Lord Adonis and Audrey set out to visit Henrietta grave.

They bought flowers with them and as they walked through the silence and gloomy place that house many whose flesh had given way to their skeletons, Audrey found her tears flowing without her consent.

Soon they were in front of Henrietta's grave, "Granny, I'm here. How are you doing? I'm sorry it took me some time to come visiting and I don't know when next I'll be visiting. I'm doing well so you don't have to worry about me. Take care of yourself at the other side and extend my love to my parents, I love you so much." Audrey said tearfully as she placed her hands on the grave.

"I once met your grandmother in her last moments, now that you're here I can see why she worried about you. If you keep crying, I'm afraid she won't be able to rest in peace"

"You are the one that took my grandmother's life?" Audrey could not hide the shock in her voice.

"Her soul" Lord Adonis corrected.

"What difference does it make?"

    "Are you alright?" Lord Adonis asked as he crashed into Audrey, a groan escape from his mouth as his eyes turn crimson red. He touched his chest as he could feel his torrent of energy fading out."Ouch" a painful sound escape Audrey's mouth as they both landed on the ground, her hands got bruised in the process with some blood stain plastered over it, she was hurt but swallowed it on seeing Lord Adonis in such a bad state.She wasn't sure of how to relate with him after his confession but she pulled herself together to care for him first before worrying about other things. "What is wrong with you my lord?" "Shush" he placed a finger on her lips while scanning the entire place for a safe place. The bloodthirsty beast seems to be heading towards their direction and also it seems the beast was not alone as he could feel a witchcraft aura alongside with it. "Come here" He held her hands as they both hid at the back of Henrietta's grave.The space behind Henrietta's grave was too small to

    "Maybe our efforts wasn't futile after all, Lord Adonis is badly hurt, it would take time for him to recuperate and that would buy us some time." Swift sounded excited at the sight in front of him."Does betraying our master makes you happy that much?" Genevieve wasn't impressed, deep down inside of her, she wouldn't want to hurt Lord Adonis but on a second thought, Swift was right. there was nothing greater than keeping her life."Keeping our lives does."Ichneumon made his way towards Audrey, there was something inviting about the way she smell and was soon standing right in front of her.Audrey couldn't help but flinch while crawling out of her hiding place, She could swear she has never seen such an hideous creature even in books but seeing one right in front of her tightened her stomach.She made to run to save herself but couldn't bear to leave Lord Adonis all by himself who had put himself out there to protect her, she made her way beside Lord Adonis who had passed out.

    Lord Adonis woke up from his slumber feeling tight chested. He looked around and found himself in an unfamiliar place. "Where am I?" He looked around again and saw a portrait of Osman hanging on the wall. "I must be in Osman's room but how did I get here?" He tried recalling and flashes of the previous night came rushing into his head. "Audrey" he grasped as he stood up but recoiled back to the bed due to the sudden pain in his head and chest.Genevieve walked in, "my lord" she bowed her head to pay homage."How did I get here?""I bought you here""There was a maiden with me last night, where is she?" Lord Adonis asked in a nonchalant manner while silently hoping Audrey was sound and safe."She is sleeping in my quarters"Trying to stand on his feet again. "I should see for myself.""My lord, you should rest a little more besides you're still in a very bad shape, the lady as well needs all the rest she can get""You're right and I must commend you for bringing us here, you've done wel

    "Why are staring at me?" Genevieve asked without hiding her hatred for Audrey."Pardon me but I have a question""Why should I answer your question?" Genevieve wasn't backing down anytime soon as she shot Audrey dead shots.Audrey noticed Genevieve coldness but she was the only one who could tell her about Swift condition. "Because it's important, I beg of you.""Make it fast, I can't stand staying here with you for another moment""A man came to my rescue yesterday and he got pretty hurt. Do you know where he is? I need to see him"Genevieve could feel rage surging through every fibre of her being. "What right do you have to ask after him?"Audrey was dumbfounded at Genevieve's outbursts, it was obvious the woman standing in front of her doesn't like her one bit. She decided to play it by the ear. "I'm worried about him, seeing him would put my mind at ease.""Are you sure you want to see him?""Yes of course""Then come with me" Genevieve lifted her finger as a gesture to Audrey to

""I have your persistence to thank Acris.""Oh you're welcome""Finally, I'll be able to retrieve my eyes""And I would be able to move my legs as much as I want without any constrain."Azrail and Acris bursted into a hearty laughter, their wishes would finally come true."Let's get started right away" Azrail who couldn't wait any more was beaming with smiles."Let's see what we have here." Acris opened the book and started reading through the conditions necessary to carry out the ritual when he noticed something weird. "Azrail, there is a clause written in the book we ain't prepared for?""Read out, I'm all ears." Azrail listened with rapt attention."To get, you must give in the same measure.""What does that mean?""Let me think," Acris thought hard and long before coming up with something "I think it simply means to get an eye, you must give up an eye and to get a leg you must give a leg.

