The Black Mist Enchantress - Chapter 123

After the heated discussion between the son and father, the men returned downstairs to have their dinner. Talsha was already sitting and talking with her mother. Upon seeing her father, she quickly stood up and ran towards him.

” Father, you didn’t even come to check up on me? See your daughter was injured during the combat session in the college.”

Talsha acted like a pampered princess in front of her family and of course, it was because they pampered her to the bones. Right from the day she was born, although her upbringing about family and proper etiquette was strict, her parents as well as her grandfather always fulfilled all her wishes. However, her mother opposed her choosing Alex as her love of the life because Cynthia knew that Talsha didn’t love him at all in truth.

Basically, she was admired by many youths of prestigious families and never had anyone dared to not spare a glance over her while she was passing by. The only exemption was the Salian clan crown prince, Envoy Salian Alexandrian, he at the banquet never even batted his eyelid to look at her. So Talsha remembered this arrogant man and fell deeply in order to make him her possession.

Father Ludacris checked all her wounds and confirmed it was all superficial wounds that would fade away within days. He wanted to keep her at home for the next few days and surprisingly she agreed to it.

The family dinner ended with everyone eating up to their stomach full. This showed that Lady Cynthia was a great cook and a great housewife as she knew each one’s favorite dishes. After dinner, the family of three sat in the backyard watching the moonlight sky. Lady Cynthia signaled her husband to ask Talsha about the college matters and he nodded.

” Tali, how are your college days? Have you got any contact with the Salian prince?”

When the Salian prince was mentioned, Talsha mind raced back to the spot where she had seen Alex and Emmy together in their intimate moment inside the forest garden area. The feeling of disgust rose in her mind but outside, she had a calm expression on her face.

” Father, I think it is time for me to stop looking out for him. He had a girlfriend who is actually a vixen, she seduced him so easily and I think she might be some sort of witch who does black magic. Alex is totally charmed by her and I have never seen so passionate and clingy.”

The Ludacris couple felt happy as their daughter was coming back on the right track instead of creating unwanted problems. So Taran decided to let her daughter know the recent news of the Salian clan.

” Father, are you saying the truth? Alex is not the Slain crown prince anymore? What the hell had happened there? So now who is the future king to the clan ?”

Facing the rapid-fire of questions shooted out by Talsha, even her mother Cynthia wanted to know the answers to these questions. Where curiosity was killing both mother and daughter, father Ludacris was silent. He was thinking about whether to tell them Emmettina’s new identity or not. However, soon or later, Talsha would have to get together with Alex. So she must know about what happened during the time of her birth and that girl Emmettina will be his daughter’s number one rival.

Before he could respond, Talsha sighed, ” Then it is great, I could never accept that arrogant fellow if he is someone ordinary. Good gracious, I came to know about it before having any kind of relationship with him.”

While Lady Cynthis was over the moon as her daughter finally realized what was correct for her , on the other hand, Taran could not accept this behavior anymore.

After keeping silent for a few minutes, Taran looked at his daughter and calmly said, ” On the night of your birth….”

” Dear, no.. why are you saying these things now ?”

” She deserves to know…”

Talsha looked at her parents, watching their grave expression, she knew it would be a very important matter but how was it related to her birth?

” Tali, my dear child, On the night of your birth, we thought we lost you forever as you were born without heartbeats. That night I prayed to god to exchange my life for yours but then an angelic being came for our help. I don’t know what had happened after she took you from my hands. The next morning when your grandfather found us, you were alive and healthy, sucking your cute little thumb and lying down beside your mother.”

” So why does it matter now father?”

Lady Cynthia didn’t want her daughter to learn about the demand that the angel who helped them had stated. It was to make this girl, the only woman of the first Salian prince. So she interrupted her husband in between.

” This doesn’t matter at all, your father just wanted to let you know. Child, now it is late at night, go and sleep early.”

Seeing her mother push her inside the house, Talsha knew there was something else too which her father wanted to say but her mother clearly didn’t want her to know about it.

All through the night, Talsha could not sleep due to curiosity and she woke early to find her grandfather who never lied to her.

” Grandpa…”

Grandpa who was sitting at the lawn enjoying the morning fresh air looked at his precious grandchild who clearly had duck eyes after losing her sleep.

” Child, yesterday did you not catch a wink of sleep after talking to your father?”

Talsha nodded her head. She wanted to know what else was hidden from her.

” Tali, come and sit near grandpa, so you found me in the early morning to know what your mother had interrupted yesterday, isn’t it ?”

Talsha sat beside her grandpa, ” I really want to know, even though the angelic being has helped father, in my view, she must have kept some condition, right!”

“You are a clever child indeed, yes, she had a strange condition. It was written over a note kept beside you when I found you three. The condition was not simple, it was to make you the only woman besides the Salian clan’s first prince.”

“Can I see the note please?”

” Well, I already had assumed that you would need to see that one day, so I kept it preserved with utmost care. Go and check the secret compartment, don’t let your mother see you do it, alright. ”

Talsha hurried to find the note in the study, she got the note and straight away rushed to her room before her mother found her.

After closing the room, Talsha kept the note at the table and saw the engraved words. The handwriting was neat and legible. The strokes were flowing like a river and it portrayed the majestic feeling all throughout the note

“Make her the only woman in the eyes of the first prince of the Salian tribe.”

.

“Make her the only woman in the eyes of the first prince of the Salian tribe.”

..

“Make her the only woman in the eyes of the first prince of the Salian tribe.”

…

“Make her the only woman in the eyes of the first prince of the Salian tribe.”

….

Talsha kept on reading the note and suddenly it started burning and it made Talsha freak out.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh….”

She threw the burning note to the pure white carpet. After the note was completely burnt, a strange smoke arose from it. The smoke was light white in color and odorless, just as it reached Talsha’s nostrils, it made Talsha faint on the spot. The smoke covered up her whole body and on the carpet, there were no residuals of any note burnt.

Meanwhile, at the great Esbertrazian clan, Galstorie was waiting for his master. As Alex didn’t reject him but also didn’t give permission to be around him, Galstorie was disheartened. He thought about his master, due to him, his master got caught and now the heavens were punishing him in the form of his master’s son.

Galstorie was over the moon as the elder Miandrake had called him yesterday to mention the arrival of Alex and Emmy. He specifically asked Galstorie to teach Alex how to strengthen his internal powers.

Actually, after Emmy takes the medicine, it would not guarantee full rate success and the residual effects could be unimaginable. So, he had to keep Alec out of the scene for at least three days. So he tactfully charted a plan to put Neshag and Galstorie to train Alex to strengthen his meridians.

When he saw the most awaited person entering the hall, he rushed to the front. Alex knew that Galstorie was awaiting him for him and this time, Alex needed to train himself up. Last time, he had seen the powers which are going to be against his Emmy. So he needed to train him powerful, to protect his woman.

“Welcome back, Master!!”
