A ray of light pierced through her skin, her body burned up in enormous pain. Slowly, Lilia opened her eyes to find a pair of eyes staring at her. She narrowed her eyes at the image before her as it became clear, the eyes that stared at her were not the green eyes she was expecting to see but her mum's blue eyes that shone in worry."My Child" Queen Mena muttered with a happy smile as she quickly cupped Lilia's hand in hers, her face beaming with joy.Lilia blinked with a confused look, she scanned around and was surprised to find herself back in her bedroom, her mum seated next to her with a relieved face. She squeezed her forehead puzzled as she wondered how she got here, "Mother" she whispered as the pain in her mouth prevented her from speaking. She winced in pain, her eyes shut together as her back ached badly."Stay calm child, don't stress yourself, you are still healing" Queen Mena caress her hand slowly, her eyes welled up with tears, "I thought I have lost you forever" she s
The sound of the galloping horses was heard as they left the palace and headed to the village. Lilia glanced out at the open window of the carriage as she gazed at people who stopped as soon as they saw the royal carriage approaching. Finally, she could get answers concerning the necklace that was given to her by Mama Gunad, she needs to know its origin and maybe get answers of the beast in the cave. The carriage rode gently, the pain in her body made it difficult for her to stay put but she insisted that she would, no matter how hard it would take.Soon, they got closer to Mama Gunad's house, the people around stared at Queen Mena in glittering eyes as they admired her beauty and royal clothings. They were used to seeing the princess but the presence of the Queen gave them goosebumps as their heart raced with awe. Lilia got out of the carriage, she didn't care about her twisted ankle or the villagers watching. With pains, she limps towards the door of the hut, her heart filled wit
Two maids rushed into the room as they heard Lilian loud gasp. They stared at her with scared eyes as they wondered what happened.Lilian panted heavily as she stared at her body, she still had bruises on her skin but she felt no pain in her legs, hands or body!.Shocked, she quickly got out of her bed, walked towards the door and back to her bed without limping or any feeling of pain. The maids stared at her in confusion but none of them dared to say a word but watched her with longing eyes. Lilia walked towards a mirror nearby, glared at her reflection and to add more to her surprise, her red puffy eyes were all gone as they were replaced with her normal eyeballs. Even the cut by the side of her mouth healed, not a scratch could be seen but the wounds on her hands and leg were still present. Quickly she turned to the maids with a smile on her face which quickly faded as she walked to her bed, sat on it and the weird dream she just had crawled slowly into her mind. She turned to th
"I am Adolphus, son of the leader of the Alpha pack of werewolves and I need no one to question my identity!" He roared in deep rage, his teeth elongated and became pointy and so terrifying to gaze at. His ears become longer as his appearance turned into a wolf, His eyes facing Lilia's terror eyes as she shivered in fear. Lilia's eyes widened In shock at his revelation. She stared at the beast before her whose face was immediately covered in hair, long fur that became pointy. She gazed in great shock as he transformed into a wolf with four legs but his eyes were as green as ever,harsh and filled with death.Lilia screamed in fright, her legs wobbled and her mouth dried up at once. Not able to stand the sight, Lilian took to her heels and ran away quickly as she could, her eyes searching the hole she created on the wall. Adolphus, who became a fierce wolf, ran ragingly towards her as his teeth were ready to tear her into several pieces. Filled with fear, she ran more, her heart beatin
The palace was filled with merry music as maids could be seen around the palace carrying a tray of foods, fruits and flowers.Lilia stared out of her room window as she gazed at the royal carriage of King Fabian, prince philip's father as they visited with the engagement preparation.Lilia sighed in an unhappy tone, she walked towards her bed, her hand folded as she sat on her bed with a bordered heart. It's been a week since her encounter at the cave but still she kept seeing his face in her dreams and everytime she closed her eyes. Never did she think that she would be drawn to him even after he almost killed her if she wasn't fast enough to escape death.Lilia inhaled deeply, she stood up with tensed stares, her mind far away from reality as her mind didn't go well with her engagement plans with prince Phlip, just his face alone gave her a feeling of disgust and she couldn't imagine living with someone sue didn't love for the rest of her life. His attitude, fake smiles and silly ex
Lilia laid still on her bed as the incident that unfolded between her and the caveman filled her mind. With her restless eyes, her mind went back to the night he transformed into a wolf, a night that she wants to forget so badly."Adolphus' ' she whispered to herself, his name crawling into her like a poisonous snake, an addictive music that cannot be turned off."Adolphus" she mumbled again, the name sounds familiar and she was sure that she had heard the name somewhere.Confused, she got out of her bed, opened a little bookshelf by the side of the mirror in her vast bedroom. Most women in the kingdom didn't know how to read or write but she was taught how to by the royal professor as it is mandatory for a princess to be able to be educated formally in every aspect.With her eyes fixed on the books in front of her, she ransacked through the bookshelf, glancing at one book after another. Suddenly, her eyes rested on a book with a brown cover standing untouched at the top shelf. Carefu
