The Enchantress of Snow (Delaney Series #1)

Chapter 41: Captured

Captured

Percival's POV

I glanced at Eira when her eyes bore to the twins laying in the ground, surrounded by guards. Kumibot-kibot ang labi niya nang makita ang kalagayan ng mga kapatid.

She then looked at Leon, not far away from her who was also bleeding but still stood strongly to fight.

There's a hint of hurt in her eyes but what stood more was anger. Her face had no emotions but you could feel her anger everywhere. From the snow that was floating around, the sound of the wind, and even the trees movement.

"Freeze..." she said again and we all saw how the ice crawled from where she stood to the enemies.

The ice climbed from their toes until it slowly reached their head and they all fell to the ground.

Eira just got into the battlefield but she already took out a lot of enemies. Her people looked at her like they were so happy when they saw her arrive. Tila nabuhayan sila ulit ng loob at sabay-sabay na tumakbo patungo sa mga kalaban.

"Where is Tobias?" Her voice was enough to reach me and Leon. None of us answered. We both know that Eira's emotion is her own enemy. "Leon? Where is Tobias?"

"He... he's in the palace..."

Her forehead creased. "Bakit? May nangyari?"

Leon didn't answer again so Eira looked at him. "Anong nangyari kay Tobias?"

"Eira..." her older brother couldn't seem to find the right words.

"Sino ang may gawa?" Her cold voice echoed everywhere. I still don't know why she can do that.

Eira's POV

When I didn't get an answer from Leon, I used my power to transport me to the palace. I appeared in front of Tobias's door and I was shocked to see many guards guarding his room.

Nagulat pa sila nang makita ako na dumating. Hindi ko sila pinansin at agad pumasok sa silid ni Tobias.

Agad akong natigilan at parang binuhusan ng malamig na tubig ang aking katawan ng makita ko ang kapatid ko na nakahiga at napapalibutan ng mga manggagamot. "Anong nangyayari dito?!"

"Empress..." Yumuko sila.
I only looked at them, waiting for an answer.

Good thing that there was one who finally spoke up. "The prince is cursed, Your Majesty..." I looked at her again waiting for more. "He was cursed by a vampire in the battlefield when he used his power to burn them alive. It is hard to revoke since it is a dying curse."

I clenched my fist after hearing what she said.

Naglakad ako palapit kay Tobias at ganoon nalang ang galit ko ng maramdaman ko kung gaano siya kalamig. "I will ask Magnus to burn all your books if you don't wake up..." I told even if he was still sleeping. "Please, wake up, Tobi..." I hoped for him to open his eyes but a minute passed and he was still sleeping.

There is a war waiting for me so I had to leave.

"Never leave his side..." I ordered everyone.

I used my powers again. I was in rage, ready to just kill them all at once, I wanted to kill them slowly until they begged me just to make their deaths easier.

Lalo pa akong pinangunahan ng galit ng makita ko ulit ang kambal na nakahiga na lamang .

"Bring them to the palace..." I ordered the guards. "Leave the war, Leon," I told my brother who was sweating blood.

"I'm fine," he answered. "You know that I love fighting while covered in blood."

Sinuri ko siya ng tingin pagkatapos bumuntong hininga na lamang at hinayaan siya.
