Vida’s Apartment, New York City

“Look Colter, I’m not up for any drugs, if you want to go, feel free to go” Vida said worriedly, her paranoia getting the better of her as her mind told her that Colter could also be just some drugged out junkie messing around with her feelings.

But the gorgeous man in her apartment clasped her hand in both his hands and smiled at her wryly, “Look, I am not in a position to ask you to trust me” but as he said those words, Vida felt the affection and the warmth spilling out from him, he was not lying. “Trust me.”

She sighed and pulled her hand away from him, shaking off the blankets that she used to cover her naked bodice, she stepped out of the bed, feeling Colter’s stare at her all the time and grabbed her clothes.

“Please, if by flying you mean taking drugs, I don’t want to take part in any of it” Vida said her back turned, putting on clothes while Colter chuckled from behind her. “So, there are drugs in this kingdom of yours as well?”

To the normal eye, they were like a bunch of goons waiting for their target to walk out of his home and then attack. This is what the vultures, in human skin, planned. Colter would not be able to expect their attacks yet they braced for a battle nonetheless. He was not called the ‘roaring inferno’ for no reason.Aquila motioned with his hand for one of his minions to circle the area as he felt Colter’s presence moving, there were no other spectators right now as it was barely sunrise. People were still sleeping soundly, one of the perfect moments to strike at an unexpecting foe.They heard a door creak open and slam and they saw him, their quarry at long last, Colter was stepping out of this dwelling and was preparing to take off.“Now!” Aquila and Dyron, who was watching them through his animus scre

She was clearly unhappy at what was going on, she felt sorrow, disdain and resentment welling up inside of her.“Colter left without saying when he will come back or how long he will be gone…” Vida muttered to herself, starting to look slightly crazed.It was Vida’s birthday, as she had sung to herself in her mind, she and Tessa had planned to take a day off and just celebrate her birthday. They were supposed to go to the mall, a cinema, food and also drinks at night. But plans had changed and Vida was simply too depressed to do anything ‘happy’.“Let’s just go to work” Vida texted Tessa, who immediately reply with a barrage of angry, sad and cursing emojis. “Already on my way there” Vida replied to Tessa’s string of emojis.Well, if that didn’t secure anything, nothing will, Vida thought wildly, knowing that this will a

The last thing he knew was that he was attacked after leaving Vida’s apartment. It was quite a battle but he was caught off guard. Hence why he was in this sticky situation right now.“It hurts” Colter thought as the fire continued to burn inside him, his brain was slowly losing itself and his heart was slowing down. “Vida…” Colter thought as his thoughts flickered in and out of existence, “I’m sorry… I think I fucked up”Then there was a snap, it was as if something inside of him changed. He found himself in darkness and there was voice that seemed to guide him on.“You are my son” the voice told him.“I am your son…?” Colter repeated in the darkness of his mind, “I am your son.”“Open your heart to me, my son” the voice continued and Colter accepted it like a child.Dark energies flowed into him, it w

Vergil, the royal guard who had been sent to the portal had returned yet. For what it was worth, the Kingdom of Howard looked like they were hovering over ruin.The elder prince, Gian Howard, found himself following the Deity Flora curiously, he decided to spy on the oracle because she could potentially reveal his betrayal to the king, no the whole kingdom. Not wanting his chance at the throne be squandered by some all-seeing witch, he watched her quietly.Flora took a pouch of ash from her clothes; it was what she usually used when she conjured visions. The crystals around her started to glow as she blasted a handful of ash into the floor.“Revelate!” she chanted and the room seemingly quivered for a split second, Gian was rattled for a few seconds but he tr

The King had ordered the gates to remain open as long as the Deity's final form, a white butterfly, was ready to depart the realm.The Palace Grounds were transformed into a funeral viewing. An orderly line can be seen from beyond the gates. In the middle of the courtyard, a dais was set up where a giant glass dome was standing tall, glistening under the bright sun.Eloisa had been one of the Ecanus who was patiently waiting for her turn to pay her respects.

As soon as he took a step, he stumbled into a bush and threw up the contents of his stomach."Gah!" Vergil wiped his mouth clean from his vomit. "Drat. How could Colter survive that thing? It's a product of torture."It took a while for Vergil to follow Colter on Earth and the magical rabbit was to blame. He had been camped in the forest for a couple of days since the King gave out the order of bringing Colter back. For days, there was no sign of the magical bunny. He thought the King was yanking on his chainmail when he said that Colter followed one and led him to the portal. But after patiently waiting, it did indeed appear. It led him to the portal and now he was on Earth.Vergil took a look around him. He seemed to h

His hand was on the hilt of his sword the moment he said these words, his eyes gave off an ominous glow that made Vida step back and recalibrate what she said.“I believe you said Colter.” Vergil said calmly, disciplining himself with calm breaths, he had fought off the instinct to draw his blade. “Who are you and what do you know about the prince?”“I think it would be better for me to ask you, who the hell you are first” Vida said in a shaky voice, brave but still quivering at the amount of bloodlust Vergil had emanated towards her, remembering the dreams Colter had, this could potentially be an enemy.Vergil relaxed his posture and stood straight and stared Vida in the eyes, “I am Vergil, Captain of the Royal Guard to King Malik Howard and Queen Regina Howard.”“Prove it.” Vida said stubbornly, still worried that he m

Now they had time alone.Vida’s nails buried themselves into Colter’s back, minding his now healing injuries, as Colter put his lips on her breast, he suckled on it like a hungry infant hungering for its mother’s milk.

Days had passed since the war against Havocc took place. The Kingdom of Howard has been slowly rebuilding itself from the wounds of the attack. What was left of the Royal Guards helped the citizens rebuild their homes and establishments until they had a sense of their lives back. "Colter," Gian said, nodding.He settled in to stand beside his brother and looked at what was once a thriving capital below them. Colter knew that the entire Kingdom would be back to its former glory in no time."What an experience," Gian said. "All my life, I have always thought Howard to be untouchable, a haven, that no harm would ever befall it. Seeing it being razed to the ground is something I will never forget.""I could say the same," Colter said."But we're getting through it. Just look at how fast the Ecanus

The bodies of the fallen Ecanus were being transported for burial, with the highest honors they could be given. Those who were still able to move helped out, finding people trapped in the debris of their homes, giving out food and just giving words of affection towards those who were severely saddened by the recent events.King Malik stood in front of them all, his wounds were still undressed, the blood all over him had dried up and gave him such a scary look, but he wanted to address all of the people before he took care of himself. He wanted to give him hope, and thus, casting the spell once more that would allow the people of his kingdom to hear him clearly:“It is with a heavy heart that I announce the
