Venom’s POV
The family was back and so did my brothers return back home too after the issues we had and after we finally rescheduled Maya. S new home was gotten for the royal family to stay in and Elora wasn’t discovered yet, her whereabouts or who she truly was.
“Isn’t all of these beautiful? With the fact that the match at the hell’s pit got postponed too, we are better now.” I heard her say as we both laid by the pool side.
I smiled where I was, I was just as glad as she was and enjoying that comfort of peace was everything at that point.
“Well, I can’t wait for it to come and go so we can figure things out even if I still feel we need to attack Maximum and his heinous people.”
I mentioned the idea to her again, we had not gone to battle with the pack simply because Maya had not been released from her lifeline and she could just die if they wished. It was an ominous fear to lose her, but the kingdom didn’t know so much about our fears and we were safe.
The two of us stayed there calmly, enjoying the air and the water swaying gently. We had swam in it and surprisingly, Maya was a novice at swimming.
After teased and multiple pleas, I was only able to get her into the water for a bit before she gave up and we ended the session of training for her.
For a while, we discussed how she had survived in the wild and how things went for her. The stories she told were quite chilling and nerve-racking.
Maybe that was the reason why my hate for Elora was fueled more and more and there was a search already declared for her. Hee pictures were all over the place and it would only take a matter of time before she would get caught or never show up again.
“Was there a reason why she was trying to sell you?” I asked Maya while we discussed.
“Not that I know of. She was pretty quiet even when she saw me and it was like she wasn’t the same witch that had me in chains and shackles.” She explained. It was one of those few times I saw her irritation and anger at its purest.
“Can you recognize the place? Maybe we make a search later for the people that did what they did. It would definitely be important to get hold of them.”
“I’m not sure I can, but we can do that as part of ou escapades once I get my freedom. I would definitely like to punish those who punished me.” She declared.
I thought about the couple of attacks we had and how they had been from different angles and people we didn’t even recognize. A lot of people seemed to be out for us. At least, to a strong extent and they were making strong moves against us.
“At first, we never really suspected Elora.” I mentioned, remembering how trusting we had been not to realize she was the one behind the case all along.
“I was surprised with what happened with the bag. I don’t think I could have believed such thing too. I wonder what breed she is because that was powerful and,” Maya hesitated to continue.
“What’s that?”
“It’s nothing, it’s just a random memory of something that happened. Let’s not just worry and enjoy the environment.” She said.
The calm environment was soon disrupted by Caleb who rushed towards where we were. “Brother, I think you’ll definitely need to see this!” He announced as soon as he reached where we were by the pool.
I wasn’t sold, but I had to go with the urgency he showcased. I stood up and followed the trail he led, but he stopped, “she has to come too,” he said.
“Wow, alright.”
She stood up and we both left to wherever he was taking us in the room. I assumed it would be in regards to something mischievous.
“What’s happening, Caleb? And what’s going on?” I asked him.
“It’s just something important and I want you to see it.”
We finally got inside and he les us to the home library. There were a couple of books lying on the ground and we had to carefully step at some point so as not to step on them. The place was pretty unruly.
“You better have something important to show us, Caleb, for having us go through all of these.” I warned him.
“Trust me, you’d want to see this,” he said again.
At long last, we got to a point where we stopped and he decided he would show us the mysterious thing.
He sat us down in front of a desk and pushed an open book to us. “What’s this for?” Maya asked him.
“Just read it, two of you.” He gestured and we did.
The page was headed by “Anecestrality and archaic traditions,” he then pointed to a particular part of the book where he wanted us to read.
“Usually, the dominant omega would be free from any battles involved in the dome and everyone would forfeit any matches they have with them once they attain that level of transformation.” I read it out loud as I skimmed through the words.
There was something there that caught my eyesight, it was an image of a wolf in its pure form, just wild and maybe growling.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
“See this!” Caleb pointed to the page enthusiastically and I glanced at Maya to check if she could see what I was seeing too.
“That’s Maya’s kind of wolf!” I exclaimed.
“Exactly!” Caleb affirmed, “we don’t even have to go to battle or so many hassles, by law and tradition, she is supposed to be exempted and that’s even her default form already.” He added.
” Call a meeting with the council, we will be having discussions on the grounds of this issue by the next full moon.” I instructed Caleb.
