On the other side of the portal, somewhere deep in some weird foggy forest, Yael was there resting crouching down behind a big tree and she panted as she leaned her head against her bloodied hands that were wrapped around the handle of her daggers. She was trying to catch her breath and her white garments were all bloody from the previous intense fight with the monsters. The blood on her cloths were from the monsters she had killed. She had killed too many of them since she entered this forsaken forest that she had long since lost count of them.Her usual smooth and silk skin was also covered with wounds and blood. Some from her own and some from those creatures that fell prey to her. It had been days since she had gotten lost in this forest filled with monster that were more scary than the one in crystal valley. She had never seen before. She could not use her healing magic to treat her wounds that were not too lethal because she did not want to use whatever little energy that was le
Yael could see that she was nearing the exit. She remembered this was where she had first entered the forest. She looked back and saw that a group of aggressive flying bat-like monsters were now chasing after her. They were determined to reach and capture her as their meal.Yael used whatever little energy that she had left to drive herself in that last stage, because she knew that the instant these flying monsters reach her, they would tear her into shards. Biting down her lip hard, she forced herself to run just a little faster. Just a little more. Her heart was pounding so loud like drum sounding wildly in her head as she felt them getting nearer with each minute almost catching up to her.By now she could clearly feel the touch of their foul scents around her. No! She shut her eyes tightly together but never stopped running for her life. Please… I don’t want to die….she pleaded. Not now and not here. And then, her knees went weak and she fell into a hard roll onto the ground. Ever
As the other man pinned her wrists above her head using the same invincible force, the other one reached out and began to tear off her found their puppet to fulfil their hunger.Yael twisted hard as she tried to summon her magic again. But it seemed that she was truly out and these men were too strong for her to fight back in this weakened state. Help… please no. She would rather die. Than be dishonored and assaulted. She heard the sounds of her clothes tearing and she could only shut her eyes tight as tears fell from her eyes when she felt the man opening her legs and restraining them.Their laughter became loud and unruly as she felt the man’s gigantic hand touch her legs. She screamed in her head again when suddenly, the hands that was now on her thigh and wrists were gone. It took her a second to realize that she was no longer physically restrained. The gag placed on her mouth was also gone and she could speak.She quickly moved her body and opened her eyes to make sense of what w
After they had left the place, Rex took Yael to the place he had appeared from when he went through the portal. The place was safe as he had looked around and found there was fresh water lake in that place. He needed to take his woman to that place to clean herself and even heal.In the lake, if anyone was observing, they would be able to see Rex holding Yael in his arms, dipping her into the water. He had dive in the lake with her in his arms. He had seen Yael’s injuries.When Rex first come in to this world and found the lake he was shocked to find out that the lake was like the pond that surrounded the fountain of magic in Crystal city, and when he dipped in it the first time he came, he felt some strange warmth cozying through him. And from what he heard from their queen, that the water in the pond around the fountain of magic could heal, he tried testing this lake and it was true this lake’s water could heal.He had cut his arm and dipped it in the water and it closed up. This w
Yael trailed off and Rex patted her back understanding what she meant. Yael exhaled and the continued. “Those men had powers they may have used some magic to make me unconscious but they underestimated me. I woke up early before they reached the place they were taking me. I had caught them off guard and attacked them making them release me and that was how I managed to escape and the men had chased after me. I ended up in that strange forest and…" Yael’s voice grew weaker and stopped. Rex pulled her head close to his chest and she felt his lips coming to rest against her head."Thank you love," his husky voice echoed, a little taken aback, "Thank you for holding on until I arrived. Thank you for persisting and fighting…I was… I so was horrified that I would be too late. I thought I was going to go mad when I found out you were missing. If I didn't find you… if I was too late… I'm sure it would not be the same again... I don’t think I would be able to live. This is the first time I am
“What of the soldiers did they follow her in?” the elderly woman asked again. “They came and reported it to the king and the king was not happy that they abducted a person from the other side as you know that the king never wants any foreigner to come into our world so the king ordered them to go look for her. From some sources, I heard that the two men were smitten by the ladies appearance and I would too, she was as white as snow and so smooth. She was beautiful”Rex smiled at that complement and nodding his head in acceptance. His woman was so beautiful second to the queen. Yael who saw her man smiling just shake her head helplessly but she was flattered by the woman’s comment.“Okay, so what happened to them did they enter the forbidden forest?”“I don’t know but what I know is that the two guard have not been seen since they went looking for that woman. My guess is that they might have entered in that forest. Fools!”“Those fools might have really entered that forest just to look
