"Your crystal is glowing, leader. I guess, Princess Elliana is calling you," One of the witches said, and Azura, who was sitting with her eyes closed as they collected magna for her daughter’s unlocking process, imdiately opened her eyes, looking at the crystal ball.
If Elliana called her using the pendant she gave her, it had to be sothing important.
Wait. Wasn’t today her battle in the witch’s University? It was supposed to start in an hour, right? Did she get hurt?
Hundreds of thoughts started to circle in her head. She just hoped her daughter was safe.
"I will be back," Azura didn’t waste a second in disappearing from her place.
As soon as she reached the royal palace, she sensed the shield around the room that was supposed to be Elliana’s, and her pupils dilated.
Without a second thought, Azura raised her hand in the air, bringing it down with a full swing, penetrating the shield with her own so she could enter the room.
Elliana, who was looking at Queen Arizona, imdiately looked towards the balcony when she noticed her mother’s presence.
The loud sound of the window glass piercing and then shattering into thousands of shards echoed in the entire royal Kingdom, alerting everyone, who rushed out of their rooms.
"What is happening? Stephano, Marcus! Quickly, check the Princess’s room," Ruth shouted through the mind link.
Sebastian, who heard the glass breaking in his office, imdiately used his vampire speed to reach the room, his heart picking its pace, praying to the moon goddess everything was alright.
His princess said it was soone familiar. Then why?
Everyone reached out of their room, their vampire senses catching up on the witch’s aura around them. And they didn’t need anyone to tell them it wasn’t a normal witch but soone with great Magna and dominance, probably the Queen herself.
"Sebastian, son, what is going on here? Our Princess is inside all alone," Aubrey said, making Sebastian step closer to the door while the rest of the family mbers stepped behind, knowing all too well he was probably thinking of breaking the door.
"Princess, is everything okay?" Sebastian knocked on the door, rather than being hasty.
If Elliana doesn’t open the door within a few seconds, he won’t be left with any choice but to break the door.
Elliana, who heard the knocking, sighed and glared at her mother, who was looking at her with a concerned expression.
"What should I tell him now? What about her?" Elliana asked.
"The truth," Azura said.
Elliana nodded after getting a green signal from her mother, who was staring at her sister.
She walked to the door and gently opened it, peeking from inside.
"Princess, what was that all about?" Sebastian imdiately pulled her outside, pulling her in for a brief hug before he cupped her face, checking for any kind of injuries.
Once he ensured she wasn’t injured, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Queen Arizona has co to et . She had created a shield around the room that prevented anyone from sensing her. I imdiately called Mom here so that she would be able to handle her. Please don’t worry," Elliana looked at the other family mbers.
"And I am sorry for the window. Mom will repair it before going," Elliana said.
Ruth, who was equally worried about her, just like everyone imdiately stepped ahead with a frown on her face.
"Princess, do you think we care about that re window? We ran here because we were worried about you. You are fine, right?" Ruth cupped her cheeks and Elliana nodded softly.
Seeing the family so worried about her, Elliana couldn’t help but sotis wonder if this was the sa family who threw Mr. Marino out of the palace because he was a monster to them.
"Why didn’t you call Princess?" Sebastian asked, looking at his family in a signal and everyone imdiately walked away, leaving the duo alone.
"I didn’t want you to scare her away. I want to hear what she has to say," Elliana said sheepishly.
Sebastian sighed, unsure if he should caress her cheeks for being so cute or smack her back for being so careless. What if sothing had happened to her? He even asked who was there.
"Do you want to go inside while your mom and that queen talk?" Sebastian asked.
Elliana looked at the door before nodding.
"I want to hear," She said.
Sebastian, who was going for a eting and arranging things with the attack they were planning on the human rogue’s camps that were trying to infiltrate their kingdom, sighed and kissed her forehead.
Nothing was more important than her.
"Let’s go," Sebastian intertwined his fingers with her before both of them entered the room hand in hand.
Arizona imdiately turned towards the girl who entered, her gaze shifting to Sebastian, a subtle smile appearing on her face.
"I wasn’t so sure about you when things didn’t go as planned and Elliana ended up marrying you. However, seeing how much you love my daughter, I guess, so things are better off left to fate," Arizona said and Azura scoffed.
"Your daughter? Let’s get a few things straight, Arizona. Just because you call her your daughter doesn’t make her one. She is my daughter," Azura said.
"But, I-"
"And before you said that you looked after her for eighteen years, let’s not mix it with your love and affection for her. We all know why you looked after her," Azura added.
Arizona sighed and nodded.
"I am sorry. I know no apology will make what I did to you right, but... Huh... It’s useless to say all those things, no? Rather than wasting your ti like Elliana already warned about, I would like to state what I ca for," Arizona took a deep breath and looked at Elliana.
Azura looked at Elliana too.
If her sister said anything relating to taking away her daughter, she would forget that this woman standing in front of her was her elder sister and kill her for real.
She has been quiet for too long. Though saving her husband and freeing him from this witch’s clutch was important, there was no way she would risk her daughter’s life for it.
Everyone waited in anticipation for Arizona to say what she wanted to.
However, what she said next was beyond what anyone had thought.
"I want to send King Eros back,"
