The next morning, Valerie woke up with a headache. Her body is stiff and there is an unsettling feeling inside her stomach. At once her mind caught up with everything that happened the previous night. Her eyes flew open and she sat up with a start. For a moment she thought that everything that happened last night is a dream. But the fluttering of the curtains that is trying to hide the broken door made her realise that someone indeed tried to kidnap her. All she remembered is jumping from the window, before everything turned blank.

"Thank God, Valerie. You are awake" she heard her mother's voice. Anesthesia rushed inside the room with a worried frown marring her features. She engulfed Valerie in a bone crushing hug.

Valerie relaxed in her mother's arms.

"What happened?" she asked.

Anesthesia pulled back and looked at her daughter with a sad smile.

    Two hours after Valerie woke up, she found herself sitting infront of the vanity while her maids working on her hair and makeup. Usually she would have told them not to bother as she doesn't like to wear makeup. But today she is too numb to open her mouth and tell them to leave her alone. She is wearing a black dress, the colour of the Raven's. She picked this colour for Raphael. She is missing him too much and the pain is unbearable. She is constantly touching the pendant around her neck. Her dress hugs her frame till her hips before flaring down and reach just above her knees. The dress is made of laces, and the front neck is a deep 'V' which is showing a hint of clevage. Her hair is tied into a high ponytail, which is twisted into waves in the ends. She is wearing light makeup, but her lipstick stole the show. It's cherry red and she is looking absolutely stunning. Her red heels complemented her outfit."Princess Valerie, His highness and her highness are requesting your presence

    King Arthur is closely observing Valerie. Raphael is standing behind her while a very annoyed Valerie is stabbing her breakfast with more force than necessary. He gave a nod to Raphael, who nodded back. Anesthesia is trying to look calm and composed, but Arthur can see how worried she is. Last night is a reminder that Irina can do anything and they cannot stop her. Arthur made sure to keep the last night's events a secret. He doesn't know how many people are sold to Irina. So he decided to keep this between them. Only a handful of guards know about this. As the incident took place in the middle of night, all the maids were sleeping and only a few night guards know about this incident. Arthur asked them to keep it a secret. If this issue comes out, he would know whom to suspect this time. Hector, who came to the Ernest palace the previous night is sitting on the table beside King Arthur and Liliana to his other side. As per the request of his future in law's, he decided to stay for a

    In the Raven Palace, Irina is pacing restlessly. She is yet to receive a message from the men who are supposed to Kidnap Valerie from the Earnest palace. "What happened? You look a little irritated" Cadmus noticed as soon as he entered the room from the bathroom.Irina glared at him."You think i look a little irritated? Can't you see how angry and frustrated i am? Can't you see how worried i am for Raphael? All you do is lie on that bed all day and drink to your hearts content at night. You do nothing. I am forced to do everything alone" she snapped at him.He gave her a look."Lie on that bed all day? You were once lying on that bed just like me for over a year. You know how boring it is. Moreover i am doing this for you. You asked me to pretend like i am sick to avoid Raphael's suspicion" he defended himself.Irina wanted to strangle him."You were always irresponsible. Now is no different. Lying on that bed is the best you could do. You never bother to ask me what happened" she m

    "Hey, give me back my phone" Valerie demanded.Her bodyguard Blake(Raphael) shook his head and slipped her phone inside his pocket."Forgive me princess. But King Arthur has instructed that you should not keep any contacts with the Raven clan" he replied.He saw Valerie calling Raphael's number. He saw how sad she is. She kept meddling with the pendant that he gave her as prince Raphael. He can see that she is anxious to speak with the prince. But Raphael lost his mobile in that pub which he is yet to recover. He is sure that his mobile is with queen Irina's spy, who was following after him all night. It's not advisable to allow Valerie to call Raphael's mobile. If Irina answered his mobile, Valerie might tell her about the attack from last night. Valerie still trust Irina blindly. Irina is so cunning and cruel.'If queen Irina tells Valerie to come out of the safety of this Ernest palace, Valerie would do it blindly. That would make things easier for Irina and take Valerie away from

