His Caged Princess 58. A Night Of Passion
The moment the door shut behind them, Declan pushed Layana up against the door making her gasp at the sudden force, his lips crashed against hers in a rough hungry kiss, his one hand running up her thigh, slipping under her dress and grabbing her peachy behind. His other hand fondled her breast, there was something different about his touch compared to their first time. she gasped when he sucked on her neck hard, making her moan a sting of pain mixed with the pleasure she felt. Her own hands were tugging at his tunic wanting to feel his skin against her. “I missed you, Angel,” he whispered kissing her lips once more before he helped her get rid of his tunic. She bit her lip, her breasts heaving at the sight of her handsome fiancé before her. Her eyes dipping to his refined V and the large bulge in his pants. her own pussy throbbing in anticipation of what was to come. “I missed you too my love,” she whispered “and everything about you…” A sexy smirk crossed his lips, “I’m sure y
His Caged Princess 59. A Sudden Kiss
It took Declan two days and nights to put a plan in place, assigning Elian of house Halan his previous commander to take his stead. Declan sent a message to the king knowing by the time he got it, they would be far from here. Elian did not know exactly where he was going but he trusted the young knight and promised to hold up his work and continue it. The four had set out a plan of their own, starting off was to try to track down Catherina the seer, they were also going to try to find Layana’s mother, who Declan believed may have some answers to everything that was happening in Ehlesaar. Layana had not told him about James, but she knew she was going to have to at some point, but she did not have the courage to, not yet anyway. Each night Layana slept with Declan, and after three nights she could not even imagine sleep without him by her side, although they slept less and spent their time in the throes of passion, exploring each other in ways they would never tire of. They had set
His Caged Princess 60. The Spreading Darkness
It took Layana a few seconds to realise what was happening, her eyes widened as she pushed him away, her eyes flashing as she raised her hand and slapped him across the face. Hard. “How dare you!” she said her voice breaking, her eyes stinging, she wiped her lips making Kayden feel a pang of hurt at the gesture, was he so bad? “I’m sorry… I… I don’t know what overcame me,” he said looking away, a frown on his face, he didn’t regret it… even if he apologised to her, he had liked that kiss, her lips were softer than he had imagined, she tasted sweet and tempting like something you never wanted to stop tasting… but the tears in her eyes stung. “Declan was right… I shouldn’t have followed you,” she whispered, hurt clear in her voice, she turned and walked away, Kayden sighed running a hand through his hair. He had messed things up… -------- Layana walked back to the clearing where Declan had just washed his face in the stream, he was shirtless, his tattoo of a phoenix glimmering bri
His Caged Princess 61. A Burning City
Several nights had passed and the mood of the group travelling had become more sombre. The warmth of summer that they had disliked had depleted, leaving shadow cast mornings accompanied by dull weather daily. The biting darkness was laced in the air, something each could now feel, coming to a point they needed to use all their willpower not to let it consume them completely. Only Layana didn’t seem affected by the anger that was swirling around the men, however, she felt more worried with each passing day wondering how her family were in the palace. Was everyone safe? Although she didn’t talk much to Kayden, not forgiving him for what he had done, she stayed neutral with him for the sake of the mission and inside she knew something was bringing out the worst in them. What worried her was Declan’s darkness was strongest, it was not like The Dark Lords but something dangerous and full of anger. She was getting better with each passing day with training, and she continued to put her
His Caged Princess 62. The Prophecy
Layana’s eyes flew open, her heart thundering from what she had seen, things were worse than she had thought… her pale face gave away the fact that the news she held was not good. Declan crouched by her side as Aren tapped his foot, Kayden and Catherina stood silently waiting for Layana to return to them. “What did you see?” Declan asked, “Father’s ill, they think it was poisoning but he is alive, the four mages are by his side, I think it’s the only reason he is not dead yet. Myra or should I say The Dark Lord is holding the reigns over everything. Cordelia is on his side… Aurelia, I didn’t see her…” she whispered it had been a lot to take in, “Terania is fighting against a split council, most of whom are siding with Myra over her. Myra was the one who told the council her version of what happened with Zephyr, a few have silently issued an incredible bounty for anyone who can capture or kill me… an order made by Myra. I am exiled and should no longer be in this kingdom. They know I
His Caged Princess 63. Finding Her
Declan's anger flared like a fire that was eating a trail of oil. Lightning flashed in the sky and Layana closed her eyes cupping his face, “I’m ok…” she whispered, he frowned at her, how could she say she was ok? “I should have been there for you…” he said icily his eyes crackling with sparks like the sky above. She hugged him tightly trying to calm him “Which one?” “It was James, Halian died trying to protect me from a female guard under The Dark Lords influence, and James he was too far gone…” Declan sat down making her straddle him as he looked into her eyes trying to calm his raging anger, the wish to drag James out of hell and kill him all over again was strong, if only it were possible. “Did he…” he clenched his jaw unable to say the word, she cupped his face and shook her head, “No… he wasn’t able to, I killed him before he could do anything, and I didn’t even regret it…” she rested her forehead against his and he stroked her hair “I’m never leaving you alone ever aga
