Daeira looked around and learned that they were transported into GD's chamber. The king gently cupped her cheeks to steady her from dizzying travel. His thumb caressed her cheek and wore a somber smile as if studying her closely.
"I'll be very busy for a while," he said while his bride only grinned at him.
"Yup. I can see that. Lilooh and I will be hanging out in my room." she said, wringing her arms to his neck as his one arm placed gently to her waist while the other hand cupped her cheek. He leaned down to kissed her briefly.
As they distanced their lips from each other, Daeira trailed her hands to his neck and smiled.
"Don't be away for long, your highness." Daeira said.
"Hmm. I won't. " He promised.
Not a while, their attentions then went to the knocking in the door.
"I need to go. Behave yourself, woman."
"And you too." she countered playfully.
The Aryan king checked her bracelet and saw one ruby with the
Days passed and the Aryan king along with his finest leaders, and warriors had been into a court counsel to discuss the pressing matter that has been happening in secret at the reptilian tribe. With Razzi was allowed to voice his side who explained the real face behind the attacks by the high-bred monsters, everyone understood why there had been those involved violent species from the Reptilian tribe now. Then there were disputes over the course of actions they would take regarding the tribe and its rogue leaders in the surface world and the underworld. The Aryan king had been considering the unanimous decisions of everybody and promised that he would give his answer the soonest. Before the court counsel was adjourned, Tabish and Kekero had pleaded to the Aryan king to finally sire an heir before the black moon arrive. “We may be imposing you this much your highness, but the bride is well and strong to bear you a child.” Tabish persuaded while the other leaders nodde
His double black earrings dance when he slightly moved and Daeira couldn’t be any more distracted at his perfection. “Are you all attending parties in faraway lands?” Daeira finally asked while the king just smiled. “I’m not actually calling it a party but a ceremony.” he corrected. “Oh…so, are you leaving now? I’ll be fine here.” Daeira assured but he only chuckled. “No. It’s not actually a ceremony without you in it,” he said while the rest of the people waited in silence they they eyed the royal couple. Lilooh had subtly gone to Razzi who welcomed her with a brief kiss on the cheek. Daeira tilted her head in confusion, “What do you mean, GD-ah?” The king stood up and held his hand to her while she accepted his hand, “We’re getting married today, woman.” Daeira stiffened at his declaration and actually waited for the moment that he would say that she had been a prank but it didn’t. Her eyes widened, realizing his seriousness.
Daeira didn’t notice she had stayed for too long in awestruck as her nymphs literally had approached her to proceed walking. Daeira then snapped back her focus towards the altar and saw the king waiting in there. That handsome dark lord whose eyes never left her since the moment she entered the hall. Even there was cheering among the crowd, the king was only keenly aware of his bride’s expressions and her breathing accelerated after being caught in surprise with the numberless Aryans in the concourse. But what he didn’t notice was his own breathing upon beholding such sight of his bride in the purest white with her brunette hair had lazy curls escaped from the knots of elastic citrine bands. The only contrasting color she wore what her lava ruby bracelets and none else since she had hidden the two gray stones in the safekeeping of her nymphs, not wanting to consume them with manipulations. She thought of it as a treasure from the planet Pluto where his parents gave it to her as a gi

Drinking tea in the kiosk, Daeira received a confirmation of the attack that will soon befall in the Agartha. The Nazis' movements shall be dependent on her action in the palace. If she was deemed successful in isolating the king first, then everything shall fall according to the plans. For the invasion to happen, the strongest being in Agartha shall be removed first and the burden falls on her shoulders. "Here's your sweets, milady." One water nymph went in her direction with a tray in her hands. With a quick smile at the creature, Daeira hid her darkening expression and received the sweets. "Thank you," she said and sipped on her cold tea. "Perhaps I should heat it up for you, milady?" The nymphs asked, seeing it clearly losing its warmness. "No need." Daeira snapped at the creature in impatience. She wanted to be left alone to plan carefully her next steps but these bloody nymphs won't let her be since the king left for some imp
