Bound By A Ritual Chapter 25
Sitting on the horse, Damon quickly joins me and we swiftly make our way out of the palace and into a bustling village. Carriages and horses fill the streets, but to my surprise, there are no cars in sight. Confused, I turn to Damon and ask, "Damon, why are there no cars here? I mean, this is the twenty-first century, right?"Damon leans closer, his voice barely above a whisper. "It is the twenty-first century, but King Fedor believes that these technologies are unnecessary in his kingdom. The people here prefer a simpler way of life, and they believe that simplicity is good." His lips gently brush against my earlobe as he adds, "Besides, all those modern inventions can lead to smog, accidents, and other unfortunate incidents."I shake my head, not entirely convinced. "I don't think that's a valid reasoning."Before I can say more, Damon interrupts, his tone urgent. "Hold that thought, Ava. Can you wait here for me? Don't move from this spot."I grab onto his hand, concern evident in m

Damon couldn't help but fret over Ava. It felt as if he had forgotten how to breathe the moment his eyes couldn't locate her. Where had she gone? Who was she with? She hardly knows anyone here; who could have taken her from me?" Mr. D," Zulu grabs my hand and pulls me towards the bed. "Calm down. She will be fine," she assures me.I've checked everywhere, except for Fedor and Elizabeth. This morning, Elizabeth did request Ava's presence, but I declined. Could that have made her angry? But would the Queen Mother be capable of harming someone over that?Before I can dwell on the thought any further, Zulu sits on my lap and leans in for a kiss. This is not unusual between us; she often does this to help clear my mind. However, at this moment, her kisses only leave me feeling disgusted.Breaking the kiss, I frown. "Not now, Zulu. My silly little girl is missing, and all you can think about is sex... get off me," I push her away, standing up and grabbing my jacket before walking out."You c

Ava watches as Damon stands to his feet, his expression turning fierce. "Who the hell do you think you are to touch what's mine?" he growls, his voice filled with possessiveness. At that moment, Alex steps forward, placing me protectively behind him, and chuckles."Don't think I don't know who you are," Alex retorts, his voice laced with anger. "You mean to say what you stole. She was mine, my bride-to-be before you showed up and took her away from me. You murdered her.""Murdered her??" Damon chuckles, his amusement evident. "I thought you had brains, but now I see how much of a fool you are. I never murdered her... if I did, she wouldn't ever show up in this world."Confused by their exchange, I take a step back, trying to make sense of the situation. Who are they arguing about? "Please, stop!" I interject, my voice cracking with emotion. "Don't hurt him. Damon means well."My words seem to pierce through the tension, and Damon reluctantly lets go of Alex's hand, stepping back. I rus

" Damon?" I mumble, hugging my knee to myself as I remain seated on the bed. I can't sleep, even if I try. Just one night of sleeping in his arms, and I don't want to sleep alone ever again."Go to bed, Ava!" he yells at me, which startles me. He's not happy, and I didn't mean to make him feel that way. I was just being honest."I can't," my voice trembles as he turns around to meet my gaze. "Can you please stay with me?"He furrows his brows. "I could ask you the same question, Ava. How can you be sure that I'm not also confused about my feelings? I mean, there's my sister, Zulu, and then there's you," he mocks. "I'm super confused, Ava." Tears stream down my face, and it doesn't take long for me to start crying like a baby. "Oh shit, what are you doing? Why are you crying?" Damon drops his cigarette and climbs onto the bed, using his hands to wipe away my tears. "I told you never to cry again, didn't I?""How am I supposed to do that when it happens on its own?!" I raise my voice at

Damon didn't take his gaze from the ceiling, he knew better as he remained glued to this bed, his hardness seemed to grow bigger with every touch of her skin on his, and her lips remained on his neck as she slept carefree while I die over her here. " ice cream" she mumbles slightly then giggles, how can she be sleeping soundly when I'm here suffering and slowly dying in pain, Zulu is right now waiting in the bed for me… I could just go to her and relieve myself without Ava ever knowing but the mere thought of having Zulu's hands on me made me frown in disdain.Surely something is wrong with me, for me to be feeling this way towards Ava confuses him, yes he likes her but why is that stopping him from liking others? Could it be the... No, I don't think so. The funniest truth is that Zulu had him promise to marry her when she was all grown up with big tits but that doesn't seem to happen anytime soon.That girl's front is as sleek as a wall. Although her cunt is tight as a consultation p

