Until now, the only news that she would get from them was that her sons hadn’t calmed down yet. It has been a week since they brought back Karilaya. During the duration of her stay, she took notice of how now and then there would be a march of weary witches. They would come from the town and go back to the palace and vice versa.
Currently outside the palace, she chances upon them while checking some area within the town. Once again, they were moving in droves towards the castle. Some were barely walking, being carried by their friends. Others limp as they move, and some were barely awake but still kept on.
The princess could no longer ignore the entire group. Especially when she saw mistress Moryana assisting on their parade. Guiding them properly so that none would go astray while they trek back to the castle.
She walks in strides to where the grand witch was as curiosity was clawing at her. Wanting to know what i
Silence was all Karilaya gave Alexander as he throws him inside the room. She did not say a word even as he began closing the doors, all the while remaining looking at her with those sharp melting eyes. She swallowed hard, hearing the click of the lock. Taking a deep breath, she threw him the same intensity of look that he was throwing at him, not wanting to back away. Alexander’s slow walk was heavy, that it made the floor creak with each step. He was panting as he approached her. “You see this!” He points to his shoulder. Karilaya gulped when she saw the puncture wound on the man’s side, but remained quiet about it. “I got this from you during that time that you escaped, and this!” He then gestures his hands to the fresh gashes and scratches all over his body. “This was from fending off our children. All because I could not get through to them s
One push of that knife through his chest would end it all. She only needed the strength to do so. But she’d stop whenever she would feel the soft, warm flesh touching the sharp edge of it. Her bones soften, feeling weak just from knowing what happens after that. Her heartbeat faster at the thought of losing him and no longer seeing the man ever again after that.She could not do it. No matter how much her mind shouted, her body would not follow.Alexander took in a deep breath as he closed his eyes, waiting for the inevitable. Karilaya grabs the knife with both hands, but she still kept trembling. Panting, as tears continue to run down her cheeks.A loud scream came out of the princess as she fell to her knees. Unable to do what the man was telling her to. At that moment, she could feel her whole body shaking from the sudden cold that she felt just thinking of killing him. Her heart could not take it and her mind w
Karilaya woke up to butterfly kisses on her forehead, an aching body, warm arms around her, and a very hard thing between her legs.“Good morning, my beloved,” Alexander says. Cooing in her ear as he brushes the hair off her face.The man was spooning her from behind, all the while fondling her breast. She remained quiet, steady, pretending to be asleep. She still could not believe that she gave in to those urges she so long had tried to forget.“Kaya, I know you’re awake. Shall we continue where we left off?” He playfully says to her before giving a slow, tempting thrust inside of her.She grabbed hold of the sheets of the bed, holding down the moan that wanted to escape. Alexander continued his delicious, sensual assault, wanting to hear her answer.The heat inside of her increased with every deep hump that he’d give her. Making it harder to
Staring blankly into nothingness. It still stunned Karilaya when she couldn’t do anything while her sons tried to rip each other off. She didn’t care nor take notice of her she was being taken or what the advisers were so troubled that they kept running back and forth for.It was until mistress Moryana move towards the lady, the only person who seemed to have the bravery to approach her. It was only when the woman was close to her that she was she finally able to realize what was going on around her.“My lady, apologies for my lateness.” She says after moving beside her.It was only then that she had the sense to turn her gaze inside the room.Piles of scrolls, books, and parchments were in front of her. All properly stack in order and colors. All the while, lord Slog, and some other advisers, along with the magic council, stood in face of her. Waiting, chatting, and discussin
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.
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
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
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
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.
