Elena was bought back to the reality by the ringing of her phone again. She took it out frustrated as she thought to herself “Who is it this time, I don’t want to deal with any other problems today”.
But when she looked at the callers name a beautiful smile bloomed on her face.
“Hey, you remember me now ha?” Elena asked faking an angry tone.
“Missed me darling?” Liam replied in a playful tone.
Elena rolled her eyes, but the warmth in her voice betrayed her amusement. “I don’t recall giving you permission to call me ‘darling,’ Liam.”
Liam chuckled on the other end. “Oh? I figured after four days of being apart, you might’ve started missing me.”
Elena sighed, leaning back against the railing. “You overestimate yourself.”
“Really? Then why do I hear the smile in your voice?” Liam teased

The next day afternoon, lost in her own thoughts Elena was sitting alone on a bench in the palace garden, sipping her orange juice.She broke out of her thoughts when she heard a familiar voice speaking to her from behind “So you are here, I have been searching for you everywhere since I came here in the morning”When she turned around, she was completely surprised looking at the young man standing there with a charming smile on his face as he looked at her.“Theodore?” Elena stood-up still surprised as she spoke “What are you doing here?”“What are you just going to stand there and stare at me or are you going to give me a welcome hug?” Theodore asked in a teasing tone.Elena blinked a few times, still processing the sight in front of her. Theodore. Here. In the Kingdom of Asterin.She hesitated for a second before stepping forward and wrapping her arms around him in a brief warm hug. “I

Just imagining some other women in Liam’s arms shattered her heart into millions of pieces, “I am never going to come face-to-face with him once I leave this place, so I will be fine” “So you can’t see him with any other person” At this words Elena just turned her head in another direction not wanting to speak. Theodore let out a deep sigh as he placed a hand on her shoulders and squeezed it lightly. “Elle listen to me the war that is to come in the future is for the whole dragon world to face not you alone, and when this is going to happen is uncertain, you can’t waste your whole life the fear of that moment, you have to live your life” “But my death in that war is certain Theo… I cant leave more broken hearts behind” Elena said as a teardrop fell from her eye. “It’s not Elle… it’s not. Aren’t we looking for a way out? Don’t speak like that” Theodore spoke a bit frustrated. “You are speaking of the cure which we have been search

Liam’s jaw tensed at the word friend. He let go of Theodore’s hand and took a step closer to Elena, his presence suddenly more imposing. “I see.”Elena sighed, sensing the rising tension and spoke for the first time since Liam entered “Liam, come sit with us.”But Liam didn’t move right away. His gaze flickered to Theodore, who had comfortably sat back beside Elena, before he finally took a seat across from them instead of next to her.“So,” Liam said, his tone deceptively calm, “what exactly brings you here, Theodore?”Theodore leaned back, completely at ease. “Well, my kingdom received an invitation to the upcoming ceremony. And since I was free, I thought I’d come early to explore Asterin.” He glanced at Elena with a smile. “And I’ve been lucky to have meet her and Alisha, they have been such a good company.”Liam’s grip on his knee tightened slightly. “Is that so?”Elena, realizing where this was going, quickly cut in. “Theo

Then as they stared at each other, out of nowhere something else clicked in Liam mind as his eyes darkened as he asked in a sour tone “What about your so called fiancé? You have not kissed him before?”Elena stiffened, her breath catching at Liam’s words. The air between them grew heavier, charged with an unspoken tension that sent a shiver down her spine.“My… fiancé?” she echoed, her voice barely above a whisper, remembering the small lie she had said I the beginning which had completely slipped her mind in these past few days.Liam’s jaw clenched as he took a step closer, his piercing gaze never leaving hers. “You’re engaged, aren’t you?” His tone was sharp, almost accusing. “And yet, you’ve never kissed him?”Elena swallowed hard, suddenly feeling trapped between his presence and the cold railing behind her. “It’s… complicated.”

After dinner Liam went back to his room and sat down on the resting sofa next to his bed.“Come out” Liam spoke in a lazy voice.As soon as the words left a man clad in a silver-black robe, with his face completely covered in a hood walked out from an inconspicuous corner of the room.He walked to where Liam was sitting and took of his hood before bowing respectfully “Boss”.“What have you found out Peter?” Liam asked his toon still lazy, but if observed properly one can see the underlying seriousness.The man straightened from his bow, his sharp, calculating green eyes meeting Liam’s“Boss as you had asked Bella and myself conducted our search based on the info Gabriel shared with us, we did not find any digital footprint on this name, no SM accounts, no one mentioned it in any conversations and those we found with that name are either dead or very old.

