Chapter 70: Chapter 70

Smoke is engulfing them, and all they can see are sparks of fire coming either from the lighted arrows which are direct to kill them or from burning bodies. The oil which is poured on them indeed does miracles as it burns them into ashes.

The cloudy smoke from the burning, skins and bushes around renders their vision more blurred with darkness "Fuck, it smells burnt meat, I can believe this is the smell of our men." Andrew whimpers furiously.

"Dad, we can barely see, I told you this was a bad idea. This attack is the worse decision you've ever taken in your life. I told you to wait and to attack during the day but as usual your stubbornness and impatience has lead us here. Now we are losing a lot of men. We should run back before we all die here." Andrew says furiously. As much as he's father, he hates losing.

"You're distracting me with your soreness. If you can't see you should on your fire and stop whimpering like a child." the King yells as he fights. While answering his son, his opponent's sword slightly cuts his waist. Yet, he keeps fighting until he kills him and this is when he starts feeling the pains.

"Push, push. Keep pushing." the King screams to his men, and they push. He hopes to pave a way to run straight to the palace and kill the King.

"Arrows!" Andrew screams in his turn and the men in the middle of the circle sent out arrows which kills a few men in the opposite clan. This was was the only circle left, so with all their strength, they try to maintain it.

As well as their arrows kill many of King demon's men. "Sheild" the King screams. Arrows from the Terra kingdom also kills many of King Demons men, and worst they have lighted arrows.

As the fight goes on, the circle scattered and they all dissociate into the crowd, fighting. Blood sprinkling all over. Some of the blood splashes on their faces with a little entering their mouths.

Andrews smiles happily as the blood sprinkles on his face. He enjoys it.

An arrow from nowhere Pierce the King on his laps, he breaks the top of the arrow and he keeps fighting. Sword wounds Andrew the stomach and his swords fall to the ground.

"Dad, we have to leave!" Andrew screams in pains.

"Everyone should retrieve back to the borders. Everyone" Andrew screams and the trumpet is blown. King Demon feels pains, not only because on his injuries but because his dignity took a big cut as he heard the trumpet blowing. This was his end...

What an embarrassment for the almighty King Demon to give up on a fight after all the turmoil he made. So all this in vain?... He feels so pathetic and indeed it is.

"The sound of victory. They are retrieving back to the pit they came from. Good!. Hahahaha... My new Army is invincible and everyone has to know about this. They ought to fear as much as they feared King Demon and more because he's now the past and I'm the present and the future. All this kingdoms have no idea of what is awaiting them..." Alfred laughs out malicious. He feels invincible.

"Now, King Demons I will be coming for your kingdom pretty soon" he claps his hand in joy. He moved back to the hall. No music is playing, the palace is like a mortuary and everyone is bored and afraid.

"Why is there is no music, why is everyone not rejoicing. Damn, instrumentalists play your instrument and give us good melody" he screams happily as he enters the hall practically jumping on his two feet.

"Is he crazy? There is a war outside and we know nothing about the status of our king and this stranger wants us to rejoice?. I told the King this marriage is a mascarade and I'm strongly against it" says the king's cousin, Samuel and a few men murmured amongst themselves.

While somewhere eager to celebrate, especially King Alfred's invitees.

"Eat and drink as much as you want, we have won the battle. Demons and his men are running away cowardly. I always knew that man had no balls in between his legs" King Alfred slurs "Hahaha... Sorry for my language... Haha..." he says.

They happily scream as he announces their victory. The instrumentalists started playing a good song. They started eating and dancing.

While Bethany was sick and all this gave her repulsion. Old Lady Mae is sicker. She wishes she could jump on Alfred's neck and press the life out of him while spitting out all that she knows.

A few minutes later, a few men with torn dresses coated with blood with weary faces sadly moves into the hall with a corpse. It was that of their King. Bethany and Mae immediately rushes to the corpse crying..

"Whosoever did this to my father will pay with his own life and in order circumstances. I promise you this" Bethany furiously utters. She's devastated and all her world is shattered.