Damon shoved his hands in his pockets as he entered the Crimson Blade bar, renowned for serving the most incredible beers one could ever imagine. However, drinking wasn't exactly Damon's thing. He had come here for a specific reason."There's no way I'm coming to this kingdom and not meeting Lucas and Chase," Damon thought to himself as he approached the bar. Just then, he heard Lucas chuckle and say, "Is that Damon the fifth?""Shut up, Lucas," Damon replied with a smile. He took a seat at the bar and looked around, wondering where Chase was."The dude went out to buy more ingredients for our special beer. Nobody still knows the secret to that amazing brew, do they?" Lucas asked."Well, if they did, I wouldn't call it special," Damon responded, lowering his voice slightly. "But, cursed, you guys need to rebuild this place. Lucas, talk to Chase about it.""It's too late for you, Damon. He's right behind y..." Before Lucas could finish his sentence, Damon quickly ducked, narrowly avoidi

Ava decided it was time to meet this Zulu that everyone had been talking about. I wondered how she was connected to Damon. Was she his ex-girlfriend, ex-wife, or perhaps another sibling he was betrothed to?Taking a deep breath, I approached his room and tried to calm myself before opening the door. To my surprise, the room was deserted. As I was about to voice my confusion, I suddenly felt a knife pressed against my neck and sensed someone's presence behind me."Did Sheila send you? Another one of her lackeys to kill me?" the person behind me asked with anger lacing her voice."No, who the hell is Sheila?" I responded, trying to keep my voice steady despite the fear gripping me. "Shut up!" she snapped, her anger evident. "Don't act friendly with me, or I will kill you." I gulped, desperately trying to remember any self-defense techniques I had been taught, but my mind drew a blank. "What's your name?""Ava," I mumbled, my voice trembling. "I'm Damon's friend." As I said this, she mad

"Where are we going, Damon?" I growled in frustration, but he remained silent. We had been walking for a long time now, leaving the palace behind and now entering a town I had no idea existed around here. "Damon!" I repeated, hoping for an answer."I have no idea," he growled back, his frustration evident. "I just need to cool off a bit.""Why do you need to cool off?" I yelled, my anger boiling over. I stopped in the middle of the road, demanding an explanation. Damon halted as well, his expression seemingly unaffected."Hmm," he simply replied, provoking me even further."All you have to say is 'hmm'??" My anger intensified, and without thinking, I pulled my hands away from his grip and ran into the nearest forest. I could hear him calling my name, but I didn't let it stop me. I ran with all my strength, seeking solace in the solitude of the trees.As I ran, questions flooded my mind. Did I need to cool off too? Why were all these things happening? And why couldn't Damon just tell m

Unknown "Please let me go. Damon must be worried about me." Ava cried The blindfold was taken off her eyes and she was shocked to see Travis standing in front of her. "Hello, sister." "Travis, how could you kidnap me? I demand you take me back to the palace." "Don't you get it? I have always loved you. But you choose to ignore my feelings for you. And then I heard the news of your death, only for me to see you back again. It was a sign that we were destined to be together." He blabbed "I was your sister, you psycho.""But not anymore. Now we're not related. Nothing is stopping us from being together now." "I love Damon Travis, please. I'm carrying his child." "Not for long ava" "Look, I don't remember much from my past but I know you're a good person. Don't do this. Damon would kill you if he finds you but if you let me go, I promise no one will know about this." I tried to reason with him "Travis, please don't do anything to her." A girl walked into the room. "How the fuck

"I begged you not to kill him but you wouldn't listen. And all because of that stupid Ava, first, she took you away from me, and now that I have found someone else to love she wants to take that also? how can all the guys be crazy about her, I mean what does she have that I don't? I know she's pretty but that doesn't mean that she can get all the guys in the world. I'm starting to hate her she's the course of all this problem" Damon could see the pain and bitterness in her eyes as she spoke and it pained him to know that he was the reason why tears could be seen in Zulu's eyes. And on the other hand, Chase looked hurt by her words.Damon had already beaten Alex almost to the point of death. "Forgive me, Zulu, I let my anger get the better part of me. I had promised to protect you and now I am the cause of your pain. I'm sorry" "Sorry, you're telling me you're sorry after almost killing my beloved, you say you're sorry, tell me, what's your sorry going to do for me will it heal the

After the incident in which Ava saw Anna and me kissing, I thought she would come back here yelling and telling me how much she hated me for it. I have not seen her I guess she locked herself up in the room. Maybe I should just apologize I can't take this silence anymore. I wonder why ladies have to be so difficult. I mean, she was the one who upset me and now I'm about to ask for forgiveness from her. I just hope she doesn't plan on getting rid of my child cause of her crazy dreams. I made my way to our chambers only to find them empty. I checked the bathroom and the balcony but it was empty as well. Where could she have gone? I just hope she hasn't done anything foolish. "Grant, Chase," I yelled and they came almost immediately "What could be making you scream my name like the house is on fire," Chase answered. "Where is Ava? I mean, have any of you seen her 'cause I can't seem to find her." "I don't understand shouldn't she be in her room? Grant asked " I just said I can't fi

