The men proudly walked into the palace hall, and the king counted five of them. An outstanding one stood in the middle, and his uniqueness could be seen in the way he carried himself, as the other four only walked behind him, moving only when he moved. They paused in the middle of the hall, not making a sound. As if coming to their senses, the king's guards ran towards the men with their swords drawn. The man in the middle merely waved his hands, and the guards were sent flying all over the hall.

"Magic!" The king gasped, feeling fear slowly crawling over him.

"Your highness, we have come to receive the debt you owe us." The one in the middle powerfully called out. The queen removed her hands from the king's, jerking her head towards the one who had spoken.

"What are you doing, my love? Get behind me!" The king whispered, scared when he saw his wife descending the throne stairs. He tried futilely to drag her back behind him. It was as if the queen wasn't in control o

    Elena made her way to her grandfather's study. After being in the castle for weeks, she could finally navigate her way around it. She arrived at the big mahogany doors and knocked, waiting for permission to come in. "Enter." The king called out almost immediately. Elena slowly opened the door and peeped inside. The king was already facing her. "Elena, come in. We have been waiting for you." Elena looked at her uncle, who had a weird smile as he stood next to the king. She scrunched her brows, curious as she entered the room, closing the door quietly behind her. "Is there a problem?" She asked. "Whatever gave you that idea?" Her grandfather exclaimed as if even the thought of it was evil. She turned to face Wazir. "The way Wazir is looking at me right now." She still hadn't gotten used to calling Wazir her uncle, and when he noticed her discomfort, he told her that she could continue calling him as she had; he didn't mind. Wazir chuckled, walking over

    Elena stood by the kingdom gates, waving goodbye to those who had come out to see her. Her grandparents were still in the castle, as it was inconvenient for them to see her out. Her grandmother had cried and hugged her tightly when she was leaving, and she promised her grandmother that she would be back. She also made her grandmother promise to be strong for her and her grandfather. She wanted to come back to a lively castle. Her grandmother had nodded her head, adhering to her wish. Mac and Wazir had followed her and Forest to the kingdom's gates. Forest was adamant about not leaving her alone, and Elena surmised that he was still in trauma from her kidnap incident. Mac was trying so hard to hide his tears, and so Elena promised him to try and create a branch of the Red Queen's restaurant in the kingdom of Tush, making his dreams come to life. Mac immediately brightened and stopped his tearing, enveloping her in a big hug. Wazir also hugged her tightly, which she returned,

    Queen Navina's brother walked around the room, hands folded tightly across his chest. He was pacing about, taking in the information that his sister had just told him. "You know that this is a big problem." He started. "If the elders find out about this, things are going to head south." The room fell into another deep silence, the severity of the information clouding what would have been a joyful meet. "You know," the queen said slowly. "Now that I think of it, I do believe that the leaders knew of my incident." Her brother turned to face her. "What makes you say that?" "Think about it. They were the ones who trained the chosen and taught her how to control her powers. Wouldn't they also know how to tell when a person is being controlled by her? After being with her for such a long time, I doubt they wouldn't recognize the signs." Her brother nodded his head, placing his fingers on his chin as he thought deeply. "What you are saying does make sense." He r

    The next day came earlier than ought. Barely able to sleep due to how dry the weather had been the previous night, Elena woke up somewhat disgruntled. She stretched herself before rising from the bed, stretching again as her hands lifted, wiping any remaining trace of sleep. She walked to the bathroom in her room adjacent to her bed and freshened up. She looked hale when she stepped out, though traces of tiredness could still be seen on her face. She walked back to her bed and picked up her belongings, then made her way out of the room. Once she made her way to the passage, she was greeted by the scent of a delicious meal. Swallowing her immediate hunger, she made her way to Forest's room, knocking on his door before silently opening it. Forest's bed was empty when she entered, and thinking that he must have made his way downstairs, she started to back out of the room when Forest immediately came out of his bathroom. He was dressed and looked like he had a good night