Meanwhile in Eldoria…Salis finally managed to reach his friend’s private laboratory.After getting out of the portal he had to travelled for more than 24 hours on foot without getting caught as this laboratory where his friend worked was a secured facility which was not open to outsiders. His friend had to pull in some favours to sneak him in discreetly.As Salis and his friend Felix reached the secured chamber, Felix keyed in the access code to his lab and the heavy metal door hissed open. Inside, a variety of advanced equipment flickered with glowing lights, waiting to be used.Once they were inside Felix said “You owe me big time for this” adjusting his glasses he continued “I had to pull more strings than I’d like to, keep this quiet.”“Don’t worry, as promised I will give you the new pill I developed for hair growth” Salis muttered distractedly, setting his bag down and pulled out t

Time flew by fast. It was the night before the ceremony, Elena laid down on the couch in her room closing her eyes.To anyone who sees her it looked like she was resting but the truth was far from that. She was speaking to her familiar, Sapphire through their mind link.As the restraints of the seal had started to weaken, she could use some of her powers now. Unless and until she does not overexert herself there were no problem."What did you find?" Elena asked through their mental link, her voice calm but firm.Sapphire’s voice echoed in her mind, tinged with slight irritation. “First of all, remind me to never take Kieran on a stealth mission again. That guy moves like a damn boulder rolling downhill.”Elena sighed “Sapphire”.“Fine, fine. We scouted the location near the Dark Forest where the calls were traced and searching for so long we finally found a cave in a hidden corner of another forest area ne

“Knock knock…”The light knocks on her room door brought back Elena out of her thoughts.She went to check herself in the mirror, making sure her make-up was not spoilt then eased out the wrinkles on her knee length dress and smoothened her messed up hair.Once she was sure that she looked perfect she went to open the door.As the door opened she was mesmerized as she looked at Liam who stood before her, his broad shoulders and perfectly tailored tuxedo making him look effortlessly regal. The deep purple fabric shimmered slightly under the hallway’s soft lighting, enhancing the intensity of his violet eyes. His usual unruly hair had been styled slightly, though a few rebellious strands still fell over his forehead, adding to his natural charm.Elena felt her breath hitch for a moment before she quickly composed herself. She had seen Liam countless times, but tonight—tonight was different.Liam’s gaze swept over her, his expression unreadable

Liam met his gaze, unflinching “Try me.”For a moment, the air between them was thick with tension, two forces at a standstill but before Daniel could act, Liam took a step back and said, “You want to play smart? Fine. Then do your part and trust me to do mine.”Without waiting for another word, Liam turned and strode off, his movements quick and determined.Theo cursed under his breath “Damn it, he’s actually going.”Daniel exhaled sharply, running a hand through his hair “I see why Elle likes him now, both are equally stubborn, really a match made in heaven” he muttered to himself as turned to the others and said “Let him go, we have work to do.”Kira glanced at him “You sure about that?”“No,” Daniel muttered, his jaw tight “But we don’t have time to fight among ourselves.”Theo sighed, shaking his head. “Let’s ju

Tressa stood face-to-face and said “Lets see if he can still stay hiding seeing you in pain.”Elena furred her eyebrows as she asked “What do—” but before she could complete her sentence Tressa caught hold of Elena’s hair and pushed her to the ground forcefully.“Stop—” Looking at this Alisha instantly stepped forward to stop Tressa but two members of Gantric knights stepped in and caught hold of her from both sides and placed the power sealing bangle on her right hand.Alisha’s eyes went wide looking at the bangle on her hand as she screamed “You bit*h… you…”Tressa turned to her for a second with a smirk “What are you screaming so loudly for this is the same accessory you made me ware when I had to fight this insect here” Saying this Tressa turned to Elena “Now you enjoy the feal of that bangle” Tressa said as she continued with wenting her ange

As they moved through the corridors, nearing the location of the secret chamber, they heard familiar voice calling out to them—“I know you’re here somewhere and can listen to me Alisha... come out now, or your precious sister dies here even before the poison in her body kills her today.”Alisha’s heart clenched as they all stopped in their tracks, pressing against the stone walls. Carefully, she peeked over the stone railing that overlooked the main hall below.There, standing at the centre of the hall, was Tressa, her cold gaze sweeping the area. And in her grasp—Alina.“And yes you coming here alone is not going to free your sister, bring you friends that Bit*h Lea and Liam as well” Tressa spoke up again as an evil smile creped-up on her face.Elena sucked in a quiet breath beside Alisha as she looked at Alina barely clung to consciousness, her body limp as Tressa held her upright. A sharp blade pressed against her neck and a

