The Spurned Heir

I tried keeping my eyes opened but it was impossible, the pain was eating me deep into my bone marrow, I was feeling my whole body struck with intense pain that weakened me to the core.

Seeing Scarlett walk in at that moment with those grins made my heart shattered as I got to know she must have been the one who set up all this, the food was poisoned and I had made a mistake of eating it even when I found it suspicious, the maiden must have known of it and that was why she was all shivering.

"Noah the almighty Dragon, sit up let's talk" I heard the taunting voice of Scarlett making me grunt in pain and anger.

I wished I could stand up and strangle her, I wish I got the strength to squeeze the life out of her but all that was not possible as I found it hard moving just a finger of mine, I could only stare at her with my half-closed eyes, my teeth were gnashed as the pain swept over me.

"Why are you both lying down like weaklings?,

I can remember today was the day you set to hunt me or was I wrong??.

I'm sure I heard your conversations yesterday night?.

What is happening? I'm here for the fight only to see both of you lying like a log of woods", She giggled mockingly tearing my ear apart in shame and fury.

I could only hear those words but can't do anything and that pained me the most, Layla must also be in pain, pain from the poison and the mockery words from Scarlett.

"Noah, I don't know where you got your powers from? It is similar to that of King Liam making me wonder who you are, so I won't kill you, Liam is coming, I can't wait to hear what he would say about you, as for Layla, I would have killed her before he comes.

"She laughed this time, I could only curse her in my heart as my lips were shut.

Layla's POV.

The pain made me numb, hot tears rolled down my cheeks, I was still trying to absorb the pains when the voice of Scarlett was heard. Each word she blurted out was like a sword piercing my heart, I can't believe she was this cruel. Just then, I heard the door open again. "What happened to them?"

"They look numb?", I heard the voice of Alpha Dolph my father.

"Have you found out where Oliver is?" She asked,

"That was also the reason I came here, the guards have searched all around and couldn't find him, I'm getting so troubled, what if he had been attacked, like where the hell would he had gone to, The Red Moon Pack didn't abduct him too", I heard him grumbled with his tone showing how much he cared.

"The chain used to cuff Layla could only be broken by someone with the Royal Blood, I had a deep thought and found out it was Oliver who released her that day of the war since he was the only one Royal who aren't in the battleground", she paused and I heard her sigh.

"Does it means...Layla..."

"My Alpha, Layla knows where your son is... since he released her, i wonder what happened next, this demon girl must have harmed him afterwards, only her knows what happened to Oliver!", she stated and my heart stopped beating for some moment,

Fear gripped me from the floor where I lay, I couldn't help shivering so hard, i was in trouble and i know Scarlett was right, Oliver broke the chain, but then, I knew nothing about where he is, he left with Louve and i can't tell which pack they went to and where it was located.

"Layla, where is my son located??", the deep scary voice of my father Dolph filled the room and resounded in head with a bang.

I swallowed nothing and shut my eyes more tightly, the pain from the poison was setting my whole body on fire with its intense pain but then, the worst was about to happen.

"Are you deaf?...Where is my son Oliver??!!!", His voice thundered the second time leaving me struck with fear as my lips move with no word coming out.

"I said where...", his heavy kick struck my belly making me gasp for breath, he grabbed me up and landed two blows on my belly and blood spurt out of my lips instantly.

"Tell me where he is or I'll keep hitting you till dawn!!", he threatened and another kick landed on my head making it pound so hard that i felt i would die.

"Let me use the special fire mixed with Silver which i got, remember i told you about it as the most painful torture for demons like her, bet me, it would make her spit the truth", Scarlett's voice sounded in my ear making more tears roll down my eyes especially when my father nodded at her words.

My eyes darted to Noah and I could see how hard he struggled to attack but i guess Scarlett planned it all so well, the poison won't let him make any advances.

My heart was heavy and bleeds not just for the pain, but that my father was blinded by her charms.

I couldn't talk as the pains seized my lips, my eyes were all fixed on Scarlett who has a smirk on her face as she menace forward to where i lay right there on the floor...

My lips were quivering but no sound came out.

She spread her left palm and fire emanated, I could see how it burns hellishly, I could already feel the heat from the distance i was, the silver in it was already affecting my wolf as she whimpered, running helter skelter around my body. "Please...don't let her do this, I'll die!!", Daciana my wolf cried with the most painful voice I had ever heard, it exuded so much sadness, the type I had never heard before.

"Please... Layla, i don't want to die", she mumbled rolling herself together.

I felt heartbroken, I felt her deep pain making me so guilty, she must have regretted being my wolf as i have caused her nothing but pain and rejection and now she might die all because of me.

I raised my gaze and saw Scarlett already close by, my eyes shifted to Noah and i could see how he growled silently, I could see tears rolling down profusely...

