Lillian PovIt has been 3 days since the incident and we have been staying in Asher’s room because he doesn’t want us alone with a threat roaming around and another reason is he wants me with him, but I have no problems with it. I guess Alma’s plan is just backfiring back at her. But today I woke up with both of them not beside me, which is weird. I went to the bathroom and freshened up and I thought they would be back, but they didn’t. I dressed up and searched the room for any letter may be but I found none. I went outside the room and saw some guards were there.“His majesty told us to escort you to where he is,” the left one said. I nodded my head and followed him. We walked for some time, taking turns and we finally got to where he was. He was training with some other demons. I sat on the bench, watching them train. My eyes ran down his bulky back that was glistening with sweat. Every move he makes his muscles flex, and it was doing something to my stomach. I looked at his hair t
Trigger Warning!Lillian PovA harsh slap bounced off the walls as I lost my vision for a split second, my ears ringing. I groaned, blinking repeatedly as my body aches. A hand grabbed my hair and slammed it against the wall repeatedly and I can feel the blood falling down my head.“You thought you could defeat me,” she growled, grabbing my jaw and looking into my eyes. I chuckled, forgetting about the pain circulating around my head.“I did though, because Asher will never love you,” I whispered, glaring into her cold eyes. She punched my jaw, sending me to the floor. I heard a loud crack in the icy wall of my former room. It has been a few days since I locked Sky up and I was waiting patiently for Asher not to be around. I know immediately she is coming for me and I was right because immediately Asher left. I was suddenly in this room with Alma here.“Strip” she growled. I ignored her, laying on the floor.“Strip!” she yelled, kicking my ribs. I groaned, holding my stomach as she ki
Asher PovIt has been just a few hours and we haven’t found Lillian and now I am totally worried. Where could she have gone? “We did not find her, your majesty,” a guard said, running to me. We have checked everywhere, including Zira’s room, but she is not there, so where could she be? Sky also runs to me with no Lillian and the poor thing looks so worried. I thought about all the places we would go together and I realized we did not check her former room. “Follow me, Sky,” I said, taking a fast stride to her room. I just really hope she is there. It is still a mystery to me because the guards are still saying she did not go out and I had to break into their mind and they still said the same thing. How can she have left the room with no one noticing? We got to her room and I hope she was there. I slammed the door open and what I saw shocked me to the bone. Lillian was on the floor, naked and laying in a pool of blood. Her body was laced with deep scars, like she was stabbed and b
Asher PovIt has been a few weeks since Octavia took Lillian and Zira and I have not laid my eyes on them nor did I know how they are fairing because I have been too busy looking for Alma. It’s like she just disappeared. I do not know where she is. We have searched the palace and the kingdom and the entire kingdom has been informed to look out for her because she is a criminal now but still yet she is nowhere. We searched her room, and I even got some witches to inspect her room for any magical essence, because she can’t have just disappeared. The only magical thing they found are the mirrors, apparently the mirrors can find someone and the person will just be watching who they want to find like a television. There are mirrors everywhere in her bathroom and closet and we even found so many sex toys with my pictures and it just makes me sick because we all know what she has been doing with those mirrors. I couldn’t stand straight after what I discovered. I felt sick because I did no
Asher PovI walked behind them nervously, wondering how she was doing. I haven’t even asked how the journey went with Zira. I guess I will ask after seeing Lillian. We got to a room and Silver opened the room and we all entered. It is a big room with a king sized bed. There are so many machines and wires and Lillian laid on the bed, wearing a blue gown. They fixed the wires in her body and she is even wearing an oxygen mask. I look at the blood bag. That must be Octavia’s blood because it will help with her wolf. Sky laid beside her, sleeping peacefully, his paw on her head like he wants to make sure she is still beside him. Well, I had to ship him here a few hours after Octavia left; he was whining loudly for her.“Poor thing has been so worried,” Octavia said, looking at him. I walked to the bed and sat beside her. I can’t see her full face well, but she is pale.“Is she alive?” I asked, looking at them. Octavia sat beside Sky, brushing his fur.“We can’t say yet. We flushed out the
Asher PovIt has been two weeks since I got here and Lillian is yet to wake up, but Zira is back on her feet and she is okay now. I can definitely see the glow in her as she spends time with her cousins and Ria. She doesn’t smile much in my kingdom. That is why I want to talk to Octavia and Lillian about the curse. Maybe we can break it. I want to be a better mate and father; I want them to be happy. The demons deserve a change; they are already so used to my father’s ruling and his wicked ways and it has to stop. We are not different from other kingdoms and we shouldn’t just because we are demons. I got to the conference room and everyone is here and everyone is Octavia, Silver, Axel and Liya, who is the new head warrior. I went to my seat beside Octavia and this just makes me remember when I was the Beta.“You want to tell us something,” she said.“Yes, ever wondered why the demon kingdom is always dark?” I asked.“No, I just believed you guys just love dark things,” she replie
