Celestials and a Demon prince Chapter 27: The prince maid
Walking along the long corridor that led to prince Edgar's Chambers, his second maid maid Anna held a wooden bucket filled with scents for the prince bath. As she walked, she was a bit uncomfortable as she felt someone behind her but she had not turned to look for once, she tried to ignore her hunch as much as possible but then she stopped hearing the obvious footsteps of someone, she tilted her head not necessarily turning back, her breath was heavy and her fist clenched on the bucket. She took a deep breath to calm her nerves and continued walking increasing her step. She paused again as the footsteps behind her became more obvious, it was certainly not her being paranoid someone was behind her. She took deep breaths before turning gradually. She got startled and at the same time a bit relieved that it wasn't who she expected, then a blend of annoyance and disappointment settled on her face."Surprise!" Came Zora's voice which didn't seem the least excited as the word fell from her m
Celestials and a Demon prince Chapter 28:Threat
Zora couldn't tell what was more shocking to her, the fact that Landon had caught them in such a position or that she found his intrusion into the prince chambers quite disrespectful, what if he was naked? Was this normal for his men, was Landon always like this? She had sensed the personality of Landon just from their encounter last night, she could bet Aegen wouldnt do such, he appeared more calm and reasonable than Landon. No matter how great the news was it still wasn't justifyable to disrespect the prince privacy like that. Only the maids were allowed to enter his chambers to prepare him for the day without permission nothing could explain his rudeness. Edgar had interpreted Zora's expression, it was asking the question why his guard had to barge in on him. He knew Landon too well and the only time he ever went off boundaries was when things were unavoidably serious and the last time he had done something like this was when he brought the news of Elnora's disappearance, now he th
Celestials and a Demon prince Chapter 29: Nothing
It was a huge moment for the royal family seeing Elnora actually awake, Gilbert the royal physician had had sleepless night trying to come up with a natural cure for her even though he strongly believed that it was the work of a witch but king Egbert was way too stubborn to accept the truth. The librarian had also had his fair share of sleepless nights going through the rows of the library reading day and night to come across anything that talked about a stone like the Garmot but all their efforts were in vain. King Egbert felt his soul hurt, words could not describe how much his Celestial daughter meant to him. He lovesd her more than anyone and he was scared to loose her. He was just a day away from bending to the fact that it was indeed the handwork of a witch but he was greeted with the blissful news of Elnora's wake. Without haste he hurried to her chambers not even a word to his Queen, all he wanted to do was see her and have the visual confirmation and there she was glowing in C
Celestials and a Demon prince Chapter 30: Suspicion
Edgar walked the long corridor with Landon right behind him, he had made sure that the king's order were received by the court messenger who was to relay the message to officials. He was in a spirited mood he still couldn't believe that the sleeping princess was finally awake and it was all thanks to the physician, yes the physician like he was punched in the brain he realized how rude he had been earlier when he heard the news, he did not look at her not a single gesture of appreciation, the memory of how he pulled her to the bed and her shocked eyes flashed through his mind. He had even suspected her but then why was she sitting so close to him. He felt a pinch in his mind when he realized how she looked at him, it harboured no threat but instead admiration. A spark of joy glistened in his heart. She did admire him and yet he treated her so rudely. Wait! What was she doing in his room? And how did she get there? "Prince Edgar." Landon's voice brought him to a halt. He paused in his
Celestials and a Demon prince Chapter 31: Consequences
Once she was done preparing the prince room, she strolled the work way that led to the store where she was to return her working materials. It wasn't long and she was already standing in front of the store house. She paused as she looked at the door as if to study it more seriously. She remembered her first expression when she saw the place earlier, the place was huge and sharpened with fine polish. Another maid had directed her to the store house noting that she was the new maid. She had not paid much attention to the place earlier cause needed to hurry up with the prince room. A voice cleared behind her, startling her at the same time. She recollected her herself from her thoughts. An Amber eyed maid stood behind her, her thick wavy blonde hair resting it's length on both side of her shoulders. Her hands were brought to a tie as she tucked her fingers in-between each other while holding the handle of her working materials in them."Mm... I believe you mean to be here." Her tender voi
Celestials and a Demon prince Chapter 32: Can you walk?
She kept her head low trying not to look directly at Nora, her hands were brought together in front of her resting in her skirt as she adopted an ignorant and innocent countenance but the old lady wasn't having it."Answer me! Nora's voice came roaring. The maids flinched at her commanding voice, Zora thought she was too mean for a new maid like her."I just felt too excited, I'm sorry but I didn't think of the consequences." Zora replied as humbly as she could."Your act of stupidity is going to cause your mates same punishment as you. You are new here and observation should be a first consideration. If the prince does not approve of you what do you think will be done to me?" Nora roared again. Zora could not help but roll her eyes while her head was still bent. The old lady was probably exaggerating, from the little she had heard about the prince he wasn't such a mean person and since Nora was aged she doubted he'd even let her get punished for the mistake."I am sincerely sorry." Zo
Celestials and a Demon prince Chapter 33: New feelings
Martha followed sheepishly behind Landon as he led the way, she was trying to keep up with his pace, he was walking fast while holding her not realizing he was too fast for her. He just needed to get her out of that environment. After they had walked some distance he stopped making her hastened steps to halt as well, he let go of her hand turning slowly to face her. She was silent her head bent avoiding his gaze, she was still embarrassed that he had witnessed such scene and at the same time she was scared to tell him about his mother's wristband. "You don't need to worry about me I'm fine, so please go back to your duty." She said softly and pleadingly, moving her steps closer to the wall. Landon couldn't believe this woman right now, he knew she was hurting seriously from the whip and even though she tried so hard to hide her teary eyes from him he could tell she was teary. Her voice also bore her sadness and it was killing him to see her like that. He wanted to protect her always,
Celestials and a Demon prince Chapter 34: Thinking about me Princess?
It was a long day for Elnora, the only ease she got from being locked up in her room was that her mother had been with her all through the day refusing to leave her side. It was going to be difficult from now on, her father would leave her confined to her room for as long as he felt she was safe there, this was the major reason for her acceptance to leave the castle in the first place. She had late visits at the end of the day from Edgar and the king, aside the brief moments they could spare to see her. They were away for the whole day attending to important matters that obviously had to do with her. Now that she was awake her enemies would certainly make another attempt to get their hands on her, so the castle's security was tightened even more, her room was the most protected and everyone leaving and entering the castle were made to pass a more thorough search test regardless of position. "My dear," her mother's caring voice called. She was laying facing the ceiling even though she

