Lola is swimming near the shallow parts of the river, mindful not to go to the deeper side. The demon servant is waiting near the shore, carefully holding her mistress's clothes. Neither of them noticed a cloaked person lurking in the shadows. When the maid is distracted, that person came up behind her and snapped the demon's neck to one side.
The maid lifelessly fell on the muddy shore, with her eyes wide open. The cloaked person then collected the maid's body along with the clothes of the princess and silently slipped away from there undetected.
When Lola began to feel numb by soaking longer in the water and the water began to get cold, she decided to come out. But when she searched for the maid, she didn't find her anywhere.
"Shangi?" Lola called for her, but only silence greeted her.
Lola frowned. This has never happened before and she began to feel uneasy.
'Shangi never leaves me alone. Then where is she now? And where are my cloth
The moment Lucas shifted into his dragon form, every single demon in the vicinity screamed with fear. They rushed out of his way to avoid being stamped on by the huge dragon feet. But Lucas didn't stay there long. The moment he shifted into his dragon form, he flew away in a blink of their eyes.To the people of the underworld, dragons are a myth. Even though they heard about dragons, No one saw one before. Everyone is amazed to see one but scared as well. They all could sense the raw power of Lucas, as his power is coming from him in waves. They guessed he is not a human, but they never thought he might be a dragon.If they did, then they might have been more careful around him. He can destroy the entire royal palace in just a minute, and he wouldn't even drop a sweat doing that.Soon, this news began to spread all around the palace and even Belial got to hear this news. He is shocked to hear that."What? He is a dragon?" Belial asked his friend Ab
When Lola pulled him towards her, he understood what she wants. So without making it much more difficult for her, he laid down on top of her, mindful not to crush her with all of his weight. When she relaxed in his hold, he changed their position and made her sleep on him instead. He wrapped the discarded quilt over them and began to infuse her body with his dragon heat so that she would recover faster.He never liked the taste of fear. She is the one who introduced him to the feeling of fear. He experienced it for the first time when he heard from her father that she is unwell. Since then it refused to leave him. He is scared that something might happen to her and the person who is trying to kill her will become the reason.When he couldn't find her anywhere in the palace, fear gripped him in its unyielding grip and refused to let go. He was just a second away from killing someone when he heard her scream. Her unconscious body floating on the water is something he sti
Lola is dreaming. In her dream, a man wearing a black cloak is choking her and she couldn't free herself from his hold. She couldn't breathe and she is losing the battle with that man.'You have to die. Your father has to suffer that man sneered while increasing the pressure around her neck to cut off her air supply completely.'No, let me go' Lola is trying to push him away with all her might. But she is feeling like she is in an ice chamber. Her limbs feel heavy and she is feeling weak. So she is not a match to that Man's strength.'Die just like my family died. You don't deserve to live ' that man said as if he is spitting venom with each word he is uttering.'No' she whispered.Dark spots began to dance near the edges of her eyes. She thought she is going to die today. But just then, she felt like she heard him.Lola heard Lucas's voice."Love is not the right word to describe how I feel for you. I am obsessed with you.
Don't think about letting other men touch you" he added the last statement to divert her concentration from the incident that scared her a few hours ago. Just like he thought, it worked like a charm and she giggled. "Did anyone tell you that you are a cave man?" She asked with humor. He raised a single eyebrow, and looked at her with a half smile. "I mean, you issue statements like 'You are mine' just like cavemen " she teased him using his mannerism to mimic him. He shook his head at her antiques. "No one told me anything like that, because I never issued such statements before. You are the first. Even I did, no one has the courage to point it out in front of me" he replied with a smirk. Now Lola rolled her eyes at him. "Let's just think I am yours for now. But you wouldn't know which man I will seduce after you leave underworld" she pointed out. The image of Lola wearing transparent clothes infront of any other ma
"Relax princess, I know what I want and what I am doing. So don't think too much" he neither agreed with her nor disagreed, which Lola noticed.She tried to move away from his lap. She is not understanding his sudden behaviour change. She knows that they cannot be together. So it's better to stop this before it gets too far. Moreover, sitting on his lap without a stitch of clothing is not the way you talk about something like this.Lucas didn't let her go, which made her frustrated. He understood what she is doing. She is trying to push him away even be9fore he confessed his feelings towards her. She sensed that something changed between them, so she is pushing him away.He would have let her go if he didn't realise his feelings for her. But now that he knows she is the one for him, no force in this world will make him leave her."Lucas, I am tired. Let me go. I want to go to sleep" she lied without looking him in the eyes.He smi
