He was ruthless and a killer, she knew, everyone knew. Everyone had heard takes of hus tyranny and feared for her life. Yet she couldn't bring herself to run away from him when he had requested her father send her to him. She was a princess and this was the price she would pay for her people. But when she arrives and things are a lot more different than she'd ever known how does she find a way to tell everyone that all they knew was a lie?

Like a fog the veil was lifted and my memories fell like snow, blanketing all the crevices of my mind, Elena's scent, her voice and her tears, it seemed like she was here with me, but she wasn't, she was on her own in the battlefield, making the hardest and most terrible choice she could ever make, Elena was leaving me. The thoughts took a few seconds to settle in my head but when it did, a deadening roar escaped my lips and two leathery wings sprouted from my back, I took to the skies, angered and afraid, there was no way I'd let her do this at least not alone.The guards stationed to guard me seemed to have a field day bickering with one another, silently I unfurled my wings and took to sky burning a hole large enough for my esca
Chapter sixty sixDraculAt first I thought a sort of darkness had encroached the lands, but as we approached getting closer and closer, I realized that they were all men, dressed in armor, that resembled the very blackness of night on a closer look, with magical scouts and it was made known that the influence of Chaos had been far spread among them, drawing heavily on their very essence.The Shadow Army as I'd termed them had incited a deep fear in the once riotously psyched men and women and hushed montones and murmurings sifted it's way through the restless crowd, even the horses neighed in dismay and left to them, they'd have bolted out just like many of the faces."Sire," Alvarez's voice came through to me "They are rustlings in the group, how exactly do we win this war, we have planned but all in all this is not a man, neither is it a man's war, where exactly is Elena?"I stared on ahead, not meeting what I assume to be his heavy gaze, I could not tell him we were going to win,
chapter sixty fiveDraculaI burst out from the meeting hall, me alongside a dozen other men who were leaders in their own right. I bit back the order to send them back inside, but the chatter amidst them had already blossomed and the last thing I needed after that maddened announcement was to incite anger in our 'allies', I spotted Gulliver amidst the crowd and he clutched Elena tightly leading through the intent stares placed on her."What does the entity want with your wife?!" A loud prickly voice resonates through the fast growing crowd. The crowd seemed to part for her from her aged face, and dark eyes that glinted with a sense of maddened intelligence, the litter of her cane sent tremors through the crowd and that was what caused the parting, making way until I came eye to eye with the old crone. "Lady DaSilva of the Earthborns" She said curtsying really lowly and yet I could still sense the defiance rolling off of her "The enemy is upon us and war might begin in nothing short
Chapter sixty fourElenaMy body ached as I moved about, the castle had become more of a fortress with soldiers wide eyed and scary, and scared men alike roaming about, increasing chatters filled every nook and cranny, especially since the sky had taken on the reddish tinge and the wisps of Chaotic magic filled the air whispering and sowing vile seeds of fear in their hearts. I had enough weirdness going around from men gazing at me with reverence and communal, with a certain group of witches who seemed pretty intent on adding me into their coven.In the midst of this tumult and chaos, no pun intended, I'd barely been able to get a glimpse of Dracula, to even hope for some alone time with him was a dream I sparsely had enough time to think about it, Currently I sat listening to some sort of magical brigade intervention squad and even with the end of the world looking and everyone legitimately occupied, I'd just about had enough and I felt the insidious strain of a migraine coming on.
