Chapter 439 I Thought We Were A Team (Maddox Spade)

I was horrified at what was going on. I looked at Zane and then turned around to look back at the others. Huia, the

one who was leading the crowd, pointed at Zane.

“Our King is here. All hail the man from hell,” her loud scream deafened me while the others began to bow down

for Zane. I have never felt so uneasy before. Their harsh gazes falling on Zane’s face were making me anxious. He

was my brother, and I would never let them take him away from me. I will protect him, even if it means I have to

die in the end.

“Zane! Don’t listen to them,” I turned to my brother and held his hand, saying, “Look at me; it doesn’t matter what

they say. You are not the bad guy here. We will deal with this once we leave. Let’s go.”

I tried to drag him around, but he looked frozen. His eyes were sticking to the crowd as he watched them bow down

to him.

“Zane!” I once again yelled his name, and this time I cupped his face to make him look at me instead.

He finally diverted his gaze from them and looked my way.

“Listen to me, okay? They can’t make you a bad person,” I said, and Zane shook his head. I wouldn’t let him stay

behind and get manipulated by them.

“But they are saying I am the man from hell,” he whispered, not really displaying much emotion.

“Well, it doesn’t matter. They can very well be lying,” I said, and I pointed at Huia. “remember her? She is our

biggest enemy. All she wants is for us to turn against each other. Maybe that’s who Gwen is working for. Mykel was

working for her,” I began to give him excuses to help him not get too consumed by their claims.

“Remember, she told Dream she was the mistress of doomsday? She lies,” I added.

“We are not lying. In front of us stands our king. He is not the one who gets to decide. He has been chosen

already,” Huia stepped up to have a word directly with us this time. I wondered why we hadn’t killed her since we

had a chance. Look at her now. She was lying to Zane to make him feel some sort of way about himself.

“Don’t tell me you believed you were the one they were bowing for,” Huia scoffed, but it made me even more

curious. I remember she told Zane he was the useless one. She loves to play with our minds and makes us feel

useless or important whenever she wants to.

“I don’t believe you. If anyone has to be a dark entity, it must be me,” I said with confidence. 

“What makes you say that?” Huia smirked, tilting her head, and wanted me to say it out loud. I was guilty of it, but I

didn’t hesitate to say it loudly because it would save my brother from getting convinced by her.

“Because as a child, I was fed a weredragon baby I didn’t choose to be this way, but unfortunately, I became the

dark one after eating another child,” I explained, looking around to see the reaction.

These people in black clothes were some of the old pack members. Some of them were criminals. In fact, they

were from all around the world. But the fact that Huia has gathered to become their king so that she can use his

power and strength against his own brothers is ridiculous.

We brothers might be fighting today, but we will never see each other as enemies. In fact, I am sure Gwen created

all this ruckus between us brothers for a reason. And now it is Huia’s turn to play her part and separate Zane from

us.

“Oh, such a fool you are,” Huia’s response was not something I had expected. She rolled her eyes and shook her

head in disapproval.

“This is the truth,” I claimed, making sure my brother stayed behind me. 1 didn’t want their dirty eyes to fall on

him.

He was too innocent and emotional to understand these things.

“Maddox! you never ate the baby,” Huia said with blunt eye contact.

“What?” I frowned, “I know this because—,” I paused as she nodded, waiting for me to give her proof.

“I just know this, okay?” I said as I began to remember the things my mother used to say, “Mom said she had made

a big sacrifice for me when I was a child, and because of it, she felt remorseful.”

Finally, I gave her the big reason that made me believe, apart from the nightmare, that I was the child who was fed

the weredragon baby.

“Oh! That wasn’t the feeding of the weredragon. Her guilt was that when she was pregnant with you two, the

doctor told her that you were too weak and that if she didn’t make a decision about aborting you, the other baby

would suffer. Your mother was stubborn and thought she would be able to take care of both of you, so she refused

all the help. She decided to keep the baby,” she scoffed mischievously.

So, it was indeed true.

I never ate the weredragon baby. But it doesn’t matter. I will protect my brother at any cost.

“No!” 1 refused to believe her. She was so good at lying. Even when I knew it made sense. I had to refuse her

claims. She was trying to manipulate my brother and steal him away from ns.

“Zane! You don’t have to listen to her. Let’s go,” I said, and as I tried dragging him, he pulled me back and hugged

me tightly.

1 don’t know what it was about that hug, but it felt so special.

“Hey, I am here with you. We will go back, and everything will be back to normal,” I mumbled, waiting for him to

speak up.

But he was eerily silent and just hugging me tightly. It was only after a few seconds that 1 began to feel a sharp

pain in my stomach. It was as if I had been stabbed by something extremely sharp and painful.

“Ugh!” I let out a little groan and tried to pull away from him, but he didn’t let me go. I wanted to see what

happened to me. “Zane!” 1 complained in my mouth, trying to push him away, but he kept on wrapping his arms

around me and pulling me deeper and deeper into his body.
