Chapter 17
Zadei gave a relieved sigh as he approached the ornate door. He hoped that this was the room that the guard, Dern, had told them about. Unfortunately, they had nearly run into a couple of the palace guards, and Dern had left to distract them. It was just Zadei and Gerumu now (they had left the soldiers outside in order to decrease their chances of being spotted).
The Emperor had to admit that he hoped they ran into that man again before leaving. If he hadnt opened the hidden door to the palace they would never have made it inside.
Zadei advanced towards the door feeling more excited than he had since this trip had begun. He gripped the small key in his hand tightly. According to the guard, Tetius was just beyond this door.
Gerumu stepped forward, motioning for Zadei to step behind him as he opened the door. The general entered the room first, but Zadei didnt have the patience to wait for the all clear sign. He hurried inside glancing around frantically to locate Tetius.
The winged man was nowhere in sight.
Zadei wanted to scream. Why wasnt his angel here? This was the right room wasnt it? Zadei was ready to turn and storm back down the hallway and into the next room when he was stopped by Gerumu. The man pointed to one side of the room then the other, not saying a word.
Zadei looked where indicated, noticing that there were doors on all four walls. Maybe Tetius was in one of those rooms. Zadei nodded to Gerumu and pointed to the back door, indicating that he would check that room. The general nodded and moved towards the one on the left.
It was as Zadei moved across the room that he noticed the birdcage. To be honest, he wasnt certain how he had managed to miss it in the first place. It was enormous, and situated in the very center of the room. The man stopped to stare at the horrible thing. Had his angel been kept inside of that awful cage? Like some sort of pet on display?
With a furious snarl Zadei marched towards the door. He wanted to find Tetius, now. He wanted to get the younger man as far away from here as possible, as quickly as possible. He threw the door open and froze in horror at the sight before him.
The room seemed to be some sort of study. There was a large, ornate desk and several bookcases, but that wasnt what had shocked Zadei.
Tetius. HIS Tetius was laying on his back on the desk, Koloss bent over his form and thrusting into him harshly. The pale body was covered in bruises and welts, blood dripping slowly from some of the larger marks. A hand was on Tetius neck, forcing his head back over the edge of the wood. The winged man was gasping weakly for breath and crying, tears running into his hair line.
A shout from Koloss woke Zadei from his trance and he raised his eyes to the king. The man was staring straight at him with a smug look on his face. Zadei felt sick. The man had been watching him while violating his angel. He didnt even seem to be surprised to see Zadei alive.
The Emperor snarled in fury, Koloss, you bastard!
The man straightened and pulled Tetius up with him. He shifted the winged man in front of himself and took a tight hold of his neck, treating the Emperor to a full view of his lovers body. It looked as if his angel had been thoroughly beaten. The pale body was trembling and the young man looked as if he were about to pass out.
Zadei moved forward in anger. He was going to tear Koloss limb from limb. The king took a step around the side of the desk, keeping Tetius in front of himself. Zadei took another step forward, working out in his head exactly how he was going to reach Koloss without hurting his lover.
He say the King reach for the desk but didnt realize until too late what was happening. He could only stare in horror at the ornate dagger hilt that protruded from Tetius abdomen.
The cruel laugh brought his attention back to the king. I will not let you have him back. If I cannot have his powers then no one can. Koloss dropped Tetius to the ground, aiming a sharp kick at the pale chest.
Zadei watched his angel fall. He was absolutely furious, his eyesight was tinted with red. He saw the Fire King aim another kick, this time at his angels face, and screamed in fury.
His body almost seemed to be moving on its own. He raised his hands in front of himself and watched in surprise as a small ball of fire flicked into existence between them. As he watched, the ball expanded. Soon it was so large that he could feel the flames licking at his palms.
He raised his eyes to the man before him and jerked in surprise. The king didnt seem to have noticed anything. In fact he hadnt seemed to have moved at all. Zadei wondered if perhaps the entire process had taken less time than he had thought. It didnt really matter at this point, he decided. He released the ball in Koloss direction with a furious shout.
It seemed to continue to grow in size as the ball speed towards the king. The man finally seemed to have noticed that something was going on and had glanced up. His eyes widened, and he tried to dodge to the side, but was too slow. The ball of fire caught him in the chest, spreading quickly to engulf the entire man in flames. He didnt even have the time to scream before he had been reduced to nothing more than a charred corpse.
Zadei was shocked. He hadnt known that he had any sort of power, let alone one so devastating. He stared at the horrible figure, that had once been a man, before shaking off his shock and rushing to his lovers side.
He dropped to his knees beside the winged man before pulling the injured figure into his arms. Those pale green eyes were open, staring into his own.
Zadei? Youre
all right? Youre here? The voice was shaking and weak. Zadei could see blood pooling on the ground and swore under his breath. Tetius was losing blood too quickly.
