The royal guards were massacring the rogues brutally. It wasn't that they didn't deserved it but such cruelty shook Medusa to the core.

There were bloody organs lying on the ground, slit throats and dead bodies piled like haystack.

"Come with me Medusa." She focused on Rhysand's voice but he was no where near.

"I am near the creek, come to me my love." She didn't knew why but she felt he was lying, she could feel his stares right then, following her each step...each movement precisely.

An array of arrows dipped in silver were aimed towards her, making her run back to grab a shield. Blue fire surrounded the path she was following, burning her feet.

Her red cloak was caught in a grip before she could run further...making her look towards the one who dared to stop her in wrath despite the extreme pain burning her skin.

She was going to shed her skin soon.

But her anger dissipated as soon as she realized it was Gaelic- Rhysand's wolf who had her cloak snapped shut in his sharp canines.

Surprisingly the arrows stopped as he gave a monstrous growl which shook the regimes of battlefield.

No he wasn't a werewolf, he was a Lycan. Medusa realised he wasn't an Omega, that wolf possessed too much power even for an alpha to bear.

It was overpowering, flowing through her senses. Lycans were legends from history, there was absolutely no one to challenge their power and authority.....except Medusa, the goddess had granted her enough power to change the course of a gigantic river, to burn ocean with her internal rage.

But right this moment it was impossible, with each passing second her body was falling weak with her vision blurring. On one side Zion fought for her while Gaelic circled her like his prey.

She realized Rhysand was lying all along, she stepped back a little only for him to follow her path and just like that the chase begun.

The black wolf following her was magnificent, raised to the height of thirteen feet, his fur shining while his eyes remained glowing cyan, he loved chasing his mate.

Medusa's vision blurred as she stumbled only to be caught by a hard body.
She screamed as her arms burned, veins popping as a thin layer of skin shredded.

"I am sorry princess." A sharp sting in her neck made the world go all black.

--------------------
She laid on the flower bed in forest, exhausted from her change, glowing cyan eyes watched her sleeping, trying to paint her picture in their heart, he needed to leave her soon, was it fair?

It has never been fair to him but he loved her so much to make her a pawn in his game. He loved his moon.

"MEDUSA!" She woke up to the sound of her father frantically trying to wake her up. Her eyes squinted as the smell of burnt flesh and smoke infiltrated her nostrils.

"Dad?"

"You need to go pup, we have lost the battle, all rogues are dead and the ones which are left are trapped by royality, your body needs to heal child, go away, they will come searching for us."

"You both need to go." The voice made Zion's eyes harden and fill with disgust. He pulled his daughter closer embracing her in his hold.

"I WILL KILL YOU, YOU BASTARD." Zion spat in revulsion.

"W-What is happening? Dad? Rhy?" Medusa sat up weakly, despite all her body protesting she limped to her mate whose fists clenched and hands itched to held her close.

Despite all the evidences pointing at Rhysand, Medusa's heart refused to believe that he was a liar, that he deceived her.

"I the commander general of this mission- to wipe out the kingdom of Rogues, banish you and your father. Go away Medusa." Medusa stiffened, her lips parted and heart shattered as she registered his words.

Her own mate wanted her gone, he used her for his own benefit, her body trembled with the agony and sadness washing through her.

"Listen to me Rhy, I will be good to you, I will d-do as y-you say, w-will never b-bother you, please d-dont-"

"Go away Medusa"

"D-dad p-please t-tell him I a-am s-sorry." Her nightmares were coming true.

Zion growled ready to shift in his wolf to end the life of the person who damaged his daughter beyond repair.

Medusa raised her palm stopping him.
"Why?" Her voice cracked.

"Get out of here Medusa" tears streamed down her face, the shock of what was really happening engulfing her soul.

Because I love you he wanted to say as blood dripped down his wounds.

Zion held her hand glaring daggers at Rhysand, disgust and poison evident in his eyes, he turned her around walking away.

Rhysand clenched his jaw, his feet carrying him infront of Medusa swiftly.
He crushed her into his chest, his lips kissing her forehead as she stayed limp. Zion ripped him apart from his daughter.

A moon has fallen....
