The royal carriage of Anedo rode towards the kingdom of Honile. Lilia glanced at the mask in her hand, thank goodness her face would be covered in one, she doesn't want people staring at her like they do whenever she goes to a social gathering like this. The journey to Honile took only an hour and soon, the royal horses were walking into the palace as other royal carriages were parked.The sound of music could be heard loudly, Lilia turned to her parents who looked satisfied at the place of this. Getting towards the huge palace door, Lilia quickly wore her mask. A man stood at the entrance and as soon as he saw king Arthur approaching, he bowed in respect and loudly announced his name. Kings, Queens, noble men and women turned to look at the royal family who walked in, their heads bowed in respect as King Arthur and his family proceeded into the throne room that was filled with lots of people. King Fabian stood at a spot and watched King Arthur with hatred burning in his eyes. The p
Lilia gazed at the sky with an angry look. The garden was calm and far away from the hall, she was grateful for that because she didn't hear the sound of the music. The realization of Adolphus dancing sweetly with the blonde princess from a kingdom she doesn't want to know about. Lilia bit her lower lip as she tried to hold the anger growing in her but the more it flashed through her mind, the more she groaned in anger as she rolled her eyes.Well, she shouldn't feel jealous, Adolphus is just her friend, a friend who she has shared a compassionate kiss with and a friend whom she had her first kiss with. She is sure that he is enjoying the blonde company, her long lashes and annoying giggles.Lilia glanced down at the mask in her hand, she should probably stay here till the ball is over, the night was cold but gentle on her skin, lonely,she inhaled deeply and stared at the sky.Adolphus glanced at the blonde next to him, he managed to put on a smile but her laughs and annoying talks b
Queen Mena stood apart, her eyes fixed on the crowd. A group of queens greeted and passed her, their eyes admiring her beauty which was indeed splendid. A servant came closer to her, offered her a drink which she rejected, her sharp eyes fixed on the guests who danced happily with their partners. She glanced at the exit door, turned to her husband who happily sat with kings as they discussed. She looked away from humans and began to head towards the exit door, her mind away from the people surrounding her.Queen Mena got to the exit, she found a familiar figure standing a few feets to the tall water fountain. Elegantly, she walked towards the figure, her eyes fixed on the fountain as she held a hard look on her face."Is it done?" She asked with a stern voice, her look violent and evil as she slowly turned to King Fabian who stood beside her. An evil grin appeared on King Fabian's lips, he looked at the beautiful queen whose heart was filled with nothing but pure evil, "Yes, it is,
Dust rose up in the sky as the horse galloped faster as it could. Mena gazed around, she wore a black cloak which was placed over her head to disguise her face. No one must see her and staying hidden would be the best to avoid suspicious looks from people. She galloped towards the kingdom of Sunan, her sharp blue eyes fixed to the direction where she went, the thought of king Fabian holding her brought sparks to her body and she couldn't wait to have him around her. To her, her husband, King Arthur isn't compared to king Fabian who is her secret lover and making him get what she wants is her priority.The horse got to the gate and immediately the soldiers sighted her coming, the gate of the kingdom flung open and she rode in, the cloak still over her head to disguise herself. She galloped towards the palace as the sun shone brightly on her beautiful skin.She got into the palace in no time, walked into it and strolled towards King Fabian's chamber, she knew her ways around the palace
Hundreds of soldiers rode faster as they headed towards the kingdom of Sunan as a great dust rose as they galloped on their horses. They got closer to the kingdom gate and at the sight of the approaching soldiers, the soldiers guarding the gate swiftly opened it and watched them as they rode in, their faces firm and serious as there was no sign of friendliness in their eyes. They got towards the palace and found king Fabian along with Prince Philip waiting patiently for them at the palace courtyard. The soldiers got down from their horses with swords in their hands as they waited for the king to order them. King Fabian stared at them with harsh eyes, he studied each soldier one after the other as he walked around the large courtyard inspecting each soldier. These were the soldiers sent to him by the sixth kingdom, all kings were in support of him invading the kingdom of Anedo due to his promise which is just his bait to get what he wants. King Fabian walked back to his former posi
A cold wind blew violently as trees were shoved out of their roots and flew around, hitting the ground and pieces into several pieces.Lilia looked around with confused eyes, she couldn't understand where she was, no matter how hard the trees were uprooted by the strong wind. As they got close to her, a powerful power broke them into several pieces, pieces flew everywhere accompanied by a tremendous earthquake that didn't affect Lilia. Lilia strolled deep, a deep dark fog overwhelmed her and she couldn't see a thing but her instincts guided her, she kept on walking not knowing where she was or how she got there, everything stood like a mystery to her, nothing else was heard except her breathing.Suddenly, Lilia heard a faint sound behind her, her hearing was so sharp that she could hear it quickly and swiftly. She turned back but still thick darkness surrounded her."Who are you?" She cried out in a loud tone, her throat ached as she scareamed. Her sharp eyes flickered around the dar
The woods were silent and the only thing Lilia could hear was the rustling sound of leaves. She walked closer towards the two women whose eyes pierced on each other.Avena Adolphus' mother gently pulled down the cloak from her head, her long black hair revealed but her eyes were so stern and filled with concern."Mother" she acknowledged with a slight bow. The older woman stared at her for a long time, she had so much evil in her eyes and her right hand held a broom as black as her gown. Her hair was also black just like her daughter but there was a bit of grey at the side which represented her old age. "You will give birth to the child present in your womb in the next full moon, is your husband aware of this?" The older woman asked, her voice was as harsh and hard as her facial expression.Avena glanced at her stomach, she placed her hand on it and gently rubbed it. With worried eyes, she looked up at her mother, her eyes held words that her mouth couldn't proceed out, "No mother" s
Adolphus stared at Lilia's lifeless body, panic in his eyes. He glanced at the open wound in her stomach where she was stabbed, with pain, he cursed himself for not being there on time. With blurg eyes, he twisted his fist in anger, "No!" He screamed and threw a strong blow on a table nearby which fell into pieces by his uproar.Panting, he glanced back at Lilia who lay still , it's been two days since her attack and not even a part of her body moved, she wasn't even breathing and the thought of losing her shattered his heart. He won't be able to forgive himself if she dies, he will prefer to go with her because right now, he realized how attached his heart is to this human, a lady he fell in love with at first sight but the anger in him prevented him from realizing it from the beginning. With his gaze on her, He sat beside her with eyes welled up in tears. He just can't live without her, his heart was breaking and he wished she could open the ocean eyes of hers he wanted to dive in
