BASTIAN’s POV.Adeline stiffens the moment the king asked her that question. She clenches her and unclenches her jaw and believe me, I know what’s going on in her mind. Talking about the man who broke your heart can be shitty stuff and it makes me get more upset with the king. Can’t he just drop it? Why the hell must I always do this?“You…“He forced me” Adele cuts me off and a look of surprise flashes through my face.“What?” King Tarus leans forward, all eyes on her.“He forced me into that marriage with him and he never told me the reason. I have asked a million times but he wouldn’t tell me. My lord” she immediately falls on her knees, “I am tired of being married to him, please grant me a divorce”For the second time today, my jaw drops. She didn’t even discuss this with me and now she…I should be happy she wants to end this marriage but she is Adele, she always has something up her sleeves.“So you want a divorce?”“Yes, your majesty” she responds, “it was stupidity on my side

ADELE’s POV.I have trusted Bastian all my life but letting him bring me into this forest was definitely a bad idea but then, anything to keep me away from Cahir. I didn’t want to be in the same space with him, I didn’t want to breathe the same air with him. Anything to keep me away from him and at this point, I genuinely don’t care that Bastian lied to me about being the prince. He could do anything he wanted and I was enjoying that at the moment..well, i could be a hypocrite one more time. Being in the same room with Cahir a while back almost messed with me and I wanted to jump into his embrace, shame be damned but I didn’t. How could I forget the things he said to me? He made me feel like I didn’t even deserve to be in the same space as him. Yes, I loved him but I was done letting that love consume me. Now I am going to focus on finding my father’s murderer and also heartfyre. I have been able to control my powers now and the king has not said anything. I am still safe and that’s

ADELE’s POV.I stiffen in his embrace the moment his lips crashed against mine. It is hungry, vicious, ferocious and everything in between. He fists my hair in his hands and deepens the kiss, prying my mouth open in the process. This man before me looks so different from the Cahir that I knew, he looks like he is about to bring the world to its knees.But we shouldn’t be doing this, he is the same person who pushed me away, he has no right coming here and kissing me like he owns me and moreover I owe Bastian every iota of respect, he has helped me by bringing me me to his and his mother’s favorite place so how can I disrespect it like this?With my last ounce of power, I push him off and my hand lands on his face in a slap. How dare he? How dare he come here and act like everything is fine when he was the same person who pushed me away because he was sleeping with his step mother. The mere thought of it makes me so upset that the urge to drown him in this water encapsulates me.“How d

CAHIR’s POVWith each step I take away from her, the urge to turn back and pull her into my arms and tell her how much I love her and how much I want to be with her. When I saw her earlier with Bastain, I was so upset that I had to come here to find her and when I saw her looking so beautiful inside that water, I wanted to keep looking at her forever but I didn’t want her to know she is my weak point , I want to be able to protect her without raising suspicion from anyone including the king and Bastain. The only person who knows about my plan is Desdemona and I will kill her if she ever thinks of betraying me.After leaving them, I make my way back to the palace, just in time to see the king before he leaves. Because of Adele, I have been frequenting the palace lately. Even though I don’t like it, I have to do it for her and nothing else.Today, I used my powers to trap Bastian in an endless loop of looking for her, I don’t know what I will do next when it comes to her. The only thing

ADELINE’s POV.I have known Gwen for a while because she is related to mother. What I didn’t know was the fact that she was Cahir’s nanny and even Bastian knew her. Now I am standing in front of them wondering the other things I do not know. It’s official, I am the most kept in the dark person in Drakesworth.They look close, Cahir is smiling genuinely at her and even Bastian too. They look really close.“I didn’t know you worked for him, aunt”“The palace kept it a secret, my dear” she says, “even your mother found out recently when she told me that you had gone to the borders to become a soldier. Then I told Cahir to take care of you. I think the gods are on my side because the two of you got marriage”“It was a sham marriage, Gwen” the words are out of my mouth before I can even stop it, “we are asking the king for a divorce”“What?” Her head whips towards him, “a divorce? Why?”“We are not getting a divorce, Gwen” Cahir says as a matter of fact, “you can try all you want. Gwen, I

BASTIAN’s POV.I watched her leave, her shoulders hanging low. I knew Adele ever since she was a child. One thing is that she would never want to bug anyone with her problems no matter how large it is. She is having issues with her family but no one knows. Her sister and her mother both treat her badly but after knowing her, she opened up to me.I can say that I know her the most in this world, I know her more than everyone and it gives me a kind of joy to know her and be able to help her. That’s why the moment I watch her walk out of the palace gates, I turn around and walk back into the house. I need to have a serious conversation with Desdemona, I do not care if she is the queen but I do not play about Adele. Yes, I killed her father but she doesn’t know about that and she doesn’t need to know. He found out what he was not supposed to and that led to his death. Once again, people should mind their fucking businesses.Shoving the thoughts of him to the back of my head, I quicken my

