Chapter 71
Ducan's p.o.v I walked into the throne room with Eleanor next to me. The generals all stood looking at us. Some seemed in shock while some looked calm. The ancient witch stood on the left side of my throne as usual and Ose on the right. As I approached them, they gave me a bow and then stood upright. "My wife will be joining this meeting, so shall we begin," I said when I sat on the throne. A few murmurs and gasps immediately broke out. "Eleanor," I called softly then extended my hand to her. There was only one throne and there were no chairs to sit on. The meeting was going to take hours unless one of the generals had a great plan and strategy. I didn't want her to stand because she was going to be tired. She hesitated but took my hand and moved closer. "Sit," I whispered softly. She looked at me with a deep frown and then glanced behind her. "I don't think they want me here." She whispered under her breath. I was sure everyone in the room had heard because we all had a s

Zara's p.o.v I stood glaring at Edith who was trying her best to ignore me. "Can you stop glaring at me?" She asked in a small voice. "No, if you feel uncomfortable then feel free to disappear from my sight," I answered coldly. "You are mean." She yelled. I was about to respond but held back when the sound of the door opening reached my ears. I quickly turned with a rapid beating heart waiting to see if it was the Mistress. When she walked in I smiled at her. "Edith, give us some privacy. I'll call you if I need something." She ordered when she stood a bit further away from me. "Okay," Edith whispered then disappeared. "Mistress, is something wrong?" I asked in concern. She looked at me from head to toe then walked past me without a word and went to sit behind her desk. I clenched my hands in fists and huffed silently. I couldn't figure out why I was being treated like this! She was acting mostly like Edith. It's as if I was invisible to them! Couldn't she see that I was c

Eleanor's p.o.v I looked at the sword in my hand and then at Ducan who was asleep on the bed. "You were tired huh," I whispered softly to him. It was shocking when he told me he wanted to sleep because he felt tired. I thought he never slept being that every time I woke up he was either not in bed or looking at me behind his desk. I stood up and touched my ponytail with my free hand while looking at my robe. Furthermore, I needed an outfit change immediately. Not only that, but I wanted something I could train and move freely in. "If I was to call the twin demon fairies as Ducan does, would they appear before me, or would another demon fairy answer to me?" I asked myself silently. "There was no harm in trying because now things were different," I answered myself then took a deep breath and released it. "Serve me," I said seriously. When the twin demon fairies appeared before me, I smiled happily. "My queen." They greeted me together with a bow. "I require an outfit I can tra

Eleanor's p.o.v "Put more strength into your fist Eleanor and your legs shouldn't be that wide apart!" Clair instructed loudly from afar as the ladies giggled softly. The kind Clair who seemed friendly and talkative was no longer present, she was replaced by a cold, serious, scary Clair. She wanted no imperfections and every time I made a mistake she gave me the death glare. Most ladies were unbothered by that but I was. "I'm doing my best," I muttered under my breath. I was feeling tired and thirsty, my muscles were aching because it had been so long since I had practiced. For two hours we had been training non-stop and the ladies were sweating badly. Unlike them, I was skilled with a weapon, not in arm-to-arm combat that's why I was struggling. "Here Eleanor." The lady opposite me who was my training opponent whispered then leaned forward and touched my thigh. "This leg should move slightly forward while the other one backward." She instructed. "Thank you," I whispered bac

Eleanor's p.o.v I watched seriously as Clair ran towards him with her sword raised high, when she reached where he was she struck, but Ducan moved at a quick pace standing behind her and hitting her back with the back of his sword. She stumbled but balanced and turned to look at him. "Again." He called out. She ran towards him and swung her sword at him. I widened my eyes in shock when he missed the sword by leaning backward. She raised the sword in a fast motion and swung it at him again immediately after he had stood upright. Ducan raised his sword in an instant, meeting hers. She glared at him then raised her sword again and thrust her hand forward. Ducan turned to his right in a quick motion and pointed the tip of his sword at her heart. "You would be dead right now." He said loudly. "Talk less." She screamed with a heavy breath then attacked him by jumping in mid air with a loud scream. Ducan raised his sword and it collided with hers. She landed on the ground and threw

