Chapter 185: The Oath

So that was the reason why king Zachary insisted on Silja to participate in the bride choosing ceremony.

Actually, something happened when Silja was in Atlanea and she hid it from everywhere.

For the first time, Benjamin became angry with Silja.

"Ahh..ahh that's not all," Donovan smiled even brightly.

"So you know what it means to have the ability to control the living beings," Donovan added.

Benjamin didn't say anything but he was hearing him with his heart in his mouth.

"This kind of ability is very rare. Humans can not have it," Donovan explained.

"What do you mean?" Benjamin whipped his head. 

Humans can not have that ability?

Silja is not human?

Benjamin received a hard blow.

"That's right," Donovan's red eyes shone brightly.

"So my father found a witch to run a ritual on princess Silja's blood. And do you know what we found?" Donovan lifted his eyebrows.

By now Benjamin was sitting on the edge. His heart started to race wildly and his forehead was sweating profusely.

"Ahh... What's wrong, Prince Benjamin? Why are you sweating so much?" Donovan asked, showing fake concern.

"Don't try to stall things. Say what you want to say," Benjamin said loudly.

"We found that Silja is not human but a witch," Donovan spilt the beans at the end.

"A witch?" Benjamin's eyes widened.

"How could that be?" Benjamin shook his head firmly.

"You don't have to pretend anymore, Prince Benjamin. I have known from long ago that Silja is not your biological sister nor does she have anything to do with your parents,"

Benjamin lowered his head as he heard Donovan.

Donovan didn't say anything and let Benjamin digest the news.

Benjamin looked down for a moment then he suddenly looked up.

"So what if she is not related to us by blood?" Benjamin lifted his head.

"It might not have any problems if she has known it already from the start but she doesn't. And you might have already guessed about what would happen if she found out?" Donovan lifted his eyebrows.

Benjamin narrowed his eyes. He couldn't get what Donovan was trying to convey.

"As per my understanding of Silja, I can tell that she will be angry for keeping her in dark for so many years," 

Donovan added.

Benjamin was going to say something but as soon as he opened his mouth Donovan stopped him.

"Hear me out first before saying anything," 

"I think you missed something in what I said about Silja's bloodline. She belongs to the family of royal Witches," 

A thoughtful look settled on Benjamin's face.

"You mean…" Benjamin's eyes widened. He was shocked that he didn't dare to complete his sentence.

"Yes...I don't know to what extent but she is related to Kruel in some ways," Donovan confirmed Benjamin's doubt.

"How could that be?" Benjamin just couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"You and I already know what type of person Kruel is. If Kruel found out that there is someone alive with royal blood in their veins, only God knows what he will do..." Donovan deliberately left the sentence incomplete.

Donovan had already guessed that Benjamin would be hard to pursue so he caught the main nerve where it hurt the most.

"And what will happen if Silja found out that she belongs to the royal family of Witches and decided to side with them? Can you guess what will become of your sister by staying at his side," Donovan rolled out another possibility.

Benjamin shut his mouth and didn't say anything.

"If I told her now that her own family has tried to hide things from her for so many years she will be hurt and might cut her relationship with you too," 

Benjamin's forehead creased as he heard what Donovan said.

Donovan was openly threatening her.

Benji looked at the dragon prince sitting across him with narrowed eyes. Suddenly his eyes fell on something moving behind Donovan.

It was his pet yellow snake, baring his tongue in the direction of Donovan and ready to bite at once if given a signal.

The small yellow reptile was sitting at the edge of the window with his upper body raised High in the air.

Benjamin looked at Deca and a thought crossed his head.

Huh, one bite from Deca and the man who was threatened now will be rolling on the floor.

How will Donovan be able to threaten him anymore if that happened?

But that wasn't a good idea. Benjamin dismissed that thought immediately. 

He moved his fingers slightly and Deca noticed his signal and turned around and left silently.

Right now he has to focus on the matter of Silja.

His head was trying to wrap his head around everything he heard.

What Donovan said was extremely shocking.

Actually, when he left Atlanea his father had already told him about how Silja ended up in their family but none of them knew anything about her origin.

She was just normal till all these years as she grew up but she has never shown any sign of being a witch and thus they had never thought about the possibility of her being a witch.

Seems like things have been direr than he has imagined.

"Seems like I was wrong," Benjamin looked up at Donovan.

Donovan was taken aback as he heard that.

He furrowed his eyebrows and looked at the stubborn young man sitting in front of him.

"Well, I shouldn't have tried to stop her from marrying you," Benjamin replied.

It didn't take him long to realize the whole situation.

"That means…." Donovan lifted his eyebrows.

"Yes. I shouldn't have opposed you," Benjamin nodded his head.

"Why the sudden change?" Donovan just couldn't believe what he was hearing. It turned out to be so smooth that he couldn't believe what Benjamin was saying.

Was the man playing some tricks on him?

The change in his attitude was so abrupt that it was unbelievable.

"I might look stubborn but I will always want the best for my sister...no matter if I'm related to Silja by blood or not she will always remain as my sister in my heart," Benjamin added after a small pause.

"If Kruel came for Silja there is no way that humans could protect her but if she is with you she will be safer," Benjamin added.

"Huh, now you got the point," Donovan nodded and smiled.

"After all, letting her stay with you is safer than letting Kruel take her in his control," Benjamin added.

Donovan smiled seeing that Benjamin was actually very understanding.

"So that means you will not stop her from marrying her?" Donovan paused a question.

"Well, that depends on your intention of marrying her," Benjamin leaned back.

"Marriage is a reunion of heart and I like your sister," Donovan smiled.

"Do you think I'm a fool to believe that? You have already said that your father sent her an invitation to marriage after he found out about her abilities," Benjamin may be a bit overprotective but he wasn't stupid.

"Yes that was indeed the reason my father invited her to the bridal ceremony but let me clear this to you that if I agreed to marry her it is completely because of her own," Donovan replied.

"You might not know me clearly but let me tell you that if I wanted to use your sister for some personal gains I have many other ways to do that and marrying her personally doesn't include that," Donovan would have never done that given her personality.

"Do you want me to believe just because you said so?" Benjamin lifted his eyebrows.

"What should I do to make you believe me?" Donovan raised his eyebrows.

"Make a sacred promise with me," Benjamin said.

Donovan narrowed his eyes.

"What type of promise?" 

"About Silja's safety and well-being," Benjamin replied.

Donovan thought for a bit before nodding his head gently.

He then stood up and took out a small dagger that he was carrying with him.

He opened it and extended it in front of Benjamin.

Benjamin looked up at him before he also stood up and took the dagger from his hand.

He ran his fingers gently on the sharp edge of the dagger. The little things were shiny and sharp enough to cut into even dragon skin.

Donovan opened his palm and held it in front of Donovan.

Benjamin hesitated for a second before he put cut ruthlessly on Donovan's hand. Blood instantly trickled down on the floor from his hand.

Donovan's face remains unchanged as if that small wound was even inferior to an ant bite for him.

Then Benjamin cut down his own palm with the same dagger and both men held each other's hand with their wounded arms.

"I'm prince Benjamin Castemont of Atlanea is asking a promise from you that you will keep my sister safe no matter what and always put her safety and happiness first before anything else," Benjamin spoke up.
