“I heard you gave Cassandra a good beating,” Lady Ursula pointed out, her wrinkly eyes directed at Solene who sat on a couch in the living room like an obedient student would. The former was on the threshold, holding her cane whilst standing one foot forward. It had been two days after the incident yet it was still fresh in Solene’s mind, poking her ego but just like last time, it didn’t make her feel guilty.
“I have no choice,” Solene stated, “I needed to explain my side too. She had a point and I truly feel sorry for it, but that doesn’t mean she had to condemn me all the way.”
“Good stand, Mistress,” Lady Ursula nodded. She moved from the threshold to the sole window of the room in awkward steps and continued, “It seems your recent argument with her leads us to our next lesson this morning.”
“And what is that, Lady Ursula?” Solen
“Milady, you should get some rest, it’s been four days straight that you haven’t had enough sleep. You aren’t even eating that much. I’m worried for you.”Anklet, feeling thoroughly concerned, watched as Solene attempted to cast a spell for the seven-hundred tenth time. Notes scribbled in haste lay haphazardly on the mattress around her. On the bedside table, two glass pitchers were emptied out hinting she was drinking water, but the half-eaten to even fully contained bowls and plates of food on the tray told a different story. She also looked tired and disheveled with her dress two days old.Solene groaned as another failure hit her. The Spell of Creation came out weak. The pot of sunflower seeds in front of her never grew or even show one bit of reaction.This spell would have been easy for her like its predecessors she had successfully cast. There was just a catch thou

They could sense the anger bubbling just beneath their wife’s skin as well as the immense power her father had locked up. Provoking her further—even unintentionally—would prove to be fatal to them so they both reached the same conclusion.“Rather than explaining, let us show you, Solene,” Henri stated whilst moving closer to her.Solene clenched her hands and stepped back, preferring no skin contact with any of them for the time being, but before she knew it, she felt someone’s arms wrapping around her.It was the other Henri, or Hein...or damn it, just h
Trigger warning on this chapter. Please skip if you are NOT into such things.***“Ah....ahhh!” Solene’s erotic voice had been the only sound inside the room for several minutes already.Henri, true to his word, started exploring her body: untying her bathrobe, touching her everywhere, leaving a trail of kisses on every curve of her body, and marking her skin using the low-dose electricity on his fingertips.To Solene, it felt like he was renewing his love for her. He had been a great lover before the revelation, but he was even better now with the secret out—or maybe it was just her thoughts running wild.But she couldn’t help herself. After seeing two Henris and seeing them mold into one body, her mind just couldn’t stop.Where his fingertips roamed, it left a zing inside Solene—a sens
The first thing that Solene saw when she woke up was her dear husband’s face smiling down at her. Due to her training, it had been weeks since they slept together. She missed that element of their marriage and of course, this too. Nothing was better in the morning than waking up with Henri’s smile welcoming her. She wished to give him a morning kiss but he actually beat her to it.“Good morning, beautiful,” he greeted. His hand reached her face, caressed it, and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.“Henri...” Her lips broke into a contented smile then.“How are you feeling?” He moved closer and started kissing her neck, placing small hickeys and creating tingly sensations all over her skin.Solene released a delighted hum. She angled her head to the side and allowed him more access.“Surprisingly, I feel fine,” she answ
It had been close to a millennium since Hein last entered the Demon Realm or Straghris as what most demons call it in local dialect. The late king of the demons banned him from entering all simply because Hein rejected his proposal to unify the two realms. Now that the ancient king was dead, he was granted entry by his successor, Crown Prince Andrei, who agreed with his ideals.Thunder, lightning and nimbus clouds heralded Hein’s presence in the demon sky. He hovered above the castle like a dragon ready to lay waste on the land. The last time he visited, the foul stench of decaying matter combined with acid permeated all over the kingdom and despite the Ruler of Death himself who had been accustomed to such ghastly odor, still, this sickened him. But now, under the rule of a new king, it changed. The air was lighter and the overall aura had improved, at least in his point of view.Aware that King Andrei was expecting him,
My Scythe-Wielding QueenPrologue: The Queen in GehennaA stench unlike anything Solene encountered wafted through her nose the moment she came to consciousness. It was so strong, so revolting; she gagged and spat out saliva onto the ground.Quickly, she raised her head and searched for the source of the terrible smell. There was none in front of her, none on her left or right too, but behind her...it was another story. A wall of dirty white spiky scales towered above her. Easily, her mind registered it as a monster. She gasped and desperately crawled away; fearing for her safety; fearing for her life.How did she arrive in this place and next to a beast? That was the question she didn’t have an answer to, and unfortunately, she didn’t also have the time to figure it out as scrambling away was her top priority.
