NTR SAGAS - Chapter 109: A Threat In The Kingdom

The sun shone majestically over the kingdom, casting a golden hue on the stone walls of the grand castle. The kingdom still hadn’t stopped celebrating even after the wedding of their king since the young master of the Yu Family was going to marry right after.

Excitement rippled through the air as the townspeople continued to stand in the hall in their finest attire, eager to witness the next extraordinary wedding of the day. They had never witnessed two weddings of such powerful people in a single day.

The king’s wedding was a grand spectacle, a testament to the love he held for his queen. They all saw how the couple exchanged heartfelt vows and sealed their commitment with a tender kiss, much to their delight. The happiness and joy of the moment were palpable, and the people couldn’t help but be swept up in the magic of the day.

As the king and queen left the platform to make way for Celia and Jiang, a hush fell over the crowd, eagerly anticipating the next union. Jiang, a tall and handsome young man with broad shoulders and piercing blue eyes, stepped onto the platform. He stood tall, his father, the powerful Prime General, standing proudly by his side. A murmur of admiration swept through the crowd as they took in the sight of this distinguished middle-aged man.

Everyone had tales of how the Prime General was a terrifying figure, especially in the battlefield and how much glory he brought to the kingdom.

“Jiang, my son, today you become a husband,” his father, Linaro said, placing a firm hand on his shoulder, “I never expected to see this day so soon,” He said with a hidden glint in his eyes.

Jiang smiled and said, “I always told you father, I would settle down once I found a woman who can satisfy all my needs.”

Right at that moment, Celia made her entrance, and the entire hall was captivated by her beauty. Her short red hair framed her delicate face, and her bangs accentuated her bright green eyes, which sparkled with joy. She wore a simple yet elegant red gown, which seemed to make her glow like an ethereal vision.

As she walked up to the platform, the crowd couldn’t help but be charmed by the innocence and purity of her smile. She seemed to radiate love and warmth, and it was clear that Jiang was just as smitten as the rest of the crowd.

“Celia,” Jiang said, taking her hand, “I have never been more sure of anything in my life. I promise to love, honor, and cherish you for as long as I live.”

Celia’s eyes filled with warmth as she replied with a bright smile, “And I, Celia, pledge my heart and soul to you. I promise to stand by your side, in good times and in bad, as your partner and your love.”

The officiant, a wise and respected elder, then spoke. “In the presence of your family, friends, and the people of this kingdom, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may seal your vows with a kiss.”

Jiang and Celia shared a passionate and loving kiss, and the crowd erupted in cheers and applause. As they walked down the aisle, hand in hand, it was clear that the love they shared was genuine and profound. The people of the kingdom couldn’t help but feel as though they had not only gained a new queen but also witnessed the beginning of a truly beautiful love story.

But they had no idea that even though Celia seemed like a newly married happy wife, she was clutching the edges of her fabric tightly.

After Lucas abandoned her, Celia had never felt so broken on the inside. All the pain, shame and guilt she endured for his sake, only to be thrown away without even understanding her in the slightest.

She realised she was a fool for believing in Lucas and loving him. Now all she wanted to do was forget him and the pain he caused even if that means she has to marry Jiang.

She gave her virginity to him yesterday night and remembered how free she felt when he fucked her again and again. She was able to forget her pain and all she could remember was the feeling of Jiang’s dick rubbing against her insides and the pain and pleasure from him slapping her ass and squeezing her breasts.

Even if his actions were painful, she preferred that kind of pain rather than the pain in her heart.

“Don’t the two of them make a fine and beautiful couple?” Yiman asked with a smile, his hand around Nadia.

“Yes, they do,” Nadia felt like rolling her eyes and couldn’t believe Celia had fooled her before with her innocent acts. She saw how lovey dovey Celia was being with Jiang and knew she was no different than her. That seemed to provide her with some sense of satisfaction and relief.

However, suddenly she heard the hurried footsteps of an elder.

The elder, dressed in ornate robes, approached Yiman with a sense of urgency in his eyes. Bowing deeply, he whispered into his ear, his voice barely audible above the rustling leaves.

Yiman’s expression changed from one of contentment to one of grave concern as he listened to the elder’s troubling news. Nadia, noticing the sudden shift in his demeanor, looked at him with narrowed eyes, wondering what could have caused such a reaction.

After the elder had finished delivering his message and departed, she gently touched her his arm, concern evident on her face, “My love, what has happened? You seem deeply troubled.”

Yiman clicked his tongue with a frustrated look but then looked at her with a smile, “My queen, I have just received word that the Shadow Demoness has entered our kingdom. This is the first time we are facing a threat in the kingdom in so many years. She has decimated a large number of my men and laid waste to one of our bases. I must leave immediately to address this grave situation before people panic. But I don’t understand…Why would she enter our kingdom? I never did anything to offend her,” Yiman mumbled with a confused and annoyed look but then he cleared his throat and said, “Whatever it is, I will be back soon,” Yiman kissed Nadia goodbye as he left hurriedly.

Nadia wasn’t surprised to hear the name ‘Shadow Demoness’.

She was said to be a figure of nightmares, striking terror into the hearts of even the bravest warriors. Her very name evoked images of darkness and despair, and the mere mention of her title was enough to silence anyone.

Some say that she was a vengeful spirit, born from the shadowy depths of a forgotten realm, seeking to exact retribution on the living. Others claimed she was a sorceress who had made a pact with the darkest of forces, gaining unimaginable power in exchange for her soul.

Nadia didn’t know if all this was true since she never personally saw her nor did she want to. However, she was surprised to see how even someone like Yiman had his composure disrupted at the mention of her name. Surely, she must be even more powerful than she thought.

Suddenly, she remembered Lucas was out there and he could be in danger. But she shook off this thought since Lucas was no longer her concern. He chose his path, leaving her with no other choice.

Her complete focus was now to become the supreme ruler of this kingdom and stand above all. She was done being a fool and knew power was the answer to everything.
