I Scored Myself A Mate

"There is no way you will be getting my mother's spell book. This is not witch magic. It elven you wouldn't be able to use it anyways." Allias told her, his eyes showing a very obvious hostility. Amelia smiled and tapped her green colored fingernails on the wooden table. She didn't say anything as she tilted her head to the side and looked at the angered king.

"You need me" she simply stated. Allias gritted his teeth, his fist curling on top of the cold wood as he stared at her. 

"You can't have it. It's magic is sacred. It's used by my people to change the seasons, heal and many other things. I can't give it to you." He told her. There was no way he would let her have such a valuable pieve of information. It was simply impossible because it was vital to his people. The spell it contained were powerful, passed by elf to elf as they sat at the higher throne. Even if he did give it to her she wouldn't be able to perform the spells in it. 

"Well then I guess that's my que to leave" she said and pushed back her chair. She walked towards the door when Asmodeus appeared right in front of her closing her way. He brought his arm over his shoulders and turned her around, the witch frozen, intimidated by him.

"Come on now dear. Let's talk about it. Tell me what could you possibly do with an old book that you couldn't even use. Hmmm, something, something is not right." He said and with a swift move he placed his palm around her neck sticking her to the wall.

"Asmodeus" Mark exclaimed, surprised at his behaviour. Amelia coughted, her jeweled arms reaching to her neck as she tried to free herself. The demon turned around, facing his lover as he smiled. 

"Wait a second Mark." He told him and blew him a kiss before his eyes returned to the woman. "I've been thinking and thinking why would you come here so easily. Why would you be willing to help and ask for something you can't even use. That simply means someone else will use it for you, oh don't tell me you wanted the book for your collection" he said and tightened his grip. Amelia was shaking slapping his hand. "Will you tell us the truth?" He asked her and the woman nodded frantically. He let go of her. Amelia took a few deep breaths before she locked eyes with the elf king. He was going to kill her if she made another mistake. It was obvious in the way he stared at her that he did not want to hear any more lies. 

"I came here on my own. No one sent me. I just...I wanted the book because I've heard there is a spell. A spell that can summon the power of the sun and destroy even a city from far away. I found an elf who said they were going to perform it for me." Amelia explained and Allias raised an eyebrow. 

"Who do you want to ruin?" He asked her but she didn't answer. Her face was turned towards the floor. "Luke, you wanted to destroy the WhiteFangs." Allias mumbled. 

"They killed my sister! I let them off so easily her soul will be tortured in the after life." She said raising her tone. "I had been planning this for a while. I was going to steal it. But since I got this chance I took it." She said and Allias' started laughing. He had returned into sitting on his chair as he heard her shamelessly say that she was going to steal something from him.

"You are really courageous or maybe dumb. You wouldn't be able to step foot in her not let alone steal my mother grimoire. Because simply this place has a barrier, anyone with trully evil intends won't be able to pass. Also even if you managed somehow to steal it, and took it to that elf friend of yours who will be executed shortly he wouldn't be able to do it. Basically you've been scammed. Only I am powerful enough to cast that spell." He told her and her eyes widened. She had been cooled, something witch was surprising for such a young woman. She sat back on her chair devestated. 

"If you really want to take revenge for your sister. I can help you. I would love to beat Mikael up. Especially now that he is searching for his long lost soulmate." Mark mumbled with a frown. 

"Then this, do this for me!" Amelia said and looked at them. "Help me scare him, help him show him how I felt."

"We are not killing Mikael's mate." Theseus stated.

"No, it's okay. Do not kill her. She didn't so anything to me after all. Simply scare him. Pretend that you will kill her, or something. If he feels this pain maybe then..."

"Your sister wouldn't be happy with such childish behavior." Allias stated. "I didn't know her for long but it was obvious she was a very kind person. She always wanted to help even if it was to her own disadvantage. Seeing her sister stuck like this, not able to move on. This would upset her in the after life, not the fact that Mikael is alive. You need to move on." 

"Easy for you to say. Do you know how it feels to lose everything? She was the only family I have." Amelia told him while feeling insulted. Then her eyes landed on him, the king who sat a few meters away from her and realized what she had just said. Allias was smiling, his back on his chair as he shook his head. 

"Well, you could say I have my own fair experience. Anyways. I won't help you with this. The wolves are my only allies at the moment. Also there is no way I will let you near the grimoire. So think of something else or leave my palace this instant." He told her, his tone almost coming out like a command. Amelia remained silent, she was thinking. She was never going to get what she wanted. Allias had states that clearly.

"I want protection. For the years to come and I want gold and all of your medicine archivesin copies." She told them and the king smiled triumphant. 

"You have a deal."
