( Hadrian's pov)
  " There's no way, we'll get past that force field," Zuka said frustratingly, Pacing the room.
   "There has to be a way" dad answered from beside me who was sitting in a wheelchair because I was still weak and mostly because everyone insisted saying they don't want me to get worse.
     I could only get worse if anything happens to Luna.
   I know , maybe we fell in love too quick , nobody expects me to love her this , even I didn't expect me to love her honestly , beside the mate bond . She is my first friend, the only one who cared enough to ask , the only one who saw the hidden tears and pain in my eyes . I fell in love , I have fallen in love and it would be a shame to sit in a wheelchair and pretend she was taken to some paradise , when indeed she is suffering as the days goes by . Our love wasn't a love at first sight , I never believed in that anyways , what people called love at first sight I called lust at first sight ,  I didn't love Luna at first sight , no , infact I hated her guts , she was so nosy , and annoyingly curious , but her curiosity broke me , how could someone want to know me.
It was unbelievable .
And so I will so everything to get her back , because I also wanted to know more , about her. I want to know everything about her , everything , like why she never lets her hair down , when she looked much more with it that way than in a ponytail , as silly as it sounds , I want to know. I want to know every single little things.
I want to love her slowly.
  "Maybe there is a way " Darren said grimly. He was finally able to walk and was on fully recovered . Zuka made sure of that. Love really makes one responsible .
  I perked at what he said ,
" And what could that be ?" I asked , everyone in the room were now attentive and stood at ease to listen.
   " The only reason the force field could be this strong , is if it was made from the makers blood ..." ,
  " Is that possible ?" I cut him off asking,
    " Yes it is , but only for those who practice dark magic , we all know Rhea isn't a pure blood , and is currently practicing shadow magic , the shadows creates strong force field but only at the essence of your blood " he paused and then summoned a book , while he was going through the book , I was staring at the big screen in front of us which has the landscape of Rhea's empire , we were in the research room , where all investigations were carried out.
How do we get passed a Force field made by blood ? , We could try concentrating all her magic into one but it wouldn't budge , we needed something much stronger .
" Blood !!" Storm called out , stepping out of the pillar he was leaning on ,
  
   " We need blood , not just any blood , but the blood that carries the DNA of the maker " he explained
   " How sure are you that this will work ? " Dad asked
    " I don't know , I'm not really sure , but that's the only way that makes sense right now , think about it , if nothing else can beat the makers blood that means only the makers blood can beat itself , but we all know there's no way , we'll reach the makers blood , but we can reach people who has the makers blood stream ." He explained more , adjusting his glasses that looked like it was about to fall off .
    " So that means .... " Zuka thought out loud ,
     " Yes , either if you has to bring your blood , I think we not only need the blood , but need to make a portion too , I'll do the research , this is a strong lead " , Darren concurred .
Zuka and I looked at each other , both thinking the same thing , when we both said in sync,
" Take mine !"
" What are you crazy Hades , you have to recover , we can't let you waste more energy " Zuka snapped,
   " I've got enough energy as it is , you can't possibly expect me to allow you do it " I snapped back angrily , I was getting frustrated by her argument , is should be the one doing it , it's my Luna who's out there .
  " Hades please heal " Zuka said crouching down to be at my level , so she could look me in the eyes , I could see the sincere concern in her eyes and then I broke,
  " I am healing , I can't just sit down and do nothing " I mumbled
  " You're not doing nothing , you're healing, you're being strong for Luna , you seriously don't wanna die before we get to rescue her , do you ? " She asked
  I shook my head in response , tears stinking my eyes , but I was blinking them back in , I was so not going to cry in front of everyone ,
   " Hadrian , I know you fear for her , I know you think no one cares about her , but we do son " dad said placing his hands on my shoulder ,
    " And we'll do everything we can to get her back " Darren chirped in ,
   " And no offense in saying this , but we're also gonna give Rhea a reason to wish she never dared to touch one of us " Storm said grimly, irked up.
  " Let me do this Lil bro , I'm not doing it for you , pothead , I'm doing it for Luna " Zuka said let out a light chuckle with a smirk .
   " How many times must I tell you Zuka , stop calling me that " I mumbled .
  " It's cute , and I'm never gonna stop bugging you, only I can do that " she said with that same mischievous smile , she stood to her feet , touched Darren's shoulder,
" Let's go draw some blood " she said vanishing with Darren , I sighed on my sit , I was really tired of this chair , it feels like I've been sitting on it for years ,
  " I need tea " dad said , teleporting out of the room.
  It was just storm and I , I cleared my throat , I've been really shitty to Storm when all along he meant well , I honestly didn't want to pass my aggression and frustration to him.
  " Ehmm Storm ?" , I called
   "Mhm" he answered
   " Can't believe I'm saying this , but I'm really sorry , I've been a huge jerk and... " He cut me off with a pat in my shoulder .
  " It's cool man , need help back to your room ? " He asked
   " Nah , I'm good , thanks "
  " Okay then "he teleported out too, I was about to teleport when I felt a sharp sting on my neck , I pressed my right hand on the spot suppressing a scream of pain .
There was only one thought that rang in my mind .
  What are they doing to her ?.
......
Crying now 😭
