❤️❤️❤️ Emperor Ariadne Will (Part 6)❤️❤️❤️
"Mother, they are threatening us, I am going to deal with them," Morgan said once the last king had shut the door behind him.
"Silence Morgan and let me think. Instead of you being bothered about you not inheriting your father's gift you are here spouting nonsense. Don't you understand what they said?" Empress Rose told her son.
"Then let's not bury the late Emperor," Warlord Marcus suggested and earned a hot slap from his sister, who faced him angrily.
"Will you shut up that stupid mouth of yours. When they were busy running their mouths why didn't you bring out your sword and slain one accidentally Marcus. My husband will be buried and there are no two ways about it. He shall be buried in two days time, sharpen your sword with that of y
'Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life, but define yourself. Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.'❤️❤️❤️ Emperor Ariadne Will (Part 7)❤️❤️❤️Everyone's eyes were at the entrance of the palace door, waiting to see who it was.He walked out, stopping his whistling and gave a lopsided smile when he saw he had their attention."Did I interrupt?"Empress Rose stared at the familiar face which had grown from the young boy he was to this tall magnificent man standing in front of them. His biceps were huge, his chest was broad and he was as dark as the night, his clothes were black. The only color on him were his eyes."Storm," Empress Rose finally said with clenched teeth."Rose," he said with the same energy. "Let's not start any trouble now, after my father's burial, we can." he added dismissivel
'And there is nothing more dangerous in this world, in any world, than someone calm, clear and angry. If I still need someone to calm my anger down,then I surely need a scapegoat who enrages me.'❤️❤️❤️ Emperor Ariadne Will (Part 8)❤️❤️❤️It really pained Rumi to see Storm stopping at the mention of Juno's name.Storm turned around and stared at the girl in front of her, he regarded her slowly."You are not Juno," he said in anger. Juno hair wasn't black, it was blue and it's very rare, so rare to see it."I am not Juno, I am her sister. Remember the night you wanted to leave Ashland and I came to meet you that night before you left? The girl who had given you something precious to her for you to keep it in remembrance of me, do you remember?"Recognition flashes before his eyes. "Rumi," he said in surprise and when Rumi tried to walk closer to him again and wanted to hug him, "Don't, I
'Learn this from me. Holding anger is a poison. It eats you from inside. We think that hating is a weapon that attacks the person who harmed us. But hatred is a curved blade. And the harm we do, we do to ourselves. The best fighter is never angry.'❤️❤️❤️ A Man Called Storm (Part 1) ❤️❤️❤️Both the Empress and her two sons were up to their feet, staring at the bloody tooths scattered on the floor.Nobody said a word, the only sound coming from the room was the groaning pains from the three Kings."Like I said before, there shall be no king again, your title as 'King' has been taken away from you. I will become the only Emperor in Ashland and you and your Kingdoms are now Ashland. When you get home, pass that down to your people. Altamon, Gala and Puli no longer exist, what exists now is only one Kingdom, one empire and that is Ashland and you may still stay in your Palace," Storm said to them. "A
'We all have a little bit of tears written in our life ... and to erase them we need a little bit of help, a little bit of love, a little bit of magic. Even a small hope helps only that drowning person who has the courage to reach it. If wings were used to fly then a peacock would have flown the highest, flight happens with ambition.'❤️❤️❤️ A Man Called Storm (Part 2) ❤️❤️❤️"Now that I am reasoning it in your way, it might be true.""There is no 'might' Gwen, that's what happened.""So do you have a suspect in your mind?""Yes, but it's too early to start pointing fingers, let me keep calm first," Storm said. "Come on, let's leave the room." he added, leaving the room with Gwen. Gwen quickly fills others with what happened.Stopping a servant, Storm told him to get rooms ready for them. They will be staying in the palace for the meantime."Stay back brothers, I want to visit someone,"
'The one who walks on the path of his heart, he can change the world.'❤️❤️❤️ A Man Called Storm (Part 3) ❤️❤️❤️"You are not happy she's dead, are you?" Rumi asked, watching the sad emotions on Storm's face. He was not a good pretender so she could see past that smile. "You are wishing she's still alive, you are wishing she was the one.... standing right here instead of me, right?" she asked again."Don't force words into my mouth Rumi, I don't even like her and I am sad, do you want to know why?" Storm asked and didn't wait for Rumi to respond before he answered his own question. "I am sad because she died but not in my hands. I am sad because I wanted to be the one that would end her, rip out her heart and then watch her die slowly. But she died before I could fulfill all my promises, all my promises I made to myself to do to her once I am back. She should be happy that I didn't meet her alive." he added, his tone of his voic
'No one has seen tomorrow. Who knows whether tomorrow will come or not and that's why I'll turn my every tomorrow into today'❤️❤️❤️ A Man Called Storm (Part 4) ❤️❤️❤️Rumi stared at her before returning her gaze back to Storm."You don't know anything Gwen, but you are not far from the truth," Rumi said and looked at Gwen once again. "I don't want to hurt you but do not let me change my mind."Gwen snorted at that but didn't say a word.Storm left the grave, neared the horse and gestured with his hand towards Gwen to come. Reaching him, Gwen climbed the horse as Rumi approached them."Will you come again?" Rumi asked."Of course I will. You've grown into a beautiful woman Rumi," Storm said, causing Rumi to blush a little. "I will see you again." he added and climbed the horse, then returned his gaze back to Rumi. "Don't forget to bath Warlord Emera as promised, I will be coming to check
'When the lines of traditions become blurred then you should not hesitate from pulling new lines'❤️❤️❤️ A Man Called Storm (Part 5) ❤️❤️❤️Emperor Dean woke up, gasping for air. His head was pounding heavily as if they were hitting bricks on his head. He groaned and placed his hands on his head and started whispering to himself, saying some strange words. And the building headache was gone.He tried to remember what had woken him but no matter the spells he tried, he couldn't remember. Something had woken him and not remembering it sent shivers down his spine.'Why couldn't he remember?' he thought hard and finally gave up when nothing came up. He stood up from his bed and went to his room window, he saw it was dark which means he slept the afternoon away.Leaving his window, he went to his bathroom to take a quick bath and afterwards went to see Adaoh.He has something he wants to discuss with her.