CAHIR’s POV.“Good, I want all of them in before next weekend” my voice resonates round the room as all eyes remain on me. Two days after I returned from Drakeworth, it has been boring. I haven’t seen her in two days and I genuinely do not know what’s going on. If I had known that Bastian would pack his belongings and go with her, I would have thought of something else to do with her.With hearfyre still out there, the urge to protect her continues to grow. I trust that she won’t be able to get her back in Drakesworth because it has been an age long tradition that drains are not allowed in the country unless with their bonded humans and that’s why I can always take Ivar with me anytime I visit.“Is that all?” Xerxes asks, cutting off my train of thought.“Didn’t you get it?”“Sorry?”“Don’t be stupid, Xerxes” the words are out of my mouth before I can even stop myself. I am being a bastard now but I genuinely have no intention of stopping. My wife is in Drakesworth with my brother wh

ADELE POV.Someone frantically knocks on my door and I push my body off the bed but before I can even get to the door, it pushes open and my husband’s angry face comes into view. He looks so upset, so fucking upset.“Cahir, you…..The words hang in my throat as he yanks me closer and slam his lips on mine. Anger, desire, pain, lust and everything in between. He pushes me back against the wall and deepens the kiss making it almost impossible for me to breathe. Part of me like it, the part that want to have my hand wrapped around his torso while he fucked me into oblivion but the other part, the logical one wants to push him away and make him understand that he can not just walk into my room and kiss me like he owns me. Technically he does since we are still married but that aside, he can’t just.With my last ounce of logic, I gently push him off and a frustrated groan leaves his mouth as he pulls away from me. He is still close, so close that his natural scent is making a mess of me a

CAHIR’s POVBlood..fire…the dagger. She took his hand instead of mine and I promised to take my revenge on her. She chose him over me, I should take my pound of flesh and make her pay for not believing in me.“General?” I hear my voice from a distance and I gently turn around to see her standing behind me.“Even in my dreams. You are here” I manage to force the words out of my mouth.“Why? You don’t want me?”“You chose my brother over me, this is what you get for being what you are”“You speak like you don’t understand the severity of things, general” she starts to walk towards me, “you think you are one hell of a man but you are worse than anything. Do you think the prophecy is a joke?”“Are you instigating me to kill?”“You can’t change what has been written, general. You can only do what is necessary”She comes to a halt in front of me, my huge frame towering above her. Now looking at her, she doesn’t look like my Adele. They have the same face but different temperaments and way o

BASTIAN’s POV.From the window, I watch all of them battle her and I know deep inside of me that they are no longer a match for her. She has evolved in a way none of us thought was possible. She was now someone we couldn’t afford to mess with and that’s why laughed at Desdemona when she sent that useless assassin after her. I bet everything I owned to the fact that Adele will come back unscathed and she did. Now Xena under the command of the mint has refused her entry but i know my best friend. She doesn’t back down from a fight and I admire her for that.“For someone who is about to be killed by her, you really have a happy look on your face” Caroline’s voice rings in my ear as she comes to stand behind me, “shouldn’t you do something?”“I already have all this figured out”I tell her, “now you wait and watch what happens. I am not going to let my best friend become a stranger to me”“She is not stupid”“Well, let’s see how this goes”Pulling out my sword, I make my way out of the roo

ADELE’s POV.I let out a light groan as I lower myself on the rock, pulling out my water container, I take a mouthful, letting out a huge sigh. Finally, I have gotten all the medications and it’s time to get going. It has been hell of a day and right now I genuinely want to lay down on my bed and take a nice nap.A frog jumping at the side catches my attention and somehow it reminds of Bastian and the horrible things he has done. I took him as my own family and this is what he does to me. He killed my father and pretended about it for years, making me believe the dragons did it. How could he do something like that? How could he look me in the eyes all these years whenever I told him about my father? He has no conscience, I can see it now. The fact that he pretended to be my friend for years while being my father’s killer says a lot about him and everything I have ever believed in.“You can’t continue sulking here” hearfyre’s irritated voice rings in my ears, “unless you want your husb

