The few remaining forces they had surrounded them. Guarding them while they were having dinner.
“I want to see ma,” Cicero whined as he crossed his arms.
Not daring to touch the food that was served in front of him. Not wanting anything that wasn’t prepared by their mother.
“This isn’t ma’s cooking!” Metikulo groaned when he took a bite of the food.
It tasted so bland and raw that it made him almost spit out the meat. It lacked that essential taste that had always been with their mother’s cooking.
“My lords, we have little to spare right now. And the cooks can’t do much since the spices and herbs haven’t arrived from the neighboring village,” Kirei gave her sweetest smile to calm the triplets.
All three boys gave each other meaningful glances. Ever since they w

“Has she woken up yet?” Alexander asked.All three advisers looked at each other. Not knowing what to say at the moment. They didn’t want to incur their liege’s wrath, especially since his temperament was getting harder to gauge lately.“I think lady Kaya just wants a bit more rest, your majesty.” Lord Slog was the one who answered.He knew that the emperor’s patience has been thin lately. And he didn’t want to experience another tantrum from their liege.Alexander took a deep breath, throwing a weakened gaze at lady Kaya, who was still lying asleep on the bed.“Leave us,” He waves them out.Deciding not to prolong his agony, Alexander laid beside her, taking the woman into his arms to pull her closer into a warm embrace.Catching the slight whiff of her sweet, floral scent insta

“Who are these people and why are they so strong?” Cicero was panting as he took on one soldier after the other.“Stop complaining and beat them already,” Giro grumbled as he too was having a hard time taking on two black knights at the same time.They didn’t want to go all out yet, knowing that the Dragon man may appear at any moment.“There he is!” Metikulo caught sight of the man walking away.The other two boys quickly look where their brothers’ eyes were at. It didn’t take that long before they also found the person they were all looking for.“Get him!” Giro shouted before kicking away the two men who were holding him.All three rush in chase of their mark, like wild animals seeking their prey. Their eyes showed an instinctive hunger that made all the black knights back away.

Karilaya could no longer ignore the noise that was coming outside. She knew only three people who had the bravery and naivety to attack an enemy camp like that, not to mention the familiar and strong surge of energy that floated through the air.She slowly touched the jaded restraints that were attached to her. Trying to get an idea of how they worked. It resembled the old magical cuffs that were used on her by the witches before. She could still feel her anger and hate remembering it. The only difference with these things that she was wearing now is that it didn’t have the spike, nor did it give out a shock whenever she would try to cast a spell. Instead, it would only nullify it and absorb the magic that was being accumulated.Hearing the increasing noise coming from outside. Karilaya picks up the first thing that she sees’s on her side.Holding tight to the candleholder, she walks straight out, on

Alexander didn’t think that breaking his lady’s will was going to be this easy. Which only made him see that there might be something special about their captive that would cause the woman to be this concerned about them.He looked to his men, who were about to take the boys away. Signaling the soldiers to bring their prisoners closer. Kaya turned pale when the knights began moving towards them. He could feel that she was afraid. That piqued his interest and ignited a certain feeling of jealousy in him. His senses kept shouting at him to do act immediately.Alexander wanted to find out what was the reason behind Kaya’s action. Though he understood how the princess cared for her people, there was something different in the way she acted.“Your majesty,” Lord Drake speaks to get their attention.He could still not remove his gaze away from his lady,

Karilaya could not hold her tears when Alexander finally turned to look at her. His eyes still had this crazed look, like he had lost his mind. That left her speechless, not knowing what else she could say just to stop that madness.“My lady, that is quite the revelation. But are you aware that there is a way for us to know if the child is truly a pure-blooded Draconian or not? There’s an Imperial ritual that we could now to confirm the boy’s bloodline! You’d be quite amazed at how easy it is to spot a lie and a fake.” Alexander’s teeth were clenching as he spoke.“What do you mean?” Karilaya’s heart sank the moment he saw doubt in his eyes. It seemed his rage blinded the man that he would not even listen to what she had to say.“Uncle,” Alexander turned to the silver knight who held Cicero’s chains.&ldquo