Chapter 1 - The Queen FightsDespite the harrowing picture in front of her, Solene moved forward to the inner valley, to a path she believed was safe enough to trek on. She didn’t have a choice. She couldn’t stay in her spot too long for it had the same depressing element as the others.Again, the portal that admitted her had disappeared. Solene couldn’t backtrack her steps now even if she wanted to.Heat continued to scorch her skin the entire time she ambled the precarious path. Now a soul, Solene expected this would have no effect on her, but she thought wrong. Like her heart wildly thumping against her ribcage, like the sweat collecting on her forehead and temple, and like the hot breath licking her lungs, the burn on her skin was real.It wouldn’t be right if it wasn’t, she thought.This was Gehenna. The land of the dead inside
Chapter 2 - The Queen SummonsThis was unfair.This was unacceptable.In the face of her opponent, the story about David and Goliath taunted Solene and she couldn’t help but laugh.Damn it. This was cruel.This was more than that ancient story.The monster in front of her was more than Goliath. Indeed, fucking more than that.All five tusk-like legs as thick as a drum and as long as a bus told her that. It stood at a height that was staggering. She had to strain her neck so that she could see its face and when she did, she almost gagged.The monster’s head was deformed. Ugly. And very much dangerous.Supported with a single thorax that housed six human-like arms, its serrated teeth in rows and rows snapped at her. Slithering fork-like tongue tested the air and picked u
Chapter 53 – EpilogueLike her first wedding, Solene strode into the aisle with numerous people watching. However, on this occasion, they were all souls. The majority of them were grounded, sitting on the pews, but there were others too levitating in the air. They were all dressed in white, beige, gray, and red uniforms, signifying their designations in Sattus. However, Solene saw them not as souls without a shell, but real people with real lives, living in this realm she had come to love.As she inched closer and closer to the altar, Solene stared ahead in wonder. During their three-day stay in the Fair Silver Estate, Henri mentioned something about a surprise. This surprise was the newly built garden in Castle Vatlavus, created only for her, or as he stated—technically a renovated garden since the first one was destroyed during Caym’s attack.Immediately, Solene saw this as the perfect place to hold her second wed
Chapter 52 – The Queen’s Support Indeed, the crack in Gehenna’s barrier was large, so large that it allowed many monsters and armies of demons out. Solene expected this from Henri, though. He was a powerful man, after all. There was no denying he could destroy this section of Sattus if he really wanted to, angry or not. Partly, she felt guilty that this happened, but what else was new? She had always been the reason for the misfortunes of many people who became collateral damage or the unsuspected victim. Case in point, Cassandra, Mrs. Ingrid, Tessa, Lady Ursula, the people at the coffee shop and at the supermarket, and AC, her innocent little brother. But to feel depressive about it wasn’t the solution now. She already rose and conquered this heavy burden in her heart, and she was so ready to end this once and for all. As she neared her destination, she spotted one soul near it, trying to fix the crack with his powers. When he moved
Chapter 51 – The King of SattusWhen Henri returned to Sattus, it only took seconds for him to know where Caym was—inside the castle, in Solene's room, where she hadn't even seen yet. He was trying to conceal his presence, but to no avail. It was pathetic. It was laughable. Nothing could escape Henri's notice, especially when inside the castle.But Kelios said he was in Tartarus, supervising his army. It totally contradicted the facts, so this meant Caym was using his power of manipulation. He was certainly manipulating someone into posing as him, or he had someone transform into his likeness, or he transformed this volunteer into his clone.Whichever was the case, Henri knew this was all a trap—a trap he was more than happy to play. He instructed Kelios to pose as him too and with Jacob's help, mid-teleporting into Tartarus, Kelios changed into Henri's face and build. Even the King's great scythe was cloned all jus
Chapter 50 – The Queen’s SurpriseA series of lightning crack above the castle spires and the formation of a storm cell in the sky heralded the return of the King of Sattus. Henri materialized on top of the tallest tower with his boot hitting the pointed roof.With brows twisted, he surveyed his castle below. It was still untouched, good, but half of its surroundings were already in bad shape. There were no villages or souls on it, but the trees and the landscaped garden he created for Solene to welcome her stay in Sattus was all in ruins. There were rubbles everywhere from the pillars he erected in the garden, and most of the bushes and flowering plants were on fire. This angered him so."Your Majesty." Kelios appeared behind him and stated.Henri remained his gaze on the garden, hands clenched, and said, "Kelios, speak.""We have driven back Caym's army in Nirvana, Krusk, Bettina and Argelu, Your Majesty.
