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