"Today I want this" she whispered. He looked at her intently. "I will give it to you, but will you promise me one thing" he asked her. Lola nodded her head readily. "I don't share princess. Once this is in, then you will belong to me until we both decide otherwise. I will be the only one who will touch you, kiss you and sleep beside you. Do you agree?" he asked her. She has to know that he is serious about her. This is the first step towards building their relationship between them. Lola smirked at his request. He is the only one who could get away with anything. She is not interested in anyone either. "Hmmm, so how long are we talking about here? One week? One month? One year?" She asked coyly. Lucas gave her a mysterious smile. "As long as I want you. Maybe I will not be satisfied having you for one year. It might take ten years, maybe twenty, who knows?" he replied with a smile. Lola
The next morning Lola woke up wrapped in a thick quilt. Lucas is nowhere to be found. She frowned when she noticed the place beside her where he slept in is cold to touch. That is telling her that he left a long while ago.'He is an introvert. He never sleeps with the same woman twice. Once he is done, he will never look at that woman again. But one cannot tell the same about the woman he sleeps with. A few of them did some stupid stuff to attract his attention, which never succeed. Once he is done, he is done 'Lola began to remember the words of her human PI whom she hired to investigate a little about the man who kidnapped her.Lola looked at the empty space beside her, as a heavy feeling began to settle on her heart. She is not like this. He declared that she belongs to him, but disappeared the next morning.She is not understanding why her eyes became moist and why she is feeling betrayed. They are not in a relationship or anything. They
One look at Lucas, and she began to crumble. Tears began to roll down her cheeks and she couldn't control her cries of guilt and loss. She is guilty that a person died because of her. That man came to kill Lola, but her maid was killed instead. "I am sorry Shangi" she cried while apologizing to her friend and maid. Guilt is an unbearable burden. No one can stay upright under its weight. Her guilt crumbled even Lola. Lucas couldn't bear to see her in such a state. He pulled her into his arms, ignoring the gasps of shock and surprise from the audience behind him. Lola wrapped her arms around him and hid her face in his chest. She cried from the loss of another friend. She remembered their time together and began to cry harder. She is blaming herself for the loss of Shangi's life. That man is angry with her father, so he wanted to kill Lola. But unfortunately, Shangi became a casualty. Minister Baron has a satisfying expression on his face. Even thou

In that town lives a girl named Ariel, who lost both her parents. Her father was an army man, who perished doing his duty. Her mother who couldn't live away from her father relocated to the town where her father died so that she could stay close to her husband. After a few years, she too passed away with heartache, leaving the teenager alone. Ariel finished her school and began to work part-time for her expenses. Their house which is situated at the end of the town is the only thing left behind by her parents. She disguises herself as a boy to protect herself from bullies. Ares is born as Atticus, the chief military officer stationed near the borders of Wimbledon. Despite being young, he climbed the ranks with his smart war skills and accurate predictions. To date, not a
Lucian began to court Faiya, which Lucas didn't like at all. "He is trying to win her over" he grumbled one day with his wife Lola. Lola laughed at his anxiety. "Why are you so against it anyway? She came of age and he already asked your permission for this. You agreed then with the condition that he should not court her untill she turns eighteen. Now when she turned eighteen and he is trying softly to win her heart, you don't look like you are liking it at all" she pointed out. Lucas grumbled with displeasure. Lucian asked his permission for Faiya's hand a few years ago. He know Faiya dosent like Lucian much. So Lucas agreed thinking that his daughter is never going to accept Lucian because she doesn't like him. But now, she doesn't look like she hates him anymore. He dosent want to know what Lucian is doing to soften her towards him. "She is still young" he said instead. Lola smiled at him softly. "She might look younger to you, but she is an adult now. She can take her own de
Faiya noticed Lucian coming closer. She panicked and fled from the ballroom where the party is being hosted. Lucian smirked and closely followed after her.Faiya ran out of the ballroom and out towards the courtyard. She knows he will find her if she runs into her bed-chamber. Lucian is very talented. He has the talent to unlock any lock in seconds. Once she made the mistake of hiding in her bed-chamber. But he unlocked the door and walked in, effectively trapping her. She ran into a dark corner and hid behind a tree with thick branches. She hid there for a few minutes. When she didn't hear any approaching footsteps, she peeked from behind the tree and came face to face with her tormentor.She gasped with shock when she saw him standing right in front of her. With each deep intake of her breath, her breasts are touching his hard chest.She tried to move away from him, but he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her beck into him, leaving little to no space between their bodies
