Chapter 15
Daeira was happily hopping around, talking to the king on his wide garden. She recalled him of her life stories again. Walking backwards while she conversed to him, she suddenly tripped but immediately regained her balance then smiled widely to the king. She frowned when she saw him on the ground. When she went near him, she gasped in horror when the king had clutched to his wounded chest.
"H-how can you do this?" GD asked him in bloodied mouth.
"Wh-what are you talking-," then she saw herself carrying a bloodstained sword that she let go of it as if she was being burned.
"I-it's not me." She cried but instead she was shown thousands upon thousands of bodies on his garden all dead and reddening his green garden with their bloods. Over her head, there were loud explosions and much bombings and killings. It was followed with earsplitting&nb
Daeira bid GD to stop on the side when she saw an undiscovered part of the island with calm waves slamming the shore."Let's go dip in the water." she said while running ahead of him as he turned off the engine of the bike and slowly followed her behind. She then directly dived in to the water and waved at GD who chose to sit on the sand. "Hey come on!" she called out while he gestured her a cigarette before putting it on his mouth and lighted it.She then dismissed it and swam excitedly in a much deeper part of the beach and hold her breath to dive. With a squinted eyes, she can see different colors of reefs and she wanted to touch it and take a closer look. But she left her goggles in the boat. So instead of fretting about it, she just smiled while playing for a flounder who passed before her eyes before it got suck away from her into a small cavern in between the rocks. Aware of her limit of holding her breathe, she looked up to the sur
For the rest of their tour around different beaches, Daeira wasn't left out alone into dipping herself into the water just like now in the beach of Cuba. There were people who were literally gawking at Daeira enclosed in between the man with strange tattoos on his body while lazily drinking a beer The king wrapped his other arm to her naked waist as if trying to stop her from escaping."GD-ah,Iwanttogointhewater."Daeiracomplainedonceagainwhenshecan'thavethefreedomtodiveinthewaterssinceherdrowningincidentinBoraBora.TheywereinthelastescapadeatCubaandGDhadn'tletherinthewatersunattendedsince."No."hesaidwhilepullingherclosertohim.
Morning came and Daeira had finished her breakfast and took a bath. She was just lazily strolling around the palace's hallway while greeting the door keepers, the angry bulls, as they opened the door for her to go outside the palace. She decided to visit the wonderful fountain in the garden where she had no choice but to pass over the king's area. About to turn to the left, she stopped on her tracks when she heard Kalil's voice along with the king's."Why are you even wasting your time to that puny little human? Doing all those dumb shits and you adjusting your powers for her?" Kalil said. "I can take all the onset of your power and I wouldn't turn into worthless rubles or even be on fire when you can't control your strength."GD didn't say anything to that while he continued to wear an earring made of black metal from Venus. He had it made to suppress his powers which he never consider doing before his bride came in the picture.
Before Daeira noticed it, she reached the uttermost part of the palace where she thought no one was frequent to. Tired and dizzy, she slumped back to the wall and slid down. She then turned to her shoulder and grimaced at the darkening wound in there. Right. She can't have it treated since no one can see her now. She ate two fruits of invisibility and she had no idea how long would it take for her to come back again. So instead of stressing out about it, she ignored the pulsing pain and let herself slowly slid down to the floor."Just a nap. I'm tired." she told herself when the darkening of her eyes was an indication of blood poisoning. Still not closing her eyes, she saw her blood in the floor as she reached for it and doodle it playfully before she weakly smiled. Her visions were accompanied by the colorful lights floating on her while she can't think of anything but a twinkle song. She closed her eyes while humming the song.
GD's eyes widened while held his other palm with his other palm too. His breathing hiked up in concentration while he chanted another spell again.Thecentaursandhuntersputmoredistancefromhim,hidingLeerabehindthem.Hispowersleakedsomuchthatitfeltoverpouringontheirflesh.Likeinvisiblebladescuttingthroughthem.HakyiandOsiriswhowerebothinfronttodefendthetracerswincedwhentheyreceivedmoreoftheking'spowersdirectly.The king felt more alarmed, sensing she was drifting away again.

"Do you remember that time when I played at my best friend's house, dad?" Daeira asked while swinging her hands while walking with his dad towards that light. He said it’s gonna be comfortable in there. "Of course darling," he said while not sparing her a glance. Daeira looked up to him and saw something on his face. Black eyes. Her dad shared with her an amber one. Not black. "Dad? Do you remember the name of our dog who bit you?" she asked while not taking her eyes off his blank face before he smiled to her. "Can't really remember that dog dear but it bit me so painfully." he said while Daeira nodded in response while slowing down her pace, still staring at her dad in a smiling face. He turned to her when she stopped walking. Instead she began stepping back, grinning to him. "Whatareyoudoingdarling?Doyouwanttoplay?"heaskedpleasantly.
An earth nymph had never bothered to knock on the bride's door, thinking that she had reported to her class early in the morning. And as is the general case, when she cleaned her room, she went inside the large quarter and gone first to the direction of the bed only to be frozen on her spot seeing the Aryan king had joined his bride in bed. He slept with his arms wrapped to Daeira. She had her back against his chest, making him looked like hugging her from her behind. The nymph unknowingly smiled while biting her lower lip while she traced her way out the bride's chamber. Getting out the door, she encountered Hakyi and Osiris waiting outside the door. "Aretheystillsleeping?"HakyiaskedKana,theearthnymph. "Yes."Kanaanswered."Maybebringyourbusinesstothekinglaterifitwasn'turgent." Osiris and Haky

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
