Chapter 777: To Get The Answers

Evanthe fell unconscious in Draven’s arms while crying. All her energy had been exhausted after trying to tap on her true powers.

Drayce finally approached them. He lifted his mother in his arms and they disappeared from the place. Drayce carried her back to the Witch Clan where he let her rest inside one of the healing chambers.

"She is just exhausted," Draven assured.

Drayce hummed and once more passed some of his divine powers to Evanthe to help her weak body.

Cornelia arrived there and informed, "Morpheus and Aureus are awake as well."

Draven hummed, and instructed Cornelia, "Stay by Evanthe’ side. Don’t let her go anywhere."

Both the Dragons left to see the divine eagles, while Oriana finally asked something which she had been wondering about. "Lady Cornelia, where is Yorian?"

"I am not sure either. He had gone all of a sudden," Cornelia informed.

"Disappeared?" Oriana asked in surprise, "Yorian would never disappear in such a situation."

"I know. I am sure there is a reason," Cornelia assured.

When Draven and Drayce left Evanth’e healing chamber, they heard the noises.

"Lord Morpheus, Lord Aureus, you can’t leave in such a situation. Please listen to us," it was Silvia who was trying to stop the two divine eagles who were in rage and were leaving to get the ones they had decided to protect.

"Do not force me to use my powers on you." That was Morpheus’ angry voice.

"Step aside," Aureus was the same. The usually polite Aureus had no intentions of being polite.

"Stay down, Morpheus, Aureus." Draven’s voice echoed in the place, "Don’t be reckless in this situation."

Silvia, the white witch, felt relieved that someone was finally here to stop these two eagles.

Morpheus looked at him, his gaze anything but calm, "Seems like you have yet not realized that someone had taken away our mate."

"I am well aware, but it’s your time to realise the ones who had taken her away are more powerful than us," Draven responded as he stood facing Morpheus. "If you could win against them, then Ember would be with us now. Moreover, do you even know where to go to look for our mate?"

Hearing it, the guilt of not being able to protect his mate gripped even strongly to Morpheus’ heart.

"I am not blaming you and you should not blame yourself as well. If I was here, the result would have been the same," Draven added, "Those are angels and we are just earthly supernaturals. If we plan to fight them, we have to be well prepared."

"Well prepared?" Morpheus said in disbelief and in anger, "and till then let Ember be with them? We don’t even know what they would do with her. We know she is a previous deity of fire which the heaven realm sees as a threat. What if..."

"They can’t harm her. Trust me," Draven said as he placed his hand on Morpheus’ shoulder, "Or I wouldn’t be this calm as well." He looked at Aureus, "You have to be calm as well."

Aureus looked at Drayce, who said to him, "Draven is right. We will bring Ember and Seren back. You don’t have to feel guilty for not being able to protect them. All we need to do is to gather every help we can and plan our moves with no mistakes. Our enemies are far more powerful than we can deal with."

Aureus could only hum but the guilt of not being able to protect Seren could never be lessened. ’She surely doesn’t deserve a weak beast like me as her mate. That’s why she is Dragon’s mate. I am not even worthy of her. I can’t even protect her.’

"If both of you are recovered, you should join us in the preparations," Draven added.

Both could only agree while Morpehus said. "I won’t let them off once I face them again. They will pay for taking my mate away from me."
