Victor's p.o.v"Are you seriously going to act as if I'm a child you are looking after?. I have a room, and it's the Mistress's bedchamber." A man's voice came through.I sat upright on the bed and frowned.There was something familiar about his tone and how he spoke."You will stay here just as the queen ordered. Dinel will keep an eye on you." Arch responded."I'm telling you I can't go anywhere without my Mistress!. Don't you understand?" He asked at the top of his voice.I didn't like the way he was yelling at her, not even one bit.Although Arch was a demon fairy, she was so kind and good to me. Dinel rarely spoke to me, but she didn't treat me badly at all.I thought everything would be bad between the three of us, but I was wrong. They gave me food and asked me to bathe three times a day. When it came to sleeping, I was made to sleep between them. I didn't know why, but I decided to just go with it.The first day I kept awake trying to see if they would do something to me. But
Iris's p.o.v I stepped out of the portal feeling exhausted. Edith quickly moved to my side happily. "You made it back." She said loudly. "Of course I did, did you think I was going to die in that pathetic place?" I asked coldly. When she sadly pouted I chuckled softly. "I was just kidding," I whispered softly then walked to the desk and moved the sword on the table. "Don't touch it in any way, it is dangerous," I whispered. "You look pale." She said softly. "That's because the sword drained most of my energy," I answered then went to sit on the bed. I was about to lay down when the thought of Zara made me jump from the bed. "Where is he!" I asked in nearly a scream. "You mean the human man, he is under the demon fairies observation." She answered. "Why?. Did he try to run away?" I asked. "No. The queen came to ask him to be her assistant, and he agreed. When they walked out from here I followed them secretly and heard their conversation. The human man was planning on betr
Ducan's p.o.vI sat on the bed with Eleanor in my arms.When the whole palace began to shake, she quickly moved on my lap in fear. I felt very calm because I knew it was either Iris or Ose who was making it do that. It rarely happened but whenever they couldn't control themselves they tended to lose control over their powers or forms. Ose turned into his gigantic python form while Iris's three forms were revealed."Is it over?" She asked in a low tone."Yes, I'm sure the ancient witch has returned," I answered with a smile."Are you serious?" She asked loudly."Of course, if it's not her then someone must have pissed off Ose badly," I answered."If it's the ancient witch then she must have managed to retrieve the holy sword." She said then quickly stood up."Can we go and see her, she might be injured?" She asked in concern.I was positive that she was very much okay because there was no way she would use her powers if she was injured. But then I too was curious to know how her trip w
Zara's p.o.v"Take me to my sister, please," I begged the demon fairies."No." They answered together.They sat on the sofa with Victor between them. I didn't understand how he could be so comfortable around them when all they were doing was staring at him."Victor, may I have a word with you?" I asked softly.He looked at me for a second then averted his eyes."Please," I whispered.He looked at me seriously and then stood up."He can't be trusted." One of the demon fairies said in a low tone."I know Arch, but I can tell when he's being sincere or not." He answered and then walked past me.I stood up and followed him into the pool room."What do you want Zara?" He asked coldly.I went down on my knees and waited for him to turn and look at me."Why aren't you answering me?" He asked loudly then turned and faced me."What are you doing!" He exclaimed."Kneeling," I answered calmly."I can see that. But why?" He asked."Because I want to beg for your forgiveness. I seriously do have f
Bright's p.o.vI raised my hands in surrender whenConner raised his sword to my throat."I surrender," I whispered Softly."I figured." He answered with pride.Thinking back to how we came here made me want to whine.It was very late at night yet the camp was so noisy because it was Wednesday.Conner was struggling to sleep, and I too was getting annoyed at the loud screams and moans coming from both the women and the warriors being intimate. It was also becoming awkward for the three of us who lay in our tent just listening.When an idea popped into my mind I quickly sat upright and asked him to go out with me to train for a bit.At first, he was about to refuse but later changed his mind and grabbed his sword and another wooden sword for me.We carefully sneaked out of the camp and went to the back alley of some buildings which he was certain no one used at night because they were scared of the stories they had heard about the placeThe moon was brightly shining, and we could see m
Edith's p.o.vI stood watching my Mistress as she sat where a circle and a pentagram was drawn on the ground. On each end of the pentagram was a lit candle. Her legs were crossed, and the holy sword was floating right in front of her. Below it was the ancient dark book of spells and magic.Her form was one which I wasn't comfortable with, the faceless form.She was sweating, and she looked tired, yet she couldn't stop to eat or rest.Dark energy was coming from the book and entering the sword. The first few hours she had to change into her second form and ask me to bring a bow of animal blood which I complied with, then she asked me to leave the room which I did. But after hours I decided to return because I was concerned about her well-being.The door was locked from the inside and a barrier was put up that only the demon king, the queen and I could penetrate.She wanted no one to disturb her and I too would have been among them if not that she needed me to help out with some of her
