It took the Raven Prince and his men half an hour to destroy the lab, which his mother built in ten years. It's like a base for Irina, from where she does most of her evil deeds from. All the scientists are killed and the lab is burned down to the ground. The Raven guards took the kids back to their homes. When each kid is being handed over to their parents, the gratitude that was shining brightly in their eyes made everyone's heart swell with pride. They know they did the right thing. They are now more grateful to Raphael than ever. Their loyalty now solely belongs to the Raven Prince, whom they fondly call as 'Boss '.

The Raven Prince, who started a war against his mother who is evil and did so many bad things has a very high standard in the hearts of his men. He is the prime example of how a leader should be, and Irina is the example of how a queen should not be. They are polar opposites. People hate the queen, but they love the Prince, who is their future king.

    "What about Her?" Raphael asked Cadmus.They are playing hide and seek out in the open. "She will not be happy. I am sure she might kill me even.

    "Valerie? What are you thinking?" Liliana asked when she noticed that her sister was not watching the video at all.Valerie turned to look at Liliana. "Sis, what are the chances of this Blake being the same as my bodyguard? Can they be the same?" she asked, her mind whirling with possibilities and so many coincidences which are too close to ignore.Liliana frowned."Your bodyguard is on leave. He might be anywhere now. Dad once mentioned that he came from the Raven clan. So mostly it might be possible that your bodyguard Blake might be the same person whom that man mentioned in that Video. I mean, he went on with some work at the same time when this incident happened. And coincidentally the name of the man behind that rescue is also Blake. So Ya, it is highly likely that they both are the same" she analyzed.Valerie remembered how she always felt like there was a lot of resemblance between Blake and Raphael. Their bodies look the same. Their eyes look the same. And she is as affected

    "Stop it, Liliana. I don't want to marry anyone" Valerie protested. Liliana is not in the mood to listen to her innocent younger sister."Oh? Now you don't want to marry anyone? Then what do you want to do? Do you want to forever harbor false hopes for the Raven Prince? Do you want to live in a dreamland where Prince Raphael comes as your bodyguard? Did you want to see and feel miserable when he finally marries someone else and leads a happy life? Is that what you want in your life?" she questioned.Valerie doesn't want to imagine Raphael with anyone else. It left a hollow feeling in her chest. She doesn't want to think about all of that. Her feelings and emotions are all over the place. Her chest is aching with an unknown pain. What Liliana asked is true. Raphael has to marry. She cannot demand him to marry her either. But at the same time she doesn't want to see him with anyone else. All these feelings are confusing. She tried to walk away unable to explain her feelings. But Lilia

    Blake(Raphael) returned to the Ernest's palace after he spoke with Cadmus. He is waiting to see how Irina would react. Previously he doesn't have anyone reliable or trustworthy whom he can use as his spy inside the Raven Palace. But now, he has four dozen men at his disposal whom Irina still trusts and whom he can use to keep an eye on Irina's actions. He doesn't have to worry about Cadmus either. His men would protect him if Irina decides to kill him.He is wearing his Blake mask and armor to conceal his identity. He is sure Valerie would be awake by now and he has to escort her to their training area. He reached her room and knocked twice and waited for her to open the door. But a minute passed and then another, but she didn't open the door. The area between his eyebrows creased.'She usually wakes up early. Why is she not opening the door?' he wondered. He knows everything about her morning routine to a 'T'. He knows what she would be doing at OP. He knocked again, this time lou

    Raphael is walking behind Valerie while trying to keep his eyes off her swaying, sexy butt. She is wearing extra-tight pants today, which is outlining her behind in a rather irresistible fashion. He knows that she is doing it on purpose. She is showing him attitude, which is hot as hell.When he notices that every man's gaze is lingering on her, his possessive instinct is demanding him to take her back into her room and lock her away from all of their eyes. She is only for him, and no one has a right to even look at her.A low growl erupted from his throat. A warning, loud and clear. That's all it took for everyone in the room to go stiff and keep their eyes away from her."If I kill someone today, it's all on you" he muttered with annoyance so that only she can hear him. Her careless shrug is the only reply he got from her. When the training started, she showed him how angry she is. Each swipe of her blade is sharp and her moments are fast and measured. To his amazement, she is alm

    In the Raven Palace, Irina woke up with a frown. As she slept on the couch, her body was laid down in an uncomfortable position, resulting in a very bad back ache. They will heal soon, which is not a problem. But it made her wake up in a bad mood.Her face looks puffy and her eyes are bloodshot. Her hair is all over the place on her head. She sat up and looked around her surroundings. She realized that she is not in her room."Damn it, looks like I drank a little more than I should have" she muttered to herself. Her breath is smelling bad from all the alcohol. She frowned and used Cadmus's bathroom to look at least a little presentable before walking out of the room. By the time she came out of the bathroom, she saw Cadmus sitting on one of the cushioned chairs beside the couch, waiting for her. He looked as if he has a good bath and is wearing the royal outfit meant for a king. He is supposed to be wearing a thin cotton gown meant for a patient."Cadmus? What the hell are you doing?

    Irina knows that she has done a mistake. She also understood that the issue from last night would have blown out of proportion if Cadmus did not step in and taken care of that situation. So now she is not angry that he has blown up their plan. He cannot stay stuck in bed forever. "Fine, what if I have judged a single situation wrong? You solved that problem well. You gave them false hope and promised to deliver their kids by sunrise. I will take care of them if they come back asking why their kids are not back yet" she promised as if she is doing him a favor. She started sipping her coffee and relaxed her shoulders. But little did she know that it is not over yet."No one will come and ask for their children. You don't have to worry about that. You have other things to worry about" he said while pulling out another video where Raphael's men were seen handing over the children to their parents. "Our Boss did this. He traced the location of the missing children. His name is 'Blake'. W

    "Who is this Blake?" she asked, ignoring his outburst. She is reasoning his behavior thinking that he is upset because she messed up.Cadmus hid his smirk. 'It's your son. Thank god he turned out to be like his dad. I am happy that he is not a heartless bit*h like you. He is empathetic and will always protect the people in need. He proved that he is the true Raven heir' he thought to himself with satisfaction. He sat back down on the cushioned chair lazily."How would I know? I just woke up from that bed. I know nothing about the outside world which you don't know about. It's your headache" he said casually. Irina glared at him. At that particular moment, he is behaving like the old Cadmus whom she is so familiar with. She is happy that his rebellion lasted only for half an hour. She will find out who this 'Blake ' is on her own. She picked up her mobile phone from the coffee table and immediately dialed the head scientist who works in the lab.

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

    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.

    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.

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.
