Chapter 70

"What's the issue Diamond?" Sylvester asked. "Alright, the truth is that Lilith isn't who we think she is" Diamond said. "What do you mean?" I asked. "The person who's in Lilith's body is called Eleanor" Diamond said.

"Eleanor? Who's she?" Sylvester asked. , "She was a Vampire Princess, she died about seven thousand years ago" Diamond replied. "Why do you think she came back?" I asked. "Revenge" Diamond replied.

"Revenge? On Damian?" I asked. "No, her revenge is on King Cyprian.... He was the best friend of Eleanor's father. Eleanor's father King Ikaris was betrayed by King Cyprian, Cyprian killed Ikaris and his wife to take over the Kingdom. That's one of the reasons why Eleanor killed herself.... Before she died she wore that she would come back for revenge" Diamond said.

"How do we send her soul back to the land of the dead?" I asked. "That's the problem, I can't send her back without hurting Lilith. We all know that Damian would never let that happen" Diamond said. "So you're saying, we have to kill Lilith before we kill this Eleanor girl right?" Sylvester asked.

"Yes" Diamond replied. "So what do you suggest we do?" I asked. "Well I've been thinking of ways to send her back and I've got the perfect Idea" Diamond said. "What is it?" I asked. "Well the only way I could send her back is if I hurt Lilith, so I was thinking about making Lilith's body an uncomfortable place for her to stay" Diamond said.

"Um... How do you intend to do that?" Sylvester asked. "I'd have to poison Lilith" Diamond said. Sylvester spat out his drink on my face. "Have you lost your mind?" Sylvester asked. "I know it's crazy but it's the only way to save Lilith" Diamond said.

"Can you hear yourself? Poison her? Need I remind you the time Damian found Lilith's lifeless body, he almost killed us. I mean he literally forgot the fact that Silver was his brother and he was willing to kill him without hesitation.... Now imagine us poisoning Lilith. He wouldn't just kill us in this life but the next as well" Sylvester said.

"Look this is a chance for us to get our Lilith back" Diamond said. "Silver please talk some sense into your girlfriend" Sylvester said. "Firstly she's not my girlfriend and secondly Sylvester is right.... Damian would do anything to protect her after that incident and I also advise him to do so" I said.

"Look we have to do this... Or else Lilith's soul would be stuck in the land of the dead" Diamond said. "What the f*ck?.... Why didn't you say so?" I asked. "Look all I'm saying is that we either bring Lilith back or we leave Eleanor In Lilith's body" Diamond said. I sat up straight with a glass of wine in my hand.

"What?... What about Damian?" Sylvester asked. "Don't worry about him, I can handle him" Diamond said. "Eleanor.... No wonder she seduced Damian last night" I said to myself. "What did you say?" Diamond asked. Diamond looked at me, I suddenly felt like she was about to eat me. "She seduced Damian? Did he? Did he do it?" Diamond asked.

"No, no, no, he didn't" I replied. Diamond let out a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness" Diamond said. "So what are you going to do about this Eleanor issue?" Sylvester asked. "I'd have to talk to Damian first" Diamond said.

"What if he disagrees?" I asked. "Well we'd have to think of another way... So in the meantime we would keep this to ourselves. Do you understand Sylvester?" Diamond said "Why did you specifically call my name?" Sylvester asked.

"Because I know Silver can keep a secret but you on the other hand, I'm not quite confident" Diamond said. "Um... You're right about one thing" Sylvester said. "And that is?" I asked. "I am terrible when it comes to keeping a secret" Sylvester said.

"You have to Sylvester, if you don't I would hex you and I would curse you to be the most ugliest Prince in the world" Diamond said. Sylvester let out an annoying laugh, but he suddenly stopped when he realized that she wasn't kidding. He cleared his throat. "I'd try my best.... " Sylvester said. "You better" Diamond said.

Sylvester left us, Diamond was about to leave. "Where are you going?" I asked. "I need go see what's going on in the Kingdom" Diamond said. "I'd join you" I said. "Suit yourself" Diamond said. Diamond and I went to see the farms in the Kingdom. The crops that the farmers planted are dead, the water in the Kingdom has dried up and now people are dying.

"What do you think is the course?" I asked. "Well I have no idea..." Diamond said. She knelt down, she placed her hands on the ground. She closed her eyes, I could feel the her power flowing through the ground. She eventually opened her eyes. "What did you see?" I asked. "Whose Kingdom is on the other side of the border?" Diamond asked.

"An old friend of my father" I replied . "what's his name?" Diamond replied. "King Cyprian" I said. Diamond looked at me with a shocked expression. "So if this affects us it would also affect him right?" Diamond asked. "Yes" I replied. Diamond walked around for a while. "What's the problem?" I asked.

"I've checked everything, there are no pests the crops can't just die without a reason.... The rivers can't just dry up" Diamond said. "So what are you saying?" I asked in confusion. "It's a spell, I can sense it. A very powerful spell, it was meant for King Cyprian but since we're part of the border we were affected" Diamond said.

"Do you think it's a coincidence? I mean Eleanor waking from the dead to kill Cyprian? And now his Kingdom is in trouble?"I asked. "It's very likely but there's one thing we forget" Diamond said. "What's that?" I asked. "Eleanor is a Vampire not a Witch. This spell was made by a powerful Witch..... I just hope it's not who I'm thinking" Diamond said. "Who?" I asked.

"Ixia" Diamond said. "Ixia? What has she got to do with all of this?" I asked. "When I was captured by the Fairies I was put under a spell that could help them figure out where the crystal was, I also saw an event that occurred some time ago" Diamond said. "What event?" I asked. "An event concerning Lilith and Ixia. Ixia tried to kill Lilith but Lilith banished Ixia" Diamond said.

"How's that possible?" I asked. "It's a long story..." Diamond said. "Wait didn't you say that she banished her... Why do you think that she has returned?" I asked. "Trust me, when she was banished Lilith also placed a curse on her. So if Ixia is back that would mean she found a way to return but she hasn't found a way to break the curse" Diamond said. "I see.... I suggest we keep this to ourselves" I said.
