Chapter 95

95-One Evil Twin 17 Years Ago:

Author’s POV:

“What are you saying? He is alive; I can hear him breathe.” Sofia started questioning Huia’s knowledge as she watched her son breathe like normal.

“That is you forcing life onto him. I can sense you holding a dead body in your hands, sister. Let him rest or he will ruin the entire world’s peace,” Huia voiced from inside, shivering a little as she felt the dead energy from the little boy’s body.

“No! This isn’t why I came here,” Sofia said as she took a few strides into the cave.

“What brought you here, then?” Huia asked in confusion. She could tell Vasquez and Sofia had started walking into the cave with their dead son.

“I want you to tell me how can we revive him. I want him to live,” Sofia stubbornly approached Huia, who had her arms stretched around and chained to the wall, looking skinnier than ever. She didn’t have anyone to take care of her, and she was still nowhere near ready to leave the world. Somebody must have been feeding her, or else where did the surround- ing bones come from? But Vasquez shook his head to focus on the matter at hand.

Huia inhaled a fistful of air and then lowered her face to mourn the death of the little boy.

“Sofia! If you let him go now, he will be at peace. You can-not hold him back forever; don’t force it,” Huia murmured, as she could tell the pain Sofia was feeling would be unimaginable.

“No! He is just a little boy. He doesn’t have to die. Please tell me how can I revive him?” Sofia cried softly as she begged her sister for help.

Huia closed her eyes and let out a sigh.

“Fine. But what would I get?” Huia then raised her face and smiled at them. Her words gave Sofia hope, but to Vasquez, the idea of making a deal with her sounded like a terror.

“What do you want?” Vasquez asked, while Sofia pro- cessed the whole thing.

“My freedom, the one that I deserve,” Huia confessed, and Vasquez shook his head without even giving it a thought.

“NO!” As he said it loudly enough for his voice to be heard in the cave, Sofia seemed to have a smile on her lips.

“So you are telling me there is a way to save him?” Sofia asked in excitement, her chest filling with happiness.

“There is always a way. A Loophole some may call,” Huia uttered, but she could sense the negative energy from Vasquez, as he was not ready to take this deal.

“We cannot set her free. She is dangerous. The moment she is out of these chains, she will go on a killing spree.” Vasquez tried reminding Sofia what terror Huia can cause, but that didn’t matter to Sofia.

She was going to do anything to keep her son alive.

“Help my son live, and you shall be granted freedom.” Sofia didn’t even have to persuade her mate. She took the de- cision herself.

“What are you saying?” Vasquez turned to Sofia and shared a terror-filled stare with her, but she was certain of her stance.

“Hold him in your arms and tell me. Do you want to bury your son?” Sofia handed him over to Vasquez and asked him genuine question. The fear of losing his son made Vasquez shake his head softly.

“Then let me make this deal with her,” Sofia reassured Vasquez, gently placing her hand under his elbow and staring into his eyes for a moment.

“Okay, your call,” Vasquez said, taking a few steps back. with his son in his hands. Sofia took the lead and approached Huia.

“You first, tell me how to save my son.” Sofia hunched over and asked her blind sister.

“You still smell so good. I wish to get the cologne you are wearing when I am free,” Huia smirked when making a com- ment, “I hope you won’t get angry if I steal something from you this time.” She then mocked her before she stretched her neck back and demanded that they put the baby in her lap.

Vasquez did just that, but reluctantly. As soon as the little boy was resting in her lap, she started gulping and twitching.

A few minutes passed by as the parents watched their son sleep in that evil woman’s lap, and then Huia regained her posture. Vasquez carried his son again, while Huia had already found the only way to save the child.

“Feed him the weredragon baby.” As soon as those words. escaped her lips, a frown of anger took over Sofia’s forehead.

“What rubbish is this? Are you mocking us?” Sofia yelled as she couldn’t believe her sister had wasted her time.

“I told you, she would never help us.” Vasquez let out a sigh of exhaustion and hugged his son, giving up on any hopes.

“I am not lying. The dragons can live a life of eternity. They can stay alive for as long as they want. There is a young future dragon king who was born three months ago. Feed the future dragon king to him, and he shall live as long as he wants. In fact, with the most powerful standing, he will be vir- tually invincible,”

she explained why they needed to take that step.

Sofia and Vasquez shared a glance while Huia’s hair turned white for a moment. She wasn’t lying.

Whenever she would tell the truth, her black hair would turn white for a moment.

“There is only one dragon king, and I am sure he got mar- ried a year ago. His wife must have given birth to a baby boy by now,” Vasquez recalled having a meeting with the were- dragon king once a few months ago where he talked about his wife being pregnant.

“How the hell are we going to do that?” Sofia asked her mate, who started brain-storming hard.

“Cause chaos!” Huia hinted at the war with a smile of hope plastered across her parents’ faces.

“Thank you, sister,” Sofia smiled, watching her mate walk in the exit’s direction.

“Everything comes at a price now! now! My gift!” Huia raised her head and waited for her sister to free her.

The smile from her face began to wither when she heard her sister snicker and walk away.

“You fool! Why would I set you free when I know the very first thing you will do is come for me?” Sofia scoffed at how stupidly naïve her sister was and walked out of the cave to prepare for a war.

“YOU LIED AGAIN!” Huia screamed in anger, “I knew I couldn’t trust you.” She continued to scream and cry in frus- tration and anger. She had been trapped here while her sister was enjoying her life to the fullest.

“Go live happily because I did hold something back,” Huia’ s voice calmed down after she realized her sister was not coming back to hold her end of the deal.

Huia knew she couldn’t trust her sister; hence, she only told her half the truth.

“Your son will be evil incarnate, a threat to his own broth- ers until he defeats the great savior,” she smirked, and then burst out laughing.
