81. Hues of evilness

It surprised Mirabella to receive such a rare gift, and she complimented Ravina, “Hues of moonlight butterflies are the precious and rarest things in the world. Convey my gratitude to your father and King Caleen Evintyron.”
The crowd’s murmuring sound filled the entire throne room about the speciality and ability of the hues of moonlight butterflies. The announcer introduced the fourth bride, “Our glorious kingdom of Ayruzglow is in awe of welcoming our brave and beautiful princess D’Rona Neguvex, the precious possession daughter of the Delta Werewolf clan and the powerful warrior delta, Yanti Neguvex, from the kingdom named Zontasylva. Princess D’Rona Neguvex from Zontasylva pack!”
D’Rona walked into the throne room with a brave attitude and bowed at Queen Mirabella. She got the present from the soldiers, and she addressed to the point. “My queen, it’s my pleasure to meet such greatness in person. I brought the fangs of a rare white wolf, which is the core reason for our existence. You can take this as my present, representing my entire pack.”
She handed over the fangs to the soldiers and informed them, “Show this to the queen. She might want to look at these rare things.” They did as she requested, and the queen accepted with a smile, “I welcome you, D’Rona, to my kingdom and inform your father and your pack.”
Not even taking a glance at Dev, she moved to the cushioned seat that was allotted for her. She sat, legs crossed, and showed attitude in her every gesture. Her slim legs were exposed, and it became a silence breaker in the throne room. Ivan immediately reflected on her actions. “Dev, this wolf is full of attitude.”
Dev noticed her actions and informed Ivan, “It’s her legs. Let her sit in her comfortableness. Our kingdom aims to let the subject live with the utmost comfort. Slavery is not our method.”
Ivan agreed, yet he didn’t have a good impression of D’Rona. The announcer silenced the crowd and announced the fourth bride, “Let us all unite to welcome our fifth bride from the kingdom known for reindeers, elk, and chamois, Bergslicys Kingdom, ruled by our powerful King Gawan Organzo, who has the bloodline of a reindeer and was known to be a direct descendent of the Sun’s first ray, his one and only daughter, Princess Avika Organzo, the glacier beauty. “
Soon after the announcer abandoned the throne room, it was soon filled up by the tingling sound that was heard, and everyone fixed their eyes on the path to welcome the glacier beauty.
To everyone’s eyes, the glacier beauty approached in brief steps with ash-coloured hair and a turquoise blue-colored long outfit with small embellishments of drop-shaped, non-melting, icy droplets.
As she approached, she looked like a transparent girl with an outfit. Every bachelor of Ayruzglow's kingdom gasped to see the glacier’s beauty. But the glacier beauty’s eyes were fixed on Dev whose eyes were still looking for his bride, Akshara, to appear in the throne room.
When Avika Organzo stood in the middle, it filled the entire throne room with reflections of light from her embellishments. She appeared like a glacier fairy with stunning beauty.
Her crystal clear eyes roamed everywhere around the throne room and finally landed on Dev. Ivan signaled to Dev and told him through his teeth, without making a lip movement, “Dev, she is looking at you.”
“I forbid no one to see me. (Paused) Maybe she’s looking at you, Ivy.” Dev told him carelessly.
The soldiers handed her the things in a closed cloth, and the princess opened to reveal the antlers of reindeer and elk. She stated, “My queen, I am presenting you with my land’s precious antlers of reindeer and elk. I request you to accept this small gift from my kingdom.”
Mirabella, the white queen, smiled at princess Avika, “Oh, you honour my kingdom with the presence of the glacier fairy. (Mirabella chortled) These antlers are precious and rare to any man. I accept your present. Please take your seat.”
People gathered in the throne room, including allied kingdoms princesses, were shocked to the words of queen. Princess Avika nodded with a smile and looked at Dev, thinking to catch his eyes. Dev had a glimpse of Princess Avika and smiled inwardly and whispered to Ivan, “They may title her as Glacier Beauty, but...”
Ivan stopped Dev, and he completed the words for Dev, “Your siren is the most beautiful female in the world.”
Ivan sighed at Dev and stated with stern eyes, “I am decided.”
“What have you decided?”
“I decided not to love any more. It’s clear how a man would become blind in love.”
Dev’s smile greeted Ivan’s confession and mentioned recalling some past occurrences, “Remember a day you cursed me I would be bound by a beauty?”
Ivan nodded, recalling the past, which echoed in both minds of Dev and Ivan.
