“Where are you taking me to?” Carmella asked in fear when she found herself in front of a cave, it looked totally dark inside and she couldn’t deny how scared she was, she turned to Azora who looked supernaturally confident with a little smirk glittering from the end of her dark lips.
Carmella bowed her head with guilt running through her veins, she knew the woman was right, she was the one who needed her help and not the other way round but how on earth was she supposed to cope with trusting a stranger who might end her life at any minute, she doesn’t know where she is taking her to and doesn’t understand a single thing that might happen once they get to where ever they are going.She shut her eyes for a while and took a deep breath “for once Carmella you have to take the bull by the horn and face whatever that it is out there, if Diana ever returns to the clan you are equally dead so what is there to risk? You have got no choice than to do this, this woman is your only way out of this mess, she is your only way of getting yourself married to Joshua, she is your only way of destroying Diana forever and covering up the tracks of the mistake you made years back, I still don’t understand how she survived fallin
It was day break across the cave and their was a big river right ahead of them, she was bewildered and couldn’t explain what she was just seeing “what is this place?” She asked in amazement.“Home….” Azora answered smiling.Carmella gasped “you live here, this is so beautiful, I haven’t seen anything like it my entire life” she took a quick glance around and couldn’t help gasping.There were beautiful flowers growing everywhere, the sky was bright and beautiful and the trees looked so appealing with fruits hanging down it.“This is why they tagged this part of the forest forbidden cause they can’t explain the wonders of it, it looks ugly at first but across the cave is beauty beyond their understanding” Azora grinned.Carmella shook her head sadly “
Carmella was too scared to ask any questions, she just nodded quietly, then the thought of Joshua crept into her mind “How…. How am I going to get Joshua to fall in love with me? He is still in love with my sister.”Azora sighed “I can’t make Joshua fall in love with you and marry you, but what do you think would happen when you have successfully killed your sister? Of course he would have no other choice than to marry you which automatically makes you the next queen of the clan since Emma wouldn’t live forever” she smiled.Carmella nodded with a confident smile “you’re right, but how am I going to kill that bitch?”Azora cleared her throat “you have a million advantage Carmella, she lost the memory of her past after she survived what happened years back but it didn’t stop there, the effects of the accident is worse cause s
She fell roughly on the floor almost scratching skin off her knee and elbow.“Ouch!” She cried out narrowing her face in pain with her eyes still shut.She groaned in pain for a while biting softly at the end of her lower lip, slowly opened her eyes, she gasped in fear and took a quick glance around jumping to her feet in a haste.“What the hell?” She cried out in utmost amazement “how on earth did I get here so fast?” She thought aloud gritting her teeth in fear, her eyes were moving everywhere in search of Azora but she was no where to be found.Of course it was morning already, the sun was moving gradually into the open sky ready to kiss bodies in few hours as she could feel a little heat on her neck and bare shoulders.Carmella took a deep sigh, she was in front of the cave where she started her journey
She sighed “well what matters most is that I am okay, nothing happened to me” she turned away from him.“I was running after you yesterday, how come you disappeared into thin air and didn’t return home last night, did anything happen?” He asked looking very curious.“Terry are you interrogating me or what? What the heck do you care about what happens to me or not? I am not your sister or mother, so fuck off” she said in anger.“I know you aren’t related to me Carmella, but you know how much I love you which also means I care about you, I was very worried about you ” he said in a lovely tone.She sighed shaking her head “why do you keep deceiving yourself? How many times have I told you Terry that I don’t want you neither do I want to have anything to do with you? I am not the only wolf in this cl
“Now I am really getting even more pissed” Zara said in depression pacing her small living room.Her eyes were slightly blood shot and her hands trembled slightly, she barely slept last night cause she was very worried about her daughter, at intervals she came to take a look outside wondering if she was back, she was scared that Carmella might suddenly disappear just like Diana did.She could see the sun gradually prepare to set in the west and yet her daughter wasn’t even home, she moved over to a wooden chair and sat down supporting her cheeks with her hands while she gulped down the silence of the room and paid deaf ears to every other little sound that came from outside.Zara would always say to herself that her life started turning upside down the very moment she lost her husband, of course she knew she hasn’t been totally honest with her daughters about what happened to
Emma gasped “why would you ever say something as ridiculous as that? Yes he might have lied against me but Terry is also like a son to me, I raised him behind the walls of this palace so why would you ever ask if I am hating on him?”Joshua looked disturbed “you would never ask me to go out alone mother but now you’re asking me to, you have really got to give Terry a break, he is not just my right hand man, he is also my friend.”Emma looked away and scoffed slightly “sometimes some friendships are meant to be broken, if only you know exactly who you are dealing with here son, you would forget about having anything to do with Terry” she mumbled to her self“You say what now mother?” He asked bringing his ear closer on noticing that his mother had just said something, at least he saw her lips move.“Oh&hellip
