Destroy you

He was fierce, is fierce and always remain fierce, his aura was so intimidating and his calm yet deadly face was also intimidating, no one could go up against this man. A man that could kill the people of a kingdom all by himself without no help.

He stood tall as the strongest, fiercest, and bravest immortal on earth, the undefeated lord Peres.

His gaze narrowed down to Diana who was a little bit intimidated by his presence, truth be told he was intimidating. A low hiss left Peres mouth, she was back and he knew that her return was for trouble and it would bring more problem.

He defeated Diana before she was casted away, no one knew where she was, it was like as if she disappeared and reappeared. Peres could have found out where she was but he was not interested in that besides even if she comes back he would awash defeat her. ‘Why can’t she learn a lesson once?’ Peres asked sighing.

His gaze then rested on the man Lina thought that was familiar and he smirked, ‘what a wonderful plan Diana! But I think you just made a stupid, huge and big mistake cause adding this man to your team would cause nothing but destruction’

As if the man could read Peres mind, his (the man’s voice) ringed in his head “don’t dare reveal me” Peres only smiled at that statement

“Well! Well! If it is not the lord Peres, the only immortal on planet earth” she said sarcastically “and if it is not Diana, the only loser and foolish mortal on planet earth” Peres replied grinning wickedly at her

“I have come to destroy you” she quickly said “wow! What an ambition? To destroy an immortal, that like going on a suicide mission because I CANNOT be DESTROYED” Peres added more emphasis on cannot and destroyed.

Though his voice carried so much power Diana did not back off, she stood her ground and continued to challenge Peres

“You are right, I can’t destroy an immortal but I can destroy something or someone very close to him” she said with an evil smirk and then her gaze landed on Gina who was under the protection of Lucian all along.

Peres followed her (Diana) gaze and it rested on Gina and God knew that he panicked for a second, he forced himself not to remember the first time he lost her, it felt like the end of world to him, no! He can not let Diana gain what she wants, she wants him to lose his control and that he would not give her

“I make sure that I have your head away from your body before you try anything stupid” he stated and for a moment there was disbelief on her face. Was it that he does not value Gina anymore?

“I would be back for you Peres and the next time we would meet it would not be as simple as this” she said leaping away with her gang.

The entire place was eerily calm when she left, “what were you thinking when you left?” Pearl fired at Lina. Lina did not see that coming, she was about to reply when Gina interrupted

“Honestly, that was childish of you, how could you leave when you know that there is danger in this place, you could have put yourself in trouble now, what if we did not notice your absence quickly, what could have happened to you if we came a little bit later huh?” Gina asked

“I told his highness that she is a burden, but he would not listen, how I wish he was here to see it for himself” Lucian mumbled but loud enough for everyone to hear.

Peres took a deep breath in, he was not paying attention to their conversation because of his conversation earlier with Diana. Okay let us be honest, Diana was a strong woman, no doubt, as cunny as a fox, as brave as a lion and as wise as a tortoise. All this characteristics was embedded in her. He remembered the last time she attacked, how she was a problem to their land and how it took them different strategies before they could overcome her, she was always one step ahead of them. Who knew what she was up to now? She was know creating drones to help her in whatever plans she have, what a smart woman!

Peres looked at Lina, checking if she sustained injuries, which she did not, then he leapt away and without any more words everyone followed suite.

The moment they arrived home, Karen rained down questions on Lina, Lina tried her best to answer politely, she knew that Karen meant well for her but geez, her questions were annoying

“Lina, I want to personally tell you that what you did today should never ever repeat itself again, we move in group and that is for the benefit of everyone, so do not leave all alone again, let us just say it was a mistake. No one is allowed to talk about this issue again, case closed” Peres ordered and left for his room.

Lina was grateful for Peres instruction, she knew that Lucian and Pearl would not let her be if Peres had not ordered for the case to be closed.

Lina went to her room, Talia was on the bed writing some stuff, it was past midnight, God she risked her life, she really needed to thank Peres for rescuing her.

Talia turned and looked and Lina for a while before her gaze returned to her book and for some certain reason Lina was uncomfortable with that. Lina removed her black leather jacket which she wore before leaving and her jeans and changed into her short pink night gown.

“Hey Talia, it is past midnight, won’t you sleep? What are you even writing?” Lina asked approaching her

“Aunt Lina…” Lina interjected “call me Lina” “what?!” Shock filled Talia’s face “yep” Lina smiled at her

“I am working on a school project and I am meant to submit it tomorrow at school” Talia replied “okay, how can I help you?” Lina asked and Talia sat up

“Aunt… no sorry Lina, you need rest, no need to bother yourself with my problems, I know you have enough on your plate right now, go to bed, you guys are training hard tomorrow” said Talia

“How did you know that?” Lina asked “I overheard prince Adam telling lord Peres that tomorrow is the main day, you guys are going to train non stop” Talia explained and Lina’s breath hitched

Talia was right she needed rest “good night Talia, sweet dreams” she told her before kissing her forehead and climbing her bed at the lower bunk.

Lina fell asleep cuddling her pillow and going into the world unknown.