"Indeed, King Demons will pay for this," says King Alfred, he cuddles her shoulder. "Don't you ever dare touch me, Evil man. You're the cause of all this" she runs away.

He feels so embarrassed. Then he discretely waves at his son to follow her. Gryphon rolls his eyes wearily. Initially, he wanted to follow her but he thought about giving her space to grief so he restricted himself and stayed back. Now his father had to add on top. He follows her against his will and it's damn annoying.

"Open the door. Let's discuss it together, I can keep you company." he hits the door. He doesn't know why but he feels pain as he hears her cry.

"Go away, I know it's your father that is sending you. You and your family should leave my father's Palace" she screams in agony. She's posted at one corner of the room. While he seats by the door.

"It's true my father asked me to follow you but trust me I'm happy to be here. Far away from the noise, and from him, especially" he says as he leans on the door. While she moves closer to the door and she seats near it as he speaks.

He continues "I don't even know how you feel right now and I might certainly never understand your pains because even if my father happens to die right now as we're speaking I don't know if I will feel so much pain as you do. I will certainly feel relief" he slowly speaks his mind.

"Are you saying the truth?" she asks with a soft voice naive voice. "Yes," He says. She immediately opens the door and pull him inside the room locking the door behind them

"I'm so sorry for your loss. I saw close you where with your fath..." she began to kiss him before he could end his speech. A very long speech which he had prepared in his mine.

King Alfred has been hiding and listening to them. He moves closer to the door with a malicious grin on his face. He places his hears on the door keenly "Aaaaahhh... Asssshhhh... Ah, a, a..." he hears moans sounds "Good, son" and he moves away.

"I think he's gone. I can't feel his scent anymore. You can stop, you don't have to fake it anymore. Thank you for this" Gryphon says "Finally, I was already feeling ridiculous" Bethany says.

"I hope you will start trusting me now. We can be two against my father," he claims.

"I'm young but not stupid. You have to do more than this for me to trust you. A good son like you will always follow his father's instructions. Unfortunately, for me, I'm married to dad's son" she slurs, moves out of him.

They were standing in the middle of the room.

He clenches her arm "Not always, not at the risk and perish of my family. Now you are my family and you will understand this with time. For now I won't precipitate you so you can take all you're the time, you need. I want us to know ourselves, trust each other, appreciate each other before anything happens. I want to be sure I can trust you even when the whole world world will be against me. Vice versa" he looks at her straight into her eyes, lowly caressing her noise with his.

She closed her eyes as he spoke, for a few seconds she imagined a perfect a world with only two of them living a wonderful love story and she smiled deep within her soul. Then boom, this image pops into her mind and she flinches out of his grips "Words, you have to do it"

"I will" he perks her on her jaw. She moves to bed while he takes off his dresses only his little down is left, a sort of pantie and he moves to the bed.

"You certainly no lay by md" she frowns. "I promise I won't" he says. "Oh, moon god, save me from all this torture" she cries and he comfortably lays in bed.

"You have to take of your dresses if you want my father to believe this. I'm sure first thing tomorrow morning he will be knocking at this door. If at all he doesn't have the spare keys already" he says.

She hesitated, he insists. Later she takes of all her dresses but she stays white transparent gown which was under her main gown. This transparent gown relieves all her body.

Gryphon can't help but stare at her beautiful body, her tiits are sizable and very round. He instantly gets hard. He's craving her but what can he do. She immediately moves under the big fur blanket and covers her body.

They are both facing the ceiling.

"What about the kiss, you want to claim that you didn't mean it?" he asks. He's already hard and his mind gets nasty.

"Yes!. And for your information, I'm not claiming. It is simply how I feel" she gets agitated.

"And what did you or do you feel?" he asks and she hits her face in dismay "Nothing," she says as she turns and faces the wall "Good night" she exclaims.

"Good night my wife!" he says with a huge nasty smile on his face as he shut his eyes and sees her naked body.
