Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Geraldine stared at her surroundings with skeptical eyes, trying to pinpoint the source of the animosity she suddenly felt, it was all around her, like an ominous presence that invaded the place, one which she could only feel but not see.
There was definitely something going on, she thought to herself as she bent down to touch the dewy ground of the forest, trying to detect what was different and a malicious suffocating weight slowly settled on her chest.
The dark forest was more than just an exile for the shadow demons, for they had not only made a home out of it, but also formed a tie with it, the forest was their strength and every single shadow demon had a connection with it, and it was through that connection that the shadow demons possessed the ability to reach out to one another, and to the forest.
And the forest was suffering, Geraldine stood up as worry crept into her mind, she sniffed the air, hoping her nose would be more useful than her eyes, focusin

Despite barely having the strength to walk, Eren kept on running, not stopping, not looking back, just running away from the borders, away from her.The sight of her blaming eyes was forever engraved in his memory, the amount of pain and betrayal they carried only made him run faster, telling himself he was a curse, that she would indeed be better off without him.Will she? His steps came to a sudden halt, a terrible fear settling in his heart with that thought, the fear of something happening to her while he wasn’t around to protect her!Taking a step back, Eren contemplated the idea of running back to her, to har scent, to her face, to her lips and their divine taste, but the memory of her blaming eyes stopped him again.Her eyes were lethal indeed, but there was something else, the great war! He was going to war and couldn’t take her with him, the shadows’ empire wasn’t safe for her and he didn’t have anyone that he truste

“This is going to be harder than I thought!” Rima knitted her eyebrows while looking out the window of what used to be the Tahat magistrate’s house.As expected, the familiarity she built with the human king wasn’t contagious, the united armies were only united in name, whereas in reality, the humans and demons did anything but blend, the schism in their lines was far too obvious to be neglected, none of them tolerated the other’s presence, the animosity was palpable in the air, and there were many, many skirmishes, some even turned violent.“It is perfectly understandable!”“We will make it work!”Eren and Henry said in the same time before exchanging a small glare, making the ice queen mentally slap her face, for even these two couldn’t fully tolerate each other, but unlike their soldiers, the human king and the shadows lord’s enmity wasn’t just because of their different kinds, it

Summoning her magical ice swords, Rima swung them at the small monsters that charged at her, not having a second to waste as the creatures jumped from under the water with their maws agape, their sharp teeth bare and threatening, ready to tear up any and everything that fell between their jaws.Standing at the front of the boat wither icy blades, Rima moves them in agile but strong and precise swings, decapitating one creature after the other, trying to take as many as she could herself for she knew the others were not even half her strength, it was up to her to protect everyone in her group, but the task was not an easy one for there were thousands of the creatures attacking from each sideTheir numbers and ferocity wasn’t the only thing she had to worry about, Rima thought with worried while kicking the remains of the creatures out of the boat to getting rid of the excessive weight, there was also the fact that the creatures didn&rsq

The far shore was far indeed...Rima stared at the horizon with tired eyes, focusing on what looked like a shore, golden sands, the exhaustion she was feeling didn’t help one bit, nor was the fact that she didn’t feed in the last two days since they escaped the hellish circle after offering the humans as scapegoats to the sea monsters.One of the demons died of thirst, and the rest were going to face the same fate soon, including herself even though she was stronger and more resistant than the average demons.her lips dry and cracked, her eyelids were heavy just like the rest of her body, her throat was burning, itching for few drops of warm blood, she hated to admit it but she was willing to even drink the animals’ blood which wasn’t just disgusting but also degrading.it was still very tempting at that moment, Rima thought while paddling towards the far shore, wonderin
The Princess And The Demon Chapter Fifty Five: Not The Time For Enmity
Eren followed Henry with bored eyes as the later paced the room back and forth, worry written all over his form, and even though the shadows' lord was worried as well, the human king was on a whole other level.His heart was about to burst out, and his brain was about to explode out of his skull with all the thoughts and possibilities running all at once inside his head.They were supposed to hear from the scouting group three days ago, according to his calculations, the forbidden sea was rather a narrow one, and the sail wasn’t supposed to take more than a day, but it has been four days already and they didn’t get any news.Not only his two best friends, the ones he grew up with and loved as brothers, were on that sail, but the woman who was slowly nestling herself in his heart.The thought of her warm smile and her simple yet alluring beauty warmed his heart for a fleeting second, she l