The palace was silent as the sound of approaching feet could be heard. The kingdom of Sunan was known for its lousy nature and partying spirit but today was different as the maids went about their duties calmly and quietly.Prince Philip walked towards the throne room, his eyes twinkled in pride, his lips stretched in a smirk. He scanned the large hallway as he walked, his gladdened heart rose with joy. He knew that his father would be in his throne room with the advisor of the kingdom as they always have a meeting every Tuesday. But he didn't care, when he wanted to see his father, no one could interrupt him.Prince Philip walked into the throne room, seated on the throne was his father King Fabian and the kingdom adviser Donald Simon. Filled with elegance, Philip bowed in respect , his gaze fixed on his father, "Father" he called out, "I need to talk to you" he turned to his advisor, "In secret" he announced as he glared back at his father.The fat king turned to his royal advisor,
"My king" Prince Philip acknowledged with a bow as he stood in front of king Arthur who glared at him with reassured eyes."How is your father, my very good friend doing?" King Arthur inquired.Philip stood firmly, he had a blue jacket with a black pants , his face filled with pleasant smiles. "He sends his regard to your great regim" Philip replied as his smile vanished accompanied with a look of worry.King Arthur noticed his changed expression, his eyes narrowed in confusion, "Is there anything wrong with your father?" He asked with concern.Philip looked down, "No my king, my father is fine but something else troubles me" he looked up with sad eyes."Talk to me, you are now like a son to me so be free and tell me what borders you?" King Arthur persuaded him with sincere eyes.Prince Philip nodded, "It is about your daughter, King Arthur" he revealed calmly.King Arthur sat well with full attention, his eyes fixed on the young prince before him, "What about her? Is there any probl
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
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
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
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
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
Four soldiers ran breathlessly into the palace, they had sweats trickling down their face and their eyes embowed in fright. The bright sun shone violently down on earth and the smell of red wine filled the air The maids around the palace courtyard stared at them with confused gaze as they wondered why the men looked dirty and came running like they were being pursued by someone. The door of the throne room opened widely and all soldiers burst into the vast room, their eyes fixed on King Fabian who turned to them in surprise. At once, the soldiers got to their knees with their heads bowed down in respect."My King" one of the men said in between breaths, his hand on his chest as his eyes wailed in fear. King Fabian studied their faces, the look on their faces were very alarming and at once, he knew that something dangerous must have happened. With his sight on them, King Fabian quickly recognized them as the soldiers who accompanied his son, Philip, to the 6th kingdom. He glanced a
The moon shone brightly in the sky, wood insects chirped nonstop and the howling sound of a nearby owl added a more tense sensation to the woods. Philip tossed to get comfortable on the ground, his head placed on the tree, as he tossed, a mosquito flew past his ear, irritated, he shoved it away, his eyes still closed in the most uncomfortable sleep he has ever had. His soldiers slept soundly, they were all tired and exhausted. None of them was as uncomfortable as the priest, they are used to sleeping in such places like this and their body is used to it. The full moon shone so brightly on them. Suddenly, Philip heard a sound emitting from behind the tree he rested upon. Scared, he opened his eyes and quickly stood up, the moon provided him with light which made him able to see through. With a beating heart, Philip scanned around the vast area, he saw nothing but bushes and leaves. A loud bird cried over him, Phlip looked up and saw a bird nest, the bird stood on a tree, his eyes fi
Queen Suna was overwhelmed with terror. She at once knew what Natacha wanted to do. No! She won't let it happen, she wants Lilia dead by all means and she only watches and allows this Natacha girl to take the blame."Liar!" Queen Suna roared, "She is a liar, she wants the witch to leave, we won't allow that! This girl isn't a witch! No one should listen to her but get the princess on the stake burned at once" she ordered in outrage. Natacha smiled with pain in her heart, she can allow Lilia to die, she has to die instead because she knows who Lila truly is, her identities as a witch and a werewolf, she won't let such a legendary born die of a sin she didn't commit. "You don't believe that I killed your worthless daughters" she yelled to the crowd, her motive to make them angry at her, "It was so much fun watching them die" she laughed wickedly, "The tears in their eyes as they choke to death, the look was so satisfying to glare at" she roared. The crowd was becoming tense and filled
The loud crowd roared violently, they eyes fixed on Lilia who was bounded by chains and laid on a stake. Her mouth was covered with a hard tape to prevent her from talking but her swollen eyes trembled in fear as she watched the soldiers surround the stake she was placed on with dry hay. More tears rolled down Lilia's eyes, she can't die this way, she just can't! Her plans, her words and her unborn child will be burnt along with her. She looked at the people's angry eyes, their eyes were stiff and filled with vengeance, they were ready to get her burned as soon as possible but all Lilia could do was lay on the stake with her eyes closed, her heart beating faster than ever. "Kingdom of Anedo!" King Fabian's loud voice echoed through the walls of the palace. At once, the crowd became silent and stared at the king who looked pleased that he was able to find the culprit as fast as he did. "It is a pity and a sad one that the princess of this kingdom isn't just a murderer but a witch" h
