Chapter 433 433 : Be my slaves
In the aftermath of Das's display of power, the atmosphere in the Silvester family's courtyard was charged with a mixture of awe, fear, and uncertainty. Das, now the focal point of every gaze, made his intentions clear in a voice that resonated with authority.
Standing beside him, Isabella looked on, a complex mix of emotions playing across her face. Das then turned his attention to the gathered members of the Silvester family, his gaze piercing and unwavering.
"I have no interest in meddling with the affairs of the Sylvester family," Das began, his voice steady. "But from this moment on, you are all my slaves. In return, I will take both Princess Isabella and Ariana as my wives. I will also restore the bloodline power of your family that I now control."
A stunned silence fell over the courtyard. The young master of the Sylvester family, fueled by anger and indignation, struggled against the invisible force holding him down. His efforts were in vain; he could only cry out in frustration, his attempts to rise fruitless.
The patriarch, still kneeling, his pride wounded but his mind sharp, recognized the gravity of the situation. "We accept your terms," he said, his voice strained. "I request that, you honour us by staying for a few days. We wish to engage in formal interactions and arrange a marriage ceremony with Princess Isabella."
Princess Isabella, upon hearing her father's words felt a whirlwind of emotions. The prospect of marriage to this stranger, who had just upended her family's legacy, was overwhelming. Yet, there was an undeniable intrigue about Das, a pull that she couldn't ignore.
Das, however, had other priorities. "My time is limited. I need to save a life. The formalities of your family are not my concern. Prepared a super sonic air jet. I must leave as soon as possible."
The patriarch, realizing the futility of arguing, nodded in resigned acceptance. "Very well. We will not delay you further, Master."
The courtyard, a silent witness to the dramatic shift in power dynamics, remained tense as Das prepared to leave. Ariana, standing by his side, looked up at him with a mixture of admiration and worry.
Within fifteen minutes, patriarch ordered 12 generals to prepare the entire army for departure along with betrothal gifts.
Das picked up the secure line to contact Eden on Skull Island. The line crackled to life, and soon Eden's voice came through, tinged with worry and urgency.

"Das, is that you? What's your ETA? Thea's condition is worsening," Eden's voice was strained, a reflection of the dire situation they were facing.
"We're en route at maximum speed. Prepare everything for the blood transfer as soon as we land. There's no time to waste," Das responded, his voice calm but underscored with a sense of urgency.
"I've got everything ready on this end. Just get here as fast as you can," Eden replied, the sound of hurried activity audible in the background.
Das glanced at the two princesses, noting their silent presence. He knew their worlds had been turned upside down, but there was no time to address the complexities of their situation now. Thea's life hung in the balance, and every second counted.
The jet continued its rapid journey, the ocean below a blur as they raced against time. Das's thoughts were focused solely on the mission – saving Thea was his top priority, and nothing would stand in his way.
In the silence that followed the call, Princess Isabella and Ariana exchanged glances, each aware of the gravity of the situation and the role Das was playing in it. Despite the chaos that had engulfed their lives, there was a mutual understanding.
As Skull Island began to appear on the horizon, Das braced himself for the task ahead.
