SPELLBOUND Chapter 218 - Faerie's Dress

Chapter 218 - Faerie's Dress

A dawn of a new day saw Evie heading out from the dark castle with renewed determination on her clear and beautiful face.

Clad in a faerie's dress that Zanya had brought over the night before for her to change into, Evie did not look quite so human anymore. It was a silken white gauzy material that hugged her figure beautifully from her chest to her hips before flaring out in a stunning twirl, as though she were walking amidst the frothy sea waves instead of just the flat ground. The sleeves were of the same material and was fitted from her midarms to her elbows before spreading out into bell-like sleeves that fluttered her with every movement she took as she walked. There were gold threads sewn delicately and tastefully to enhance the simplicity of the whole dress. The gold threads that were selectively embroidered into both sides of her sleeves in a b.u.t.terfly wing motif only added to her elegance and made it seemed as though she could float off the ground and fly off like a wind G.o.ddess. With her long silvery tresses unbound and floating in the slight breeze behind her as she took each step, it was hard not to mistakenly a.s.sume that Evie was a divine G.o.ddess that had descended to the mortal realm. As she reached the main door, Evie threw a royal blue cloak over this eye-catching and stunning dress she was wearing to keep off the chill.

Though the cloak had covered most of her dress and only showing the hems of her skirt and her sleeves, the men still were stunned to speechlessness from the initial sight of her. That image of her all in white and gold had all but seared itself into their minds and would be one that even time could not remove it. To them, their princess seemed to have transformed into a real G.o.ddess. She was always such a beauty but now that she had change her outfit, she certainly became even more ethereal.

And once again, the men had one thought buzzing through their minds. All of them only thought that what an unfortunate thing it was that their prince and the princess' husband was not blessed enough to catch a glimpse of this vision who was his very own beloved wife! They could only imagine that if he did see the princess in these garments, their prince would be perfectly frozen still and paralyzed at the sight of his wife.

Meanwhile, Evie paid no attention to the dazed gazes of her men and continued walking off and headed straight towards the training area. Once she was there, she walked straight up and halted in the middle of the bridge before taking a breath and closing her eyes. Somehow, she felt much better compared to her previous condition yesterday. Perhaps it was due to her deal with herself last night? Or was it because of this dress that Zanya had made her wear?

Evie felt the dress draped ever so lightly on her body. Initially she thought she would feel the cold as well as the fabric really seemed too thin and airy. However, to her pleasant surprise, she was wrong. She was not feeling a slight bit cold at all. The cloak that she had put on to ward off the chill was quite redundant. But she just left it on as she was still a little conscious of how thin and revealing the material was. But she told herself to get used to it as this was the type of clothing the faes wore.

Whatever the reason of her improved const.i.tution, she told herself to focus and do her very best today. Every single step she took forward in improving herself would take her a step closer to where Gavriel was. A small smile curved over her cherry red lips as she relaxed her entire body. She was going to do everything she could today.

In the next moment, a new dragon landed before her. The dragon was a little bigger that the three previous ones.

Seeing that it was another male, and the colour of its spikes were also a vivid red but instead of brown, it was tinted with orange. Thus, after thinking for a couple of seconds, Evie then uttered the word, "Vermillion".

"Your name will be Vermillion." She called out before confidently jumping onto the dragon's back. But as how Fir and t.i.tian had responded, Vermillion too, followed in their footsteps.

However, Evie refused to allow herself to fail again. She tried and tried until she managed to make Vermillion bring her back to the ground. She was upset that she did not manage to make him breathe out fire, but she could only hope for the last three dragons that were left to be like Crimson.

As she walked away as Vermillion flew off into the air again, her men and Zanya complimented her on her achievements, and she could only smile at them. Then after taking a short a break, she stood up again and called out for the next dragon.

This time, a male dragon that she named Khaki due to the yellowish brown colour of his spikes was also another failure. As it was with t.i.tian, she could not even manage to force him to bring her to land back on the ground.

Everyone cheered her up, but Evie was becoming more and more agitated. There were only two dragons left and Evie could not help but fear if these two will also be hard to control and she would fail again.

The day was ending when she called for the next dragon. It was yet another male with spikes that were as green as hillside gra.s.s. "Verdant," Evie said, and she spent the rest of the day trying to control it.

The men and Zanya could see her struggling in her efforts. They had been giving each other looks for a while now. All of them had wanted to tell her that she must not push herself too much. But none of them could speak out as they could see how hard she was trying and how desperate she looked. They did not have the heart to interrupt her and tell her to rest. At the same time, they did not know their princess could be this incredibly

persistent and stubborn. She truly reminded them of someone. Their prince.