A day had pass but the portal had not open Yael started to get worried that they may end up stay in this hostile place for life, she misses home. Rex saw this and held her hand in comfort, “hey, don’t give up we will leave this place soon, just have faith okay?” he told her while rubbing her hands softly. The intensity of his voice sent shivers through Yael’s body as she stared into those hypnotic black eyes."Are you listening to me?" he pinched her cheeks with his warm hand and Yael caught her lower lip between her teeth, realizing that he seemed to be more and more eye-catching to her by every passing moment. His gaze alone could turn her to a block head.Suddenly, she grabbed his hand and bit two of his fingers, shocking Rex as he froze and became a statue. "I refuse to be the only one being condensed to an idiot like this every time." She muttered under her breath, then she smirked at him as she licked his fingers then let go and become serious again."Okay let’s concentrate, if
Rex reached the station were the alpha and his comrades were around evening hours. When he reached them, the men were happy to see him and they knew Yael was safe. “How are you bro, you are glowing!” Miguel commented and Rex just blush but didn’t reply the naughty man. He went to the alpha who was talking to Kwan, Derek and Wang. When Nicklaus saw him he smiled faintly at him, “is Yael okay?” he asked and rex bowed, “yes your majesty Yael is safe and in Crystal city now. Thank you.”“What of my wife how is she doing?”“Her majesty is doing great and she looks happy. She gave me this letter to give to you. Rex said handing the letter Tiana had given him before he left. Nicklaus took the letter hurriedly and from the scent coming from it he could tell that his wife wrote it. He smiled and then left to a quiet place to read the letter.[My liegeI know I have not been in contact with you for long but don’t worry I am fine and our little angel is fine too. I just don’t want to distract yo
Imagine living in a world full of fiery, feral beings, hiding in the shadows, roving in our dreams, creeping under our skin. Eavesdropping, manipulating our minds, and exploring our bodies. They are savages, beasts but some of them are companions and childhood friends. Some are dangerous, others even more dangerous. They live amongst us. Some of us call them Demons, vampires but some of them should never be called….There is one man. A mysterious silver-eyed stranger who keeps appearing in her dreams. Who is he and what does he want?

Nicklaus sat at the end of the table. To his right side, his family were sitting and to his left side the family who had saved him. They were dining and chatting happily. Nicklaus looked at each one of them and warmth filled his chest.Once in his life, he had been completely alone. He had no mother at all and no father who cared for him. His siblings were his main enemies and he had no friends. There was no one who knew what he was and no one had cared to know. Even he didn't know who he was. He had been confused, sad, lost and alone. He had given up on life. Until he met her. His wife.The woman who brought light in his dark world, the woman who brought happiness on his gloomy world. The woman who warmed his cold heart and comforted him when he was alone and sad and defended him when he was bullied. She took the darkness away and borough happiness and bliss in his life. Not only did she bring happiness, she gave him a priceless gift their daughter.Tiana. His joy and day light. His
When Tiana heard his footstep she looked up and put the letter away quickly. There were tears in her eyes that she tried to hide."Is your mother fine?" Nicklaus asked as he walked closer.Tiana nodded. "She is fine." She smiled giving him a comforting look. Nicklaus sat next to her on the bed. "When do you want to go and see her? Or do you want her to come here?” He asked hating to see her sad. They had planned to meet Tiana’s mother, but back then Tiana postponed it because of pregnancy and after giving birth raising a child took most of her time. Tiana mother was also queen mother and had a lot of thing to do back in Nephus. But the two would always write letter for each other.Tiana looked at Nicklaus, she has been planning to meet her mother but she had to postpone it. “Not any time soon, Briella is still young to travel.” She said then carefully she reached for Briella. Once Briella was in her arms a smile lit up her face."I can't believe she grew so fast. It feels like I gave