"I told you I would win ...you doubted me, i should make you believe now", Scarlett whispered to me with those sly looks breaking my heart the more.

"Your wolf would die and you will be weakened forever, you would be a pauper", she addes laughing softly as she brought the fire closer.

I could already feel my skin smear, the hotness was so terrible that i couldn't scream but gasp.

My eyes shut tightly, my fist clenched, and I couldn't tell how i did it but then, I threw a heavy punch to her face and she flew backwards with great force hitting her back on the wall.

All the pains I had felt vanished at once, I felt the beast in me open her eyes and great power surged out through my whole body like wildfire, I rose from the floor feeling myself shifting rapidly...

"What is she turning into?", I heard the voices around me, my heart became stony as great rage filled me up, the beat rose, and my powers increased, all my nails turned in long shaped claws, strongly pointed fangs formed and i also felt something form right at my back like a pair of wings...

"Attack that demon!!!", Scarlett screamed and i opened my eyes, seeing the warriors shift into their wolves,

They were numbered ten and rushed at me the same time, my mouth went wide open and blue helish fire spread out turning them into ashes at the same time, it spread out from my back...

A strong pair of wings just like Noah's own...

"Another Dragon Wolf???", Scarlett screamed with her eyes wide open but I wasn't ready to watch her shock at the anger in me boiled the more,

With great speed, i charged at her ready to devour her in shreds but just as i got to where she was, she disappeared.

Twenty one more warriors rushed in and charged at me, attacked me with their wolf state and i tore them with one blow, my eyes went to Dad as he stood transfixed in shock.

"Please don't kill me... He knelt immediately seeing the fire in my eyes.

But I wasn't seeing him as my father at the moment, my great anger won't let me.

I gripped his neck tight making him convulse and struggle for breath...

"You hated me so I'll kill you!!!", I growled deeply tightened my grip, his eyes popped, his tongue rolled out with clot of blood,

"Don't kill your father!!!", the voice of Noah resounded in my head really loud making me slam him to the wall so hard that i could hear his bone crack...

"Scarlett is gone...", I heard Noah's voice again as he held my palm gently calming down the anger in me,

Finally, for the first time, i felt the power of the dragon spread through me and deep in my heart I felt Dragon spirit right inside like my wolf.

"Layla, so you are a Dragon wolf?", Noah asked and i shifted into my human form falling into his arms.

"I guess so, this is my first complete shifting...", i replied with a smile.

*******

Scarlett's POV,

I fell right outside the pack heavily to the ground as my powers got exhausted from the huge powers I used for disappearing suddenly.

I had no choice or i would have died, her powers were the greatest i had ever seen, much like that of Liam, she had the same colour of wings as him, her voice and her eyes was the same as his own also whenever he wants to shift... I couldn't withstand her force not after I had gotten a broken back after her thunderous punch.

Fear gripped me as I head away to the demon clan, my fear was becoming reality, it was becoming real, Evelyn had got pregnant for Liam, the child she had when we fought was the child of Liam and not the child of Alpha Dolph.

My heart was beating so fast and loud, the fear of losing, at last, was taking all over me, never have I ever thought of this, Layla has been a weakling, she never showed any signs of a Dragon even though she had to resist my attack, i doubted her being this powerful...

Oh gosh!!!....this is not happening.

I was very weak and couldn't run further, just then, I felt the presence of thr demon king,

He took me away immediately...

"Please, I want to destroy that pack!!!", I cried as he flew to the clan.

"But you should be alright first!", he replied and I shook my head.

"I can die if that was the only way to destroy it, Evelyn would laugh at me...", I whined.

"Why haven't you succeeded all this while?...you were too slow!", he gruffed.

"Please do this for me and I'll marry you, I swear", I shrilled causing him to pause.

"Really?", he questioned and I nodded drying the tears in my eyes.

"I've always loved you and marrying you is my biggest dream. I'll be the happiest man on Earth, having you as my maiden, I'll help you more to destroy that pack", he gasped feeling so elated.

"Please be fast before she...",

"Don't worry, I know what to do!", he smirked and shut his eyes spreading his arms causing thick black smoke to fill the air around his body...

He muttered some words and the fog whirled off.

"What did you do?", I asked immediately as he made a deep breath.

"I've locked them up in that room!", he stated and handed a key to me.

"This is the only key that can open that door, Layla and Noah were yet to leave the room so I had to lock them up there since we both know they can't be defeated, you can go back and extinct that pack!!!", he gruffed with a peal of croaky laughter which i joined in.

He held my hands and transferred his inner energy to my body making me feel more powers, my injuries healed immediately.

"Thank you so much!", I squeaked and hugged him tightly, breaking off almost immediately preventing him from wrapping his hands around me.

"I'll be waiting for your return, just know i love you so much...i can't wait to have you as my...", I couldn't hear that annoying part.

He must be dreaming to ever think I will be his Wife.
