Chapter 138
"So, you’re telling me the castle is hot because there is a doorway to the underworld somewhere in this castle? Please tell me there is something guarding that freaking door."
Amelia looked to Cyrus for the answer since she had failed to ask Killian what was stopping any and everything from using that door to come into this world.
"All gates are guarded. The devil’s dog makes sure no souls leave or any other creature that was banned from the living world," Cyrus.
"A dog? What will a dog do-"
"Cerberus is not like any dog you have here," Alastor appeared out of thin air right in front of Gina. "How could you be so stupid to think the devil’s dog would be ordinary? There is a reason why no one who is not supposed to leave the underworld makes it out. I give you a day before you meet your end in the north."
Gina felt all of her fears disappear now that the brute was betting for her to die. "I assure you that won’t happen so get used to seeing my face."
"Hmm," Alastor with a lack of faith she would make it to night time. She had annoyed him to the point of no return so he would be the one to end her. "Princess, King Killian sent me to inform you that he will be stepping away from the castle much longer than he anticipated. Please stay out of trouble. The castle guards will protect you but stay away from everyone else."
"I know," Amelia replied, tempted to roll her eyes but she couldn’t complain when someone was watching out for her safety.
"You are officially the princess’s guard here in the north. If anything happens to her, consider yourself dead. You will need to collect your uniform later and pick out a couple of men to follow your orders when it comes to protecting the princess," Alastor informed Cyrus then he looked at Gina and said, "You need to keep quiet."
