The sound of chattering plates were heard along with the whispering of noises. Lilia stood still with her gaze fixed on the dishes as she washed them slowly, her mind far away from her. After Adolphus' execution, she awoke to the realization and cried her eyes out until there were no more tears left to shed. The soldiers drew her into the dungeon and starved her throughout that day. Lilia couldn't eat anything either, her mouth was sore and her heart was bitter. All she could do was stare at space and bite her nails, her head almost running wild with thoughts. "She looks like a slave, poor princess" the voice of a maid nearby accomapined by a burst of loud laughter cut through her thoughts. Lilia didn't say a word but fixed her little strength on the plates she washed, her life didn't make any more sense to her so it isn't worth living. Lilia heard footsteps behind her, she could feel the eyes of someone staring at her, "You stink!" A familiar voice cut her through. Lilia's eyes na
Lilia roared loudly, her body filled with anger as she stared at both men before her. The great light from her eyes brightened the room as both men scanned around in fear as their lips began to tremble. Lilia's face began to transform, hairs began to grow rapidly on her face, her teeth elongated and they became pointy and so sharp that the tip twinkled to the touch of the light. Her ears began to grow longer in the form of a wolf and her fingers grew long and sharp.With a tremendous fury, the chains around her broke into several bits as it scattered round the room which began to shake. Both soldiers looked terrified, they knelt on the as their legs became so weak that they couldn't stand, their eyes in the princess who transformed into a being they have never seen in their life. Lilia roared, her voice loud as thousands of wolf's, shd felt a great strength begin to grow in her, at once she moved her right hand and a great force pushed the soldiers towards the wall and they hit the wa
The hallway to the dungeon was so dark and an awful smell filled the atmosphere. Disgusted, Suna placed a hand over her nose and walked towards the dungeon where Lilia was kept. The soldier led the way and the more they strolled in, the more it became silent and darker. Soon, they approached Lilia's cell, the soldier pushed the gate open and Suna strolled in, her eyes scanned around in irritation. Her gaze rested on the body of the dead soldier and next to him was Lilia who stared at her motionlessly. Suna inspected Lilia and was shocked to find a clean dress over her, she stood confused and wondered who gave her the cloth, anger gently rose in her."So, I can see that you are stronger than you look" Suna asserted and walked slowly towards Lilia, her sharp eyes not leaving the girl who glared at her emotionlessly. Lilia didn't say a word, she watched Suna who came closer to her, their eyes locked and the deep hatred they have for each other grew strongly.Lilia's silence annoyed Su
Wild birds flew around the woods, their loud cry added more sentiment to the atmosphere. The soil was moist and each leaves on trees began to winter down, their dry leaves fell slowly as the time went by. Deep inside the soil, Adolphus laid still, his eyes were tightly shut and his fingers moved slowly in a way that each bone might crack if aggressively moved.A moth crawled on his leg, Adolphus felt the ticklish feeling but stayed mute not moving a part of his leg. Slowly, the moth crawled to his stomach and began to head to his face. At once, Adolphus' eyes opened and he could see clearly in the dark soil. His throat was dry and he felt a string tied around his feet. With raised head, he looked down and realized that a rope was tied around his leg. He could feel his body begin to burn, sweat trickled down his face but surprisingly, he felt no pain and the incident that happened before he fell asleep crept into his mind. The soldiers thought he was dead not knowing his immortality
Lilia stood at the kitchen counter, a plate in her hand and a clean towel at the other. Carefully, she cleaned each plate one after the other to avoid any stain. Hebana stood at a point and observed each maids as they carried on with their duties. Her gaze got fixed on Lilia who stood quietly to herself, her eyes fixed on the plates she arranged. With an evil thought, Henana smiled and walked towards her, as she got towards Lilia who held a plate in her hand, Hebana looked at the plate and realized that it's one of the queen's special plates. Without wasting time, she hit Lilia's hand and the plate dropped to the floor and shattered into pieces. The noise attracted the maids present, they turned to Lilia and began to whisper to themselves.Lilia stared at the broken plates with stunned eyes, she turned to her side and saw Hebana staring at her with an evil smirk, at once, she knew that she was the once behind this and Lilia's eyes hardened in anger. "You have guts to break the Quee
Queen Suna paced back and forth, her sharp eyes fixed in space as she rampaged through her undecided mind. Lilia is becoming a thorn in her flesh and she has to get rid of her as soon as possible. It was a relief that she hasn't developed her powers, Suna knows that when Lilia does, getting to her will be very dangerous so she has to attack now that she doesn't have her witch's powers yet. Unfortunately for her, her daughter Sarah is so useless and does not possess any witch powers, she knew that on the day of her birth. But Lilia knew that her niece would possess witch powers. As Suna paced around, she remembered a time her mother called her and her twin Mena. It was prophesied in the witches coven that one of them will produce daughters and one will be powerless. And for Sarah to be that child, she knew that Lilia powers will come to play one day and the thought of that infuriated her. Suna gnashed her teeth in anger, she must let Lilia die there in the coffin. The soldiers report
Lilia opened her eyes to the sound of approaching footsteps, she could hear whispering but she couldn't fathom their words and she grew curious to know what they were talking about. She woke up hours ago to total darkness, with the strength left in her, she kicked and screamed but all fate was lost, she is locked up in here until someone comes to save her. Exhausted, she closed her eyes and inhaled deeply. She is a witch and should be able to cast some powerful spells but she knows none or anything relating to a witch. Her mother's words about her real identity ran in her head, her transformation baffled her even till this day, all these while in her life, she never knew that she is a werewolf, the same being she never believed existed, the same being she go deep in the cave and was terrified to look at. What will Adolphus think of her now that she is also part of him, she could see the sad look in his eyes when the truth about her being a witch was revealed, the pain his mother cau
Lilia walked out of the bathroom, she smelled nice and her washed hair was packed at the back with a rubber. She wore the simple and worn out gown Natacha gave her and honestly, she felt comfortable in it.She found Natacha waiting patiently for her, she sat on a sofa with a book in her hand. "You can leave now, once it is sunset, go into the woods and I shall meet you there, I know that you have burning questions that your heart needs to clear off" Natacha said in a stiff tone, her gaze fixed on the book she was reading. "Thank you" Lilia muttered and walked out the door. At the sound of the closed door, Natacha looked up and closed the book in her hand. Her brunette roommate, Genevieve with a pointed nose and black eyes, walked into the hut minutes later, "What was she doing in our home?" She inquired at Natacha who gave her a reluctant look."The queen requested that I have her washed and dressed" She briefly answered, got up and walked towards the bed leaving Genevieve looking a
