Derek felt something was not right when he walked back to his room with his mate, there was this unsettling feeling which bothered him.
Earlier Frederick had told them that Alan ordered him to kill both his parents. But then, Frederick had run away from Alan which means Alan wouldn't wait for Frederick to carry out his order, rather he will do it himself.
Frederick had told him to wait till tommorow before he could go visit his parents at the dungeon as all of them couldn't go at once.
But he wanted to go check for himself, he wouldn't let Alan hurt his parents, even though his mother hadn't been the mother he wanted. Nevertheless, she was still his mother.
“ my love, I want to visit the dungeon, I'll be back okay ” he said to his mate who stood inside the room staring back at him with her big round eyes.
“ I thought Frederick said you could go tommorow as he will keep Alan distracted ”
“ yes I know,
I ran as fast as my legs could carry me, when I looked behind me I saw Frederick following me behind. We got to Elia and Magnus’s room, I knocked hard on the door that I could feel the pains in my knuckles.“ ahh ” I winced in pain.“ you'll get yourself injured ” Frederick said to me.“ I'm fine ” I said at the same time the door opened and Magnus came out of the room, his face bright with a smile as usual.“ Aria what are you doing he...” Magnus said but then he pulled me closer to him not completing his words.“ what happened ” I asked when I saw him glaring at someone behind me, he was glaring at Frederick.“ him ” Magnus used his jaw pointing at Frederick and I saw Frederick rolling his eyes with his arms crossed.“ it's ok, he's with me, but that's not the...”“ does Derek knows that you're with him, where's Derek ? &rdqu
Claudia hadn't expected Derek to snap her neck just because he wanted to lure Alan out. She had come to the dungeon to tell Alan to stop what he was doing if he wanted her as his mate.But right before she could say anything to Alan. Derek had already snap her neck and let her body fall to the ground.She didn't know that one day Derek will be the one to kill her, she had always loved him. She had hoped that one day Derek will return her feelings back.But no, he had killed her instead. She looked up at him to see if he was looking at her but instead his red eyes were staring at Alan angrily.He truly didn't love her even a bit, her eyes moved to look at Alan. He was staring at her but he didn't move an inch from where he stood.I stare at Derek in disbelief, was that how angry
Frederick knew who had this particular scent, getting out the dungeon which was almost unrecognizable due to Alan's destruction earlier.He followed the scent which led him outside the castle, carcasses of giant, giantess and the humans bodies were littered everywhere.But then the scent disappeared, he was sure he had smell that scent in the dungeon or was his nose not working well anymore.Just as he turned around he saw Caleb standing behind him which startled him “ f*ck, you scared me buddy ” he said glaring at his best friend.“ I could kill you know, you need to be aware of your surroundings ” Caleb said.“ sorry, I got distracted by your scent. You came ? ” Frederick said.“ yeah, we're here to hel
“ FREDERICK BEHIND YOU ” Frederick heard Caleb telling him to look behind him. Just as he turned around to see who was behind him.He saw that it was Alan, but it was already too late to fight back or even dodge as Alan had moved so fast and pushed his hand into his chest.He felt Alan sqeezing his heart, he felt the life in him slipping away right in front of his eyes. He heard Caleb calling his name running towards him.But Alan raised his hand up in the air clenching his fist, a dark thick mist covered both he and Frederick. Caleb couldn't see them as the black mist covered his view.Frederick groaned in severe pain as Alan sqeeze his heart even more, he felt his body growing weaker each passing minutes.He dropped to his knees placing his hand on Alan's hand which held his heart, he knew that the moment Alan pulled out his hand from his chest he would be dead.“ I told you I'll kill you and you thought it wa
That night Alan's men went to hide thierselves as they saw that they were losing. Many of them had died, many of them were injured and were recuperating.Many of the giants and guards from Naal city were dead too and some were injured, but thankfully they hadn't lose too many people like their enemies.Derek and Magnus slumped on the ground which were filled with carcasses of giants, giantess and humans. They had been fighting non-stop without taking rest.Thier bodies were covered with blood and wounds, they breathed harshly as they rested. While fighting Liam and Angus had joined them too.Unlike them who were buried under the stones when Alan had destroyed the dungeon, Liam and Angus were thrown right into the middle of the battlefield.Immediately their enemies saw them, they attacked them instantly and Liam and Angus began fighting and killing them one by one.“ F*ck , they are so many of them it's as if they keep on m
“ break down the spell ” Derek said.“ what do mean by that, this is dark magic” Caleb said frowning.“ I know that ” Derek said.“ Derek I don't think that's a good idea ” Magnus reasoned.“ look I didn't come here to break down any magic wall, you should be grateful I and my people came here to hell you guys fight, if not for Frederick who called us for help, I wouldn't be here in the first place ” Caleb said angrily.“ Frederick was the one who called you guys ” Magnus asked, caused he had thought it was Aria who had called her people for help.“ yes and now he's dead all because of that monster Alan, I'm going to kill him myself ” Caleb said clenching his fist.“ I'm sorry for your loss ” Derek apologize for the first time in his life to someone else apart from his mate. He didn't mean to be harsh to their helpers, but then his fa
