Dragon Monarch System
chapter-492

The festive atmosphere in the room was full of laughter and jovial chatter, as everyone mingled, sharing stories and enjoying each other's company. The acceptance and warmth that Sasha and Lilith had received from almost everyone had been overwhelming. Julia, Alicia, and Lara had welcomed Sasha with open arms, treating her with the respect and affection of a real sister. They were kind, nice, and very friendly, making her and her mother feel truly at home.

But then came the moment when Sasha met Riya, and something instantly sparked between them. Perhaps it was their complete difference in nature or their surprisingly similar appearance, both blessed with stunning silver hair. Whatever it was, the connection was not one of sisterhood but rivalry.

Sasha, the alluring demoness, a Succubus by birth, exuded a seductive confidence. She was an assassin, a taker of lives, with a deep affinity for the darker aspects of nature. Clad in her sexy black dress that emphasized her curves, she was the very picture of dark temptation.

Riya, on the other hand, was the epitome of purity and grace. A healer by profession, her very presence was soothing. She was kind to the core, her affinity with light reflecting in her gentle demeanor. Her modest white dress, simple yet elegant, spoke of her serene nature.

Their differences were not just in appearance but in their very essence. And as soon as they locked eyes, the tension was palpable.

"What are you staring at?" Sasha's voice was sharp, challenging.

Riya's eyes narrowed, her gentle expression giving way to one of defiance. "I could ask you the same thing."

The room seemed to grow quieter as the two women faced off. It was a clash of personalities, a battle of wills. They circled each other, throwing barbed comments and heated glares.

"You think that modest white dress makes you superior?" Sasha taunted, her voice dripping with scorn.

"I don't need a dress to feel superior," Riya retorted, her eyes flashing. "Especially not one like yours."

The others in the room looked on, uncertain how to react. Aditya's other fiances tried to intervene, to smooth things over, but it was clear that the hostility between Sasha and Riya ran deep.

"Enough," Aditya finally stepped in, his voice firm but calm. "We're here to celebrate, not fight."

Both women turned to look at him, their expressions unyielding. But after a moment, they reluctantly backed down, the tension in the room slowly dissipating.

The evening continued, but the encounter between Sasha and Riya had left a mark. They avoided each other, their interactions limited to cool nods and forced smiles.

It was clear to everyone that while Sasha had found acceptance and even sisterhood with most of Aditya's fiances, her relationship with Riya was far more complicated. Their differences were profound, their animosity real. It was a clash of light and darkness, healer and assassin, angel and Succubus.

"Aunty! Why did you come so late?" Riya exclaimed, her voice filled with genuine affection as she embraced Lilith.

The others in the room, including Sasha, looked on in surprise, their eyes widening at Riya's uncharacteristic familiarity. The contrast between her interactions with Sasha and Lilith was stark.

Lilith returned Riya's hug, a gentle smile on her face. "It's good to see you again, dear."

"You know each other?" Aditya asked, curiosity piqued.

Riya turned to the others, her expression softening as she began to explain. "A few years back, I met Aunty Lilith when she was injured. I healed her, and we spent some time together. She's a wonderful person, and I'm grateful for the chance to have met her."

The room was filled with nods of understanding, the pieces of the puzzle falling into place. Lilith's eyes twinkled as she added, "Riya was like an angel to me that day. I was in a terrible situation, and she came to my aid without hesitation. It seems you have grown so much since then. You have become a beautiful woman."

Sasha watched the exchange, her expression a complex mix of surprise and contemplation. The antagonism between her and Riya was still fresh, but seeing this other side of Riya, her kindness and respect for her mother, gave her pause.

Riya's attention remained on Lilith, her voice sincere as she said, "Aunty, I'm glad you're here tonight. Let's enjoy ourselves and make this a memorable evening." Lilith nodded, her face glowing with happiness.

The joyous occasion was in full swing at the Dragon Palace. Everyone was busy chatting, laughing, and enjoying each other's company. But amid the happy noise, the experienced eyes of Watson, the esteemed butler of the palace, noticed the subtle fondness in Aditya's eyes as he looked at Sasha.