'In every person there are two types of qualities, the one that takes you up and the one that takes you down, and the quality that wins between these two, the person lives that kind of life.'❤️❤️❤️ A Man Called Storm (Part 6) ❤️❤️❤️"Even me?" Emperor Dean asked her, running his other free hand on her loosen hair.Kira laughed slowly. "I wasn't referring to you Dean. I can't fight you to test my strength, hell, you are my teacher. I am this strong because of you so you are not among those who I was referring to.""Better, I would hate myself for fighting you," Dean said in a serious tone."I know, me too, good night Dean.""Oh before I forget. I want you to visit Adaoh tomorrow morning. There is something she needs to work on you, okay?""Okay Dean, goodnight.""Good night my fire."Soon enough, they were fast asleep entangled in each other's arm.➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖Ashland King
❤️ Revelations (Part 3) ❤️ "This confirms everything then. We've to play our own game.""If Edgardo is Fred, don't you think he would be listening to our conversation right now?" Kira said to them. "He will be watching us.""No, he will be concentrating on the conversation he is having with Dean and not on us." Storm reply. "Just leave Fred to me.""Will you kill him then once he revealed himself?" Phoenix asked."Nope, I won't. Don't worry, mother. It's me and Fred. Dean is not the issue here." Storm answered. "Kando, make sure when you are fighting look out for Uncle Emera here and Morgan and yourself too, I hope your brother can take care of himself also. Just be careful. Promise me you will do that for me?""I promise you Storm. I will watch them like my life depends on it." Kando promised. "If that will be all, I should start going.""Knowing Fred, he's going to tell Dean about your visit here, so come up with a tangible lie." Storm told him."Noted." Kando nodded. "Another thing
❤️ Revelations (Part 2) ❤️ A cough startled mother and son and they turned towards the direction the cough was coming from. Adaoh was seen coming out from Storm's room and Empress Rose didn't hide her shock. "Are you staying here? Won't you go with them?" "I will go, I know where they are heading to so I will meet them." "Why didn't you follow them?" "My two daughters are dead and buried here and you are still asking me a senseless question." Adaoh said with her hands in tight balls. Empress Rose opened her mouth to retort something back to Adaobi but Morgan spoke first. "I'm sorry for what my mother said. She didn't mean any of that. She is just surprised to see you here." Morgan quickly chips before his mother will say something and escalate the matter. "I'm sorry." Taking a deep breath. It's okay. Like I said I know where they are going so I will meet them. I just need to spend some time with my dead daughters," Adaoh said and stared pointedly at Empress Rose. "You would ha
❤️ Revelations (Part 1) ❤️Without wasting time, Storm ran up to meet him.With his free hand, he dodged Storm's attack and flew away from the spot holding onto Kira, both of them dangling mid-air. "Kill all of them, spare no one!" he ordered the five Edgardo's he had created. And he disappeared with Kira.The five Edgardo's fought against Kando, Cando, Emera and Morgan.Taking a deep breath he didn't chase after them, instead he bent them and picked up one of the swords of the undead armies, they were not dead he could sense it. Fred had put them in a deep sleep, but they are not his problems right now. The metal liquid once again entered the sword and without wasting time, he killed the five Edgardo's by cutting and burning their bodies afterwards he destroyed the tracing paper painting they came out from.Dragging a chair from the table, he turned the chair around so that it was facing the palace gate. He crossed his legs, closed his eyes."Won't you go after him? He took Juno with
❤️ The Final Battle And Victory ❤️Empress Rose screamed first when she saw the undead armies walking towards them. She saw her granddaughter and wanted to run and grab her away from the armies behind her but Morgan stopped her and shook his head."Can't you see what's happening mother? She is the one leading them." Morgan told his mother. "I think Storm is right, Fred is not who we think he is." he added a second later, letting go of his mother when he was sure she wouldn't run to meet his niece.The roars of the dragons above them made Empress Rose scream again and she fainted. Morgan who was beside her caught her before her body would reach the ground. Carefully he laid her down to the ground.Emera ran towards the room he had been staying in the Palace to fetch the sword. The sword given to him by Storm wasn't with him."So what do you plan to do? Kill all of us?" Storm asked. He was staring at each of the paintings besides Fred.Fred chuckled. "For you, yes. For the rest of them,