BASTIAN’s POVAs soon as she disappears out of the room, I turn my gaze to the unconscious man on the bed. The urge to grab a dagger and thrust it into him envelops me but I can’t do that, not when the physicians are both here and the king is just outside the door.What the hell Cahir? Why did he have to show her? I have kept that secret for a long time but somehow he managed to find out and even show her the evidence. I didn’t know Cahir had mastered that magic art, now I was taken unawares and it would take the grace of the gods for me to be able to talk my way out of this one. Adele always believes everything I tell her, but I have a feeling she won’t believe any kind of lies that I tell this time around.“You should leave now, my prince” one of them tells me, “we want to clean him up”With one last angry look at him, I make my way out of the room stopping when I come across my father and Desdemona.“How is your brother?” He asks me frantically and I scoff. I have never taken him a

ADELE’s POV.I freeze the moment the dagger goes through him. He put himself in between Bastian and I willingly drove the dagger into him. My whole body starts to shake seeing the blood dripping from his injury.“Cahir!!” His name rolls out of my mouth as someone immediately pushes me away from him and I crash into a nearby table.People immediately gather around him, trying to hold onto him.“Cease her murderer!!” Someone yells but my whole attention is on the man in front of me whose gaze is still on me. Two men grab me from behind but I don’t even struggle with them, not when the man I love is bleeding in front of me. Why did he have to run in front of the dagger like that? I wanted to hurt Bastian because he killed my father, I didn’t plan on hurting Cahir. My body is shaking at this point, what will I do if something happens to him and he doesn’t make it?“Let her go!” His voice resonates in the entire hall, I can feel pain and anger from his voice, “she is going to stay by my s

CAHIR’s POV.One last chance and she took his hand again. One last chance and she showed me why I shouldn't have bothered to give her a chance. She came to my banquet and decided to hang around my brother? I will kill her. I have always been a jealous one, not wanting to share what belongs to me. That is probably why I hate Bastian because I have to share my father with him and now I have to also share my wife’s affection with him. Even the gods bear me witness, I rather die than do something like that. She has made an enemy of me and I won’t just sit back, I won’t let her continue to ruin me. I made the right choice, she means nothing to me anymore.“You don’t look so happy here?” Father’s voice jolts me out of my thoughts, “is the banquet not to your liking?”“Of course it is father” I flash him a fake smile, wishing to be anywhere but here right now. Fuck!! I hate this, I hate this with every fiber of my being.“I thought so” I can see the strained smile on his lips. He never wante

ADELE’s POV.“Are you sure about this?” Morgana asks for the umpteenth time and once again, I nod. I think I am more than ready. It has been two weeks, two weeks that my family have been thrown in prison, two weeks of trying to purge him out of my system and I can’t lie, it hasn’t been easy but it is worth it. He arrested my family and that’s the deal breaker for me.“Do not worry, Morgana” I touch her shoulders lightly, “I won’t let anyone hurt me okay? And moreover, I am going with heartfyre, do you think that dragon will let anyone hurt me?”“Of course I trust her, I just don’t trust that General”“I will take them to a safe place and come back okay?”Smiling at her, I pick up my scabbard and off I go. In no time, hearfyre is up in the sky, our destination Drakeswoth. Today, I am going to put an end to every fucking thing.“I am sure the general is awaiting your arrival” her voice filters into my ear again.“He can wait all he wants. Do not speak or him again”With that I close my

CAHIR’s POV.“You are making a mistake, General” Ivar tells me as I gulp down the content of the glass. I have always loved good wine, I just haven't had the time to drink them for a while now because I have been too concerned about my stubborn little wife who decided to choose my brother over me. I should have known that she would always choose him. She is with me because she can not be with him, she chose me because she didn’t know how to be with him. How dare her not believe me? His dare she thinks I would lie about her father when I know how much he means to her but my pretty little wife looked me in the eyes and called me a liar, she took his hand and led him out of the room.I angrily smash the goblet on the wall as that image somehow creeps Into my mind. My jaw clenches together and I close my eyes trying to push that memory out. She held his hand, she knows how much I hate him and how many fucking times did I tell her to stay away from him? Why the heck does she never listen?

ADELE’s POV.“Of course I killed that old man” the grinning Bastian half yells, his sword to my neck, “he found out about things he shouldn’t have bothered himself with and you think I would let him live?”The grin on his face widens as he tries to slash my neck with his sword but I immediately open my eyes, it was a dream. My entire body is covered with sweat. The dream looked and sounded real like he was in front of me.It’s true, I still haven’t got Cahir’s words out of my head but does that warrant this kind of life like dream? The Bastian I know can be unruly but he wouldn’t dare to kill my father, will he? He told me he was innocent and I believed him so why did I have this dream? What in the god's name is going on that I do not know about?I gently climb out of the bed and make my way out of the room. Morgana and her father must be asleep. Not wanting to wake any of them up, I make my way out of the castle into the huge courtyard. Looking at it, it reminds me of the courtyard b
