Chapter 26
Elika’s eyes flickered as she forced her mind away from the pain, wheezing slightly.
Michael walked towards them his tone soft and welcoming; though it wasn’t towards the princess. “I also have to tell you that the girl has showed more potential, she has a strange ability to control the wind it seems.”
Darkous smiled, turning towards the princess as she cowered; fearful of the next blows. “Tell me about this power princess.”
Elika continued to wheeze, her voice barley audible. “I don’t have the power to control the wind. It was just that the wind was trying to help me escape.”
The dark lord tilted his head to the side, “What do you mean girl? I have never heard of such a thing.”
The princess sighed heavily, wincing as a deep and searing pain shot through her chest. How could she explain it to them without revealing her power?
“If you do not tell me within the next three

Meanwhile down in the basement...Elika had fallen asleep with her head on her knees, the tears that had fallen from her eyes as she thought of her mother and brother’s death still lingering on her cheeks. She stirred slightly, stretching as she woke, every muscle in her petite form aching. She shouldn’t have fallen asleep in the corner of the room behind the boxes, but she was too terrified to move; the voices that came from the living room drifting down towards her ears. She sighed softly, her small hiding place concealing her from the basement steps, the light having gone out hours before. What was she going to do now Darkous knew of her ability? What could she do other than obey him? Her mind swelling with the realisation that she would never be anything but a prisoner, her life forever in someone else’s hands.The princess froze suddenly, fear rising in her chest as the sound of someone approaching echoed down the basements steps; her pulse incre

Elika once again bit her bottom lip, attempting to find something to say; or ask. She spoke with hesitation, fearful of how the feral immortal would react when she voiced her questions. “Erm ... How did you and Darkous meet?” “Well that story, little girl; is one I will never forget. I was stranded on an uncharted dimension, living off animals; as well as living with the dirty fools. I had been living there for centuries. All of a sudden, I heard a loud bang; causing the whole pack to scatter. I didn’t know what to do, so I just stood there.” He paused, the memory of how they met still fresh in his mind. The princess slowly slid down the wall, crossing her legs beneath her as she listened to Dorian tell the story of how he met the dark lord. “That was when Darkous appeared. He gave me food. But then a large army began invading the dimension, saying that they wished to purify the lands. Darkous and I fought them all off, ripping each one to shreds. He is my best and only frie

Elika pulled her power back, her sudden ability fading as quickly as it had appeared.“What the fuck were you thinking? What happened?” The dark lord questioned, his tone filled with confusion and slight concern.“I ...” The princess stammered, attempting to understand what she had done as her eyes shifted between the three men.“What were you trying to accomplish?” Michael asked, grasping her wrist as he checked her vitals.Elika forced a small smile, turning towards the feral man as he stared down at her in confusion. She took a long breath, wincing as the pain continued to shoot through her chest. “Your mother and little sister miss you...”“How do you know?” The animal-like immortal queried, his demonic yellow eyes coated in curiosity as it mixed with the confusion.“Because ... Because I was in her mind...” She muttered, briefly closing her eyes as she attempted to

Elika breathed deeply, erupting into a fit of coughing. She placed a hand over her chest as she panted, glancing towards Michael as she attempted to come up with an excuse. The princess sighed, her un-comfort rising as no one had ever seen her in such a state other than her mother. Before she had time to come up with an answer, her uncle’s comrade growled; leaning closer to the tub.“Make sure you do not lie to me, princess. Tell me why you were in the water for so long.” Michael commanded, tapping his fingers on the tiled floor.The princess lowered her eyes to the towel she held around her exposed body, biting her lip as she spoke; her voice soft and low. “I ... I was upset and ... I went under the water to calm myself ... I don’t think that I was under for long...”“You were underwater for well over an hour; I came in around then and thought you had run. But, both Joey and Goodwin never saw you leave. Neither did Robe

She cried out in pain as she violently smashed into the carpet, her head bouncing off the ground.“Have you seen Darkous?” Michael asked, glancing between Joey and Goodwin.The Corporal nodded, “Yeah, he’s gone to his study. I wouldn’t disturb him if it isn’t important.”Michael snarled slightly, turning away from Goodwin as he grabbed the princess by her hair; dragging her from the ground. She stumbled as he picked up his pace, barbarically tugging her back up the stairs by her hair. She whimpered as her scalp burned, her hair still damp from the bath. This time, her uncle’s comrade stopped on the third floor launching her into the ground as he stepped of the spiralling staircase. Giving her no time to recover, he grasped her wrist; pulling her along the floor. Elika fought to rise back to her feet, tripping over the large dress.Michael stooped outside a deep oak door, knocking twice before entering as the

“Michael, look at her.” Darkous said, commandingly; taking a step back.Elika yelped in surprise as Michael’s grip tightened before he finally released her, moving to stand beside the dark lord. She took a hesitant step back as his face also registered shock; his raven black eyes coated in confusion. He reached out to grab her wrist as she continued to back away, tugging her forward. She gulped, not knowing what was wrong as they stared. Her father had always said that her face resembled an abomination, ordering that she always cover it with the powder her mother forced her into wearing. Is that what they were staring at? The princess was unable to hide her sorrow, knowing that her face was bare and completely on show. If she were at home, her father would punish her. But there, as a prisoner of the dark lord; he never supplied her with anything to powder her face. To hide her features.“She looks like your mother ... But how can that be possibl
A God’s Tale Chapter 33
The psychopathic lord slowly sat in his chair, watching as the little princess remained silent. Her shoulders shook as she cried, her head placed gently onto her knees in sorrow. He leaned back in the leather seat, waiting to see if she would speak. When the silence stretched out, he sighed deeply; turning to glance down at the mountain of paper work on his desk. At this rate he would never get anything done, especially with the girl sobbing so loudly. Darkous was always left with all the work, his brother Hades useless with the political side of ruling hell. When the psychopathic lord came to rule over this dimension with his brother, he never expected the amount of paper work involved. And yet, he basked in knowing that the people could do nothing without his approval; especially when it came to leaving through one of the many portals situated around the capital city. Hades remained the king while Darkous was the prince; though that was the way the psychopathic lord liked it. He d