She was frightened at first by the sudden appearance of the ancient demon but the moment she saw his wound that wasn't healing she sighed out her fear. A glint of curiosity sparkled in her eyes as she fixated her gaze on his injury. She figured that it had everything to do with the fight with the prince but he was supposed to heal, yet he wasn't."Zora what is going on?" Ari spoke from the other side, she was the only one who could hear her through the necklace. She broke off the connection which caused the necklace to stop glowing."How do you know the name Davina?" Irwin asked in a gravelled and pain wrecked voice. He was in deep pain and his demon was creeping its way up to the surface. Zora adjusted her countenance to appear nonchalant. "You don't look too good and you could die." She said with no care in the world. Irwin's breath was heavy and despite his red eyes she could feel the fear he haboured now. Her lips twitched as she went through her mind for the best way to put him

Chapter 47: The voice on the other side
The night touches were lit illuminating the long corridors of the castle. Soldiers were changing their shifts and maids were in the last hours of their works before the retired to bed. Zora stood behind prince Edgar as she helped him fit into his night wear. It was a long day planning all the events that were put on hold because of the princess spell which included a tournament that involved noble sons and citizens from across the country."All set my prince." Zora said behind him, the room was almost deadly silent from the moment she helped him out with his bath to dressing him up. After that day with Earl she visited him at his place and at the brothel where she found him and was informed of his heated night. She felt a sting in her chest that he was having a fun time with some other ladies but she deserved it so she thought. He was better off getting over whatever little emotions he had felt that way. She felt guilty not for letting him see her in such suggestive position with th

Chapter 46: The crown
A black cloak sweeps across the dried ruffled leafs that were scattered across the floor by the wind. Their was a slight echo of wind and the cold chill of it causing goosebumps on Davina's face. Nocturne birds cried while the the moon casted it's bright colour against the dark woods. "Give me back my crown." Davina said sorrowfully in a low voice as she dragged her feet further into the woods. She felt void of the elders presence and it only meant that the powerful aura around her was lost and anyone could notice the difference if not too obvious.She sighed, her head tilting in the direction of crackling woods. She began walking towards the direction, she had been threading these woods looking for Muriel, she was weak, hungry and thirsty. "Goodness!" She muttered once her eyes caught sight of the burning wood which she presumed was the fire made by Muriel."Muriel...." She called in a low voice but got no reply, she repeated her name again but when she got no answer she dragged her

Chapter 45: Between their hearts
Edgar observed the intense gaze between the two, it felt like they were involved in some kind of nonverbal communication. He focused on Zora who looked like she battled with some regrets within her as she looked at Earl, then he moved his focus to Earl who stared unwaveringly at her, his eyes bore a tacit of hurt in it and annoyance. His mind was also working fast bringing a lot of different interpretations to it about the situation. This two looked like they certainly had something deeper going on between them. If that was the case why was he not informed earlier. Then he also realized it was no business of his if they were together emotionally and didn't see the need to let it known. Which ever was the case, he felt his heart squeeze and burn in pain. He was taken aback by the amount of pain that punctured his heart. His mind was flooding and everything in it made him scared, scared to loose her and jealousy if they were actually a thing. Still there was a heavy determination in him.

