The Alpha Prince And His Silver Lone Wolf - Chapter 496

[-In the Aquarium Theater-]

“How sure are you that she has not completed her transformation and her evolution yet?” Lucas asked Selene.

They were standing few meters away from Melody, Selene explained to Lucas.

“Once her legs transform into a pelvic tail and her fins emerges, that’s the sign she is almost complete. The last part of her transformation is feeding on to humans. That’s why she surrounded herself with humans …”

“For her to feed on.”

“So, how will we stop her?” Lucas wondered.

“To remove her from the water. It will halt the process of her transformation and evolution.” Selene further explained to her older brother.

…

While the two discuss about their priorities and what they have to accomplish.

Melody understood what Selene and Lucas came for.

It was too late for Selene and Lucas to realize that the theater had improvised speaker to amplify the sound effects.

When Melody began using her enchanted voice through the siren song.

Selene’s barrier could not prevent the amplified sound waves to penetrate through it.

“LUCAS!”

Her older brother looked defeated.

His defenses were lowered and his expression became apparent that he has fallen victim to the siren song.

“LUCAS!”

Immediately, Selene released powerful flames combined with energy blasts to break the glass of the aquarium.

To remove Melody from the water.

But the flame blasts were extinguished through Melody’s powerful voice.

Then she gave out a command to the humans, including Lucas, to be her shield against Selene.

This forced Selene to stop her attacks.

Standing in front of the glass of the huge aquarium were the humans and Lucas.

Using them as Melody’s shield.

Right at the moment when Melody stopped singing, she made the humans stay still in their positions.

She thought things were already going on her way.

Until Lucas turned around and smashed the glass combined with his full strength and explosive ability.

It took Melody by surprise.

Not expecting Lucas to go against her will.

…

Water instantly fell out of the aquarium.

Including Melody who was forced out of the water.

But Lucas caught her just in time.

Without completing her transformation, she cannot perform the feeding ceremony which was important in her evolution.

…

Feeling defeated, Melody cried for desperation.

A wail and shrieking siren’s voice could be heard.

The humans covered their ears in pain.

But Lucas remained unaffected.

Even Selene was proved to be unaffected as well.

“Enough … Melody!”

Selene revealed to Melody while she was on the arms of Lucas.

“I casted a protective spell on our ear plugs because we know we will be against your powerful voice. So, Lucas had to pretend as if he fell to the enchantment of your voice. In order for him to get close and remove you from the water.”

Thus, defeat has been concluded for Melody. She felt powerless without being in the water and her voice was completely harmless to the siblings.

Tears of frustration were witnessed by the two.

Seeing Melody breakdown to her tears for wanting to evolve desperately as a matured siren.

Lucas wanted to help her but he has no choice.

Her evolution will risk the safety of the innocent ones.

“Selene… what will happen now … that we stopped her evolution?” Lucas asked his younger sister.

…

His younger sister could not answer directly.

“Why are you looking that way?” Lucas was confused.

Melody became weaker at the hands of Lucas.

She held Lucas’ face as if it will be her last time to see Lucas.

Tears fell before she lost consciousness.

“Melody?”

Lucas began to panic.

Selene remained silent.

Thinking of her next move.

“What’s happening, Selene? You did not mention to me this part of the plan. You told me she will be okay after we remove her from the water. That it would stop the process of her transformation.”

“TELL ME! WHAT’S HAPPENING?!?!”

“SELENE!”

“ANSWER ME!”

“SPEAK, GOD DAMN IT!”

…

Selene gathered all her strength in telling her older brother.

“She will die if she doesn’t evolve into her matured form.”

…

The world of Lucas was shattered at the thought of Melody dying.

“YOU TRICKED ME! YOU …”

Panic ensued.

Instead of getting angry at Selene, Lucas had to find a way to save Melody.

“MELODY! HANG ON … I WILL SAVE YOU!”

But time wasn’t enough.

Lucas looked at Selene with contempt.

For leaving out an import piece of information.

“This is why I didn’t tell you!” Selene explained herself.

Anger and panic were mixed within Lucas emotions.

…

Before Lucas could utter another word and express his anger.

Selene revealed another piece of information.

“Though, I can save her!” Selene told Lucas.

…

Within seconds, at the mention of Selene that she could save Melody.

“THEN WHY DON’T YOU DO IT NOW? WE ARE WASTING TIME! SAVE HER! QUICK!” Lucas demanded from Selene.

“If I do it… I don’t know if I will make it alive or … intact without becoming dark.” Selene made it clear to her brother.

…

“I thought she was like your sister. And you are hesitating to save her? You should do it in a heartbeat! Without any hesitations!” Lucas insensitively conveyed his thoughts to Selene.

“It’s not that simple! There are many lives at stake if I go dark. One life isn’t worth the risk of many innocent ones.” Selene feared for another unwanted death and casualties once she taps on her dark powers.

…

“DO IT FOR ME! I WILL DIE WITHOUT HER!”

“That’s unfair! You should know better how much I want to save her. And how important you both to me. But I do not want to risk the lives of many just for my selfish ways. I have learned my lesson already.”

Lucas turned his direction to his dying mate.

“IF MELODY DIES! CONSIDER ME GONE! EXPECT TO LOSE ANOTHER LOVED ONE. BECAUSE I WILL NO LONGER BE YOUR BROTHER IF MELODY DIES!”

Selene realized at that moment.

She will not only lose Melody but her older brother as well.

…

“Okay… I will save her! If ever I turn dark … will you pierce this dagger to my heart before I completely go dark?”

“Promise me… not to let me go dark again! Luke?” Selene requested from her older brother.

After handing over the dagger to her older brother.

Lucas realized what he just asked from his younger sister.

Demanding something she could not refuse.

In exchange of uncertain outcome.

A possible death of his own sister and the risk of putting innocent lives in danger.

Just for the survival of one life.

“I will begin!” Selene uttered while kneeling next to Melody’s body.