    "I want to talk to Raphael" she confessed softly.Hector sighed heavily."I know you would ask me something like this. But i am sorry Princess. I heard that he went on a world tour for a couple of months. He left his phone behind. I tried calling him several times, but all my calls went to his voice mail. His security chief told me that he is not in the Raven Palace either. No one knows where he is now. The moment i find out anything about him, i will let you know" Hector said apologitically.Valerie's eyes became moist."Why? Why Prince Hector? I didn't do anything to hurt him. Then why is he avoiding me like this? He saved me last night, then why did he leave so abruptly?" she asked sadly.She is feeling as if her heart is being ripped out of her chest.Hector's eyes became soft. He knows that Raphael is in love with Valerie. He can also see that the Ernest princess likes the Raven prince. "Princess, can i ask you something?" he asked.Valerie nodded absently. She is thinking about

    "Raphael" Valerie whispered.Blake(Raphael) stilled.He let go of her immediately and moved back and away from her. He is amazed at her conviction about his identity. She doesn't have to see his face to know who he is. The doubts that have arisen when she failed to confess her feelings in front of Hector are destroyed by her desperation to see and talk to Raphael."Raphael, Raphael, it's the only name you speak and the Raven prince is the only person you think about. You couldn't say why though" he muttered with fake annoyance. He is trying to convince her that he is Blake and not Raphael. He knows that she will blow his cover sooner rather than latter. But today is too soon for that. His annoyance snapped her out of her daze.'What is happening to me? Why am I searching for Raphael in everyone? My Raphael would never speak to me in this tone ' she thought."If you touch me again, i will definitely kill you this time" she threatened him angrily.Her skin has goosebumps, just like whe

    In the Raven palace, Irina is not in a good mood. The men she hired to kidnap Valerie disappeared without a trace. She tried calling them, but all of their mobiles are switched off. She learned from another source that Valerie is safely nestled in the Earnest palace, and no kidnap attempt was made on her, which infuriated Irina."Where did these idiots gone? Valerie should have been kidnapped by now. But instead of doing that, they are avoiding me? Did Arthur found out about them? Did he kill them or bribed them? I don't know what is happening there. I cannot delay anymore. Valerie has to be gone out of the picture before Raphael could come back" she thought with a frown. Her gaze landed on Raphael's mobile, which is sitting on the center table in her room. She picked up her phone and dialed a number. It belongs to the man who works in the Ernest palace as a gardner. Irina gave him a lot of money to pass on information to her from the place of his work. That man picked up on the thir

    That evening, Raphael is watching Valerie. She is wearing black leather pants, a black sports bra and paired it with shoes. She is in the middle of an open grassy area. She is holding a sword and is swinging it lethally. She is facing her opponent with confidence and tack. She might not be stronger, but she is fast. Where she lack in strength, she is compensating with speed and skill. She is making sure not to allow her opponent to land even a single blow on her. She knows she cannot take it, and surely will lose if it happens. That's why she is being defensive most of the time and landing strikes when she saw an opening. The meek and innocent Valerie who was with him for one year is now replaced by this confident woman, who is not afraid to fight with a warrior who is more than double her size."What do you think?" King Arthur asked while he came to a halt beside Raphael.Raphael shook his head. He is impressed by how quickly she learned to use a sword. But it's not enough. Especiall

    After one year....Raphael wanted to hide everything Irina did, because she was once a queen of the Raven clan. Her black deeds will forever become a black mark on the Raven clan. The hard earned reputation of his ancestors would be ruined, which he doesn't want to happen. So he hid her death when it happened. As everything happened in the middle of the night and as the Raven palace is sitting at a fair distance away from the town, no one knew what happened or suspected anything. By morning, only ashes were left behind. The dead army and even irina who brought them to life are all gone. Cadmus lied to everyone that irina went on a spiritual journey to find peace. Everyone believed that lie as Irina made sure to keep her reputation spotless when she was alive. Only peace was left behind after she passed away. "Raphael? What are you doing here?" Valerie asked from behind him. He is standing in the palace court yard while looking in the exact place where his mother died. Valerie noticed

    Raphael and his men together surrounded the dead army from all four directions. They start to burn the dead army with their dragon fire. As Irina is momentarily disoriented, the dead army stands still like statues, while their bodies are burned down to ashes. When Irina realized what was happening, she gained back the control she has on the dead people again. "You dumb idiots, attack" she screeched loudly. At once the dead army started charging toward the Raven palace again. As their bodies already started burning, they are now walking fireballs charging towards the Palace gates. At once the palace gates shook with the force of the dead army. It creaked loudly, protesting from the force with which the dead army was pushing at it and trying to breach the palace walls."Guards, shift and stop them from entering the palace. The gate will not hold that much force for longer. Barricade the gates with sandbags. Quick" Raphael instructed his men while he resumed burning their decayed bodie