Where was Alan ?“ So? Where is he then ? ” Derek asked impatiently.“ I don't know, he was here before I left ” Ron answered, he too had no idea where Alan was. Just before Derek could say anything else, they saw Alan walked out of the bathroom shirtless, he walked towards the bed and lay back on it.But then, he sat up and looked around the room as if searching for something, his eyes lingered more at the door as if he could sense Derek and rest presence on the room.“ Can he see us ” Caleb whispered to Ron who stood in front of them cause Alan was looking directly towards their direction where they stood.“ No he can't....I'm not entirely sure ” Ron said.What do you mean you're not sure...... Is this part of your plan ” Derek said angrily.“ No.... Just let me focus okay ” Ron said already getting annoyed.Alan who still stared at the door finally tore his eyes away from the door laid back on the bed facing Claudia who laid still on the bed, he caressed her cheek softly “ just wa
One morning, Alan had decided to leave the castle and build his own empire with his own people. He can't continue to live under the shadows of his elder brother.He decided to go see the young giant before he left, he made his way to the house where he had left him, passing through the spell, he knocked on the door for Ron to open it with sleepy eyes. “ Good morning Sir Alan ” Ron greeted.“ How was your night, hope you slept well ” Alan asked.“ I had a pleasant night ”“ The guards didn't disturb, did they ? ”“ No, thanks to you ” Ron gave him a smile “ Why are you here this morning ”“ Uh that..... I came to bid you goodbye cause this is the last time we might see ” Alan said to see Ron's face fell. “ Huh.... you're leaving ”“ Yes ”“ To where ”“ Somewhere ”“ I thought this place was your home, does the king knows about it ” Ron asked.“ Ron ”“ Yes ”“ it doesn't matter if the king knows or not. I want you to be a good....”“ Can I come with you ” Ron suddenly said.“ No ”
Aria was happy that Frederick finally got to be with someone, his mate. Atleast good things were finally happening.Everything was going back to normal, Magnus and Elia had a beautiful baby girl now. The couples joy knew no bounds.She was equally happy for them most especially Elia, she finally got the life she deserves.A peaceful and happy life with the person she loved.Aria stared at Frederick again and this time he turned his head and stared back at her and she smiled at him.Frederick gave her a small smile before he turned his head away. He stared at Astrid who was busy annoying Angus.Angus would occasionally glared at her because he was still carrying baby Elizabeth who was now sucking her thumb.The baby stared around as if trying to be familiar with her surroundings. Soon the baby started crying again and Elia took the baby into her embrace. Everyone dismissed apart from Aria and Magnus so Elia could feed her baby.Everyone went their separate ways while Frederick decided
After Aria left, Astrid dragged Frederick into his room. He wondered how she knew that was his room as far as he knew, he had never seen her coming outside to northeast side of the castle.He was still speechless as he continued to stare at the young princess who had shifted into her human form.She dragged him by his wrist into the room and then closed the door when they got inside.“ Won't you say anything to me ” Astrid said when she turned around to face him.“ Uh.. I.. don't really know what to say right now your highness ” Frederick said and bowed his head a little showing respect.“ No, no you don't have to do that ” Astrid said giggling.“ Do what your highness ” “ I mean drop down the formalities between us... you can call me by my name, I'm your mate and you're mine so there's no need for that ” Frederick still find it hard to believe.Astrid was his mate ?Someone he was going to spend the rest of his life with forever till they die.He watched her as she giggled, he knew
Frederick was still trying to wrap his head with what was going on. He still find it hard to believe that Astrid was his mate all this while.But why had they not felt the connection between them since ?Was it because of the dark magic that resides in him before Alan had killed him ?That could be the the only reason.He looked at Astrid who was staring back at him with a big smile on her face, right now she didn't care if she was a princess or not.She didn't care about the servants passing by.The first time he had set his foot in Naal city, he had seen Astrid from afar and he had stopped to stare at her when she wasn't looking.He didn't know the reason why he had stopped that day but now he knew why.Because she was his mate.Though she was in her giant form that day and she was the beautiful princess everyone knew but now, seeing her in her human form now she looked even more prettier.Her brown big eyes twinkled and her brown long hair was pretty and reached her waist. He turn
