Chapter 71: Water power

Lyra and Killian continued to hug each other, They felt peaceful in each other’s presence. Lyra slightly pulled back from him and looked into his eyes "How did you find out that I was here in the beast city?"

Killian smiled faintly and flicked his fingers "Kenna showed me"

As he said that, a small flicker of an orange flame materialized into a small bird "Master!" its cheerful voice rang in the room.

Lyra widened her eyes and looked at it with twinkling eyes "You can do magic?"

Killian chuckled seeing her expectant gaze and pinched her cheeks "This is not magic, Kenna is my innate power, coming from black panther tribe, I was blessed with a fire attribute"

"Oh" she nodded her head in understanding "So you have the power of fire within you?"

"Hmm, I can wield fire and command it" he replied

At that time Kenna chirped loudly "Master, the unknown power that was blocking me is coming from your female, I can sense that she has water attribute"

Killian turned towards Lyra "You also have an ability?"

"What?" Lyra asked in confusion "I don’t know what you are talking about"

"Give me your hand," Killian said and took Lyra’s palm in his hands and closed his eyes, he narrowed his eyes, and as expected she had water attribute, but it was weak compared to Kenna, and it was sealed.

He opened his eyes in confusion "Why is your power sealed...?" and before he could ask more, Victor came into the room and dragged Killian out "Come with me, I have something important to talk to you"

Killian held Victor’s hand "Let me go, how dare you drag me like this you stupid bird!"

Lyra looked at them in amazement as both of them bickered and went out. After they left, Demir entered the room with a faint smile and sat next to her "Hi sunshine"

She frowned "Why are you guys acting so strangely?"

He grinned and held her hand "It’s nothing, I just wanted to talk to you"

Lyra raised her brows "Talk to me?"

Demir nodded his head and wore a grim face "You never converse with me, It has been so many days since I last talked to you"

Lyra observed his face and opened her mouth "You like me?"

He nodded his head "Yes I like you"

"Why?"

He widened his eyes in surprise "What do you mean by that? I know that I just like you"

"Just like that?" she tilted her head

Demir bit his lower lip, he just wanted to distract her from Killian and Victor so he came up with something to talk about, but seeing her speak so seriously, his mouth went dry. Then he thought about it, why did he like her? He also didn’t know, he just knew that he liked her, No! he loved her.

"No I don’t like you, I love you" he blurted out

Lyra chuckled "Why do you love me? There must be some reason right?"

Demir bent his head "I really don’t know why, but I just love you"

Seeing him like a puppy kicked out by its master, Lyra’s heart melted, she patted his hand "I’m just teasing you, I know that you were trying to distract me from Killian and Victor"

Demir looked up at her "You know?"

She nodded her head "I know that you all are maintaining a secret from me, and I will not force any of you to say it, but I would be glad if any of you say it willingly. I have never kept any secret from you guys, so I hope you guys say it before I lose my patience"

"I’m sorry" Demir frowned "I didn’t know that you were already aware of this, but please wait for some more days, I will reveal everything to you"

"Hmm," she responded, it hurt her that many things were going on behind her back and not even one of them believed her enough to reveal it.

Outside the rose castle, Killian pushed Victor away from him, and glared at him "What are you doing!?"

Victor balanced his ground and turned to him "I should be the one to ask you that, what were you trying to say to Lyra?"

Killian frowned "She has water ability, and I don’t think that she knows it, so I was going to explain it to her"

"Explain my foot" Victor snapped "Can’t you understand that we are keeping it hidden from her? She will be in danger if her power awakens"

"What do you mean by that bird? How is her power harmful to her?" Killian asked

"It is" Victor affirmed "If her power wakes up now, it will alert the ones who are trying to harm her"

Killian narrowed his eyes "Harm her?"

Victor nodded his head "Lyra’s existence is not so simple, she has many enemies chasing after her"

"Why?" Killian asked in a deep cold voice "Who dares harm my mate?"

Victor closed his eyes and explained everything about Lyra to him. That she was from another world, about sapphire of wish, Gregory, Fox king, her father.

"Do you understand now?" he questioned

Killian blinked his eyes "I understand, but why are you guys keeping all of this a secret from her? Do you think she would appreciate you guys deciding everything for her life? It is her life, she should know about herself before anyone else, let her make decisions. Protecting her is the only thing we should oversee"

"But she will feel hurt when she learns that her parents from another world are not her real parents. And about her real mother sacrificing herself for my sweet girl will make her feel guilty" Victor reasoned

Killian cackled "Then are you guys going to hide this from her forever?"

Victor shook his head "We will reveal this when her father Theodore arrives, so, please keep your mouth shut until then"

"You wish" Killian rolled his eyes "Who are you guys to choose everything for her? I’m going to reveal it"

"Killian!" Victor yelled "Stop your recklessness at least now, try to discern the situation"

"He is right, let us reveal it" Blake’s voice broke their bickering.

"What? Have you also lost your mind, Blake?" Victor asked flabbergasted by Blake’s sudden change in behavior.

Blake glanced at him "Peter brought Lilly’s father, he is currently in snake clan outside the city"

Victor widened his eyes "When did this happen?"

"I just received a message from my men" he answered

Victor held his forehead "Is Peter alive?"

Blake frowned "I heard that he was beaten to death, and only by mentioning Lilly’s name did Theodore let him live"

Victor sighed "When are we going to meet him?"

"Tomorrow" Blake answered, then he looked at Killian "Wait until next day"

Killian nodded his head and turned around to walk back upstairs.

Victor squinted his eyes at him "Where are you going? Demir is inside with my sweet girl"

"Don’t worry I will throw him out" Killian deadpanned

"Tone down your possessiveness a little or you will scare her," Victor said

Killian turned to face Victor "The fact that you all are breathing is enough to prove that I’m holding my tolerance, so don’t pester me more than that"

"She is my mate too Killian, don’t forget that she loves me and has given birth to my children, so tolerating is the only thing you can do," Blake said.

Killian clenched his jaws and came down, then went out of the castle.

Victor chuckled and looked at Blake "You handled him competently"

"He can become overbearing if I don’t speak realities" Blake reacted
