Especially not with Naomi about to give birth,” Aliyah replied, pacing around. “I wonder how we can reach Asher, don’t you think she is waiting for him?”“Noami is indeed waiting for him, but if the young wolf wants to come out, she can’t stop it,” Irene answered, and just then, a loud scream rang out, and they both glanced up the stairs. “If only she could just let go. She has been at it since last night.”“Ah,” Aliyah groaned. “Do you think we should take her to the human hospital? They can give her this surgery they call C-section, right?”“I can carry it out,” Irene said, “I helped you with Asher, did I not?”“Then why are you here? Go on already.”“Naomi doesn’t want to. It’s not like she is having a difficult birth; she doesn’t want to without Asher by her side.”“If she continues like this, both she and the baby will die.”“I told h
Mariah was lying on the bed when she sensed a presence in the room with her. She had sent the maids to their rest station after Athena left because she wanted to be alone. She sat up on the bed immediately; the candles in the room offered a dim light, but she could already tell who was in the room with her. She smiled and patted the bed beside her. “Come sit, I didn’t know I would see you again before the war.”Alaric sighed and approached her, sitting beside her as she had wanted. His hair was up in a tight ponytail for the first time, and a golden metal-like hairband was used to hold it up. The hairstyle highlighted his face, making his features look sharp but handsome.“I think you should always wear a full ponytail. I like the half style you usually wear, though, but this is a first, not like the loose one I made you wear in the human realm.” Mariah said, chuckling. Her eyes followed the length of his hair, and although it was in a high ponytail, the length nearly reached his wais
Mariah glanced around the little room she had been brought in. Five maids knelt in front of her but Elena was not one of them. She sat on the feathered bed, it was soft and small but it can make do. With the news of the gods attacking, Alaric had ordered that children and the women who can’t fight be locked in the Panic cave he had been preparing since he saved them. The Keep, he calls it, she has heard him talk about it a lot of times but she never thought he actually built a kingdom underground. They were more rooms than she can count, an although, people were made to share, he actually made a provision for her to stay alone, long before it was even revealed that she was his mate.The woman, Elder Athena had insisted that Alaric marked her, however, since the news was announced that the gods were attacking, she has not seen Alaric or Asher again. She placed a hand on her stomach, it all still felt surreal to her. She is pregnant, and she is carrying twins, she could imagine how shoc
“I do not understand, why are we attacking the dragons now. I thought Ramiel said we will do so in a month? T’s has only been two weeks,” Alinta asked as she watched the armies that have gathered together in front of her. Every god and goddess had readied their army, all except Selene. It was just like ten thousand years ago, they had all prepared but she was nowhere to be found.“Indeed, however, Ramiel claims to have had a premonition,” Haziah answered.“Premonition?” Azura frowned, “since when does he have a premonition?”“Since I sensed that Selene’s creature carries twin dragon eggs,” Ramiel appeared in front of them. His eyes were glowing white like a thunderous storm was raging in them. “Twin dragon eggs have always been known as the strongest of all dragons. I do not need to tell you this, you have all witnessed the birth and death of every twin dragon that were born. The last ones were even a handful, but thanks to the almighty, they did not wreak havoc in the world during th
Alaric stood up instantly. His eyes revealed his shock as he turned to Mariah and grabbed her hand. “Mariah,” he called, his voice shaky, “is it true? Do you carry an egg?”“Huh?” Mariah and Asher asked at the same time.“What do you mean, egg?” Asher asked.“We dragons lay eggs,” Helios answered.“Huh?” Asher and Mariah asked again, sharing a look with each other and turning to the people with them.“Tell me, Mariah,” Alaric asked.“I do-I don’t know,” she answered. “I am surprised at what I am hearing.”Athena frowned, “What is going on? Why does the king ask the demon princess such a question?”“Um, Elder Athena, there is something you do not know. When I told you the king has taken a demon princess as a lover, I lied. She is not just his lover, she is his mate,” Vasilios explained, feeling ashamed.“What? The king had found his mate, and I was not aware of this?” Athena was vexed. “Tell me, Lord Vasilios, had the dragon stone not glowed, would you have still kept me in the dark?”
“Alaric!” Vasilios shouted his name as he stood up, the force of it making the chair he was sitting on fall down and shatter.Alaric glanced at his father. Ever since he was crowned King, even though the fight with Aspa happened almost immediately, his father had not called him by his given name again. If he did so now, it could only show how angry he was with him. “I am sorry, Father, but it cannot be hidden anymore. Mariah suddenly started talking about waiting until after the fight before we have our mating ceremony. But I know Mariah, Father, she would not just request that unless someone put her to it. I can already guess the day you must have met with her, and you were indeed wise to have taken the time I was relaxing with the wolf king after our spar to fill my mate’s head with nonsense. I wonder what you must have told her to get her to agree. You probably must have said something about the dragons abandoning me during the fight with the gods, because I am mated to a land demo
Mariah watched Alaric in awe, never had she anticipated such apology from him and definitely not so soon or any time in fact. She was speechless, not knowing the best way to disclose her happiness.“And see how wrong I am,” Alaric continued, still on his knees and his head bowed. “I never really th
After Alaric had returned to his cave that night, it had been difficult sleeping on an empty stomach and the next day, he had broken free some gold from his coffin. He had cursed Ramiel to hell and back for not burying him as a king. He didn’t even bother to bury him with any treasure, how was he e
In a world, far beyond the world, there were clouds around and the houses were built in white and gold. They were people dressed in white armor, holding spears and keeping guard. A man cladded in white robe ran to a towering mansion and knocked heavily on the door, he was soon summoned in by a deep
Everyone welcomed Irene and Rasmus during breakfast. They had returned early in the morning, and Aliyah was still asleep. Noah and Asher were the only ones awake when they returned, but Irene decided that they would turn in and all meet during breakfast.Aliyah smiled on seeing the older woman who