His Caged Princess 64. Silent Pleasure
A Silence fell over them, the sound of the rustling grass and the leaves in the trees seemed to roar in their ears. Jarabayn was not a place anyone wanted to venture to. A place the likes of Declan and Layana would never be allowed to enter if they wished to … Kayden stood up, “Jarabayn… why would she be there, the king would not have commanded it,” he said now pacing. “I don’t know… perhaps he would, he once threatened me that if I did not keep my powers under control, he would send me there as a priestess…” Layana said, Kayden frowned “Well lucky for us, as part of the Mage court I know the location,” “How long will it take?” Declan said coldly looking at the mage with contempt. The tension between them was not settling despite being together for so long “A week or so going and the same back, the last part of the journey is on foot. Lucky for us, I’m an earth mage,” he said, Declan nodded, “Then we will ride by night and day with only essential rest stops, we can’t afford to l
His Caged Princess 65. A Sincere Apology
The following day Layana awoke at sunrise, to see Kayden starting a fire, he had caught some rabbits and was already working on skinning them, “I’ve bathed already if you two want to go,” he said quietly not looking at them, promising himself he would talk to Layana after breakfast. “Hm,” Declan said coldly, he sat up thinking after last night he needed a wash anyway, Layana felt the same, last night’s antics making her blush, “I’ll get my things…” she whispered giving Declan a tender kiss on the cheek. she hurried over to her bag taking out her own clothes before taking out a fresh pair of clothing for him as well. He came over to her taking the clothing from her as she picked up her toiletries, unlike the men who were ok with just rinsing off used to having spent time like this, for Layana she had happily taken the toiletries that Bella had given her. Remembering the woman, she pouted looking up at Declan as they made their way to the river. “I heard from a woman in a village o

FIVE YEARS LATER…. “Aryan!” a woman's voice came, a child's laughter echoed in the halls of the palace. The boy who was not even five yet giggled as he hurried out through the open doors, past the guards who looked startled to see the young prince rushing through the halls. “Your majesty,” they said bowing to the young woman who was running after the prince. “The crown prince…” “Yes…” Layana said shaking her head, none of the guards could approach him without him zapping them with lightning. Like his father, he had inherited the bloodline of House Storm. “Aryan,” Layana said again her own eyes flashing as she stepped into the front courtyard, her pale pink dress billowing softly in the wind. The little boy froze from where he had been trying to escape, sensing his mother’s eyes on him. “I did not hear you calling me mother,” he said his large grey eyes looking innocent, an innocence Layana knew was not real, his dark brown hair fell in his eyes. “I am sure you didn’t,” Layana sai
His Caged Princess 87. A New Day
A month had passed since then, winter had arrived and life in Ehlesaar was returning to normal. Layana and Declan had chosen their council together consisting of 20 men and a few women. A mix of nobles, mages and even a bloodline user, Layla. The palace had been rebuilt and the dragons were a common spectacle flying around above the palace. Layana had visited Halian and Rina’s families personally apologising for their loss and promising to take care of their families and always be there for them. Halian’s wife had not held her accountable and told her, he had died doing his duty. It still hurt remembering all those they had lost, but with time it was becoming easier to handle. Layana had made changes in certain laws and they had been approved by the council. She knew with the power she and Declan held, they were the strongest around and no one would defy them. But she wanted to rule with a fair reign, although perhaps in the future she knew their neighbours may begin to feel unrest w
His Caged Princess 86. Goodbyes
“We wish for Her royal majesty Layana of Ehlesaar to be our Queen but with a condition,” Gabriel said with a small smile on his face, it was a rare sight and Layana almost stared in shock, yet the weight of his words kept her serious and focused. “What is the condition?” she asked, Declan frowned he didn’t really agree with her letting the people decide on whether she should be queen or not. Yet he knew how the people loved her and knew she would be chosen. “The condition is for our supreme commander to rule by your side as King,” Elian said smiling at his student. Declan raised an eyebrow despite feeling shocked at that. He kept it hidden, did they really want him to be king? Layana smiled, “That would be a given,” she said looking up at Declan, feeling proud, from being a man who was hated and looked down on, he was being chosen as king, not even settling for prince consort. “Then, to our new king and queen!” Gabriel said, everyone, stood and bowed to the couple “Long live her m
His Caged Princess 85. A New Era
