~LEAH~It's been two weeks now and I can walk on my own without a wheelchair. Jake stopped the doctor from coming, I don't know why, but I think I always see jealousy in his eyes whenever I'm with the doctor or maybe I was just over thinking.I love those times I spent with Charles and Jessie, at least they made me forget most of my worries, but now it is all boring not having them around.For the past two weeks I haven't seen mum and Jake keeps telling me not to trust my mum, that she ran away, but I don't believe that. I know my mom, even if she is bad she won't be bad on me. If she wants to run away she will definitely tell me.Jake's aunt is deceiving him, but I don't know how to prove it to him because I need evidence. I need strong evidence and I need to find out what that woman is planning. I need to know what her aim is, and why she lied to Jake. But at some point I'm scared....what if it's true, what if mum actually killed Jake's parents. Oh!God I'm actually going crazy righ
~LEAH~I stare at my image from the large vanity mirror. Jake brought two makeup artists to get my makeover done and right now I can't believe that this is actually me. I look so different and I never knew I'm this pretty. Though I tried to be happy, it is just so difficult. I'm still thinking about what Jake's aunt said. Could she be right? Did mum actually kill Jake's parents? No, I will never believe such. I don't have to trust that woman. "You look so beautiful ma'am," one of the makeup artists complimented me and I smiled. "Thank you," I beam out.Is this a dream or what ..... Like real, I will be going out with Jake tonight. It's so pleasurable.My room door flung open and Jake walked in. I saw him through the mirror. The make-up artists bowed and left the room immediately.I was thrown into nervousness as usual, I stared at his handsome face through the mirror. He is dressed like a cool gentleman, he is in all white attire and he dyed his hair gold allowing it to fall over
~EMILY~I came out from the mall with the items I bought, not me actually carrying it but my driver. I can't believe that Jake took Leah out for dinner yesterday and he even appeared on television with her. That means he has let the world know that Leah is his wife, he has accepted her as his wife. This is really bad, how will my plan work out successfully if Jake falls in love with Leah. I really need to stop his feelings for Leah at once. No matter what, I will make sure that Jake will be the one to kill Lydia because that's what I've wanted.I bumped into someone as I was going to my car while I was in deep thought."What the heck!" I groaned angrily, I was about to descend my anger on the person but I recognized her at once."Nala?" I mutter out, surprised to see her."Nadine?" she called out, surprised too. Actually Nadine is the name they call me in my own world."Nala what are you doing here?" I am still puzzled."I will be asking you, Nadine, you suddenly disappeared and n
~LEAH~I was still under the bed panicking and praying silently. I closed my eyes, ready to face any outcome. She stops in front of the bed. I think she was about squatting, but the ringing of her phone distracted her."Okay, I will be there right now," she said after a few seconds. Then I heard her footsteps moving back, the door making some creaking noise afterwards and a shutting sound.I am relieved, I think she is gone, but who called her and where is she going. I quickly slide out from under the bed and rush to the door. I need to follow her behind to know where she is going and who she is meeting.I slowly open the door and tip toe silently, I search around with my eyes, but I couldn't see her. Where is she? She is just too fast, but it hasn't been two minutes since she left the room. I followed the stairs downstairs but still couldn't see her. How could she have left so fast? Damn it, I should have been a bit faster, I really need to know what she is up to.I was about headi
~JAKE~I kept thinking about last night, I feel that something happened, but I can't just remember. The only thing I remember was trying to get myself drunk in the bar, but I found myself in my room this morning or I must say noon. I was trying to concentrate on my laptop but I just can't, my head hurts a bit as I'm trying hard to think back and I can't get Leah off my thoughts too.I don't know what she has done to me these past few weeks, I'm becoming weak in taking my revenge on her mother. But still her mother needs to pay, she made me grow up without my parents. I ran my palm through my face as I walked inside the bathroom. A lot is going on in my mind, maybe I can cool off by taking a cool bath. ~EMILY~I walked inside Jake's room, I will make sure to convince him to use his power to kill Lydia and that will be today. I made sure to send Leah out with the house help by asking them to purchase something from the mall. I wrote a letter and kept it in her room, she will be sh
