Andrea stood at the railings, her demonic eyes staring at the distant horizon, narrowing at what she saw, and while the love rabbits were at heat, making everyone on the ship uncomfortable with their loudness, she took the liberty to bring the whole sail into a sudden halt, all the ships stopping for a while until they figure out what to do next.
She wouldn’t have cared if about what was happening on the shore since it didn’t concern her nor her kind, but after receiving an earful from her Lord, who was alive to her utter relief, she didn’t have any choice but to ‘fully and sincerely’ cooperate with their allies, whose king and queen were sweetly fucking in his room.
Not that she cared, Andrea thought, her Lord was t
The girl entered the study like a silent shadow, her graceful steps barely audible even when the study was silent, the room was nowhere near being small but her long and agile legs ate the distance in no time, coming to stand in front of the King and the princess.Henry raised his eyebrow at the girl who, instead of bowing properly, with one of her legs in front of the other, her knees bent, her back arched and her head held low, she only bowed her head, slightly, making her salute to the royals, which was to show respect and humility in front of them, lack the necessary obeisance and courtesy.Nevertheless, he knew he couldn’t consider her act rude or plainly disrespectful, it was somehow neutral, combined with the haughtiness the girl car
"I understand the new friends of the kingdom would accept to help us?!" Henty took a couple of seconds staring at the girl, the impressed smile he was giving her faded away, not because he was any less impressed, but because the girl didn’t show any emotion, giving him the impression that he was talking to a wall and not a living human, the girl’s face was petrified in that expressionless state.The more he looked at her, the strangest he felt, with her voice neutral and her tone calm and even, her question barely sounded like one, even when his eyes were digging holes on her frame, trying to surpass the wall of ice she carried as a part of her, a wall so thick it even made Henry wonder whether there was something behind that wall or if the wall was her being.
Running his hand over his face, Henry sighed tiredly, trying to get rid of the tiredness he was feeling, or at least forget it for extra few hours, but it was of no use, his eyelids were heavy, begging for some rest.After the talk with his sister, Henry had to meet with the Dukes and Counts of his kingdom, including Eren’s eldest brother, the meeting with them turned out to be a total waste of time as the men attending it had nothing to say but to subliminally blame him for the current state of the kingdom, without giving any valuable solutions, some even suggested to give up the usurped lands, which only gained them a sharp glare from him.After the meeting, Henry had to have dinner with his sisters and the nobles who came to greet him, and when it was finally time for him to go to sleep, his eyes remained opened, looking at the ceiling,
The few seconds in the girl’s embrace felt like years of endless torture, with air being forcefully sucked out of her lungs, but it wasn’t just air, Rima told herself as she felt the numbness in her toes and fingertips, she felt as if life was being sucked out of her, very slowly and subtly while the girl whispered her threat, and right when she was about to react, the girl unwrapped her arms and stepped back, her face expressionless as before, not giving away what she just did.With her eyes still on the black-haired girl who retreated to stand by her princess in a subtle but protective way, she didn’t sense the other approaching figure until a hand was placed on her lower back gently, startling her, turning around, she was met with Henry’s concerned gaze.
"I wish I had your powers, just for once" Henry whispered softly to the girl lying on his arm, her eyes were closed but the smile on her face told him that she wasn't asleep, she was just savoring the after taste of their lovemaking, every touch of his on her body felt as if he was removing a small chunk of her tiredness of her body and soul and replacing it with a missing part of her, she felt whole with him and was sure he felt the same, what was once reasons for the beautiful relationship they shared to fail and die in its crib, their differences, their status, and their personalities that almost destroyed each other, became the things that strengthened it."Why is that?" She asked him in her sweetest voice, she didn't mean to sound the way she sounded, but the ecstasy she was feeling turned her voice into the most delicious m
THAGHIT Camp"Your Grace, The main troops of the Manrast army are located thirty miles away from here, they have chosen a small village as their camp, the village is close to the river and has excellent access to the main roads and paths, there are almost eighty thousands men in their army, ten thousands of them are cavalry, five thousand archers while the rest are infantry, their main weapons are swords but they are also known to be good with spears, they have brought enough supplies for the next two months and even secured a safe path to get more from the nearby towns and villages, the magistrates of those towns were given orders to prepare wagons filled with goods and wait for the orders to send them, As for the time of the attack, We don't know yet, they appear to be waiting for something." The young shadow demon informed Henry, taking advantage of the thick forest that bordered the camping village to sneak closer without being notices.
'This is real!'‘It is happening!’‘It is really happening!’Young Ezra heard himself muttering panickily as he ran alongside the rest of the Manrast soldiers to clash with the oblivious Taghit army, and until that particular moment when his trembling legs were carrying him, following the flow of screaming men in armors, he didn’t believe that he was going to fight, kill, or be killed.He was no soldier! He was no killer! And he had nothing to do with this war! This wasn’t his place nor the place he wanted to be, and while he ran almost absentmindedly, his life was flashing in front of his eyes, like those plays he used to see in the capital’s market when he was a child, the ones he was never fortunate enough to attend and watch until the very end, not when he was the son of a poor blacksmith who would spend his every penny on ail, those plays were a luxury l
Prince Ramez wanted so bad to close his eyes, rub them and open them again, so maybe the unbelievable scene he was seeing would change, but he couldn’t, he didn’t even manage to get himself to blink as he watched his forces being wiped down, exterminated.His eyes which were filled with confidence were then filled with terror, he didn’t understand what truly happened, not an hour ago, he was the one with the upper hand, the Taghit king was fleeing away like a dog with his tail between his legs, his armies were scattered all over the camp, his archers were shooting at the Manrast troops aimlessly, but right in the next second, the earth cracked, ice spikes emerged from under the ground, bordering the Taghit front line, demon wolves showed up from the forest and the scattered soldiers aligned themselves into perfect formations, led by non-other than the Yoren lad.Was it a trap all along? Ramez asked himself, was he so carele
