Chapter 9

I run and run till I couldn't breath anymore. I stopped for a moment until I heard the yells come closer and closer. I start again.
I want to keep my freedom, and they were going to take it from me. Even Piper, the lady I called my own mother. I think it's my time now.

I was running. My feet were bare and it was dark outside. I was inside a forest. I stopped myself for a moment and had taken some breaths. I heard shouting, and it frightened me. I didn't hesitate and started to pick up the pace. In the corner of my eye, I saw a stream, and I decided to follow it to find some salvation of a person other than myself. I followed and followed for what felt like forever.

Some time later, I found a cliff. A waterfall was nearby because I could hear the rushing streams and the falling droplets of water. I looked and saw an edge. The full moon was out and the sky was absolutely breath taking. The Ocean was as beautiful as I thought it could ever be.





I wish I could stare at it forever, but all good things must come to an end. I looked down below the cliff and saw the water smashing against the rocks.





I could see my life ending. It felt necessary to jump.

I heard the shouts becoming closer and closer. It's now or never, I told myself. I turned around and saw six different color eyes staring right back at me.

Purple as the universe, gold as the sun, blue/green as the ocean, blood red as the blood of a human, green as the grass, and black as night.

I think they're like the people from my story.

But I'm selfish, my mom once told me for wanting to leave this world behind.

It's my time.

I think they were saying something to me but I just kept walking back and back further to the edge. They started to walk towards me swiftly, and once one was close enough, I stepped back once more, and I was falling.

I heard the screams and shouts, and then I heard one particular voice, and it was whispered into my ear, "You are our angel eyes, and we will not lose you." I think his eyes were grey as the heart in my soul.

Then it all went black.

PIPER P.O.V.

  I feel really bad about what we did to Zahra, but she needs to go with them.  That's her destiny, and mine is to guide her, as being a witch will let me provide little for her but enough to survive all seven of her mates.  She has to choose one in time, and it will break her dearly.
  The road back to the Forsaken Realm. 
  Zahra was on the black horse with Lycio, as he is the one I chose to take her to their castle.  He has been the most gentle with her, and I was afraid that Xeddror may try something again.  His dragon is very protective, they all are.
  Xeddror the King of Dragons.
  Ocenne the King of the Sirens.
  Zadimus the King of Vampires.
  Lycio the King of Werewolves
  Raziel the King of Fallen Angels.
  Zelos the King of Warlocks.
  Aeden the King of Faeries.
  They all had the protective and possessive traits being what they are.  I feared for her safety because none of them will  want anyone else around her, especially the others.
None of them will want her to be around other males, or even around the others trying to fight for her heart.

ZAHRA P.O.V.

I woke up with the worst headache. My eyes hurt too much to open, and I can tell that there is light in the room. I noticed that when I have my eyes closed and when there is light in the room, the darkness in my eyes become a little lighter. I opened my eyes. The ceiling I had noticed first. There was a crystal, not diamond chandelier and I only noticed is because I read about them in a jewelry book because I was allergic to certain metals, such as nickel and stainless steal.
I sat up, a little dizzy, and I noticed seven men in the room, and one woman. They all looked at me.
Gold eyes and gold hair as the sun.
Purple eyes and hair as the universe itself.
Blue/green eyes with the blue/green hair as the sea.
Grey eyes and hair as life itself was coming to an end.
Green eyes and eyes as the grass blowing on a windy day.
Red blood eyes as the red blood hair as a human spilled.
Black eyes and hair as the darkness itself was that person.
I was so confused. I looked around and noticed that I am not at my house or Xeddror's. I remember running in the forest.
"Angel eyes" someone had called me. It felt so magical. This room had a feeling swirling in it that I cannot describe.
The blonde guy walks around and I notice that it's Lycio. He reaches out to touch me but I flinch and look down. He sighed and walked back to where he was with the other six.
I glance up at Piper who has a tear running down her eyes, and then she does the unexpected.
"OUT YOU HORNY BASTARDS, I WILL NOT TELL YOU TWICE," she runs and grabs the broom, and they all run out. She still chases after them, and I heard someone yell, "OUCH, PIPER!!"
She comes back in and locks the door.
"Let me explain, Zahra." I nod.
She comes and sits down on the bed that I am in. I take a look at the bed, and it's black sheets with deep purple designs. It's stunning. The room itself is black and it seems beautiful, but a tad of color and it would look absolutely beautiful.
Piper clears her throat and I look at her.
"We are far from home, my dearie. Your time has come."
"What do you mean, Piper? What is my time?" I ask worrying.
"It's time for you to find yourself, and someone to love." she says with a small smile.
"I don't want any man, Piper, I was finally free." I say with a tear.
"They will give you the freedom you desire, but you also have to cooperate with them." she says with a blank face.
"Who Piper?" I ask.

"Ocenne the King of the Sirens.
Zadimus the King of Vampires.
Lycio the King of Werewolves
Raziel the King of Fallen Angels.
Zelos the King of Warlocks.
Aeden the King of Faeries, and
Xeddror the King of Dragons."

"Piper you must be joking, this sounds crazy. Like this is a fairy tale, a prank even!! Right Piper, you seriously had me there for a second." I giggle for a moment, and that's when she grabs me out of bed and rushes me to the balcony, and that's when I see them.
My heart dropped, and so did my body.
