Chapter 77

I woke up the next morning, I saw Eleanor on the bed. She placed her head on my hand, she even rapped her hand around me. I slowly broke free from her grip. I went to take a shower, when I was done I saw Eleanor sitting on the bed.

"Good Morning" She said sweetly. Don't be fooled Damian she's not Lilith. I need to figure out a way to keep calm. "Morning" I replied. "Are you alright?" She asked. "Yes I'm fine" I replied. "You hesitated to reply back" She said. I took a deep breath. "I'm sorry I have a lot of things on my mind" I said.

"Is it concerning King Cyprian?" She asked. "Yes" I replied. "Don't worry, we'd find a way to fix it" She said. Honestly I feel like dragging her soul out of Lilith's body but sadly I can't. I was about to leave the room.

"Where are you off to?" She asked. "Uh... Silver and I are going for a hunt" I said. "Oh.... Can I join?" She asked.

Actually Silver and I aren't going for a hunt, I'm going to King Cyprian's kingdom to see how far Malcolm has gone with the distribution. "I can't let you go" I said. "Why?" She asked. "Because it's going to be dangerous. I wouldn't forgive myself if anything happens to you" I said. "What? Do you mean I can't handle myself?" She asked.

"No, no, no. I'm aware you're more than capable of handling yourself but I don't want you to get hurt.... I wouldn't forgive myself if anything happens to you. You mean more than you know to me" I said. I hope that was convincing enough. A smile spread across her face. She hugged me tightly.

"I can't wait for us to get married" She said. Married? I can't marry her. Who said anything about marriage?. "I could only imagine it. You all dressed up in your suit while I would be in my wedding dress" She said. Wow a girl sure can dream. I placed my hand on her cheeks.

"You would be beautiful. I would be happy to have you as my wife" I said. I eventually left my room, I went to Persigon, King Cyprian's kingdom. I met Malcolm in a house. He came to me the minute he saw me. "Your Majesty what brings you here?" Malcolm asked. "I just wanted to see if how far you've gone" I said.

"Rest assured Your Majesty everything's going well" Malcolm said. "I see.... Inform me once the supplies are out" I said. "Yes Your Majesty" Malcolm said. I stayed with Malcolm for a while before returning to my Kingdom.

Later in the evening, I went to meet Diamond. "Are we ready?" Sylvester asked. "Yes.... But it has come to my notice that a sleeping potion wouldn't do anything. Instead the potion I'd give her is to make Lilith's body uncomfortable for her to stay in" Diamond said. "What do you mean that?" Sylvester asked. "Uncomfortable how?" I asked.

"Like?" Silver asked. "Like dead kinda uncomfortable" Diamond said. I looked at her in anger. "Wait i'm confused who needs to die?" Sylvester asked. "Lilith's body needs to die in order for Eleanor to leave her body" Diamond said. "What do you mean by Lilith's body needs to die? Are you saying that we'd have to kill Lilith?" Sylvester asked.

"Don't worry, once we poison her we'd have to prescribed the antidote a minute after she took the potion" Diamond said. "What you think bro? Are you in?" Silver asked.

I used my palm to massage my head. I don't know if doing this is. "What happens when we don't give her the antidote at the exact time?" I asked. "She dies" Diamond said. "Damn girl... You couldn't even sugar coate it" Sylvester said.

"Look Damian I know it's hard but this is the only way we could get our Lilith back" Diamond said. "Fine but we would give her the antidote immediately" I said "sure" Diamond replied. "Where's the potion?" I asked. "Here it is" Diamond said. She brought out a green potion.

"This is the potion, we need to use it as soon as possible" Diamond said. "Give it to me.... I have a perfect idea" Sylvester said. So the plan was set, although I didn't like the idea of Sylvester coming up with a plan but what chose do I have?.

I invited Lilith to join me in my room so we could celebrate. "What's the special occasion?" She asked. "Oh... We're feeling happy so we decided to celebrate" Sylvester said.

"What are we celebrating?" She asked. "Um.. The fact that you're alright" Silver said. Sylvester brought out a bottle of wine, he poured the wine in everyone's glass. "Let's make a toast" Silver said. "Yeah.... Let's make a toast to Lilith. The fact that she's here with us right now" Sylvester said.

We all raised our glass waiting for Lilith to drink it. She placed her lips on the glass, we anxiously waited for her to drink it but she stopped. "I really don't think I deserve such treatment" She said.

"Nonsense.... You are worth everything darling" Diamond said. She placed the drink close to her lips but she suddenly stopped. We were all filled with anxiety.

"I don't drink alcohol" She said. "Don't worry it's alcohol free" I said. She was about to drink it but she stopped again. This is both annoying and frustrating. "I don't think I should drink this besides I had a big dinner" She said.

"Oh for f**ks sake" Silver said in frustration. He pushed the glass, he made sure he held it firmly to her lips so she had no other option than to drink it. The moment she placed the glass on the table. We all stared at her waiting for the potion to take effect.

"Why are you looking at me?" She asked. Immediately she collapsed, I used my super speed to grab a plate of salad so her face wouldn't hit the table but the salad instead.

"It worked.... I had no idea it would take effect immediately. How many drops did you add Silver?" Diamond asked. "I don't know" Silver replied. "What do you mean by you don't know?" Diamond asked.

"That's because I didn't do it. Ask Sylvester, He's the one who added it" Silver said. We all turned to Sylvester. "I added the entire bottle" He replied. Silver chocked on his wine. "You did what?" Diamond asked.

"You didn't mention that I was suppose to add few drops Silver" Sylvester said. "Forget about it.... Now we need to place Lilith's body on the bed while we wait for Eleanor to leave." Diamond said. She gave Silver a bottle which contained a blue substance.

"Silver this is the antidote. Once Eleanor leaves the body you must give Lilith a drop of this potion. Remember it's one drop" Diamond said. "Alright" Silver replied. Now all we have to do is wait for Eleanor to leave Lilith's body.
