The Crown's Seduction
Chapter 128: Sisters

Chapter 128: Sisters

Fallen Angels were only known as myths since none would honestly want to boast their existence, especially repenters like her mother who simply wanted a peaceful life here on earth. As such, only the rare people would believe in their existence, unlike their belief in Demons...

Demons, on the other hand, were fallen angels that refused to live righteously like the repenters. Instead, they spread evil on earth like that of Azarel, the previous king of Helion that was killed by his own son Devon who was hell-bent on conquering the world.

There was a moment of silence. Her sister Xenia seemed to fall into deep thought, so Mineah went ahead and read what was going on inside her sister’s mind.

[Ughh... The weight of the crown! Just the thought of all the responsibilities I have to shoulder... Ughhh... My head is spinning just from the thought of it. I shouldn’t have given up on just being a wanderer! Life was so easy and carefree back then!]

Mineah chuckled, "Hahaha! I know that face, Sister. Say goodbye to your dreams of being a wanderer and start getting used to know more about your new kingdom. Cordon is your new home now, although Ebodia will always be our forever home."

"I know, Mineah. Goodness, my head already hurts just from thinking about the responsibilities I have to follow," Xenia groaned. "Anyway, I’ll do my very best to achieve my goals no matter what. I won’t allow my man to have any other qualified Queen to stay by his side except for me," she declared with a grin.

"That’s more like it, Big sister. Aren’t I lucky not to undergo such things while being a Queen? You shouldn’t have run before, because if you didn’t... you would’ve been in my place wearing this crown without so much as having to go through physical torture just to prove yourself worthy like what you’re about to experience," Mineah rambled with a small pout. "But then again, I guess you can’t have everything perfect. In Valcrez, you might not experience physical hardship, but you’ll definitely experience mental exhaustion in return."

"I’m sure you can handle it well, my dear sister..." Xenia cheered her on with a smile. "Among the three of us, you have the strongest mind!"

"Definitely," Mineah answered with a dangerous smirk on her face. "I refuse to simply let them trample us beneath their heel."

Mineah and her big sister continued sharing their respective experiences living in a new foreign land with one another.

"Don’t you have any regrets at all, big sister?" Mineah asked. "I mean, the things that would’ve been if you didn’t run away."

Hearing her question, Xenia smiled as she gently held her hand, caressing it while she looked at her intently.

"I have no regrets at all, Mineah. I wouldn’t have met the love of my life if I hadn’t run away," she replied with a warm smile on her face. "Although before that, my conscience almost ate me up from thinking how my actions had also put you in a messed-up situation..."

Mineah bit her lower lip. She was itching to confess to her sister that it was also her fault because she compelled her that time. Yet, she held herself back because it wasn’t the right time to confess to such actions. It would also mean that she would have to explain to her about her curses.

"Hmm... You honestly helped me get married, Sister. We both know that I have a reputation for being a cursed princess in the other kingdoms which led to no one wanting to take the risk of marrying me. But the Vampire King..." Mineah trailed off, a joyful smile forming on her face as she continued.

"He accepted me regardless of those rumors. So on that note, I do believe that everything was meant to happen the way it did. You meeting the Werewolf King, who you said you now love wholeheartedly, and I being married to the Vampire King who didn’t even have a second thought of accepting me regardless of whether or not I am truly cursed."

"Are they still bringing it up in the royal court? About you being a cursed princess?" Xenia asked with a concerned tone.

Mineah had a wide grin on her face as she proudly replied, "I’m able to use it to my advantage anyway, so don’t worry, Sister."

Xenia chuckled. "Alright then. I know I might be stronger than you physically, but you’re more cunning and dangerous than me, little sister. Just make sure to know your limitations and don’t do too many things that can endanger you," she reminded with a smile.

"Anyway, Dani is there with you every step of the way, so I guess I really don’t have to worry. She’s a better guardian than your older sister anyway."

Mineah had a pout as she replied, "Stop that. You’re the best sister in the world, it’s just that we have different characters and hobbies that made us a bit incompatible. You’re more carefree and prefer to explore the world, while I’m the opposite of that."

She let out a soft chuckle as she added, "Also, I’m glad that you also have Jayra with you. And the same goes for Dani on my side. Looking at it all now, we were bound to move to our separate ways eventually, Sister."

Xenia heaved out a long deep sigh as she murmured, "Right. It was only Ezekiel who had to stay in our home. We were destined to leave our family and live with our new husbands in one way or another."

Mineah’s expression changed as Xenia spoke about their brother, but she quickly replaced it with a smile all the same.

Thinking quickly, Mineah changed the topic. "Do you want me to give you a tour around the castle tomorrow, Sister?" she offered. "Or are you already feeling tired and lazy after all of your training? I heard that you had quite the strict regimen from the admiral."

Xenia blinked at her as she inquired, "Hey, are you stalking me, little sister?"