~AUTHOR'S POV~"Today shall be your end, evil Lydia.... You shall pay for killing my sister and her son will be the one to kill you," Emily gushed out. Lydia widened her eyes in shock as more tears streamed down her cheeks. She can't believe Emily is about to carry out her plans. She is about to make her son kill her.She was shaking her head negatively as more tears flowed down. Jake was staring pitiful at her. He is confused about what to do, whether to kill her or leave her."Go on now, kill her for that's what she deserves," Emily voice out and Lydia gasped as she was shaking her head negatively in tears."You think I wanted to do this? You don't want to die, but you killed my own parents. Why did you do that? Why were you so heartless? You made me live without my parents. And because of what you did, I live all my life seeking revenge. I'm sorry but you will have to pay for killing my parents," Jake said in tears and he couldn't explain why he was crying. He stretched his pal
~LEAH~I couldn't believe that my mother was dead. I will never forgive Jake for that..... I will make him and his aunt pay for killing my mother. At first I thought that Jake had changed because he was being so caring but I was wrong because he didn't change a bit.I was stupid to allow him take my virginity...... I was carried away by his fake love and caring and he lied about not knowing where mum is, meanwhile he knew about it all these while. I hate myself for loving a man like him. I endured all the pain he gave me, but I will never endure the pain of losing my mother, that's why I'm going to make him pay. I won't be able to forgive him.But I still wonder how I managed to escape from them. I mean how I managed to get here. Did I actually teleport to this place, but how. Everything that happened to me back there was so strange to me, I just couldn't understand it.Back there, I felt some powers growing in and it was confusing, maybe I shouldn't think more about
~LEAH~Two weeks later ....I stare out through the window as the tears slide down. Losing mum hurts so much and I blame myself for her death. I really miss her and it's more hurtful that I didn't hear her last words. It's already been two weeks and I've not done anything to make those murders pay, it hurts me that they are still roaming around freely.A hand gently touches my shoulder and I turn swiftly just to face Amber. She opened her arms widely for me and I threw myself in her arms. "I can't bear it Amber, it's just so painful. I won't be able to forget my mum's death and it hurts that I'm not punishing those that killed her. It's two weeks now and I've done nothing to make them suffer," I mumbled."I will always be by your side and I will be there for you always.... Just know that. I promise you that everything is gonna be fine," she whispered and hugged me tighter."I don't care about myself, but one thing I know is that I will make sure they die the same way they killed
~CASSANDRA POINT OF VIEW~ They decided to team up with us. By tomorrow we will start training them, I mean Daniel because I know nothing about fight "I know that we are not enough to bring Lucas down but if we all have the spirit, we will be able to take him down just as the little we are." I addressed them. "He has killed a lot of people and that's why we agreed on taking this risk and also, he killed every member of the royal family." one of the men said and I quickly glanced at him.What does he mean, is he trying to say that Andrew is dead."What do you mean by the royal family?" I ask "Yes, he killed all the royal family and also the Prime minister and his wife." he replied and I was frozen at that moment.I couldn't hold back the tears, though they are not my real parents but still .... Their death hurts a lot.And Andrew, it hurts so much because he died when trying to help me. I felt a soft finger on my cheeks which slowly wiped my tears away.I stared u
~CASSANDRA POINT OF VIEW~I was still wandering in the forest, I wonder what has happened to Andrew, I hope he is fine. I don't know how I am going to find Daniel, it is not going to be easy. Lucas will surely pay for everything he has done, I will make sure of that. Right now I am not thinking of going back to my own world, I will only go back after I am done making Lucas pay for his wickedness.I got tired and decided to rest and I am also hungry. I was sleeping when I felt a soft hand running through my lapsI quickly jerk up just to see three guys staring lustfully at me."Hello beautiful." one of them said and licked his lip seductively."Why don't we have some fun." the second one add "You will like it." the third one chip in. They look like thugs, I was caught with fear immediately. I wonder what they are going to do to me in this lonely place.I quickly sprang up. I took some steps back while they took some steps towards

~CASSANDRA POINT OF VIEW~I was in my chambers in tears. I was forced to marry Lucas the new king and I'm now the Queen.The prime minister that called himself my father was never a good man. I can't believe he also had a hand in the death of the King. I'm tired of staying here, I really need to go back to my world but first of all I will need to find Daniel and make him take his responsibility. He can't run away from his destiny because he is destined to be the King and rule his people with love and care. I stare at my image in the mirror, I was clad in the Queen's attire.Lucas killed all the governors but spared the prime minister because he is my father. That guy is so wicked, I won't be his wife for long. I will find out all his weaknesses and once I'm able to find Daniel we are going to use it against him.A maid walked in. "The King wants to see you in his Chambers," she said politely with a bow.I fake a smile. He is such a fool for marrying a lady th
