Chapter 40 - Blood prince - Chapter 38

Kaerith

...Back in Vharanor ( Realm before hell ) meeting chambers.

" Where is your son Kaelvryn ? " I hear Nyvaris ask my mother as I walk into the meeting chambers

" Right here Nyv ! Look no further !" With a small bow to my mother, I took my seat opposite her.

" Do you ever Take anything serious?" He jerks up from his sit in anger

" Hmm- let me think ! Oh I'll have to get back to you on that one !"

" Vharûn has been tampered with , Over a mile Of It and all you will see is raw land " Sythrak tells the Court members

" Any sign of the cause ? " Nyvaris asks Sythrak with a grave expression.. of course the cause of it is sleeping soundly in her room now but they don't know that .

" I'm afraid not !" He shakes his head

" These strange things that have been happening, affecting realms that are meant to be untouchable ! There's only one explanation for it !" Leave it to Vharaziel to Catch onto details the others couldn't ! And it's always wrong !I'd like to see where this is going to lead them to though .

" Why don't you tell us what you think it is " Sythrak gestures towards the rest of us with a lazy expression

" An awakening !" Vharaziel announces , I burst into a wild fit of laughter, loud and sharp enough to snap every head in the room toward me. Some faces twists into scowls, others into reluctant amusement.

"Did I crack a joke, Kaerith?" Vharaziel asks, glaring at me.

I wave him on, barely choking out, "Please... continue," between gasps of laughter. Mhorvael smirks, clearly impressed. "So you want to tell me what? A human has awakened? That's a very interesting idea."

I clamp a hand over my mouth, trying — and failing — to smother another burst of laughter, settling for a shaky smile instead.

" If it was an awakening I would have been the first to know ! It can't be " Nyvaris leans further into his seat

" Then what would you suggest?.. My queen ?" He calls my mother's attention

" This is not something we can decide on without Looking into the matter ! We shall look into every possible cause and- solution " she adds the last part giving me a once-over , I sigh and slump further into my seat ! Good luck

" That would be all !" She stands up from her seat and the guards form at her side as she exits the chambers.

" You know something about this don't you ?" Nyvaris walks closer to where I'm sitted glaring daggers at me

" I do ?"

" Don't play games with me boy ! I've lived far longer than you "

" Unfortunately for you , You grow weak by the day old man "

" You seem to forget your hierarchy boy "

" No it is you who seems to have forgotten that the only unique thing about you is your age ! Or else there's no difference between you and the bound ones " His body shakes with fury !

" HOW DARE YOU !!" I stare unblinkingly at him as a smile graces my lips

" Next time before teaching me about the hierarchy of my people! Remember The differences you share between them !

" I AM NEXT TO ROYALTY !" He yells at me

" And yet you are not Royalty! And stop yelling while I'm in front of you .. "

" Soul - forger , you princes thinking you rule the realms !!!! Always going about with so much pride " He says through clenched teeth.

" Primordials ! " I say his title back to him" you old Demons thinking you control us because you were born first , yet - you lack the power - If that would be all " I give a nod from my sit before fading to his back " i'd suggest you be careful Nyvaris - you are beginning to test me - and we don't want that now do we ? It would be a shame for Mazikeen to lose you over such -.. trivial things " I drawl .. with a whisper into his ears and watch his jaws lock in anger before walking away

In my chambers ...

"Knock, knock, knock." sharp knock echoes through the room.

I close my eyes, swallowing my irritation before answering " I would very much like the door in one piece so enter Mazikeen " I turn to see her head through the door opens slightly

" How did you know it was me ?"

" I perceived the desperation ! It's become a permanent scent on you now " she huffs with arms crossed slamming my chamber doors

" I wanted to come check on you "

" Do I look like a woman who just birthed a child , or do I look like a child in need of comfort ? "

" No-no ! I heard you got into an argument with Nyvaris !"

" You heard I got into an argument with a primordial and you came to check up on me ? And not him ? I don't know if I should feel irritated by you or insulted by you "

" Of course I know you are stronger -"

" Flattery will get you nowhere ! If you are about done ! I'd like my beauty sleep " She narrows her eyes on me in the dark comfort of my Bedroom

" Is it because of her ?" Interesting...

" *Sighs* her who ? " I lift my brows in question

" Her , the awakened.. Nyvaris says you have taken a liken towards her .. "

" Did he now ?" The corner of my lips tilts upwards in amusement

" Yes is it true ?"

" You and your father seem to have lots of time to spare if you have time to gossip ! Such a feeble thing to do .. and There is no awakening ! And there never will be Mazikeen .. do tell your father , now get out ! "

" B-bu"

" Did I stutter ?"

" No !" She leaves closing the doors with a loud thud..

One day just one day ! I'll be rid of her , she becomes a thorn in my side with each passing day .