The Aryan king had opened his eyes into one unfamiliar setting of the surrounding. Upon remembering what happened in the library, his blood boiled in much rage as he moved but was only constrained of much heaviness. He saw his wrists with the black metals strapped in there as well as on his feet, body, and collar, attached to a wall of another black metal. GD's eyes directed on his front upon seeing the presence of humans inside the dungeon, looking directly at him. "So...it has been a long time, your highness." the elder man greeted him which only made GD's eyes squinted in anger at him. He acted to attack him but the constraints not only stopped him but also weakened him gradually. As if all his strengths were being sucked out from his body. "Quero."GDspattedinrecognition.Ithadbeenindeedaverylongtimesincehelastsawthisgreatleaderof&nb
Leera had attended the meeting with the other warriors again while she ignored the eyes cast before her. It was again widespread news about the king's binding spell to her as well as the fact that the king almost gave his weaknesses to her. For all they know, the king had no weaknesses at all but they were afraid that he might actually have. And to have it shared with one despicable snake creature was uncalled for. "That's it for today's meeting," Barto said, dismissing all the king's warriors this time who readily left to do their assigned duty for the day. Leera had taken her time in getting out of the court meeting hall as if she was thinking something so deeply that she didn't hear Barto calling out for her name. If Lovu hadn't stopped her from exiting the door, she would have not noticed it. "What?"Leeraaskedwhenherconcentrationwasbroken. "Barto's calling you, wench," Lovu said in d

With one girl running happily in the large hallway towards the king's court, the Minotaur couldn't even do something about it. The girl stopped on the wide door towards the court. The court's door was where two very strict Minotaur was guarding there. But her eyes lifted to the two huge gatekeepers and smiled sweetly to them."Greetingsdeargatekeepers,"shepolitelysaidwithacurtsy."Iwishtoseedaddy."OneMinotaurapproachedthegirlandsquattedtolookatherineyelevel."Princess Denayah, the king is in discussion with his hunters.

Leera shot her hand up above her head to call the attention of the two men who got inside the noisy club. She smiled mischievously when both Hakyi and Osiris were asked out by random women in skimpy clothing as they tried to get through the wild crowd. "Youbothalright?"Sheaskedwithagrin. "Thisisn'ttherendezvouswetalkedabout,Leera."Hakyicomplained. "I know. Where's the fun in following what we discussed?" Leera only said and sipped the drink she ordered from the bartender. "You said you got something to tell us about the royal family." Osiris pointed out and looked around. " And this isn't conducive place to discuss such matter." "Hey, go away." Hakyi just managed to scare off a guy who sat beside Leera. He then sat to the seat that the random guy unwillingly vacated. Osiris sat on Leera's left side, unintentionally forming a protective b
Daeira had woken up to the sounds of thundering after lightning stroke the sky. When she did so, she was greeted with the darkness inside her room and the rain waters hitting her window pane. Wincing over the headache, she bolted up from the bed and rubbed her eyes with sleepiness. The clock on the desk beside the bed only indicated that it was only midnight. But it almost felt like she had slept very long with that strange dream of the man. She frowned when she can't remember his name again while she racked her head for his name. None. Then she looked for her memo, remembering that she wrote his name on his dream on her pink memo card. Crazy but she did look for the memo on her drawer but it wasn't there. She had no idea why she felt uneasy all of the sudden while she frustratingly turned to her back again and found nothing in there. Her dreams inside her mind slowly became blurry for more seconds past and she was closed to forgetting the look of that
Back into her own room and ignoring how very silent the night was, Daeira was still staring at those two PTs that she did a while ago with the doctor. It was more than enough to make her quit her class for the day and go straight to her home. She even ignored those people in the house while she locked herself inside her room. Whywasshepregnant? Why? She didn't remember she gave herself into someone. Unless if she have gone wild into drinking and rocked one night stand, there was no other way for her to get pregnant out of nowhere. Bringing her hand to her stomach, it felt strange for her to feel so but it seemed to feel like there was indeed life inside her. "I'm pregnant," she said to herself and only there was the silence of her room. "I'm pregnant?" she blinked in confusion before she collapsed herself into the cushion of her bed and hugged her pillow in contemplation. "I'mpregnant?