“Can you believe this, uncle! There’s three of them.” Alexander could not hide his joy as he looks at all of his children.Even just the mention of the word son was enough to send him to bliss. Sending troves of ecstasy in his mind, knowing that he and his lady had produced such strong offsprings. Also, was that there were actually three of them at once.Lord Drake had this wide grin on his face while nodding. “I can see that, your majesty,” he chuckles, watching his men struggle with keeping the three at bay.The man could not hide his own sense of pride, seeing that his nephew was quite happy. Finally fulfilled for bearing three healthy boys. The only thing that they had to worry about now was which one was going to inherit the throne.“Have you ever heard of such a thing?” Alexander let out another laugh as he looks at his uncle in disbelief.

Karilaya kept looking outside the window of the carriage. She could not help but worry about her son, remembering how much pain they were in. If only she could use her magic, she would have never left them. But since it’s taking her a bit more time to discover the secret of the new restraints that she was wearing, all she could do now was play along with the advisers’ wishes.She was with three of the emperor’s aides, mainly Lord Slog who sat in front of him, keeping his smile, the Headmaster Artheous Lore who seems to be asleep, and the Grand witch Mistress Moryana Fray who was quietly sitting beside her, like a maid-servant.“You do not have to worry, my lady. The emperor will not let any harm come to the boys,” the woman implied when she noticed how Karilaya was looking at everyone.“It’s best if you do not think too much about them, m’lady. All should be well after they

The moment the last maid-servant walked out the door, Karilaya immediately started rummaging through the room. As if fate had intervened. They sent the princess to her father's old chambers. The place that they’ve been wanting to go into for such a long time. She breathes a sigh of relief, thankful for the luck that was given upon her.Though the empire redecorated the whole bedroom, they touched nothing much on its architecture. It still had the same stone, floorings, and woodworks.Remembering her chat with her priestess’s she began searching on the side of the walls. Near the top of the bed for a loose brick.The princess smiled. When after just a few moments, she had struck an uneven, shaky part of it. Though it would seem that it could fall off, it did not easily come out. After inspecting it, she discovered the sigil that was told to her, with a bit more tinkering, and she finally found the others.

As Karilaya proved she could handle basic politics and affairs of the land, she gained the head advisers, along with the magical council’s favor, being dubbed as the true empress of the Draconian Empire.And they state it in the imperial rule. She took over all of Alexander’s duties, allowing the man to focus on raising their sons.The man taught the boys everything he knew, from combat, control their forms, and learning the ways of their kind.A year more had passed, and they were finally ready to proceed with her coronation.Having healed from all of their wounds, Karilaya finally agreed to marry the emperor, which puts them in their current situation.With the land no longer tormented by the changing weather, the people at peace, and the kingdom once again flourishing. It was now time to go to the western lands to have her crowned and legitimatized as the sole wife of t

The people felt a bit more at ease with the empire; they no longer had any qualms, especially after everybody found out that their princess was now the empress and would still be the one to rule them.She lowered the taxes enough for all of them to get by, not just for their area but also for the entire western continent that was under them, so that it wouldn’t cause too much strain on everyone.Trading between the west and their lands went on smoothly, allowing more products to come back and forth.“Good morning your majesty!”People greeted as they walk pass by them. Karilaya waved at them in reply. She and the others were currently viewing the restoration of the old kingdoms’ fields.After they had cleared the trees, the earth was now being plowed to prepare it for farming. Everyone was helping, including a few of th

Having control over all the things in the kingdom, it didn’t take long before Karilaya had finally turned matters around.Repairs on the capital were going smoothly. All the previous actions she wanted to be done, like the re-aligning of the seals within the entire city, were no longer an issue, since fear of using her magic did not restrain her.It was the reason she now felt it was the right time to proceed with restoring their lands to how it was.“Your majesty, are you sure it will be safe to remove the coven from their bonds this instant?” the old adviser asks.The man was with her, together with her own guards, since she sent the others to handle things around the kingdom for this momentous day.“Yes, mistress Moryana and the headmaster are already in place. I stationed Kirei and everyone else in each village outside to make su

