Mated To The Lycan King

Chapter 103

Miranda POV

The siblings and their armies are currently under a cloaking spell. We lost them. They were just gone, without a trace or even a hint of where they could be hiding. They could have moved out or have surrounded our walls. No one knows. The witches have been working hard to try to lift it, but it doesn't do anyone any good if we don't know their location. Avalynn proposed that they may have gotten spooked by everyone here. Most of the pack leaders and more Lycans and Witches than I would dare to go up against from both sides of our territories. were all gathered here. My mind was going what felt like a million miles an hour. My thoughts moved quickly from one to the other.

I sighed as I felt my magic coursing through me, wanting an escape, a release. I was so annoyed by the off and on appearance of the siblings. I was ready to end this and put it behind us and move on with our futures. I sat at my desk, moving my chair back and forth as I studied the map in front of me. I was still getting used to where everything was located in the kingdom. I was afraid that it might take too long to figure it out.

"I got it. If anything happens, give me control and I will get us through it. I will make sure we go in the right direction. The map is burned into my, well, our memory." Seraphine spoke with a smile. It was weird how I could tell she was smiling.

"Thank you." I told her. I was so very grateful for her, even if it was weird having her in my mind. I was getting used to it though.

I looked back down at the map at where all of our hidden bunkers were located and the secret ways to get there through hidden passages in between the walls, more closely. I could feel Seraphine looking with me, studying the entire thing. I felt a knot in my stomach as my mind flashed and everything went dark. Suddenly, a vision was brought forth and it was like I was watching the future unfold before me. I reached out to touch the tree I was standing next to. It was dripping with what I could only imagine was blood, but I couldn't feel it. Not only that, but my hand stayed dry. I looked out into the distance and frowned at what I couldn't see. It was as if everything was completely blurry. One thing for sure was there would be a lot of deaths, as I was surrounded by corpses and the green grass was tainted crimson. We knew that there would be a lot of deaths that would be coming our way, we just did not know when.

I took a cautious step out onto the field. With every step I made I looked around for any danger. Then I heard the muffled sounds of a deep voice. I couldn't make out entirely what he was saying but I could tell it was pain, worry, a hint of anger, and sorrow.

Even blurry, I could tell it was Brent as he rushed past me. When I turned to look where he was running to, the vision disappeared and I was looking at a worried Avalynn.

"Are you okay?" She asked me. I blinked, trying to regain my focus. When my eyes focused on Avalynn, I raised my eyebrows at her.

"You can see me?" I asked her and reached out and grabbed her hand. I could feel her.

She looked at me weird and nodded "Yes." She said hesitently.

"Okay." I inhaled deeply. "I just had a vision. I couldn't make it out though. It was all blurry." I quickly told her.

"Oh. Well then, that isn't too handy if it's blurry." She gave a light laugh.

"I guess not." I paused and turned my attention back to the map. "Have you studied the maps yet?"

"I have." Avalynn moved to the opposite side of the table to look at it with me.
