"All I see is you trying to play trick games with my mind. Too bad, I won't fall for that." Acris said with a smirk on his face."The one Pearldina had always wanted from the beginning was me, she tried on many occasions to seduce me but I had no interest whatsoever when it comes to her. She couldn't handle my rejection and...." Lord Adonis paused trying to position himself in a comfortable manner to ease his pain."And what?" Acris grabbed Lord Adonis by the collar."She must have seduced you instead""Then I'm grateful, her seduction came right on time so we can say we used each other to get what we both want. I took you down for her and she gave me the throne I've always had my eyes on.""You think you've won?""My victory is staring at you right in the face brother." Acris placed his hands at the back of Lord Adonis head.Lord Adonis scoffed at Acris words. "You wish""Let's do this after all we are brothers. If you bow before me, I would make your death painless and quick.""Don'
"Are you okay?" Audrey touched Lord Adonis face the moment she got to him.Lord Adonis quickly tossed her hand off. "Don't you dare touch me.""I'm on your side, first master.""What are you trying to do?" Lord Adonis was surprised at Audrey's sudden change in attitude."Stay right behind me, I'll protect you" Audrey gave Lord Adonis a warm smile.It was the same smile she had given him earlier, his heart was beating faster again so Lord Adonis looked away."What is going on here?" Acris asked as he watched the two lover birds. "We ain't here to watch you two display affection for one each other.""What do you think you are doing Audrey?" Azrail asked in a very pissed tone."Not letting things go your way, I won't let you hurt first master""Audrey, are you sick or something? How can you think of protecting someone you claimed to have been your tormentor?" Azrail asked puzzled."You ain't any different from him" shaking her head. "No, you're worst.""Let's have a calm conversation oka
Audrey was so out of it, seeing Azrail disappeared without a trace broke her. She hated him, yes but not to the point of death."What have I done?" She was shivering.Lord Adonis dragged his weak and battered body so he could be closer to Audrey who was still very much in shock about what had happened.He knew her heart was breaking and she must be blaming herself. Lord Adonis wrapped his arms around Audrey's trembling body. "It's fine, whatever happened wasn't your fault, you had to protect yourself.""I killed him""His greed did" Lord Adonis corrected.Audrey body couldn't handle all that had happened, she passed out."Audrey?" Lord Adonis noticed her hands dropped and the clanking sound of the ghost knife. He touched her forehead and saw she was burning up, he quickly laid her on the ground while he lay tired beside her gently caressing her with his cold hands. The real battle was just starting with Acris and Pearldina on loose.Looking at her innocent face, Lord Adonis knew he wo
Pearldina arrived at the palace of ice and soul with the strand of Audrey's hair in her hand. If Audrey was in the palace then the odds of Lord Adonis being there was high as well. She will have to be very careful if she is to meet Azrail in one piece."Icom hert veli goed" Casting a spell on Audrey's strand of hair, a crystal clear vision of Audrey appeared with her sleeping on Lord Adonis giant bed and Lord Adonis was looking at her in a loving manner, something he has never done to her before."Traitor!" Pearldina spat on the ground. "I met you way longer than she did but you fell for her huh? Never have you looked at me with such tenderness before." Her voice was bitter. "If I can't have you, then she can't."Just then she saw Lord Adonis held his chest as he spat out blood. "I knew something was definitely wrong with his dwindling icy aura, things just got easier." A malicious smile spread across her face.***Plans to invade the palace of ice and soul is in full gear.Kalta had
"You came back earlier than expected" Acris was surprised at Kalta's early arrival. "Is everything going according to plan?""Yes it is, but guess what? I've got a surprise for you my lord" Klata couldn't contain his excitement."Spill it out already, this is no time to play around" Acris yelled at Kalta's naughtiness."Your temper haven't changed a bit, have it?" Pearldina who had behind hiding behind Kalta's showed up."Pearldina" Acris stood transfixed and stunned."Don't tell me you just going to stand there and stare at me all day?" Pearldina asked before pulling him into a hug.Running his hands through her hair, "Is this really you my love?""I made it back to you my love"Holding her tighter. "I tried so hard looking for you." Acris voice was filled with so much emotions."I can imagine the worries you'd to go through because of me and I'm so sorry."Disengaging from the hug, "No my love, you don't have to be sorry. it's my fault for not being strong enough to protect you.""I
Lord Adonis watched over sleeping Audrey. She look without any worries. "I love you" he finally whispered those words that took him so long to admit into her ears.Audrey stretched her body and Lord Adonis quickly pretended to be asleep. She opened her eyes and smiled at what had just happened. She ran her hands through his handsome face. "I'm right here with you and I'm never leaving." She planted a kiss on his inviting lips.Lord Adonis stomach tightened with bubbles at her words and kiss. Just then, Audrey stomach began to make some funny sounds.Lord Adonis opened his eyes. "You're hungry?"Embarrassed, Audrey pulled the sheet to cover her face. "I'm fine" Her stomach betrayed her by making another round of tumbling sounds."I don't think you are." Lord Adonis tried pulling the sheet off her face but she wouldn't bulge. "Alright then, let me prepare you something to eat""You don't have to do that, I can fix something for me." Audrey pulled the sheet down."Lie down, my treat." L
Pearldina and Klata walked into Lord Adonis chambers.Pearldina walked to the gigantic bed, took the sheet off the bed and inhaled it smell."Mistress, what are you doing?" Kalta asked perplexed at Pearldina's strange behavior."This is what Lord Adonis smell like, it's been a while since I last inhaled his smell. I should inhale it some more.""I don't understand what you're saying mistress but I know we should be breaking through the basement right now.""His smell is addictive and intoxicating but nevermind, I have plenty of time to get drunk in his smell." Pearldina continued ignoring Klata's words."Why are bothered about how Lord Adonis smelled? Ain't you in love with master Acris?" Kalta whose patience seems to be running thin raised his voice a little."Did I just hear you scream at me?" Pearldina eyes turned crimson red. Ain't no way she was going to let herself be humiliated by a minor death agent."I dare not." Kalta bowed his head in remorse realizing his mistake."Just so
Audrey walked in the rain with Lord Adonis umbrella hovering over her head and her protruding stomach looking beautiful and elegant.The umbrella who had shielded her from her darkest night was now protecting her and her unborn child. A gift bore out of the love that exist between her and Lord Adonis.She wouldn't exchange this precious gift for anything in the world. When Lord Adonis left, she had thought she would be alone again.She had returned to the human world with the bag filled with gold but despite having such wealth at her disposal, it couldn't fill the void left by Lord Adonis. She locked herself up mourning his passing day and night and having very little to eat.Weeks after she returned to the human world, she began to feel nauseous, she knew something had changed in her body and her breast had become fuller than they were but was too sad to make any out of her body changes. But the nauseousness won't stop coupled with morning sickness, she decided it was time for her t
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