In just two days, that was all it took for the combined might of the imperial army and Aselaysian soldiers to rally up every single person who Soraya has pointed out to be instigating a rebellion into their hands.Facing them now was lord Sander Lee. Face broken, bloody, and full of tears. The man was groveling in front of Karilaya, who was on the throne beside the Draconian emperor.She moves to her side in order to get closer to the Alexander. “Did you beat them to death?” she whispers to him.Seeing how beaten and wounded the old lords were, she could not help but feel a bit of remorse for letting the man handle things.“No,” he shrugs.“Then why do they look like that?” she points out.Lord Sander Lee’s face was so inflated that he was unrecognizable, while some could no longer keep themselv

“Why do you doubt him?” It was the childish little voice that whispered in her mind.She was currently contemplating with the Horomid all the while looking out into the palace’s terrace. She wanted to get at least an insight from her guardian spirits about what to do, knowing that somehow they may clear her thoughts.“Because he has lied to me before. And I am afraid that all of this is but another farce,” she says.Feeling that ache inside her chest, still fearing that the man might betray her again.“Did you also not deceive him?” the sweet female voice whispered.Karilaya could not help but grumble. “I did that to protect myself.”“What makes your mistake more forgivable than his? A lie is a lie no matter how you make it,” the annoying spirit mocked, letting out a laugh after.

After finally having time for themselves, all Alexander would do was to cuddle and hug her. The man clung to her the moment they got returned to their room. Cooing and giving her kisses on the neck.“Your Majesty, you need to rest,” she scolds. Feeling his hands wandering all over her body.They were already in bed, getting ready to sleep after tucking the boys into their rooms. Her back was facing him, so he was spooning her while they laid on there.“I have plenty of strength reserved just for you,” Alexander cooed in her ears.She felt herself shiver, sensing that ticklish jolt inside of her. His hands were already touching those sensual areas of her. Playfully rubbing his fingers on her skin.“Alex!” she hissed, slapping off his hand, feeling him pinching some of her sensitive parts.“Come on, Kaya. I promise I wo

They caught Lord Drake by surprise upon their arrival. Making his uncle gape in disbelief at seeing her lady with him at that moment. He kept looking at him with questioning looks, asking for why he’d let the woman be there.“Your majesty, I do not think this is safe,” He says.Alexander almost laughed, cause he knew that his beloved was very much capable of handling herself in there, having removed her restraints and all.“Uncle, have you not met her yet? Or have you forgotten the mother of my children?” He smirks at the man, trying to give him the idea of who he was with.But before lord Drake could even recognize his lady, Kaya had already done a curtsy in front of him.“It’s a pleasure to meet you, lord Galford Drake. I have to commend that your men are quite the formidable opponents on the battlefield that even I wasn’t able to

Tired, wounded, and starving, Alexander still kept watch over his sons. He could tell by their breathing that all of them were still awake. Resting, planning, and waiting for the right time to strike.“Your majesty, it would be best if you take this time to rest up.” Lord Drake says.His uncle had finished tying up Giro. After he had broken free a while ago. It’s the second time within the day which was making him frustrated. He never thought it would be that hard to keep the boys in check with his power, but seeing as he couldn’t go all out on his children for fear of harming them just made it more difficult.“I’m good, uncle.”He took that time to take a rest, sitting on the floor in front of the boy’s cell. Munching on the bread that the servants brought a while ago.Though he wanted to eat meat, the smell of it always ended up w

Soraya kept her senses sharp. Looking around, all the while keeping her gaze on the knights who stood guarding them. She could not understand why they were suddenly being taken care of like that.They healed their wounds, gave back their weapons and armor. They even fed them to where they were all satisfied.They also mixed the captive villagers with their soldiers, making them look like a bunch of cattle being herded inside the outer castle.She knew that all of it had to have a reason and it was not just for show nor for their so-called friendly gesture. She’d hardly consider them having any, experiencing how cruel and barbaric they were.There was something behind of it all which she could not put her foot on it.It alerted Soraya seeing the soldiers move in a straight line, posing at the ready when they saw a line of well-dressed people coming their way.
