The once lively campsite is now pushed into chaos after the giant entered. The Were warriors are trying to fight the giant, but they are being swatted like ants by the giant. Iris, on the other hand, is rooted to the ground as her head began to feel heavy and she began to remember a small girl running alone in the dark. A group of giant Nephilim men is hunting her and the girl looked terrified. "Run princess. Run away" she heard a cry from a man, who began to scream with pain. "Ahhh" the girl stopped when the cries of the man stopped suddenly. Despite being young, she knows that her father is dead. "No, father" she turned in the direction from where she is running away and cried with gut-wrenching pain. "Iridessa, we have to run. Come on" an old man urged and pulled the girl to lead her away from there. But the little girl struggled and tried to break free from that old man. "No, they have my parents. They will kill them. We need to save them" the little girl begged the old m
The Nephilim is visibly outnumbered. It is quite obvious that it is not easy for him to kill the princess and be done with their race. They were searching for the runaway princess of the Skipper seer race for a long time now. They found out that she is hiding in the human world. Upon searching the human world thoroughly, they came up empty-handed. When they began to think that they might not find her at all, they received a tip from someone from the Were kingdom about her. The Nephilim lord thought that it's easy to kill a single defenceless female who is yet to come to her full powers. She is as weak and vulnerable as a human. But upon reaching here, the Nephilim is shocked to see the mighty Were king protecting the Skipper seer. What shocked him even more is that the Skipper princess is ready to kill the Nephilim with her bow and Arrow instead of running away to save her life.The giant is frozen with shock and is calculating his next move either to escape or kill the princess. The
"I miss home. I want to go back" Iris confessed truthfully.When Eros heard the longing in her voice, he felt bad for her. He doesn't know where she came from and who she is. He is not even sure about the other world she keeps claiming that she came from. No matter who she is and where she came from, he wanted her to be happy, just like she was when she was joking and laughing with his warriors."Don't worry. I got a message from my messenger that they found our priest. They said he is on his way to the palace. As soon as he comes, we can tell him about your world and he will find a way to send you back" he assured her.Iris relaxed when she heard his words. She is happy that she can go back and put this part of her life behind her. But she would miss Eros terribly."Thank you" she whispered.Just then Thomas, Dimitri and the other chief warriors came to speak with Eros. They quietly stood a little farther away, patiently waiting for Eros to call them.Iris noticed their present first
"You came from a world where only humans reside?" Ojas asked Iris, making her shoulders sag with disappointment. After the earlier incident with the Nephilim, her fight or flight instinct is activated and she is more desperate to go back to her world than ever. That's the reason why she disclosed everything in front of Ojas whom Eros considers his enemy. "Forget about it. I know Eros would find a way to help me. You are all useless" she muttered and turned away from him to leave his presence. Ojas recovered from his confusion and stopped her. "No, stop. Apologies. I didn't know people from your race prefer to live anywhere other than your own. And moreover, you are a Skipper seer. I was just confused for a minute when you asked me to help you to go to another world. People from your race can easily skip between worlds. What happened to you? Why do you need our help to go back? Why can't you use your natural born abilities to go back?" he asked her with confusion. He is confident
"Iris, What happened?" Eros asked her with worry. By now, she is considerably better than a few minutes ago. Away from all the prying eyes, she is feeling safe in his arms. But her fear of the unknown is like a constant reminder of what she did and the Nephilim. "I broke his arm" she confessed softly. Eros frowned. "Who's?" he asked casually, not at all making it look like a huge thing. When he asked like that, Iris relaxed even more. "Ojas" she replied. Eros began to laugh at her confession. "Really? Serves him right for forcing us to come this far away from the palace" he said and chuckled with amusement. This is not how Iris imagined him to react. So she lifted her head from between the juncture of his shoulder and neck to look at him with surprise. His amusement helped her to lessen her fear a little. When Eros saw how quietly Iris is looking at him, he grinned and kissed both her cheeks fondly. "You are scared about that silly thing? My brave Iris is actually scared?
In the Were Palace, Eros, Iris, Thomas, and Ojas along with a handful of guards reached the Palace. By the time they returned, it was early morning hours. The sun is yet to rise from the east. It's still a little darker. But still, the palace is bustling with people who look busy with something or the other. They are surprised to find the entire Palace lit with bright lights and well decorated with flowers and some expensive showpieces as if they are welcoming their king back after his victory over the Golem. "Do they already know that you are coming back to the palace?" Iris, who is sitting on the horse in front of Eros asked him quietly. Eros is confused as well. He specifically ordered his warriors and Dimitri not to inform about his return to anyone in the palace. But the decorations and the lively palace are not what he was expecting to find. "I don't think so" he murmured with a frown. He couldn't put his finger on it, but he is sensing that something is wrong here. The tr
Iris is frustrated. Instead of stopping his finance's marriage, Eros is waiting for her to marry someone else. She is not understanding why he is doing this."Are you heartbroken? Is that why you are behaving as if you don't care whom she gets married to? Do you want me to go talk to her? I don't have a very good opinion about Mina, but she is your fiancee. You must have seen something in her which made you to choose her. You have known that woman for a few years now. You must have grown attached to her. I can understand it must be hard for you to accept the fact that she is marrying someone else. I will go and tell her that you came back. She will stop this wedding" Iris suggested to help Eros. She turned away from him to go find Mina and stop her wedding. But Eros stopped her by pulling her back to him by her wrist."No need. Let it happen" he murmured nonchalantly.Iris glared at him. "Are you nuts? Is this how a heartbroken man acts and behaves in this world? I am willing to hel
In the Were palace prison cell, Ojas released his gas and made all the guards unconscious. He is controlling the strength of his gas, so he can target individuals rather than the whole group. As per the instructions given to him by Eros, he came here to fetch Maxim and the ministers who are imprisoned for their loyalty. Eros even instructed Ojas to bring his aunt and his stepmother Tasha out of the prison as well. That surprised Ojas. He never thought Eros would release Tasha so soon. But he is not complaining either. Knowing about Eros, that Were king has something going on in his mind.One after another all the guards have done down. Finally, when Ojas located the cell where Maxim and the others have been held, he knocked on the iron doors to catch their attention."We don't want food. Go away" Maxim snapped angrily. The guards are loyal to Maxim as he is their general. But they are as helpless as the others. They cannot go against the throne, so they had to keep their general impri
