Chapter 451 On My Throne
“Mom! Don’t speak to him or argue with him until I am there, okay?” I told her in a worried tone, feeling my heart skipping beats
inside my chest.
Akin frowned, whispering to me and asking me what had happened. “Okay, but it will take you time to come here. Why don’t you
use Ace’s powers to come over?” she suggested, and I liked the idea.
“I will do that,” I said, and I hung up to get ready for the next mission. I could tell from my mother’s desperation that she was
scared of Zane.
Once I had ended the call with her, I straightened my back to face Akin.
Title of the document
“Zane is in the dragon’s lair,” I muttered through a clenched jaw. My h*ands were itchy from the desire to slap Zane. His arrival in
my home was a threat he wanted to pass. And I got the message.
“What the f*uc*k!” Akin hissed. “You don’t worry; I will come with you. We will together take care of this matter and make sure the
lair remains safe from his evil plans,” Akin was quick enough to offer me water to calm me down.
I was having too many thoughts and worries when I imagined what could possibly make Zane think paying a visit to my home
was a good idea.
“I have to leave right now,” I told Akin as I followed him to the living room. “What’s happening?” Helel rushed inside and
questioned us when he watched us looking all depressed.
“Zane is in the dragon’s lair,” Akin told him because I was too consumed by anger to say a word. Helel’s jaw clenched as he
openly displayed his hatred towards someone who took their brother from them.
“Then why are we still standing here?” Helel asked.
“We should leave. I will take the private jet—,” as Akin began to speak, I shook my head to dismiss his offer.
“I cannot wait for that long. My mom seemed worried. It is not easy for her to see her son’s eater like this. And knowing Zane, I
am sure he is giving them hell. I will make use of Ace’s powers and fly over to reach them in time while Akin can join me in his jet
later,” I explained, making it clear somebody needs to stay behind with Gwen. Zane was very clever, and it could be his way of
separating us from Gwen and probably hurting her.
So far, Zane has not exposed his true mission to any of us. At one point, it looked like he wanted to be the King of the World, but
that would be too obvious.
“I am not letting you go over there all by yourself. Zane is crazy. We never know what he is up to,” Akin disagreed. He held my
h*and to stop me from walking towards the exit.
“You have to trust me that I will take care of it. Just take the jet and come as soon as you can. But I need to go right now,” I
gently patted the back of his h*and before freeing my h*and from his grasp. He looked so worried and upset that he was not able
to join me instantly.
I could take him with me and make him ride me, but that would consume a lot of my energy. Considering I can only stay in my full
dragon form for a few minutes, it will reduce the full transition timing even more. I will be taking a few minutes break now and
then to transition into full form again.
It was already going to take time, so I couldn’t bring myself to delay anymore. “Fine. But you will not argue with him. Try to avoid
him as much as you can, okay?” Akin cupped my face, and the instant he did that, Helel swiftly looked away.
“I will take care of myself,” I reassured Akin, but I don’t know how much of it he believed. He knew I would do the exact opposite
and end up fighting Zane. But he had to give me the benefit of the doubt.
He planted a gentle k*iss on my l*ips before he parted with me to the mountains to watch me transition and fly away.
The car ride was filled with silence and anxiousness. Our own once-friend is now our big enemy. Now that I’m thinking about
past happenings, I could clearly see Zane was behind them.
Huia went missing on his watch. He had planned it all. From lying about me to Helel and even blaming Gwen, he had planned it
all perfectly.
He was the one who constantly suggested we take the white dagger from Helel. Because he knew he would not be able to get it
himself as long as the dagger was with Helel.
Akin stood in the back while I took off my clothes and transitioned. Letting Ace out after taking off the pendant felt so amazing. I
had kept the pendant tied to my anklet to keep it safe. As I flew away, I watched Akin stand down and look at me with much
worry.
I am going to miss him a lot.
The journey was h*ard now that I was alone. I would land in the mountains and find guards standing there with clothes and food.
Akin was keeping track of my location and would call certain areas and order the guards to take care of me when I was there. I
had not expected that much love from him, even when I knew he would treat me special.
It took me a whole day, and by the time I reached the Midwest, I was extremely tired.
My body was aching as I had used my wings way too much to fly at a speed that I had never done before. Now that I was near
home, I was already exhausted. But that didn’t stop me from keeping going.
The black little dress I was given could barely cover my t*highs. Once I arrived at the castle, I saw my mother at the door with
Vincent.
It was obvious that my mother didn’t even want to go inside and face him. “I am so glad you are here,” she whispered,
approaching me and holding my h*ands.
“Where is he?” I asked her anxiously. “He is inside, waiting for you on the royal throne,” she muttered under her breath, turning
her face away.
