Ruby prays in the corner as grandma takes care of grandpa's wounds. She prayed for her mother to arrive immediately so that they can be saved already. She prayed that grandpa could hold on for a little bit longer while Grandma Rose sewed his wound shut making him release groans of pain. Ruby trembled harder as the monstrous wolves tried to break down the door relentlessly while the old wood barely held on its hinges. She whimpered as the wolves howled loudly into the night air dedicated to get inside the room and do god-knows-what to them.

Ruby tried harder to keep her mind off from the danger being shielded only by a weak wooden door. She tried reciting the names of all her mother's knights in alphabetical order to keep her mind focused. Surely enumerating the names of brave and strong men will give her courage as well to be able to endure this crisis and not break down until they arrive to rescue her. She's like a princess right now like the ones from Grandm

    Ruby's bright emerald eyes turned dull as a fallen leaf. They lost the shine of her innocence as she stared at the despondent scene, her heart becoming cold and empty like the corpse of her grandpa. She went to her grandmother's side knowing that she as well is at death's doorstep. The blonde girl held her nimble shriveled up hand filled with blood as she can only lament their pitiable fate."It's all my fault... I'm too weak to protect you and I'm too cowardly to do anything. I failed you. I should have been the one to die instead of grandpa." she mumbled softly as she cried. Grandma Rose frowned at her words before cupping her cheeks."Hush now child. Do not regret our lives because we know one way or another we are going to die as all of us will. Do not say such foul things. Your life is precious because you still have time. You didn't fail us. You never did. You provided the brightest days in our lives with every visit that you made and it meant

    Prince Marcus Aurelius sat boredly in his throne waiting for the next noble lady to arrive and present herself. As far as he knows, there's a line of them stretching from the hall down to the reception area which is five levels down from where he is right now making him scowl sourly in his seat. There are certainly more pleasing things he should be doing instead of entertaining these brats but his parents and sister saw it fit to make him suffer under prolonged hours of speaking with these bitches. And right now another one arrived."It's a pleasure basking in your presence my prince." greeted a beautiful woman with strawberry blonde hair wearing a pristine white dress."I am Princess Clara Cygne of the Kingdom of Azure." the maiden introduced.The prince she addresses looked at her with disinterest before placing his chin over his hand as he scrutinized her."Hello, Clara.

She wiped away the dust and debris from the surface of the marble before placing down a basket filled with homemade dishes and sweets. She set out a simple picnic blanket before taking out mugs and pouring them with cocoa.

    Aurelius led his horse through the lush thickets of the woods, passing by beautiful natural sceneries that made him feel like he entered another world entirely. He rode through hills of vibrant fields of flowers, stopped by enchanting waterfalls where pastel skinned nymphs tried flirting with him, and skipped through shallow rivers where colorful fishes swam about peacefully.The forest sang with a peaceful tune all around him as he passed by the woods where the golden rays of sunlight pierced through the leaves. Rainbow colored shards protrude through the soil once in a while along with the odd-looking big mushrooms. Butterflies fluttered playfully in the air as if they were joyfully dancing and celebrating the exploits of life. This forest is truly marvelous and fantastic however Aurelius didn't come here to have a tour.The Prince of Light hasn't found any monsters so far.

    It didn't take long for the ill-proportioned beast to finish ravaging the horse since it has three very hungry mouths to feed and when it did, it finally noticed him.Even though he went here for a fight his survival instincts kicked it first so he bolted. He ran with all his might like he had when escaping the demons of the Chasm. Cuts were made into his skin and his expensive clothes were torn here and there due to the sharp tree branches but those were the least of his worries. He made his way around the thickets with an aimless path, unsure where every step was leading him but as long as he kept a distance from that thing anywhere is better.He was nearly out of breath but he heard thundering footsteps following after him so the only best option he has isclimbing up a tall tree.

    In the middle of the Forest Igraine, two souls fought side by side against a terrifying beast that aimed to crush them. Both wounded and exhausted, sweat dripped from their brows but they kept going knowing that there is no time to rest until the beast is put to rest.Ruby kept shooting at the monster but her bullets only bounced off of its hind while Aurelius did his best to decapitate the snake tail aiming to snap at his head. Numerous times he nearly melted to a puddle of gore when the snake tried spitting poison at him but luckily he is swift with his feet as well as his wit which saved him time and time again from dying.The maiden had instructed him to cut the other heads before they could finish the beast so that it would lose two-thirds of its Divinity and be vulnerable to their attacks but so far he could only land minor bruises and injuries to the thing since it's too wild and too strong to vanquish so easily.