Zara's p.o.v "No, that's impossible!" She exclaimed. I understood her reaction because no one in their right mind would easily accept it when I was ten years older than they had left me months ago. "It's me, Eleanor, you can ask me any question and I will truthfully answer," I said seriously. "You are not my brother and I won't stand here and have you manipulate me. Ducan, I don't want to be here." She said strongly as the demon king smirked. A minute ago he looked like he was getting upset, but now he was enjoying her denial. He wanted her to reject me, I could see it in his eyes. "Ancient witch, you heard my wife. She no longer wants to be here, so we will take our leave." He said, then linked his hand to hers. "Let's go, my heart." He whispered as I glared at him. "You hate the color pink and love the color black. You like singing while collecting herbs, and you are bad at acting. You rarely react whenever mother slaps you because you are rather used to her outbursts and tan

Victor's p.o.v I was silently counting numbers knowing today was the day I was going to be given food. I had no idea who or what brought me food and water in my cell. All I knew was that they had a kind heart because if a demon was in my position in the human territory they could have been slaughtered by now. If by chance they were still alive they would have been starved to death. But that wasn't my case. Everyday food appeared in my cell once a day with a glass of water. At first, I refused to eat thinking it was poisonous, but as days went on it became clear to me, either way, I was going to die, so I might as well try to eat. The food I was given looked rather disturbing because it was sticky soup mixed with a piece of bread, but once it was in my mouth it tasted a lot better. I quickly finished eating and drinking water with only one thing on my mind, my death. The whole night I waited for my death, but surprisingly I survived. When the food was brought in the next day I ate an

Ducan's p.o.v "Can I join you?' I asked Eleanor softly. She was bathing in the pool with her back towards me while I sat on the bed watching. "I swear I won't do a thing, I'll just look," I said then frowned and stood up when I felt someone's presence in the room. "You can bathe immediately after I finish." She answered. "Yeah, that sounds awesome," I said then looked around. "Whoever you are, meet me in the throne room right now," I whispered seriously. "What?" She asked. "Nothing my heart, I just want to step out for a few minutes. I will be back." I answered, then went out and walked to the throne room. Immediately I entered I found the two demon fairies standing near the throne. I went to my throne and sat down looking at them seriously. "What is so important that you had to come into my chamber without being summoned?" I asked. "Master." They called together and then gave a bow. "Speak! What is so important, is it the female warriors, did something happen to them?. Is

Eleanor's p.o.v"So I have to shed tears of joy on the map?" I asked for the second time."Yes. That's the only way to pinpoint where the sword is." He answered.I kept quiet thinking of all the sad times I cried in demon territory."Eleanor." He called softly as I blinked back the forming tears."I have a lot of bad memories here," I whispered, honestly."I know, that's why I won't ask you to do it by force. Even without the sword, we will do our best to fight back." He said softly then smiled."Okay," I murmured.He linked his hand to mine and inhaled deeply.We immediately disappeared and appeared in our bedchamber."I'll take a bath, you can just sit there and wait for me." He said then began disrobing himself."I want to, but I have to talk to Clair about something." I lied."Alright then, you can go. Just don't take long to return." He said then walked to the pool naked.I swallowed hard and turned walking out of the room.I wasn't going to sit down and keep on admiring or lusti

Chapter 80
Victor's p.o.v I was in shock as I walked through the passage without chains on my wrist. I looked at the twin demon fairies and then focused ahead. I had chased them away when I asked them not to watch me as I ate, that's what I thought. When they came back I was surprised. "Did you forget something?" That's what I asked them once they were in front of me. They silently removed my chains with their magic and asked me to follow them. My heart was rapidly beating, but I wasn't scared of them at all because if I was going to be killed, they didn't need to get rid of my chains. They were either taking me to face the demon king to answer for what I had done to one of his warriors, or they were taking me amid the generals or council if they had any, so I could be given proper punishment. When we reached two large doors, they instantly opened by themselves. The twins moved forward while I stood still looking carefully ahead. There was a passage and a turn in front of us. Besides that