“What do you mean?” Both the shadows’ lord and the human king asked worriedly, not missing the desperation in the ice queen’s voice which quivered with every word as if it was draining her.For someone as powerful and strong-willed as her to sound not only that desperate but also weak and exhausted was more than alarming to both the men in the room staring at the black book with worried eyes.“Did something happen during the sail? Where are you now?” Henry asked with urgently, his heart clenching with fear and anticipation.“Weren’t you able to reach the center?” Eren asked, his voice more composed than the other two, even though he was equally worried, only that his worry was mostly on the mission, and not the soldiers, including himself.“We did make it to the center, but most of the group died on the way, I am so sorry!” Rima&

Ripping her eyes from the tranquil scene of the forest being illuminated by the first rays of the sun, the scene was breathtaking but just like every day, she could help but find nothing rather than disappointment in it...Dawn was supposed to bring light, warmth, hope...but it wasn't bringing her any, nor was it bringing her sister back to her."Please tell me you haven't been awake all night!" Narrowing his eyes worriedly, Henry strode inside the room to reach the patio where his sister was standing, a sad look on her face nullifying the smile she tried to wear for his sake."I was just...a little anxious about today." Frowning at his sister's tired voice, Henry couldn't help but worry about his sister and her wellbeing during the upcoming journey she had insisted on taking..."You don't have to go, Nara, it doesn't have to be you, we can always send someone else..."

"Because, this is my destiny, I am a Goddess and I was destined for greatness, now I realize it, You, on the other hand, you are only dirtying this place with your presence!" once the words left her mouth, Sara regretted saying them, hurting the man she loved deliberately and watching the effect her words had on him was equally devastating to her, her heart was breaking simultaneously with his, echoing in the silent room, visible on the tense postures...They say actions speak louder than words but Sara knew that no punch was going to cause worse damage than the words she was spitting bluntly, no attack would have wounded him that deep enough to through him in a state of complete stillness, His eyes cast downward, his breathes coming out deep and calm, his shadows retreating to gather around his feet.Did she really do it? Break his heart enough for him to finally give up on her? Sara thought as she watched him thoroughly, her eyes desperate to make contact with his, unabl
The Princess And The Demon Not In A Million Years
"Don't!" Emerging from the shadows right before his fair lady's hand touched the filthier one of the man whom he considered as a father, Eren pulled her to his bare chest callously before wrapping his arms around her with no finness nor consideration to her trembling state, in fact, he was so angry at her he wanted to keep squeezing until he broke all her bones, every last one until she was no longer able to move or walk away from him in order to commit her heroic idiocies such as joining the Gods in their suicidal mission for the sake of the greater good.After his encounter with Historia's ghost, or whatever the thing he saw in the bottom of the river was, Eren wasted no time before flying to the center, cursing himself all the way for not thinking about it earlier, of course she would be in the center, it was the only place in their world where he didn't have eyes and ears in, the place where the dark energy was the weakest, it explained how he couldn't sense her presence
The Princess And The Demon Moonless Nights
"What in the world is this none sense?" Squinting his eyes, Eren stated at the red headed princess, his mind refusing to comprehend the absolute absurdity that came out of her mind...When Andrea dared to once again bother him in his solitary where he mourned his broken heart, he was about to kill her but the words that came out of her mouth managed to save her life in the last second, for she had announced that his fair lady has finally been seen, and it was by none other than the redheaded princess who asked to meet him...Meeting the useless princess could wait, Eren first told himself as he searched the perimeter of the castle, looking for any traces of his fair lady, but he found nothing, not even her delicious scent which he craved like his next breath.She had hid her traces, that was Eren's first guess, but after hearing what the redheaded princess had to say, he started to think that his fair lady never showed up in the first place..."You can ha

