Chapter 206 - John Is The King Of Kratez

Despite the afar howl, she walked toward whatever that wood empty of trees and dried of plants was, she could spot in the distance what looked like houses or better, broken tents and some rests of food or what Roselyn hoped to be food and not something macabre.

The wind blew strongly and angry and Roselyn felt like somehow even the wind was scolding her for having reacted so impetuously without reconsidering twice her idea or at least having planned it better so that she wouldn't now stand in a desperate forest lost without a compass. However, now she couldn't do anything else besides wait and wish for the best.

She scolded herself mentally deciding to walk faster as she didn't feel safe to remain in that wood alone much longer, she was even wearing a light fabric dress and the strong wind that left her shivering from both cold and anxiety making her skin fill with goosebumps.

She ran in the middle of the wood to reach the residences she could spot in the fog when a grunt made her halt and freeze. She swallowed down. What was that? Her heart skip a beat and she forgot how to breathe properly. She cursed herself internally and damned herself one more time when two big yellow lights appeared in the fog.

"The famous banshee everyone is talking about." A disembodied voice spoke and Roselyn tried to reorganize her thoughts. She could escape, run away, and hope he wouldn't be able to catch her. But it seemed like something children would do in horror books and in the few horror books she read children was the first ones to be killed. So that decision was excluded.

She could threaten him, his husband was the King of Kratez, whoever that creature was he must be scared of him, but this second option was only as bad as the first one. If he knew who she was he also probably knew who John was and that wasn't looking promising.

The fog dissipated enough to reveal that creature's appearance: yellow almond-shaped eyes and skin of scale. The creature smirked seeing how afraid Roselyn was, she never saw such a creature before. She usually saw vampires werewolves Lycans but what was that?

He smirked and when Roselyn saw he had no teeth but a long sharp tongue Roselyn understood what he may be. A snake.

She now was deadly scared, she felt like screaming but no voice was coming out, her legs began to feel like collapsing and her knees were trembling.

"What is..." his tongue vibrated and his voice came out as a whistle when he crawled reaching Roselyn who jolted before running away trying to keep her gaze set on him to monitor his movements.

"What is a banshee doing here all alone?" He said, his eyes became even more shining and Roselyn shivered in terror.

"J-Joh-John w-will kill you if you harm me," Roselyn murmured, her voice chattered and broke.

But the snake creature didn't hesitate, it seemed like Roselyn's desperate threat didn't even make him blink.

"John is the King of Kratez," Roselyn screamed and her voice lowered as she clenched her fists and focused.

If nobody could defend her she could defend herself she was a supernatural creature too. The snake as soon as he perceived her movement speeded toward her and reached in a fraction of a second, his tongue brushed against her neck, it was dry and long. She kept focusing narrowing her eyes and the wind intensified, the fear pushed her to focus even more and a cascade of the water precipitated soaking both her and the snake's body. The creature jolted and backward allowing her to run afar and prepare another attack when two familiar red eyes appeared behind the snake.

It was John who groaned so loud that the earth trembled, his breath was heavy as he was so angry that his dark veins in his neck popped out, he revealed his long fangs and groaned once again. The snake turned around to scrutinize John and smirk threatening, "here he is."

The snake's gaze traveled back to Roselyn, "I was wondering however you would let such a delicacy wander alone in the night." He said as he speeded toward Roselyn but John reached his wife faster than the snake and pushed Roselyn afar to stop the snake from caught her and throw him away.

"As you can see she is not alone." John rectified. Roselyn turned around as she searched for the faster escape out but then she changed her mind, she couldn't let John alone. Even if he was so powerful, she couldn't do that as he never thought twice before siding with her.

"What are you waiting for?" John whispered to her puzzled and furious that she was still there when she should have escaped.

"I am not leaving you," Roselyn whispered but and the odd creature exploded in a laugh, Roselyn cringed at the sight of his mouth dried and lacking teeth.

"Love. Defending each other and burning in passion. I wonder how it feels..." the snake groaned and his grown having Roselyn unconsciously take a step backward.

"I mean, I wonder how it feels to be so weak." he finished his statement.

"You should know since you're weak yourself to try to attack a woman alone in a wood," John replied furiously.

"I have waited for this for a long time, dear Johnatan." the snake said kneeling down and crawling toward John, his skin became even more squamosa and it slowly turned of green yellowish color as he shaped into a snake.

His human form disappeared and he turned into a huge snake. Roselyn felt like screaming but she swallowed down the terror as her face became paler.

John turned around to glower at her, "I can feel your fear, go away!! Demons like him feed on the fear and terror." John said glancing at Roselyn who seemed unable to react or to reply.

The creature's body grew even more having Roselyn deduce John may be right, that creature was using Roselyn's fear to grow.
