THE FORSAKEN ANGEL

Episode 36-Shocking revelation

After Andrea left to protect Crystal and I returned from delivering her message I decided I wanted to spend with Lily but when I got to her room she was sleeping and I decided to let her rest since she’d had such a long journey, I checked on Dylan and he wasn’t in his room so, I walked back to check him in the sitting room by simply standing at the landing while briefly checking downstairs, it was just few members of my group that were there and there was no sign of Dylan; then I decided to ask around.

“Hematite, by any chance have you seen Dylan?” Helen asked with a tinge of worry in her tone.

“I don’t think he had returned from leading Nina back to her room, he must probably be with her” Hematite guessed shrugging her shoulders while she turned and head downstairs to join her mate. Helen worried the royal demon might be up to something immediately set out to find him only to meet him in a very compromising position, she doesn’t know why that upset her but she was suddenly upset by his actions and left after exchanging few words with him,

I walked back to my room after another pent up anger conversation with Dylan who didn't seem to mind about sleeping around with demons again, using the same excuse that he was compelled and didn't know what he was doing back then and didn't know what he was doing or trying to. I groaned loudly pushing the table to the wall feeling a sudden rage and anger towards him, how could he? Making me relive that day he was sleeping around with Ashley.

"Are you okay?" Alex worriedly asked as he made his way quietly into the room with his eyes briefly scanning my environment, he was quick to notice that my emotional behavior was imbalanced.

"I'm not" I sobbed moving into his arms which he had left open while trying to ask me the question.

"Helen, what's wrong?" Alex pressured cupping her cheek but she just smiled, Helen knew exactly how Alex would react if he was to tell him, Alex was hanging out with a demon.

"I'm just trying to do something and it's not working, I'm trying to reach out to my sister and see what is going on with her but she's not letting me" Helen lied looking deep into his mates questioning and worried eyes.

"I'm going to be fine, I just need a little more time" Helen assured and Alex smiled kissing her on the forehead before hugging her tighter.

After that he lead her to the bed to have a proper rest after which he stood by his side but Alex didn't believe Helen's story of what happened, she knew he was protecting someone from him and the only one that needed protection from him was Dylan, his cousin and also his mate first love but he needed Helen to be asleep before he walked up to Dylan and challenge him, after he thought Helen was asleep he left and was heading right to Dylan's room when he heard Helen's door crick open.

"I don't think I'll be able to sleep" Helen smiled immediately Alex turned towards the direction for the sound only for him to meet Helen's eyes and Alex nodded going back for him.

"But I'll try, I just need some water downstairs" Helen told him about to head downstairs to get the water.

"I'll get it for you, go back inside-

"No Alex, I'll get it for myself" Helen insisted and head down the stairs and straight to the kitchen, after controlling drinkable water into her cup and gulping it down she decided to return to her room but figured out that Lily was back into the sitting room and was chatting everyone up, well at least she's well dressed, the last time she had gone into her room she wasn't properly dressed, she was sleeping in her bathroom robe but now she was in a gown, a black fitted gown and had black fingerless gloves fitting her hands as well.

Her dark chocolate hair was pulled by a black band into a neat ponytail tail that shimmer as the ray of sunlight falls on them.

"The last time I came into your room you were sleeping" Helen laughed softly walking up to her and she turned to face her back.

"Yes actually, I was asleep but it was short-lived, someone came into my room and that little imbalance in the quiet woke me. Lily gave Helen an accusing look and she chuckled.

"I'm sorry, didn't mean to wake you up, in fact I decided that you deserve some rest but I didn't know I will be disrupting that. I'm really sorry" Helen apologized putting down the cup which had the remaining water she had taken from the kitchen.

"Come on princess, I know you mean well" Lily patted her shoulders before facing everyone in the room.

"I believe the queen has regained her full powers, It can't be long before she comes here...maybe you all don't need to pressure Pearl into learning the full capacity of her power so she can extract the princess soul, even with her learning the full potential of her power she won't be able to deal with the princess soul, she's far too powerful and dangerous...and the queen knew this. She had planned this out I'm certain because I could feel her power as I stood right here" Lily announced and murmurs rise into the air as everyone tried to figure out what was going on.