Epilogue 1, Sneak peak FIFTEEN YEARS later.. Today little Faiya turned 18. Lucas and Lola arranged a big party for her. Faiya is innocent. Lucas is too protective of his daughter. The little physical training she received is because of her mother's insistence. 'She doesn't need to train so hard' This is what Lucas always complains about whenever he finds his daughter training. 'She has to ' This is how Lola replies. Even though Lucas never liked it, he couldn't say no to his wife. Thus Faiya is trained in the art of fighting with weapons. But that's where it began and it ended. Lucas sheltered her and never let her see the bad and worst around the world. Faiya always looks at the world optimistically. She tries to see only the good in people. Even though she is pampered, she is not spoiled. She respects everyone, no matter their status. But as much as she is pampered, the same cannot be said for her little brother who is three years younger than her. Lucas forced him to trai
Lola giggled at his comment.Ares sat beside her. His body is weak and he is sure he will not live to see the sunrise the next morning. So he came to spend some time with his son and daughter-in-law. "A few years ago, all types of women used to flirt with me and I used to get annoyed by their behavior. It's not like I will ever miss those days, it was like a nightmare. It was quite difficult to navigate at a party or a gathering without being flirted with and surrounded by women. None of them wanted to have a meaningful conversation with me. It was so tiring" he shared with a wince when he remembered those days.Lola giggled at his experience. "Must be hard" she commented.Ares chuckled when he remembered how he had to hide in the bathroom just to get rid of a clingy woman at a party."You have no idea" he agreed.They shared a laugh at his expense, before becoming quiet."You are sad" he pointed out what he noticed earlier.Lola looked at her open palms with a dull face."I will m
In the human world, Lola met Nyra and Bella for the first time. The three of them became fast friends soon after. Drake, Blaze, and Lucas were chatting with Ares and Michael. Lucifer joined them as well. Faiysha is happy that everything she planned for the fairy world is fulfilled. All the three protectors accepted their responsibilities happily and she doesn't have to worry about anyone or anything. She can leave this life and start a new one with full of hope and lots of love."What are you thinking?" Ares asked Fayisha.She diverted her gaze away from her children and gave her full attention to the man whom she loves with all her heart."They all are happy" she pointed out.Ares looked at the people whom his wife loves like her own children. All six of them are laughing and joking with each other. They look happy and carefree. No one would think that they are the powerful rulers of the fairy world. They look like normal people, not the kings and queens that they are."That I can se
After taking care of Lucifer, Lucas came back to the corridor where Belial is. Once pristine corridor is now filled with blood, gore and bodies. Dillon, Valmore and Baron are fighting against Belial. But even being singled out, Belial is effortlessly fighting the three of them off. The three of them are injured, but none of them refused to retreat. They kept fighting, even though their bodies are begging them to stop.Lucas walked closer, which Belial and the others noticed. Belial tried to run away, but Dillon remembered what his brother-in-law wanted him to do earlier. So he spilt the oil from the oil lamp beside him in Belial's path, so that he would slip and fall. Just like Lucas thought, Belial didn't notice the oil in his haste to run away. He stepped his foot on the oil and fell down. Dillon, Valmore and Baron moved aside, giving space for Lucas to take care of Belial. When Belial saw that Lucas is standing right in front of him, he picked up his sword which slipped from his
They say we don't understand the real value of anyone or anything until we lose it. Lucifer is now regretting everything he did which led to his fall."Are you not satisfied yet Belial? You fed me nonsense and I believed it. As a result, I was disappointed in his grace and fell from the sky. What are you trying to do? We had everything back then. But you made me push everything away. Now, after so many years, you are trying to kill me? I always believed you and trusted you. But you played with my trust. Why? What do you want?" Lucifer asked with anger, as the foul taste of Belial's betrayal is making him feel nostalgic.Belial snorted mockingly."Power, I wanted power. You are powerful yet so humble. I wanted to become a god as well. But I was never given a chance to become one. Faiysha was younger than us. But yet she was given a chance and was blessed to become a goddess. Now, look at what happened. That silly woman fell in love with Ares and ruined his life as well. He was so power
Belial pulled Lucifer out of his chamber, while his eyes constantly monitoring his surroundings. He is not so shocked to see the demon guards materializing from the shadows in the once empty corridors. Now the palace is not empty. Every single corridor is filled with warriors who are ready to kill Belial at any given moment. The quiet surrounds are now filled with tension so thick, that it could be sliced with a knife.Belial is tense as well. He never thought he would be tricked like this. He knows no one would dare to hurt him as long as he has his saber aimed around Lucifer's neck. He is outnumbered. If not for Lucas and Lucifer, he can easily take care of these warriors. But Lucas is more powerful than Belial and it's impossible to win him in a one-on-one fight against him.Lucas is quietly following Belial and is waiting for an opportunity to strike. He saw how red Lucifer turned as soon as the holy water touched him. He can see that his father-in-law is in so much pain. Lucas no
