"What?!" Queen Fiona stood up in surprise. "How can this be?!" *BANG* *BANG* *BANG*Explosions left and right are heard in the vicinity. The queen stood up in a hurry from her seat and dashed past the vice admiral. "Y-Your majesty?!" The vice admiral was surprised with the sudden movement of the queen. "Please wait."The queen ascended the steps towards the deck. The yelling and screaming of people were being heard more clearly with every step she takes. By the time she reached the deck, she looked around and saw a sea of fire in front of her. "What is happening?!" The queen screamed with the mix of anger and surprise. "This shouldn’t be happening. Our plan was flawless."The vice admiral and the lady in waiting were able to catch up to the queen. They were panting while trying to catch up to her. "Y-You majesty..." The vice admiral was catching his breath. "I-It’s not safe here. We need to leave and lead you to safety." "Tell me first what is happening!" The queen shouted in an
"You dare point your sword at me!" The queen yelled in rage. "What did you expect, a warm welcome?" Ragnar said mockingly. "Well my fire is quite warm, I hope it is to your liking!"Ragnar launched a fire ball attack towards the queen. But it was deflected by a water magic. "Your majesty!" Lucas said while arriving at the scene. "Why are you just arriving now?!" The queen growled. "We are sorry for being late" Luna said arriving just after her brother Lucas. "It’s you two again." Ragnar recognized the two people who just arrived. He wouldn’t forget these two that tried to kidnap Isabella one too many times. "It is an honor for the king of Avalon to remember such a lowly person as me." Lucas said. "How could I just forget the person that tried to abduct my Isabella, not one but two times?" Ragnar smirked coldly. "We have fought each other for a few times. And now you are in my path once again." "We won’t let you hurt our queen!" Luna yelled.The siblings stood in front of the
The queen’s men together with his men are clinging for their lives in the splitting ground. Under them Ragnar can see molten lava flowing calm and steadily. "My queen... help... ahh.ahhhhh." One of the queen’s men shouted. The earth he was holding on gave in and he fell and sank on the molten lava. "Ahh... help me..." The man’s screams seized after the lava swallowed him. "Queen Fiona, are you crazy?!" I looked at her standing at the edge above them. "Your men are falling to their deaths." "They are doing a big sacrifice to ensure your death King Ragnar." The queen smirked. "So just die!"Ragnar saw that this queen is so vicious, even to her own people. He has earth attribute magic but not that powerful. He tried to use it to make protrusions on the sides for the men to cling and climb on. "If you want to live then climb with all your might!" Ragnar yelled.Ragnar’s men did as they were told to, while the queen’s men were at a loss first. "Dammit! I don’t want to die like this!"
[Ragnar’s POV]We have retreated back to where the naval battle was being fought. By the time when we got there, many of the enemy ships were burning. By the time we were on the river’s shore, I saw General Austin coming towards us. "Your majesty, it is good that you are safe." He gave me his salute. "What is the status here?" I asked. "As you can see your majesty, we have won this battle." He said with a smile. "The enemies that have laid down their arms are in the custody of my men." "Good. Be sure to treat the prisoners of war with respect." I said. "I don’t want to hear any maltreatment towards them." I ordered."Yes your majesty." General Austin said and then left. "What is your plan with the Spartan siblings your majesty?" Kyler who was beside me asked.I looked at the two unconscious siblings. "For now you put them in a secure and isolated place. Where you put them, I will leave it up to you." "Yes your majesty." Kyler nodded and told his men on what to do. "Any other ord
[Isabella’s POV]We have just come back from our visit in Duke Monroe’s’ estate. The sun was just setting in the horizon when we got off our carriage. "Big sis, I will be retiring for the night." Elsa curtsied and walked away after we have come inside the palace. "The little princess has to carry a huge burden on her small back." Bob murmured to me while looking at the departing Elsa. "I admire her strength." I said while also looking at Elsa departing. "When I was her age, I was still a coward and didn’t know what to do." I sighed remembering my past. "But you have grown into a strong and independent woman now." Philips who was by my side said to me. "It is thanks to all of you and all my friends that I became strong." I smiled at him. "I will be going to my mother’s quarters. Bob, please inform the kitchen that I will be eating my dinner there with my mother." "Of course your highness." Bob bowed and left to do as I have ordered him. "After escorting me to my mother’s room, y
"Ugghhmm..." I pushed him with all my strength but I cannot overpower him.The feeling of his lips on mine disgusts me to the core. How could he do such a thing to me, his blood related first cousin. And to think he was to be wed to Camila in a few weeks.I remembered the move Ragnar thought me if I was in a tight spot. I used right leg to stomp my healed shoe on Darius’ feet. "Ahh!" Darius groaned in pain but he was still holding my hands and pinning me on the wall. I used my knee to hit him on his groin. "Ughh..."Darius was now kneeling on the floor from my attack. I took this time to lengthen the space between us. "You... how dare you kiss me?!" I shouted in anger while wiping my lips with my hand rigorously. "Heh... hehehe." Darius laughed but was still kneeling on the floor clearly in pain from my attack. "You are really a feisty one. I like that about you." He looked up at me with such intense eyes that made me shiver. "I will never forgive you for what you have done!" I s
"What?!" I abruptly stood up from my chair. "That isn’t possible!" I shouted in frustration. "That is my decision and you cannot do anything about." Darius said with a confident smile. "In two weeks time, you would be my bride and wife."I gripped my hands into fists hard. Darius’ plan was so ridiculous that it was crazy. "Take your seat for now Isabella ." Darius shot me a glare and I couldn’t do anything but to obey. I took my seat with a heavy heart. I decided to stay silent and obedient for now. In two weeks times I won’t be here and so this marriage won’t come through. It is best to not ignite my cousin’s bad mood. It will not benefit us if Darius threw a fit now and make the marriage arrangements earlier than two weeks. "B-But brother, you have promised the king of Wales to marry his other daughter right?" Elsa said with caution. "And I have married her, isn’t that right Camila." Darius threw a smile on Camila’s way. She looked perplexed when the topic now came to her. "S
After what happened with Darius, I made sure that I did not go anywhere without a companion. Philip has been glued by my side ever since then. There were times that we coincidentally bump into Darius in hall ways but so far he didn’t do anything like the last time. ’Oh my! I would have never thought he would do such a thing to you.’ My mother said telepathically. Since Darius arrived in the palace, my mother and I were playing it safe just in case. She maintained her act even when I was in her quarters visiting her. ’I am not sure why he is so obsessed with me.’ I told her. ’It is because of our family’s act of intermarriage. They believe that our magic powers will lessen if our blood were to be mixed with people of not royalty.’ Mother sighed. ’Has he been coming here to visit you?’ I asked. ’Yes. Since he came back, he at least visits me once a day.’ Mother replied. ’Don’t worry, he didn’t do anything to me. He has been very respectful with every visit.’ I felt relieved
