Fairy goddess looked at Bella, who is looking all around the cave with curiosity and confusion.
"This is my home" the fairy goddess replied to her earlier question.
Bella turned towards the woman with a frown.
"Home? No offense, but why are you living in a cave? You look beautiful and healthy. Why live here out of all the places? Don't you get bored?" Bella asked curiously.
The fairy goddess chuckled at Bella's question.
"No my child, I will never get bored. All my children will keep me entertained" she replied with a smile.
Bella is even more confused.
"Your children? Where are they? You are the only one I can see here" She asked curiously. But then a thought came into Bella's mind.
"Oh, silly me. They must have gone out with their father right?" Bella asked.
The fairy goddess laughed at Bella's statement.
"No my child, I am not married yet" the fairy Goddess replied with an amused smile.
Bella frowned a l
Bella woke up gasping for breath, alerting Blaze. Her breathing is ragged and she is sweating. She looked around the room and sighed with relief. She is not scared, but she is confused. Everything felt so real and she could still feel the cold air from inside the cave touching her skin. Blaze looked at her with concern. "Bella? Are you alright? What happened?" he asked worriedly. Bella looked at him with a confused expression. "I... I had a dream" she confessed softly. Blaze sighed with relief when he heard her words. He turned towards the side table and fetched some water for her. "Here, drink some water" he placed the water glass near her lips and she sipped some water. He replaced the glass and turned to face her. "Was it a nightmare?" he asked softly, pushing her hair away from her face. "No, it was not a nightmare. But the dream was rather strange and I felt like I was really there. In that cold cave" she w
Blaze and Bella showered together and dressed to go to the Hamilton group. They had a quick breakfast and Blaze shifted them into his office."Today I need to go to the dark realm. We found a lead on the culprit. We need to catch the lead first" he told Bella.Bella is slightly disappointed that he will not be here in the office with her. But she knows that he needs to go and solve the issues there, it's important. Her mind is still buzzing with everything that he shared this morning. She now has a picture of what happened in the past few months and how she ended up with Cameron."Ok," Bella mumbled, disappointment clear on her face.Blaze chuckled looking at the expression on her face."Don't be like that. I will come back as soon as I am done" he promised.Bella nodded reluctantly.Blaze sighed and pulled her into a hug. He kissed the crown of her head with love."You take care," he said."Ok" she replied quietly
In the human world, Bella's parents came back to the city, and they rented their old house which they sold before leaving the city. They were unpacking the boxes when Bella came running inside the house to visit her parents.She was so excited to meet her parents after so long, she is practically bouncing on her toes since the moment they called her that morning."Mom" she called her when she heard a rustling sound coming from the kitchen.Grace stilled when she heard her daughter's voice. She rushed out of the kitchen to see if she really heard Bella calling her or it's just her imagination like always. Her eyes welled with tears when she saw her daughter standing in the middle of their house, looking around.It's been so long since Grace saw Bella in her childhood home. Cameron tormented their family beyond repair and she never thought Bella would be standing in front of her like this.Bella's eyes fell on her mother, who is standing just outside
In the dark realm, Blaze held meeting all throughout the day with his advisors, elite guards and a few royals in the palace. Everyone wanted to know how Mois died. Blaze explained to them what he saw and he even encouraged them to inspect the body if they can. That way, he doesn't have to explain to each and every person what happened to Mois.Like always, in every meeting, either his advisors or some royals raised some questions which he was annoyed to explain again and again."It might be suicide. How can you tell so surely that he was killed? You young people these days look at everything with suspicion" one of the advisors, Lord Angelo made fun of Blaze. He is always against Blaze being a king and he never leave any opportunity to show Blaze down.Lord Bowman snickered at Lord Angelos words.Blaze's eyes flared with anger.He banged the oak wodden table around which they were seated around with force. The table gave away and cracked i
It's been more than 10 hours since Mois was dead, so his body is emitting a pungent odor, which is unbearable. The advisors couldn't stand to be close to the body for more than a few minutes. But they are scared out of their mind not to inspect the body closely either. Because otherwise, Blaze will ask them what they found out, and without proper inspection, they will be tongue-tied in front of him.They need to look closely to see if what their king claimed about his death is true or false. He said it's a murder, so they inspected the body to see if it's true or false. Like always, Blaze is correct this time as well. It indeed looks like a murder and not suicide like Lord Angelo claimed it to be.Almost all the advisors puked their guts out after they investigated the body, as they couldn't stand the pungent smell. They all glared at Lord Angelo."Why can't you keep your mouth shut? We have been seeing his highness for the past ten years. He never said a
"Explain," Blaze asked Lord Alesso to explain why he feels like it's a murder and not a suicide. He is done spoon-feeding them everything and it's time they act as his advisors. For a change, they should be the ones who are giving him the intel and not the other way around.Alesso cleared his throat and began to give everyone the details of what he actually noticed there."In this, I agree with his highness. I noticed that the victim is stabbed with a pin on the left side of his neck. If it's a suicide, then he should be stabbing himself on the right, as his right hand is his dominant hand, he would have stabbed himself on the right and not left. Moreover, I didn't find any traces of the needle or the poison anywhere near him or around him. The dragon poison is so very potent that he must have died within seconds. So he can clear the poison or the needle. So someone else was there and he is the one who killed Mois" Lord Alesso shared his views with everyone.
One by one, all the advisors left the King's office taking their leave. Only Lord Michael, Brandon, and Blaze were left behind. The room in silent, except for the ticking of the grandfather clock hanging by the wall."How is it possible? We know it's one of the advisors. I thought we could catch the culprit today. But everyone came out clean. We found nothing on them in person or any of their chambers. They couldn't possibly guess that they would be searched today. I am surprised myself. But still, how did he manage to escape?" Brandon broke the silence, his face and voice indicating that he is frustrated.Both Blaze and Lord Michael are thinking the same."Hmm, he seems to be more cunning than we thought he is. Either he used someone else to kill Mois, or we are missing something here" Lord Michael shared his view.Blaze remained silent. There is a frown etched in between his eyebrows, indicating he is thinking something. When Blaze didn't respond, both
Blaze returned to the human world and found that Bella is not there in their room. He walked downstairs looking for her. It's already 11 pm and he expected that she would be sleeping in their bed by now. But to his surprise, she is not.He searched for her and found her sitting in the backyard, looking at the wilderness at a distance. There is a small frown marring her forehead."What are thinking so hard about?" he asked. He made his way towards her and sat on the muddy ground.Bella looked at him with a small smile. She is not surprised. She was expecting him."Hey" she greeted him softly.Blaze grinned at her and looked in the direction where she was looking at when he came here."What happened? Is the lead you were talking about really dead?" Bella asked worriedly.Blaze nodded his head in affirmative action.Bella gasped."What are going to do now?" she asked with a frown."I don't know. I am sure one of my a
