Five years ago.
In a room on the third floor of the emerald castle in the Alliance's elven clan, two beautiful women talk in a stressed tone.
"I don't want to marry him; I don't want to become a priestess, and most of all, I don't want to live confined in a stupid castle like you." Ghilanna vents while keeping a rebellious posture.
The mature woman in front of Ghilanna shakes her head. "You ignore the history of our people; you disdain our traditions, and you don't realize how your selfish acts can harm others."
*Knock* *Knock*Before Ghilanna can answer, they hear a knock on the door. A woman speaks on the other side in an apprehensive tone. "Sorry to bother you, my Queen, but the King demands your and the princess's presence in the main hall immediately."
"I don't want it, mom!!" Ghilanna speaks in a worried tone.
The elven Queen makes a sad expression. "Don't you understand it? Our people are weaker than the other Alliance clans, and we can only remain independent because we are united."
She takes a deep breath and continues. "But for that, we need to keep the traditions. You have incredible nature magic, and you are the princess. If you do not marry Lord Merlk's son, the other noble houses will rebel against your father, and when our people are fighting each other, other clans will crush us and steal our lands easily."
Ghilanna shakes her head. "Noble houses? Those stupid nobles only care about their own power and wealth. I don't want to be a part of that; I never wanted to be a princess."
The elven Queen takes Ghilanna's shoulders and speaks in a severe tone. "But you cannot change who you are. You are Ghilanna, daughter of Ghalenna and granddaughter of Ghaladriel. If you ignore your duties as princess of this clan, you will be doing serious damage to our people."
Ghilanna pushes her mother forward and speaks in a sad tone. "So I'm abdicating all my titles... I don't want to participate in any of this."Ghalenna takes a deep breath. "You know how your father and the other nobles are. Even if you didn't want it, they would force you, and I can't stop them. So there's only remains..."
"To run away," Ghilanna speaks and continues. "I'm leaving to find my own place. I never belonged here."
Ghalenna is really sad but tries to maintain a firm posture. "If you do that, you will be abandoning your people, your family, and me."
Ghilanna thinks for a few seconds, but when she remembers her disgust at the elven nobles, she quickly regains her resolve.
"I can't stay here anymore; this place... these people are making me sick," Ghilanna explains.
With pain in her heart, Ghalenna says the words she never expected to say to her only and beloved daughter. "Then go. Go look for your place, but... there is no turning back. If you choose to leave us, this can never be your home again; these people will no longer be your people, and I will no longer be your mother."
Tears begin to flow from Ghilanna's eyes as she speaks. "I'm sorry it has to be this way, but I can't stay here anymore. I'm sorry to disappoint you..."
Ghalenna feels like crying, too, but she maintains a royal posture that only a true queen can have. "I should support you unconditionally as a mother, but before I was your mother, I was already Queen. I have to care for all the daughters and mothers of our people."
Ghilanna approaches her mother and hugs her tightly. "I could never blame you for that. Although I disagree with my father and the other nobles, I know that you are a good Queen and our people need you."
*Knock* *Knock*
"My ladies, please..." This time an elf guard speaks from the other side of the door.
Ghalenna kisses Ghilanna on the forehead and gently pushes her back. "Go! As your mother, I will do anything to cover your escape, but after that, it will be as if you never existed."
Ghilanna's tears fall to the floor as she walks towards the window. "Thank you for helping me even though it will cause serious damage to our people and to you..."
"..." Ghalenna can already see the damage that Ghilanna's actions will cause, but she cannot choose between the happiness of her daughter and her people.
Ghilanna opens the window and then speaks while looking at the floor. "I hope that one day you will forgive me... mom..."
Then she jumps out of the window and disappears into the trees on that cold, rainy night that never left Ghalenna's mind.
Currently, a few miles from Lucien's position.
Ghalenna rides her incredible unicorn after the fox clan's fast scouts that follow the tracks of Rein's group.
She is now not the same woman as five years ago. Ghalenna, now, is not a submissive woman who has to rely on arrogant men to protect her people.
Now she has to take care of all the women of the Alliance as the great Queen's right arm and prevent other mothers from losing their daughters because they do not have the necessary power to protect them.
"Wait!!" Ghalenna stops her uniform while talking to her group to stop.
The fox-girls scout and elven warriors with Ghalenna are confused as she points to the sky ahead. "Look there!"
"Woah!" The girls get surprised to see the large ice ships of Lucien's wives floating in the sky as if they were at sea.
Ghalenna has seen incredible examples of power from mages and other people near Eve, main her own power, but those ice ships are another level of power.
"Who are they?" A scout thinks aloud while noticing people aboard the floating ice ships.
"I have no idea, but this is our land, and we have to defend it even in the absence of our great Queen," Ghalenna speaks with resolve.
Then she looks at the scouts. "Is Rein near?"
The scout looks at the footprints on the ground while responding. "Yes, his footprints are everywhere, he staggered through here, and... it looks like he was being chased by a big beast and a woman."
"Big beast and a woman?" Ghalenna thinks to herself out loud as she looks at the ice ships in the sky.
