The Slayer The Pendant
Dinner was served for me in the room I was staying in. So much for being a 'guest'. But I guessed I could not blame them, though. I came unannounced and unwanted. I was the bearer of the bad news for them, bringing war to their doorsteps and endangering the lives of their families. I was entitled to their hostility. Swallowing the bitter feeling I focused on the food on my plate.The plate was actually made of a big leaf symbolizing the way they were attached to nature and still ate in tree leaves like ancient people. Even each of the dishes were completely vegetarian. Nonetheless, the food tasted heavenly. Placing the used plate and the water beside the bed I got ready for bed. But before my eyes could get closed, a light knock on the door interrupted me.I stood up from the bed to open the door and saw Mydia standing there with another female. "Can I come in, Seraphina?" She politely asked."Yes, of course. Please come in." I said leaning sideways to give her space to enter. "You
The Slayer The Alliance
I sheathed my sword, put my daggers in the holster at my thighs and hid an extra dagger at the backside of my belt and concealed it with the long hood I always wore. Today, I will either earn an ally or me coming this far from home would go in vain. Last night, Mydia assured me that Queen Sylva will agree for the alliance but I was still nervous.This was my first step at proving myself and if I lose on the first attempt I didn't know where to go, from here on. I just prayed to the moon goddess that I was on the right path and today goes in my favor. Taking one final self-assuring breath and putting a face of indifferent confidence, I opened the doors of my chambers and took in Irun standing in front of me. "Took you long enough." She commented and started walking right after. After a short while of silent walk, Irun spoke again. "So, what do you think will happen?" I thought about it for a bit chewing my inner cheeks. "I don't know. Anything can happen. What do you think?" I counte
The Slayer The Threat
After the successful agreement with the Elf Queen Sylva, the two royal siblings and other castle residents came outside the castle to bid me farewell. The humble people had insisted on packing me food for the long journey, even after I politely refused. Mydia reminded me for the second time to keep the emerald green magical stone safe with me. That reminded me of stopping at my grandma's coven on way back to the castle.Irun and Roe accompanied me to the enchanted lake, which was considered the border of the Elf's Kingdom. Apparently, there was a path that circled the lake, so I didn't have to cross the lake by swimming all the way. At the lake, I thought that when I've reached this far, it would be a waste if I don't get a little of the healing water with me. So, I dipped the pitcher I had to contain water, and filled it to the brim. Then, it was time to bid farewell to the elf females beside me."Now I must depart. I hope to meet you again." As annoying as it was, Irun's personalit
The Slayer The Welcome Back
I visited grandma on the way back to the castle. She told me about the stone that Mydia had given me, that it was actually a part of a broken key. The key that locked the exiled creatures in the secluded part of the world, which no one knew where it really was.According to the legends and myths, the key was destroyed to avoid the possibilities of someone freeing the creatures, before their time. The broken parts of the key were three stones. First stone was the protector, which refused the creatures to cross the border and the second one, manipulated fire. The fire surrounded the border so no one would come near it.The final and the third stone was actually a source of power. It drew energy from non-living beings like stones, mountains, soil and water and used it as a physical owner to the other two stones. Which meant, the security was always active. It was meant to be like that until the creatures were free to return. Until the war.All the three stones were distributed by the god
The Slayer The Jealousy
"What are you doing in my room, Alpha King?" I asked quietly, eyes casted down, body frozen where it stood. "How was your trip?" He asked instead, tilting his head. "You didn't answer my question." I replied. "You didn't acknowledge my greeting." He countered. His infuriatingly cocky and smug expression dancing in his voice. I shook my head and stared at the ceiling above me. "What do you want, Alpha King?" I asked impatiently, tapping the door with my nails. Sheets rustled, indicating his movements and my eyes shut on their own accord.The next thing I knew, he was standing in front of me and not even an arm length's distance between us. His scent seeped in through the pores on my body, chasing any remnants of tiredness away, awakening every cell of my being. "You are a stubborn little thing, aren't you? But know this, I can do this the whole night with you. And about what I want," He leaned closer. His mouth just an inch away from my ear, his breath caressing my jaw. "I really w
The Slayer The Ball Gown
"What are you doing here, brother?" Princess asked the Alpha King, quirking her eyebrow up. "Whatever happened to the females of my castle? They don't pay me any respect, anymore." He commented, passing me to stand where the princess sat on her bed. His arm barely touching mine, separated by just a breath of air. He yet had to make eye contact with me and I was already having sweaty palms. The princess rolled her eyes at him, whilst everyone else's were gazing downwards, standing upright. "Alright. What brings you here on this fine day, oh brother?"she asked with an overly polite smile on her face. The Alpha King chuckled. "I thought I might just stop to see my sister, while I'm passing by her room. I don't get much time nowadays to spend it with you, do I?" He said his eyes turning apologetic."No, you don't." She grumbled back. "So, tell me what are we doing, right now. Oh, this looks like a lot of fabric. Ah, are you preparing for the ball, Ellyana?" He inquired sitting on one
The Slayer The Alpha King's Note
Princess," I drew in a breath, pulling my hands out of her grasp. "He has not forced me to do anything and I assure you, he does not have any immoral intentions regarding me. I trust him about that. He just said that...that he is...He just likes me, I think." I rushed out and squeezed my eyes shut. I could only hope that she didn't think of me as a desperate female, now. "And, do you like him, too, Seraphina?""I... I don—maybe I do, princess." Oh, who was I kidding? Of course I liked him. How couldn't I? "If you know what you are getting yourself into, then I don't have to interfere, I guess," she finally smiled. "But," she frowned, trying to look intimidating, that she couldn't. "I will have a word with my brother about this, too. And I will let him know that if he even unknowingly hurts you, he will have to face my wrath." I chuckled when when her words took form of images in my head. She smiled bright, too.After she disappeared into her room I too, went to my chambers just acr
The Slayer The Argument
"Queen?" My eyebrow quirked up. "Have you already decided that? And how can you be so sure? We haven't even discussed about that, yet." My toes twitched and fidgeted inside my boots in apprehension."What is there to discuss? You like me and I like you, I deem you capable enough to stand by my side and…And which female wouldn't want to be the Queen of this entire Kingdom." He chuckled, sensing my change of mood and trying to dissipate the tension.But that was actually what did it. "I thought we had established that before that I am not like the others." My muscles tensed, dissolving the ease that I had come to feel with him. "That was not what I meant to say, Seraphina. I meant that there are so many options of what type of Queen a female can be. You can choose your own way, I'm not generalizing you with the others." He was calm as he said that but, his eyes were trained on my face with conviction. He had sensed my withdrawal by the way my face was now giving nothing away from my em
