Knight Oath Novels & Stories

The blood oath was a bond among people, who swear their loyalty and confraternity to each other, connecting them through their blood. The bond allowed the tied ones to communicate through the mental conversations. I was going to be tied to the bond that all the soldiers, and guards share with the royal family.

It was a completely different thing to execute it; years of training with Bradley told me that. “Next, the triplets need to pledge their Guardian Knight oath to you and then we need to prepare for your shift. We have almost two weeks until your birthday and because of Hades awakening, we need to be as far away from this pack as possible when it happens. If not, they will know who you are and they will stop at nothing to get to you,” Bradley said, his game face also in place after seeing I wasn’t on the verge of an emotional breakdown anymore. Turning to everyone, I squared my shoulders exuding confidence and said, “All right, boys, let's do this.”

He swung the blade in a circular flourish and slid it back into its sheath expertly. The Knights on the platform, as well as those gathered nearby, broke into applause. Each new Knight was presented with armor and a Khortaal. They each drew their new blade, raising them in salute toward the Dragon. “Black Knights!” boomed Ghaeron, “You are now the sword that defends Edon. The steel that protects the innocent, and banishes the wicked.”

I need the soldiers in case other kingdoms try to takeover. “Fine. First swear to me, on your armor the loyalty.”, he smirks kneeling before me. His sword drawn out at my feet, “I swear to the armor, to the sword that I hold. I will hold on to your plan. Me or the army under me, won't kill a single man of yours, and once you kill King Benjamin, I sign my fidelity to you.”, I tap on his shoulder accepting his loyalty. The oath of loyalty is one of the strongest any warrior can hold, nobody knows if it is right or wrong, all I know is they would be cursed to die with their own sword if they break the promise.

It curled it's hand up in a fist, dug it's nails through and let blood drop. Andreas exhaled, knowing what it was doing. "The oath of a demon is maintained by the earth so it has no escape whatsoever, therefore, i hereby pledge my allegiance to you and the king-" Nick's eyes widened. Anthony's mouth fell open. Was this really happening? "-I, Klitanis Odevan, hereby decree that from this day forth, my words and blood, will be forever loyal to Eleanor Starr and King Andreas Louise Montrier." Before Eleanor's eyes, a small part of the earth opened and licked up it's blood. What just happened?

Hmm. Instead of holding a coronation or crowning ceremony, we decided to do it privately here in the office, not wanting to waste time. Using the same dagger I had plunged into my father’s chest, the elder held it in front of me, and I, in turn, held out my palm. He cut it deep; the dark red liquid ran into the gold bowl that held binding herbs. “Prince Kellen, by spilling your blood into the cup of the king's, you take an oath to protect, serve and care for your kingdom and all its subjects. How do you honor your pledge?”

“I have made up my mind. Now I understand why His Majesty sounded so confident at that time. “With my comrades, my superiors, and the patients here as my witnesses, I, Aleman Saavedra, swear to take Lady Morelli as my master,” he continued. “I shall lay my life to protect you when difficulties arise and to respect, honor, and serve you at all times as your loyal subject. This oath shall be effective from this day forward until the final hour of my life.” My jaw dropped when the other knights did the same.

"What do you mean?" She stood, dusting dust from her cloak. "They tricked you. What you two just did was not a trial in the way that you understand. You made an oath." Orion furrowed his brow. "What kind of oath?" "A blood oath, made on emotional sacrifice," she said to me. "The coven compelled you to swear that you'd never harm a witch again. And if either of you ever does, by mistake or by design, the other will be required to kill them."

“I know. My grandfather was a knight, too. Vicente and Raul also told me bits of what their job was like before they were assigned to protect you, my lady. I know it will be hard, and I have made up my mind about it. I’d like to take the oath and return to serve you, if you’ll have me.” Knights swore an oath of loyalty to the people they served, and would even give up their lives to fulfill those oaths if they had to. Compared to being a maid, it was harder to quit, and she would never even entertain the notion if she wasn’t sure that the woman in front of her was worth it. “I haven’t done enough to deserve that kind of devotion.” Lady Elena chuckled. “But since you want to be a knight, I’ll

“You can either get in willingly, or I will force you into the car. The choice is yours.” Her eyes narrowed further, it was clear she wasn’t pleased with me acting the way I was and making a scene by coming to collect her. But she didn’t understand what this place was. What this party was. It was more than just some New Year party. It was a place where the knights made their claims on their future wives. “Tell me why I can’t be here first.” Gritting my teeth, I tried to think of a way to explain it without telling her the truth. I was bound by the oath of the Knighthood just as every other man, and until she became my wife, she wouldn’t know anything.
