Book 2 - Chapter 24

Chapter 24 – The Queen Prepares for BattleStepping out of the transport was a choice Hope could do, but instead, she contemplated on the witch’s words and an idea formed in her head.“Then let me test you now,” she asked while taking the bracelet from her lap. “Caym’s chamber, where is it? If I’m going to search his excessively decorated castle, I might as well search first in his bedroom for my friend.”Clarita smiled, seeing hope in her question.“Unfortunately, no one has ever been to Caym’s chamber, Your Majesty. No one needs to when he visits the harem tower himself,” she answered, and Hope made a disappointed face.“However,” Clarita continued and stretched a proud grin across her face. “I am not just his concubine, I am his soothsayer, so luckily I have been there. Well, in one of his chambers in the second tower at least.”

Book 2 - Chapter 25

Chapter 25 – The Queen Grim ReaperMuch to Solene’s pleasure, the armor wasn’t heavy. She was covered in it from her torso down to her feet, yet she felt as though she was only wearing denim. It fitted well with her size and it was, as an incentive, comfortable to wear—or at least it felt like it because of the padded bodysuit she wore.Platinum was the main element used in the armor, but another material the color of gold was added to the breastplate and boots. It swirled and looped to add design on the jagged surface. It made the armor grander than what it already was.It wasn’t designed for a woman, Solene thought for certain, but she chose this armor because it reminded her of the shade of her hair. It reminded her also that she could be her own knight-in-shining armor in this tournament to the death.To complete her ensemble, Solene chose a platinum helmet that fully covered her face. Three holes i

Book 2 - Chapter 26

Chapter 26 –The Queen and Her ScytheStanding inside the battleground now made Solene feel more like an ant. The arena was even larger at this angle. Even more imposing. Even more suffocating. She could feel the heat of the many eyes on her: some curious of what she looked like, some with lust simply because she was a woman, and some with the intent to torture her.Solene controlled her knees and hands from shaking and walked forward onto a circular platform on her front. There was no going back now. Fighting her opponents was the only answer to her problem.“Our Lady Grim Reaper is ready!” She heard Caym shout behind her. “Let’s start the tournament then!”With that, the audience roared again.Drum beats sounded in a rhythm that suggested doom; slow and steady at first until it gained force. It didn’t match Solene’s heartbeat though for hers was like a jackhammer trying to open

Book 2 - Chapter 27

Chapter 27 – The Queen’s Answer‘I’d rather not!’ was what Solene would have said if she had her voice, but Caym—now more cautious—didn’t beguile her to speak, so instead, her answer to his invitation was a flat look on her face.Caym’s brow twitched. With her helmet on, he couldn’t see the silent answer, but he understood exactly just what it was. In reply, he stepped closer to whisper in her ear. “You will not reject me in front of my people, Solene.”‘My people?’ Her thoughts parroted. It was a laughable claim when he wasn’t the King of Sattus in the first place. He was only a lord in this land and nothing more.‘Do I look like I care?!’ she answered in her head and without hesitation, swung the scythe toward his neck again, but just like last time, she missed. Caym was able to dodge it,

Book 2 - Chapter 28

Chapter 28 – The Queen HiddenThey all looked like red ants walking towards an anthill ready to serve their queen’s whims. Hope cursed at herself and this situation. Why did she pose as a concubine in the first place? Why didn’t she volunteer as a servant instead? Both had pros and cons, but at least servants get to run around the castle more freely than a concubine.Like the other towers, the eighth was connected to the main castle through an open bridge, but it could be accessed too on the ground. Hope could see the seventh tower from where they passed—in a tiled pathway with no plants at all—and she could only stare at it with anticipation. Soon, she would be able to go there...very soon and all of these acting and being a woman would end.To add to the effect, as per Mistress Nakti’s words, all concubines had to wear a mask. It only covered their eyes and nose, but their lips were open for kissing and for.

