Chapter 120 : Not Going to End Well

Dylan was still staring at Helen. His face was a mixture of excitement, awe, and fear. But he did seem relieved that Sebastian had been defeated.

Helen met Dylan’s gaze, her expression was peaceful. She nodded to him, and said something that only the few of us could understand, “Rest assured. What’s done is done. I don’t regret my decision.”

However, that was the only thing she said to the king, and it didn’t seem that she had any desire to converse with him more.

Payne stood by the king, keeping him from running off, shock in his eyes, too.

The puppets that were left stopped attacking. They started wandering around, bumping into each other and off the walls.

Soren came out of the shadows in human form. He’d found a t-shirt and sweats to throw on. Thomas must have brought spares in case they had to shift.

“Your Majesty, we don’t want to hurt you,” Soren said to the king. “However, based on your history, I think it would be best if you were to accompany us until we get to safety.”

That was Soren’s nice way of telling Dylan we were taking him hostage without making it sound like a threat.

“There are far too many hidden mechanisms in this place and I’m not going to risk getting trapped here with my men,” he continued.

Dylan, or at this point, King Sebastian as he would be known going forward, didn’t respond. He just looked at the guards around him, like he was saying he didn’t have much of a choice.

Soren turned to Eros. “Lead the way. Let’s get the hell out of this dungeon.”

“Yes, Sir,” Eros said cheerily. He headed off and motioned to us over his shoulder. “This way, follow me.”

I saw Ashley roll her eyes but she followed after Eros with everyone else.

“Aunt Helen…” I went over to her. She was still supported by all the roots. “Are you able to move freely?”

Helen nodded and came down the corridor with us.

Eros was leading us back to the maze that led to the exit he’d tried to take me to earlier.

Soren and I stayed close to Helen. A few times, the roots that supported her slipped and I held my arms up to steady her. I thought it must be hard for her to “walk” like that. The ground was uneven and the roots couldn’t feel the floor the same way feet could.

“Are you okay?” I asked, ready to catch her again.

“Don’t worry, Mila. I’m just tired. I haven’t used magic like this in a long time,” she said, still smiling. She still looked strong and beautiful but I could tell that she was getting weary. Her energy was fading.

When Eros opened the last gate of the secret passage, sunlight streamed in, along with claws and teeth snarling at us.

More royal guards had arrived to protect the king.

Soren cleared his throat. “Please ask your men to back off. We’re no threat to you.”
