“I wonder if Damien would have any ghost stories to tell once he gets back,” I joked.“I wonder if Damien would be alive by the time you get there to release him.”With those words my smile faded very instantaneously. Death? There was nothing but bones in the donjon. Absolutely nothing but bones. “What do you mean?”“Stories,” quipped Aariv.“Be serious, Aariv!” I commanded. “If Damien dies before his trial I might as well kill myself in guilt.”“That then would be a bloody pleasure to me. So if Damien’s death is the key to your death, I wish he dies in prison,” Aariv joked with a smile but I could not find anything amusing about the situation.“Explain it to me,” I requested.Aariv looked into my eyes for a while. Perceiving my sudden desperation and interest in his stories, he begun to talk. “There are stories of a woman in there who persuades prisoners to end their suffering.”“How?”“With the very bones of her body.”I swallowed greatly. Thinking of what I had done. Perhaps I had
“I am afraid that bit of information you would have to find out by yourself.” Aariv begun to take his leave.“What? Why not just tell me?”“Too much of free information is a disease.”“But how do I find that? Where do I go?”Aariv turned around. “Who were we just discussing?”“A human whore who my great grandfather adopted.”Aariv’s eyes flared in what might have been anger before it turned into an evidence frown of disappointment. “A whore?” he shook his head. “That’s what you’ll call her? You are not so much different from him, are you?”I stood speechless for a minute before I asked again, “Where do I start?”Aariv was patient enough to answer me. “Where it all ends in the story.”“Where does it end?” I wondered. Then it came to me. “The donjon!”“Good start there.” Aariv turned around and took his leave. “And while you are at it, just in case you come across someone you might want to let out of the place. Do well to not hesitate to do so!” he said as he entered his house. I knew h
Alice's POVThings has definitely not been easy for me. 'Why did I do it?' I had to ask myself and in no time that question takes its own toll on me. I don't know why I did what I did.This days, everything have just been so awkward and I don't even seem to understand some of it.I could really remember that things went the wrong turn.I know Samantha is angry with me, I can just say it's not my fault. Shooting at the arrow at her wasn't my intentions. How it ended in her body is still a question I find very difficult to understand.Right there, I dont know what to do, I am kinda confused and at the same time very clouded. My head is just there swimming through tons of thoughts at once.'What do I do now?' I practically don't have answers to the question remembring who Samantha is. Samantha is not just an ordinary person.I know very much that our friendship more intertwined but this issue that sets in, I guess it's really ready to tear us apart.Fear begin to sift into my heart bit b
AliceI trust Samantha do well, he will definitely come hunting for me. 'What do I do?' that question comes again and I am faced to make a choice.I know any choice I am making should be a choice I would definitely be able to decide on that moment. I should be foolish not have made my decisions right away.'Right now, I am so… so confused.' I inhaled and have the air in my gut thrown out. I swallowed the saliva I have in my mouth and place my hand under my chin thinking heavily.I know what I did was actually wrong, but I don't believe Samantha can do anything to me.While I try battling myself over this matter and trying to make a whole lot of decision. That moment I feel trapped and confined.I can't actually do anything, sitting down here would be the best.Immediately I have my mind made, I had an urgent memory strike that moment. 'If Samantha definitely gets healed he would come hunting me down.'Immediately this memory flash my mind, now I know I am done for. What to do is defin
Alice That is the only thing that gets itself rubbed on my emotions. I know the kind of person he is and that's the problem. Pleading is not really my problem, but I don't know if I can take in those nasty words.I can also be very deadly. A plea could eventually lead to something so heinous that will turn our friendship upside down and that is what I am trying to avoid here.I must be ready to chew all insults before proceeding. Nodding my head, I begin to reform my mind. I am trying to be strong. In that that, I take another step.Now, the more the step, the more scared i am. It's just as if I am entering the lions den, anything can definitely happen.Closing my eyes and exhaling heavily, my heart didn't shiver within me. All I have to do now is to walk on. I continue the walk with a golden mind. Having so many thoughts fall within that head of mine.After I have walked some distance, in no time I arrived at where he is. I have to halt my steps here. He hasn't seen me and so I have
AliceI know if it were to be me, I would have done something worse. As such, all I can do is to endure the moment and hope for the best to happen."Wasn't intentional," he begins to laugh so loud without really saying anything. What he did was to echoe that which I have spoken.'Damn…so scary,' the fear in me is raising it's ugly head based on his reaction and now I am just a bit closer to running off like a fool."Stop the charade, I said I am sorry," I expelled because that moment, I am already getting angry about the whole situation. It's damn annoying.I thought its something he would forgive not at the moment but maybe later. With his reaction I know this matter is not something he would be able to forgive easily but at least he should even reverence my coming.While I have different ideas fuel my thoughts. I couldn't just wrap my head around different facts all together."You are even yelling at me after getting shot by your arrow. How amazing…I wish you would have been the one