I still can't believe Damon kissed Anna, I mean we just argued and he was already running into the hands of another woman. And he keeps professing his undying love for me. Doesn't he know that I will get hurt by what he just did? What am I saying, maybe I walked in at the wrong time.Maybe she kissed him without permission, maybe that's true but Damon doesn't seem bothered. I guess I need to confront him. I was already on my way to give him a piece of my mind when suddenly I felt someone put a handkerchief over my nose and I passed out. ••••*Unknown* "I can't believe she is pregnant for that bastard. I have always loved her but yet she never noticed or should I say she chose to ignore my feelings for her. I lost her once because I never made any effort to gain her love but not this time. Not when I finally have a chance with her." "But son don't you think this is all wrong? I mean she's…" "Enough father, I don't care if it's right or wrong. All I care about right now is making h

" the truth is that I know I am weak " She frowns then clears her throat "I know that I am not strong so I don't need....." The next thing happening is her vomiting on my favorite rose in the palace. What did she eat? Damn, I love those flowers! Damon watches the sleeping Ava, right after throwing up, she loses consciousness, is she sick? The physician still hasn't arrived "Ava" I mumble the moment I notice her eyes blink thrice before slowly opening them, she turns and looks my way. She looks kind of pale, why didn't I notice she was sick? I was so busy being mad at her that I forgot to take proper care of her. " Damon?" She smiled " I feel so weak right now " she sat up gently, " I think I got the flu, I'm sorry" Titling my head to my left I study her gently "You are sorry? For what? Being sick? common ava or your body is telling you not to get angry so easily, you might vomit to death you know " "I'm sorry Ava, sorry for not being able to take good care of you. I just let anger

She steps closer and slaps me "I am not weak, you take that right back " and then it hits me. She remembers Damon's gaze moved back to aggravated Ava " Why the hell are you here" I couldn't help to get annoyed as well " What if something bad happened to you, this is a battlefield for crying out loud " " a battlefield where all your enemies are lying dead, I am not weak Damon, I can take care of myself " " of course, you aren't weak " I frown "How did you even get your memory back ?" " why are you asking" she furrows her brows " Were you even bothered about my memory loss? " I frown, saying nothing else. I know this will lead to a long argument. I am about to give her the argument she wants but not now and not here. "You were happy with the fact that I lost my memory. Weren't you?" She gasped " Sebastian, take her to the palace" "I am not moving from this spot "Exhaling I tried calming myself down but before I could reply to her, Alex shoved me aside " Ava, how did...." Before he

" Forgive me milady " he smiles and I frown" Right now we need you to get ready for us to leave for the palace" " are we going to be living there?" I ask while moving back into the house, Sebastian nods his head and I lift the book I was given yesterday "Can this book talk? " I turn and look at Sebastian " I have a feeling it is alive" of course I am alive" I blink because all that happened was fast, the book flying from my hands and becoming human, a woman with dark long hair " A mistress that can lose her memories so fast?"" what are you" I looked closely and Travis gasped " Don't tell me Ava is running mad " he steps closer " Who are you talking to Ava? " " the book, it is human " I look at her "They can't see you?" " no mistress, only you can "She moved closer " I can give you back your memories master but it will cost you a great deal " My gaze urges her to speak "You will have to release me, you just need to say the word and I will be master of my own, people will be able t

" of you leaving me and marrying another man " From the sound of his voice I realize he isn't lying, is that what he calls a nightmare, is it possible he likes me? Looking up at him, I Lean close and kiss his forehead "Sleep, I won't leave you "A smile forms on his lips. " thank you sugar" With that he closed his eyes and I could tell he was already asleep. •••• Ava kept an eye on him as he slept, he did say today he will be king, does that mean the battle is ending today? How am I supposed to get back the memory I am said to have lost " Damon " I mumble then sigh, whenever I say that name my body reacts strangely. He sleeps peacefully and he looks so handsome. Moving his hair from his face I watch him smile " I thought you would kiss me " he muttered, his eyes still closed " I won't mind if you do, so go ahead " " Why would I want to do that anyway? " I tried so hard to hide the blush on my cheeks. " I don't know " he opens his eyes "Maybe because my lips look addictive" he wi

After Zulu was told by Damon to go heal Alex, she didn't waste any more time as she left immediately heading to the man she had grown to love, Alex. Zulu watches Alex frown the moment he realizes Ava has gone " Where the hell is Ava, she should be here. I remember leaving her here with you, didn't I? " he turned in my direction and I had to shrug. " I told her to stay still, I was worried about you so I left to come to check up on you " Alex ran his hands through his hair, frowning " Zulu, I told you clearly to keep an eye on her, she is too...." Waving my hands I make him stop talking, he furrows his brows, and even while hurt he still worries about Ava. " you're badly hurt, you need treatment "Trying to touch his hand he steps away "Alex, you need to stop thinking about her and start thinking of how badly wounded you are." " you're just my maid, you don't call me by my name! " " then I quit " "Fine, now get out!!" " No " I yell back at him, watching him slowly sit on the bed,