She stood outside his door waiting for him to give his consent. It didn't take long before he finally called her in. She stepped in and she dwelled on the sight of his manly body dipped inside the bath while the steam from it rose slowly, making the vision of him a bit blurr. His rich dark hair was layed back and his body dripped of water he had immersed himself in. His arms were stretched across the bath giving him a balance to rest his back against the bath wall. She blinked as her eyes went dreamy in admiration. He looked perfect and tempting. She walked up slowly to him, grabbing the bowl filled with nice scenting flowers. His bath was constructed in a pool like manner, just that it was quite smaller and fit enough for his entire body and an additional two. She brought her dress to a fold in between her legs leaving little skin from her knees to be the only part to show. She placed the bowl beside her and made sure she was close enough to him. The water was quite steamy and already

Chapter 43: Refusal
Zora's eyes widened at his question, she sighed deeply, her throat swallowing hard. He was putting her in a tight corner, how was she supposed to answer that? That she was staring at his unearthly beauty."You're hurting me." She said wincing in pain at his strong grip on her, he loosened his hands immediately and his intense gaze changed to a concerned look. He wanted to apologise for handling her roughly but kept mute instead allowing his actions do the apology."Go ahead, go prepare my bath." He said dismissively, turning away from her. She gave a slight nod before leaving. She couldn't expect more compensation to his hard grip on her than this. There was no way she could answer his question so easily, thankfully things happened the way it did. Edgar sighed brushing his hair with his fingers, few minutes went by after she left and he needed her right back. He didn't know how long this was going to drag on but he wanted her, every minute every second. He wanted to feel her presence

Chapter 42: Unpleasant
Zora eyes were now fixed on this man who dared to challenge the prince, yes! She knew him, how could she forget the one who almost caught her and interrupted her communion, like he was thinking about that night as well, Irwin maintained a deep gaze at Zora who narrowed her eyes interrogatively at him. He remained silent leaving her with nothing but a smirk. She felt attacked by his negative gesture at her, he shouldn't be a problem since he knew Earl but something about him didn't sit right with her. That expression had something deeper to it and yes she figured, he looked like he was trying to tell her something. Dislike, suspicions either one of them all wasn't well. What if he really caught her trying to communicate with Ari through her necklace, maybe he was pretending not to have seen it. Landon was already watching her with nocturnal eyes she hoped he wasn't going to add to the watch.Edgar was taken aback by Irwin's challenge. Why would he want to fight him declaring a challenge

Chapter 41: Keep your eyes on me
Zora wondered why he was silent and staring so intensely at her, even though their eyes weren't locked, she could feel his intense gaze on her. It made her want to flee and be anywhere else that wasn't close to him. Was she going to really survive being his maid, he confused her a lot."What are you waiting for?" He asked in a cold and low voice. Zora felt her breath racing at the sound of his voice, why was a half celestial being so intimidating. She had stood before more life threatening situations before, was it his killer intent the previous day when he pinned her to his bed? She felt him so strong and determined to end her at that moment. She had no evil intentions towards him but his killer intent was so strong that she almost gave up her breath out of fear. This is not you Zora! She scolded herself, she knew herself too well and this wasn't her, she that could render ones attack on her useless with just a punch line was wordless before him. She who could stand before anyone with

Chapter 40: Feelings
Edgar had just returned from the council's meeting, it was obvious from everything that had been discussed that there was much work to be done from now on, the king had suspended every preparation for the forthcoming events because Elnora was missing as at the time but knowing how much Elnora valued such events it was impossible to cancel for the year. This was her only chance every year at meeting people and being sorrounded by noble children. She hoped each year to be able to bond with someone and possibly make friends with them but all rather behaved in a dutiful manner towards her, the noble ladies trying to get on her good side in order to gain more favour from the king. The noble sons more interested in something intimate, covering up their real selfs with a pretentious mask, acting as saints before her so that when the time came that she needed to choose a husband they would be the lucky one. She knew none of them treated her with genuine interest and it saddened her a lot, with