Alice I will call him a bastard if he doesn't really act to his words. I know I get angry easily and that is why I have taken several sighs and let so many air pass through my guts.He is just so annoying and very stupid. I know what I did is wrong but I don't feel he has the right to puke those words as he is doing that moment.He is just really annoying. Although, I won't take that to be something really serious. But already, I wil plan ahead and have his head removed if he tries anything funny.I believe no man Is above mistake. 'If he wants to threaten, I don't say he shouldn't but the promise he is making is already out of it and I will make sure I do things that he also would feel if tries anything.Stepping out of the place, I expelled what I have inside me. I am trying to get my head off those walls of his because he is really annoying.Letting out a sigh I have my hand cover my mouth next of the yawn I feel is coming. Not quite long I yawned out and aimed for my house with j
Alice POVI decided to visit Damien in his cell, I wondered how he felt being locked up like this. I wish he never thought of plotting a coup, nothing like this would ever have happened. Damien was my most trusted confidant and the feeling of being torn between my pack and my friend was something I didn't want to happen again. But I was more afraid of what might befall him during his trial. I was yet to figure out if Isac had forgiven him and if he had, what of the remaining members of the pack? Disloyalty wasn't something tolerated in Riverdale. He could be banished. The thought of him as a rogue, a vagabond, and every abominable thing in-between flooded my mind. He was very capable of surviving but I would never see him again. My heart skipped a beat at the thought of never seeing him again. What was wrong with me? I was probably overthinking things. Samantha flashed through my mind, it would be similar and maybe even worse. Samantha suddenly becoming hostile and distant bothered me
It was over it was finally over the long war had been put to an end everything would return to normal after this Alice chanted in her heart as the spell broke and she was released from Albert’s body he coiled at the far end of the forest it seemed it took a lot out of him he had helped although last minute he had come through for them releasing control to a person not more the creatures you dislike Emelia changed her form and rushed of to her mate, tears flowing down her cheeks in quick successions unto Lucas she held unto him tighter Alice looked away for she could not bear to recount how many wars she had lost, gathering her bag she walked deeper into the forest, it would take a while before all the realm heard of the battle that occurred so she would be fine for even a few hours sitting at an empty spot where dead flowers were scattered around, she wept for everything she had overcome staying at the spot with her head in her arms she calmed herself, suddenly she heard someone clear
“So you where the one after all” Alice spoke“How?? Did you know…what??” Albert asked in shame at his cover been blown “ I might be clueless to a lot of things but I am not shallow did you think I would believe that the monster was only one the LANTROPAC are a group of demons who travel in groups of ten or more you must imagine how surprised I was to find out that only one had been there pure instance you might say I also belied that too not until I took a walk down the forest to grab some herbs then I realized it but suspicion with proof was worthless so I gathered enough your nonchalance to blood although being a creature yourself the glee of pleasure every time battle arose as though you were ready for a kill but never truly fighting and cowering in what I would pretend to say is mock elusiveness you are not as elusive as you think dear Albert in a while kingdom and only one survives, of course, they choose to save their king as they all perish and he worries not for them for if h
“I can manipulate the mind and a few will agree that I can read the past as well a little bit of resistance to it would cause some discomfort and I must admit it has been a while since any mind gave me a struggle it is nice to have a little challenge ever now and then, now on to business at dawn you shall depart west the truth you serk us there or at least a guide wouldn't you say so Albert you are after all from the west realm" she replied while biting on some pie.“we shall head north as instructed we hope to trust your words” Alice spoke. In conviction with a silent nod at the table they broke bread eating in silence .Alice knew the danger she gas decided to embark on lena had powers in the north most of her demons dwelled north they would have to fight tooth and nail if they are to ever reach the north. She would not allow her win sighing in displeasure at Albert she groaned he had not been if much help you them so far in fact if they where to be honest he was more cowardly and
