Ephraim said he was not going with a stranger that he have his family and friends in the magical realm.
Solomon became angry for so many reasons.One being his own son calling him the whole vampire king a stranger? It hurt his ego as the vampire king.
The second being him noticing the traces of dark magic that the witch queen tried so hard to hide with a very strong spell.
Solomon forced Ephraim and i out of the magical realm after waging war against the witches.The witches suffered a lot because of the might of my husband army and the war lasted for two years until the benevolent witch queen died while protecting and isolating the magical realm from dangers...
Queen Sylvia finished her story as she wiped a tear from her eyes when she was reminded of her pasts.
Geyra,Grace and Euphorial hugged her to comfort her as they secretly wipe away their own tears.Their mother and Ephraim really went through a lot╥﹏╥╥﹏╥⊙︿⊙
When the sad atmosphere had cleared up,Grace decided to ask for the rest of the story.
'Mother i still don't get something,how did the concubines come in?' Grace asked as she looked at Geyra who shrugged her shoulders indicating that she is as ignorant as her,Euphorial just looked at them confused.
"My dear,don't be confused my family is a bit interesting.Solomon has two concubines and the concubines have three sons,we all live together at the palace" Sylvia cleared her confusion while she looked at her daughters to explain how their family turned out like that.
"Well your father had a concubine before he married me which i got to know after our marriage.All those fifteen years i have been barren,he had been trying his luck also with Ruth (the first concubine) who happened to give birth to her first son five years before i gave birth to your brother.After i gave birth to my son while i was still in the magical realm later i heard that she birth to another son for my husband" Queen Sylvia nonchallantly as if her husband actions did not hurt her.
'What of that foolish arrogant concubine that made father a defective king?' Geyra asked about the one she disliked the most in their family.
"Aurora? Well,let me say your father whom i had thought was in love with me turned out not to.It was around the time of the great war,whenever your father came back home victorous he always throw a party and it was at that party he met with the second concubine.He fell in love with her,fucked her and bring her to the palace as a concubine.Had it been i had not been crowned as the queen when i married your father,Aurora would have become the queen" Queen Sylvia explained in daze.
Geyra punched the tree near them in anger and the tree fell to the other side creating dust and cracks on the floor.
'Get yourself together Geyra!!! What do you expect brother to do? All those fucking things happened before his eyes in the palace! What of mother? She tolerated everything because of us' Grace chastised her twin as she stood up to hold her down while Euphorial just hugged the queen.
Everything now make sense.She had been thinking what caused the emnity between witches and vampires and it turned out that it was because of Ephraim's father pride and craziness.Just because your child refused to accept you,the child you neglected for another,you decided to destroy a whole kingdom.She just know whom Ephraim got his craziness and fears from,it was from his defective father.She hope that she will be able heal him from his fears and bring him out of his shell.
Queen Sylvia got up while holding Euphorial with her.She walked towards her daughters with Euphorial and she told them to come inside the mansion and they followed her.
Inside the mansion,Queen Sylvia made sure that Geyra sat on her thigh while Grace and Euphorial sat on her sides.She patted her expressive daughter back while the other rested their heads on her shoulders.
All these years,she had been enduring in the palace the things those concubines does because of her children.She may love Solomon but she love her babies more especially her son Ephraim,He may be her mate,but she will survive without him since the feelings is not reciprocal.She went through alot before she could give birth to him and she will make sure he and his sisters live happily,they must have a loving relationship and not lust and loveless relationship like hers and their father.She knows that had it been that she wasn't the king's mate she was very sure that Solomon would not have married her.
When it was time for dinner,Kayla came to inform them so that they could eat.Queen Sylvia woke up the sleeping Geyra on her thighs while also tapping the girls on her sides.They all ate dinner and went to sleep.......
