Chapter 98: The Moment Of Truth - 2

Silja's name gained Donovan's interest as he looked up at his father.

"She turned a perfectly fine horse into a ragged one with just one touch. Does that ring any bells in your head?" Zachary paused as he said that.

"An ability to control living beings?" Donovan's eyebrows creased together as he mulled over what his father said.

"Yes, that's right," Zachary's lips arched in a smile.

"She is not human. She is a half-witch," Zachary completed his sentence and Donovan's eyes widened in shock.

"A witch?" He asked his father in disbelief.

"Pure blooded witch to be precise," Zachary said. Donovan's eyes shone as he heard that.

"A pure-blooded Witch?" Donovan couldn't help but murmur. Isn't that what they wanted the most to break the curse?

But can a half-witch can help them break the curse?

"But what do you mean by half-witch? Is she half-human?" Donovan furrowed his eyebrows. Since Silja was from Atlanea he guessed that she could be the illegitimate child of the human king.

"That's the interesting part here. Even though she is known as a human princess she has no blood relation to any human," Zachary said. The more Donovan heard the more he became confused.

It was like the girl he was thinking of as a liar was a lot more than that. "I gave her blood to Orphelia and according to her one of her parents is from the royal family of Witches while the other's bloodline is mysterious that even Orphelia couldn't locate it," Zachary said.

"But she has concluded that whatever she has received from that mysterious parent of her is way too powerful," 

Listening to what he said Donovan couldn't believe what he was hearing. 

Not a human. Half pure-blooded witch. And one of the parents has a mysterious bloodline.

Till now Donovan has thought that he was a very mysterious and powerful person but hearing about Silja he felt that he was probably nothing.

His head was now working at high speed. All the events from the day first started to play in his head.

No wonder she was able to defeat his best knight in second place.

And he thought that taking down that witch that day was just a matter of luck but it looks like that wasn't the case. It wasn't luck but her overwhelming power that made her defeat the witch swiftly.

And the current he felt the other day was not his illusion but it was her doing.

Everything started to fall in its place now. 

Suddenly Donovan's lips arched in a smile.

'That little devil…'

But now the question was...

"So how did you convince them to send this 'gem of a human king' to the North?" Donovan asked his father. If she was that powerful why the human king has kept her hidden till now and also sent her to the den of dragon's. Everyone knows how much dragons wish to get hold of a witch who has pure blood in their veins.

"I didn't convince them. I forced them," Zachary admitted.

Donovan's burrows twitched.

Does that mean she was forced to come here and that means she wasn't acting all this while but her reluctance and hate towards him and north was actually the reason?

And why wouldn't she? Since she was forced by his father.

"Indeed I made a plan and never told you about her actual identity because I wanted you to figure it out yourself. I want you to marry her but in reality, I never forced you. All I did was to bring her here and apart from that everything else that happened was just pure fate," Zachary explained.

Donovan has his heart beating faster than ever as he hears what his father said.

That means she didn't lie. She was the real victim in this. Donovan look down slightly as unreadable emotions surfaced in his dark red eyes.

"You brought her here because she is important to us. But why do you have to make me marry her? We can just keep her captive," after taking control of his wild thoughts and emotions Donovan lifted his head and questioned his father.

Zachary looked at his son with humour in his eyes.

"You have seen her. Do you think she is the kind of person whom you can keep captive," Zachary asked.

Donovan couldn't help but agree with his father.

"Some people are free by nature. They can't be bought nor can you hold them captive. If you want them to stay by your side then you have to win them. And the day I saw her I knew her value and her nature. Besides her, I can't see anyone else suitable for you. Only she is capable of being your wife and next Queen of this land," the old man looked at his son with meaningful eyes. 

"She is someone that you should cherish for the rest of your life," Zachary added.

Donovan met his father's eyes and smiled a little.

His wife?

The word seems foreign to her but now that his father has said it loud unspeakable emotions started to bubble up in his heart.

Donovan didn't say anything.

"But there is something else that I have my guess about. I don't think that even the princess herself knows about her abilities and her different parents," Zachary informed Donovan.

Donovan tilted his head in question at his father.

"Yes. Looks like king Evan has kept the girl in the dark till now. And now that she is here we should take advantage of the time," Zachary suggested.

"What about her brother, Prince Benjamin?" Donovan raised his eyebrows.

"Even though our man didn't manage to give much information before he died, I'm sure that the prince will not reach here before tomorrow evening. You should leave for the hunt tomorrow as soon as possible," the old man replied. 

Donovan nodded.

Both father and son looked at each other and nodded their heads.

Soon Zachary left his chamber leaving Donovan deep in thoughts.