❤️ Unveiling The Truth (Part 2) ❤️The silence that followed was deafening that one could hear the sound the crickets were making far away."Impossible!" Empress Rose yelled out standing up, almost pushing the content on the table. "How dare you accuse my son of that? My son can never and will never be who you are referring to." she added in anger, directing it towards Storm."Fred is Edgardo." Storm repeated, not backing away from Empress Rose's angry glare. "I had a doubt at first on the night those assassins attacked me when I first came here that night and you killed one of them, the one I had let go. I could sense you close, your scent, but when I checked in your room you were there which made me think probably someone wanted to deceive me, so I give it to you, you are very good at hiding who you truly are." he added with a smirk. "But then again, what fully gave you away was when I and Edgardo fought back then in the cave and I noticed the mistake you made, just a single mistake
❤️ Unveiling The Truth ❤️Kira was confused. What other war Storm was talking about? The war they just finished had made her lose her two sisters."I don't understand you Storm, care to explain more?" Kira voiced out her thoughts. "What war are you talking about?" She asked.Storm turned to face her. Kira could see his eyes were red and puffing from crying. "The toughest war is coming Kira believe it or not, I can sense the change of the atmosphere. It's not good at all." he told her. "You said you want to fight, well then, sharpen your sword and get ready my love. I will be needing all the help I can." He added."I still don't get you Storm, the war is over, we fought and won so there is no need to start another war." Kira stated."I never said I was the one who will initiate the war Juno, but you will get to understand soon." Storm stated and without explaining any further more, he left her presence and headed for his room.Kira still could not understand what Storm meant but she wi
❤️ War And Death (Part 5) ❤️"I am so happy for you Gwen," Kira said to her with happy tears as she watched Gwen trying to hush her baby and was succeeding. It made her imagine she was Gwen and that was Storm's child with her. "I know you can do it, Sis." She added.Gwen smiled in return."She looks like you." Phoenix noted as she leaned forward to stare at the child in Gwen's arms. "She will be so beautiful when she grows up.""Thank you Auntie." Gwen uttered kissing her daughter on her forehead. "You can carry her if you wish." she added and gave her child to Phoenix who took her from her arms with care. Gwen still couldn't believe she has now become a mother. Two days ago she didn't think she would birth her daughter. If she was told back in the Garden of Edenis that she would meet Kando and have his child she would have laughed at that person face. Seeing Phoenix smiling down at her child glads her heart. She felt weak."I feel so weak Juno." she whispered at Kira."You will be fi
❤️ War And Death (Part 4) ❤️The Borderline of Altamon:The fight was frieced as Kando and Cando fought their way to meet Emera. Making sure they injure as little as they can, they almost got to where Emera was when unfortunately for Kando, he got blocked by Morgan."You know I can use this opportunity to kill you and tell Storm and Gwen that you died on the battlefield," Morgan said to Kando, killing one of the men that was from Kando's side in one swift move, "Actually that's a good idea." he added a second later."I don't have time for this nonsense. If you think you can defeat me then you don't know what you've signed up for." Kando told him. "Have you forgotten what I did to you when you tried this your stupidness or should I do that again? I bet you your mother is not here to help you get up and there is no wall behind you which will stop you from flying away from here forever." he reminded Morgan. "Focus on these ones you are managing to win and stay out of my path." he added a
❤️ War And Death (Part 3) ❤️"Pregnant?" Cando asked in shock and Kando nodded his head. "Who is responsible? I mean when did she leave here? When did I kidnap her? Was she pregnant when I brought her here? Who is responsible?" Cando rushed at his questions. When had he forcefully taken the girl his brother loved from Ashland?"I'm responsible for her pregnancy." Kando admitted."What if she had put the pregnancy on you? What if Morgan is the father." Cando told him. Maybe she did that to keep him by her side."No, it's not possible. The pregnancy isn't for Morgan. It's my child." Kando said. Morgan seeds wouldn't have formed a child within two days, it's highly impossible. Besides, Gwen would have told him if she slept with Morgan like she mistakenly did with Storm. "It's my child Cando." He affirmed"How do you even know that when, I don't know, her stomach is still flat?""That's where you are wrong, Gwen will give birth to my child soon. I just hope and pray it should be when the