    Elena immediately packed her things and ran downstairs to the serving area of the inn. She paused and turned back, looking at the bartender that had come for her. "Where was he kidnapped?" She asked, her voice sharper than usual. "He went out early this morning to feed your horse, and suddenly he was attacked by some men and thrown over into their carriage." "Can you describe these men for me?" "They wore black masks, and their faces were shielded by a black hood. Every other attire they wore was black." Elena paced, trying to draw up a plan. Firstly, she had never been to this place before, so she didn't know anyone who would want to attack her and Forest. Even if she did, she doubted she would be able to attack them by herself. She ran out of the inn, and the bartender called for her. "Where are you going?" She didn't reply. She didn't know how she would do it, but she would find Forest, even if it meant risking her life. She walked over to where th

    Elena stood there speechless, not knowing how to approach the situation. Of all the things going on in her head about what would happen to Forest, the one of him being treated like a king wasn't what she thought would happen. She slowly lowered her sword and called out unsurely. "Forest?" Immediately, all eyes in the room turned to where she stood. While Forest's eyes widened when he saw her, the women who surrounded him stood up immediately and drew out their swords. "How did you enter here?" One of them shouted. It turned out that her guess was correct. The kidnappers were women. She looked at all the women facing her like she was some intruder. They had not expected someone to enter in and rob them though they left their doors wide open. Hell, they had even been in the storage room where they kept their stolen riches. Elena also found it funny how they all stood at attention, with their swords drawn to attack while wearing heavy dresses. If they were members o

    The attraction Calhoun felt towards the woman was instant, surprising him as he had searched for a woman that would make him feel that way for days. Worst of all, he barely knew her, and he found himself wishing that she was smart as she was beautiful. "I apologize." He said, his voice coming out hoarsely. The lady rubbed her forehead as she stepped back from him. "It's okay." She said, turning to look behind her. Calhoun scrunched his brows, looking behind her to see what she was looking at. There was no one there, so he turned back to look at her, wondering who she was looking for. "Can you please give me a moment of your time? I wish to ask you a question." Calhoun nodded his head, permitting her to ask him whatever she wished. He found that even if she never asked, he would have looked for a way to keep her close to him for much longer. "Do you know anyone who is called Old Porv?" She was looking for the old man? Today had to be his lucky day. Instead

  • The Blood King's Bride   Epilogue

    Two months later...It was finally the D-day for Elena and Calhoun's wedding. It has been two months since the warriors and soldiers of the Blood kingdom and the Kingdom of Neba all returned to their kingdoms, respectively. When Elena and her husband arrived back in the Kingdom, the people shouted in joy, chanting cheers of victory. Elena felt overwhelmed by the praise. She wasn't used to that many people liking her. The past king and queen of Neba welcomed her with open arms. They had heard about what had taken place on the field, and they were extremely proud. A vigil was held for the warriors who had lost their lives in battle, and a monument with their names on it was erected in their favor. Families of the late warriors were taken under the care of the Royal family. Once they finally had some private time to themselves, Calhoun didn't waste any more time and immediately started to ravish her. He missed her; immensely. As he held her tightly in his arms, he poured

    Elena slowly opened her eyes, trying to get her surroundings. She tried to move, but the pains that racked her body caused her to wince, advising her to remain in the position she was in.“Elena? Elena, it’s me.” A voice said to her. She tried to move her head, but it was impossible. She could only stare straight at the tent ceiling. Noticing her dilemma, the voice owner bent to look properly at her. Elena started crying once she saw the face; the tears came out slowly before they poured down like a flood.“Calhoun!” Elena said, her voice hoarse.“Yes, Darling. It’s me.” He answered. He had also teared up; the joy surrounding his heart was encompassing. “I thought... I thought you were gone.”“You stupid girl.” Calhoun said, gently removing a tendril of hair from her face. “That isn’t enough to kill me. I am the blood king remember? I might not have been as strong as Firoza, but that doesn’t mean I can’t protect myself from attacks. I have powers too.”Ele

