Warrior Princess

Chapter 53

I ran away from him, going towards the opening of the portal. Maybe I can do something or find a way to close it. I heard a distinct roar indicating that Chase is very angry at me for running away but I didn't have any choice. He wouldn't even let me fight in the War, how come he will able to let me close the portal on my own. He is protective of me but right now I don't need a mate who care for me, all I need him to let me go and when everything is over, I will get back to him.

When I was going towards the portal, demons attacked me, I barely dodged them, I don't have enough strength to fight them, Rose used all of my energy in doing God knows what. Maybe she fought Lucifer because I am not seeing the King of hell among the crowd. But in the blindness of revenge, she endanger my realm, my people. I trusted her and she broke my trust. 

I saw the beautiful waterfall within my reach, I quicken my pace but suddenly halted in my steps when I saw demons in a line growling at me ready to attack. I can not fight them in this condition. I looked around me, this place was less crowded, only demons lurking around. She took the fight away from the portal. But how come I stop this creatures and close the portal together. These demons suddenly launched themselves towards me, I called my elemental power to fight, my arms burning with fire, with a flick of my wrist, I called trees and plants tangling some of the demons in their harsh grip. I created a sword from my fire power and defend myself from the onslaught. Suddenly one demon latched onto my arm and sink its teeth in my skin taking a good chunk of skin. I cried out in pain and stumbled on my feet momentarily lost. Blood gushing from the wound. My fire sword disappearing due to my lost concentration.     

I blinked my eyes in pain and tried to shield myself from demons, I know Chase can feel my pain, he will be searching for me. I have to do something. Demons attacked me again and I closed my eyes ready for more pain, I waited for the pain but it never came. I slowly opened my eyes and gaped in surprise. 

Rose!

There she stood in front of me in her real self. Her wings shining in the day light. For the first time she wasn't within me but was in front of me in solid form. She looked more than real. "Rose" I whispered staring at her natural form. She turned around a little bit giving me a glance to her face which was not similar to mine. She looked same as I saw her in her memories, beautiful and regal.

"Sorry, I am late Princess" She replied giving me a once over, her eyes narrowing at my wounds. Before I could replied, Demons jumped at her, but with ease she made them into dust, my eyes widened in surprised, Wow.

There was a positive energy surrounding her which made me want to be near her.

Angelic energy.

"I thought you would never come" I said and slowly walk towards her limbing in pain, some bastard demon clawed my thigh as well. She grimaced and with a flick of her wrist put a shield around us. "About that, I was half dead, I thought I would never see you again, the spell I used to imprison Lucifer took a lot out of me and I blacked out. When I opened my eyes, I heard your plea and quickly came here to fulfill my promise" She said with sad smile. My lips trembled and I launched myself at her hugging her. Tears appeared in my eyes as her wings engulfed me. 

"I would never abandoned you like that" She said with intensity that I believed her. I broke the hug and looked at her wings in awe, question pooling in my head. "How are you standing in front of me in your true form" I questioned her, genuinely confused. She lost her smile and frown appeared on her face. She put her hand on my shoulder "Lets not talk about that, we have an unfinished business" She said glaring at the demons who tried to break the shield but in vain.

"What will we do?" I asked her.

She gave me a look, her eyes were red with pain "I will close the portal".