"The once one shall be one, it must, it is the only way for this frail world to survive the death surrounding it, if not, darkness shall swallow it, the sun shall never rise again, and cold will seap through the fabric of life, cutting off the bonds, chasing away the warmth, children shall die in their mothers wombs, love bonds shall be severed, and the sun shall never rise once again nor shall the moon and stars shine, there will be nothing left of this world unless we save it...""What are you mumbling about?" Sara questioned warily, her heart still in the bedroom were she left an angry Eren who was probably raising hell just to find her, a sting of regret erupted inside of her but she quickly pushed it aside to focus on what the three silvered hair men were saying…It felt like being trapped into that horrible nightmare once again, when the Gods tried to absorb her powers, they looked no different from what they did back then, long white robes, long silver locks,
The Princess And The Demon Despair
Stay away from me...Why? Eren asked himself for the millionth time, and was still unable to find an answer for it, everything was so perfect and then, out of the blue, his fair lady was acting as if his mere proximity was stabbing her right in the heart...Stay away from me...Those foor words, they were not spoken with hatred nor disdain, if anything, Sara seemed shaken, broken, and sad beyond words, her eyes held despair and pain, one that ran deeper than his understanding, one that cut his breath the moment he saw it, and he knew, even without her admitting it, that he was the source of that pain, and the thought of not knowing why was making him madder each second...But that wasn't all, Eren thought as he jugged his glass of alcoholic blood, for he had seen something else in her beautiful eyes, something he was so familiar with, anger at the world, it felt like her eyes were cursing anything that ever existed for some reason…What reason?

"Is he among them?" Seeing the sorrow behind the wariness and rage that filled Eren's eyes, Sara couldn't help but lower her eyes apologetically before nodding, Zaman was with Kalan and the other God indeeed, and the three of them were right outside the castle in the outskirts of the king's forest, their auras were sensible and clear for her but not to Eren, which only meant that they were waiting for her for some reason without wanting to alarm the demons.The question was, why?What did they want?"I don't know about Ebdi, and Jo..I mean Zaman's intentions are still not clear, but if Kalan is here, I can only think of trouble, I shall call for backup..." Eren said as he buttoned his shirt hurriedly before walking towards the door, hoping that his fair lady would agree to stay in the castle until he figures out what the God's Intentions were, but a single look at her determined face made him more certain of how futile it was to ask."If they wanted to attack the

How could one be so happy? How could one freeze a moment of happiness and imprisone themselves within it? Give up what was left of life with all the ups and downs and unknown futures just to keep on living one moment, over and over again?Smiling shyly, Rima placed her hand in Henry's without taking her eyes of his, it was all happening, and a part of her was still unable to believe it, she couldn't believe that after everything they went through they still survived to witness that day, the day of their union, not just as lovers, but as two leaders bringing together rivalry nations that didn't know of peace and harmony until lately, that alone was an impossible dream with a bloody history behind it to prevent it from becoming real, yet it was happening, it was a reality, a beautiful, almost unbelievable reality, just like the feeling of his hand in hers.Throughout her life, Rima learned the hard way that happiness was but a short incomplete phase, it was never there t
The Princess And The Demon Selfish Bastard
“A little of red on the lips would look great on you my lady, and it would suit your dress!” the demoness said enthusiastically, absorbed on finishing the last touches on Sara’s look, all while being oblivious of the mixed thoughts and feelings the young Goddess was having.“The lord isn’t back yet?” resisting the urge to sigh at the question that was asked several times already, the demoness put on a polite smile as she answered truthfully, “Not yet my lady, but I am sure he will be here soon.”You sure aren’t you, Sara asked in her heart while looking at her reflection, the demoness did a decent job at making her look presentable for the royal wedding which was happening that night, her hair was brushed neatly to frame her face, the fringe falling strategically on her face to cover the fading scars and then a small tiara was placed on top of it, the red rubies sat on a black base matched her dress, and the red col