    "Your Highness, dead bodies are walking," he said in a rush. The guard is pale and looked scared. Raphael and Angoori ran outside and were shocked to see an army of dead and decaying people walking towards the Raven palace. Their bodies are muddy as if they just came from inside a grave. Bones can be seen in their half-decayed bodies. Most of them are just walking skeletons, and the rest are in the process of decaying. Irina is leading them in the front. She looked happy at herself. Raphael thought he was prepared to deal with anything Irina threw at them this time. But no amount of mental pep talk would have prepared him for this. 'How does anyone fight with already dead people?' he thought while taking in the walking dead steadily approaching the palace. The Raven guards look scared out of their minds. But the guards are trying to look brave and do their part by locking the tall wrought iron palace gates and positioning themselves to shield the entrance with weapons. That dead ar

Out of all her enemies, she never imagined that it would be her own son who would destroy everything. The years of planning, pretending and after a million cunning ideas, everything was burned down to ashes because of Raphael."No one, I mean not a single soul dared stand against me. But now, after twenty-five years of unhindered rein of only victories, my own flesh and blood is standing in my way" she screeched with anger and frustration.The dark forest shook with the intensity of her anger. "After everything I gave you, you decided to take up my enemy's side and betray me. Now, after I learned that you stole my dark powers, there is no going back for you from this betrayal. You have to join your dear Father in heaven. You never really saw my true nature, Raphael. I only ever pampered you and hid my true self from you. I onl

    Cadmus understood what Raphael meant by 'Our plan ' after half an hour. They are standing in the palace Courtyard and all the Raven guards are standing in front of them. Confusion is seen on their faces. It's almost midnight and a meeting with their king at this hour is not common. But Cadmus understood why Raphael is doing this now. Because they cannot afford to waste any time, especially when they don't know where Irina is and what she is planning. "You must be confused and thinking about why your new king wants to speak with you all at this hour. But I understood that this is the best time to speak about things that all of us want to hide from others" Raphael spoke.His words left everyone confused in the beginning, but then the men who are loyal to him understood where this was going. So they looked at each other and nodded their heads in understanding. Stealthily they changed their positions in such a way that they are now surrounding Irina's loyal men whom they are sure would g

    After her failed attempt to threaten her enemies, Irina left the Coronation party in a fit of murderous rage. "No, if they think that they can intimidate me, then they are dead wrong. Raphael might not know about me, but Arthur, how did you think that I would let you go so easily? We grew up together. You know how stubborn I am. If I set my eyes on something, then that should either belong to me, or it should be destroyed. Just like you. I wanted you, but you rejected me and married anesthesia. I thought of killing you, but that would be an easy punishment for you. I want you to suffer. And your suffering would only end on the day you die. Now, your daughter made a huge mistake by taking over my position as the Raven Queen. You made my son go against me. That is a sin deemed to be punished by death. Now she will die, and so will you. None of you know what I did for two years after I left the Ernest palace. I practiced dark magic. All these years I was trying to amplify my dark powers

    Irina has a malicious smile on her face. She is hiding how angry she is. She never thought that there would come a day when she might have to see her son laughing and chatting with the people she hates the most. What's worse is, he made her the worst enemy and made Arthur's daughter his Queen. "Hello Eugene" Irina greeted the Nester king. She intentionally skipped his title. This is the same way she used to address him when she used to stay in the Ernest clan. But after things turned bad between her and Arthur, she distanced herself from Eugene as well. Because she knows that he is loyal to Arthur.Eugene became stiff and so did the others. Raphael tightened his fists. Valerie's eyes flashed with anger. Anesthesia, Arthur, and Liliana have matching frowns of disgust. Hector and Cadmus look uncomfortable."Hello, Irina" he replied with a blank face. Irina turned her gaze towards Arthur. She wanted to disturb their happiness. "You look happy Arthur. I saw this kind of smile on you on

    The entire Agnes clan bowed their heads when Valerie approached them. They don't have a choice. Going against a gold dragon is like going against a mountain that is taller and stronger. It's useless to fight with a mountain when you clearly know that you cannot win that battle. A gold dragon's wrath can destroy an entire clan. Her blessing would help any clan flourish and grow. The land that she touches will be greener than any other land."I am not killing you merely because I don't want my mate's coronation to be remembered with a blood bath.
