A loud cry of horses rode deep into the woods, the sun was setting but the soldiers rode further, none of them dared to go back to the palace without the prince even if it meant for them to stay in the woods for days. The rusting of dry leaves echoed as the horses trampled on them violently, the soldier's eyes lurking around the dark woods that were covered in trees and dry leaves. "We must get to the prince as soon as we can, do not leave any stone unturned" one hefty soldier roared at the men who ran behind him. They all had swords in their hands just in case they come across any wild animals or the wolf that took the prince captive. Soon, the sun set and the woods became dark and quiet, quickly, the soldiers lit up their fire sticks which gave them way through the dark path of the woods. An owl flew past them, his howl alerted them as they fixed their gaze on the departing bird. There was no sign of the moon or stars and a black cloud covered the sky. One of the soldiers moved a
King Arthur glanced at his reflection, his eyes fixed on his body that was fully ready to take back the kingdom from the hands of king Fabian. Today is the day justice will be served and the kingdom of Anedo can return back to the way it once was, not just with a king and a witch wife, but a king with the woman of his life, the one he will forever live till death overshadows him. King Arthur stared at himself longstop,his glare became hard and brutal and anger flushed through him. His judgment on all who betrayed him and harmed his daughter will be difficult for any human to pass through. He won't let his family be taken away from him anymore and the realization of him becoming a grandfather brought hope to his shattered heart. King Arthur heard footsteps behind him, he turned back and saw Mena approaching him with a worried look on her face at once, his heart skipped a bit and he wondered what news she had but with the look on her face, he knew that they were not going to be pleasa
Lilia stared at the figure before her, she blinked her eyes severally to be sure that she wasn't dreaming this time but each time she opened her eyes, she stood before her, with pain in her eyes. Adolphus stared at Lilia, pain filled his heart at just the look of her, she looked starved, beaten and maltreated and just her condition added more anger running blood and all he just wanted was to kill those who caused her so much pain. He stared at her non-stop, his heart raced faster and all he wanted right now is to hold her close and miss those lips of her. "Lilia" he muttered again and ran towards her, his hands all over her in a warm embrace. Regardless of her look, Lilia still had the wonderful scent in her. He closed his eyes firmly, pain, happiness and agony filled his heart. "Lilia" he whispered softly, his hand stroked her hair lovingly and he placed kisses on it, a tear slowly rolled down his eyes. At first, Lilia stood still under his embrace, his scent filled her nose and w
Lilia sat still with trembling eyes, it had been an hour since Adolphus was taken away by the queen and her soldiers. Her heart beat faster than ever as she wondered what would have happened to Adolphus, the thought of losing him broke her heart and she couldn't stop crying uncontrollably. Suddenly, She heard the clicking sound of the dungeon gate, Lilia turned and saw a tall figure approaching her in the dark. She narrowed her eyes and stared with sharp eyes, her heart wondering who this stranger was. Soon, the face of the figure became clearer, a few feet away from her was her mother Mena stared at her daughter with pitiful eyes. Lilia stood up and glared with fixed eyeballs,"Mother" she muttered and watched her walk closer to her. Lilia stood looking confused, her mother did appear to her a while ago before she stopped but her entrance today was strange to her. Her mother teleported just like most ghosts do but this time, she came through the dungeon gate with eyes filled with so
Adolphus' eyes flung open as his mouth let out a loud gasp. His eyes flickered around the darkness that was around him. He felt his body locked up in something and he couldn't move his body. An offensive odor clung into his nose, Adolphus turned to his side and saw a dead corpse next to him, the decayed flesh stuck to his nose. Disgusted, he realized that he was inside a coffin and he wondered how he got in there. With all his strength, he pushed the lid of the coffin which opened at once and fresh air flowed into it and clung firmly to his nose. At once, Adolphus got out of the coffin and stared around, the cave he was put in was dark but at the entrance, he saw six soldiers running towards him with sharp swords in their hands. A tremendous anger flushed through Adolphus, he roared at them mighty and at once his body transformed into that of a wolf. With fear in their eyes, the soldiers dropped their swords, one fell to the floor and passed out at one. The rest ran away but were
The atmosphere was cold and silent as only the sound of ruffling leaves could be heard accompanied by a loud cry of a powerful werewolf, the night dark and far from safety.An awful smell polluted the air as birds of the night cried out for safety. Through the thick darkness, a young man was seen running fiercely through the deep woods, his hair dark as coal as it rested firmly on his shoulder. His lips were red as blood and his green eyes sparkled through the night in great fear. The heavy sound of his panting echoed through the woods which were fully guarded by tall trees as its leaves swung to the touch of the night breeze.Adolphus turned back with great panic in his eyes as beads of sweat formed on his forehead. His skin was as white as snow and his uncovered chest was filled with full hairs. He panted loudly as he ran faster than any werewolf that has ever lived but the more he ran, the more his strength faded.Adolphus glanced at his fingers which sprint out in the long and poi
"This is the myth of the legendary werewolf of mankind, evil and fierce and he kills without mercy, so brutal and relentless" The voice of Mama Gunad, the oldest woman in the village echoed in her small abode surrounded with candles and little children who sat in her most, their eyes wide open in fear and curiosity."Is he alive, mother?" a young child among the children asked with little eyes that were covered with fear.Mama Gunad's expression was suppressed as she looked at the child with a scary face, "Yes!" She roared, her eyes scanning the little children before her, "He lives far away from the reach of humans, bound with a curse that can never let him out, he…" A soft chuckle cut her through as a figure walked into her hut, her long black hair flowed gently behind her back, "Oh mother, when will you ever stop telling such tales about a legendary werewolf, we all know that he doesn't exist" Princess Lilia said on sarcasm as she stood beside the children who stared at her with a
Lilia strolled through the hallway and headed towards the throne room. She glanced down at the pink gown she decided to wear. It stood elegantly on her body but not regarding its beauty, Lilia felt very uncomfortable in it. She glanced at her hands that were covered in white long gloves, her hair was nicely packed by her maids with hairpins that added more radiating beauty to it. As she sauntered further, her blue eyes twinkled as unspoken words filled her mind. She wondered which kingdom this suitor comes from and his looks but one thing is certain that no man can ever win her heart. She got to the door of the throne room, from where she stood, she heard her father's voice along with an unfamiliar voice. The soldier at the door opened it widely for her as she stepped in, her eyes fixed on the young man next to her father.King Arthur looked up at the sight of Lilia, he smiled proudly at her look and was sure that her suitor would be thrilled by her captivating beauty.
