CHAPTER 59 5 DAYS IN HELL
Axion laid her gently on the bed and sat beside her.
” Are you feeling pain anywhere? Does your chest hurt? Do you need anything? ” He questioned all at once, making Phoenix laugh.
” I’m perfectly fine Axion. I should be the one asking you that. Your wounds…” She placed her hand on his chest.
” Does it still hurt? ” She asked, running her hands on the bandages covered in blood. Axion held her hand and placed a kiss on it.
” I don’t even feel the pain anymore. You’re more important to me than it ” He expressed and Phoenix pouted sadly.
” Let me heal it completely then ” She made to unwrap the bandages but Axion stopped her.
” You need to get some rest first. You can do that some other time ” He said.
” Just let me…”
” Don’t be stubborn Phoenix. Get some rest first ” Axion helped her lay back fully on the bed and covered her up. He placed his hand on her face, caressing it tenderly.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
His hand on her face was all Phoenix needed to relax and slowly, she fell asleep. She really needed it because she was still weak and tired from all the stress of fighting Medusa.

Medusa all of a sudden appeared in a cave. She was wheezing and breathing heavily like she had just run away from what almost killed her. Her face was still bruised and covered in a lot of blood which resulted from Phoenix banging on the wall mercilessly.
She almost saw death in her hands and had never been so grateful that Phoenix was a Red Phoenix like she was now.
” Medusa ” The terrifying voice of the King of all Dark Genie boomed, startling her. She almost forgot she was in his cave.
” Yes, my lord ” She bowed immediately.
” Where are you coming from? ” He demanded and she gulped nothing in fear. She can’t tell him she went to kill his possession. He will fucking murder her.
” I was battling with a Phoenix ” She answered.
” And she did this to you? ” It was more like a mocking question making her look down in shame.
” You can’t even handle a Phoenix, how can I trust you can bring Axion to me without getting killed by him? ” Medusa looked up, glaring at him. She felt like knocking his tooth out because of what he said but she wouldn’t dare.
” I was almost close to getting Axion when she attacked me off guard ” She lied instead.
” Lies, Medusa, lies!! ” The voice thundered angrily and for the first time, Medusa quivered in fear.
” You had never wanted to bring Axion to me, never! You only wanted to kill him and take his place! ”
” You thought I wouldn’t find out that I had a son, who you have been hiding from me for 27 years?! ” Medusa’s eyes almost popped out. How the fuck did he find out?
” I trusted you Medusa and you lied to me!! ” Medusa trembled greatly and slumped to the ground in terror. She knew she was doomed. He now knows everything and won’t fucking spare her for lying to him.
” I’m so sorry my lord, please forgive me. I didn’t mean to lie to you…
” I don’t forgive Medusa, you especially know that!! ” The voice roared and a whimper left Medusa’s lips.
” Please my lord, give me a second chance, please ” Her lips trembled as she cried. She was dead terrified and was praying for the ground to open up and swallow her. She rather die in the hands of Phoenix than in his hands. He was fucking heartless and cruel.
” Medusa!! ” The voice groaned in frustration. The King of all Dark Genie was really furious at Medusa for hiding the truth from him and trying to backstab him.
But still… she was his most loyal subject and of course, the woman he loves. He possibly can’t just kill her even though he badly wanted to.
” Fine, I’ll give you a second chance ” He finally said and happiness scoured through Medusa.
” But I’m going to punish you for going against my order ” Medusa’s heart skipped in fear.
” I’m ready to face any punishment you give me, my lord ” She managed to say.
” Five days. For five days, you are going to survive in hell without your powers ”
” The Hell of Darkness?! ” Medusa exclaimed in shock, her eyes almost plucking out.
The Hell of Darkness is a realm where any Dark Genie who goes against the King of all Dark Genie were punished brutally and if possible killed. Medusa was once in charge of the gate before she was chosen as his woman and she has never been inside before.
But one thing she knows was that the Hell of Darkness was Hell! Anyone who survived after spending just a day there is fucking powerful, talk more of surviving five days there. She is going to die before she even comes out.
” Please my lord, isn’t the punishment rather too brutal? ” She decided to ask but regretted it immediately.
” Are you questioning my injunctions?! ” The voice made the whole cave vibrate and Medusa tremble.
” No my lord, please forgive me ” She mumbled immediately.
” Get up! ” She sprang up without hesitation.
” After spending five days in Hell, you will never in your entire years of living lie to me. Now depart at once before I change my mind and end you now! ”
Medusa tightened her fist as raw anger shot through her. This was all Axion and Phoenix’s fault. Because of them, she is going to suffer in hell for five effing days.
” I will surely make you two pay when I’m back. I swear with my life! ” She growled inside before disappearing.
Immediately after she left, the voice roared in anger and frustration causing the walls of the cave to crack.
” Things aren’t fucking going the way I planned it, Medusa just ruined everything! ”
” Axion!!…
” You are really testing my patience by not accepting to serve me. You really want to see what I’m capable of, don’t you?! ”
” Well…
” It’s high I handle this whole thing myself. It’s high time, I make you pay for rejecting my sovereignty over you Axion… I am going to make… you… fucking… pay!! “