Aditya turned to Watson as he entered the room, his face lighting up with a warm smile. "Watson, you came here at the right time. Let me introduce you to Sasha and Lilith." He gestured towards the two women, both stunning in their elegant dresses, their eyes sparkling with curiosity and excitement.

'Another addition to the family,' Watson thought, his heart swelling with a mixture of pride and joy. 'I better prepare two rooms for Lady Sasha and Lady Lilith. The family continues to grow, and it is a blessing to see such happiness.'

With a graceful bow and a warm smile that reached his eyes, Watson greeted the two newcomers. "It's really nice to meet you, Lady Sasha, Lady Lilith." He addressed them with the utmost respect, his voice filled with genuine pleasure. Both women nodded their heads in acknowledgment, their faces reflecting the warmth of his welcome.

Aditya's face was alight with satisfaction as he watched the exchange, clearly pleased with the growing connections within his family.

"Your Majesty," Watson turned to Aditya, his tone shifting to a more formal one, "dinner is ready. Would you like to have dinner now or later?" He asked, his eyes scanning the faces of the guests.

Aditya looked around, seeking the agreement of everyone present. Seeing nods and smiles, he turned back to Watson, his voice decisive. "Now, Watson. Let's have dinner now."

"In that case, please come to the dining table. Everything is ready." Watson's voice was filled with contentment as he led the way, his steps sure and graceful.

As the guests made their way to the dining table, Aditya's fiances remained behind.

"Lady Sasha.....!!!!" Sasha was about to walk when she noticed that a man wearing black mask that covered lower face of his face. She immediately recognized this man. How can she no recognize the leader of the Shadow Guardian. Though she has never met him, what from she has heard from her subordinate she knew that this was Nathan. The description matched 100%. Especially his iconic lower half mask. No one has ever seen his full face.

"It's really an honor to meet you." Nathan bowed his head head. Every Assassin in the whole world deeply respected Sasha and her mother. As both of them were the best Assassins in the whole world. It's a shame that Lilith retired. But Sasha proved herself to be even more deadly, dangerous, and stronger than Lilith. She carried Lilith's legacy and took that to a height that no other Assassin in the whole world and in the history would be capable of achieving. Sasha has changed the whole meaning of being an Assassin.

The organization that Sasha runs is the best and most dangerous Assassin organization in the whole world. There isn't any man on earth who doesn't shudder in fear hearing the name of the one sentence and that is "The goddess of lust is after your life".

Sasha's steps halted as a figure caught her eye. Dressed in dark, elegant attire with a distinctive black mask that covered the lower half of his face, the man stood out even in the grandeur of the Dragon Palace. His eyes met hers, and a jolt of recognition shot through her. It was him. Nathan, the leader of the Shadow Guardian, a name that struck fear and respect in the world of assassins.

How could she not recognize him? Though they had never met, the descriptions she had heard from her subordinates were etched in her mind. Especially that iconic mask, a symbol of mystery and strength. No one had ever seen his full face, but his reputation preceded him.

"Lady Sasha...!" Nathan's voice broke the silence, his tone filled with reverence and awe. He bowed his head, his eyes never leaving hers. "It's really an honor to meet you."

The room seemed to hold its breath as the two legendary assassins faced each other. The words were simple, yet they carried the weight of respect and admiration that every assassin in the world held for Sasha and her mother, Lilith. They were not just skilled killers; they were artists, reshaping the very essence of their craft.

Sasha had inherited her mother's deadly prowess and had built upon it, becoming even more formidable and feared. Under her leadership, the organization she ran had become the most dangerous and respected assassin guild in the world. Her name alone was enough to send shivers down the spines of the most hardened criminals. "The goddess of lust is after your life" - a sentence that spelled doom, a mark of death.

Her eyes locked with Nathan's, Sasha felt a strange connection, a mutual understanding that went beyond words. They were kindred spirits, warriors who had walked the same path, each leaving their unique mark on the world.

"It's an honor for me as well, Nathan," Sasha finally replied, her voice steady and calm. Her words were few, but they conveyed a depth of respect that mirrored his own.
