Tale Of The White Wolf [River Of Wonders - 2]

21: A Great Lose

"Dear girl, have you seen Lady Lalaith?" Someone asked in a polite manner. Hiril turned around and found Finduilas walking towards her.

"She is over there." Hiril answered and pointed towards the direction. Finduilas stopped beside them and looked at Duilin.

"I haven't seen his human form. Why do he remain like this?" She asked Hiril. Hiril looked behind at Duilin and sighed.

"I don't know, My Lady" She answered and turned to face Finduilas, who nodded and walked away. When Finduilas was gone she turned to Duilin, who was back to his human form and asked," Why don't you let her see you?"

"She was the one who threw me to the were-wolves. I am best without her." Duilin answered angrily.

"At least tell her now. What will you do if she die in the battle? Will you be able to forgive yourself?" Hiril asked, staring at him with anger. "She is your sister, Duilin. Even if she abandoned you, she is your sister." She walked away after saying the last words. Duilin kept staring at her. He sighed and looked at the sky.

What should I do, Lalaith/ He thought and turned around. Halias was looking at him, he smiled and walked towards Duilin.

"It is time, Duilin. Finduilas is not happy for losing you, although she pretends that she don't care about your death. Think at least once. I hope it will help you." He said and walked away. Duilin smiled and called.

"Halias." Halias stopped and looked behind. Duilin also turned around.

"Who do you really love? Lalaith or Finduilas?"

"Why did you ask?" Halias laughed and asked. Looking at him with a confused look.

"You can understand both my sisters more than me. Why is that?"

Halias sighed deeply and smiled. "I understand Lalaith more than anyone only because I am connected with her by her heart." As he said he put a hand on his chest and looked at Duilin.

"What is it?"

"Your sisters can't live without fighting each other." Both of them laughed loudly and walked away together.

Blue was looking at everyone. She was sitting on the roof of the palace. She heard someone walking towards her but she didn't pay much attention to it. It was Halmir. He came and sat beside her.

"What are you thinking?" He asked and looked around the city. It was all visible. He smiled faintly and looked at Blue who was looking at her.

"What do you think I am thinking?" She asked him instead.

"Fearing of losing someone special." He replied and looked away. Blue smiled and looked at the sky.

"What is you relation with Lady Thuna?" She asked, staring at the starry sky.

Halmir remained silent for a long time but he looked back at her. "She ruined her brother's life for nothing. I am son of her beloved brother, her only family. She wanted him to marry the previous White Wolf, but he also rejected." Blue looked at her hand, on her lap and tears fell from her eyes. "Father then married an elf commoner. She was nice and lovely. But Lady Thuna came after her, after my mother. Father saved her and travelled far away into the west, where they become the rulers of the Green Land. Thuna tried to haunt them, but she failed. Father protected the city with all his and mother's powers, until today. We left it to stop the chaos. I want to be free." On his last words Blue looked at him.

"What do you mean?"

"I have been sealed inside the city for years. But now on mother's order I am here. Father didn't want me to come. He wanted me to stay home and find someone for myself. But I want to fight. I want to be free." Blue stared at him, because his eyes were filled with tears.