Then she makes her unicorn move forward. "Come on! We have to find Rein and find out who these mysterious people are."
Ghalenna's group follows Rein's tracks and soon arrives in a small clearing beside a small river. Ghalenna is shocked to see a beautiful hybrid of werewolf and fox woman on the riverbank, stepping on Rein's body, which is very swollen as if someone had filled him with various things. There is also a long scar on his belly, probably where the woman filled his body with who knows what.
"Stop!!!" Ghalenna shouts. She doesn't know if Rein is still alive, but if the woman pushes him into the river in that state, he will surely die, and although she doesn't like him, she wants him to continue suffering as Eve ordered.
"Continue," Lucien says to Scarlett while looking at Ghalenna, especially at her beautiful face.
Scarlett slightly moves Rein's body with her feet, wondering how he will feel when he wakes up at the bottom of the river with his belly full of stones and unable to swim to the surface as he dies in agony.
Ghalenna and her group are shocked by Lucien's appearance. But his beauty has little impact on the mature elven Queen who actually hates all men.
"Who the hell are you?!?" Ghalenna asks in an annoyed tone, but she doesn't show any hostile attitude.
Lucien, lying at the base of a tree, continues to play with a red dagger in his between his fingers while looking at Ghalenna, ignores her question, and thinks out loud. "You really look like her."
[Her???] Ghalenna can't help but be confused by Lucien's comment.
But she quickly focuses on Rein's situation again. "I don't know who you are or what you have against Rein, but he must continue to pay for his transgressions in a painful way as my Queen has ordered."
Lust, who always makes Lucien aware of everything she knows, comments with him about Ghilanna. 'Incredible! She's actually in the third layer of the Mortal Realm even away from Eve.'
'Is this very unusual?' Lucien asks as he continues to gaze at Ghalenna.
Lust quickly explains. 'Just as your demonic energy stays longer and longer within your wives' body as you develop bonds of pleasure, Pride's demonic energy can stay within Eve's followers for longer depending on how much they respect her as well as the relationship between them.'
She continues. 'But just as if your girls go too long without feeling the pleasure that only you can give them, the demonic energy inside them disappears, so does Pride's energy. In fact, her energy can quickly disappear because away from their leader, people can quickly start to stop adoring them.'
'However, this woman seems to respect Eve so much, and Eve probably also respects her a lot, to the point of even distant from each other, there is still a lot of Pride's demonic energy inside her, helping her to keep getting strong. But of course, this level of power is due to the fact that she was probably one of Eve's first followers, and if given the same time in your bed, the results would be much better.' Lust finishes.
'Do you mean that she has high latent talent?' Lucien can feel Lust's intent and knows why she said those things.
Lust quickly gets to the point. 'Yes. If you take her as your woman, she will soon be incredibly powerful. I strongly recommend that you do it.'
'You know I can't take any random woman as a wife, don't you?' Lucien asks.
'Of course, you can!' Lust speaks in a proud tone.
Lucien wants to laugh, but he explains it to her. 'I don't talk about being unable to do this, but because it can ruin my relationship with Ghilanna. And you know how she is getting stronger and stronger thanks to our relationship being so good.'
'You have a point.' Lust agrees.
Although their conversation was quick because it was mental, Ghalenna became increasingly impatient. "Why are you not talking?!"
Lucien continues to smile at Ghalenna and then points up. The mature elf quickly looks up and sees an ice platform descending from the sky with several people on it.
"It can not be!!" Ghalenna is shocked, not with the floating platform or the mysterious people on it, but with a specific person, the one she thought she would never see again.
On the floating platform, beside Angela, Ghilanna looks at Ghalenna with a neutral expression. "Mom..."
Ghalenna shakes her head slowly in shock. "No... I don't have a daughter anymore... she abandoned me a long time ago."
As Angela lands the floating platform in front of the group, Ghilanna looks at Scarlett. "Don't care about her."
"No..." Ghalenna speaks in a neutral tone, even a little respectful to Scarlett.
*Splash*
After being pushed by Scarlett, Rein's body falls into the river and sinks quickly due to the weight of the stones in his belly, also waking him up.
Despite being very strong, due to stones being inside him, he is unable to swim upwards. Also, Lucien's cum still inside his body keeps him from dying fast, making his death slow and very painful.
Upon seeing Rein's body fall into the water, Ghalenna thinks about how she is failing to follow Eve's orders and quickly dash towards the river, which is also the direction of Scarlett and Ghilanna.
She draws her sword not to attack but just to scare the girls, however…
*Clang*
Despite having incredible speed nowadays, Ghalenna is taken by surprise when Ghilanna, using even faster speed, appears in front of her and strikes her sword with her emerald bow, making the blade fly from Ghalenna's hands with a wide metallic sound.
Ghalenna jumps back while Ghilanna lands in the same place. While the mother has a shocked expression on her face, the daughter is as calm and serene as ever.
"..."
"I'm your son-in-law." Lucien's charming voice breaks the silence, shocking Ghalenna even more.
