Although the couple was serious with their movements, the little child found it amusing and he giggled to show his amusement. Calhoun and Diana turned to stare at the boy who saw them as clowns. Calhoun didn't know if he could continue with what he had wanted to do."Diana..." He called. Diana turned to stare at him and he went silent."What?" She asked. "Why did you call me?""You should stop staring at me like that, you're playing unfairly." He accused."Playing unfair?" Diana asked. She was taken aback by his accusations. "How can you so easily accuse me of such a thing?""When you stare at me in such a manner, it makes me feel as if I'm lost in a world unknown. A place where I can't feel anything anymore." "You're talking gibberish," Diana said, giggling. "But I think I get what you're saying.""You do?""Mhmm." Diana nodded, smiling. She grabbed the collar of his shirt and her hand slid down to the center. "You used to make me feel that way, once upon a time."Calhoun smiled. "T
Diana stood up but was frozen in her spot. She could endure being attacked by so many soldiers but not when her son was with her. She slowly freed herself from her frozen state and took a deep breath."Governor Eugene." She called with a small smile. "How delightful it is to see you.""Save the faux pleasantries, Diana." Eugene refuted. "I heard about how you turned on us just because your man was shot."There were gasps and murmuring around. Everyone was wondering who the man was. Theodore in particular was confused. The only person that was shot was Calhoun. Who else could have been her man?"I don't understand, what's going on?" Theodore asked.Eugene glanced at him from the corner of his eyes. "Ah, lover wolf." He mocked."Ask the woman you love. Perhaps she can answer your question better."Theodore came out from the crowd and tried to reach out to Diana. She remained in the same position, not moving at all. Her eyes followed every of Theodore's movements."Diana, what is he talk
Diana was in the midst of a heated battle, focused on the enemies surrounding her. She was unaware that Calhoun was searching for her, and even more unaware that Eugene had seen Calhoun and wanted to kill her before he could find her. As Eugene raised his sword against her, Diana felt a sense of alarm and turned quickly.Her lack of observation proved to be a fatal mistake as Eugene's sword struck her. Diana was caught off guard and had no chance to defend herself. She assumed she would die but she didn't feel a single thing. She didn't feel the pain of Eugene's sword tearing her skin and sinking into her flesh.She opened her shut eyes and was surprised to find Eugene lying a few feet away from her. She looked around, she was getting weird stares from everyone. She didn't know what had happened. But also, she couldn't ask. It wasn't the right time for questions, so she resumed the fight.Eugene lay on the ground, his failed attempt at murdering Diana still fresh in his mind. He was s
Yolanda wasn't exactly happy that Diana and Calhoun were so in sync. That had always been her wish for her and Jasyn. All the time, she mastered his tactics in battle, how he fought, the steps he took, the way he moved his body, performed a strike, or even landed when he jumped. She even went as far as to try and learn his kind, and the things they did. She just wanted to be so much like him so that they can be in sync during battle. Jasyn had been cold to everyone else except her.But seeing how Diana and Calhoun fought together, she got jealous. She began to hit harder. She tried to match Diana's speed but no matter how fast she tried, Diana always topped her by far.Grunting, she somersaulted in the air and sent two kicks toward Diana. Diana smirked at her, she put her hands together and then pushed them forward toward her, opening just her palm as she moved it.Yolanda didn't see what happened, she could only feel a strong force push her further away from Diana and when she looke
Diana's gaze was locked onto Eugene, she watched every one of his actions. How he took the baby from Julitta and then raised his sword to hit Julitta away from his side. Diana watched wide-eyed as Julitta's flesh tore open and blood gushed out.Somehow seeing Julitta's blood turn the snow red made her satisfied. That was her payment for betraying her."Diana... She's injured, do something!" Calhoun yelled out. Diana refused to listen. She smirked at Julitta's blood as it flowed out. She was satisfied. She turned to glare at Eugene."Diana! Do something!" Calhoun yelled again. "It's Julitta.""So? What if it's Julitta? She betrayed me, handing my child over to Eugene. Why should I save her? She is the one who trusted Eugene and now you're asking me to save her?"Calhoun was bewildered. "Are you out of your mind?""Why do you care?" Diana yelled back. "Are you in love with her? Tell me, Calhoun. Have you been secretly seeing her behind?"Calhoun moved back, feeling a little guilty. Why
Everyone expected that Diana would be killed but their groan at Eugene was surprising. Calhoun wasn't on the ground anymore, he was behind Eugene with a small dagger. After being stabbed, Eugene turned around and whacked Calhoun but was surprised to see that the man did not move at all.When Diana told them about Coco being his child, the curse was completely broken and all his powers that had been locked were easily restored. The sorcerer who had cursed him had finally lost the rest of his powers and Calhoun was the one who gained them.The powers were potent and they healed him immediately, restoring him to his full glory. His eyes opened at the moment when the blast happened and he saw how Eugene hurried to Diana to kill both her and his son. He quickly went to fight. So Coco was his son and not the son of the soldier? How nice.He immediately stabbed Eugene with one of his poison-filled daggers. He knew the wound would close up instantly and the man would feel as if nothing had ha
Felix and Evander saw the pain in her eyes. She was trying hard to not cry. She watched them crawl around in an attempt to get up and she shook her head."The antidote." Felix groaned. "His pocket."Diana walked around George's dead body. She slipped her hand into his pockets and searched until she found the antidote. When she did, she threw it to Felix. She was too tired to do anything and somehow, she wanted to die. Maybe if she died, she would not need to feel the pain of not seeing Calhoun anymore.Previously she had lived knowing that Calhoun was still alive and she could see him whenever she came to Wisteria. But now, she didn't have any such thoughts again. George had stabbed him in the heart and if the powers he possessed could not save him from the attack, how could it heal him?His skin had turned dark and his eyes were colorless, lifeless. Diana refused to shed any tears. She sat beside his body in the snow. Thrice, his blood had touched the snow. Three times he fought, his
A younger version of Calhoun stood before a huge oak tree that sat in the backyard of the castle. He always went there to calm his mind especially when he was taunted by any of his cousins. They were all living in the castle with him and their grandparents.Marjun had just died and all hands were pointing to him. He didn't know how anyone in his right mind would accuse him of killing his grandfather. Everyone saw how close they were and his cousins were jealous of it. He agreed, his mother always warned him to be mindful of how close he was to his grandfather, knowing that jealousy was the mother of all other sins.He never listened. Just this week, a call came for him to visit his grandfather's chamber and when he got in, he saw that the man had been murdered. The man was murdered in the same way he had explained to him that this was the only way he had to be killed for him to die.Calhoun's fears became real that day. Now all his cousins wanted to take over the throne. But during th
