Chapter 97: Reunion
"Iria don’t leave me!" Prescott’s heart-shattering voice resounded in the night forest scaring other animals residing in it.
He slumped on the ground and looked as the portal closed with Killian entering in the end. His throat burned with bubbling emotions and anger which broke his heart, "She left me" he muttered "Just like past, she once again chose Theodore" then he glared at Gregory who stood frozen in his place "What are you going to do now bastard!? I told you to not trust that panther. I lost her because of you!"
Gregory blinked back his tears and turned towards Prescott, "She is alive and well and that is what matters the most. Snatching her away again is not a big deal"
Prescott narrowed his eyes hearing his words, "Is it really that easy? One of him was enough to trick us both into handing Iria over, then do you believe it would be easy to pass all of them and reach Iria?"
"But Iria trusts me, you also know that," Gregory said but he was losing his confidence as time passed.
Prescott snickered at him, "Do you think it will be the same after getting to know the truth about her abduction? She may be meek and kind but we crossed our lines by deceiving her" he smiled sadly as he continued, "She always hated me, but I guess it is now your turn"
Gregory glared at him "Stop mopping around and get up! We have so many works to do, now that our beloved is awake" he smirked eerily and looked at a distance, "Let us go to the eagle tribe"
"Eagle tribe?" he asked not understanding the sudden decision about going to the eagle tried, moreover it was Theodore’s old tribe.
He nodded his head, "Shouldn’t we as good in law’s inform Lyra’s true mate from the prophecy about the fake taking his place in her heart?"