    "An unfamiliar man attacked me in Lord Adonis chambers, that was the last thing I recalled before I woke up finding myself here." Ceren explained"A strange man huh? But according to second master, no one can infiltrate or leave this place as they pleases. If you were attacked by someone, he is most likely to be someone who had always been here. Is a death agent too?""I don't know for sure but if you were kidnapped by second master and I was kidnapped by this unknown man, he is likely to be in cohorts with second master.""Are you saying second master and this strange man might be working together to harm us?" Realization suddenly dawn on Lucia."The odds are high, how better would you explain our being here despite working in different chambers?""Makes sense. You seems to be more intelligent than you appear." Lucia nodded her head as she agreed with Ceren's deduction."I know a lot more than you think I do" Ceren kept a straight face.The bell rang, a signal for the girls to conver

    Lord Adonis and Audrey got back to the palace of ice and soul without saying a word to each other. Their journey back had been a silence one.Each of them was lost in their own worlds trying to navigate their thoughts. "Was it wise of me to have returned with him despite knowing he wants my heart?" Audrey found herself asking the same question over and over again. "He would have harmed me if he wanted to right? But he didn't. Maybe he is just waiting for the right time, he hurt me once, he could always do it at his convenience." Audrey was caught in between her thoughts. "Does it mean despite being evil, he has some traits of being good?" Her head was about to explode from her thoughts."I thought this bodily pain was the only weakness I had to deal with. Who would have predicted that someday a human would pose as another weakness to me, the king of death? A bigger one at that." Lord Adonis heart was filled with a bittersweet kind of pain.They both walked to the main hall, their foo

    Audrey decided against going to Azrail, she made up her mind to go to Lord Adonis since she was certain he had nothing to do with Lucia's and Ceren's disappearance.Besides going to him would avail her the opportunity of checking on how he is faring and inform him about Lucia's and Ceren's disappearance. She would be killing two birds with a stone, not even his temper could stop her.As she moved closer to Lord Adonis chambers, she heard a studding sound. She applied caution and tiptoed meeting the door opened. She peeped through and what she saw was alarming.Lord Adonis had been reduced to a punching bag by a face she had never seen before while Azrail was having fun watching the rare scene."I never would have believed in centuries to come that the Almighty Lord Adonis would be taken down so easily." Azrail laughed out hard revealing his dentition."I told you right, he's been weakened to the core of his being, less valuable than a rat" Acris bragged."We wouldn't have to do much r

    Bethany looped her hand around the crook of Adonis' arm as they walked down the path.It was winter now and though the roads were filled with snow, her life was filled with joy. She was happy, more happy than she had ever been. With Adonis in her life, she had had beautiful experiences and she wanted those experiences to continue. Well, today another beautiful experience was set to occur and she did not know how to react to it."Do not worry. You would not miss me too much." Talina replied back to her raging thoughts."I would definitely miss you. You have been in my body since I was a baby, how do I live without you?" Bethany said to her."You have Adonis now and now, your body is sitting enough to function on its own. Most importantly, it is time for me to get the rest I have so desperately wanted." Talina replied in Bethany's head."Are you okay?" Adonis squeezed Bethany's hand. "I am just asking Talina if it is necessary for her to leave my body? I am already used to having her

    Adonis ran up to Bethany's parents to ensure they were safe. If Bethany was going to give herself up for her parents, he may as well ensure that they do live and that her sacrifice is not in vain. He could never trust Kalta. The blood-sucking demon could decide to kill them even after having Bethany and it was the more reason he wanted Kalta dead.Just as he was about to take them somewhere safe, Bethany's mom whispered in a very weak voice, "What is that bastard going to my daughter?"Adonis immediately spun his head in the direction of Kalta and his body grew weak from the sight before him. Kalta's lips were buried deep into Bethany's neck, drinking her blood. "Kalta!" He yelled and stretched forth his hands, this time around ready to bring down the entire palace and the world way if he had to. Everything in the direction of Adonis' hands began to freeze, traveling so fast that there was barely any time to react to the ice cold that took over everything. But not Kalta. The power

    A strong rush of adrenaline filled Adonis as he ended the lives of the death agents in the place. His entire being was filled with anger and hatred, he found his anger depleting as he sniffed life out of the death agents, so he continued to sizzle them to nothingness, completely ignoring Kalta. Talina felt super proud of Adonis, especially now that she saw a strong possibility of them winning this battle. She knew that with most of the death agents out of the way, killing Kalta would be easier. The moment she saw Kalta stand up from his throne with a death glare in his eyes, she immediately activated her shield. She knew how sneaky Kalta could be and she was not ready to risk anything being around him. "Kalta, you better give up now. Your men are retreating and soon enough, you will be left alone with no protection." She yelled at him."You know, I can never give up, but be certain that you will never see your parents ever again." He said and balled his hands into fists and began t

