"We need to get to the castle today. Alistair, I need Apheles' help." I informed them after breakfast. Alistair's mood seemed to have lightened. She chatted heartily with Emiliar while cooking. Well, Emiliar has that skill. Besides, it was a full house in the kitchen. Claire and Emiliar had enough gossips to take anyone's mind off his problems. The group dispersed to pack their belongings and prepare the horses leaving Alistair and I in the living room.
Alistair walked to a window, made her usual whistling noise in the air while I wrote a note to the Army head."We are on our way to the castle. We'll stay at the castle till the day of the war. You promised our safety. We are Eight, by the way.Karen."I folded the note and placed in Apheles claws. Alistair kissed her and she flew away. She remained at the window, her dark mood slowly renewing itself."Alistair, are you okay?" I was forced to ask."Of course."She smiled. It was glaringly faked. "KatrienaRelated chapters

" Is that Alistair, the first princess of the white coven." Israel shrieked on seeing us. Even his guards, wore a surprised look. I took a glance at Alistair. Well, her expression was bland but I could tell she wasn't enjoying the publicity.Isreal walked up to us as we dismounted from our horse. He bowed to Alistair. She only nodded."Oh my goodness Milady, we all thought you were dead.""I am."Alistair finally spoke. "I mean, for now. You and your guards should keep this as a secret for now. I'm not ready to reveal myself to the public, okay?""Okay, Milady"Wow, Alistair's perfect!*We walked along the aisle, Israel leading the way. He looked less frigid than he was the last time. He was happy, though when he asked for the chosen one, I said I had no idea. He was surprised I could lift the key, I guess that shut him up. He said he had prepared a table for us but we insisted we needed to rest. It's no good time for eating, is it?He

I decided to go check up on Alistair. Ethan was exiting the room when I walked in. I saw Alistair on her bed, head buried in her pillow. I got curious. What happened here?"Alistair." I joined her. "Hei, it's me."I removed the pillow from her head. I saw her relax. She opened a drawer and gave me a photoframe. I was stunned. There was a couple in it. They looked very young and beautiful. The young woman had long curly golden hair, her green eyes stood out in the picture. The young man was like the most handsome being I've ever seen, I had to remind myself it's just a picture. He had flashy blue eyes and perfect black hair."Our parents. You never met them but..."I was so shocked on hearing this that for a moment I doubted my ears."What did you say?""That's mom and dad. You know them now."She yawned."Oh my...they are stunning. Ah..."I held it to my heart, fantasizing about them feeling my heart beat."I'll find them. I will.""Is there anyt

Sylvia curtsied on seeing Israel walk into her apartment. She had stayed in, brooding since their last talk."Sylvia, how are you doing?"Isreal took a seat on the couch."I'm okay Milord."She answered."You told the head of maids you weren't."Israel haf asked of her from the head maid since he didn't see her thought-out his preparations for Karen and her company.Sylvia muttered an apology."Have you remembered?"He asked. Sylvia gave a solemn nod."Then I have no choice" Israel said. "We have a big war tomorrow. The chosen one and her comrades have arrived. You need your memory because you would be at war tomorrow and you need to remember your fighting skill at least. I can't leave you here in he castle. It's not safe. "He stood up from his seat and moved closer to her. Sylvia froze in place, scared of what his next step would be. She stood up, her back against the wall."We still have some time. it's just noon. You will be awake before dawn, surel

There was a feast at the castle. The usual kind of feast Roger has whenever a big war is coming. Julian was in his chamber with kabal, teaching him the things he needed to know, when a guard informed him about the feast and that the king asks that he must be there. Kabal had mix feelings about it but he could not stop his master from attending the feast. Julian instructed him to turn off the lights and go to bed but Kabal could not. He felt something was off. Maybe something really was off. He left the chamber, though late, he had lost sight of Julian. He walked round the castle, searching for the exact place the feast was holding but didn't find it. It's a private feast so it wasn't taken at the assembly hall. Frustrated, he retraced his steps back to the chamber.He was stopped by whisperings from a room, the royal kitchen. His curiosity led on and he decided to have a peek through the half closed window.He saw Raleigh conversing with the head nurse. He had to strain hi

I stood on the top of one of the hills of the northern province of the demons territory, my comrades by my side.The demons' soldiers were already on the horizon. We planned to go meet them at the castle but the sudden change of event didn't matter anyway. All around, men were busy preparing their weapons. Archers took positions, thousands of them, arrows and bows also ready. If they want it on this hill, so be it. Thousands of more men took positions with Spears, young legion members with slings. Thousands of men beneath the hill had swords and Shields and every weapon imaginable. Israel was giving commands, with Alistair, looking stronger by my side. I felt optimistic. This is the war I've lived for. With the Key wounded in my hands, I already knew what the results of the war would be. It would be a hard one though.I looked again over the horizon and reminded myself of what was coming. The demons has never been defeated on any battle. I forced myself to believe that this ti

The number of Roger's troop seemed limitless and no matter how many we killed, it seemed futile. For every hundred that was killed, two hundred appeared. All the while the horizon continued to flood with them, row after row, division after division, crammed up like a million worker ants. They were able to stop the fire, they pushed off the flaming soldiers away an took up new positions. The death of several thousands of their men didn't even put a dent on their forces.Yet at our side, every death made an impact, though we didn't have many. That kept my hope alive. We were already far away from the hill where the war started. Our army was still very much in the spirit. I was proud, they had sustained injuries but that didn't stop them. The key was just the best. It was killing four men at a time. I swinged it around while moving and ducking at the same time. At the corner of my eye, I heard a scream. I had less time to linger on that sight because I was being attacked from ever

"Next, little bit of rain."Alistair said on getting towards the castle, then the rain began. This time, chilly waters dropped.We saw that the walls have been shut tightly with everything Roger possessed. It's the first time in Roger's history, he got suddenly scared of war. It isn't a war anymore or is it?"We're not burning down the castle. Let's go back."I only followed her command. We turned back, going back to our comrades. Looking over the wretch we've created, I could not help but feel pity. I, Katrienair, that weird kid in school, had a part in these. It's unimaginable. I've really grown up and things have really changed. I remembered Arkishair and muttered a little prayer for her. Alistair noticed, her next words proved it."She'll be proud of you.""And you too."Alistair shook her head. "I don't think she would remember."We got to the spot the white coven's army stood, they was massive celebration in the air. They were rejoicing because our

"You will rot in hell!"He yelled and turned to leave. Alistair stopped him."Who deserves to rot in hell Roger?"She spoke into the conch. "You have just one day to make a choice. It's either you come down here to surrender to us or we break into your walls."Roger laughed, sounded like it rooted from some bottled forces in his chest. "You that kid! Let's see who lasts one day."He walked away.I faced Alistair. She just made the wrong decision. Giving Roger even a second can change the way things are going."You know Roger would never surrender to us.""I don't intend to keep him either"Alistair said. "Even if he surrenders, I won't let that devil live, never. It's better to catch the devil unawares. We are going in now."I smiled. Alistair's smart. I guess you have to be a demon to fight a demon. I'm proud of her."So, how do we get in?"I asked. "The soldiers can't climb. They won't be caught unawares then."Alistair nudged me by my side. "You
