Blood and Darkness Chapter 66: On Her Side
'You mean you already have several masters before me?''No. You are my master for my whole life time. Once I'm not a dragon spirit anymore and can show myself physically, I will be tied to you in life and death, which means that if you die, I will die as well.'I sighed in relief. 'Thank the Heavens you are still a dragon spirit. I don't want you to die because of me, you know that. Raja, if ever I will die today, I do hope that you would still remember me in your next life even if you already have another master.''I won't let you die, my lady,' he said in a hard, velvety voice.I smiled bitterly. 'If this is my fate, none of us can do about it, Raja. I don't want to cause further chaos in this kingdom so it is better that I'm gone.'He growled. 'And you will just give up like that? What about your main goal? What about your father? You still need to find him. You still need to know the truth behind your identity. You still need to know why your mother never told you anything about y
Blood and Darkness Chapter 67: Till We Meet Again
"I'm sorry if we were a bit late," Demitri whispered solemnly. "I don't know what would I do if..." he trailed off as though he can't say the words like saying it will pain him."Raja was there. He saved me. And you did, too." Then I looked at the three princes. "You all saved me. I don't think a simple thank you is enough to express how grateful I am to all of you.""You are already a family to us, Ophelia. And aside that we believe you are not capable of doing that, we also don't want our father to commit a mistake that he would regret," Prince David said."Well, anyway, do you know where is your dragon? I'm wondering," Prince Evan went out of the topic. "He is here." I smiled and pointed my necklace."Oh, right! I remember something I have read. Dragon summoners have dragon necklaces. So that must be it," Prince Evan said."You should eat now to fully regain your energy," Demitri said, still holding my hand like he was holding his fragile life.'It is the last day, my lady,' Raja
Blood and Darkness Chapter 68: Awakened
The wind blew as the old lady chanted words I'm not familiar with while holding the magical mirror. All were silent, waiting for the truth to prevail.Demitri went beside me and glanced at Raja. Although it was obvious that he has questions in mind, he didn't say anything and just held my hand as we faced together the mirror of the past."Oh, magical mirror of the past, posession of the great Queen Lynea of the ancient witch empire, grant us our wish! Show us who were the culprits behind the poisoning of Solterra's Queen Romina!" the old lady said while eyes were closed.All were astounded when the next moment, the real event was shown. First in the sequence of events shown was Lady Lilian giving Monroe Levitsky two small black bottles with black lid, exactly the same as the one found in my bedroom. Next shown was Matt Monroe sneeking to my room and putting the bottle on my belongings. The townspeople and the king especially, looked very shocked of what they have seen. They all knew t
Blood and Darkness Chapter 69: Poisonous Incense
"Are you with anyone, perhaps?""No. I was alone.""Wait. Let me help you a bit with your wound," I said. I have a little knowledge about aiding someone so I did what I know. I tore a little part of my dress and wrapped it on her wound to stop it from bleeding."I was also attacked by the bandits and my carriage was ruined. I don't know what we should do about this, but I guess we are left with no choice but to walk and try to seek for help along the way. Let's just hope that there are other travelers that will pass by who could help us, or there are people living nearby.""All right," she said and slowly stood even she was wincing in pain."Uh, you can hold my arm for support. Are you sure you can walk?"'"I think I can," she said and held my elbow.'What way should we go?' I asked Raja in my mind.'West,' Raja said.We went to my carriage first so I could get a few of my things before we walked to the west."In what kingdom are you from?" the lady asked. "I'm Lucia, by the way.""I

'You know what, even if I hate you for throwing your life like this, I still pity your situation and I can't help but be worried. You are back to being alone again,' Raja said while we are in the running coach far away from the kingdom of Solterra.His Majesty helped me to leave the palace without anyone knowing. He gave me a coach and many food so I have something to eat along my journey. He may be had me almost killed, but he has a golden heart willing to help. I'm very thankful to the king.'Who says I'm alone? I'm not alone, Raja. I have you,' I said.'How heart fluttering that is, my lady.''Indeed?''Indeed.'I shook my head and smiled bitterly. If this is my fate, then who am I to change it? I should just stop thinking about Demitri and Solterra. If I would train myself to care less about all that happened there, it would be less painful to me. After all, starting from now, I could never taste that kind of home again. I have to face it. To fully accept no matter how painful it

I laughed and sprayed him with water again. I swam away but at the speed of his movement he immediately caught up with me. We're near the coast, enjoying the seawater with the bright moon watching us from above."You don't play fair!"He just chuckled and hold my waist."I don't play fair when it comes to you."I hooked my arm around his neck. With my fingers, I traced the droplets of waters from his neck down to his chest. He followed with a look what I was doing."What are you thinking? Hmm?"He pulled me closer. Our bodies stuck together under the water. He rested his nose in my temple and caressed my back. The breath is calm."I just wonder ... will the time come when Devon will apologize to me?""Only time can tell, baby."I sighed."Don't think too much. And even if she will apologize, I'll never forgive her. I can't forgive her even if you're her twin. She inflicted you so much pain. She almost killed you many times. I'm sorry , but I prefer her rotting in jail. ""It's not tha
Blood and Darkness Chapter 72: Happiest
I can feel someone holding my hand firmly. That was the first thing I noticed when the spirit woke up. So even though my eyelids were heavy, I tried to open them. I want to confirm that it's him. I want to make sure I'm alive and not just fantasizing about everything.I saw the white ceiling as I opened my eyes. I blinked several times and checked my breathing. True, I'm still alive."Desire ..."I looked to the side. There, I saw him. His face was full of concern. He's still wearing his suit. But you are hardly contaminated. Maybe when entering the burning house. True, he came to save me. To fulfill his promise of protecting me and our child."Are you okay? Are you in pain? Wait, I'll call the doctor. You need to be checked again." He stood up, but I hold his hand.I shook."Please ... stay."He sat down again. He caressed my face. His eyes are filled with genuine care and concern. He put a kiss on my cheek. I closed my eyes for a moment to feel the warmth from his kiss.I really tho
Blood and Darkness Chapter 73: Life is Never Fair
A solemn, sweet melody from the citharas enveloped the palace. One signal from the chamberlain and I glided through the silk curtains, toward the grandiose hall.Poise. Calmness. Confidence.Three things I've learned from the mistress of imperial performers. The years of practice taught me the perfect stance, moves, and all the gracefulness I needed.Dancing for the royal court's entertainment has been my life ever since I reached puberty. I've long accepted the life fate had offered me. This is my fate. To be a slave, to be caged in this palace forever.The Kingdom of Eravia is where the mages rule. It was where my mother lived throughout her life. She was also one of those less fortunate people who was born as a slave, but not as unfortunate as the commoners, for she was a royal entertainer with imperial privileges. But to me, it wasn't privileges. All those years, I couldn't bring myself to enjoy whatever the palace could offer me. It felt as though I was always chained, someone wh
