"Please Eros. Let her stay. I will do anything to make you feel better" she offered innocently. Eros smirked when he heard her offer. "Anything?" he asked her with mischief shining from his eyes. Iris frowned at the look in his eyes. She can see that something is brewing inside his head, which she is sure she wouldn't like. "I mean, anything within reason" she backtracked and amended her words. Eros shook his head and turned to leave, which confused Iris. "What? Where are you going? We are not done here" she said with a frown and blocked his path yet again. Diandra is feeling like she is in an alternate universe, where her king is teasing a human and he is not all angered to be stopped twice by the said human. One can even say that he is enjoying the banter with Iris. Eros refused to look at her and turned towards the grandfather clock on the wall instead. He sighed impatiently, indicating that he has important things to do. "Fine, what do you want?" she grumbled. Eros gave
"It's just been two weeks since you came here. And you already provoked the princess consort, Mina?" Diandra gasped after she heard everything from her new mistress and friend Iris. "Yaa" Iris muttered. Diandra sighed and shook her head. "Didn't I warn you not to speak with the royals at all? Forget about speaking, you trifled with them? Now, look what they are doing. Mina is known to be very cunning. People whisper that she has the support of the royal mother. That's why she acts as if she is already the Queen. She is the last person I would want to meet in my life. If it's not for his highness protecting you, you would have been dead by now. Mina will not stay quiet. She will not stop until you are dead. If the royal mother gets involved in this matter, then even his highness cannot save you" Diandra shared, worrying about Iris. Iris is a good person and Diandra doesn't want anything to happen to her. Iris chuckled at Diandra's concern. "Don't worry Diandra. Eros promised me t
Eros frowned when he saw the message sent to him by one of his generals appointed to protect the northern borders of the WERE kingdom. 'My king, we are under attack. I cannot see or hear anything or anyone. But one after another all my men are falling unconscious and not waking up again. I need backup immediately ' The small message sent from his general, which is tied around the leg of a trained royal messenger pigeon read. Eros passed around the message to his ministers and advisors to read. "Your highness, should we be worried?" one of his ministers asked with a worried frown. Eros can sense the urgency with which his general wrote the message. He is sure that this is something that they should be worried about. The words written are unsteady as if the hand which is writing it is shaking with fear. And Eros noticed that his general forgot to greet his king, which is a usual norm while writing any message directed at their king. None of his generals ask for backup unless it is
Iris found out that Eros is busy with some work. She was disheartened and turned away from his personal study when she found Thomas walking in. "Thomas" she called him to attract his attention. Thomas noticed Iris and swiftly walked towards her. "Greetings lady Iris" he bowed to her. Diandra curtsied to Thomas which he accepted with a nod. "Thomas, where is Eros? I want to meet him" Iris confessed. Thomas gave Iris an apologetic look. "My apologies lady Iris. His highness is currently busy with important work. It might not possible for you to meet him until this evening" he said politely. Iris sighed. She cannot disturb his work. But she is so used to having him around, that it is hard not to see him for two days. "It's alright. I will just swing by the training fields and will say hi to him. I promise I will not disturb him. Can you please take me?" She requested. Thomas is helpless. "I never wanted to say 'no' to you my lady. But the training fields and every place where w
"Fire" Iris is taken aback by the command issued by Eros. Based on their history, everyone knows that they had a rocky beginning. It is only fair for her to harbour anger towards him for how he treated her in the initial days. She is holding a loaded bow and he is standing in front of her unarmed. It doesn't take her more than a few seconds to kill him. But still, he is standing right in front of her with confidence. What is more surprising is the twinkle in his eyes. She saw the confidence in his eyes that she will not hurt him. And he is also confident that she might not hit the target. He is having fun at her expense. "You should be scared that I might kill you. But you are stupid to enjoy being aimed by an arrow directly at your head" she pouted with a frown. Eros chuckled at her. "You are many things but not a killer Iris. If you wanted, you could have killed me a dozen times by now. I sleep beside you every night for crying out loud. But apart from your sharp tongue aiming
Gonzalo is glaring at Iris with hatred. He thought he could climb up the ladder and play a key role in the royal court after he becomes the father-in-law of the king. So when he saw how his daughter Mina is falling all over herself over his highness, he gifted her to his king. He advised his daughter to pretend as meek and docile so that she could impress his highness as his concubine.When he is sure that his highness is favouring his daughter over his other concubines, he bargained a deal with the royal mother Dorothea and made her force his highness to take Mina as his future queen and mate. Dorothea needs a hold on the throne. If the Queen is on her side, it would be an advantage for Dorothea over the King. So she agreed with Gonzalo, who helped her in killing the late king Johnson and his mate Sylvia before him. So Dorothea helped him to become a minister in the royal court.When they thought everything was going smoothly, Iris came from nowhere and shook the entire palace. Now
