Sylvia was in the kitchen, helping the other maids with the cleaning up when she got a call from her master. Her master, the army head of the white coven controls the remains of the white coven since they had no leader. Obviously, her migration brought her here as a maid. She was glad that at least, she arrived safely at her coven. She bowed on seeing him."Burn this piece of shit for me."He threw her a piece of paper, like a letter. She picked it up and walked away. He stopped her."Wait, go to the Raven house. Write to the demons that we would settle for a negotiation." Sylvia was shocked. She wanted to argue but remembered her place. She bowed and walked away. Since she joined the castle, she has been his most trusted servant and she would not want to take that for granted. She opened the letter when she was in a safe place. It was from the demon king, he offered a negotiation, though the terms haven't been made. Sylvia knew it was the worst decision he could make. She

We rode silently through towards the sacred house. I was more disguised in the cotton jumpsuit I wore. And Julian won't be easily noticed by commoners because he did not have his badge on. For the first time, he journeyed in only a shirt. He burned our coats at the brothel to avoid being traced. We both looked like a couple on an adventure. Julian was able to get only a horse. I hung on to his back while he rode.When we got to the sacred, I left him out to meet my peers. They all looked surprised to see me except Alistair who jumped happily at me. She held me close like she's never letting go."Alistair was scared." Emiliar joked. "She got us all scared Katrienair. Thank God you're safe." She joined our embrace and Claire."Joel is outside."I announced. "Im staying with you guys now."A smile formed on their faces. Somehow, I felt loved."I'd go see Joel."Alistair left. It's the first time she ever called him Joel. That got me curious. I saw Luna run down t

"Have your seat Kabal." Julian noticed he was shy to walk in."Thank you Sire" he said. "I'm really honored.""How are you doing Kabal? You look... sick." He said as he pulled off his boots."I... I feel so bad Milord. I can't tell anyone why because..." He trailed off. "No one really liked her. Except you, Master. Don't you..."" Your commander?" Julian arched his brow. "Do you really care about her that much?""I'd give my life for her Master. I owe that to her. She made me, all that I am today." Kabal sulked on his tears. Julian watched the young boy express his obsessions with his Master. Little wonder, Katrienair remembered him."She died in that lake and everyone went on with their life.""It's okay Kabal. She really is a gem. We'll miss her."He paused. "You were sent out of the legion?""Yes Sire." He paused. "Would you want to go back?"Kabal raised his head, shocked that the prince finally took interest in him."N

It's kabal's first day in Julian's room. It's the first time he woke up in royalty. It's weird, as expected. He was woken up this time not by noisy crows of Roger's birds, but the rustle noise made by royal maids. He had stayed with Julian against his mother's wish. He assured her that he'll be fine. She do not trust the demons at all. He rose up, had his bath and joined Julian at the dinning table."Morning Sire." He bowed, taking a seat across the table. His meal was served and they ate quietly.Julian was glad he got at least comfortable enough. He didn't expect him to be shy but he know how much pretence or rather impersonation, another being will put off if asked to live with the crown prince."Your training commences today." He announced. "Its a tournament with me. There's really nothing you need to learn. I'd like to see your skill."Kabal was shocked. He'd fight with the demon Prince. That is just beyond his dreams, if he ever had any. It's practically im

Young Alistair was chained in a lying position, at the centre of the assembly. The camp was as noisy as hell. Roger stood in front of her, flanked by his army, wearing a huge, triumphant smile. He was twice as large as any man she'd ever seen with long fangs and claws."Little Lamb of the white coven. Are you ready to swear your allegiance to me and enter my service." He snarled.Alistair spat in his face. "I'd never. Mark my words!"His grin widened as his eyes twinkled at her."You are brave indeed! I guess you were never taught the right manners."He looked over his cloud of army."Babestian!"He called out, his other brother, whom he has also enslaved.Babestian stepped out chains rattling from his limbs."We need to teach this little girl a lesson."Babestian only nodded, he looked so weak in those chains like he'd been enchanted or something. Roger always had his way."I would have done this myself but I'd be happier watching."H
