Chapter 254: Chapter 254
"There’s a war coming, and the witch living in a cave knows about it before I do," Alia said, trying to hold in her anger before she snapped at Killian. Sybil had to be lying about this or was just misinford. Alia trusted that Killian would inform her about demons from the underworld. "This is just a misunderstanding, right? We would only fight when needed to get Fraser off the throne, right?"
Sybil slowly returned into the darkness as she could feel Killian burning a hole through her head. It wasn’t her fault that Killian had not adequately inford his wife. So marriage this was. So royalty they were. Still, she enjoyed the conflict she had stirred up. Anne should thank her if this marriage were to now fail.
"Since the other Gods no longer care about keeping your kind in the dark when it cos to demons, Lucifer has been making plans to release his demon in this world. Not to run rampant as they would like since there would be no humans left with the way they feed. I will be the one who leads them while Lucifer is in the underworld," Killian replied.
Gods like Lucifer never stayed out of their realm for too long so Killian would do all of Lucifer’s work. He was taking the Blackwell throne as a gift to himself for all his work in this. He would rather stay in the North and lay around than deal with war, but it was inevitable, and he also wanted to be entertained by humans freaking out.
The only reason he had not let another demon take his place leading was that he didn’t trust there would be soone other than himself or Lucifer to control so many demons and stop them from wiping out humans.
Alia pushed her hair back and walked around in a circle. Demons coming out of the underworld was much bigger problem than wanting to take back the Blackwell throne and placing soone else on it until she had a child to rule. There were going to be a lot of people who were just getting over the fight between Killian and her father, thrown back into war.
"I am not ready to deal with this," Alia softly spoke as she continued to pace until stopping to face Killian. She had been so caught up in learning about demons and other things. What was she supposed to do when these demons ca out of the underworld? "We are supposed to go down the mountain to speak with Fraser as royalty in a day. Is that when you are planning to attack?"
"It is not. It will not happen when we go down to speak with your cousin, but it will be soon once Lucifer gives the order for the gates to stay open."
"Killian, not only as Queen but as your wife, don’t you think you should have pulled
aside and told
this the mont Lucifer showed up? I put so much trust in you that you would not keep
in the dark or lie to . I asked you if as Queen I would be around for important etings. I had to learn about this since Sybil let it slip. Excuse ," Alia said, needing a mont alone. "I won’t leave the cave."
She did not want to stay angry with him for long, but she really needed to think about what demons coming out of the underworld ant for her. What it ant for the North, the Blackwell kingdom ,and the rest of the world.
"That wasn’t my fault," Sybil said after Alia left. "What kind of husband doesn’t tell his wife about all the deaths she will see? This marriage isn’t going to last. For , this war is a good thing. There will be so many bodies I can go around collecting parts from. Hurry up with it."
Killian couldn’t find himself being annoyed with Sybil. He needed to tell Alia about his plans with Lucifer, but he was caught up in the bliss of what had ford between them and had not told her. It didn’t sound like she was even upset about a potential war. She was upset about the fact that he hid this big secret from her. "Fuck," he muttered.
anwhile, Alia sat down at the entrance of the cave and looked out to the castle that was in the distance. Lucifer and the others were probably continuing their plans right now.
"Just when I beco Queen, demons must co out of the underworld. Just great," Alia muttered. She couldn’t imagine a peaceful world once regular people like her learned about demons’ existence. Killian spoke about humans not being able to ntally handle the truth. Alia touched her head. "I can already hear the screaming."
Alia looked down at the trees below Sybil’s cave after she heard a growl and found a large black wolf looking up at her. "Loki? Please be Loki," she whispered, ready to call for Killian. She relaxed when she saw the white wolf appear. It didn’t make her less afraid since Asura didn’t seem too fond of her.
The white wolf liked Killian while Loki tolerated her.
"Uhm. There goes my ti alone to think," Alia quickly got to her feet. Asura was jumping around trying to play with Loki who was watching her. "Killian is inside. Do you even understand ?"
Alia took a step back as Loki started to walk up to the entrance of the cave. "Killian," she looked sideways to call for him. "Please do not eat - Oh," she looked down at Loki who ca and laid down by her feet. "You just wanted to rest. Should I- no," Alia pulled her hand away when Loki looked up at her.
"If they wanted to kill you while you were alone, they would have sneaked up on you," said Killian. He heard Alia softly calling his na. "Alastor fed them earlier, so they shouldn’t be hungry now. If they were tempted to kill you, at least you wouldn’t be eaten afterwards. Are you still angry with
for not sitting you down and telling you? I did plan to."
"A little bit. I cannot tell you not to carry on with the plans you had before , but I would like to hear about news like this from you instead of soone else. So I won’t be standing like a fool, and soone enjoying the fact that I know nothing. I can’t stay mad at you because you did tell
what you learned about my mother right away. I just needed ti to think about how crazy the world will get. Loki interrupted my thoughts," Alia said, looking down at the quiet wolf. "Even if you think sothing will upset , please tell
right away."
"Alright. You snore in your sleep, and it makes
unable to sleep," Killian revealed.
Alia leaned over to her left to pick up a handful of snow. "I know I am a peaceful sleeper, and you are a liar. I should just-" Alia stopped mid-air when she heard a growl, which was followed by another growl.
Asura wasn’t happy with the fact that Alia wanted to hurt Killian, and Loki growled at Asura, seemingly in defense of Alia.
Alia dropped the snow to end the fight before it could start. "This is what it will be like for us to have children, isn’t it? Each picking a side and defending us."
"You speak of two children. I wanted to have ten or so-"
"Get it through your head right now that I will not have ten children for you," said Alia.
