Rejected By My Mate novel Chapter 56

Third Person POV

Everyone witnessed how the King of the Demon Kingdom couldn’t use his powers, even after how many attempts until he gave up. That’s when they know Alex nullifies the demon’s power without him knowing. Sabrina knew about two things for the spell to take effect; first, a user needs to chant the spell in front of the being; and second, only a powerful user could be able to chant the spell in his mind and the spell will take effect upon touching the being you will put on a spell, but only a few had mastered it.

That’s why it confused Sabrina. How could King Warrick still chant a spell when his power got nullified? Sabrina knew the spell would take effect soon because of the dark magic still circling Alex. She doesn’t get it at all because Alex’s spell is too powerful to break. Unless the demon expected it? Or something unexplainable happened?

However, she stopped thinking about it for now and helped Alex defeat the giant three-headed snake demon beast. She gathered everyone together with the wizards and their pegasuses. Good thing the wizards stay to help them and let them borrow their pegasuses. Other wizards and warriors of Moonlight Kingdom stay to watch the battle between two powerful beings with extraordinary powers. They were anxiously waiting for the battle to end and who would win. They keep praying for the beast to get defeated by the chosen one—their savior.

Without everyone’s knowledge, when the black spear got stabbed on King Warrick’s chest, some of his powers returned because the black spear can reverse a spell including the nullification of power but not his fate. After all, no one could change it, but only the Goddess. Since he got stabbed straight to his heart, he knew his time was almost near. With the infinity light magic of the chosen one and his fate being changed, it’s too late to escape. And the only thing he could do to get even on Alex is by chanting a death spell. He practiced the death spell for a long time, just for the chosen one, because he already predicted this time would come. If he’ll die, he will not die alone. He made sure of it. That’s why this war is happening.

Knowing he’d die, he still doesn’t repent his sins and acknowledges none of them. Instead, he’s proud of his wrongdoings for centuries. Especially killing humans and werewolves because he thinks they are just a nuisance in this world and he must exterminate them. Beasts and demons should rule the earth, not humans and other creatures. That’s how obsessed he was with powers.

However, his death spell would only take effect if the silver sword will also get stabbed in Alex’s heart. So before his soul completely vanished, he used and transferred all his remaining power to control Lucian’s mind with the help of the spear’s spirit. He will use Lucian to kill the Chosen One. And in the end, he will earn the last laugh.

Meanwhile, Lucian grunted while holding his head. His mind turned a mess, and he kept hearing voices inside his head. Commanding him to do the orders. His hands clutch the sheathed sword with a firm grip because it urges him to stab the sword at Alex. He tries to control the sword, but the voices still echo in his mind until all he can see is jet black. He doesn’t know what happened anymore, and all he saw was darkness.

Cybelle notices Lucian’s struggles. She gasped when black magic surrounded Lucian and when she looked at his eyes; it turned to jet black as an evil possessed him. Cybelle called the others and pointed her hands to Lucian.

“L-Lucian…” King Alexander uttered upon seeing Lucian’s dark aura. And the dark aura he felt is the same as King Warrick.

Azrael’s heart rate quickens, his instincts tell him Lucian is going to use the sword to kill Alex. He knew it. “He’s being controlled.” King Desmond said and stared at Lucian’s jet-black eyes. A gasped escape on their lips.

Liza trembled at the sight of Lucian’s jet-black eyes. She wanted to escape, but she couldn't get out in a magic cage that Michelle made to trap her. Her heart was pounding as she remembered the day Lucian and other demons murdered her family and the entire pack. She trembled in fear and tears streamed down on her face. She let out a sigh of frustration. All she could do now is to watch everything that was happening around her without wasting her energy. “I guess I’m safe here,” she whispered.

“HAHAHAHAHA! Lucian is going to kill the chosen one! BWAHAHAHA!” Vladimir said while laughing, even though he couldn’t move a muscle.

Sabrina’s eyes narrowed and kicked Vladimir’s stomach until the latter cough with blood. She cast a spell to zip Vladimir’s mouth before standing in front of Lucian.

“Lucian! Give me the sword!” she said through gritted teeth. But Lucian laughed evilly and stared daggers at her. “I WILL KILL ALL OF YOU!” he said in a deep voice.

Lucian growled, but he didn’t unsheathe the sword yet and was still gripping it tightly. Sabrina guesses the sword is silver, that’s why Lucian can’t take it out from its cover yet because as a werewolf, silver will also affect him. At first glance, you could see that Lucian is fighting himself. He was fighting the demons inside him.

Azrael clenched his fist and transformed back into his full wolf form. He growled and attacked Lucian to stop his plan. They rolled over to the ground while fighting, canine to canine. He should get the sword from Lucian no matter what. He won’t let him kill his mate.

Sabrina and the others tried to help Azrael, but they all flew away when Lucian released dark magic to attack them all in one swift movement. Only Azrael didn’t fly away because he used his angel power to dodge Lucian’s attack. He howled and cried out of pain on his back when suddenly something grew on his back. He roared and a pair of white wings appeared on his back. It’s his angel wings. His eyes glowed with flecks of gold and his aura changed. He roared and attacked Lucian again.

Cybelle remained standing expressionless while watching his biological father fighting a powerful hybrid being. Her eyes locked on Azrael, watching his every move, and her heart skipped a beat. She couldn’t tear her gaze away from him, admiring his every move. She slapped herself for thinking like that, she’s going insane.

‘Pull yourself together, Cybelle. It’s Alexandria’s mate for fuck’ sake!’ she scolded herself.

“You’re staring way too much, Cybelle. Alpha Azrael is Alexandria’s mate.” Lucia snapped out of her trance. She gasped and looked at Lucia, then sigh. “I know. It’s just he’s so hot while fighting. Well, you can’t blame me. Look at him.” she said while shrugging her shoulders and Lucia chuckled while nodding her head in amusement.

“You should find your mate soon,” Lucia mumbled and Cybelle hummed in agreement. She scolded herself in silence for admiring others’ mates. But she couldn’t understand why she reacted like that in the middle of the battlefield. That’s just crazy. She should focus on the war.

However, Layla and the others watched Alex fight the giant three-headed snake effortlessly dodging its attacks. Layla wanted to help, but Alex had already warned her in the very beginning that don’t interfere in her fight with the Lord of the Beasts. As stubborn as she is, she will help Alex if the situation gets out of hand. So, she didn’t tear her eyes away from the fight. Her forehead creased when a blue light flickered at the blood moon. That’s when she noticed the moon had two colors, which were blue and red. The two colors were fighting for dominance.

“Look at the moon!” a wizard exclaimed. Everyone’s attention diverted to the moon and they couldn’t believe their eyes. It’s the first time in history that a moon had two colors and the blue one almost dominated the red one.

“Do you think the blue moon will come out?” a vampire said.

“Does this mean, the disaster will end and a ray of hope will shine on us?” a werewolf mumbled, full of hope.

“Hopefully.” Everyone agreed and watched the unnerving fight.

Meanwhile, Alex closed her eyes and called the energy of nature by using the six powerful diamonds—their infinite powers. The giant three-headed snake moaned and closed his eyes upon being blinded by the light Alex releases from her body.

Lord Invictus didn’t waste any time and called the power of the blood moon. But he gasped when he noticed the moon having two colors while fighting for dominance.