Asher Pov“So, who are we meeting?” Silver asked as we flew across the sky. He had to shrink himself to Lillian's size before I could carry him. I guess because he is a giant, that is why he has so much weight.“My elder sister, her name is Martha. She is the father‘s first child that I know of, “I said. “How old is she?” he asked.“More than a thousand. She is ancient and I am sure she will know something about Ophelia,” I said.“But who is the artist?” he asked. “She is an artist, so she can do that herself,” I replied. He nodded his head, and we flew quietly over the sky.“I am happy Lillian chose you,” he said out of the blue. I looked at him, raising my eyebrows.“You almost beat me to death when you found out about it,” I reminded him. Well, I knew that day would come soon when he would find out about Lillian and I betrayer to Killian and his reaction was not disappointing but expected. What surprised me was Octavia, then she was so quiet and timid and she was the one who help
Asher PovMy mouth hung open at that revelation. She is my cousin? All this while she knows her relationship with me still, yet she is doing all this?“Why are you so shocked?” she asked.“You do not know what she has done because of her useless obsession with me,” I exclaimed.“She is in love with you?” she asked.“Not in love. She is obsessed. She did terrible things to my mate and daughter just so she can get rid of them,” I said.“Where is she now?” she asked.“We do not know. I was trying to make this kingdom conducive for Lillian and Zira when they come back now. I am just hearing this,” I said. Somehow, the situation keeps getting worse. Alma is my cousin, and she knows and still does not care about her stupid crush on me.“As a king, you have to have elders, people you discuss matters with, not just one person who can mislead you. There are so many ways you can make the kingdom conducive. I have been to the mortal world, werewolf kingdom, vampire and even fairies and their wor
Asher POV The music changed and was louder; the whole place was dark. The door opened, revealing Archie. Silver is on his right, and Dean is on his left. The three of them wear the same golden robes. The robes are long, flowing behind them. Their hair was gelled backwards, and their faces were void of any emotion as they walked in perfect sync. I feel proud looking at Archie. He looks so much like Silver; the only difference is his hair. They could mistake them for twins, and his aura matched Silver’s. They both have the same aura; now I get why Dean never wants to be king. In terms of power and strength, he is no match for Archie; Archie is powerful for his age. But one thing I know is that their bond is very strong, and they will always look out for each other. I heard someone sniffing, and I turned to Lillian, who was cleaning her tears. "Please, not now," I begged in my mind, holding her hand. "Look at them, Asher; I just wish my father was here," she said. I sighed. "He will
Five Years LaterAsher POV"Are you ready?" I asked, entering the room with Zira behind me. She breathed out, looking back at me."Yes," she said, standing up and stretching her back. I chuckled as she adjusted her hair. I peck her cheeks, rubbing her small bump as she breathes out."You look so dazzling in this dress," I said, admiring her golden dress. She is wearing a stunning gold dress. The dress is long, tightening her curves in the right places, including her small but obvious bump. The back of the dress is low, showing her beautiful and creamy skin. I used her long hair to cover her back, as I didn’t want anybody staring at her. She rolled her eyes."Not now, Asher," she said, turning to face me. I chuckled, still adjusting her hair."Is everyone ready?" she asked."Yes, we are waiting for her honourable majesty to be done with her dressing," I said."Okay, let’s go," she said, checking herself out again."Mom, you look good. Let’s go," Zira said. Lillian turned to her, lookin
Lillian POVThe sound of someone crying woke me up from my sleep. I opened my eyes slowly, adjusting my eyesight to the light. I looked up a bit, and I saw Asher crying on my stomach. I looked at him, confused, wondering why he was crying. I have been in the hospital for three days now and my body is feeling better. I have been sleeping a lot and I feel it’s because of the drugs. I have been eating at a slow rate and still vomiting, but otherwise I am fine, so I do not know why he is crying so hard on my stomach."Did someone die?" I asked, putting my hand on his head. He looked up at me, his eyes red, and I wondered how long he had been crying. He didn’t reply to me, instead he hugged me to himself, still crying. The last time Asher cried like this was when we lost our pup and found out we can’t have a child again and I was scared, wondering what happened again."What is it Asher? You are scaring me," I said, pulling back. He moved back, smiling and cleaning his tears."You won’t bel