Teti! Stay quiet. You need to save your strength. He watched as those beautiful wings turned crimson, absorbing the spilled blood. Zadei didnt know what to do. He was at a complete loss.
He watched as Tetius tried to raise a shaky hand to touch Zadeis cheek. His strength gave out half way, but the Emperor caught his hand. He lifted the hand to his lips, kissing it softly.
Tetius gave a small smile, closing his eyes. Zadei
I love you. The voice was so faint that Zadei could barley hear it. He was about to reply when he noticed that the hand in his had gone limp.
No! No! Teti, no! Zadei shook the pale body gently. Open your eyes. Teti, please! Dont do this. I love you. He continued to shake his lover, noticing that there were tears rolling down the bruised face. It took him a moment to realize that the tears were his own, falling onto his angels skin. He couldnt remember the last time he had cried. In fact, he couldnt remember if he had ever cried before.
Zadei!
The Emperor didnt even look up as Gerumu burst into the room, scanning for what ever threat was facing him. When his eyes fell on the two of them he lowered his sword. He advanced quickly, moving to assist his friend, sparing a brief glance for the burned remains of the Fire King.
Zadei continued to stare at his angel. He kept his eyes on the pale, bruised chest, watching closely for every tiny breath. There had to be something that could be done. Something to save his angels life.
My Lord?
The unknown voice startled Zadei enough to cause him to jerk his head up. He turned to the intruder, only to find that it was a young woman. She was bowing respectfully, waiting for his response. Slightly confused, he told her to speak.
My Lord, I am a healer. Tetius is not so far gone that I can not save him. The woman's voice was gentle, reminding Zadei of his lovers. He nodded in agreement, deciding to ignore, for now, the fact that this woman seemed to know his angel.
He watched her closely as she moved to kneel by Tetius side and lay her hand on the young mans chest. Zadei resisted the urge to snarl at her as she ordered him to take hold of the dagger's hilt. He did so and pulled slowly, careful not to further injure Tetius. He was slightly alarmed at the increased flow of blood, but it began to slow almost immediately. Before his eyes, he could see the horrible wound knitting itself together. He had to admit that he was impressed. This young woman was a powerful healer, much stronger that the healers of his own palace.
Sooner than he could have hoped, Tetius was laying, perfectly healed, in his arms. Leaning down, he pressed a gentle kiss against the pale forehead.
My Lord? You are moving stiffly. If you wish it I can heal you as well. I just require a little time to regain my strength.
Zadei raised his head, noticing that Gerumu had moved behind the woman and was watching her closely. Who are you? Why do you keep calling me Lord? And why arent you upset by that? Zadei pointed to the charred body on the floor beside them before returning his hand to its place on Tetius waist.
The woman turned to look where he indicated briefly before turning back. You have killed King Koloss. He was a corrupt and cruel man who deserved nothing better. Your powers are impressive and you obviously have a Fire ancestor. That is why I call you Lord. You are our new king. And my name is Karina.
Zadei stared at her in surprise. Could it really be as easy as that? He broke into the palace, killed the king, and now he was the one in charge? Of course he had done the same to gain control of the Ice Realm, though it had at least been an honorable duel in that instance.
Who would have thought that having a Fire Realm citizen for a father and a Ice Realm mother would have worked out in his favour? When he was young, it had been a reason for the other children in his village to tease him. Though that too had been useful to him. It had driven him to be as strong as he possibly could.
Of course, now was not the time to be dealing with having to run yet another realm. Both he and Tetius would need time to rest, and it would probably be best to do so in their home. Perhaps he would be able to find someone to watching over things here for the time being. That Dern person had seemed reliable, maybe he would be able to run things until Zadei could come back.
As soft groan from the figure in his arms broke through his thoughts. He glanced down quickly to find that Tetius eyes were flickering open. Oh, Zadei! It wasnt a dream. You really are here. His angels voice was soft and breathy, but Zadei could still make out what he had said.
A trembling hand was raised to brush lightly against the mans cheeks. Zadei? Were you crying?
The man knew that if it had been any other time, he would have been embarrassed. At the moment he just couldnt seem to care. He finally had Tetius back and safe in his arms. It doesnt matter now. Im just glad that you are all right.
Tetius gave him a weak smile, still stroking his fingers against the Emperors cheek. Zadei? Can we go home now?
The man nodded. Of course we can. He watched as Tetius smiled once more, before those pale eyes closed, and his angel was asleep once more.
He quickly explained to the healer that he would be back as soon as possible to take over, but until that time he wanted Dern to be in charge. He had barely given her the time to nod in understanding before he was ordering Gerumu to get ready to move out.
Cradling the winged man against his chest, Zadei stood carefully. His chest wound ached dully, but it was nothing that he couldnt bear. He wasnt going to let his lover go again until they had reached their home. Even then, he knew that he wouldnt be letting the pale angel out of his sight for even a moment for a very long time.