In the Crescent moon palace, Gonzalo is frowning with displeasure. Mina is sitting beside him with a scared look on her face. Dorothea, the royal mother of the Were kingdom is having a calculating gleam in her eyes. Waldo, her brother is eying Mina with want. He is making sure not to get caught while looking at her because he knows Gonzalo would kill him for looking at her with bad intentions. "Why do we have to wait? I just can't stand the sight of her anymore. She became a sharp thorn who is making me feel like she is stabbing me whenever I think about her" Gonzalo complained. Dorothea looked at him with dissatisfaction. "I said she will die. But right now we are facing a crisis near the northern borders. It should be taken care of first. If we kill her now, then all of his highness's attention would turn towards her death. That would affect his decision-making skills while making the right decision about the issue at hand. We all need a strong position in the royal court. We don
Maxim reluctantly ordered for the best warriors to go along with the king. He made the necessary arrangements for Eros to travel to the northern borders. "What? His highness is travelling to the north? Is that border under some threat?" Thomas asked Maxim with a worried frown. As a part of making the arrangements, Maxim needed to inform Thomas about the upcoming travel plan of his king, so that he could prepare to accompany his highness. Thomas reacted just as Maxim thought he would. "Yes, he is not willing to change his mind. I am worried. The reports we have been receiving from the borders are not at all good. None of us think that it's a good idea to let our king go. But no one can change his mind once he decided to do something. Apart from lady Iris, we haven't even found a decent archer as well. But lady Iris cannot travel with his highness. This is not good" he murmurred with a frown. Thomas is worried, but neither of them can do anything to change this. So they parted ways
After one month... Samael declared that the Nephilim will never harm the Skipper seers again. Everyone heard about how he helped the Skipper princess to kill his evil father. That news spread like wildfire all among the supernatural beings. The remaining Skipper seers who managed to hide and save their lives for this longer came out of their hiding. They are not many, but it's a start. They approached the Skipper princess, who is also the queen of the Were kingdom. Eros gave them permission to stay in the Were kingdom if they doesn't want to go back to the Seer world. As their princess is living in the Were kingdom, they preferred to live there as well. Samael became sensible and completely changed himself. His mistakes made him realize what is right and what is wrong. He is now trying to become a great ruler, unlike his predecessor. He also formed a good bond with Iris and Eros never objected to his presence in the Were kingdom. Especially after how he saved Iris and the others fr
Asael's Nephilim is huge. He is the biggest Nephilim no one has ever seen. The rain of arrows showering over him is making little to no difference at all on the Nephilim giant. He began to move closer to the Nephilim palace, each step is shaking the ground violently. The tremors caused by his footfalls make all the shifters go off balance. Some of the warriors lost their hold on their bows and arrows, while the others began to fall down and is having a hard time getting back on their feet. "Shit, he is coming closer. He can destroy the palace as easily as he squashes a bug" Ojas muttered as panic and uncertainty began to bubble inside all of them.Iris and Eros are worried. For the first time, Iris began to fear her life.'What if I lose my life today? Can Eros survive the loss of his other half?' She wondered.She saw how Eros moved a little so that he is standing right in front of her. He is making sure to protect her life with his. She saw how all the warriors are scared, but how
In the Were kingdom, before Eros, Iris, Maxim and Ojas could go inside the palace after sending off Samael, another portal opened a little farther away from the palace."Shit, he is coming" Maxim is the first person to notice the portal, alerting Eros and Iris."Maxim, tell our warriors to take positions" Eros instructed.A soldier brought a bow and arrows to Iris. She is wearing a tight black corset over a black t-shirt, with a black breach with boots. Adalwolf recommended this to her when she insisted upon taking part in the fight against Asael.While Eros has his claws drenched in blood along with his sabres and hidden knives."Ojas, go and inform Emanuel. We need weapons drenched in the blood of my father and grandmother. What we have now will only work on the Nephilim Soldiers. We need a stronger potion to kill Asael. Hurry" Iris urged Ojas, who ran to inform the same to Emanuel. In the royal facility, both Emanuel and Adalwolf are tense. Just then Ojas came to inform them about