Chapter Sixty threeMiranda My hands shook with fears and madness, I couldn't move, a golden framework of spells netted me down, with the last of his life force Taisfet had cast two spells, One to send the wretched traitor Elena away and the other to tie me down to this damned place. Several days seemed to have passed by and the only sustenance I could get was from feeding Chaos into my body.The tree had wilted and crumbled around me and the last days of Order were wilting away, fading off and with each passing second Taisfet's spell waned off and I drowned in Chaos magic, my pale skin and blackened hands and pale almost white skin were proof of it's infestation, as I fed off it, the veins blackened and my thoughts loosened."Yes child!" Chaos Howled with glee "Embrace it! embrace the darkness, together we'll corrupt this mad world!"The golden binds flickered, I sneered at Taisfet's decomposing form, If only he'd just helped, things wouldn't have come to this, maybe Chaos was righ
chapter sixty twoGulliverThe clouds had darkened above the kingdom, between an oncoming war and a maddened unfit king, I pretty much had my hands filled up, although the straw that broke the camel's back would be Elena's sudden and abrupt disappearance with nothing but a note left behind in her stead, even as I read it over and over again, I could not get any proper emotion save for the intense burning rage that threatened to burn through me, How could she leave at a time like this?Every able bodied shifter folk had been stationed from the castle to the very border of the kingdom and yet a deep sense of foreboding filled me, almost as if I knew that she'd slip out, This was pure madness I wasn't cut out for this I wasn't-. "You know arching your back when doing the walk of intense thinking and also sitting down on that hard throne all day is bound to give you a hunch back." A voice said interrupting my spiralling train of thoughts."Whoever you are get the fuck-"The rest of the w
Chapter sixty oneElenaLeaving was the easy part, with the Chaos threat at hand, father and Gulliver were much too ingrained in their plots and defense mechanism to notice me slip out, after all they didn't see me recovering anytime soon and none of them were seemingly aware of the mystical powers that had been gifted to me by the little one growing inside of me.The hard part itself was the journey, the land had begun to heal, but not quickly enough, one false step would lead to an endless abysmal fall, Not to mention, guards were stationed everywhere even though I'd been explicit in the letter I'd left that I was not to be searched for, Gulliver the stubborn headed goat.There was a strange feeling I had, although the journey was presumably treacherous, it always did feel like I was protected from the brunt of it, like some invisible kind of shield or halo of grace that kept the most ferocious of monsters away, nevertheless I was covered up in scrapes and bruises until I reached th
Chapter SixtyMirandaThe wind howled with a ferocity as I made my way through the woods, the landscape had slowly begun to change from the lush forests to a cold and a harsh rocky terrain, the elements themselves seem to be well against me, pretty hell bent on getting me farther and farther away from him.The wind howled with a ferocity, but even with it's harshness the voice of the entity seemingly stuck in my head yelled out even harsher in my head, it was a miracle that I managed to even move given the burden that weighed down on me.I'd just made camp for the night and from the distance I could hear the faint howling of the wolves, for safety I cast another layer of protection around my tent, maybe such a huge one had been a mistake but it'd been deemed necessary along with two other guards who'd been quickly dispatched off by the teeming monsters in the woods of Valor.It was all the same to me though, I could finally drop the glamour and travel freely across the woods, not to m
Chapter fifty-NineElenaThe guards flew like they were made from putty, each hitting the hard stone walks with resounding thuds followed by the snapping of bones and pained yells, in the end, it had taken over fifteen guards to subdue Dracul enough to let us perform a higher grade ritual on him, even then he struggled madly against the luminescent chains keeping him bound and the guards had quite a problem keeping up.'Now my lady," the captain yells at me. “We cannot hold on much longer.”I glanced at Gulliver who gave a nod and together we proceeded with the spell."Zeruko.. kateak moisten dizugu zoramena lotzeko!" We chanted in unison.The words flowed out of our mouths repetitively and despite the immense drain from my still depleted sources I could see the faint inklings of the spell coming to life around him, my consciousness wavered but I needed to keep going, at least for Dracul's sake."Zeruko kateak otoizten dizugu zoramena lotzeko!" The words flowed faster and I leaned int
Elena~The view from outside my window was beautiful. Green rolling hills and bright blue skies, I was lucky to live in one of the most beautiful parts of the palace and kingdoms.I had enough to eat every day, and the best that life could have to offer. Life is beautiful and sweet and fulfilling.But it came at a cost. I felt my stomach twist nausea rolling waves through my body, I sat down on my bed, sinking into the soft, plush fabric.Every time I tried to distance myself from the upcoming horror I was sucked right back in. Every time I try to calm my racing heart, the steady beating rose again, threatening to consume me.I took a shuddering breath and felt it, blow out against my hands. I was painfully aware, in this moment of just how fragile I was.How easily broken.I shuddered and tried not to think about it too long or too hard, I still have preparation to make. I still had to get ready for my torturous journey.With trembling leg, I made my way to the bath chamber that was
