BLOOD LEGACIES

Chapter 86: No Control

DACE

~

I couldn’t restrain my damn body, I couldn’t contain my blood from simmering and I was very... VERY close to a shift, I could already hear my bones stretching, and the heat that radiated from me was enough to melt a forest, but I held it in as best as I could, but I just couldn’t, especially when I recall the look of fear in Emma’s beautiful green eyes.

I mentally punch myself and cuss a mantra of fucks under my breath. I promised myself that she would never have to see me like that, but I have done it! I have crossed that line, I reacted too wildly.

Taking a whiff of that god-awful smell made me tense and scared for her sake, only for it to belong to a flower? And none other than Sarah’s doing.

I growled and punched the tree before me. The tree was shocked by it and also snapped. I was hungry for blood, for whoever caused sure a thing to Emma, she hasn’t fucking slept for days because of that nightmare, she almost died because of her dreams and it was all HER fault!

I shook my head continuing my stroll in the forest, I couldn’t think candidly all I knew was I was about to bring hell to a certain family, and the Hathaways are gonna pay, one thing werelion despised was fairy dust, it was a hindrance to our nose, which is why I didn’t first catch the notice of it when I first walked into Emma’s room, as always her scent was too intoxicating... whenever I’m around her, other scent seemed loss and the only focus was just her.

But when I smelt her fear that was when I caught a whiff of that fucking malice smell, it made my innards turn at how sick it was, and it was what only fortify me to stalk all my way to the Hathaway household.

The other families were just how the werelion lived except for some, they lived with their clan.

The sorry excuse of a gate wasn’t enough to stop me, with two of my hands I was able to bend the irons like paper and stroll my way in, I just walked into the compound and some of the residents watch me with wide eyes, one simple thing about faes was, they don’t put up spells like the witches to keep us out, which means, I’m not unwanted.

But that doesn’t stop the shock from their faces because werelions have never come into another territory ever since the lands were divided, fuck all that!

"Where. Is. Sarah. Hathaway?" I solicit with a menacing look, my fucking shift was so close that I couldn’t contain it, I was losing it and I knew it, my control was slipping and the more I pictured what Emma went through or what more she must have gone through if I didn’t sniff out that out made me rage more.

My head was clouded with nothing but anger and the need to seek some justice, I have never been the unreasonable type, but that was able to change.

"Dace"

My head snapped in the direction of Sarah who stepped forward in just her PJs with a shocked look, I caught notice of how she arranged herself, like why the fuck would I care about how she looked?

"Y-You’re not supposed to be here" she began with a blush running some strand of her brown hair loose from her ponytail, behind her ear with her fingers. "Whatever it is, we can talk tomorrow"

I also huffed at her words, but that wasn’t the time for that. I stretched my hand forward and opened my palm which held the rose petals and the damn fairy dust.

When she saw this, I caught her eyes widened in shock, almost like she couldn’t believe what I had on me, and with a look of bafflement.

"Care to explain?" I merely forced myself to speak, because my sabertooth was on the verge of breaking free. But I held it in as best I could.

"W-W-What are you talking about?" she said in a shady unstable tone, I could hear the trace of anxiety, such a bad liar. I could even smell it, she was not being honest with me, which was sick!

"I know faes apologize with flowers... " I began, it was part of the trait of faes, flowers were the closest things to them, this entire compound was covered in them, even their buildings, they owned most of the garden in some regions.

"What I don’t get is fairy dust on it"

She was about to speak but I was swift.

"You’re underage to be using this, I know faes have rules and it certainly does apply to this, infecting a human with this is out of the question!"

"Look you can’t come here at this hour and blame me for whatever," she said, seeming angry now, but she doesn’t have the right to be.

"Your so-called flower of apology was meant to give Emma nightmares, you know the consequence of this?!"

She didn’t speak, she was still. In frustration, I flung the rose away and I noticed her jolt from my action.

"Nightmares that affected her body in reality, YOU WOULD HAVE KILLED HER!"

"Maybe she deserved it!"

I lost it, it was fury and it was all I needed to hear, she had committed a crime and I didn’t need any audience with the other families to lay judgment. I was ready for blood.

"Dace!" a hand on my chest and my frenzied glowing eyes leveled down to Emilia, what the fuck was she doing here?

Like she heard my thoughts she spoke. "Your thoughts are a mess... you aren’t thinking straight"

"You followed me here?!" I growled.

"Dace, calm down!"

"Don’t fucking tell me that! Anyone who lays a hand on what’s mine will pay the price!"

"Don’t you dare claim a human, you have no right, you hear me?"