Five days had passed and most bodies were accounted for, however, those who had fought for The Dark Lord had not been identified within the charred bodies of Orcs, Dagorath’s and other beasts of darkness. Therefore many families had been told their loved one was unaccounted for, although they sided The Dark Lord, it was partially by the influence of darkness more than their own will that only bought the evillest part of a human to their forefront. Funerals had taken place and three days of mourning had taken place for the kingdom to honour their fallen soldiers and knights. To remember those innocent victims of a war that had riddled the kingdom. Today was the day Layana would address the high-rank nobles and after this, if all the powerhouses of the kingdom approved of her rule, she would take up the role. The sun shone through the windows of Layana’s bedroom and her eyes fluttered open when the light hit her eyes. She smiled softly at the rays of coloured light that sent pretty pat
His Caged Princess 84. The Light
From far behind them, Kayden’s eyes widened in shock as he watched them fearing what may come upon them. Layana rushed to Declan, his eyes were closed a deep frown on his forehead. “Fight it!” she said cupping his face, her hands were shaking from fear, not even wanting to think about what could happen, the darkness grew, its putrid stench of evil and death filled the air, weighing down and cutting off the very air one needed to breathe. Layana staggered back as she heard the manic laugh of The Dark Lord. Layana stood up she needed to reach him! This couldn't be it; this was not the end- she refused to believe it! She fought against the blasts of power that were rolling off Declan as The Dark Lord tried to take over, she had seen something similar happen to Declan’s father in the vision. But he had allowed it, to sacrifice himself for his kingdom, but Declan would fight for the kingdom, for her and for their baby. She shielded her face as she pushed forward using a shield around he
His Caged Princess 83. The Darkness
The Dark Lord looked at them coldly “I have lived far longer than any of you, what do you think? That you can defeat me, you are simply exactly where I wanted.” He hissed. “Think what you want but you will die by my hand,” Layana said softly her eyes blazing as she readied to fight, Declan raised his hand “Layana… let me handle him until he’s within an inch of his life,” he said coldly, Layana frowned sensing the anger that was radiating off him, something had happened… “Declan…” “I can handle the scumbag,” Declan said his eyes crackling as he raised his hand drawing his sword that now sizzled with electricity. He rushed forward not even waiting for Layana as he struck out at The Dark Lord, “Come, let the anger take over, how did his death feel?” he hissed, Layana wondered who he meant as Declan rushed forth, running with ease despite the rubble of the destroyed palace littering the ground. “Don’t you dare even talk about him!” Declan shouted coldly, sending a bolt of lightning
His Caged Princess 82. The Fallen Hero
“Let’s do this Dragina,” Layana said softly stroking the scales of her dragon’s neck. She saw Myra raise her arms - the darkness spreading like smoke from her, bolts of pure darkness were shot at Layana who blasted them all aside as the sky illuminated with her dazzling power. Layla looked up at the sky seeing Layana facing off against The Dark Lord himself, where were the others who were needed for this plan? The plan was to isolate and trap him. She just hoped everything went smoothly as she used her own power killing orc after orc. Suddenly the darkness seemed to grow, the ground erupted beneath them and she tumbled back, their army looked ahead seeing the riders of The Dark Lord now coming to the forefront as the strong darkness that rolled off them only grew. Beasts of all shapes and sizes jumped out from the cracked earth attacking anything in their wake… Declan motioned for them to fall back, letting the mages and bloodline users now step to the forefront. Magic and power were
His Caged Princess 81. The Battleground
“When will my coronation take place,” Cordelia asked Myra who was standing on the highest balcony at the front of the palace seeming to be looking far off into the distance. Cordelia had felt her anger over the last two days, ever since Aurelia and the Fire Mage had escaped. It was a move they hadn't anticipated, but the fire mage turned out to be smarter than they had predicted. The Dark Lord now wished he had killed the man when he had the chance. “In time, they are coming.” Myra said quietly “How do you know that? you said I will be queen, I demand to sit on my throne,” Cordelia said. Myra turned her eyes flashing dangerously, Cordelia felt her blood run cold seeing the red glowing embers that now looked back at her from Myra’s beautiful face. “I know a lot, daughter of Ehlesaar… if you ever wish to see that throne, I would be very careful with how I speak,” she hissed the darkness emanating around her. Cordelia’s heart thumped, so this was the truth… The Dark Lord was within Myr
His Caged Princess 80. The Himaria Pass
They had set out early the following day, moving faster, Kaloran had called to the animals around and they had been able to retrieve some horses. Although Layana knew Declan had hoped to find Pedro so far it seemed that it was a futile wish, they were long past the point they had left him. However not once did Declan mention it. He now rode upon Drakayaan, a dragon that refused to let anyone else take control of him apart from Layana and Declan. Something that had made Aren pout like a child, Layla and Marilda rode behind her on Dragina. “Slow down…” Declan called motioning to Layana, they had been flying for a while, slightly ahead of the rest scouting out the area.“I sense it too,” Layla said, the smell of smoke, burning flesh and the putrid smell of something rotten. It took Layana a second longer to catch the smell that made her stomach churn. She looked at Declan who motioned her for to say up in the air, whilst he went lower his eyes scanning the ground spread below them. He f
