By morning the news about the Were Warriors defeating the giant Nephilims spread across the kingdom and also in the harem. Maids and guards are gossiping about the same. No one ever saw a Nephilim before, but surely heard about them. To them, the Nephilim are described as giant monsters who would kill anyone if they ever come across them. They are said to be immortals who cannot be killed, which added to the fear of the already existing one. But now the Were warriors are proudly declaring to everyone that they actually killed the so-called Immortal Nephilim soldiers. Soon this news traveled and reached Diandra. She wanted to tell about this to her mistress Iris, but the latter is not interested in gossip. So she went in search of Thomas to know more about the attack and how the Were warriors killed the monsters. "Sir Thomas" Diandra called Thomas when he saw him busily going somewhere. Thomas stopped and looked back at the woman who is his crush. "Not now Diandra, i am busy" he u
"Mind your words Ojas. If you think my patience is my weakness, then you are mistaken. I will not keep quiet if you insist on using the same nasty attitude towards me" she warned him.Ojas laughed humourlessly at her threat."What? Is my attitude nasty? Then what about your behavior? What should i name it? You don't care that so many lives are at stake because of you. The longer you stay here the more dangers you would invite to their doorsteps. You are selfish and careless. At least think about his highness. He is loyal to you and loves you more than himself. Don't lie to me that you don't know about his feelings. He doesn't deserve to be killed by those monsters. I know you can easily overpower me. Instead of threatening someone much less powerful than you, why don't you face those Nephilim on your own? Or you decided to stay here until they kill his highness?" he snapped with a red angry face.Iris felt the ache from the guilt she always hides in her heart. She knows she could push
In the Seer world, Samael gathered a hundred Nephilim soldiers to attack the Were palace and take the Skipper princess from the Were king. "Bring that old Shifter here. He will come with us and see how easily we destroy his king and his kingdom" Samael commanded a Nephilim soldier.After he learned that his soldiers are killed, Samael took it as an insult to his reign and decided to wipe the black mark from the Nephilim history by wiping away the Were king and his palace. He wanted to scare the shifters just like they scared the Skipper seers. A Nephilim soldier roughly pulled Adalwolf after him. When Adalwolf saw the outer courtyard filled with aggressive Nephilim soldiers who are chanting against the Were kingdom, he began to get worried. He understood that today is going to be marked as the day neither of the races could forget for a very long time. 'I hope you have already anticipated this dear Eros. I hope you are keeping Iris safe. I hope you are prepared to face this ' he pr
The Were warriors who are guarding the palace gates noticed that a portal has been opened nearby, and they were already alerted about the possibility of the Nephilim attack. So they are not surprised to see the portal."They are coming. Alert the others. Someone go and inform our king. Let's see who is brave enough to touch our queen" they said with anger. They prepared their bows and loaded them with arrows which are already dipped in the oil.One after another the Nephilim soldiers began to come out of the portal. They are out of reach to hit by the arrows, so the Were warriors waited for them to come closer. They got instructions to kill the Nephilim on sight. As it is still daylight, even the commoners who work outside the palace and even the maids inside the palace can see the huge number of Nephilims gathering outside the Were palace. The commoners ran away and hid inside the safety of their homes in fear. The maids ran inside the palace and away from the palace gates. Soon the
"What are You trying to do? Trying to get killed" Iris fired right back. Eros shook his head. "You are not understanding. They are after your life. If you stay here, you will become a beacon who will be targeted by them. Just go inside and don't leave the Imperial palace" he urged her and tried to pull her inside again. But she is adamant and refused to budge. "Do you think they will not try to breach these walls if I hide? It will result in unnecessary bloodshed. This is my battle. And I will fight my battles alone. I want you to go inside. I am not leaving" she refused to listen to him. Just then Ojas came. He saw Eros and Iris arguing. He is actually surprised to see Iris here. He thought she would be hiding in the Imperial palace safely and would let Eros fight her battles. But seeing her here made him pause and reevaluate his opinion regarding her. Eros is getting frustrated and anxious. He can see more number of Nephilim warriors piling up. Seeing Iris so close to them is m
"Darling, tell me you don't love me like the way I love you. I cannot leave you alone when you are in trouble even if you don't love me" Eros confessed.Everyone is waiting with batted breaths to see what would to this couple. There is pin drop silence around, except for the noise coming from the Nephilim side.Iris already knows that Eros loves her deeply. But this is the first time he confessed how much. She is moved by his sincere confession. Where can a woman get a more perfect man than him?Slowly she walked closer to him. All the while she is looking straight into his eyes. She stopped just an inch away from him."Do you know you are an idiot?" She whispered with tears in her eyes before hugging him. The Were warriors cheered happily, which confused the Nephilim. They are not understanding why the Were warriors are happy.One after another all the Nephilim piled into the Were world and Samael came last with Adalwolf behind him.Adalwolf looked at the palace which has been passe
The Were warriors cheered and clapped happily looking at how scared the giants looked and how they are running away. Eros hugged Iris, who is happy to see the predator becoming the prey. Her gaze caught sight of an old man, who is trying to navigate his way from among the scared Nephilim soldiers towards them.For some reason, she felt that she knows that man. He seemed very familiar to her."Eros" she pointed her finger at the old man who is struggling to come towards them while trying not to get stomped by the Nephilim giants. Eros saw the old man whom Iris was pointing at.A sense of familiarity washed over him."He looks familiar" both of them murmured at once.They both exchanged confused looks, but then realisation began to flood in."Grandfather" they whispered in unison.Iris gasped with surprise and happiness."He will get hurt" she whispered as panic began to rise in her heart. Adalwolf is too close to the Nephilim portal and all the other Nephilim soldiers are running into
In the Imperial Palace, Iris and Eros are in a trance. They saw his majesty after all these years, but he is not the man they both knows. The man they know oozes royal aura and is always well groomed. But the man who was seen trampled by those giants look so weak and so unlike him."He is taken again" Iris whispered with pain and guilt. She knows she is partly responsible for his current condition. If not for her, he wouldn't have ever come under the Nephilim radar.Eros couldn't believe that his grandfather was so close, but still, he couldn't save him from those Nephilim. He tried to reach him, but Samael was closer and easily pulled him inside the portal. "He is" he responded.Tasha, Emanuel, Maxim, Ojas, Thomas, Boris and even Diandra are feeling sad about what happened. Before they could celebrate their victory against the Nephilim, they had to taste the pain of loss. The Imperial Palace is grieving for the mighty brave king who never showed fear despite his current situation.
