After the unexpected incident with the dark man, Valerie's bath turned her into a restless mess. She wanted to leave the dark forest, especially now that she cannot see the dark man anywhere around her. But she doesn't want to leave Raphael alone. An hour passed by after her unpleasant run-in with the dark man. She looked at her hand with which she slapped him.

'What happened in that pond? Did I really like his touch? How can I betray Raphael like this? This is the worst thing I could do to him when he trusts me so much ' she thought as her guilt is eating her up.

'How to bring Raphael back? Fight Raphael, please fight that darkness. I need you now more than ever ' she thought sadly.

Unknown to her, the dark man is sitting on a branch of a tree under which she is currently sitting. He is watching her intently. He can see the guilt clearly written on her face. She dared to slap him. If it was anyone else, he would have killed them already. But he was not angry with her for some reason

But the dark man caught her hand in a vice-like grip, restricting her from running away."Let go of me" She struggled to break free until he opened his mouth."I am sorry" he whispered honestly.She is taken aback by his confession."If this is your new trick, then don't even try. You can go back to where ever you came from. I am not going to fall for your deception " she snapped angrily.He smiled sadly. Now he is understanding why that wise old man cautioned him about having a body. Because it would come with its own set of complications. "I deserve your anger. But you should understand something first" he is trying to explain. But she is so angry that she doesn't want to listen to him."I don't want to or need to understand anything. Now let me go" she pulled her hand from out of his hold and turned to leave. Bu

    The dark man is watching a particular section of the dark forest where the trees are too thick and too tall. There will be little to no light that touches on this particular place even on a bright sunny day. 'She is there' the dark man told Raphael. As the Darkman knows about this forest better than Raphael, the Darkness was given control so that they can find Valerie faster. But the forest is creating too many obstacles for him to reach the Ernest princess.'Let's go then. Let's bring her back ' Raphael told the dark man.Slowly the Darkman jumped from one branch to the other. These trees are under the control of the dark forest. So they can just trip him at any point like they did a hundred times by now. It was hard enough to find the location where the forest hid Valerie. And on top of that, he kept falling, and the forest is injuring him often to stop him. If that's not enough, his energy is being slowly drained by the forest. His body is becoming weak as time passes by. 'We ca

    "Why are you not healing? Are you feeling alright?" she asked with concern. Just when she asked the question, she saw his wound healing. His body pushed the wooden piece out of his body. And the blood-coated wood fell to a side. She sighedRaphael is taking labored breaths, as his body healed completely within seconds. But the forest has sucked energy out of him, making him weak."It's this forest. It's feeding on the negative energy I am carrying. As darkness is a part of me now, it's feeding on me" he revealed.She gasped with shock. Belatedly she understood that it was this forest that took her away. Slowly the winds started to slow down until it stopped entirely. The ground is not shaking so violently anymore. She doesn't even realize that she caused so much havoc around the forest. Her attention is fixed on Raphael."We have to find a way to leave this forest" she spoke with a worried frown.'You need to mate to bring him back ' She remembered those words again.'Does that man me

    Valerie is a little confused. She is experiencing something really strange that she never experienced before. She can see Everything around her more clearly than she used to. She can even see the small specs of dust flying in the air around her. Her nose is picking up the various scents of the plants, trees, and fruits around her. Most importantly, her nostrils are being assaulted by Raphael's masculine scent. It is unique and woodsy with a hint of cinnamon. His face, his voice, his scent, everything is overwhelming her senses more than it already does. She can hear every small sound that is made a mile away from her as well. Everything is overwhelming, but that is not the only overwhelming thing. It's Raphael. Her body is hot, even though the dark forest is freezing. She is sweating and something is building in her abdomen. She cannot move her eyes away from Raphael, even though she tried several times not to look at him like a hungry rabbit.

Only one hour is left for your supposed six hours. But still, there is no sign of our prince. Now you are talking about something which none of us know about. What is happening here, Angoori?" one of them asked with a hint of anger. Everyone is on edge. The fact that they are not doing anything to save their prince is making them feel on edge.

His aura is more dangerous and much more powerful than usual. Everyone around him can feel the power radiating from him. He folded his wings back into him. He looked at the people around him intently. Guards, maids, gardeners, and a few Royals are standing with their heads bowed. He can now read their emotions. Fear is an emotion that everyone feels right now. He never was among the people who liked to scare everyone around him. But now, he knows that he might have to kill many of them.

Then she noticed the familiar scent of Raphael, which is so tempting and comforting. She remembered what happened before she slept. Her cheeks turned red with shyness. Slowly she opened her eyes to search for the man to whom she belongs now. But when she noticed her very familiar surroundings, her eyes became wide with shock and confusion.

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.

    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

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.

    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

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.

    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.
