"Dungeon is not the right place for a woman like you. I have to go and search for my friends. But don't worry, I will come back for you" he promised honestly.Dina is moved by his words. She can see that he is loyal to his friends and he is a good man in general. She found his words about how the dungeon is not the right place for her so refreshing. Because Samael has threatened her more than once that he would throw her in the dungeon and he even almost locked her there when she tried to escape yet again. But when she begged him that she would never do that again, he changed his mind and brought her back to the palace.Dina shook her head to ward off the dark memories from her mind and gave a wobbly smile to Ojas to acknowledge his promise.Ojas on the other hand misunderstood her reaction. The sudden moisture in her eyes and how pale she became all of a sudden made him think that she didn't believe his words.Ojas took a step closer to Dina and took her palm in his rough ones."Dina
In a place which is a little far away from the Nephilim Palace and the town, a lone tower is standing tall and proud on the top of a small hilltop. The surroundings are green and filled with pretty colourful flowers. Small birds and animals have made that usually undisturbed hilltop as their home. Their constant chirping and the fresh breeze which carried the scent of the flowers is a constant on that hill too. The lone white tower is shining brightly with lights from within. The pleasant environment outside the tower is not seen inside though. This is the tower where Asael has been living for over a decade now. This is also the same tower which saw his cruelty and which stands as a witness to most of his crimes. This is the tower where Asael found his sister-in-law with her husband the Skipper king after searching for years. This is also the same place where he killed the Skipper king right in front of his sister-in-law and broke her heart. The walls of this lone tower are long ag
"Don't bring my father into this. He doesn't know anything" Samael defended his father. Eros gave a venomous glare. He doesn't have anything against Asael, but after reading what kind of a man he is, Eros couldn't seem to control his anger. He has an inkling of doubt that Asael might know about Iris. "Oh, is it? He doesn't know anything? Who are you trying to fool? He knows everything and I am sure he knows about my Iris too. Where is he?" Eros demanded to know Asael's where about. Samael is not understanding why the Were king is so against his father when it is him who demanded for the Skipper princess. "Listen, I don't know what you have against my father. But he doesn't know anything about the Skipper princess. Don't accuse him again" he warned Eros. Eros laughed at the foolish man standing in front of him. "I thought only I was foolish enough to trust the people who are not at all trustworthy. But looks like I am not alone. We just refused to see the bad in the people whom w
In the Dungeon, Maxim and Adalwolf are worried about Eros, Iris and Ojas. They too heard the commotion a while ago, which made their anxiety grow. They couldn't do anything to help their loved ones, but at the same time, they couldn't stop worrying about them either. "It's so quiet now. I hope they are safe" Adalwolf murmurred with concern. Even though Maxim is not expressing his thoughts out loud, he is worried too. "I am sure they will be fine. They will be searching for us" Maxim lied so that he could ease up the old man's worry a little. But he is not convinced with his own words. Adalwolf nodded hopefully. Eros on the other hand is silently killing all the Nephilim soldiers whom he came across in the dungeon. As the Nephilim prison is dark with little to no light, the Nephilim soldiers couldn't identify his presence immediately. But Eros can see them just fine with his heightened senses. So he used his senses to his advantage and killed the soldiers one after another before
Iris slowly came to her senses. She opened her eyes and blinked a couple of times to clear her vision. She took in the dimly lit room where she was placed with interest. This strange room is familiar and tastefully decorated. She knows she was being captured as soon as she landed in the Seer world. She could hear their conversation, but her eyes were too heavy to open and take in her surroundings until now. 'Where am I? Is this the Nephilim palace?' She wondered. She sat up on the bed, as quietly as she could. She doesn't want to alert the guards outside. Her bare feet touched the cold marble floor. She looked around her to find something or anything which she can use as a weapon. But just like she expected, the room is empty. Apart from the artistically painted walls and the painting hanging on the wall, there is nothing there that she can use as a weapon to defend herself.'So they don't want to give me a chance to escape ' she understood.As if they sensed that she is awake, two
"Run Haazim, Run. Protect the princess. Run" Hayath manually pushed a shocked Haazim out of the room. Unable to decide anything on the nick of the moment, Haazim ran away from his palace with his daughter and wife. Iris is watching everything with shock. She is like a spectator who is helpless to do anything to change the past. She is watching the turmoil and reluctance on her father's face to leave his mother alone to face Asael's wrath. But he looked at his daughter, who is watching with trust and innocence. He couldn't bring himself to endanger her life.So Haazim hardened his heart and left the tower to protect his daughter.Tears are streaming down the cheeks of Iris. She doesn't remember anything from her childhood, but looking at how her father was forced to choose between his daughter and mother is heart-wrenching."Iridessa" Iris heard her grandmother calling for the young princess. She thought Hayath is sad to see that her granddaughter is leaving, but when she turned to l
Iris is breathing heavily. She saw how many people lost their lives to satisfy the ego of a monster. She saw how her grandmother had to live with the heavy weight of guilt just because she made the mistake of falling in love. Hazily she remembered how her parents were hunted down and killed after three years. She recalled how Haazim begged her to run, sacrificing his own life. That night when the Nephilim caught the king and queen of the Skipper seers, Haazim could have run away and saved his own life. But he came back only to save his daughter."Dad, you and grandma gave your lives away for me. His majesty Adalwolf sacrificed his own family to raise me and protect me. Eros is ready to give up everything for me. I am so thankful for being blessed with so many wonderful people in my life. Now it's my turn to pay you back for your sacrifice. I will make you all proud. I will not let my race go extinct. The time has come for him to pay for his sins" she thought out loud with determinat
Eros, Adalwolf, Maxim, Ojas and Dina almost reached near the tower."There, that lone tower which is proudly sitting on that small beautiful hill is where lord Asael stays" Dina pointed out.The five of them just crossed dense woods and are standing in a clearing just outside the woods. They can see the tower where Asael held Iris. It would take them at least an hour to reach that tower."We need to hurry. The sun is going to rise soon. We need the blanket of darkness to slip inside that tower undetected" Eros urged.It would have been easier for him to shift into his wolf form and run towards the tower. But Adalwolf is too weak to shift and Ojas doesn't have a beast. Dina is a human, but she is not slacking or holding them back."Eros, I think it would be better if you and Maxim shift and race towards the tower. That way you could reach Iris faster. You could also easily sneak inside. We will wait here for you two. Don't indulge Asael. Just find Iris and Skip away from there" Adalwol