Chapter 49 – The Queen’s Choice"You leave my brother's body, now!" Solene shouted just as a neon blue circle appeared underneath her. It quickly expanded and reached the fountain where AC stood.Amon jumped up, and as a result, levitated the boy’s body before the light could touch him. “I think I’ll stay,” he flashed his fangs at her; his fangs that glinted with the blue glow. “I’m rather enjoying this vessel, woman. You, however, should be worried. At this moment, your husband is under Caym’s mercy, bloody and groveling for his life.”This briefly shook Solene. She trusted Henri’s capabilities as king. He was a powerful man. Caym could never rival him, but then again...what if...what if this demon was telling the truth? What if Henri was indeed on the brink of death and she wasn’t there to save him?Should she go to him then? But AC... the boy needed h
Chapter 48 – The Queen’s Demon'No...no... This can't happen!'Solene's thoughts proclaimed as cold dread washed over her. This was the demon that killed her. This was the demon that had been causing her fear and suffering since she was a child. This was the mastermind of her father's killing, and now, he has possessed her adoptive brother.Her sweet, innocent brother.Memories of that day when he killed her flooded inside her mind. It brought her stiff for a moment. Heaven knows how she just wanted to curl up into a ball in the corner of her room and protect herself from the traumatic experience, but no... No! She wasn't a prey anymore. She changed even better than before. She refused for him to win again, and most importantly, she refused to let her brother get harmed.Withdrawing from her mother's embrace, Solene flashed a fake smile and acted as if nothing was happening. She didn't want her mother
Chapter 47 – The Queen’s Warning BellsThe first thing Solene noticed when she regained consciousness was someone's breathing. The calm rise and fall of this person's chest was so comfortable she didn't want to interrupt it, but she had to. She was already awake and her body begged to move.Shifting her head up, she was greeted with this person's smile then."Henri..." she muttered and smiled back. She found herself sitting on his lap and cradled securely by his arms. They were still inside the maze's plaza, roofed with bright stars and shined by the light of the moon."Happy birthday, love. How are you feeling?" he asked and would have wanted to touch her cheek if not for Solene's sudden movement.She jerked back and shouted, "Oh, god, did I just mess up my birthday? The blessing?!"Henri found this comical, but kept his laugh inside. He shook his head in haste then and answered, "No, not at all, lov
Chapter 46 – The Queen CelebratedAs what Lady Ursula said, the Rantzen Family celebrates birthdays differently. When Solene entered the garden maze’s center plaza, she understood what the old woman meant. Not only was it held inside a maze, it was set up in a way that all the guests would circle the theta-shaped fountain. A circular symbol was drawn around it, which Solene hadn’t noticed the last time she visited this area of the estate. She couldn’t help but arch a brow. She wasn’t told how the party would flow. She was only informed by Henri to ‘prepare’ and nothing more. And by ‘prepare’ he meant to choose a dress out of the three he bought for her.Black and red. These colors were always what she favored, so when she spotted one that had these shades spread neatly on her mattress, she chose it. Patricia, her personal maid, helped her don it. As always, the gown had a slit design, re
Chapter 45 – Earning the Queen’s BlessingSolene’s clit engorged further as Hein continued sucking it. Then he parted her folds even more, licked it upward until he arrived at his final destination. Without preamble, he entered her with his tongue. He stretched it further inside, pulled it back and stretched it again, all the while Solene mewled with heavy breaths.“Hein... Hein!” she cried out as she climaxed minutes later.Her high didn’t stop there as suddenly, she felt both cocks inside her: Henri in her swollen pussy while Hein inside her ass.“Our insatiable queen,” Hein grunted.“Hein...” Solene breathed out.“Let’s give her something to shout, shall we?” Henri offered while flashing a grin.“Henri...” Solene pressed her forehead against his cheek.“Yes, my thoughts exactly,” Hein answered.
