Chapter 23 - Out with the old, in with the New

The next day, as Esther had deep in her sleep, when there was a knock.

Esther opened her eyes and looked around, when she heard the knock once more.

Esther rose up from her chambers still half asleep and went to open the door to meet the Prince once more.

The prince smiled cheerfully after glanced down to see her unusual black laced lingerie with some visible black panties that had been barely shown, he said his good morning and invited her to have breakfast with Amanda's family

As Esther came to focus on who started talking too, she remembered where she was and looked down on herself.

"Ha" Esther chuckled when did she become so vulgar? She also forgotten she was suppose to blend in with the Empire's society

" You must think I'm doing this on purpose, as Esther blushed as she looked back up.

"My apologizes for my rude appearance, yes, I will be dressed and will meet you down in a few minutes." As Esther smiled back at the man who had full views of her body two times in a row

"Although, I do find your fashion taste intriguing. I do not wish for others to see you in this manner, your just too beautiful." As Ethan eyes trailed down, back up to her face.

Before Esther could respond " also,I look forward to you joining us Lady Esther." As Ethan took her hand and kissed the outside of it before he parted

Esther placed her hand to her temples and started rubbing them. " such interesting men I find" as she laughed

Esther, heard another knock on the door. Only this time it was one of the maid's to help her start her get ready for the day.

Moments later, right before the doors had opened. Esther heard Francesca's voice as she began to giggle.

Esther began to open the doors as everyone became still and looked over to Esther who had been dresses in one of there custom made long, dresses the were black of course with white lace along Esther's cuffs and ruffles

The atmosphere that was once welcoming due to Esther's mind control, and become undone

The Marquis who had once became excited, still had a similar aura to him. Only, Esther noticed his eyes tracing her body as she walked over and sit down.

"Uh, who allowed this peasant to sit with us again? It was either Mandy or you dear that brought home a stay, you could of atleast taught it some decent manners. As the woman rolled her eyes.

The mother looked back at Esther, " I will say she is beautiful though, so I see the obsession. "

Esther grinned in a sinister expression" I thought we could of played longer with each other. Oh well. "

Esther glanced back at Prince Ethan, " Your opinion may of changed of me after this evening."

Prince Ethan, had a chill run down his spine as well as Amanda. Who knew first hand what was exactly about to go down.

"Mother!, Father!. Remember, Esther became my sister? Why are you both acting strangly now?"As Amanda broke into a sweat

Francesca was sitting next to Amanda placed her hand over hers to comfort " There, There. You do not have to put a front any longer Mandy, I will protect you now."

In a instant, Esther flew and pinned Francesca down with her hand gripped onto her neck as she added 1/4th of her strength, while breaking the chair she was sitting in.

Esther glared her Jewels in a fierce expression while bareing her fangs. " How are you going to do that,lady Saint? It seems you can't even move a finger."

"Ack! Get your grime hands off of me!" As Francesca struggled so much, he couldn't even lift a finger, let alone cast one of her spells.

"Uh...M..mandy... what did you bring into our home?" As Amanda's mother panicked while the father looked around to the servant's

" Ha.... see. I was going to be a good daughter, and live peacefully with my new family." Esther levitate the sharp knives or forks that were On the table and thrown at the family. Piercing there cloths to the wall.

Esther looked back at the Saint, who stared at with tears flowing down her cheeks." You said, that I was evil. Did you not? Then that's what I'll give you. "

As Esther ripped her dress to the point to where it came off.

" see this world has only seen my good side up until now, in my old world I was the merciless being who put fear into people's eyes. Whether you were went by The Goddess of Arianna, doesn't mean shit to me. Just as the stupid Goddess of the underworld, Lilith. Those bitches both look down on me." As Esther remembered the Prince and his servant were in the room.

"I'm afraid, I've not shown you the side I wanted you to see. Though I wish to what happened today to not leave this room" as Esther became stern

"I..I understand Lady Esther" as Ethan turned to servant and knocked him out behind his head. And returned to his seat to enjoy the show

Esther laughed hysterically, as she turned back to the woman who became pale due to being strangled, feared and humiliated

Esther leaned down to her ear. " Now really, are you pulling this stunt over a man who has shown no interest to you or do you just hate the fact that the person who is supposed to be weak to the saintess, has overpowered her?" As Esther grinned.

" I'll truly show you why you should never mess with, as you people call us. Monsters" as Esther, took the hand to control the others in the room was now set a blaze with a blue and black flame, placed right underneath her neck.

