CHAPTER 55ETHAN'S POVI walked to the truck, wondering what was going on, listening to Irene's sobbing voice I knew something was wrong and it had to do with her mother. She walked out wearing a sad look on her face as she opened the truck pressing the button."What was the fuss all about?" I asked, "I'll let you know on the way" She uttered as she got into the car, she cared less about the witches standing behind the truck she drove out of the village like she was being pursued, this scared me a little."What went wrong at your house?... If you don't want to say anything, don't force yourself it's fine..." I stuttered, staring at Irene, she was silently sobbing and she couldn't hold her tears anymore. "Did your mother annoy you again?""She talked about my father's place like it's trash to her but that's exactly where her life was built and that where her life met happiness" Irene sobbed as she took a U turn. She wasn't even caring about the traffic."Mothers tend to be like that
CHAPTER 56IRENE'S POVI was pissed over the fact that I abused Ethan's mother because of my mother's words. I couldn't even get myself to think straight, I'm so happy and thrilled that Ethan took that all away with his words and his concern.Sometimes I feel like I don't deserve his love, but it's there and he makes me feel more like a queen which I've grown to become.We got to the cabin missing my old black book that was like a fortune teller to me, this book tells me what's about to happen and how to avert it, one of the blessings that my father gave to me.I was surprised when I opened the pages of the book, it was blank. At the final two pages, I saw two birds on a tree filled with other birds below it, there were different.."Do you know what this means?" I inquired, wondering why it was showing two ugly kinds with their kinds separated from each other. "These are two kingdoms brought together, by love... This is definitely me and you" Ethan giggled, I had a weird feeling abou
CHAPTER 57Ethan's POVI guess Irene didn't even realize how long that she was asleep for, she was so engrossed in her sleep that she didn't realize that it was almost time for her big occasion."We have ten minutes before the ceremony" I repeated my words as she looked over the clock, I guess she was as shocked as I was, I smacked my lips staring at Irene because she was scared over the fact that we were not prepared, no clothing, she didn't even prepare her speech for the kingdom."Well if it's about the dresses you're worried about, I have that sorted out cause I met this in the wardrobe stacked behind where your father packed his books I guess that it was meant for us" I divulge, knowing that I had solutions to the dressing problems and that was because I came across it when I was arranging the books."This is really weird but I guess it'll fit me as well as you so we'll make do of what we have, I'll go freshen up, please meet me downstair when you're ready," She stutters as she r
IRENE'S POV"We have ten minutes before the ceremony" I was shocked at this words, wondering for how long I've been asleep and I didn't even feel weak, cause normally sleeping for so long makes me dizzy."Well if it's about the dresses you're worried about, I have that sorted out cause I met this in the wardrobe stacked behind where your father packed his books I guess that it was meant for us" I cared less about the dress, glad that he took care of that aspect, I was more focused on what I would say to a thousand people out there today, this is so heartbreaking if I would step out and make a fool of myself."This is really weird but I guess it'll fit me as well as you so we'll make do of what we have, I'll go freshen up, please meet me downstair when you're ready," I uttered, knowing that we also had other things to sort out before heading out, "We have a closet at the basement so it's easy for me to get dressed so I'm the one supposed to say those words, so please meet me downstair
,Chapter 59Ethan's POVI couldn't believe that Irene was about to battle on the day that she was supposed t be coronated, it seemed like a plot, "Since you pulled out the challenge, I get to decide the surroundings" Irene utters as she was battling with her emotions, it felt like she was listening to the voice of an unknown person."The Queen's afraid of battling me out here so the sun and the moon can bare witness to your failure and incapabilities" Everyone laughed at the words of this witch, her words got Irene pissed to the point where she wore smiles on her face, whenever Irene smile when she's angry, she already knows how to stop whoever got her pissed."It's tradition and we have to respect it" Irene chortled in a mild tone, "Hmm I guess tradition can save you from my ideas of killing you but it can't save you from my wrath" She was really boasting off her powers, wondering why she was challenging Irene."Let the best witch survive" Irene utters as she walks back to where I
CHAPTER 60IRENE'S POVThe fight was so hard to depict, evading all the spells from Isis, I wondered why she wanted to fight me. I knew she was paid to go this, sabotage the coronation with a battle challenge.I couldn't evade this spell, because I felt a dark part of me rising through my veins."I wouldn't miss this for anything" listening to the voice of Clifford, I knew he was the one that paid Isis to fight me after he had brainwashed her with lies and gave her the powers she used to defeat all her opponents."This is your end, Queen mother" Isis stuttered as she made her dark spell, knowing that it was a round chain of attack the only way to avert it is to strike an arrow through the circle."This is for disrespecting me" I growled, watching her groan in pains, feeling the adverse effects of my spell.Isis walked out of the circle made on the rock, signifying that I was the one that won the first round."Do not let your guard down, your enemies are counting on your failure" A voi
CHAPTER 61ETHAN'S POVI was pissed that Clifford used Irene's mother as the sacrifice to the demon god, well this wasn't what we planned."My brother's life is in danger, we have to save him from Arianna and her father's plot" I uttered as we got into the cabin, I was very pissed at the fact that she was mute all through the drive, I guess she was angry over the fact that her mother's body was burnt to ashes and thrown into the river as tradition demands."Less you forget my mother just died, I'm not in the moody for any journey since you know everything about it you could go there as well" she retorted as she tore her dress into two halves, feeling too weak so use the zipper."What does that mean?" I was confused over her words, wondering why she was making this so hard, she was the one that foretold my brother's death."It means that I have a whole lot of things to do and saving your brother Paul isn't one of them" she stuttered as she laid on the bed naked, it felt like she was ch
CHAPTER 62IRENE'S POVHaving these thoughts about my mother's corpse burning in flames, remembering how her ashes were thrown into the river, I was silent all through the drive.I knew Ethan wasn't happy about my mood, I was happy that I won the fight but the words of Clifford got stuck in my mind."An orphan Queen" Losing my father was something I was trying to recover from and now my mother, I'm all alone in this world, Ethan could reject me at anytime, this is my fear and I can't face it, knowing that I won't survive from a heartbreak.We walked into the cabin, I knew Ethan had words to say but I was wondering what exactly he wanted to say to me precisely, I was pissed I just hoped that his words wouldn't instigate more anger inside my head."My brother's life is in danger, we have to save him from Arianna and her father's plot" he uttered in a mild tone."Less you forget my mother just died, I'm not in the moody for any journey since you know everything about it you could go the