Daeira had no idea if she should be thankful for the accompaniment of the strange guy or what. But his presence definitely put her in a good mood as she was buying for groceries. Upon reaching the counter, she looked at the goods being ran into the scanner. She wasn't planning on buying much. Most especially for herself. Her stepmom only gave her enough for the groceries for that day and she got a little saving she kept hidden from them. When the cashier said how much the bill was, she felt her throat dry when it went over the budget. "Here."theguygaveablackcardtothecashierwhoseeyesglintedinastonishmentathim. Of course Daeira what the black card entailed. Only 1% of Korea's population owned such. And that one percent belonged to the richest of the riches. She secretly observed him and realized that she hadn't introduced hersel
Hakyi and Osiris bowed their head when the Aryan king had arrived in a form of the black falcon. Despite the rain, they waited outside the balcony until the king had arrived. Back to his true form, they made way for him as he silently trudged his way inside the room, ignoring the dripping of rainwater from all over his wet robe and his disheveled lux.Following from behind him, Osiris and Hakyi remained their distance to the king even until he had himself collapsed to the couch and stared blankly in the wall."Howisit,yourhighness?"Hakyidaredtoinquire.There was a small smile drawn in his lips while he continuously directed his eyes to the empty white granite wall of Daeira's room in a mansion named for her. But of course, this place stayed unknown to the Aryan queen after all her recollections about Agartha were wiped out clean and taken by the prince of the reaper, Sirius, in exchange for not
Daeira absentmindedly looked outside her window, ignoring the cackling of her stepsisters down below along with her stepmother. The rain drops hitting the leaves of the trees outside seemed to be fascinating to her eyes right now. The sky was darkening when it was only three in the afternoon.It was the doing of the dark clouds and the heavy outpour of the rain outside. Nevertheless, there was that presence of one sole black falcon in one of the branch of the tree.Thatblackbirdagain.Its eyes filled only with pure scarlet in color and its feathers were obviously drenched with rain but it seemed unfazed as it only looked at her straight in the eyes.Instead of being scared, she felt very familiar with it. Maybe it was due to the fact that rain or shine, it always visited her.Lifting her right hand, she waved at the bird and smiled brightly at it. Her brows slightly raised when she thought she saw the
A day only passed after Leera's conversation with the chief tribe and her mind was still in a muddled mess. She kept on thinking the chief's words. In her vision, she definitely saw Daeira be a blessing to the king. Has she missed something when the vision came to her? Or did she misinterpret it?The fact that even the tribe chief confirmed that the king will certainly love his bride was already a blessing. So, to consider it a curse was unfortunate. She had no idea when would vision come again to let her see things far ahead.Although she was bid not to stalk the royal couple anymore, Leera was too stubborn to be hampered with just mere words. Besides, she heard that there will be a wedding in Thule which the Aryan king and his bride were invited to attend. She'll definitely go and see the royal couple in the excuse of the wedding ceremony.**************************************************************************Reaching the city of Thule, Leera
It would be a lie if Leera will say that she wasn't worried about Daeira's well-being whenever she was with the king. Though what she saw for that night would tell her that the king won't kill the bride out of the blue. But she learned of Hakyi and Osiris's animosity towards the bride after it was confirmed from their source how she was compromised by the Nazis and agreed to bring down the Aryan king when the time comes.IfDaeira'ssoulwon'tbereapedbythekinghimself,itmightbethroughthehunters'.Leera remembered to be severely reprimanded by the chief of her tribe to stop stalking the bride and just let the king decide what he wish to do with his bride."He'sgonnaendupkillingherandthecounselsarepushinghimtodoso."Leerareasonedwiththechieftribe.Th
