*An Immortal Handsome Doctor With no filter ,A Drama king ,  Two and a half warriors. One undead princess. Nine kingdoms. one Forbidden Island ... 

After being mysteriously revived from death, Princess Faye finds herself changed — stronger, faster, and very not human. With no memory of her past and a dangerous new hunger growing inside her, she joins a reluctant royal, two silent knights, a very loud ex-doctor, and a clueless sidekick on a journey through nine kingdoms.

Their goal?
 Find the rare dragonblood that might restore Faye’s memories.
 Survive the monsters, curses, bounty hunters, and political traps waiting in every land.
 Uncover the truth about Faye’s forgotten past — and why she was assassinated in the first place.

But the real wildcard isn’t the monsters. It’s the man leading the way.

Bom: immortal, reckless, brilliant, and possibly clinically insane.

If the monsters don’t kill them, Bom’s decisions just might.

Chapter 17: Bom's POV – The Price of Chicken

After I dramatically pointed to my gorgeous immortal face, the queen's knight blinked and asked, "So... you'll go into the Forbidden Woods and save Queen Zare? That's... very kind of you, Doctor Bom."

I smiled sweetly. "Yes, yes, I will. But you'll have to pay me."

Regis exploded. "I ALREADY gave you a mountain of gold, Bom!"

Zare's knight, panicking, said, "We'll give you anything you want. Just save her!"

I nodded. "Perfect. Then when I return, I want a royal feast. A full table of food. Mostly... chicken."

The knight blinked. "Wait—what?"

Faye groaned. "Not the chicken obsession again..."

I pointed at her like she said something revolutionary. "Exactly. Chicken. And—one more thing."

I gave him my most serious look. "A statue of me. Glorious. Life-sized. Handsome. Accurate."

Regis stormed up to me. "She's DYING and you're demanding drumsticks and marble?"

I stuck out my tongue. "I don't work for free."

The knight nodded slowly. "...Alright. Statue. Chicken. Deal."

I clapped my hands. "Fabulous! But you're getting two immortals for the price of one."

I threw an arm around Faye's shoulder. "She's coming too."

Faye shoved me away. "NOPE. I'm not going anywhere near that cursed forest!"

Regis pulled her into a protective hug. "She's not going, Bom. It's too dangerous."

"She's immortal!" I snapped. "And I need help! Even immortals can die in the Forbidden Woods if we go in alone!"

I stared at him like he lost his mind. "Bob?! He'll die in two minutes."

As we argued, Faye groaned and clutched her head.

Regis dropped to his knees beside her. "Babe? Faye? Are you okay?!"

Bob casually took ten steps back. He knew what was coming.

Faye's body tensed. Her hair bleached white. Her eyes turned blood-red. Her voice became a monstrous growl.

Regis screamed like a dying goose.

I laughed. I couldn't help it. Then I calmly trapped Faye inside the nearest closet and slammed the door shut. Click. Locked.

I handed the key to Hector. "Open it when she's Faye again."

Regis yelled from the floor, "Why did she transform?! She ATE this morning!"

"Stress," I shrugged. "I told her she's coming with me. It triggered her."

I rolled my eyes. "Because I need help ."

Clavis raised a hand. "I'll go. I'll help you save Queen Zare. Even if it costs me my life."

Regis nodded. "Clavis is in. Hector stays with me to protect Faye. So… Bom, take Bob too."

Bob screamed, "NO. I am not risking my life! I'm too young. And too pretty."

I patted his head. "Don't worry. You're neither."

"TRAITOR , i will not go with you !" Bob shouted.

Fifteen minutes later...

We were standing in front of the dark, misty outline of the Forbidden Woods.

Let the suicidal mission begin.