    The war field was engulfed in silence. Then the screaming began. All the people who had their sense of control ripped from them fell to the ground, holding their heads in their hands and screaming their lungs out. It was like a repeat of what had happened in the kingdom of Pres, Wazir thought. Whoever had been controlling them had been killed, and from the look of things, the person had to be Slovic, the huge monster. Wazir wished to be closer to the main battle, but he knew that he was safer inside the barrier. The people there needed someone they could look up to as their main leaders fought. He looked towards the main fighting ground again and hoped that his niece was fine.Elena was panting heavily after killing the monster. The naked body of the man who she had just killed lay on the bloodied ground, his face still in shock even after death. Slowly, Elena rose from the ground as her husband rushed to support her."Are you alright?" he asked, his face drenched

    She slammed into Slovic hard, sending him flying several feet away, but she didn't cease in her assault. She was adamant about putting an end to him. His blood, his death, was the only thing that drew her attention. Firoza, she assumed, would attack her if she began to beat up her ally. On the other hand, the woman merely stayed standing, her head cocked. Her face had a thoughtful expression on it.Calhoun stood behind her, ready to intervene if she had any thoughts of retaliating against them. He was anxious about his wife, but he noticed that she had a resolute expression on her face. She wouldn't stop until Slovic was dealt with. She had no choice except to kill him herself.She needed to demonstrate her worth.Calhoun was aware of the situation. He knew that ending Slovic would be a minor inconvenience for him. In reality, he was tempted to do so because of the man's previous treatment of his wife. But he kept his cool and let his wife handle things.Slovic was perpl

    "No!" Elena exclaimed, collapsing on her knees next to her father. With shaking hands, she tried to stop his bleeding. It proved futile as his blood gushed out the more. Her father groaned, every part of his body in severe pain. He looked at his daughter—the daughter he had wronged for years. She had become a woman now, and she was beautiful, just like her mom. However, she carried the majority of her attributes from her maternal grandmother. She was crying over him, and he wanted nothing but to wipe her tears away. She shouldn't worry about him. She was never at fault; he was. He could finally meet his love and tell her about their daughter. He wished he could have spent more time with her. Fate had other plans, it seemed. It was better for him that he died at her hand. He didn't think he would be able to survive if he killed his daughter. He had lost so much already, all for his greed for power. "Don't die," he heard her whisper repeatedly. He wished he could honour her wi

    Silence and dread permeated the air. A reddish black smoke rose from the air to the darkened sky, and everyone's view was on it. Elena paused her strike on Slovic to look up at the sky. Calhoun was already facing the encounter with a deep scowl on his face. "What is going on here?" the shrill voice questioned. "Why am I seeing more people than expected?" The smoky cloud surrounding the voice's owner dissipated to reveal Firoza in a black armour gown, her flowing black hair kept loose. She looked around the battlefield with an evil smile, beaming at the soldiers."Not what I had been expecting." Slowly, she made her descent to the ground, several feet from where Elena, Calhoun, and Slovic were. The latter, who was almost unconscious, but was still smiling, called out in a frail voice."Niece, you are finally around. What took you so long?" Firoza turned around to face him and smiled once she saw Calhoun. "Calhoun!" she called out, her expression changing imm

    Elena's world shattered into pieces. Everything she had ever believed, everything that she had thought was true, her whole world was built on lies."Oh, I see that my story touched you. That's good. Well it's too bad though, I'll not be able to hear your take on it. You have to die."Elena lay there, not aware of her surroundings anymore. Even after Slovic struck her, causing her to fly several meters away, she still didn't care. Her whole world had just been turned upside down. She landed with a heavy thud against the corpses of soldiers who had been killed. Something in her must-have ruptured because she started choking out blood. Her head was bleeding, the blood flowing to her face and blocking her eyesight. She tried getting up, but she couldn't move her limbs. She planted her elbows steady on the ground, trying to balance herself, yet they gave out, causing her to lie back down. Slovic appeared before her, tsking. "You are not as strong as I thought you were." He said