"But how is that possible? How could you have possibly felt it? She isn't due for the delivery until-

"The queen told me when the war started that Vera’s mate is very impulsive, she planned to force him to poison her when she's due for labour" But none of the group members still seem to understand.

"She wanted to induce her labour early and Claus poison could do that...if she managed to her her baby out of her, her powers is going to slowly return to her and once she's powerful enough she will do the extraction of princess Angelique's soul-

"How could she have formulated such a scheme?" Helen frowned looking deeper into Lily's emerald eyes.

"Claus is hiding something from Vera, actually three different things and that's why he's going to fall into the queen's trap, he made Vera's mother into an imbecile because Vera's mother was from the royal demon family, another bloodline, Claus grandfather and Nina's grandfather were brothers, Vera’s mother also lived in the palace and when she was hunted down for being a mate to the king of all angels, one of her hunters was Claus' mother which she accidentally killed and Claus wanted revenge so, he did it...it's why he had to kill the demon king because he knew the history, he's afraid to lose his mate and everyone who knew about what he did has paid a terrible price. The queen believed he poison Vera’s mother everyday so she'll not be able to recover and tell the tale-

"But why can't we just tell Vera, I mean without Claus she'd be broken...I he's the only one keeping her together?" Helen questioned but Lily heaved softly instead.

"It's far more than that...the Queen want to delay the princess fusion of both her Angel and Demon side, it's inevitable but it can be delayed, she's going to be the most powerful Angel in the whole world after that happens, an Angel with a power to kill another Angel and a pure soul...there's only one Angel who had attained that level before the princess mate Karl, he was an hybrid as well, in fact from the Nina's family bloodline...the most important, and could have been the heir to the throne of he hadn't revoked his right as a prince to be with the princess. He was the first born of Nina's grandfather, older than the demon king himself...he managed to attain that level of power but still maintained his humbleness, but they were both too powerful to be together, it's why the king and queen couldn't accept their marriage because Princess Angelique is also the true heir to Angel Bay's throne and the queen is only a regent, actually before the accident happen he was planning to revoke her title to Sapphire because after her it's him but he can only act as a regent because he isn't an AQUA ANGEL, he can't control water in all forms, if the princess will revoke the title it has to be to you Helen but you can make Sapphire a regent, have him rule in your stead but the throne will remain yours" Lily explained but Helen was too overwhelmed by the news and couldn't stand it and decided to just leave.

"Helen-

"I...I...I need to think" She declared and hurried for the stairs only to meet Dylan, their eyes met for a brief second but she hurried away, moved into her room to digest the news but she had questions, the news was overwhelming, was Karl alive? She wanted to know that much but on returning to the sitting room found out they were discussing something about imprinting and as she tried to inquire about it. She felt herself being called and pulled so she fight...she tried to fight it but it was extremely hard fighting against her sister and she eventually give in, there she relayed the news of Dylan's poisoning and was forced to go back afterwards, making her gasp out.

"Crystal, I mean Damian...he's in danger" Helen announced the moment her eyes fluttered open to see the rest of his group staring worriedly at her.

"Who's Damian?" Lily asked with a curious expression mixed with baffled.

"He's a guy Crystal likes, the girl my sister is in...she likes the guy name Damian, she will hate me if I let anything happen to that boy...we have to save him. My sister said a demon did it, she said she has that demons claws but she knew view special angels to make the antidote.

"But how can you be so sure she isn't into any trouble this time? What if she's tricking you-

"And why would she do that?" Helen interrupted Garnet before he add to his question.

"I saw blood running down her nose, she has no intention to lie" Helen defended after Garnet fall quiet afterwards.

"We have to go and save Damian and the special angels that I'm certain could make an antidote to the venom of the claw, I'm guessing is...Morgan, Rose and Ruby...get ready, we have no time to waste" Helen ordered the three angels and they nodded moving out to follow her orders.
