All Chapters of Blood and Darkness: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

"I'd definitely do that!""And while we are on the journey, I'm the superior. You will follow everything I say. Do you understand?"That doesn't seem very right, but I think I have to give it to him for now?"All right. It's clear to me.""No buts," he added.I grimaced. "Fine!""Hate it? Why don't you just stay in the palace and wait for me to come back instead?""And I will die in curiosity of what's happening to you out there. Can you imagine those sleepless nights being alone and worried sick? Thank you very much, but I certainly don't want that for myself."His eyes narrowed. "Such a hardheaded lady.""I won't be Ophelia if I don't insist my point. If you're planning to live with me for the next couple of months, you should get used to this attitude of mine.""I think so too," he replied quickly and before I could react, I already felt his soft lips against my forehead.It was very quick but enough to scatter my thoughts and make my heart leap in both shock and anxiousness. I eve

"Hello, my dear guests! What can I offer you?" Tall and middle aged woman, beautiful but has exaggerated colors in the face. Must be the Madame of this whorehouse."And how about you, lady? Are you, perhaps, going to apply?"What on earth did she ask? Do I look like I'm going to apply to be a whore? I may have thought about it once before, but that was because I had nowhere to go and desperate to earn. I am offended honestly."Apply for what?" Demitri's tone was cold and lethal.I quickly held his arm to stop going further. This madame could help us find that person so we should not make a bad impression."I am with them, Madame. I'm his mate, and they are his brothers who are here to drink and have fun," I said politely and with a smile."Oh! My apologies for my wrong assumption. I thought..." She chuckled. "Anyway, should I get a private room for the group or each of you will have separate rooms?"The wind blew from somewhere, blowing the Madame's hair. She got distracted for a bit

"What do you think happened to Mr. Elixr?" I whispered to Demitri when we were already in our way out of the bordello. The others were busy checking out the wine."I have no idea," he answered."Really? The mighty crown prince of the most powerful kingdom in the east, no idea?"He smirked and shook his head. I thought he would send me back to the carriage but I was surprised when he pulled me towards his black stallion."Want to have your first ride with me?"My eyes widened. I didn't expect that!"Are you serious?""I am." "Let's go then!"He cocked his head, hiding his face from the warm sunlight. I bit the insides of my lip as I watched his features carefully. Even in broad daylight, the darkness in his eyes was unforgiving. Though in spite the hardness and traces of storm in his face, there's no doubt he is a masterpiece. And I would definitely not get tired of staring at his face all day long."Quit staring. I might think you already fell in love with me."My jaw literally dropp

"What did you mean, Princess? Do you know what kind of dragon that is?" Prince David looked around, getting ready for any possible attacks."A blue dragon." I gulped before I proceeded to my scripted explanation. "A dragon that can manipulate heavenly elements such as lightning and thunder.""Well, that explains why its growl was accompanied by a thunder." Prince Martin nodded."You seem to have a lot of knowledge about dragons, Princess." It was a statement not a question. But regardless, it sounded like one."Uh, I just... read a lot. That's all..." I explained hesitantly.About a fraction of second after I what I said, we heard a strange sound from huge wings flipping over the air somewhere near us. Demitri held my wrist at once and pulled me towards his back, shielding me with his body from any potential danger."You said you can communicate with dragons, right, Princess? How about you communicate with him or her?"'Him. He's a male,' Raja corrected. I rolled my eyes and echoed th

'How?' I asked Raja.'Blue dragons have only one weakness. Fire.'What? You should have told me earlier!'Even if you have the ability to manipulate fire, I don't think you can make an arrow out of fire. One should hit the eyes of the blue dragon with a fire arrow. It won't kill him but it can blind him for moments, then the princes can do something to paralyze him afterwards.'Fire arrow. I had never did that nor I tried. I also don't think I can do that, but...I looked at the Demitri... Prince David... Prince Martin... Prince Evan. They are all struggling to defeat the magical dragon in order to save the queen. Will I just stand aside and do nothing while they are facing such risk? Will I just watch them fighting while I stay behind?No. I should at least try. After all, there is no harm in trying.'Right,' Raja agreed. 'You may try but if you can't do it, don't push yourself too much. You know you are still in the early stage of your training.'I inhaled and exhaled. I closed my e