~AUTHOR'S POV~Two days after the rebellion. Queen Dowager arranged for the crown prince's coronation. Many people from different regions in Joseon were invited and the palace was filled with people.Cassandra doesn't understand a thing, she only heard of the rebellion and she wondered what happened to Daniel. She can't believe that her father was part of it, that shows the prime minister is not a good man. He was blinded by his greed for power and more wealth and that's why he wanted her to marry the crown prince.She doesn't know how she can stop the wedding and she tries running away but it wasn't in her favor. Things are getting too much in this past world and she really needs to find a way to go back to her own world. She can't trust anyone here, they are all selfish.She remembered the history their teacher taught them about Joseon in 1427 and everything that is happening now is exactly what their teacher said. That story didn't end well but she will make things right, sh
~AUTHOUR'S POV~Queen Dowager and the governors including the prime minister sat for a secret meeting. "We need to act fast before things will run out of our favor." Dowager speak up."But why should the King try to make Daniel the son of a mistress our next King. We have never thought of that." one of the governors said."Your majesty, we hope that we won't regret supporting you. I'm afraid the crown prince might lose the throne," another governor said, referring to Dowgar. "You don't have to worry governor Sylvester, you all won't regret supporting me, the crown prince must be the King. Once he becomes the King I will reward you all handsomely," Dowager cuts in."But how are we gonna make the crown Prince the King? It won't be easy now that the King has given Daniel the mighty sword because mighty swords are given to the next Kings." another governor said.Dowgar smiles evilly as they all forward their attention to her. "It is not something to worry about because I have
~AUTHOR'S POV~Cassandra was still struggling in the water, she has drank a lot of water and was gasping for breath. When she lost the strength of fighting in the water she gave up. She was slowly falling deep inside the water as her eyes became blurry but at a point she saw an image coming towards her.Her eyes were too weak to recognize the person, she did not put effort, she just closed her eyes cos she has already lost the hope of surviving. Daniel swam as fast as he could, he came rushing to the place just at the right time.He saw Cassandra deep down in the water as she was falling deep, he streamline his body and faster swim up to her.He got hold of her and swam up with her.He came to the shore as he gently pulled out from the water with Cassandra who had already fainted. He carefully dropped her on the ground, he applied pressure on her so she could vomit all the water she drank while being drowned but she couldn't.Her
~ CASSANDRA~I woke up one morning just to face what I call blackmail. I've bluntly refused to marry the crown prince but my dad just came up with an idea to make me give in. He set a rope trying to hang himself and said that he will come down only if I agree to marry the prince. I was sleeping peacefully in my room when my personal maid Zara rushed into painting, it took her a while before she told me what was happening. "Come quickly my Lady, you need to stop your father right now!" she rushed out her words. I couldn't waste time, she dragged me to the place. My new mum was there crying and the servants were also crying. "Eda my dear please accept your father's request already, you wouldn't want to see your father dead ..... Will you? " she cried out.I closed my eyes and opened them in frustration, this man is very intelligent. He chooses this strategy because he knows he's gonna win. What do I do now? I don't want to marry the cro
~AUTHOR'S POV~"I said let go of her, Lucas." Daniel g groan colder. Lucas' eyes have already turned red in anger. He hates Daniel and cannot take it if he tries to command him, his anger makes him grip on Cassandra even tighter. She winced out in pain."Leave me, you are hurting me." Cassandra cried. Daniel ball his fist in anger.Though he doesn't know who the girl is, he still hates what Lucas is doing. It pains him when a girl is sexually harassed. Girls are weak to fight for themselves and men take such an opportunity to harass them."You are testing my patience Lucas. Let go of that girl now!" Daniel grouses in all seriousness. Lucas scoffed and chuckled sarcastically.Cassandra is a bit relieved that someone came to her rescue, who knows what Lucas is planning to do to her."And if I said no, What would you do, Daniel. You are nothing but a mistress's son." Lucas blurts out sarcastically.Daniel's eyes dim in anger as his chest was rising wi