Lillian POV "For your punishment, your family and you will pay all expenses made in the kingdom. Any expense not covered by the little prince and any expense you make that is not from the money given to you will be paid. All the rank you and your family once had will be removed, and now you are just a common villager. You and your family are blocked from nearing the palace, and as a punishment for deceiving the king, you will spend a complete 10 years on the farm. I would have allowed you to see your son, but you treated him horribly. I will see to it he knows his mother, and if one day he wishes to see his mother, he will be permitted," I said. She fell to her knees, tears falling from her eyes. I know her family is terribly broke because they spent all the money. Yes, I did my research. They are officially blocked from the palace, which means everyone will know of their crimes, and they might never find a good place to work that will earn them enough to pay their debt. Technically,
Lillian POVWe entered the throne room, and everyone was there. And by everyone, I mean the elders, Jasmin, I, and Asher. Everyone greeted us as we entered, except Jasmin. I smirked internally. I am doing this in front of everyone, so when I give her the punishment, the world won’t say I was supposed to kick her out, and besides, she is a nuisance. Asher was a bit confused, as he has not seen Jasmin since the time we visited her in the hospital. We sat down on our thrones, and I just smiled at everyone while they all had confused faces. We are in the morning; we don’t do meetings in the morning."Good morning, your majesty. Why have you called this urgent meeting so early in the morning?" the elder in front of me asked. And they all turned to me, including Asher."Yes, I believe Queen Jasmin here has something to tell us. Perhaps a secret," I said, and they all turned to her. She looked at me back, confused."I don’t have any secrets," she said."Are you sure?" I asked."Yes, I am ver
One Month Later**********************Lillian POVI gagged into the toilet, my stomach turning like something was twisting my intestine."Gently," Asher said, rubbing my back as he held my hair up. I couldn’t reply to him as I vomited all the foods and snacks I ate in the night, my throat hurting. I breathe out, moving back a bit as my body is so exhausted."Damn," I mumbled, opening my eyes, and just seeing my vomit made my unsettled stomach rile up again. I hold the toilet, vomiting every left food in my stomach. After I was done, I sat on the floor weakly."Are you okay?" he asked. I nod my head. He helped me up and took me to the zinc weekly. Then I washed my mouth, feeling empty."You have to go to the hospital," he said, taking my brush."I’m fine," I mumbled."You are not fine; you look pale," he said. I looked at him, and he looked worried, but I can’t go anywhere today as I planned on exposing Jasmin today. Everything is ready; no sickness can stop me."Trust me, I’m fine,"
Lillian POVWe are in the afternoon, and we just got to the palace. The injured warriors have been rushed to the infirmary, and the uninjured have gone to freshen up. We are supposed to freshen up, but Asher called a meeting with the elders, and now we are on our way. We got to the throne room, and they were all smiling. Obviously, the entire kingdom is aware of what happened in the night, and they are all rejoicing, but Asher wasn’t smiling at them. His face was tainted with blood, and it also stained his armour with blood, which he refused to clean. He looked dangerous with his blank face and the bloody sword he was holding in his hand."Your majesties," they greet, bowing. I took my seat while Asher stood."We have heard the news, your majesty. We are victorious, and the kingdom rejoices with you," an elder says."Where are Jose and Martin?" he asked. They looked at each other, confused, and I wonder what he was playing out when he knows they were dead."We do not know, your majest
Lillian POVI don’t know how long it has been, but I have saved so many warriors and also killed so many shadow monsters, and those things are hard to kill, so I electrified them before killing them and that works like a charm. The field is ugly and smelly, dead bodies everywhere. You can’t walk around the field freely. The stench is awful and the monsters keep increasing."You guys need to see this," Silver mind link. I looked at Octavia at the far end. We can’t kill all of them, their strength can’t be compared to ours and if this continues we would get exhausted fast. The warriors are already exhausted and barely surviving."Get everyone to safety!" I yelled. "Okay, you guys go!" she yelled back. Asher came to me and he teleported us to Silver. I looked at the seal and it was twirling dangerously, like the bigger seal she did, water spurting out."It’s changing color," Silver said, and truly the water was changing into a bright pink. Then it twirls harder, changing into a dark red
Lillian POV"Lillian," a voice called, shaking me. I turned around slightly, opening my eyes."We are here," Asher said. I sat up, looking around, and everywhere was dark and gloomy. This gives me that chilling feeling that hell gave me. I can’t believe I slept throughout the journey. I must have been tired, I thought, yawning."Where is my helmet?" I asked, touching my head. He carried it up, placing it on my head."I removed it because it was too heavy for you to sleep," he said, adjusting my hair. Then he turned me around on Sky. I looked down, and I couldn't see anything, but I felt like there was something here. Suddenly the wind became very harsh, blowing us harshly, but Sky flew through it, and it was like we were sucked into another dimension because in front of me was a big mansion.There were monsters flying around; there were growls, howls, and swords clashing. This place was dark; hideous monsters made themselves known, and the air smelled like death. I pull down my helmet
