A day back. A man could be seen running in a hurry. He opened the door as quickly as he could rushing in. He tried to compose himself. "My lady." He called almost out of breath. "What is it Trey?" Sybil asked "My lady I just wanted too report something to you." Trey said"It better be worthwhile, else I would chop off your fingers." Sybil threatened "It really important my lady else I wouldn't think to disturb your rest. I think we're in trouble." Trey said"Why? Did the Queen say anything? I thought I asked you to he careful?" Sybil yelled "I was my lady and I still am but... Peterson has been arrested." Trey reported"What? How did that even happen?" Sybil asked "He kidnapped the young mistress of the Maximilian household as well as... Helen." "What? He went ahead to plan Helen's abduction without telling me? And why the hell did he take the daughter of the Maximilian?" Sybil asked "I'm not sure my Lady but... there's going to be a trial tomorrow." "And I wasn't invited?"
The court reconvened, thirty minutes had already elapsed and everyone was seated including Lucia. "So Peterson are you ready to answer the question?" "Who is your accomplice?" Wen asked "It doesn't matter who they are the fact remains, I'm the mastermind behind the death of Oliver." Peterson said"You have no right to speak to the council this way." Wen said "Wen, let it go." Lucia ordered"I'm giving my verdict. Peterson you are hereby sentenced to death. For killing a member of the elite and also for trying to steal the powers of another witch. Keep this in mind that whomever it is you're protecting we will find them. And just like you they'll be sentenced to death, probably receiving one of the most gruesome death possible." Lucia said mercilessly. "What method would be used your Majesty?" One of the councilors Dorian asked "He will be burnt at the stake." Lucia answeredEveryone began murmuring it had been years since someone was burnt to death and so they were surprised tha
Nolan arrived at Lucia's location which was the courthouse. He didn't want to see the judgement passed on Peterson, because he'll have to tell the girls he was going on a trip again. Lucia had asked him to investigate something else. But now she asked him to come to the courthouse and that it was slightly urgent, she also said the trial was over, if he was worried about that. "Mr Walter?" Adrian called recognizing him."Oh Adrian how are you?" Nolan asked"I'm good." "Nolan." Hailey greeted "Hailey, good to see you." Nolan said "Likewise." Hailey said"Adrian, how was the trial?" Nolan asked"It went well." Adrian answered "I'm glad it did. I have an appointment, please excuse me." Nolan said about to leave."Mr Walter." Adrian called"Yes." "I want to talk to you." Adrian said"Right now?" Nolan asked "After, your appointment." "It might take a while, why don't we schedule it some other time." Nolan said"I'll wait for you." Adrian said "You should probably go home with you
Sybil arrived home angry she began destroying everything that was in her way. "My lady, my lady please calm down." "That bitch. Ah." Sybil yelled throwing something else away. "Please calm down my lady. Trey persuaded"How could she, how could she say that to me?" Sybil said angrily"Everything would be alright in due time my lady." "When? She has a daughter and even if she is assassinated that little troublemaker would just take the throne." Sybil said "I tried using those monster attack, just to make sure that if the motion is pushed for her to be dethroned for incompetence I'd have supporters. But what did her daughter do? Time and again she destroys them." Sybil said angrily."Calm down lady Sybil if someone sees you like this they wouldn't want to support you. They'd say you're impulsive and irrational." Trey said trying to calm Sybil down "I don't care what they think, if I hadn't managed to get to Peterson in time, he would have exposed me. And I would be hung right besid
Nolan was all alone in his room when he dialed a number. "Nolan." Wendy answered "Is she there? I need to talk to her." Nolan said"Yes, she is." Wendy answered"Your Majesty." Wen said handing the phone to Lucia. "What is it Nolan?" Lucia asked "I have news. I want to show you the result of a test Audrey took." Nolan said "What test?" Lucia asked"A medical test. I was hoping you could help us understand it." Nolan said"Why did she conduct a medical test in the first place?" Lucia asked"She said she was feeling weak especially if she uses her powers. Do you think she's okay?" Nolan asked "Send me the results. I'll look into it, although I think she's okay." "I can't come to you so, I'll just take a picture of the result and send it to you." Nolan replied"Make sure Audrey doesn't find it." Lucia said"I will." ****"I need to talk to you." Carl said "Was that why you were stalking me?" Audrey asked. "Actually, I didn't mean to. But I had to, I needed you to be alone." Ca
Audrey and Adrian walked out the door and then Adrian remembered something. "Audrey I think I forgot something inside wait in the car for me okay." He said "Okay." Audrey answered and Adrian went back to doctor Allen. "What medication did you prescribe for Audrey?" Adrian asked"Don't worry, they're just vitamins." Allen said "Okay thank you doctor Allen." "I'm not a quack doctor okay. I don't know what's really wrong with her, so you don't expect me to give her pills that would harm her do you?" Allen asked "You're right." "I feel so guilty, lying to her." Allen said "Me too. I have to go before she suspects anything." Adrian said "Okay take care." Allen said "I will." Adrian returned to the car and Audrey asked "Did you find what you were looking for?" Audrey asked "Yes I did." Adrian said"I think doctor Allen was lying to me." "Why would you say that?" Adrian asked "Doctor Allen isn't clumsy, the last thing he'd do is drink coffee in front of his papers and work so
Audrey arrived home, she felt so confused about everything if Carl was telling the truth then it only means Adrian has been lying to her all along. But if he was lying and Adrian wasn't keeping any secrets from her then she would be suspecting him for nothing. Audrey fell on her bed thinking about everything when she heard a knock on the door."Who is it?" She asked "Can I come in?" "Adrian?" Audrey called opening the door for him. "What are you doing here?" She asked "I'm here to take you out on a date." Adrian said "I... I'm not ready." Audrey said "I'll wait for you downstairs, so you can get dressed." "Adrian I've got a few commitments to fulfill I hope you don't mind. Sorry but... I can't go out with you." Audrey said "Okay, can I help you with whatever it is you want to do?" Adrian asked with a smile. "Sorry Adrian, but I work better alone." Audrey said "What do you want to do?" "I want to paint. I'm sure you know I can't work with distractions, and you're seventy p
Audrey remembered that coming of age comes with a lot of responsibilities. She was a silver wolf, a rare breed she was worried she wouldn't be the same after her eighteenth birthday. "Audrey are you okay?" Josephine asked snapping her fingers. "Yeah, I'm fine. Just don't get me anything crazy for my birthday Josephine." Audrey said"Well of course not. It's the first time we get to buy you a gift from our hearts so I'm pretty sure you'll love it." Josephine said "Thanks, I guess this might just be a dream birthday." Audrey said with a smile. "I'll think of something nice but don't expect too much. I'm not that good at choosing presents and stuffs." Maxine said "That's okay Maxine." Audrey said The next day Audrey was to meet up with Adrian and Greta to study the map. There was three days left before the annual meeting begins but Nolan and Eleanor would be leaving in two days time. *ring* ring* "Hello." Audrey answered "Audrey are we going out with Adrian today or you don't w