    Talina saw the fear in the eyes of the death agents and wondered what was going on. The ones around her had all stopped in their tracks and were exchanging looks with one another. She immediately swung her head in the direction where this fear was emanating from and found that more than half of Kalta's men had been frozen to death by Adonis's magic. "Great job!" She praised him and took on a defensive stance at the rest of the death agents. "Come on. I can't wait to kill all of you." "You all have the chance to leave here with your lives intact. Do not allow a coward like Kalta to ruin your lives." Adonis warned the rest of the death agents who were standing by the other side contemplating if they should fight him or not.The death agents exchanged looks among themselves and stared at one another weighing their options of of living or fighting to their certain death. Kalta saw the decision his men were struggling to make and knew that if he did not do something really quick, this b

    Kalta's blood boiled as he realized it had been a full day and Bethany and Adonis were not at his palace yet. Bethany was supposed to be back here, begging him to release her parents and willingly offer her heart and her blood to him. He stared at her mother who had been in the trance-like look for hours. She had definitely made the connection and except if Bethany did not care about her parents, she was supposed to be here. Well, there was nothing a little more pain could not guarantee. He thought and squeezed his arms at the woman’s body. She let out a loud yell of pain and Mr. Blake fell to the floor and clasped tightly to his hand. "Please, have mercy on my wife. You have put her in a lot of pain already." The man begged. "Well, your daughter does not think I have put her in enough pain. All of these would kindly end if your daughter comes here now. It is all in her hands." He chuckled and tightened his fist harder on the woman's body. The entire palace of Ice and soul shook w

    Talina stared at the tiring look on Adonis face and knew that if they were going to face Kalta like this, they might just be finished in seconds. She knew Adonis was powerful, but he had yet to harness and master his powers and if he wanted to defeat Kalta at his palace, then he needed to put some more effort in. The problem however was that they had no time and her body was already getting weaker from the Kalta was sending her way.She tried to convey her disappointment to him, but the pain rolling off her body did not permit her to talk. Bethany was in so much pain and it was taking a toll on her."I am so sorry," Adonis said as he rushed to her. He hated to see her in pain and it was weakening him in ways he could not explain. It was the more reason he could not channel his energy in the right direction right now. "You'd better be, because if those weak blows of yours are what you want to win Kalta with, then I am sorry to tell you, but we would be toast as soon as we enter into

    Kalta watched the man beg him a thousand times to have mercy on his wife. He could see the love between them and it reminded him so much of his love affair with Talina. *Fifty Years Ago*He had been a low-ranking death agent and as it was usual for death agents of his rank, he was bullied and sent off to silly assignments. On this day, he was returning from an assignment when he came in contact with some powerful witches. He had not been scared of them as he was a death agent, but when they launched an attack on him, he knew he had to fight back. Unfortunately for him, his powers were no match for the witches. He was on the brink of death and was getting ready to breathe his last when he saw a swift flash of magical energy swizz in. The witches were confused by her sudden appearance and she used that to her advantage, taking a swift blow at them. Before the witches could make sense of what she was doing, she had sent them all to the ground. “Who are you?” He asked when she offered

    Adonis fluttered his eyes open and was welcomed by the cool sweet ambience that was the fairy's house. There was peace in the air and everything was happy. He could feel the happy energy emanating from this place and he wished he had known this place sooner. He sat up and touched the wound on his shoulder. It was almost completely healed and he could use his arms as he wanted. “Ah! I see you are awake.” The fairy walked up to him with a smile on her face. "Yes, I am. Thank you so much for helping my wound heal." Adonis answered, his heart swelling with gratitude. “Kid, you should not thank me. You should thank Talina. But no matter what, ensure that the death that pursued you in here doesn’t follow us as well.” She warned. Adonis swallowed at the woman's word. It has never been his intention for anyone to be hurt because of him and he was certain he would be out of their village as soon as possible to avoid Kalta from hurting these kind hearted people. "I promise, no harm would c

    Kalta stormed from one corner of his room to the next. This was not how he had imagined any of this playing out. He was supposed to kill the Espino and be the strongest being in the world.He was supposed to be celebrating his victory at this point, but here he was with no Espino. To make matters even worse, Adonis was with her and he knew Talina hated him enough to want to kill herself just so that Adonis would get the power he so craves. "No, I would never allow this to happen." He yelled and ran a hand on his study desk, throwing off a couple of books seated there. He let out a breath and slumped on his chair, knowing that much, if not all, of these was his fault. If he had just plunged the knife into her heart earlier while she was still bound to the floor, he would not be going through this. It was too bad that he had allowed his emotions to cloud his sense of reasoning."If only you had been decisive enough, Kalta. If only you had kept your head in the game, none of this would
