Azgaroth seeing how she stubbornly refused to leave the temple let out an exasperated sigh,he looked at her bowed head,he noticed something on her forehead.It a mark of light golden rose, it's almost invisible if only it is not glowing lightly.Seeing this he knew that he had heard something about a lady with a rose on her forehead but,he couldn't remember as his memory is still in a slumber after waking up from centuries sleep.
"Get up."he said his voice deprived of any warmth.he started walking towards the route the creature disappeared in.Lyra in fear ran to him,her hand unconsciously wrapped one of his finger.
"Get your filthy hands off me,slave.''
He said coldly.Lyra felt a pang on her chest when he called her slave,she doesn't know why it hurt so much but it still hurts,she let her hand slip out of his finger.Azgaroth knew that by calling her slave he hurt her feelings,but wasn't that what she is.
Lyra's ear perked up as she heard a bone chilling growl.
"D....did..did you hear that."she stammered as unconsciously invaded Azgaroth's space.Azgaroth heard the growl but it is so far away from where they are,so how did she hear it.
Lyra felt her back hit the tree behind with a force she couldn't comprehend.
"What are you?." He asked his voice almost a growl.
"I don't know what you are talking about"Lyra replied
"Don't make me repeat myself,slave." He asked his hot breath sprayed on her face.
"I swear i don't know what i am."Lyra replied truthfully not wanting to lose her life, even though her life is already miserable.
Azgaroth's eyes dissected her face for any lies,but it gave nothing out, giving her one last look he walked off leaving her behind.
Azgaroth walked for a long distance without Lyra behind him, even though he felt guilty for leaving her out there alone for the creatures to feed on ,his heart couldn't rest at the thought of Lyra being out there.He walked back to where he left her but she wasn't there.His nose flared upon perceiving the presence of another being that wasn't human,he muttered one word almost in a growl,
"Grievers"
His jaws clenched tightly,his eyes took the colours of midnight black with fire brimming in the middle of his eyes.He trailed the smell to the back of the temple where it stopped.He looked around but saw no one,he was sure that the creture didn't go any further.
"Looking for this.."It said from the shadows and in a low raspy voice.Azgaroth had no problem in seeing at night,his eye sight enchances in the dark .
"Let her go"He snarled.
"And why will i let my meal go?it asked testing Azgaroth's Patience.
"You wouldn't want this to end badly,now let her go."He said his voice reverberating with authority.
"I do want it to end badly, wouldn't mind having two meat on my table."it said going round the space.Lyra silently continued shedding tears.
*****FLASHBACK*****
Lyra looked at Azgaroth's retreating figure,seeing that he wasn't changing his mind,she decided to go back alone even as the growls she hear made her hairs stand erect and goosebumps formed on her skin,she tried her best not be afraid but it wasn't Long when she heard footsteps behind her,she turned to know who it is but it disapeared in the shadows.
"Is this the end?"she asked herself as she slowly turned to continue her journey and there stood a shadowy figure cloaked in the night shadows.It's face was masked by the shadow of the tree behind .she turned to make an excape but it was of no use as was rooted to ground by night creature.
