“In our bed Seraphina! Someone thought they could take your life whilst you slept! They didn’t even want to give you the chance to defend yourself, cowards! They are cowards!” Achilles pulled on his hair in frustration. 

“Achilles, calm down my love. We weren’t there, it’s a good thing Aurelia had the foresight to move into our quarters at the pala

She’s completely catatonic, the only time she moves out of bed is to feed Leo and then its just back to staring at the walls.” Achilles ran a frustrated hand through his hair as tears pooled in his eyes.His clothes were dishevelled, he had started to grow a scraggly beard and dark circles sat under his eyes.Isobella sighed as she extended her hand to give Achilles’ a gentle, reassuring squeeze.“Your highness, she is grieving.

She clawed at her naked skin and screamed into the night. Her screeches loud enough to disturb the heavens. Raging fires encircled her like a protective wall.She wrapped her arms around her stomach, feeling empty, hollow, lost. She could hear the sound of laughter, a cruel, demented laugh. Turning her head towards the sound, her eyes reflecting the flames dancing as they were slick with tears. Stepping through the flames, she stalked towards the person laughing at her, her hands partially shifted into the claws of her dragon. Ready to tear out the throats of whoever had dared to mock her.

Whispering words in the air, a small handmade doll appeared in her hand as she

Isobella opened her arms out to embrace Seraphina, as they parted she paused momentarily and cast her eyes over Seraphina’s body. An unsettling look came across her face before she shook it away and gave a solemn smile.“Are you sure it is wi

The mages along with Princess Seraphina will be entrusted with bringing the children back to the manor.

She had never felt connected to her parents, having no memories of them whatsoever. Moving to the DeBeaux Angelo manor, she thought she would’ve felt a connection, a spark, something but, she didn’t. It just felt like a house.Now, for the first time, she felt connected, she felt the love her father had for h