Alice arrived at the first destination which was a small carven, a bar to be more exact with a long sigh the gang went in. It looked like the typical inn creatures drunk out of their mind with several long mugs making said perverting remarks at the female who served them drinks yes it was the typical stop place looking around for an empty table they found one at the far end of the inn all nodding in agreement they took a slow stride to the table taking their sits they got to it. ”so far they have been no suspicious movement this looks to be the typical inn but open your eyes closer boys at the far end it seems only a few creatures are using that door and the giant at the front door why was he positioned at the door everything coming from that part looks suspicious.” Emelia raved “ I believe we should send two solders to check the back so as to camp out on and map out the area” Lucas added Alice replied this new piece of information with a nod two warriors immediately stood up and w
“Alice… Alice!, are you in there my dear it has been but a while since the rain stopped and you have been in your room all morning dear” Mr. Gerald spoke knocking once more for Alice“Yes father, I shall come out soon” Alice replied dashing off to her window she could see that the sun was finally out to play sighing with content she walked to her dresser picking up her cloak, a pouch of hidden spices and her mother’s spell book she walked into the kitchen her father as always was carving some sort of wood into something different he called it his own masterpiece…”father I shall head out to the fields I will be back soonest, once I return I shall be leaving at dawn papa I need to go back to my troops another war is coming and I would not want to be unprepared “she spoke “Return first my dear “ Mr. Gerald replied absent minded Taking up her boots Alice walked out and headed towards the fields a simple spell would have gotten her there faster but on a day like today walking was the sol
Alice “How dare you?” she spat you shall all pay for doing this she rose up with her hands in the air she casted her first spell “ sabtagos min paria” a storm like cloud formed around them understanding the spell and it’s significance Alice casted a spell at the nick if time “Recardonez un raptez “ dust like cloud covered the clouds as they turned to dust and where returned back to camp things did not turn out as hoped they all knew it the from faces of all the warriors where something to look by on she has failed her coven her clan and her people she needed so time alone to herself a moment to think of what next to do Lena was now a new witch with an agenda for revenge a new witch was dangerous on their own without a reason for control they where practically unstoppable, now Lena was one of those thriving in her new powers she would continue from where her mother stopped who knows even extend her hands to the rest of the realms facing Sabrina was one thing she was evil she killed t
A light groan could be heard coming off from the bed in the center of the room“Alice!” “Alice !” she’s waking up ….”Adrian go find Emilia hurry” Lucas yelled as he rushed off “Where am I” Alice asked in surprise looking around she realized she was home again or at least she hoped she was but seeing Lucas confirmed she truly was home her eyes watered to finally be back home whatever she saw a dream or reality she could still not understand but being in the arms of her friend she was safeHasty footsteps rushed into the room Alice was meet with the teary eyes of Emilia as she rushed to the bed and embraced her tightly both lost in each other’s embrace time seemed to come to a standstill as the men where asked to excuse Alice for a moment in other for her to change and refresh herself, “what happened to me Emilia” Alice asked With resolve and unhappiness Emilia recounted the events that occurred while Alice laid asleep“it was after the fight with the seven witches which had surroun
Alice“Alice stop spacing out and have your meal” her father spoke “Am sorry dad “ Alice replied back almost immediately “It’s all right sweetheart, I know the unexpected move must have taken quiet the toll on you and I haven’t been the best at sharing feelings your mum was better at this” her father confessed“no dad you’re a great father, it is I who haven’t given you an opportunity mummy’s gone and I need to grow past this and move on with you am sorry for the way I reacted yesterday. I still have u and you are a great dad” Alice replied “thank you Alice I appreciate the fact that you apologized taking you away from school and all your friends and what your used to. The tantrum was the least you could have done to make me upset” her father replied “so what am I going to be doing at home all day now that we are on the run” Alice sassed “ no young lady you are not going to be doing anything at home because you are going to be starting school tomorrow and you are going to partici
Alice“Argh!!’ She screamed."Alice calm down this is you, you are the one controlling it take deep breaths it is your emotions that are reflecting come on, Alice hold it in and command it to close. now Alice!"Alice stood still taking her hands towards the book she commanded it to close immediately the book closed it pages and the room returned to stillbess once again. " what just happened" Alice replied shakily " your mother and I thought we could stop it. We thought we could help you and shut you away from such powers now look what we've done you can't escape destiny, I should have realized that soon enough now Alice your powers have awakened I can't protect you anymore. They know you are alive you need to leave now" her father replied Alice watched in apprehension as her father took the stairs straight to his room waiting for a bit before deciding to follow him "that book in my library had been closed for over ten years I tried almost everything to get rid of it, it reminded m