"I understood that I cannot find peace until my killer is punished " she said sadly. Samael became sad. "Forgive me, mother. I couldn't save you from him" he apologised with grief and regret. She lovingly ruffled his hair. "You were a little boy yourself. I never held it against you that you didn't step in. In fact, I was happy that you are safe. My only regret was that he made you hate me. I couldn't bear to see your hatred directed against me son. But now I am happy that you regained your memories. Now I can be at peace that you would avenge my death" she said softly. Samael leaned into her touch like he is the same little boy when he lost his mother. She caressed her son with love and affection. She healed all of his wounds. Just then they heard voices from outside the room. Samael looked at the door with a frown. "Son, you go back to the Were kingdom. Here, take this" she told him with urgency and handed over a vile to him. But Samael is not willing to part ways with hi
Eros looked at Iris who nodded her head. He is silently asking her what to do. She nodded and conveyed to him that she wants to help Samael. The son of Asael knows everything about his father and even his weakness. She is sure he would help them to kill the Nephilim lord.When their goals are the same, why not help each other?"You need our help? You are alone against your father and hundreds of Nephilim soldiers. You tried to kill your father but failed. Now you are a runaway convict who is wanted by your father along with my mate." Eros summarized Samael's present condition.Samael nodded, accepting everything the Were king stated."Alright, we are ready to help you. But you cannot stay inside this palace. This place is warded against the Nephilim. Moreover, if you stay in the Were world for much longer, you will die from excessive bleeding. You need to heal yourself. I suggest you go back to the Seer world and heal your wounds before coming here again. I don't think it would take m
In the Were kingdom, Eros, Adalwolf, Iris, Emanuel, Maxim, and Ojas are devising a plan to face Asael, who is going to attack the Were palace soon."It's been one full day from the time we escaped from the Seer world. I am sure Asael would have already found out that Iris is missing. It will not take him much time to find out where she is. So he is going to come after her sooner" Adalwolf shared his opinion.Eros is feeling the same way."What you said is right, grandfather. He was searching for Iris for years now. He will not be quiet after learning that she escaped from his clutches once again. He is going to come soon. He will not relax until he kills her" he said with the knowledge he gained from the book he read about Asael.Adalwolf and the others frowned at his words. Eros is speaking as if he knows everything about the former Nephilim lord."How do you know that he was searching for her for years?" Adalwolf questioned.Eros sighed. He did not get time to share about where he l
"Son, I think you have been influenced by someone against me. That is why you are placing these kinds of blame against me. This is not right" he said patronizingly. The Nephilim soldiers who work for Samael remembered how the Were king insisted about Asael killing his wife. They are stuck in confusion. They cannot understand if what he said is true or was he influencing Samael. Samael snorted sarcastically. "Who will influence me against you father? Everyone detests me as much as they detest you. You deserve the hatred you are getting, but i don't. All i did wrong was blindly trusting in you. I thought i am avenging for the loss you experienced after losing my mother. I really believed that the Skipper king eloped with my mother. They were times when i struggled to hate my mother for what she did to you, but failed. Deep down my heart knows she is innocent, that's why i couldn't hate her. It's you whom i should detest for what you did" he said sadly. All the soldiers began to susp
Samael went to the tower where Asael is in, with his full army. He knows how strong Asael is and how hard it would be to defeat him. But still, Samael didn't back up. He declared war against his father, and he is going to fight until the end. The Nephilim soldiers who are guarding the tower notice Lord Samael coming toward the tower with his army. "It's lord Samael. Inform our lord Asael about his arrival" one of the Nephilim soldiers alerted the other soldier, who rushed inside the tower to inform the same to Asael. "Lord Samael is coming this way" the Nephilim soldier Informed Asael's right-hand man, who frowned. "Lord Samael is coming now? Why?" he wondered out loud. Despite his doubt, he still informed Asael about Samael's arrival. "What? Samael is coming? Let's go" Asael murmured and he walked out of the tower to greet his son. But when he saw that his son is coming with his full army, he frowned. 'Am I imagining this or is Samael looking really angry?' he thought to himse
In the Seer world, Samael declared war against his father and the killer of his mother Asael. Surprisingly, all of his soldiers are on his side. For some reason, they never liked Asael that much. So when Samael revealed that Asael is the one who killed his mother and he is making them kill the poor Skipper seers for his sins, they all became disturbed. Nephilim's are giants and are stronger species. But no one wants to kill others for nothing. Moreover, the task of hunting and killing the Skipper seers is not easy. It's tiring and that would keep the Nephilim soldiers away from their families for months and sometimes even years. So many people suffered because of some selfish reasons of their previous lord. So they decided to end everything by killing Asael. He is powerful and an old Nephilim. The Nephilim's grow their strength as they grow older. In that aspect, Asael is more powerful than the rest of them. But still, Samael wants to kill him no matter what. On the other hand, in