Oni's p.o.v I watched in shock as Clair threw her sword at Eleanor who was running towards her. I was about to run to her side but stopped when Eleanor went down on her knees sliding forward and getting on her feet in a second with her sword pressed on Clair's shoulder. The whole training field went quiet and the only thing we could hear was our loud breathing. I couldn't understand how a friendly fight between them could quickly turn serious. Were they fighting or was one of them angry at the other?. I frowned, feeling confused when Clair smiled widely at her. "You are perfect, my queen. How the hell have you improved so much in just a few weeks?" She asked loudly. "I have two great teachers," Eleanor answered, then lowered her sword. "You mean someone is training you besides Oni?" She asked loudly. I, too, was interested to know exactly who it was. "I was just messing with you. I only have one teacher, besides him, I have this great sword that Ducan had given me." She answ
Ducan's p.o.v I was woken up by a loud ringing sound in my ear. I slowly sat upright on the bed and looked at Eleanor who was still asleep. Not only was I uncomfortable I felt uneasy. I groaned softly then slowly moved to the edge and got up. "What is it?" I asked huskily knowing that the ringing I had heard was a secret calling from the ancient witch. "The holy sword." Her response came. "I'll be there in a minute," I answered calmly. I was about to move when I heard Eleanor yawn. "Ducan." She called softly. I turned and looked at her. She was rubbing her eyes while moving to sit upright. "Who were you talking to?" She asked in a low tone. "Iris, she wants to have a word with me about the holy sword," I answered honestly. "Can I come along?" She asked. "I think it's urgent, and you have just woken up so...." "Please." She whispered, cutting me off. "Fine," I answered feeling defeated. There was no refusing her when she said please in such a tone. She moved from the be
Eleanor's p.o.v "No running in the passage!" I said loudly to my kids. They giggled and ran ahead completely ignoring me. "They sure are stubborn," Iris whispered. "Yes, they really are," I answered with a smile. My son who was the oldest (eight years old) looked very much like his father. He also had two forms, one a dragon and the other one human. He was mostly with his father because he loved magic and learning new things. My young daughter who was five years old was an angel. She was usually quiet, and she was very skilled in archery. At first, I was very concerned about that, but Iris assured me that most demons began training at a very young age. I felt confused because there was never a day she showed her demon form, so I had assumed she was only human but Iris was so sure she too had a demon form. According to her, her powers would show any year or day, so I paid no attention to that because the most important thing was that I loved them no matter what. "So my son is rea
(Ten years later) Clair's p.o.v "General," Charity called, snapping me out of my thoughts. "Yes," I answered calmly. "The queen has agreed to your request, and I was sent to report to you directly." She said in my office. "Thank you, captain, that's great news," I answered with a smile then looked at the future plans I had written in the scrolls on the desk. Life wasn't the same after ten years had gone by. Everything was different for us. When we decided to go back home, it wasn't because we missed our land. It was because we wanted to say goodbye to the ones we cared for and loved. Those were our siblings and parents. The other thing we wanted to do was to overthrow and kill the priests and elders that were against the demon kingdom and that's exactly what we did. The humans hated the demons and that was because of them. Every chance they had they poisoned our minds. As long as we would have stayed in the demon kingdom nothing would have changed, so we decided to go back. The
Oni's p.o.v "Me," Zara answered as I gasped loudly. Iris looked at him in disbelief. Her grasp on her staff tightened. "It was nice being a part of this beautiful kingdom. Its power, people, and everything were beyond what my mind imagined. You demon king you were kind enough to not kill us all, and I found love with one of the most powerful women in all territories. As much as I would love to stay, I can't. My parents aren't getting any younger and I never said goodbye to them, so they must be depressed over my disappearance. Also, I am the next chief in line because I'm their only male child. If I wasn't, I would have gladly stayed. Sadly I can't turn a blind eye to my people, not after all that I have learned." He said seriously. "In that case, come closer," Master said as Zara slowly did. Master raised his hand and pressed it on his head. I watched as Zara slowly began to revert to his previous young self. When he looked at his hands he quickly looked at Iris who lowered her
