'Sometimes, when you realize that the family which was supposed to be your safe haven is nothing but a place filled negativeness harmful for your heart and cause you immeasurable pain in return of your devoted love, just pack your bags and leave. Leave and let go. Not because they are deemed as bad. But because they are a huge rock to your growth and happiness, especially to your life. '

It has been 2 days since King Azazel had brought their mate to their palace.

As much as the council members wanted to celebrate this moment and the cheeky Vampire King wanted to take away the betted powerful flying broom stick from Queen Witch, they sadly couldn't. Because the whole palace had been veiled with nothing but an eerie gloomy atmosphere since King Azazel had come carrying in their Queen to home.

Why you ask?

Even the council members didn't know.

They just subconsciously couldn't smile or think of anything positive as long as they were inside the vicinity of the palace.

And about their King.

King Azazel had not attended any meeting for 2 days straight.

He had spent his whole day locked up in his room with his mate.

Except the previous day's morn when he had shaken up the whole area by destroying the whole eastern wing of the Palace in his blazing anger and rage.

His action had caused the servants and the Royal Officials to spectaculate various romantic theories concerning their Queen and King.

Some were even saying that he had kidnapped their queen and was currently doing 'extreme' level activities with her in their closed off chamber.

Against their fantasies, the reality was actually very different.

When an unconscious Aiyana had been brought into Azazel's room, he had immediately ordered a doctor to treat her. After that they and little monster had accompanied her the whole night until she woke up the next morning.

When Aiyana woke up, she wasn't that shocked to find herself in an unknown place.

She was rather a little calm as Azazel was beside her. But her calmness didn't last for long.

Recalling the scary events that occurred the previous night she completely broke down sobbing and shaking in her mates's arms.

For the whole day, Azazel and Azron had held their mate in their arms trying to pacify her. They knew how traumatic the events were for her. And how they had scarred her mind.

Even little Phoenix had laid beside his mother's legs trying to comfort her by rubbing his small head on her feet.

During the evening, she had somewhat calmed down. But she refused to eat anything until the next day.

Today, after waking in her mates arms, she was eerily quite. She was always lost in her thoughts about what had happened. Trying to absorb the pain, fear, helplessness and other negative emotions roaming in her mind into herself.

She wanted to forget them. So she had to accept them first.

Azazel and Azron just couldn't manage to see their mate so sad any longer. So after lunch, they had taken her to roam the vast garden in the palace.

Now Aiyana, who had slowly started coming back to her senses, was staring at the exquisite eye delights of her mates domain.

She was sitting near an artificial waterfall as she silently gazed at every small or little wonder of nature and mortals her eyes could perceive.

Azazel stood quietly leaning on a tree while watching her from a distance.

He suddenly stood straight and walked towards her. After sitting behind her on the wide stone steps of the waterfall, one of his arms hugged her tightly to his chest. In reply, Aiyana flinched for a second before relaxing in his arms.

He signed with his other hand in front of her.

Wanna see something wonderful?

She tilted her head at that. After being silent for some seconds, she gently nodded her gloomy face to him.

He smiled in relief and then turned her to face him.

A hint of curiosity was forming on her face.

He gave her a wink and flicked his fingers after mumbling something.

Instantaneously, small threads of glowing lights had started to float from the plants, trees and insects around them.

Aiyana gasped with her eyes wide open as she witnessed the magical scene in front of her.

The glowing strings were everywhere. It was even more on plants than on insects.

She gazed at her mate with total wonder and admiration.

Seeing her marveled eyes, Azazel just chuckled and ruffled her hair. He fondly kissed the crown of her head.

He held her hands and nudged her to see them. When she saw her hands emitting the same floating light threads, she gasped even more and started to shake in joy.

When she saw more closely, her threads of light were a little lighter in color, almost silver with some dark lining in the middle.

She laughed while trying to touch them. They felt warm in her palms.

When she titled her head, she saw magical threads on Azazel too.

She stared at them in complete bafflement.

His floating threads were completely different. They were black and maroon in color. A total contrast to their surroundings.

She glanced at Azazel's eyes in concern, to ask him why his were different.

Azazel, noticing their mate's confusion, swiftly answered her rising question.

These floating threads are the essense of life's energy.

He signed.

Aiyana made an 'Ooo' to it.

She again diverted her gaze to his threads.

Now that she sees it, at a closer look, his threads had a silver lining in the middle surrounded by black and maroon radiance. She giggled at that.

Somehow, the thought that came to her mind was.

If I am silver and they are black and maroon, we look really beautiful together.

She blushed lightly at her thoughts.

Azazel, when noticed the cute shade on her cheeks, pinched her cheek softly to which she pouted.

Apparently their mate didn't like anyone pinching her cheeks. He just laughed at her merrily.

What other magics do you know? Aiyana signed at him excitedly, her previously gloomy look had totally vanished, as if it was never there in the first place.

Azazel smirked and gave her a wolfish grin.

Just like that, the trio of soulmates spent the rest of their day in the garden. Azazel performed various spells and conjurations to their mate to amuse her. While Aiyana laughed, giggled and clapped in happiness, amazement and admiration respectively on her mate's magic.

When the night came, after having a delicious dinner on Azron's lap from his own hands, he had transformed into his beast form and had shown her the whole palace on his back.

They ran, they sprinted, they laughed, and they even leaped while on his back.

The servants at the Palace who had witnessed their Master, the infamous beast, playing with their mate were ready to pass away to afterlife in relief and amazement.

Finally, a Queen to keep the beast in a leash!!! They cheered in their hearts.

But what they didn't know was Aiyana wasn't someone who would ever want to keep her Azron in a painful leash. Rather, she was someone who would want to see him running freely in joy. Around her, of course.

She had started to love them from time ago. She had just not realized it.

But she will. And that too, very soon.

In just a span of few hours, the whole palace was filled with murmurings and whispers of admiration and love for their new arrived Queen.

The previous versions of her being kidnapped and all that dark fantasy gossips were totally pushed back to an invisible corner of the palace residents minds.

When the Royal Officers had come to the Palace the next morning, they were very happy and were shedding tears of joy at the news about their new Queen.

The servants of the palace had described her as a fairy from the heavens to the officers.

For the first time in many years, the once cold and eerie haunted like palace was brimming with happiness and smiles.
