“So it's true what they said, you truly are unable to return to your human form,” Lilian jumped to Max’s side, grabbing hold of his arm, though the man remained perfectly still like a statue.
He didn’t want to make idle chit-chat knowing what it meant for her to be there. Max could feel the veins on the side of his head beginning to throb, making him feel like his head was being hit by a large mallet. The woman did not pay any attention, continuing to play her fingers on his chest, even though his face was already crumpling and he was letting out soft growls of protest.Finally having enough Max pulled his arms away before giving the woman a sharp stare. “You say she has put a curse on me, so tell me now, what kind of magic is it exactly?” he grumbles, face still showing those hard lines.Lilian’s brow rises after being pushed back but like always she just laughs it off, unfazed by the act. “I don“Are you truly going to let the whole empire fall like that, my lord? are you truly willing to sacrifice your forefather's pride, your life, your kind just to satisfy your whim? Your vices. Your infatuation?” She says with a deep, almost whimpering voice. Max felt his chest tighten, though something was shouting behind his head to not listen, he can’t deny the fact that what the woman was saying made sense to him. “No,” he grumbled, gritting his teeth upon knowing what that meant. Lilian once again proceeded to slither like a snake towards the man, this time, she was able to sit on his lap, allowing her to wrap her hands on his neck. Max let out a pained grumble as the woman began grinding herself on his hardness. It was starting to cause unwanted carnal sensations all over his body that his mind was starting to give in. “Then fulfill your duty as the draconian prince. Show us your mettle and prove to us that you will not fail, oh
There was a loud commotion when Karilaya opened her eyes again, she was now starting to feel her blood slowly freezing in her veins, causing her whole body to feel a prickling numbness. She ended up whimpering when she tried to move, she almost cried out when she felt the sting on her leg but was unable to do so because she felt the ache in her throat when she tried to make a sound.Soldiers marched back and forth carrying wood, pulling ropes, grunting as they raised the covering red tent along with its poles. Wizards surrounded a huge totem that was tied up to a wagon, chanting as they raised their hands to it. The pole began to emanate a blue glow before letting out a blast that covered their surroundings in a bluish light.It created a ringing sound for a while before the cold strong winds and the drops of water had finally stopped. Outside the bluish light, the rain continued to pour, which only meant that the forcefield was able to keep the elements ou
“I am here, my lady,” the voice called out.It was only then that she was finally able to turn her head to the shadow that hid behind where she was. The large figure was already trying to crouch up unto the wagon though he seemed almost shaking with each movement.“Are you all right?” He asks while pushing a round-looking container on the bottom of the cage in one of its larger openings.Without hesitation Karilaya reached for it, quickly pulling the cork that sealed it and putting it onto her lips, the taste of water touching her lips, cleansing her mouth, and running down her throat felt so revitalizing that she was almost shivering. She could not help but smile at the old crumpled face that was looking at her.“Apologies, this is all that I can bring you, they seem to be so wary of you that they suddenly forget common courtesy towards people,” he scoffs as he slid a loaf of bread into her cage
Though her leg felt numb and her vision was already blurring along with the feeling that her world was turning, Karilaya still had a wide smile on her face after a whole night of restlessness. During the morning when the line of women had finally subsided and the sun had finally given its grace to show itself, the person inside the carriage that was making all the ruckus finally emerged. Stepping out to basque into the clear view of the morning light. His wings spreading as he took in the cool breeze of the morning air, looking all high and mighty like before, gazing at the now quiet camp. Seeing that it was not her captain inside brought joy and relief to her heavy heart, finally giving her some sense of peace. The Black knights were quick to surround their prince as he began moving towards the other carriage’s, he was only halted when he was about to take a peek at the one that was plated with full metal, as several of the wizards and soldiers b
“Max!” she screamed. That soft vibrating voice made him open his eyes in an instant, panting from a dream he felt was so real. He was trying to grab hold of his lady but then all of a sudden she kept being pulled away. Cold sweat ran down his spine when he felt several hands wrapped around him, it was only then that he had remembered what had happened. He grumbled suddenly feeling the sticky wetness covering all over his body, from the holds of several women who were still grabbing a hold of him, his face wrinkling at the stench of their mixed scent that has turned sour and was now reeking all over
Max could feel the rush of his blood coursing through his veins each time his claws would slide through the flesh of each enemy. His laughter echoed all over the forest, finally being able to let out his inner beast, the adrenaline rushing inside him with every hit and bite that he would receive. Even with their numbers and huge sizes, the creatures fell on his hands one by one, unable to best the prince’s monstrous power and strength.A pile of bodies was already piled up when the battle had ended and somehow that managed to quenched his uncontrolled rage that had been brewing since the moment he woke up.“Your highness,” commander Tycus already had a cloth for him when he approached.“Commander, tell me, where are they hiding, my lady?” The way Alexander wiped the blood off his claws in front of the commander, made the man turn pale.Commander Tycus swallowed hard. “You mean the priestess, my l
Karilaya could not hide the smile on her face, there was not a single mark that was left on her leg after performing the spell she thought of. The shackles that were stopping her from using magic seemed unable to comprehend that little trick she has thought of. She was so proud of that deed she had managed to do that she didn’t mind being in the dark crevices of that dungeon.Healed and in a very good mood all the princess could do right now was patiently wait until Max would come and get her out, she knew the man wouldn’t leave her in that place and it was only a matter of time before she would be able to see him again, getting strength by holding on to that hope.She let out a deep sigh, looking at that faint glow from the candle, it reminded her of the days when she and Max would stay just lying in their makeshift bed, looking outside and not doing anything. Those memories were whats keeping her sane right now, knowing that the man would rescue her i
Alexander felt the sudden rush on his skin, feeling the sudden surge of danger around him. He woke up in a cold sweat, breathing heavily as he almost jumped out of his bed. The women that were embracing him woke up with tired pouting eyes as they looked at him.“Good morning, prince.” One of them giggled as she tried to once again embrace him.Yet this time he felt some kind of shiver in his spine making him crawl away from them, his eyes kept wondering on the ceiling the floor having this sense that something was looking at him.“What’s wrong, my lord?” Another woman asks, copying him but ended up frowning.“Would you like us to call mistress Lilian so that we may proceed with our morning activity?” One of them said, her hands pressing his shoulder along with her breast that seem to be brushing on his back.Six women had slept with him that nigh
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.