Esther grunted in disgust " I normally like my meals raw. But since you have thoroughly messed up my living arrangements. I guess I'll have to cook you alive."

"Ack!" Francesca tried to speak " Your..your Highness, p..please help...ha! Me!"

As Ethan finished his breakfast, he looked at the folks of the house " I must say, your meal was a bit bland. You should teach your cook about seasoning"

As Ethan ignored Francesca, she became enraged.

Esther laughed " I didn't realize you had the energy to become mad right now, not with your life on the line. "

"Ahh, that reminds me. Did you like the present I left for you in the town?" As Esther loosened her grip

Francesca looked back and remembered there was a report of a dead body. " Th..that was you?"

Esther whispered in her ear, " of course it was."

Esther took her nails and sliced an artery on the saint's collarbone. " Well you better start praying then"

As Esther dug her fangs, while pinning her prey down with more pressure and force from before.

As Esther drank, she realized the family needed to be dealt with. So Esther broke apart from her feast and summoned an archdemon to command them to get rid of them.

Amanda spoke up " w..wait! Please don't harm them, we will never speak to anyone about what happened today. I promise, we will pretend as none of this happened and you can continue being my sister."

" Mandy, I don't think your parents want to play house with me any longer. Especially your father, I think he would rather take me as a mistress. " As Esther giggled

Ethan became mad at the thought, and through his fork at the Marquis, landing it into his arm " ah! N..no!!! As he screamed in pain

" You and your wife had already told me you would agree to your new daughter's engagement me to me" as Ethan strode up with a knife pressed up against his neck

" I realize she's beautiful, actually. She's too beautiful. I will not allow you to covet what is mine" as he presses the knife into his neck

" yo..your Highness, I don't know what she's talking about. I love my wife. But how can you allow a creature to creature such a scene." As The Marquis looked at the bloody site before him

" See. This is what I'm talking about, now only are you claiming that 'My Wife' is a liar, and now you have the audacity to question my judgement?" As Ethan glared into the man's soul

" Well. Since your about to take your last breath, I will tell you. First off, I watched you give my woman with your undressing eyes and second of all, whatever My wife sees fit, I will not interfere. However, I cannot stand by after your remarks. " Ethan, sliced his neck. Causing him to reach his death first.

" D...daddy?" As Amanda cried out

The wife who just watched the scene unfold

"I..if your taking his life, take mine as well. " As tears began to fall

" Even after watching your husband look at another woman infront of you?" As Ethan wiped his knife with a handkerchief

"It is not the first time he's had an affair, I've caught him making love to multiple women and to men. Even so, I still love him. Please allow me to follow him to the afterlife" as tears poured a down fall

Ethan spoke " That is up to my woman." As he looked at Esther who looked at her new partner in crime

"Ha! Sure you can get rid of her, I didn't like her attitude anyways." As Esther looked down to her barely unconsious prey.

Before Esther could finish her prey, they had become interrupted by guards and holy priest that had charged in.

With the force of many light magic , they all pointed there magic towards Esther, while the guards tried to take her down with force.

Though Esther was too strong, they couldn't grab with her with hardly any strengths.

Esther manipulated more items up into the air and thrown to the folks, and flew up into the sky and summoned as many dragons and beasts as her army, while looking down at those who were trying to target her

At her Summon, along with her call.

Esther looked down to her loved ones had also instantly appeared

" Ha!!" The twins were in there dragon forms flying at each of her sides. Looking at those who dared to threatened her, while Thor appeared out from the back of the woods in his gigantic Fenrir form that surrounded the house along with his pact that had grown in impeccable size, baring there fangs

Esther looked down and had seen Ethan bring detained. " I don't think so" with the will of her power she broke his cuffs and guided a dragon to lift him anyway from the guards

As the site had truly become fearful one, the guards and priests had brought arrows for a backup weapon and began to aim them at the creatures before them.

As Esther commanded, the dragons and wolves had unleashed and began to attack the guards, who were aimed at them..

"Ah!" The guards began dying, one by one. As well as the priests

An hour or two later the Emperor and Empress arrived at the scene with there high mages and more knights

Esther looked at the couple, and raised her hand for her allies to pause what they were doing.

Esther lowered herself, so she could meet while she had a blueflamed arrow pointed at then, and held it.