    "I didn't expect that you would be this weak, Neherra. Where's that spunk you've been boasting off for centuries? It's no wonder that even my young daughter could kill you. It's her fate after all and your destiny is to be killed by her hands that's why you've been trying so hard to kill her. But you know what, witch queen?

    It was a dreadful night. The blood moon that bathed the world with a crimson light seemed like it was mimicking the carnage of the land down below. Even the light of the billions of stars in the sky couldn't dispel the malevolent aura that seemed to emanate from the corrupt moon that appears to be watching the world like a condescending eye. Fear and panic reverberated across the atmosphere as death and destruction devoured the light of hope. If an outsider would take a look at the world they would say that it was hell and not the world of mortals. The chaos was especially prevalent in the Splendor Palace where the rich and powerful were supposed to be safe and enjoying a party of their own. Now their careless merriment has turned into despair with no way of escape but a small force of brave fighters are doing their best to fight back against the forces of darkness that ascended from hell.

    "What the hell are you doing? You've been drawing there since we finished making love. Aren't you going to get some rest?" Althreya mumbled groggily as she sat up in his extravagant golden bed wrapped only in the exquisite fur and linens from unknown exotic lands. Her fine bare body dented the soft mattress of the bed while streaks of sunlight haloed her cascading locks. To the man who sat drawing over his varnished table, Althreya looked like a goddess of beauty regardless of her disheveled appearance."I am merely indulging my fancy. If you've missed me that much even though we've spent five days and nights fucking our hearts out, then I would say that you are already in love with me. Well, no one can blame you for that. None can resist my charms anyways." joked Cadmus, making Althreya roll her eyes in annoyance."You fuck harder than you fight." retorted Althreya as she gathered the clothing her gracious host had provided only

    "My father?!!" Ruby exclaimed in bewilderment. She can't believe the words this man just uttered. Surely he must be bluffing. It's impossible! How can he be her father? Her mother never mentioned anything about him regardless of how many times she begged for the truth. Althreya would always refuse and say that she has work to do that's why she gave up on the topic. Now this man, this stranger from nowhere, comes up to her and tells her he's her father. How the hell is she supposed to feel about it? Anyway, there's also the possibility of an ulterior motive behind his introduction. He might actually be evil or something, so he drew her away from her friends before kidnapping her or murdering her.

    Aurelius sat her on his lap before wrapping his arms around her waist while their lips caress each other with passion and sorrow. Ruby removed his coat and unbuttoned his shirt to expose his strong muscles where sweat dripped down his skin that glistened like ivory. The maiden allowed her hand to explore the tenderness of his beautifully built figure and appreciated the well-defined lines that traced the broadness of his chest and the lengths of his arms.Aurelius pulled down her strap to expose her ample bosom and began caressing her soft delicate mounds that perfectly fit his palms. He teased, squeezed, and twisted her buds to allow her core to lubricate faster as his tongue traced the line on her jaw up to her ears making Ruby moan with pleasure and arousal. The maiden retrieved his slumbering python from the comforts of his pants and roused it with the gentle kisses of her fingertips. Aurelius also inserted his fingers inside her panties to tease her c

    The chilling cold hugged her body in its comforting embrace as the water wiped away her tear into non-existence. Silence reigned and darkness engulfed her body as the water muted the world yet it did little to console her heart and wipe away the sorrow which lingers in her chest after finding out about Caspian's demise. Ruby didn't last long in the water as she finally decided to rise to the surface and cleanse her body. She sat herself on top of a boulder and took out a potion which she used to massage her hair with. She allowed it to settle on her locks before focusing on scrubbing the dirt and grime on her body as well as the blood of the demon who pretended to be her friend. She decided to redirect her mind into a different topic than Caspian's death. Sadness and sorrow will do a leader no good. A paragon abandons

    Caspian and Ezekiel stood there and remained silent waiting for her to speak. Ruby slumped on the chair never minding her posture and manners as the two joined her on the seats around the table. "You should really leash your cousin, Cassy. He's gone too ballsy speaking to our Ruby like that." Ezekiel spoke spitefully. "That fool is naturally like that. I'm sorry that he treated you that way, dear Ruby." Caspian apologized to the maiden who poured herself a glass of water before drinking tiredly from her golden cup. "It's okay. I'm numb to it. Let the dogs bark because they are mindless beasts. Caspian, I heard that you and your soldiers were ambushed on your way here. Are you well?" "Oh, yes. It was a tough battle and some were even able to drag me deep into the woods to separate me from my squad however no demon will amount to the might of a northern soldier.
