stopped walking when I heard a lot of footsteps from afar. A grin plastered on my lips, I quickly ordered Luke to stop walking. He looked at me with a frown.

“Do you want to climb on the trees?” I asked while grinning. His eyes widened and pointed out the huge tree, then said ecstatically, “Up there?!” I nodded.

“Yes! Yes! Awesome!” he said excitedly while jumping. I quickly held him and flew towards the huge tree that was covered with a lot of big leaves. I put Luke on the branches and take a look downwards where I heard the footsteps.

As soon as my gaze lingered on the thousands of warriors, my lips twitched. However, Luke had a look of awe while staring at the battalion that was marching to the north. “That was a lot of people!” Luke mumbled in surprise. I shushed him and he suddenly closed his mouth, using his hand. Good boy.

While Luke is distracted by the sea of warriors, I controlled his body and mind. Then he fell asleep in my arms. I held the tiny body of Luke and slowly put him down on the huge branch of the tree. Using my ability, I chanted a spell to awaken Luke’s power, but it will take time to awaken Luke’s power.

‘Demonise, what are you going to do to Luke?!’ The girls in my head keep blabbering and I have to block them out.

An hour later, my breathing became ragged and beads of perspiration were forming on my forehead even if it is so cold. I concentrated and chanted the spell repeatedly. The energy envelopes us and the wind blows furiously and howling creepily.

I could feel Alex and the others trying to stop what I’m doing, but they are too late because hours from now, Luke’s power would be awakened. And I can’t wait to enhance my abilities. I doubt they can defeat me. Bwahahaha.

Soon, all the souls will be mine and that grim reaper couldn’t do anything. But an idea popped up in my head. I grinned mischievously. I could make use of the grim reapers to execute my plans successfully. Hahaha.

Sabrina's POV

While waiting for the enemies to cross this mountain, we talked about the plan and revised some moves that I think would fail. The five of us became silent when we felt strong energy. It was so powerful. I tried to locate where it was, but I couldn’t track the strong aura because someone blocked me.

“Something is happening,” Clinton mumbled.

“Do you think it’s from our enemy?” Allia said.

“I don’t know.” Sighing, I shot up from the rock and walked towards the cliff. I spotted the enemies from afar, but the strong energy I felt wasn’t from that direction. It’s coming from another direction but I couldn’t pinpoint where. Was it the beast? My heart was pounding at the thought. I hope she didn’t do anything to Luke.

Now we’re stuck, whether to wait for our enemies to cross this mountain or find the owner of the strong energy. But we also need to hurry to save Luke. I go back from the group. And they are all silent. Allia saw me and she smiled faintly.

“Do you think Luke is okay?” Allia mumbled, on the verge of crying again. I sighed and sat next to her.

“He’ll be fine, Alli,” I said and gave her a reassuring smile.

“It’s the first time my baby got away from me for too long. I won’t forgive myself if something happened to him,” she said, and a lone tear rolled down on her face. I sighed and engulfed her in a hug while tapping her back.

“He’ll be okay. I know Alex will not let the beast do anything bad to Luke. Everything will be alright soon, Alli.” I whispered to her. I felt her nod and muffled a cry. I’m not used to seeing Allia cry.

We must find Luke soon or else Allia will go crazy because of anxiousness.

Third Person's POV

Wizards, witches, demons, vampires, and werewolves are marching through the deserted snow going to the first mountain. It’s odd to see all of them in unity, but at the back of their mind, they are still enemies. After they will kill the chosen one, for sure they will be back again as enemies. Because enemies should stay enemies and enemies will never be an ally forever. All of them are traitors, anyway. In the end, all of them will kill each other.

However, some warriors are afraid of the possibility of dying. This is a war and the moment they agreed, their life was already put on edge and too much risk. There’s only a fifty-fifty chance of survival, and yet they still took the risk. Well, in the first place, they don’t have a choice because it was an order from their King. Their fears only doubled when they noticed a lot of grim reapers that were following them, who couldn’t wait to take their soul.

But, some warriors are not afraid, they were excited about the war because of only one reason—to kill. They were itching to kill their enemies and wanted to see blood scattered on the ground. The vampires are excited too because of the blood. Whenever someone mentions blood, their eyes will become darkened. They didn’t drink enough blood to prepare for the war because for sure, they could drink a lot of blood from their enemies so soon.

Lo-and-behold, werewolves remain quiet. They’re thinking about the plan and feel anxious about it. Whereas Liza is not in the mood while walking and her eyebrows furrowed together. She couldn’t believe that Azrael kept a secret from her. She couldn’t accept that Alexandria is Azrael’s mate. Liza will not give up on Azrael and she will do everything in her power to get Azrael away from Alexandria. She remembers what happened in the room when Alexandria beat her and it looks like the two were fighting. But her face darkened as she remembers the beatings she received. She will make sure to get back to Alexandria. She will kill the girl in her hands. She despised the girl, even when they were little. That omega has no right to hurt her.

Meanwhile, Azrael was thinking deeply. He relives his memories when he was a kid, together with his mother and father. Suddenly, a vivid memory of him and a little girl popped up on his head. The little girl is around 5 years old and he was 9 years old. He couldn’t believe he forgot about his childhood sweetheart. Is he too late?
