The next day, Maddox could see the Volcano of Doom from afar and was happy he got there. He sped off to the volcano because he had little time left. In an hour, he got there. He started climbing, it wasn't as easy as he thought it would be, he could already feel the volcano getting ready to erupt in the next few hours. Maddox tried his best to keep climbing, as his arms were already hurting. This volcano was a very tall one, and it took the fastest wolves 30 minutes to climb. He got to the tip of the volcano and could feel it was boiling, he then uprooted a flower from it and began to slide down back. It was easier to slide down back, but he got bruises while doing that.
When Maddox got to the ground, he started running as fast as he could because he knew there's a possibility the larva catches up with him while running. Half an hour had passed, and he felt the ground shaking, he looked back and saw that the larva was out already and was overflowing, rushing towards him, destroying anything that was left. It was called the volcano of Doom because whenever it erupts, it destroys everything, that's why there's no living being there. Whoever is trapped, there is said to be doomed.
The larva had almost caught up with him when a giant crystal ball enveloped him.

Vivian went to Maddox's room and stared at Nisha who was sleeping peacefully, she moved closer to her and looked at her with contempt. Nisha's forehead was filled with sweat beads.
“You're here, sleeping peacefully when Maddox is out sacrificing his life for you, a mere slave. It's not even certain that he's alive.” Vivian said, looking at Nisha scornfully.
“I think it would be better if you leave this earth and sleep in peace in heaven or go to hell. Your choice, I don't care.” Vivian said.
She reached her hands towards her, intending to strangle her to death.
................
Maddox woke up in Grace's abode, he was baffled as he remembered the larva was about to catch up with him. He quickly remembered the flower and checked if it was safe with him, he confirmed it and was relieved. He stood up and went to the garden, where he saw grace making potions.
“Your eyes are a reflection of your questions, Maddox.” Grace said, without looking up at him. She was busy making potions.
“I don't understand why I'm here, and I know it's not a dream. Can you explain what happened?” Maddox asked.
“Someone sent me to get you out of there.” Grace said, chuckling.
“Someone?” Maddox was baffled because Grace was more like the top rank in this world. How possible could it have been to send her to do something?
“Yes, someone.” Grace said.
“Who?” Maddox asked with respect.
“That, I cannot tell you, Maddox. You're awake now, shouldn't you get the flower to whom it's meant for.” Grace said.
Maddox was confused, but he had no time to waste, so he left immediately.
................
As Vivian's hands touched Nisha's neck, she was thrown to the wall by an unseen force. Maddox came in and witnessed that, he rushed to Vivian.
“Are you okay? What happened!” He asked Vivian.
“I…I wanted to check up on her and noticed she was sweating. Maybe she was having a bad dream, then I touched her and I don't know what threw me away.” Vivian lied.
“I have to call the doctor. It might be one of the things he did.” Maddox stood up and went to his messenger.
The doctor came in after a while and ground the flower and gave her as medicine. Nisha coughed out, opened her eyes and looked at everyone as curiosity was written all over their faces, then she sat up.
“Ah…" She tested her voice.
She was so happy to hear her voice again. Furthermore, she thanked the doctor so much and cried tears of joy. Maddox felt a tingle of joy for the first time in years.
“I'll like to go for a walk.” Nisha said when the doctor and Vivian walked out.
“Yeah, Rogan, here's your cue.” Maddox said, and looked at him in a way to remind him of what they had discussed earlier.
Nisha was so happy to be outside again. She felt the breeze caress her skin and lightly blew her hair.
“I see you're so happy to be out again.” Rogan said.
“More than you think. These few days were the first time I slept peacefully since I was captured.” Nisha said.
“I could tell. You look even better now.” Rogan said.
“Thank you. How was I revived the first time?” Nisha asked.
Rogan was happy that she finally asked the question. He was so eager to pose as the protagonist, just to get her attention and make his plans for her to fall for him easier.
“Are you sure you want to know about that?” Rogan asked.
“Yes, please.” Nisha said.
“The doctor said we would have to go on a journey to Hades to get a healing medicine from the garden of Trisen.” Rogan explained.
“Hades!” Nisha was shocked.
“Yes, Hades.” Rogan repeated.
“Oh my goodness. Who went on my behalf?” Nisha asked out of curiosity.
“Hmm… Is that necessary?” Rogan asked, cunningly.
“Yes, it is. I want to know the person who risked his or her life for me.” Nisha said.
“Hmmm…. I volunteered to go because Maddox wasn't really ready to risk any more warriors.” Rogan said.
“Really! Tch! He's always selfish and mean.” Nisha scoffed.
“He's still my friend, you know. And I couldn't allow you die just like that, so I volunteered. He tried to stop me because it was dangerous, but I assured him I'll come back alive, with the tips the doctor gave me.” Rogan continued.
“I'm so grateful… I'm so grateful, thank you so much for risking your life for me. I never expected it.” Nisha said.
“It's alright, you don't need to thank me. The doctor who treated you well should be thanked.” Rogan said.
“Still, the one who journeyed to Hades needs to be thanked.” Nisha insisted.
Yeah, sure. I'll receive it on his behalf. Rogan thought.
“Okay, if you say so.” Rogan said.
“So, which warrior went to the Volcano of Doom for me?” Nisha asked.
“Uhm… About that, I asked Maddox to allow me to go. I wasn't comfortable watching just one warrior to go, so I volunteered to go.” Rogan continued spinning his web of lies, as Nisha was touched by this and was the more disgusted with Maddox.
..........
Nisha got back to the room, she met Maddox staring outside the window, then she cleared her throat to make her presence known. Maddox turned around to hear her out.
“Please take me back to the underground cell.” Nisha said.
Maddox could not believe his ears.
“What! Did I hear wrong?” Maddox said, with his hands in his pockets.
“You heard right! I would rather not stay here with you anymore.” Nisha said abruptly.
Maddox walked towards her and held her shoulders.
“You don't get to decide where you stay, I get to decide that, and I decide that you're staying here in this room and that's final!” He barked.
Nisha noticed Maddox' dick was bulging and it looked so hard. She was scared that he was going to pound her again out of anger, but she was surprised when he went back to the window side and continued staring outside the window. She went back into her cage, still looking surprised.
“Out of that cage. You'll be sleeping on the bed with me for the main time.” Maddox said without looking at her.
Nisha was baffled and confused. She never expected this kind of treatment from him, but she had to obey.
...............
In Vivian's room, Rogan had visited again and asked for sex, which Vivian willingly accepted.
“I'm going to tie this cloth to your mouth so no one hears you moaning because you will moan so loud today.” Rogan said.
Vivian liked the confidence in his eyes and voice.
“Bring it on.” Vivian said, licking her lips seductively.
Rogan put off his clothes and was totally naked. He had a nice physique which could turn ladies on instantly. He urged Vivian to put off her clothes, which she did too, then he carried her with her legs enveloping his thighs. She felt his hard dick on her pussy, it was hot with sensations rushing down to his balls. They kissed and Rogan laid her on the bed.

Maddox turned around to face Nisha, still with his hands in his pockets.
“I think we'll have to visit the humans' world today.” Maddox said.
“We?” Nisha asked.
“Yes. Not going with a witch this time.” Maddox said.
