Chapter 10 - Damsel In Distress/魂 (Tamashii)

Aleirraki POV

After everyone was up and ready to leave the caves, they left the caves with their dragons and set back for the Shadow City. As they flew leisurely, they chatted amongst themselves casually.

"One time though, Logan was like thirteen or something" Zena began and she glanced at her with interest.

"Zena!" Logan exclaimed and Zena smirked at him in return, whatever was going to be said was not a good one, it was enough to make Logan uncomfortable.

Making her have a higher urge to hear it but then a sharp scream filled the air and everyone glanced down to find someone surrounded by many people holding sharp weapons of different kinds.

"Let's check it out, it could be bandits" Logan said out loud and everyone gave him and unsure look filled with question, this was not Logan at all but he was already diving towards them and she had no choice but to follow with the others behind them.

When they came low enough to be seen, she found out that it was some rough looking men surrounding a beautiful young lady and she gave Logan a questioning look but he instead directed Sage downwards and jumped off of her to land in their middle.

"The fuck" Zena gasped and Aleirraki was a tad bit surprised at how much Logan seemed to care for the young woman.

"Hello him" she said and Zedner went down the same way, joining Logan to kill off the attackers and soon they fended them off and the rest ran off with fear.

"Logan" she tentatively asked as she landed and leaned forward to get a better look at the mystery woman but then, a strange look entered the eyes of Logan and he began to walk towards the woman with bliss in his face.

"Tamashii" he said, his voice unlike him and she gave Zena and Zedner a questioning look only to find them looking shocked with their eyes on the duo.

"What is a Tamashii?" She asked out loud.

"Soul Bonded, we haven't heard about one in centuries" Zena explained and she understood with a sudden heavy heart, she was his soul Bonded and in other words, Logan's mate.

Cerberus snarled in her mind and her brows furrowed together with surprise at how maliciously he was sounding but he sent her images from his own eyes and she was shocked at what she saw.

From what she had come to learn, dragons saw more better and clearer than humans and with Cerberus being a dark Wraith, he saw evil quite quick and this woman was radiating it perfectly.

"Zena, Zedner" she called out with a low tone and they glanced at her.

"Use your dragons eyes and see her" she knew she was not making sense but they both nodded and in just a few seconds, their expressions turned into one filled with shock.

Sage roared from somewhere in the sky and her roar shook the trees, she did not sound pleased that was for sure---but Logan paid no heed to a this, he took the woman into his arms and soon, sage landed beside them.

"Logan, this is suspicious" Zena tried, hoping to clear her King on who this woman truly was, Zena could see that she was using dark magic on her King but--.

"Shut it, Zena. Set out" Logan barked out, voice deep and hoarse as he got on Sage with the woman who had fainted or was unconscious and then they both flew off.

But she caught something before they did, Sage gave a simple look and she knew Sage knew---she wasn't going to make a fuss yet but she planned to expose whatever trickery was happening.

"Well, this is fucked up" Zedner said with disgust in his voice and Aleirraki chuckled much to their confusion.

"This is not funny, she might be after something important" Zena gritted out.

"Or she might be a spy" Zedner added as they all glanced upwards to find that Logan had already set back for the Shadow City without them.

"I have a plan" she began and they all gave her their full attention.

"We accept her" she said simply but mischievously.

"What do you mean accept her? Thats preposterous " Zena immediately shut it down.

"We accept her and take her as our future Queen, then we always shower her with attention. Enough attention that she won't be able to escape our sights without it being seen as a disrespect and an insult. Also, we have to be sincere and this way, if she tries something then we would know" She explained and saw when they finally understood what was happening and then Zedner smirked.

"You're a genius, Alleiraki. Quite good" Zena complimented and she smiled.

"Come on, let's go" she bent low on Cerberus who was sending her warm feelings of excitement and then they all set off, back towards the Shadow City.

When they all got back, they were shocked at what was happening and she stopped ma'am Jacqueline who was busy giving out orders to maids and servants.

"What's going on here?" Zena asked with confusion, they were all feeling this so much this day and it seemed it wasn't getting to its end yet.

"King Logan ordered for a Wedding Preparation" she replied, her forehead beaded with sweat.

"Weddi--" Zedner spluttered with shock that everyone of them was feeling as they stood before the castle doors.

"Date?" Aleirraki couldn't help but ask, breath still as she waited the response.

"For tomorrow at dusk under the full Moon. He says it's what his Tamashii wanted" her eyes filled with devotion at the word Tamashii and Aleirraki felt her heart stutter a beat, then two and then three more beats.

"The fuck!!!" Zena exclaimed and people turned to glance at them with mean looks, everyone was happy for their king finding his beloved.

"The fuck!! It should have happened this evening" she grabbed at Zena and pulled them both away and she noticed how everyone smiled at that.

This Tamashii had somehow enchanted this people too and they had to find out how to reverse it. Her beasts growled in affirmation at that thought.
