Chapter-57AVYANNA’S POV“Avyanna, my dad will be coming soon,” Cassandra said, and I nodded my head as I looked around.The large fountains in the middle of the ground were especially enchanting. ‘I feel like playing with water,’ Cybele suddenly said, and I sighed at her statement.‘Don’t act rashly, okay? We will play later. Also, Cassandra’s father is the demon king, and I hope I don’t need to tell you not to do anything that will give us away, right?’ I reminded her, and she snickered, saying nothing, nonetheless. “Okay, I just received a message from my dad. He is calling us to the throne room,” Cassandra suddenly said, bringing me out of my thoughts, and I nodded before following her. “Are you nervous?” Cassandra asked me, and I shrugged. “I don’t see why I should be nervous. I am not a guy asking for your hand in marriage,” I said, and she chuckled before shaking her head. “You have a good sense of humor. My dad is going to like you,” Cassandra said as she turned around th
Chapter-58Demon King Ezekiel’s POV."You look nervous, sir," my secretary said as I looked at my reflection in the mirror."I know, right? This is the first time I am meeting my daughter's friend. I know this is not a big deal, but for me, it is. Since childhood, Cassandra has never had a genuine friend, who wasn't with her because of her status or power. Most of them stayed away from her because she was a demon king's daughter," I said, and Aaron nodded his head."How come you are so sure that this new friend isn't with our princess for her power and status?" Aaron asked, and I looked at him."Do you think I don't care about my princess' safety? When she told me she had made a friend, the first thing I did was arrange for someone to look into it. I asked our spy to look into the matter, and I came to know that this girl called Avyanna is a good girl. My daughter has started to smile even more these days, and I can feel the changes in her," I said, and he smiled."It's great news, si
Chapter-59AVYANNA'S POV"Are you sure you got the right girl? I don't know why, but I am having a weird premonition about this," I heard an unfamiliar voice around me."Of course, I am sure. What do you take me as? Look at this device. Boss had given me this device to locate the most powerful girl in the kingdom. It is said that the princess is the most powerful girl. When I used this device, this girl was the most powerful in the entire area," another unfamiliar voice said."I know, right? I can't believe this demon's daughter is so powerful. The radar had crossed the upper red limit when I used it around her. We have to keep her sedated and unconscious, or she can become a nuisance to us," another voice said, and I groaned when I felt my hands and legs tied to the wall.Just what the hell is going on?Wait. I remember. Someone had hit the back of my head.'Erryn? Do you have any idea?' I asked.'Erryn? Are you there? Don't tell me you are sleeping at such a crucial time,' I groaned
Chapter-60EVANDER’S POV“Why is this deal not signed? The meeting with Alpha Xander is not fixed either. What the hell are you guys doing?” I couldn’t help but roar at them before throwing the file on the table, making Jason flinch.“Calm down, Evander. We tried to fix the meeting with Alpha Xander, but because of some personal issues with his pack, he has asked for a few days exemptions in the report handling. I had talked to you about this last night, hadn’t I? Also, the deal isn’t signed because you said you wanted to make some changes in the contract,” Jason said, and I looked at him with a scoff. “So what if you told me about it earlier? Shouldn’t you keep a track of it,” I said before looking away. “I will do it, okay? Anyway, I didn’t see Avyanna coming with you today? Has she gone somewhere?” Jason asked me, and I sighed. “She has gone to meet Cassandra’s parents. She will be gone for two days. It’s only two hours since she left, and I already feel like it’s been hours. I
Chapter-61AVYANNA'S POV"I- I didn't do it," I said as I looked at him, and he looked at me with an expression that said 'really?'"I really didn't do it. I just tried to save myself from their attack, and then I placed my hands in front of me. I didn't even open my palms, as you said earlier. Even my powers told me they were weak. I was just dodging from the man that came at me and -""Leave it. I should've known you were out here attracting trouble when I felt weird. I should've come and checked up on you earlier," He said, and honestly, seeing him like this, I felt like crying.I didn’t know since when, but he has become one of the people I have started to trust now."Come here. I know you suffered a lot today. I am sorry for being incompetent and coming late," he sighed before pulling me in for a hug, and today, I didn't mind him doing it.It is what I need at the moment.Wincing slightly when his hands accidentally brushed on my wounds, I looked up at him as he looked at my woun
Chapter-62AVYANNA'S POV"Why did nobody inform me of this?" I asked Jason and Alex, who looked at me pensively.I noticed Alex elbowing Jason, and he nodded his head before sighing."Well, I thought you guys were so close that you must've discussed these things already. I mean, it’s how it is shown in films, no? The girl and the boy get to know each other better by sharing such things, and they eventually give in to each other?" Jason said before wiggling his eyebrows suggestively, and I was about to ask him what he meant when Evander descended the stairs, making my heart swoon at his masculine walk.Concentrate, Avyanna. There are guests in the room. You can’t let everyone know how much you desire him and have them think about you otherwise and find out about your relationship. You don’t want anybody calling your relationship incest, right? I told myself before taking a deep breath."Why are you bullying my girlfriend early in the morning?" Evander said shamelessly, and I coughed on
Chapter-63AVYANNA'S POV"Hey, Avyanna," I heard, and I looked behind me, only to find Cassandra walking toward me, making me smile."Hey, Cass. How are you? Are your wounds okay? You didn't get hurt too much, did you? I heard from Evander what happened. Thank you for trying so much for me. I heard you looked for me alone for an hour and got a lot of wounds while you were doing it. I am glad to have a friend like you," I said, feeling thankful, and she looked at me with tears brimming her eyes."Seriously, Avyanna? Are you for real? You were the one who got kidnapped and beaten black and blue because of me, and you say that you are glad to have me? How can you be so good?" She asked me as a few tears fell down her eyes, making me capture them in my hand."Be careful. I might go haywire for these tears. You can't make my friend cry like this," I said before pulling her and hugging her."You can't change whatever happened that day. It wasn't your fault in any way. In fact, I am glad tha
Chapter-64AVYANNA'S POV"Hey! Are you seriously thinking about using your powers on me?" Nathaniel asked me as he held my fists in his hands and pressed me into the wall, making my heart skip a beat as he turned to look at me.His eyes held a bit of mischief as he looked at me from this close, and I gulped, knowing all too well that I was exposed."Do you think I don't know what you were trying to do just now? Are you seriously thinking about hurting me just because I know your secret?" He asked me, a little hurt evident in his eyes, and it was as if I came out of some kind of daze, I widened my eyes before shaking my head.Opening my palm after taking a deep breath, I hugged him back."I am sorry. Nathaniel, I didn't know what I was doing. I just felt threatened, and I am sorry," I said as I hugged him tighter, and he sighed before placing his hand behind my head, making me sigh.Kissing my hair, he patted my back before creating some distance between us, only enough for us to talk
