Chapter 19 / -Thorne- / 59 E 55 vouchers " How many days is it Thorne ?? " Kaelen roared . " How many more days ? Do you want me to disrespect you and order her release myself ? " " I will have you killed then ! " I muttered . " You really do not have a conscience , do you ? You kept her with rogue wolves even after she helped you with your eyes . Isn't that heartless of you ? " Kaelen spoke . He was vibrating , I needed no one to tell me he was angered to the core . " She might be dead , " Elara whispered . " You've lost your mind ! " Kaelen growled . " Don't say any other word unless you are spoken to . " " Thorne , " Kaelen tried sounding polite . " Release Selene ; she's not a threat . If you wouldn't accept her as your mate , fine , but let her go ." I touched my eyes . " Leave , we should talk about this some other time . " Kaelen glared at me for seconds before turning to leave , but just then a soft knock on the door stopped him . " Come in ." I muttered . A guard walked in and bowed slightly . " The priestess is here ." My heart stopped functioning for a second . " The priestess ? Why ? " She didn't inform any of us before coming . " Let her in ," I whispered , " Kaelen , stay back . Elara , you should leave . " Kaelen said nothing , but I knew he was already seated . Moments later , the door opened again , and the priestess walked in . I could see faintly to be able to notice the long dark cloak she wore . I stood up immediately in reverence , so did Thorne , but she didn't acknowledge our greetings . She went straight to the agenda that had brought her . 11:31 Tue , Sep 16 Chapter 19 " Mark and mate your mate ! " There was silence . " What mate ? " I said flatly . " Selene ? " In response she came close and touched my eyes . " Who did this ? " She muttered . " The same Selene , " Kaelen answered . The priestess gasped . " Mark my words , doom is around the corner . " I smirked . Then burst out laughing . : 59 EX 55 vouchers " This has to be the funniest thing I've heard today . You expect me to take that thing to the council as my Luna ? I won't do it . I don't care what doom will befall us , but I will never tie myself to someone like her ." Kaelen said nothing , but I could tell how furious he was with how heavily he breathed . The priestess continued . " She is more powerful than you think , but without the mark , her strength will collapse , and when she falls , you will fall , and so will the pack . You speak with so much pride , Thorne , and that will be your downfall ! " That was all she said and walked away before I had the choice to speak another word . Kaelen stood up . " I will give you an extra two days , after which I will go to the prison myself and bring Selene out . " Kaelen stormed out , leaving me confused . Not long after he had left , someone else walked in . " It's Elara ," she whispered . I grunted a response and sank into my chair . " Call the guards ," I muttered . " Let them bring Selene . " " There is absolutely no need for that , " Elara muttered and sat on my lap . " I wished you could see ; I had prepared something different for you , but I can also make you feel it ." " What could it be ? " 11:31 Tue , Sep 16 Chapter 19 : I adjusted on the chair while she fiddled with something I didn't know . " Here , " she muttered and placed my hand on something soft . It was her boobs . " Elara , what are you doing ? " I groaned and gave it a gentle squeeze . " Ye .... yess ," she moaned . " It's all yours . " I felt my cock rising at that moment and knew I had to stop . This wasn't the right time , not after the priestess's sermon . 59 55 vouchers " Elara " , I muttered . " Get the guards to bring her , and get prepared also ; I will present you to the council as my Luna . " " You will ? " She shouted out of excitement and rushed out to relay my message . A few minutes later , Selene was brought before me . I ordered everyone out to allow me some privacy . " You should administer the medicine , " I said politely . Earlier , I had asked Kaelen to bring the remaining vial . " Of course , " she muttered . The moment the medicine touched my eyelid , everything turned black . I didn't scream , but I felt my whole body go numb . ***** " Mother ! " I cried as I rocked the body of the dead woman on the floor . My eyes bled , yet I was concerned with the lifeless body of the woman on the floor . " Co with your brother , " she muttered and breathed her last . I stood up with my bleeding eyes and tried to find my way through the crowd , but the more I walked , the more other things entered the eyes , until I fell to the ground completely exhausted . ** " No ! " I screamed out . It was a trance , a terrible one ; it felt so real , yet I couldn't remember anything related to it . Worse still , something strange was happening to my eyes , but Selene was no longer in the room . 11:31 Tue , Sep 16 Chapter 19 I touched my eyes ; they were bleeding already . " Selene ! " I screamed . No response . " Elara ! Kaelen ! " Is anyone close ? " Yet there was no response . : 58 55 vouchers My eyes were getting worse ; I could feel blood running down my face , and the pain was becoming unbearable . " Somebody help !

My eyes fluttered open slowly , and the rays of light coming from the curtain hit me . ' Light ! ' I said to my wolf . ' Mark your mate ,' he answered calmly . " This isn't the time to discuss this ,' I fired . ' I can see light .' He said nothing in response . Excited , I opened my eyes fully , and behold , I could see faces staring down at me .
