Lillian PovIt was silent in the courtroom and the demons seems mad but not like I give a fuck. They are the ones causing all these problems, them and their stupid allies, vampires. Birds of the same feather, now vampires are terrorizing them and instead of them getting mad at the vampires, they are blaming the wolves for it. They are the ones who looked for trouble first. The wolves were on their own. But now at least I know where their loyalty lies and also what they see about wolves.“As she said, investigations will be carried out and people involved will be punished accordingly. Now everyone out,” Asher said in the quiet courtroom. They all stood up and bowed before leaving, and that particular elder glared at me before leaving. The court room was quiet, leaving just Asher and I. I slumped on my throne breathing out.“Great, now I made them hate me more,” I said, rubbing my temple. Today has been a long day for me, probably the longest day ever.“But you stood up for yourself and
Lillian PovThe guard said, still breathing out and it was silent for a few seconds.“How many people have they killed?” Asher asked.“A lot, your majesty. They have killed most of the guards and it is a bloodbath there,” he said. And still yet these elders are supporting those blood suckers.“Okay, get 20 guards to ready. We leave in 30 minutes,” he said.“Okay, my lord, ‘’ he said, running out of the courtroom.“Meeting over,” Asher said, standing up. I also stand up.“But won’t you take one of us there, your majesty?” an elder asked.“Knowing how supportive you are to the vampires, I’d rather not,” he said, not waiting for any response, and he walked out. I followed behind him, trying to hide my smile. Serve them right, and that is the perfect answer for them.“Ivan, would you like to come with me?” Asher asked him while still walking.“I won’t mind that, your majesty,” he replied.“Okay, put on your armor and meet us in front of the courtroom in 30 minutes,” he said.“Okay, your m
Lillian PovIt all happened so fast and I watched in shock as Asher moved like the wind, carrying the bodies that were falling. He caught them all except one that fell to the concrete fall, making a loud cracking sound. I flinched, looking away from the body. Then I looked up and there were so many vampires in the window. How are they so many? I was shocked, but that thought didn’t last long as I heard a loud boom, sending us all to the floor. But Sky protected my body from any injury. I looked up as I heard a screeching sound. It was a demon, and he was ready to attack.“What are you doing in our territory, wolf?” he growled, a few feet away from us. He is a big demon and his mouth and body are bloody. Definitely, he has killed so many. He ran towards me, about to attack, but Sky stood in front of me growling and I watched in shock as the demon burn into pieces. What remained of him was dust. I definitely didn’t know he could do that. Asher said something to Sky in that language and
Lillian PovThe sound of running water woke me up. I sat up on the bed, yawning. Sky is no longer here, but I can hear the shower running. I stood up from the bed, going to the bathroom and when I got there, a bloody Asher was having his bath. I looked down, and I saw drops of blood and even the bathroom floor was bloody, like he was bathing in blood. I walked closer to him, wondering if he got injured.“Are you okay?” I asked, opening the shower door. He turned to me, his hair wet. He came closer to me and checked my body, his hand wetting the slim material of my nightgown.“Sky told me what they did,” he said, after inspecting me. That damn hellhound. I shouldn’t even be surprised.“Don’t mind them, you know they don’t like me,” I said, touching his arm that was red. Something definitely injured him there, but it is already healing.“That doesn’t mean they get to disrespect you in my absence,” he said, and I could tell he was still furious about it. I smiled, nudging him. “They are
Lillian Pov“Are you okay?” Mike asked during our training. I breathe out heavily, cleaning the sweet on my face.“Yes, why?” I asked. “You look pale,” he said, looking at me worriedly.“I am fine, let’s continue,” I said. “No, I think it is better you take a rest, we will continue next time” he said, his voice hard so I won’t argue with him and I didn’t because I felt tired. It has been two weeks since what happened on the north border, and I have barely seen Asher. He is not around most days and only comes back when I am asleep. We just cuddle because he will be so tired and before I wake up, he is gone again. We have had none proper conversation and I know he is doing his best for the kingdom, but I just miss him. “Sky, let’s go,” I said, turning to him. He walked to me and we left together, wondering where Ivan was. We got to the room and when I opened it Mirabel was inside and she seemed to do something suspicious based on how she was looking at me.“What are you doing?” I ask
Asher PovI stare at Ivan’s dead body, my body filled with so much sadness. The entire floor is bloody, and he was stabbed in the stomach, making me remember what happened to Lillian. How do I explain this to her? I can see she saw him like a little brother and now he is dead. I bent down and checked his pulse. Nothing. “Can you sense his wolf?,” I asked Ryder. “No, he has been dead for sometime,” he replied. I breathed out, looking into his blank eyes that were filled with so much horror. Then I stood up.“Give him a proper burial and search the room for anything suspicious,” I said, leaving the room. I head to the ward and as I am going, I try to connect the dots. Someone poisoned Lillian through her skin and the head maid confirms she saw Mirabel mixing a batter. Mirabel is nowhere to be found, and the only person who would have had evidence of what just happened is dead. Which can only mean Mirabel has had us fooled. She came here with an evil intent but she seemed so innocent.
Lillian PovIt has been two days since I was here and according to the doctor I will leave today as there are no traces of poison in my body. I cried about Ivan because it hurts to lose someone you have grown attached to and it’s even more painful because he died because of me. But Asher has told me not to blame myself. He would have died anyway when protecting me. I just hope he is in a better place. A loud boom cut me out of my thoughts, shaking the room I was in. I held onto the bed, shocked and confused about what was happening. Suddenly a black beam started forming in front of me, twirling the things in the ward and I held the bed tighter, scared of what was happening.“Lillian!” I heard Asher’s voice from behind the door, but I couldn’t answer him because my eyes were fixed on the beam. I could also hear a body colliding into the bathroom door and that is Sky, because he went there to use the bathroom.“Lillian! Open the door!” he yelled, banging on the door furiously. The beam
Lillian PovI don’t know how long I have been here, but it might have been long. I miss Asher so much and I wonder how he is doing, but the good news is, Ophelia has really been taking care of me. She put me in this beautiful room that has a fancy bathroom. She makes sure I eat and bathe well. Every time she comes here, she comes here with a big smile, like she is happy to see me. I don’t know if she is delusional, because I am still wondering how she knows my mother. But she never spoke a word to me. She just hums, gives me leg massages, or she sits me in front of the mirror doing beautiful hairstyles on my hair. I am still trying to figure her out, and she is truly looking like the legend says. Legend says she was the most beautiful woman in her prime and at first when I saw her she looked so ugly and old, but gradually her skin is turning into a beautiful creamy skin. Her sunken skin is gaining fat and her cheeks have become rosy and her lips red. She looks like a goddess as the
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
