KING ROAN HIS POV

''It is time King Roan,'' Julias says.

King Roan looks at his best friend and takes a deep sigh. He wishes he could just stay here with Julias.

He hates this dreadful day that he must endure every year. He hates having to pick a woman even though they are not the one he is looking for.

All these deaths haunt him every time he closed his eyes. But he must keep looking for the sake of his people. It has been 3000 years and they are beginning to lose hope.

Roan has no reason to think this year will be any different. He did what he thought was best at the time. He did not know he would curse his people instead of protecting them.

He stands up from his throne and asks Julias, ''Is the room ready?''

Julias nods, ''Yes, my King, the special section is prepared, and Maya is waiting.''

''Okay," The King says, "let's get this over with then.''

He starts to swim to the surface and with a sweep of his hand his fishtail changes to muscular legs. He then puts his hands upwards and to the side. The sea splits open to make a place for him.

He walks up the shore to the hundreds of women waiting for him. He expects to be bored again like every year by lines of beautiful but submissive women. They are all the same.

When he comes closer his eyes immediately go to the right end of the line. There stands the most beautiful woman he has ever seen. A curvy body just how he likes it and hair that is shimmering red when the sun shines on it.

With green eyes full of fire, she is studying him. She doesn't look scared or shy like the others. He immediately feels the need to look closer at this lovely creature.

''Maybe this won't be such a boring year after all," he thinks to himself.

When she looks away from the other women, he lets a wave put him in front of the beautiful woman. She slowly looks up at him like she is examining him. He looks into her fiery green eyes and feels a little tickle in his stomach.

It has been a long time since someone looked at him without fear. He must keep up his reputation as a brute though.

So, he just says to her, ''Turn around.''

Like she is his possession to look at. The woman looks at him with disgust and doesn't move. He must admit he likes her feisty attitude, but he cannot let anyone know that.

He doesn't want to risk some mortal spy reporting to Hella that he has gone soft. He must show the people that he is in control and to be feared.

So, he uses his water magic to take her breath away.

He says, '' You will not disobey me, if I say you must turn around you turn around without hesitation. If I, ask you a question then you will address me as your King. Am I clear?"

He stops his magic and the woman pants, ''Yes my King.''

Her eyes don't seem submissive at all though, he can already see her plotting for revenge. She then reluctantly turns in a circle so he can look at her body. He likes what he sees.

Her long legs end in a perky round butt. He would have loved to slap her butt at that moment. He looks further up to her small waist and perky round tits. She looks like he could just pick her up and have her against a wall without a problem.

He feels that his dick starts to get a bit too interested so he quickly distracts himself from her body. He asks her what her name is instead. ''My name is Noelle Pupillo,'' she says. Which means he has no idea what bloodline she is from.

He likes the sound of her name though, so he can't help but grunt an approving, ''Mmm.''

To his surprise, her body reacts to his voice. He quickly hides his amused smile; he cannot deny that he likes the fact that she finds him attractive.

He tells her to hold out her hand. The moment he takes her small hand in his, a light starts to shine. He can feel the magic flowing through her veins and he can feel there is a lot of it.

After all these years he has finally found the lost heir of the witches. Salvation for him and his people.

''At last, I have found you,'' he says excitedly.

He does his best to try and hide his excitement. He wants to take her home as soon as possible. So, he takes her in his arms and carries her to the sea.

Roan stands still and looks at me from head to toe.''Considering what Julias told me about your magic I think you should be able to shapeshift into a water creature. Maybe we can try a mermaid, just think about what you want to look like. Picture everything from the breathing gills to the tail.

  • Sacrificed To Her King   Trouble

    NOELLE'S POV,The rest of the week Roan and I practice water magic every day from dusk till dawn. On the first day, he explained to me that magic can't stay inside. It is like a well that fills up, it needs to be released otherwise the well runs over. When that happens you have no control over your magic, and you don't know what the outburst will do to people close by.So, every day we start with doing some magic meditation. Simple peaceful spells just to make sure my magic does not get bottled up. The magic we do in the meditation is quite fun. I can make small rainclouds, make shapes out of the water like butterflies for example and make fun currents in the water for little sea turtles and sea horses.But that's the fun part the rest of the day we practice more advanced stuff like protection and battle magic. So far, I have been able to make a small shield. Roan can make protective air bubbles as big as cities. Today however we are going to try making a vortex.