" Your kingdom has truly welcomed me, I just thought I would repay there kindess." As Esther smiled

The Emperor had thought about events that had unfolded, " I will refrain my men. Will you please give us a chance to apologize on behave of our Empire."

"It's easy for you to stay, since your life is now in my hands. Your mates who you've commanded to attack me, will not work on me or my spouses. " As Esther glared at the man before her

"We have misplaced our judgement, you have every right to be angry. Our kind for as long as I can remember have not been kind to those who are different." As the Emperor raised his hand

" Oh, that much I can see for yourself. Your so called Saint has given me the same courtesy." As Esther glared down to the woman who was given treatment

"I only ask we agree to a treaty with you, I know our son has wanted to marry you. If you both are to marry then no one in the Empire will have a say in it. Not even the saintess. " As the Emperor began to sweat

" Your son has already sworn himself to me, how about I rid of you and claim this kingdom for myself?" As Esther grinned

"That way,our kind can truly live together amongst you humans and to end the enslaving of those who are nonhuman." As Esther began to become more fierce.

The Empress, who had enough of the man's words next to him. Took a dagger, and sliced off his neck and looked back at Esther.

" There's no reason to try to reason with a man, isn't that right? As the Empress smiled at Esther.

" Let's have a chat, shall we?" As the Empress wiped her husbands blood off of her.

Esther who didn't want to give her the opportunity, kept her attack pointed at her.

"No, how about you say it here." As Esther smiled back

" Oh dear, if that is what you want. I guess it cannot be helped" the Empress instantly summoned her staff, and blasted her high leveled holy magic at Esther, attacking the side of her ear.

Well, atleast she tried too.

Sylvian had teleported when he saw the scene unfold, and casted a barrier to protect Esther. Causing the attack to bounce off

The Empress laughed " Your quite the temptress .

Esther who just watched the protective barrier appear looked down and saw Sylvian.

" Ha. There all too good for me" as Esther looked back at the Empress and let go of her arrow, and landing the hit

The moment the arrow strikes, the people around them including the knights had witnessed the exact moment.

New fear began to rise as The Empire 's Emperor and Empress became deceased.

Ethan spoke up" To all who has witnessed today's events. Today is a day, that the Empire you knew before, is no more. Retreat to your homes or businesses. We discuss what will happen further shortly"

Esther had an eerie feeling, there was still the Empire's church and the saint would be recovered some time in the near future. So she needed to prepare.

As Esther landed on the ground, she was greeted by her husbands and soon to be husband. Esther realized she had been covered in blood still when Ethan approached. " if you like, you are welcomed to come to the Palace with me and get cleaned up. "

Esther hesitated for a moment when Thor spoke up as he wrapped his arms around her waist and pressed his lips against her neck, tasting the blood for earlier.

"Whatever it is you want to do. Just let us know. Whether you want to stay here and rule over the Empire or come back with us and begin your own. " As Thor stroked her arms as he brought her into his embrace

Killian and Kyrell kneeled down before Esther and took both of her hands into there's, as they kissed the palm of her hands. " Not only have we completed the palace but we have also added on 10 pavilions incase you wanted to bring in anymore lovers as well, that isn't the only one we have completed. We have also complete redone our whole city and surrounding areas, so whenever you are ready to come back to your new home. Not only us, but your people are waiting to meet you as well." As they finished

Esther took her hands and stroked each other there heads. " why are you so good to me?" As She pressed her lips against there's, meeting there tongues. One after the other.

They truly misses each other's warmth. Before, they could deepened there kisses and go further, Esther broke there kisses apart, and ran her thumbs against there lips

"Actually the throne now goes to my brother Prince Ezra. So once I settle things down here, if you will have me I will also meet up with you once I am finished with my affairs here."As Ethan still wanted to have some time alone with Esther

Sylvian who had also been standing there had spoken up. "I also wanted to tell you, that I am now able to create anything I want with ease now. As well as a forest, if I so wish too. What I am saying is, I've told you. I will go where you go as well. " As Esther looked up at her newest lover

Esther sighed " That leaves Dillon and Zoey"

" For now. I do think it would be wise to go over a new strategy. Might I have your all of your time this evening?" As Esther pondered

Of course none of the men hesitated, including the prince. " of course" as they answered in sync

Esther giggled shall we get going? As Esther looked saw Amanda looking off into the distance.

Esther held out her hand " would you like to come with me?"

Amanda who had nothing left in her looked up at the woman who just turned the Empire upside down. " Alright." As she held on to it

Then they had left for the Palace