As the days goes by Clarrisa the Queen was getting better, she was recovering from the loss of her husband, Ethan the King of Naal city.Since the death of her husband she hadn't stepped out of her room, the servants only came to serve her food and left as she prefered to be alone.Astrid the princess of Naal city had been the one accompanying her but today she seems distant which the Queen noticed.Astrid stood at the balcony attached outside the room, she leaned her body against the railings using one hand to surpport her chin while staring at the forest far away.Clarrisa noticed that she had been down for the past few days, sometimes when Astrid comes to see her, she would see deep frown on her face.Clarrisa decided to know what the problem was, she called her daughter who had been staring blankly at the forest.“ Astrid dear ” However, Astrid didn't hear her name being called and didn't move an inch from how she stood.Clarrisa quietly stood up from the chair, her thick braided
“ We could go one more round here in the bathtub ” he said and my eyes widened.What ???One more round ???No, no I could barely walk on my own. “ No, Derek I.... hmmm ” I moaned as he started moving his finger in and out my V slowly.Shit... this feels good.“ Do you like it ” he whispered into my ear.I couldn't even talk with the little torture he was giving me as I closed my eyes while biting my lips trying not make any sound.“ Ain't you going to answer me..... Moan for me, stop holding it back ” he said and used his thumb to free my lower lip from my teeth and he increased his pace with his fingers.“ Hmm ” I couldn't hold it back anymore as I moaned out. He roamed his hand all over my body as he kissed my nape and my neck, his hand moved to grab my tits.I felt him remove his fingers and he turned me around so I could face him.The next moment he locked my lips with his, he used his left hand to pulled me closer to his wet body while he used his other to caress my face.He
“ What are you.... ” before he could complete his words, I crushed my lips on his and kissed him.Our lips remained locked, while he continued to stare at me, his long lashes tickled mine as he blinked.Derek hadn't expected Aria to kiss him, he had just brought her to their room so she could sleep comfortably but it has turned to something else.He slowly slide his hand on my neckline, and then he closed his eyes and sucked on my lower lips gently. I closed my eyes and wrapped my hand around his neckline too sucking on his lower lips.He adjusted his hand on her neck as his mouth began to explore hers, he nipped on her lips continuously as her sweet scent coupled with her soft rosy lips were already driving him crazy.Thier kiss became wild and Derek couldn't hold himself back any longer. He dived his tongue into the hot carven of her mouth and his hand on her neckline moved down to her tiny waist. The kiss got intense as they began to suck on each other's tongue and nipped their l
Derek couldn't believe that Frederick was standing right in front of him. He froze at his spot, he couldn't talk or find the right word to say.Magnus who saw Derek's stiffened back wondered who was at the door so he decided to go check.Just as he came close to where Derek stood, he wanted to ask him what was wrong when his eyes were left open wide when he too saw Frederick.“ What the.... No way ” Magnus said.“ Why are you both staring at me like that ” Frederick finally spoke.“ Why wouldn't we, I mean how are you alive you're dead ” Magnus said still shocked.“ Did Aria bring you back ” Derek finally said something.“ Aria ? I don't know, I just woke up ” Frederick said. “ Didn't you see her ” Derek asked with furrowed brows.Didn't she just said she was going to the cold room.“ No ” Frederick answered.“ Oh, she is with Elia. Wait ? Was it Aria who brought him back ” Magnus said.‘ So she is still mad at me ’ thought Derek to himself.“ I think so cause after I told her about
Frederick eyes fluttered open, he blinked several times to adjust his eyes with the light. He looked around where he was with furrowed brows. He then slowly sat up on the bed he was and that was when he felt how cold the bed and the room was.He tried to stand up but was to weak, just then he felt a very sharp pain in his chest. He groaned holding his chest.It was as if he was pierced with thousands of arrows in his chest.What happened ?Where am I ?Why am I shirtless ?Was was going on through his head, he looked around the room and saw a young girl and a familiar face..... King Ethan.Why were they laying down on the bed with their eyes closed ?What was he doing here ? He gently got up from the bed and walked to the entrance door, he opened it and peeked his head out to see two giant guards standing on either side of the door.The guards weren't aware that Frederick was awake until he cleared his throat and they turn to look at him.“ Sir Frederick, you're awake ” the guard o
“ You can bring Frederick back to life ” Ron said to see Aria narrowed her eyes at him.“ What do mean I , how am I sure you're not the one who killed him ” I said giving him some distance.“ I didn't kill him ” Ron said. “ Whatever ”“ Do you want Frederick alive or not ” Ron said.“ I don't trust you ” I said.“ As expected of you ”“ What ”“ Nothing , I can help you bring him back ”“ With dark magic or what ? ” I said.“ No ”“ Then how ? ” I asked.I wanted to know how he intends to bring Frederick back, though I don't trust him but he had helped us to capture Alan.“ You will bring him back, I'll just tell you how you do it ” Ron said and I frowned.“ You mean I can bring him back ” I said confused.“ Yes, I said that before ” “ I don't think I can ” I said glancing at Frederick.“ Yes, you can ” Ron said and I stared at him as if wanting to know if he was telling me the truth.“ Can you stop staring at me like that, I told you can trust me. If I wanted to kill you I would ha
