Her gaze slowly retracted to the Enigma who was currently glaring daggers at her under the veil of his cold blue eyes, obviously not liking where the conversation was heading and he threateningly tilted his head at her.

Calista didn’t need any further warning before averting her gaze from his direction, almost like his gaze was enough to force her innocent soul out of her human body, and she couldn’t risk doing something that would bring that disturbing thought to pass.

However, Roshan wasn’t particularly sure of what to make from this sudden request and leaned his back on the chair.

His first initial thought was that the human would try as much as possible to escape his question, but what he got in return had left him visibly baffled......and strangely thrilled as he shifted his gaze to the white-haired demon who stood at the entrance of the chamber, unmoved and barely uttering a word.

“I’ll only answer to him.” Calista pointed in his direction once again, keeping to her words and it made Azazel’s brow knit into a frown. Not like she had seen him smile ever since he brought her here but that menacing frown he gave her instantly made her recoil her fingers back.

She had to admit internally that they both scared the wits out of her. If it wasn’t for the neatly adorned chamber they had kept her in, she would have seen them as escaped souls from the underworld.

She was just a human princess who got curious about those blue eyes playing in her head, she just wanted to know who’s eyes it belonged to and why she couldn’t get it off her head.

How was she supposed to figure out that the end result would be finding herself in a Demon’s den, and in the hands of not just one, but two strikingly handsome men claiming to be Demons.

.....

“So you’ll only speak as long as he’s asking the question? Is that it?” Roshan had to ask again, wanting to remind her of her own statement in case she plans on backing out.

Calista placed a hand on her poor chest, feeling the rate of her heart palpitate through her palm in anxiety, but she tapped it lightly before mustering up the courage to respond,

“It’s a possibility I’m hoping you’ll give a try.”

Roshan clicked his tongue at her deceptive tone, he was starting to wonder if the women in Euphrasia were born differently from normal women out there.

First he had to deal with Anna who shared her own stubbornness and now, the princess of that kingdom isn’t any different. Or maybe because it has something to do with the people of Euphrasia having a long time rivalry with Demons.

But the situation altogether wasn’t pointing at him, it was pointing at Azazel which sort of piqued his interest. The princess doesn’t look like someone who wants trouble, but it seems she’s unaware of the trouble that came with talking to Azazel.

Her choice was trouble on its own.

“Don’t you think you’re in an off position to still make a choice? Princess?” There was a hint of sarcasm in the glacier’s tone that Calista found disapproving, she couldn’t even hide the sour look that crossed her face at his words.

Was he challenging her?

“If you’re from royalty then you’ll understand where I’m coming from.” She sat properly on the bed, avoiding the gazes of the two baffled men who were more than shocked by her responses.

Most especially Azazel who happened to be taking it a lot more seriously than the glacier.

“Okay I’m done with her.” He made up his mind. Azazel doesn’t think he can stand this annoying human for one second but halted in his approach when Roshan raised a finger, stopping him from taking any harsh steps on the lady who retreated instantly on the bed.

He looked really bitter about her presence and that was one thing Calista couldn’t understand. But why was it so surprising? His hate wasn’t supposed to shock her, but it did.

He was a demon and she was a human. A complete contrast that will never be accepted. The name of her kingdom was enough to even justify his reasons.

“Have you no shame?” She said to him after retreating to the far end of bed, knowing he can do anything to her if she provoked him now.

“Coming at a woman just cause you’re pissed.” She pointed out in a deceptive tone while meeting his irked gaze.

Clearly he has no interest in talking to her and instead of just staying here and listening to the haughty woman rant non-stop. Azazel said nothing and exited the room with quick steps.

“Hey.” Roshan called at him, but his brother didn’t respond and just left without looking back, not even once.

Roshan was stunned and his pupils dilated slightly.

He wanted to laugh at Azazel’s reaction but knew he had to hold it in before it ruins his composed demeanor. His brother wasn’t someone who interacted with women every now and then like Levi, he rarely speaks with Anna and avoids women as though they are some sort of plague to his humanity.

But after witnessing his reaction today, it was relatively funny to see the ever-so-calm Azazel get worked up by a woman he just abducted.

Why he abducted her still makes no sense to him though.

Roshan didn’t mind returning her back to Euphrasia if she was a normal being, but unfortunately for her, she had to be the princess of Euphrasia which means he could get some valuable info from her about the Valerian sword.

Info’s like where it is kept, who is holding it before he knows exactly how to make a clean plan on stealing it back.

But clearly, she’s a woman with choices, she wants Azazel to ask the questions and not him. Who in the world still gets picky after abduction?

Now he has to convince the unconvincing Azazel to play it out. Not because he was left with no other choice, but he was interested to see how it’d all end once Azazel agrees.

“Stay here.” With that, Roshan got to his feet and exited the room, locking the door behind him before going after Azazel.

Calista let out a deep breath the moment she felt their presence dissipate and she stood up to her feet. She glanced at the chamber but unfortunately, there was no way to escape from this place as the doors and every other exit were locked.

“Even the windows are jammed.” She muttered with her blue eyes glistening in disappointment. Figuring a way out of here turned out to be even more difficult than she had expected it to be.

She knew her brother must be searching for her, and Archer must have delivered the news of her kidnap. Her brother wasn’t someone who’d take this issue lying down and she only hoped her sick father wasn’t aware of it as well.

If her brother comes here and causes another war then...

“No.” She shook the thought away as a look of concern dawned on her, she has to leave before her brother comes here. This was the Demon’s den and anything can happen.

With that in mind, she quickly hurried towards the curtains and tried to open the windows from there, but it refused to budge. The more she struggled, the more she felt her energy gradually slipping away from her system and when it was starting to get too tough with no positive results, she stopped.

Her chest heaved up and down, indicating how breathless she was from the struggling and her hands found themselves to her hips.

Shattering the windows with something hard didn’t sound like a good idea and the noise would have alerted everyone, which is something she wants to avoid to remove further attention her way.

This time around, Calista made sure to study the glass before touching it, curious to know if it was really jammed or not. But the glass glinted sharply under her gaze the more she stared, and the glass was only starting to look mystical as though someone had placed a spell on the window.

Was it that grumpy head’s doing?

She inwardly grimaced at her bad luck and just when she was about to give up, her eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of someone taking a walk in the front yard. There were two of them, leading Calista’s eyes to squint in an attempt to picture them clearly.

One was dressed in a luxurious outfit, while the lady walking beside her held a bowl of grapes, following her around and when she looked closer, her blue eyes dilated in shock.

“Anna??”

Without waiting for a second, she began to bang on the window, “Anna!”