Oni's p.o.v We all stood looking at the burning bodies of the dead warriors quietly. It was so sad for us all to say goodbye because they were our friends. I held Charity's hand and glanced at her to see if she was okay. Since Ose's words that day, I was very considerate towards her. That day I rushed back to hug her and tell her how happy I was that she was alive, was the day we got closer. At first, she froze looking at me seriously before breaking down like a baby. I never knew simple words would mean so much. I moved and embraced her without a word. We didn't need to talk in that moment of bliss. Since then, we were acting like lovers, and it was because we both had this understanding between us, and we were very fond of each other. My only wish and hope were that we would soon fall in love with each other and be together for as long as we can. "All the warriors and generals report to me in the throne room at once." My master said loudly then disappeared with the queen from
Ose's p.o.v"You are safe now, you can all go back," I said happily to the elderly who were at the entrance of the maze.Luckily they were all safe and protected well.The grounds were clean from blood because of a spell Iris had cast and everything was back to normal.We had lost a few of our warriors and most of the creatures, which was sad.The ritual to help them (the dead) cross to the afterlife was going to be held by Ducan in the next two days, for now, we didn't want to disturb him. Iris, Oni, and I were overlooking everything and for hours we couldn't rest or see our lovers."Are you done with what you are doing?" Iris asked behind me.I turned and looked at her with a wide smile."Yes," I answered, then took a step closer."I still can't believe how easy it was for us to win the war," I said softly.She laughed then moved her hand to my shoulder."It was easy because we were united and had each other's back." She answered."Yeah, you are right. Are you done with what you wer
Eleanor's p.o.v"Stop it, that's dirty," I whispered in a labored breath.I was leaning against my elbows looking down on Ducan between my parted legs with sweat running down my forehead."What's dirty? You mean this?" He asked, then thrust his tongue into my wetness roughly.I threw my head back and screamed out his name in a voice that was unlike my own.What was this sensation I was feeling, it was new to me, yet it made me excited.His tongue was slightly painful, yet it was giving me so much pleasure. I wanted him to keep doing that, so he could satisfy this growing need I was feeling."My heart, you don't want me to stop do you?." He asked huskily.I bit my lower lip refusing to answer him. It was embarrassing to voice out my true thoughts.I was a virgin, yet I was acting like some indecent lady who had experience in doing this."What if he loses his interest in knowing that I did want him to continue?". That thought was making me uncomfortable.I sighed heavily, hearing the so
Eleanor's p.o.v The V formation was brilliant because the human warriors were trapped between the demon warriors, the generals, warriors, and creatures. I stood next to Iris watching everyone fight because I couldn't move. I wanted to help out in any way, but she couldn't let me. My feet were stuck to the ground by her binding spell and she looked relieved over that. Her defense was that she was only doing her job by keeping me safe. At first, I was furious with her and I kept on screaming at her for quite some time. But when she completely ignored me I gave up and decided to just stay put. I smiled when my gaze went to the female warriors who had formed a straight line fighting the male warriors seriously. Behind them were the generals covering their backs and making sure they were safe Ose was using his demon form, the gigantic python that was fast in striking down the human warriors with its tail. Each blow he made was fatal and deadly to them. I looked at Oni and noticed that
Hero's p.o.v I quickly got off the horse in shock looking at the lifeless, headless bodies on the ground. In front of me was a pool of blood of the village warriors. Richie stood with his hand wrapped around his waist like he was in pain. I angrily matched where he was and grabbed him by the neck. "Who did this!" I asked at the top of my voice. He coughed then dropped his sword and grabbed my hand removing it from his neck. "That stupid whore did this!" He answered furiously. This was the first time I was hearing him curse right in front of me. He was very angry that I could see. "Are you telling me that only one woman did all this to our warriors?" I asked in disbelief. "Yes sir. It is hard to believe, but it was a woman. Not only was she strong, but she also used dark magic." He reported. I tightened my grip on my sword and then patted his shoulder with my free hand. "I don't care how strong she is, I'm taking her down," I whispered then walked ahead leaving him in JD's ca
Iris's p.o.v I stood with Zara next to me right on the road that led to the palace, waiting for the human warriors to come into view. My job was simple, to protect the blessed maiden as my master had asked me to, but that didn't mean I couldn't destroy the first group of warriors. I felt stronger than I had ever been. My master was against the idea of me standing on the road because he didn't want anything harmful to come my way. I had to beg to finally have his approval. The creatures of the dark were outside the kingdom hiding in the trees and woods waiting to be summoned by me to attack the human warriors. What I first wanted was to have all the warriors come forth. After that, the creatures would go and stand at the entrance to take down any human warrior who would try to retreat from our kingdom. I closed my eyes feeling the vibration of the ground. They were approaching by horse, not foot, but the vibration wasn't strong which meant the warriors weren't all that. "Get read
