Chapter 109 - Destined To Protect



The seal on Fleur\'s hand had taken on the colors of a tree. There were a total of thirty leaves that adorned the tree. The glowing leaf on her hand was somewhere around the middle of the tree. Whenever it glowed, that part of her hand throbbed. 

Howard and Fleur left the palace and returned home. 

​​

Isidorus had asked her to take some forces with her to protect Adrianna. However, she didn\'t know anyone. She thought she would ask her friends, but Howard said, "Fleur, the army is already ready. They are waiting for you to depart. Isidorus has always been reserving that army for this day. The fact that I took you over there to meet Isidorus was to indicate to Isidorus that the queen has been found."

"Father, do you mean that you have always known that I would be chosen to protect the queen?" she asked, amused at the turn of events. 

"Yes, you are destined to protect her with your life," said Howard. He loved his daughter a lot and had always lived in fear that the task that had been assigned to her may cost her life. But those were the ways of the wizard kingdom. He had dreaded the day when Isidorus would summon her. With a brave face, he had taken her to see Isidorus. From this moment on, Fleur\'s life was about to change. 

He knew that it was a dangerous task, but Isidorus had marked Fleur for this mission the day she was born. He looked at Fleur and said with affection, "Fleur, Isidorus chose you for this mission the day you were born. This is your destiny." 

Fleur\'s eyes widened with excitement. Howard smiled, and continued, "If you need my help, just summon me. Okay?" He didn\'t want to frighten her too much about the kind of mission she was about to embark on. 

"Father, I am eagerly awaiting to go," she said enthusiastically. 

Howard laughed at his naïve daughter and said, "Let\'s have lunch together. You can leave after that." 

After lunch, Fleur bade goodbye to all of her family members and left for the third level. The army had already gathered there and were waiting for Fleur to lead them to the outside world. Fleur had never left the wizard kingdom before and the fact that she had to lead these witches and wizards outside the kingdom filled her with anxiety, fear and exhilaration. While some of the witches and wizards in this army seemed to be younger than her, most of them were older then her and this is what she found to be the most confusing. Was she capable of leading them? They were her seniors and they were more experienced than her. What was Isidorus thinking when he assigned her to lead them? 

Suddenly, she felt a pain in her hand. The leaf glowed. She heard a whisper in her head, "That leaf is you Fleur. I have my always had my eye on you. Don\'t doubt yourself. Take them out of this place and guard the queen." 

Fleur gasped. That was Isidorus speaking. Without waiting for a minute, she flew into the air on her broom with her army following her. They must have flown for a few miles when Fleur flicked her fingers and created a portal. She entered it and all the others followed her. They traveled to the west side of the forest and reached the Blue Moon Pack territory within the next two hours. She communicated to all of them that they were to hide themselves under the cloak of invisibility as they neared the territory; it was already evening and she didn\'t want to draw attention. 

By the time she hit the ground, she was alone. As she walked, she packed her broom in a bag and quickly swished her hands over her body from head to waist to change her appearance. Instead of her cloak, she was now wearing a mini-skirt and a tight blouse with hair tied in a pony. She looked like a rebellious teenager. She didn\'t realize that this had all been done in only a few seconds. Suddenly, she bumped into someone and fell down on the grass over him. 

She got up, brushing her clothes with her hands. Then, she looked at the man she had bumped into. He looked irritated, but the moment he saw Fleur, he felt as though he had gone weak in the knees. Liam was dumbfounded. He blinked a few times to see the golden haired girl staring his face. "Hi!"

"Hmph!" She made a face. "Don\'t you know how to walk," she accused. 

 "No, I don\'t. I am sorry. I will be more careful now," said Liam mesmerized by the girl in front of him. She looked like an angel. 

"I am Liam," he said, softly getting up from the grass. 

"So?" She shrugged and started to leave.

"I haven\'t seen you around. Are you new?" he asked.

"It is none of your concern," she replied. 

"This is Blue Moon Pack\'s territory. You cannot just enter this territory without permission," he said in order to stop her. He felt as though he was being chained to her. What was this attraction?

She narrowed her eyes. She didn\'t want to draw attention. "I am Fleur, and I am here to meet Ed." 

"Oh! I know where he stays. Let me take you there," Liam offered. He was supposed to be meeting with the architect to talk about Keisha\'s mini-palace as ordered by his queen, when this beautiful accident happened. 

She didn\'t know how, but she had stopped right in front of Ed\'s house - the house she was supposed to report at. She knew Uncle Ed from a long time ago. 

She mentally berated the man in front of her, but sweetly said, "Sure." It was barely 50 meters from where she had met Liam, but Liam was only too happy to accompany her. 

They walked quietly. Fleur knocked on the door when they arrived. When Ed opened the door, he couldn\'t stop laughing. Fleur looked ridiculous. But Liam growled at him. His expressions were that of a wolf who had imprinted. Ed was stunned. Could it be possible? This would be the most absurd combination. He could have never imagined Liam and Fleur together. Fleur was so intelligent and Liam was no match for her. Did she even know that he had imprinted on her? 

"Where is Adrianna?" asked Fleur without wasting time.