Book 2 - Chapter 29

Chapter 29 – The Queen Meets Her OpponentOnce again, Mistress Nakti was disappointed to see Solene not dressed in a gown for the party. Instead of a gauzy material, she wore her platinum breastplate and pants, and instead of jewelries on her neck and hands, her helmet and gauntlet stayed in place.In the very beginning, Solene didn’t want to go to the celebration. Wearing her armor was her way of rebelling against Caym, and she relished the look of frustration on the caretaker’s face too when she emerged from her room.“You are a stubborn woman,” Mistress Nakti lashed before Solene could leave with the crow soldier. “I don’t wish you well on the second round. I wish you death.”Solene just created an enemy inside Caym’s castle, but she didn’t care. She ignored the old woman’s spiteful words and diverted her attention to the darkly lit hallway.With her scythe

Book 2 - Chapter 30

Chapter 30 – The Queen Gains JusticeSneaking inside the seventh tower was easy. For some reason, there were no guards posted in every hallway entrance and in every room. Hope would have been prepared to encounter one or two during her search; this was the reason why she remained in this cursed gown after all—to seduce them and then incapacitate them—but there were no obstacles along her way.She wanted this, however. The better and quicker she could find Solene if there were no setbacks.Her wedge sandals brought her freely to different rooms: the first one was a gym, the second was an entire floor of training and sparring space, the third was the bath, and the fourth was the weapons’ room. She continued checking all the chambers in every floor, and with each opening of a door, Hope’s idea of the tower strengthened.The seventh tower, as it appears, was designed to be an arsenal and barracks. A one-sto

Book 2 - Chapter 31

Chapter 31 – The Queen Clueless ‘The second basement, in the dungeon of this tower,’ that was what Halpas said, and Hope was enraged to hear it.Out of all the places Solene was kept, it had to be a dungeon. She wasn’t a criminal. She wasn’t meant to be in that miserable place. She was the Queen of Sattus, and she should have been treated well more than the concubines in Caym’s tower!In haste, Hope jumped over a series of stairs, flew past hallways and stormed through doors until she reached the dungeons. She had a couple in her castle in Sattus, and she admitted, the rooms were as bleak and as dreary as the ones before her. Darkly lit with torches, humid, and full of equipment meant to torture—everything was a copy-cat.She encountered guards along the way—humanoid crows in their armors and spears—but she was skilled in hiding, using the shadows of the walls and beams t

Book 2 - Chapter 32

Chapter 32 – The Queen Gains a ComradeHope returned to the eighth tower with ease and in the quickest time. She was certain now Solene was still there and with her there, she can act on her plan.The idea was to act like a concubine again serving drinks, seduce Solene in her armored form, and bring her to a secluded location in the guise of them fucking. No one would ever suspect that. Not even Caym, who was still clueless of their real identities.After fixing her mask, Hope strode to the open double doors with confidence in her chest. From where she was, she could see her beloved still sitting next to the bastard demon. And this time, true to the crow woman’s word, Solene took off her helmet.She wasn’t enjoying the party judging from the frown on her face, and like earlier, her eyes were busy searching...and it was clear to see now, she was actually searching for her.‘What twisted fate this is,’ H

Book 2 - Chapter 33

Chapter 33 – The Queen Gains a DaggerIt was a party, but Solene couldn’t find any enjoyment in it. Zaraat had already declared her his next target. Hope was out there looking for her. She shouldn’t be sitting here and glaring at the guests. It was a waste of valuable time, but Caym was still beside her, and he expressly stated earlier he wanted her to stay until the end of the party. This meant evening. And this meant only a few hours before the second round starts.The other winners were still at the party too, so Solene couldn’t help but think, was this his way of testing them? If so, then she had better luck. She wasn’t drinking their wine too much. She was still of sane mind, while some of her humanoid counterparts were about to crawl on the floor.A soldier covered in metallic dark red armor approached the demon lord a few hours later. Solene wanted to know what they were discussing, but the soldier lowe
