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
CHAPTER 63ETHAN'S POV"How would you like to cut your locks and trim these beards to a minimum, so we can have a good time deceiving your people" I was surprised when Irene said these words, staring at my locks I couldn't even dream of cutting them, I promised myself that I wouldn't cut my hair until my death."I can't that would make me a bit unrelated, I love my locks so much you know how much I treat them" I uttered, wondering if there was another way to go around this."This is the only way we can save your brother from his death... You have to think about it, your choice, your locks or your brother's life" At this point I knew that she meant her words and that was the only way that I wouldn't be recognized."Then you'll have to cut it yourself cause I can't bring myself to pull it off" I groaned, "Ok fine, I'll get a scissor, and some oil" she conceded as she walked downstairs to get the items she mentioned."I'm back" she chuckled as she placed the items on the table in front
CHAPTER 64IRENE'S POVHappy over the fact that the people were all happy to see me standing, not being waved off by the death of mother, truth be told I'm so saddened by mother's death but I would not sob forever, I've got a position to occupy and lead.Standing in front of the crowd, the hall was filled with Witches from different covens, I was happy that we had enough resources to take care of everyone, knowing that if they head back to their lands they would be vulnerable to attacks, as the saying goes 'United we stand divided we fall'.We have to stay united until the war is over and all our enemies are buried six feet deep into the ground"First off I want to say I didn't expect the god of demons to take my mother as a sacrifice, she's gone and she would be missed by all. I'm just happy that I've proved to everyone that I'm capable of ruling this kingdom, I'm young and I know that and you all should not blame me, The gods chose me and my acceptance made me realize the need to he
