Romans & histoires A Knights Tale Game

Darkous growled; he despised losing. Slamming his hand down on the wooden table he glared at his brother, how did he always win? Darkous was the one to plan and carry out attacks, he had been for the last hundred years. And yet here Hades was, beating him at yet another game of chess. Hades laughed, his night black eyes coated with bliss. The psychopathic lord had taken a break from recruiting, deciding hours ago to pay his brother a visit, his mood instantly lifting. He would retrieve the little princess in a couple of days, taking her out of Dorians care after weeks of her being trapped within his clutches. Darkous suspected that the girl wouldn’t last much longer, her disobedient traits b

I sat off to the side, listening to my father's threats, trying to pressure Zach into marrying me. As the person directly involved, I wasn't allowed to speak. Zach remained resolute. "I will not marry Leah." Despite knowing this was all part of the game, hearing those words still struck a chord, a sudden, unexpected pang in my chest. The man before me, cold and proud, stood with a dignity that remained unshaken, even in front of my father. If things had been different, maybe we truly wouldn't marry. At my father's signal, eight bodyguards, all trained fighters, swiftly surrounded Zach.

LILITH’s POV News seems to spread in this pack like the wind, passing through every home not missing a single person. I just took a break from reading the file and walked towards the kitchen to make a coffee for me when I heard few girls in the lounge talking about rogues’ presence around the border. Caleb and all are at the border, I learned from them, it hurt, I should have known about this from my mate. Sighing I entered the kitchen to beat the coffee for me.

"That night at the great castle, the storm lord and the knight of skulls and kisses each swore they would unmask him, and the king himself urged men to challenge him, declaring that the face behind that helm was no friend of his. But the next morning, when the heralds blew their trumpets and the king took his seat, only two champions appeared. The Knight of the Laughing Tree had vanished. The king was wroth, and even sent his son the dragon prince to seek the man, but all they ever found was his painted shield, hanging abandoned in a tree. It was the dragon prince who won that tourney in the end." "Oh." Bran thought about the tale awhile. "That was a good story. But it should have been the t

Somebody whom I should be able to trust with my life and yet respect? A maid now came out practically at once, sliding rocket-like over the hall. She curtly bowed, then spoke. Your Highness, the knight is called and is waiting on you. I breathed deeply and got myself straight as Rowan leaned his head. The seconds passed, and with each stroke of the clock they seemed immeasurably long. Then, the door opened.

Kent smiled. He rushed towards the western gate with the New Kingdom forces pushing hard upon the gate Knight captain Fenrir and the remaining shielders made their stand inside the shattered gate. With shields locked and stance firm, the knights of the Ironwolves gave no quarter against the enemy while the marines provided cover for their knight companions. Kent jumped into the enemy battlelines clearing the path buying them time to fortify the gate, with tooth, nail, blade, and claw. The knight fought with precision and fury in each strike he alone pushed the enemy back reaching the Floran hills. Despite being surrounded the knight was never surrounded but the enemy was hopelessly outmatche

Every step, every strike, every dodge was calculated. He spotted the first wave of Knights advancing, their armor gleaming in the sunlight. His R8 brothers were scattered behind him, forming defensive flanks, snarling and baring teeth as the shapeshifters lunged at the advancing threat. *** From the terraces, some nobles and citizens watched with bated breath.

"Yes, there will be rules. No magic will be allowed, and there will be no killing or maiming. The goal is to prove your strength and skill, not to harm your opponents." The knights nodded, taking in the information. Caleb stood up from his seat. "I expect each of you to represent your kingdom with honor and pride. Train hard, prepare well, and may the best kingdom win." The knights stood up as well, bowing their heads in respect. As they left the room, they could feel the excitement and anticipation building within them. The prospect of the tournament was both thrilling and nerve-wracking, but they were determined to make their kingdom proud.

Malachi’s voice. "Tonight, we hunt the rarest game in the history of the Sanguine Court! The Architect and his Beast have returned to us! The hunt is open! The grand prize to the one who brings me the Muse's heart!" The walls of the vault began to slide upward. "F**k," Kaelor said, his eyes turning a shadowed gold. He grabbed Aradaa’s waist, pulling him back as the first of the Vampire Knights appeared at the end of the hall, their red visors glowing in the dark.

--The Nydisian Kingdom, Eraregord, Royal Academy-- Courtesy of Lucian, who had gone back to the castle two days, he had Llewellyn organize and go through the participants of the tournament, leaving Katherine in Llewellyn's care until he returned. Katherine, however, was partially glad she didn't have to see or speak with Lucian for some time. She walked into the private dining hall that was on a higher floor than the main dining hall.
