Bending to the Lycan's Warth 21
Edwina I didn’t want attention, but Rebeca! She knows exactly what to do to embarrass me. I don’t know if it makes her feel good about herself, but it is a foolish way to live. I haven’t witnessed a greater embarrassment, yet this tops it all. Serving the people, I used to dine with. If I didn’t have a big responsibility hanging over me, I would have taken the easy way out of my problems. I will kill myself and then all this misery will end once and for all, but I can’t do that now. I must stay alive for my mother. I went back into the kitchen with tears lined up at the corner of my eyes waiting to pour out, but tried my best to hold them in because if they did, I'd break down and I couldn't let that happen, not in front of my enemies! I picked myself up and found my way back to the kitchen. I didn’t bother to stay a minute when I got to the kitchen, I just carried the stuff I was serving along with me to a storeroom and locked myself in. There I cried out the tears I h

Edwina I tried to be as careful as possible to avoid all the dangerous routes, but I couldn't be careful enough. I was close to Sandcastle when I heard someone call behind me. It was a guard. I don't know who it was, but I knew that he meant no good. "Hey! Turn around!" he yelled. I acted like he wasn't talking to me, and I continued walking as fast as I could because I knew that I was close to my destination. “Hey! Didn't you hear me? I said stop right there! you in rags!" I didn’t want him to call too much attention to me but in my mind, I was thinking of the best way to get him off me…. I slowly turned and then the idea came to my head, and I tripped and fell. I picked up as much sand as I could with my palm and the guard ran in front of me, I slowly raised my head to look at him and threw the sand I had picked directly into his eyes. He screamed in pain, and I used this opportunity to get up and start running as fast as I could. His screams attracted a lot

EdwinaAfter the maids were done taking my bath, they applied some essential lotions on me and then massaged my sore body.I miss this life I had always had and I didn’t even know what I had then but now that I have seen the other side of life. I cherish what I had and I wish I could get it all back.While they were massaging me, some other maids came into the room with food. I could already smell it from miles away and my tummy rumbled at the aroma. They opened it and placed it on the table in my room. It had so much in it, different sorts of delicious meat and fish, seasoned to perfection... It had mashed potatoes garnished with cheese and fried with bread crumbs, all sorts of veggies, and freshly squeezed juices.I dived into the food with my hands and ate like I wasn't even a princess. When I was done, I slept on the cozy warm bed! Damn, it has been a while since I slept for so long but I did. For once, I forgot about my worries for that period and I slept till I heard a word on

EDWINA“Is that all you can do?” Marquis tried to provoke him.“For your information, I am the Sandman, I am the protector of every sand. I have lived here for thousands of years without interruption. I know you have heard about the Sand Land. You must have heard the rumors of my land and its terrible wonders. Soon, you will experience it..” he said.“Well I don't believe this, I don't think you all that just because you performed a little magic. Anyone could claim to be a powerful spirit. The wind might have stopped because it wanted to and not because you asked it to.” Marquis provoked.Marquis didn't understand the game he was playing but he didn't care because he was already dying and he had nothing else to lose.“What do you mean?” you just said we stopped a tornado and you still doubt? You're a lowly human!” he got angered again and made the tornado arise stronger this time.Just like before, Marquis didn't fight with it, he just laid in the middle of it, waiting for the tornado

Edward.After Edwina was embarrassed at the party, I knew that she would feel devastated and she wouldn't want to come out again.I looked around to see if she would show up any time soon but she didn't.I can imagine her embarrassment I can also say that she deserves it for being a betrayal.To be honest, I didn't look forward to much at the ceremony when Edwina stopped showing up.The ceremony even became more boring for me and I got really tired.I wanted to go and check up on Edwina but I didn't want her to feel like I had diverted from my mission….I still plan to make her suffer and I intend to keep it that way.All that was left at the party were noises that I suddenly detest.I formally loved the sound of parties and ceremonies. The beautiful colors of different people from different kingdoms, gathered together in different beautiful attires just to celebrate together. The music and the merriment.Now it's just noise! I hate it all and I need to quiet….When I couldn't take it an

Edwina“Look, I know that the both of you are enemies now but it doesn't matter to me. All that matters to me is if the Princess is willing to stay or go…”I hated the choices that I was left with because none of them was of any good to me… I need d to help my mother and I can't stay here nor can I leave with EdwardMy heart was beating as I looked into Edward’s cold eyes. I cannot continue to be a servant to his foolish fiancee“The Princess is safe within these walls but once she gets out, her enemies will pound on her like a hungry lion. I can only guarantee Princess Edwina’s safety within these walls..” Marquis kept repeating this statement and it got annoying at some point, like okay I get you! I am toast if I don’t accept your marriage proposal. Damn!“It is your choice, Princess Edwina, now you have to choose. Would you like to go with your former betrothed or would you like to sit here in the safety of my net?” Marquis askedI was quiet for a long time, thinking about what to d

EdwinaI tried to catch a quick sleep with the sole called King of Galentia in front of my face. I had a lot on my mind, but I didn’t want to think too much about it.I was far gone in sleep when I heard a little noise. I didn’t pay attention to it, but the noise became more disturbing, so I opened my eyes to see what it was.I found Edward wasn’t in front of me anymore and some of the guards were gone, while a few others were asleep, or so I thought.I got up and looked around me, Edward was nowhere to be found, this was an opportunity to escape this dump!I didn’t think twice about it, I got up and started to run as fast as my legs could carry me, and without looking back, I kept running until I foolishly stumbled on a large log of wood and fell to my face. I didn’t mind a little strained foot, I tried to get up and by the time I did, someone was standing in front of me. A rouge wolf. I could just see from the way he looked that he was one of Damien’s men.F*ck! I knew I would come