At first, we wanted to make a burning woodpile for every single body but then we decided it would be more meaningful to send everyone off on small plateaus at the lake that leads to the sea in Dandion. Everyone worked together the last couple of hours to make floating plateaus for all the bodies.I leave the castle to go to the lake with Gabriel. Everywhere I go people look at me with big eyes and they either bow or clap for me. I quickly gained the image of the heroine that saved the world in the hours that have passed. Tales of how I destroyed the army with magic spread and they even sound unbelievable to me while I know that I did it.

To be rid of him for good I must heal him and his evil.”We are all quiet when she walks to him and sits down at his head.

    NOELLE POV,I feel nothing when I explode the dark humans and demons in the tunnel with purple light. I walk outside the tunnel and notice the inner wall being breached. Purple light radiates off my whole body and I levitate myself above the castle. I must look like a bright purple star and people drop their weapons to look at me. I open up my mind to all creatures of the Under Realm and give them visions that they are being chased by their worst fear. The trick works effectively on the dark humans, and they all start running out of the inner part of the city screaming.My voice echoes through the city when I command my people and the dragons to hide inside buildings. I hold up my arms and call out to all the water in the city to obey me. Water starts to rise up from sewers and the small rivers. It all flows back to me and forms a big wall of water up into the sky. I put my hands forward and let a tsunami carry out the demons, stone giants, and fire creatures with full for

Everyone has a determined look in their eyes and seems to calmly be waiting for the doors to breach. I decide to take the small moment of peace to go look for Thorn. I find him looking much better and luckily Faith tells me she will be able to repair his wing, but he just needs rest.“I don’t need rest; I need to fight with you mistress!” Thorn says in my mind with a stubborn voice. I walk to him and give him a kiss on his snout, “You have protected me fiercely I couldn’t be prouder. Now I need you to take it easy so we can maybe live to fight another day.”Thorn follows me with grumpy eyes when I walk away but he obeys my command. I walk towards Luna who is talking with Zeus.

    NOELLE’S POV,As soon as we fly over the wall it feels like I wound up in a storm. Fire and weapons fly around me. I see light and explosions everywhere and it is immediately complete chaos. I can feel the impact of every blow that lands on Thorns armor. I look around to find Hades but all I can see are demons, dark humans, and creatures of Hell. Hades must have put up some illusion so he and the 4 horsemen can stay out of sight and let the rest of the army do most of the fighting.I bite my lip in frustration because there goes my plan B to take out the most powerful play-ers to end the fight. I let Thorn burn demons and dark humans in the field with dragon fire, but I notice it gets heavier for him by the minute. I don’t know how much damage the armor can hold. Angels are dropping light bombs and fighting flying creatures in the air. I see many of the Under Realm army being blown up but every hole we make seems to be filled up with new soldiers just as

I stare at him and then I realize what is wrong, Donna is standing next to him, and she is also smiling at me. Shivers go through my body, and I want to scream to Ga-briel that something is wrong, but I can’t speak. The amulet around my neck starts to get warm and levitates me up in the air. It feels like something is trying to pull my insides out of me. I start screaming from pain and I can see purple light flowing out of me into Hades. I keep screaming until the pain stops and the last of the light flows out of me. I fall back into the ground hard and my body shakes from the impact.For some reason no one from Dandion seems to know what is going on because all around me is darkness. The only thing I can see is Hades and Donna smiling at me. Hades makes a tiny flame of purple fire in his hands and starts laughing.&ldquo

    NOELLE’S POV,Everyone around me is looking pale and serious as the army comes closer and closer. The grounds seem to shake from all the marching soldiers and the war drums echo in my ears. They stop marching about 50 meters from the wall. The war drums become louder and they all start to shout battle screams in a language I don’t understand. Luna nods at a soldier on the wall and he walks towards a massive horn stationed on the wall. The horn blows a strong and vibrant call through the whole city. I can see everyone take their positions and with de-termined faces, they seem to say that they are ready for whatever comes at them.Then the war drums become silent and the front row of dark humans and soldiers starts run-ning to the wall. I can now see Donna standing a few rows behind Hades. As soon as the sol-diers walk into the magical shield barrier they explode into light.

He is running to-wards me but as soon as he sees me, he stops. We just stare at each other for a moment and then he runs towards me and swoops me in his arms. I can’t even begin to describe how good it feels to have his arms around me and smell his scent. He sits down on the floor holding me and I can hear his heart beating really fast. I take his face in my hands and put my fore-head against his, tears of joy travel down my cheeks. I look into his beautiful blue eyes and sigh with happiness. He softly strokes my cheek brushing the tears away and puts his lips on mine. I lean into his embrace and enjoy the sensation of his lips on mine again. I wish this moment would last forever.I look into his eyes again and I hear him say in my head, “I have missed you so muc
