Alex remains seated, still confused as to why Damon will lose a match to such a person. I still find it hard to believe that Damon of all people would lose such an important duel with a man like Norman. How would he do such a thing without thinking about Ava's safety. " our aim is the main palace my lord" one of his loyal men mumbled behind him "We are going to face the main battle in three days" " Will Damon be present? " " No my lord, I heard he has moved to lord Jaden's palace and he is engaged to Princess Vila " Nodding my head I mutter " he lost his kingdom and now, his next plan is to take over another? Isn't that plan absurd, Damon can't and will never rule the country" "Although, people said it's just rumored, my lord" " I doubt it " Before I could say more Vince rushed into the room breathing heavily, standing to my feet I gave him a curious gaze " What got you running like someone who just saw a ghost " " I have news, good and bad" Vince tried catching his breath and I
Ava frowned the moment she watched Lara walk out of the garden after having her little chat with Damon for the first time. She wanted to know more about Lara but not to spend her entire day here " Brooklyn " Ava whispered late at night when Lara was already asleep. " what is it Ava" the voice mumbled in her head "Why call my name mistress " " I do not plan to spend all the day with her till her murder" Looking at a sleeping Lara I frown " I find this annoying that Damon loved her, and almost married her too " "But I don't understand why you would be jealous of her, she is you, mistress " " I don't care, Brooklyn, show me what I need to know, show me what is important not how she fell for my Damon " " Hmm, do I smell jealousy " " yes you do Brooklyn, so take me out of here " " as you wish " All it took was for me to blink, the environment changed and what I saw was Lara with Alex, she looked angry "What are you doing Alex, I see you only as a friend " I think he was professing h
"You're sorry? Really?" Damon watched how she cleaned her tears and then nodded" Please leave me alone I need some time to think, think about everything that has happened " " ava" "please Damon, please " she shot me a completely different look, a look I had never seen in those beautiful eyes of hers before "It doesn't matter what I do or say right now, either way, I am confined to you, you did that without my consent, now I wish you leave me alone, can't you give me this one wish?" " I can " nodding my head. I turned around and then left, shutting the room door. I had no idea what to do next, where to be or stay "What do I do now, I can't lose her. I just can't, I'll die. " I mumble the moment I feel a presence at my side, I lean on the door then bow my head in regret " I have completely ruined my chance of having a happy life with the woman I love " " I suppose you knew this would happen when she found out?" Sebastian asks and I nod my head before falling and closing my eyes " Why
The next day, Ava got out of bed only to find it empty. The sound of the water running made her understand that he was in the bathroom. Ava's face remains flushed as the incident of last night replayed in her memory. Last night was amazing but she forgot that Brooklyn was in the bedroom. And that only made her blush even more. " Ava, are you okay, you look like a tomato right now " Damon stepped out of the bathroom naked, she quickly used the blanket and covered the book, she could still hear but couldn't see "You're red, tell me, what dirty thoughts are you sheltering in that silly head of yours that's making you blush this much " Clearing my throat I try my best not to look down, my gaze remains on his face as water drops from his hair "It's nothing Damon, and my head is not filled with silly things " Smiling I stand to my feet " Do you want me to help you? " " Help me with what?" Not knowing what to say I bit my lower lip while he chuckled "So silly, do you ever change ava" he put
"Where is my lady?" Sebastian asks"The dark forest" I replied. The journey to the dark forest wasn't as long as I imagined it would be. We arrived there just before sunset. I just hope we get what we came here for. Damon jumps off the horse, and Grant is found standing outside the dark forest " You guys look like shit " Damon mumbles. I watch them exhale, this only means that they failed in striking the deal, I seriously don't have time for this failure "You didn't do it right, did you? " " Those creatures almost ate us, you should be happy we came out alive " Chase yells, " I think I'm losing my mind, they were so hideous, I felt like throwing up "Ava rushed to Chase, trying to calm him down. ••••Damon was quiet and then his gaze moved to Grant who for the first time didn't smile, he looked confused and thought "Speak Grant" " I fear this is a serious issue, I will need time alone with you " Nodding my head we move far away from the others "You know the queen of the ghouls? Bert
" I will do this for you but I ask for one simple thing, the kingdom you speak of can be done by me" she smiled," I ask only for a night with you Damon " " What!! " Ava and I mumble at the same time. I wasn't surprised though, I expected that from her "You must be joking" I chuckled but she looked at me frowning. "I am not Damon " she smiled " I want you buried in me once again, it's been centuries and I don't care if your lover joins… makes it more fun. Am I right?" "You must be out of your mind, for you to think that I would let that happen" Ava growls "I didn't say anything wrong, did I? I only wish to have a memorable night with him and I also suggested that we turn it into a threesome. Isn't that generous enough?" She just kept on spewing rubbish from that stupid mouth of hers. Her words rang in my head, how could this ugly being say such a thing to my man and in my presence? Asking a man for such lewd actions and isn't even ashamed by it… some women have lost it. They have n
" what should it be about " " telling them that their armies are no longer needed, that their help is as useless as their kingdom "I grin" Norman won't know what hit him till it does " "Now, go and make sure you do as I have said" I commanded. "Grant and Chase will both be going to the Southern empire while Sebastian and Travis will head to the Western empire. I want this letter to be delivered as soon as possible" "You don't have to worry about a single thing, we'll take care of it. Go on and have some fun with your girl, 'cause you'll need to…" Grant was saying before I cut him off. "She's not my girl but my wife and I don't remember seeking your advice on how to take care of my woman. Now go" "Relax dude, no one's trying to claim her here. She's all yours" Chase chuckled "Speak for yourself." Travis groaned and I didn't quite get the hang of what he meant. Maybe he's just being protective of her cause she looks like Lara. •••• Ava just watches Damon carefully as they approac
" you look beautiful tonight, you're glowing " she frowns "Trust me, Ava, you are amazing " whispering the last part to her ears I smile when she drops the book. " and daddy likes it " mumbling. I noticed how her heartbeat increased. " you're dodging the question, Damon. Stop it" "I am not "Pushing her slightly, she fell to the floor and I lay between her legs, my hands holding my weight from crushing her "You do remember what you said you wish to do to me right " "I don't, please remind me" she answered, trying to avoid eye contact with me."Don't play dumb with me ava, I know you know exactly what I am talking about" Her face reddened as she blushed " I was only joking, that wasn't real you know "Frowning I withdrew and she sat up gently " Are you mad at me?" "No, I'm not "Running my hands through my hair, I avert my gaze from her to the burning fire "I am just disappointed that's all" " wait… you wanted... Is that bad?" She stutters a little but that didn't make me turn my at