In the past, a few months before the encounter in the witch palace, and exactly to say when Dev was annoyed with the word “girlfriend” when Ivan mentioned it. Dev quickly responded to Ivan, “I don’t have any girlfriends. Why is it bothering you all the time?”
“Quickly find one. I can’t accompany you all the time,” Ivan informed him.
“Dare Ivy. You even dare to find one?” Dev asked him to fake an anguished tone.
“Sure Dev. If anyone chose me by chance, I would at least be hanging with you”Ivan told Dev just to provoke his calmness.
Dev, in fake anguish, added a few words to his anguish. “Will you leave me just for those freaky girls?”
Ivan was worried and tried to convince Dev to love someone. “Oh Dev, why have you concluded the relationship with girls? If any does not impress you, that implies you have seen none who could live the rest of their life with you. Only for you.”
Dev replied, “Such girls don’t exist in this universe. If one ever wanted to spend her life with me, she should choose my wealth, not me.”
“Not all the girls are desirous. Tell me, Dev. What will you do when you have fallen for a girl?” Ivan asked, to know what Dev’s reply was.
Dev said confidently, “In your dreams, Ivy. I won’t belong to any girl in this entire universe unless it’s my mother. My mother has all the access points on me.”
Ivan reacted with a sigh, “Let’s see Dev, heaven knows what your destiny will bring. I’m damn sure, a girl will possess you and you…”
Dev told him, “Then it makes sense. I have my bad destiny. Ivy, will you take my side even if I have the worst destiny? Or will you let me suffer in such pain?”
In the present, Dev and Ivan laughed at each other, recalling the past occurrences of how life altered the minds and thoughts of both Dev and Ivan. As Dev mentioned, “We are exactly poles apart in our thoughts, Ivan. You believed in love, which I don’t. But now I am in love. You don’t want the love chapters in your life.”
Ivan sighed, “You mentioned it as dark destiny, and why would I ever wish to have a dark destiny?”
“Let’s wish for our dark destiny then,” Dev smiled to make a dimple in his cheeks. “You will soon find your siren and let me save some words to tease you for those days.” Dev warned Ivan.
Both Dev‘s smile and the Queen’s words were misunderstood. Everyone thought that Princess Avika would be their future queen, since both the queen and the crown prince were happy to receive her.
Some people murmured, “Look, our queen says she honour our kingdom with the presence of glacier beauty.”
“Does that mean she is the chosen one for our crown prince?”
“Then what would be the position of the girl he brought from Frozen Crescent?”
“Our crown prince also approves with his dimpled smile.”
“The glacier beauty would be our future queen.”
“She is not only beautiful, and her kingdom is the only match for our kingdom and our crown prince.”
Some random conversation of subjects disturbed Nora’s confidence, and she couldn’t wait in patience to enter. She busted open into the throne room before her introduction announcement was delivered by the Synker, the announcer.
Nora entered the throne room with a v-neck purple satin outfit along with yellow-hued flowers. All see Nora and are stunned, shocked, and shocked.
The announcement came, “All welcome our army’s female general, a beauty packed with talents, the most vicious sword fighter of all centuries, the only daughter of Jaravles Shirk, our dark knight, bloodline of night dragons, Lenora Shirk, the night fury.”
Nora mesmerized her father, Jaravles, and her brother, Ivan, in such an outfit. Ivan asked, “What happened to her?”
Jaravles exclaimed, “I never knew my daughter could be this beautiful. I wish her mother was alive to see the beauty of my daughter.”
Dev raised his voice, audible to Nora. “What are you wearing? It’s... it’s just weird. (Dev stopped laughing after noticing the changes in Nora’s bloomed face.) But, it’s nice to see you in this feminine outfit. But I liked your warrior suit more.”
Nora blushed at his complimenting words and was seated next to the fifth bride. Dev’s eyes wandered over the throne room to spot Akshara. His repeated failure doesn’t exhaust his enthusiastic, icy blue eyes.
Ivan told him, after watching his struggles in finding Akshara, “Dev, calm down. She will come, for sure. Axe must groom herself to meet you. Be patience.”
Dev asked him, with a sheepish smile on his face, “Am I obvious?”
“Hmm,” Ivan replied and thought to himself, “I must divert him with random questions, which could save some time until Axe arrives.”
“Dev, who will you choose if you have not met Axe?” Ivan questioned Dev to save some time. But Dev’s reply gave him goosebumps. Dev replied, “All princesses are no less beautiful than each other. Anyone would be confused about choosing one from a bunch of beauties. There are more possible ways to choose... all of them.”
It shocked Ivan to hear his declaration, “What? all of them? Dev, then what about your siren?”