On Daniel and Alisha’s side…The journey to where Daniel had last left Master Yi and the others was not so smooth for the group. Due to the battle Daniel had before he met Alisha and the others the enemies were alerted and a small group of them were still searching for them in the corridors.They moved in silence, each of them on high alert. The further they went, the heavier the air felt, as if some unseen force was warning them that something was terribly wrong.Alisha gripped her weapon tightly, her steps quickening. The uneasy feeling clawed at her chest.Daniel was ahead of the group, leading them through the winding corridors with sharp precision. His golden eyes remained fixed ahead, unreadable, but there was a stiffness in his posture—one that only someone paying close attention would notice.Elena felt it too. She glanced at Alisha, but neither of them spoke.Then they turned the last corner and reached the lab bu

Liam and Theo soon reached the secret chamber, inside the air was thick with dust, the scent of old stone and damp earth clinging to every breath Liam and Theo took. The faint torchlight cast long shadows on the walls, making the abandoned space feel even more desolate.Liam walked up to the far end of the chamber where her had found the hidden door to the passage way.He climbed the stairs until he reached the dead-end and then crouched down running his fingers along the rough stone surface, searching for the mechanism to open the hidden passage’s entrance.Theo stood behind him, arms crossed tightly over his chest “You know, this place has ‘bad idea’ written all over it. Just putting that out there.”Liam didn’t look back. “Noted.”With a soft click, the wall shifted slightly as Liam pressed against a loose brick. A narrow gap appeared, revealing the entrance to the underground passage. A gust of co

Alisha processed the information quickly “Then we should regroup with them before we make any further plans. If they succeed in making an antidote, we’ll need it.”Theo, still trying to avoid Daniel’s wrath, clapped his hands together “Great! A rescue mission, sounds fun.”Daniel shot him a look, making Theo shrink back slightly.Elena ignored the tension for the time being “That’s a good idea but before deciding on that, did you guys find anything in the place Theo mentioned about earlier?”Liam turned to her as he calmly explained “We went to the place Theo mentioned and indeed found a hidden chamber there but it was empty.But based on the dusty footsteps on the floor and the space in the chamber its clear that at least a hundred plus people were staying there.Probably that is where Tressa was hiding her people before the attack.”“So it’s of no use?&rdq

As soon as Liam stepped inside the hidden chamber without thinking much Elena rushed forward throwing herself into Liam’s arms. Her fingers clutched the back of his purple cloak as she felt his heartbeat against hers. Relief crashed over her like a tidal wave, and for a brief moment, nothing else mattered.Liam hesitated for only a second before wrapping his arms around her, holding her tightly. His body was tense, but she could feel his heartbeat settle as he exhaled, resting his chin briefly atop her head."You’re okay," she whispered, as if saying it would make it more real."I'm okay," he murmured back, voice low "You're safe, too."Once she relaxed into his arms, she felt a heavy gaze on herself. Something cold coiled in her stomach, a deep-rooted fear that had nothing to do with the enemies outside.She slowly lifted her head to look over Liam’s shoulders— and her blood ran cold as she locked eyes w

On Daniel’s side…He moved swiftly through the corridors, his steps precise as he led the guards away. He could hear the clanking of armour behind him, their pace quickening as they followed the sound of his retreat.“Good. Keep following me” He thought to himself with a victory smile on his face.As he turned another sharp corner he came face to face with another pair of Gantric Knights. The two guards barely had time to react before Daniel struck.His sword slashed through the air, knocking the weapon from the first guard’s hand before driving the hilt into the man’s stomach. The soldier gasped, doubling over.The second guard lunged with a spear.Daniel twisted out of the way, his footwork smooth as he sidestepped the attack. In one swift motion, he caught the shaft of the spear, yanked the guard forward, and elbowed him in the face. The man stumbled, blood dripping from his nose.Then he gather

As they moved through the corridors Master Yi started coughing hardly and as he removed his hand covering his mouth, it was covered in blood.“Am I poisoned as well?” Master Yi muttered to himself.“Did you have dinner at the palace last night?” Daniel asked to which Master Yi nodded “Then you are poisoned as I over heard downstairs that person poisoned the food that was to be served for dinner.”“If that’s true how am I still fine?” Lily asked.“How would I know probably you did not eat the poisoned food” Daniel said.Ignoring the two of them Master Yi spoke “If I am really poisoned, I need to get to my lab as soon as possible before the poison in my body acts up more.”Lily glanced at Master Yi, concern flickering in her gaze, Master Yi was right—if the poison spread further, he might not last long enough to create the antidote. Then she turned to Alina who