Six months later.The sun shone brightly in the blue sky and the warm seasonal breeze spread the scent of flowers in the air. But despite the beautiful weather and view, all Nicklaus could do was stare at his now six-month-old daughter in his arms. Nothing was more beautiful to him in this world.The last six months of his life had been a blessing. He was surrounded by people he cared for. His wife, his daughter, his mother even his father. The relationship between Nicklaus and his father had become better since that talk they had six months ago. Now Uziah was even living with them in the castle but sometime his parent would go back to their hidden nest. What more could Nicklaus wish for?Tiana was well and healthy, and an amazing mother. She was also a wise empress. Nicklaus was proud of his wife. Now being half demon, half witch, she became even stronger and emitted magnificence and confidence. Now he wasn't afraid to hurt her as before and they could go wide with their activities…
"Your Majesty. I need to clean the princess." The midwife said with a pleading look when Nicklaus didn't want to let go of his daughter.Tiana chuckled. "Okay Klaus give the baby to the midwife so she could clean her and then I can feed her.” She said and Nicklaus unwillingly handed Briella over to the midwife carefully.But he had forever to spend with these two precious people and he began by spending time with them today. He was still very emotional and all he wanted to do was hold both his daughter and wife in his arms. As they lay in their bed, Nicklaus leaned in and planted a kiss on Tiana’s forehead."Thank you for this beautiful gift. Love you so much wife." He said and then looked at their daughter who was sleeping between them."Love you too Klaus…" Was all Tiana said, as she was falling asleep as well. He could see the exhaustion on her face.Nicklaus kissed her on the forehead one more time before slowly getting out of bed. His mother had kept her distance, probably letti
And then the day came, after a few painful days, the pain hit Tiana like never before. She remembered telling the midwife to just take the baby out and make it all end and sometimes she really thought she would die. The pain was so much that she felt her mind go numb. Then she heard the cry of her child and the pain fled to the back of my head in a flash, so far back she didn't even know or care that she was in pain few seconds ago. The melodious cry of her baby was enough for her to forget all the pain she went through just seconds ago. All she wanted was to hold her child."You have given birth to a princess, Your Majesty." The midwife said sounding sympathetic. Everyone knew that Tiana always thought that her child was a boy while the emperor always wanted a girl and would always call it little princess and the couple would always end up quarrelling about the gender of their child. The midwife was just sympathetic because Tiana didn’t get a boy like she always wanted but a girl th
One night as Rita and Tiana spent time together but Rita seemed sad and absent. "What's wrong?" Tiana asked. But riata being Rita just shook her head. "Nothing.""Is it about your marriage? Did you and Kwan have a fight?""No, we didn’t have a fight, Kwan have been so sweet and understanding. It about my brother, I think he know about Kwan being a demon.” Rita said.And Tiana almost laughed out loud but pushed it down by coughing instead. She found it funny that this was the reason why rite was so distracted. Derek and Kwan had been together during the war and even if he didn’t know about Kwan’s true nature in the past, he would have learnt about it during the war in human land. so hearing Rita’s concern, Tiana found it cute but she could not blame her, the woman was not there during the war, and dint know what might have happened there so too her, she still thinks her brother who is the ruler of all werewolves doesn’t know about demons and that Kwan is one of them. So cute and innoce
Five-month later….Thing were in line, the affected kingdoms like Nephus and Zavion were already back in their feet. Human clan had Leo as their king with twelve other rulers of each state. And the same was for other clans too with Nicklaus and Tiana being the supreme leaders. Crystal city was back in its full glory under the leadership of Yael and Rex who were now married and Yael was expecting a child too. Everything was peaceful and harmonious and those who were not happy about unify of the land, were now happy about it after seeing and experiencing the benefit of it.On Tiana side, her pregnancy was now big and showy. Pregnancy was not easy as she thought. It may be a happy thing but it had its difficulties, it come with insecurities and body changes that first time may shock you and on top of that was fear, she realized that as her stomach grew. She became more and more afraid and worried, she was worried about all the things that could go wrong during labor. The stories she read
“You may live…”“Thank you so…” Rafael thanked Nicklaus cutting him from completing his word but was cut off by Nicklaus next words “but… you will show Leo all the hidden labs in this kingdom and other kingdoms. Don’t try to lie because I can read you mind. If you don’t want to die like your master… give us the name of all the hidden labs and tell us everything you know and you will live. You choice.” Nicklaus said leaving Rafael to Kwan who the handed him to Leo and his men. “He will give you names and places of all the hidden labs, destroy them and then you can see what to do with him.” Kwan told Leo before following Nicklaus.Nicklaus’ group didn’t lose much in the battle. The casualties they suffered in terms of deaths and injured were still in an acceptable range. And those who were injured and died were the vampires. The demons had no casualties on their side. Gabriel Abel Noah and Maria were dead and Rafael was imprisoned by Leo as they continued uncovering secret layouts of N
