Forever Destined To The Silver Shadow

Theo's POV: 

"Sex Slave?!" I chuckled. "Do you Highlanders refer your lady lovers as sex slaves?!"

"Silver Shadow…" Darius grumbled. "I am serious! Free the Dawn from your clutches. She has a noble purpose of fulfilling than being a sex slave to you. Isn't it enough that you ruined her dignity a thousand years ago? Why do you want her to ruin her again?"

So they must have manipulated Celestia by lying like this to her. And sadly, my love fell for it—but not anymore. Ivory must have taken her to Selene by now. 

"Celestia is now free from all your lies and manipulation. And you are going to be imprisoned in the dungeon of the sapphire castle soon! I hope that you won't cry for your beloved father when you are down there—"

"I will slay you, trickster… I will definitely slay you," he growled.

I got bored of hearing the same thing over and over again. I chuckled to myself and turned my attention to Lilin, who was watching the scene quitely for this long. 

"My lovely Lilin," I smiled at her. "I have a lot to speak with you. Why don't you come to Selene with us?"

She smiled back and said, "I would love to—but I need to get back to my realm before my mother gets furious at me."

"Oh, come on, my dear! I was so much looking forward to having firewater with you in the islands, under the moonlight—"

"Fine," she sighed. "But give me the moonstone now. You promised me that you would give my stone back once I captured Darius."

"Sure, I will give it back to you," I beamed and pretended to search my sheath. "Your stone belongs to you—"

I was able to feel the presence of the exhilarating stone resting in my sheath, but I won't give her the stone now. I can't let her go back to her realm—not after what she tried to do to Celestia. 

"I completely forgot," I sighed. "The stone is with Ivory, and she is now in Selene. So why don't we go back to the islands and have a firewater, and after that, you can leave the lands?"

"Okay," she breathed out. "But why are you keen on having a drink with me?"

I smiled ear to ear again. "Come on, Lilin! You are my first love, and is it too much to ask you to have a drink with you?"

She smiled and looked away from me. She bought it; she bought my lies! 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Once we reached Selene, I dragged Darius by his chains to the dungeon below the Sapphire castle. I locked him up in the iron cage in which Samuel was locked up just days ago. I didn't care to free him from the dead rock chain; he deserves to be bound with that energy-draining chain. 

"Why are you even doing this?" he yelled. "What do you get from this, trickster?"

"Well, I get the opportunity to infuriate your overprotective father through this! And have a nice stay in the darkness—" I said and went out of the dungeon. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Princess of darkness was waiting for me on the seashore of the islands, just like she promised to me. It is not like she can go anywhere else; she can't cross this land without the moonstone.

I was carrying a huge goblet full of firewater and walked on the sand towards her spot. She was watching the sun rising above the deep sea waters in complete awe. 

She didn't give me much attention while I was standing beside her. "The sunrise is beautiful in your realm!" she retorted. 

"Then you must see the sunset. It is, even more, lovelier than this—"

Then she turned to me and smiled. "I miss being here with you, Theodore."

"I miss you too, my loveliness! Now come on, let us have a drink," I faked a smile and offered the goblet to her. She got the goblet from my hand and gulped down a sip from it without giving a second thought to it. 

"This is nice," she said and took another sip from the goblet. "And why are you not drinking with me?"

"I want my loveliness to drink first—"

She shook her head in dismal and gulped down the entire goblet in one go. Soon she dropped the goblet on the golden sand as the feeling of jitteriness took over her. 

Her hands and her legs started trembling—as the effects of the special ingredient that I added to the firewater began to kick in her body. 

"What is happening to me?" she cried out and crouched down on the sand. "Why do I feel like my strength is getting drained?"

"Cause my darling, that is what happens when a pure Anti-Angel drinks the Unicorn blood," I beamed at the Princess of darkness, who was now lying on the sand and trying to regain her lost energy. 

"Unicorn's blood has the tendency to obliterate all the negative forces! Since you were filled with darkness entirely, you got so much affected by the divine blood instantly—"

She was losing her energy little by little. But her eyes were watching me with utter hatred. 

"You trickster…. tricked me again! And I fell for it like…. a…. fool…."

"Yes, you did," I smirked. " This is what you get for scheming against Celestia and instigating your Incubus boys to assault her—"

"What?" she gasped. "Incubus assaulted Celestia?! When did this happen?"

Now Lilin was slowly losing her tanned skin complexion, and she got paler like a Vampire. Still, she was acting innocent instead of admitting her mistake. 

"Come on, my loveliness! Your evil plan has come to light now—and I even killed four of your Incubus boys. So will mind not acting anymore?"

The whites of her eyes widened in horror. "What did you do to Aaron?" she screamed. "Why did you kill him?"

"It looks like you are still in love with that filthy creature of lust," I laughed out. "And don't worry, my loveliness! Your lover is still alive—but I am going to kill him very soon—"
