The wind was rampaging outside, it gave a foreboding whistle to whoever would dare to go outside like death, taunting them. There was not an inch of water but the gale outside was able to make hollowed tree trunks flew by like they weighed nothing. Tornadoes could be seen reaching the skies, connecting the earth to it.

Karilaya swallowed hard as she watched from inside the cave, the inner earth was deep enough to protect them and the hill that they were in had huge stone formations that seem to keep everything in place, making it seem like a fortress from the wildness of the outside.

She looked at the flames that were starting to die out, eating away at the last piece of wood that she salvaged a while ago as it managed to get thrown inside the cave.

Clasping onto the captains' cape she could not help but keep his eyes on the entrance of the cave, biting her lips when every now and then the biting coldness would sweep inside the place, causing her whole

    There was this amazing mouth-watering waft that cause Maxwell's senses, his eyes immediately opened catching the scent of a very meaty yet earthy taste within the air. His eyes quickly looked around seeing the sudden brightness within the whole place, making him jolt up. Without so much as flinching his hands were already grabbing hold of his sword as he stood up, grabbing on the hilt of it he was ready to unsheathe it when he stood up, yet immediately stopped when he noticed that he was still in the cave.His forehead wrinkled when he finally saw the sudden changes within the place, he was now thinking if he had been sent to another place or was it some kind of illusion to make the place look good.The cave didn’t look like a cave anymore, it resembled more an area within a commoner’s home. There were furnishing within the wall and in the middle of the place, such as tables and counters, the floor was no longer earthy and swerving.

    The whirlwinds that were devastating the land were now replaced by what seemed like a depiction of the underworld, having a red ashen mist surrounding the whole place, nothing could be seen as it covered everything.Karilaya had created a barrier that blocked the whole thing from entering the cave. Though there was nothing that could be seen outside, she still remained in the opening of the den looking afar as she didn’t really feel like staying beside the captain.There was this pang inside her chest that kept nagging at her for not telling the man the reason for it all at the same time there was also a part of her that kept scolding her for the mistake and telling her that the man was only looking out for her.Though she had managed to smile a while ago she could still feel something wrong within the man, having remained quiet for the duration of their whole dinner.“My lady?” The captain’s

    ‘We will find out in time’ those words kept repeating inside Karilaya’s mind and though the captain did not answer, she knew the man didn’t agree with her. Though the captain did not say it out loud, she could feel it as the subject was never brought up, even within the days that came.She knew she had made a mistake bringing up the thought of staying there. As the moment the captain saw the clear skies he suggested they move forward and continue to proceed of finding a way out to escape that place.That was why she remained silent as they began traversing the land, they moved through the thick and lush forest in haste.They took the chance to move as the weird weather had suddenly subsided, having a normal sunny that covered almost the entire land.They’ve been walking for quite some time now yet there hasn’t been a change in the skies which was quite odd for the storm lands.Karilaya staye

    A towering purple mist was already surrounding him, making it hard to see what was in front or behind him and it also felt like his eyes were burning from it. It was also getting harder to breathe as he could feel the smoke stinging every part of his chest. If he was not draconian, he was sure he’d be dead by now from all the poison that was inside him.He gripped his sword firmly since it was already covered in a mix of red and green sludge making it harder for him to cut. He never thought that scouting within these grounds would bring him pleasure, making his blood rush since almost all of the monsters were quite formidable, even the small, innocent-looking ones. A blessing that seems to have come at the right time.As of now the nest that he was in was the last dangerous place within that area, if it gets cleared out they would be able to sleep well tonight, needing only to worry about the changing weather.A lo

    “Max! No, stay with me.” Karilaya tried shaking the man to wake him up but ended up falling on the water with him when his body finally gave in. The man was already in a deep state of sleep, his body began to turn cold, and his color started turning pale as the purplish venom could be seen continuing to crawl inside his veins. Not giving a second thought Karilaya quickly pulled the man out of the river, not having enough energy to use her magic after throwing several spells against the giant serpent, she was barely able to use her magic to move the man who weighed almost thrice her own. At that same moment, she felt a surge of magic within the air, forcing her to drag him to a nearby cave that she saw hidden near the waterfalls. She was forced to move faster along with also gathering their stuff with her magic all at once. After setting up her barrier and securing everything inside the cave, she was finally able to properly take a good look at the

    Karilaya’s consciousness was woken up by the extreme heat and tension that her body was feeling, it felt like she was burning up from inside, her muscles tightening as she felt waves of pressure bombarded every part of her body. Her chest was rising up and down really fast as she felt herself gasping for air. It didn’t take long until all of her senses were fully awake, forcing her to finally open her eyes from her deep slumber.It was then and there that she finally understood where the feverish feeling was coming from. She could not help but let out a high-pitched whimper when she felt a sudden rush of bliss pierce straight into the inner core of her body.“Max!” She called him, her voice trembling and weak as she tried covering her chest when he saw his gaze at her.The man’s face was between her legs, his eyes were now glowing red as it had taken its dragon form. She felt His lips buried

    Was this the warm feeling of death or was it just a figment of her thought? Hearing the captain’s fleeting voice cooing her, all the while crying as if he was in deep sorrow.“What have I done, what have I done!” a deep, trembling, familiar voice pulled Karilaya’s senses.It was only then that she knew she had awakened from a dream, remembering that she was in that special little place where she would always see her mother. There, they would always laugh and play, and she would chase after her in those golden fields of tall grass. When they would finish strolling the land, she would lay down on her mother's lap, giggling as she would pat her hair while singing a lullaby.“Stay still little princess, don’t fight, don’t fret, for the guardians of light will bring you dread, so stay still little princess if you wish the guardians to be with you,” she could still remember that

    Like a rabbit springing back and forth, the captain kept appearing and disappearing within the bushes during their travel. He’d be in the front looking around then ducking into the bushes and after a moment he’d be behind her, glaring at some unseen thing within the lush forest.It was amazingly another fine day, the sun was shining up high in the sky, birds and insects could be heard almost everywhere, and the crystal blue river that they were following flowed with fishes.She would have been at peace if not for the idea that they were now marching towards where the captain thinks is the way back to the kingdom. Up until now, she was unable to convince the man, making her more worried for their safety.She put her thoughts away when the captain jumped back to her side. “Max, what is wrong with you?” she teased him as he was unable to stop from looking around.“I am just making sure that everything is

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.

    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.