Emma jerked up on her feet, enveloped in deep thought on what to do about Terry and his stubbornness, she shrugged on a second thought, since Carmella didn’t want anything to do with him, it was of no point being bothered, all she had to do was talk to Carmella as well and that’s that “he should keep being stupid and wasting his time but…. If Carmella didn’t spend the night in her house, then where exactly did she spend the night? And how come Maria said she was looking dirty and tattered? Was she attacked by a wild animal or maybe….. a human?” She thought aloud and her eyes grew wide “that is the only explanation for this, else why else would a young woman not spend the night in her house and return the next day looking very dirty?” She gritted her teeth and shook her head slowly “Carmella is a good girl, I am sure she must have encountered a huge danger after what happened between her self and my son, why is Joshua ju
Carmella left the room angrily, she walked into her room and met Leonna cleaning it, she went straight to her and grabbed her by the hair "you little bitch, you really want to reap where you did not sow huh?"Leonna groaned in pain totally unaware of what Carmella was talking about "what have I done?" She cried out."You want to become queen huh? You want me to bow at your feet?" She yelled pushing her to the wall.Leonna hit her head on the wall turning around slowly with her forehead bleeding slightly, their were equally blood stains on the wall, she could feel heavy headache on her head too, Carmella cared less about that her bleeding forehead "it would be over my dead body that I would allow you marry Terry, listen to me, you won't and would never marry him, he belongs to me and me alone, I have always been the one he loved, not some low life like you" she said wagging her finger at her.She shook her head sadly, she just couldn't believe that all the yelling was just because of T
The day was gradually coming to an end, Terry retired to his room, he had actually started occupying Joshua's chambers, he had sent for Leonna who arrived few minutes later standing by the door."Come in and shut the door..." He said on seeing her.Leonna was scared, she just didn't want to come anywhere close to him, never have she imagined that Terry was evil but today she witnessed him treat a wolf who have loved him like a brother like an enemy and that was something she wouldn't forget in a hurry, she shut the door and stood by it with her hands properly folded."Please sit,I want us to talk" he said."I don't want to, whatever you want to say, please say it now, I was busy before you sent for me" she said looking away.Terry sighed walking closer to her, he knew that she was angry with him, he cleared his throat "we have always liked each other alot and because of the rules guarding the palace, we couldn't show our feelings properly nor have a good relationship, when I said that
"What... What did you just say Azora?" Zara asked standing to her feet.Azora laughed "you haven't told them yet? How you were so jealous of your kid sister cause she married the man of your dreams and you decided to end her life just to have him all to yourself yet it took you so many years to get married to him, did you also tell them how you asked me for powers to get rid of her when she found out that she was still alive, how you went to poison her but ended up poisoning yourself, how you went the second time but disgraced yourself and showed your real face cause you always take the form of her human husband's personal assistant's face? She never eloped with a human just like she always claims, Diana is a survival of attempted murder by her own sister! and did you also tell them that you have pushed her off the cliff the second time? poor girl.. I doubt if she would survive this time around.""I survived...." Diana said walking into the throne room, her hands were dripping of blo
By the time he got to the palace, what he saw was what he didn't expect, someone else was sitting on her mother's throne and Terry sitting on his, could this be a dream or what?" He thought "what are you doing Terry? Why are you sitting on my throne?" He asked turning to see his mother, the queen, Zara,Maria and Leonna sitting on the floor."I don't get this Azora, this is not our agreement, why the hell would you ask a servant to sit on my husband's throne?" She yelled in anger."He has equal rights as your so called husband does and therefore deserves this throne better" Azora said with a proud smirk on her face.Joshua was shocked "and what is that supposed to mean? Would you get off that throne this minute!" He yelled at Joshua trying to grab him."If you dare touch me, trust me brother you wouldn't like what I would do to you, I have every right to be on this throne and if you're still so confused, maybe you should ask your beloved mother here" Terry said pointing at pointing at
Zara left her house at once without saying another word to Joshua, Leonna followed her at once,the king looked totally speechless, he turned to Diana "stay here, I would be right back."Diana shook her head in disapproval "I can't, I must go with you.""But it might be dangerous" he explained."I don't care, I am going with you" she said sadly grabbing his hand.The king sighed, it was truly obvious that he had no other choice but to allow her follow him just like she wants, few minutes after they left the palace, Joshua was feeling really pressed, so he asked Diana to wait for him under a tree while he goes to ease himself, while he was doing so Carmella crept from behind, she was actually on her way to her mother's house when she saw the king walking side by side with Diana holding her hands, he didn't notice her presence as he was backing her, Carmella grabbed a log of wood which was lying on the floor and hit it behind his head, Joshua fell on the floor and passed out at once, she
She arrived the palace and fear gripped everyone at once but before the guards in the palace could attack her, she bewitched them and made them bow at her feet while she grinned with so much delight feeling so fulfilled. Leonna was just done massaging Carmella's leg and had walked out of her room in tears when she noticed something awkward going on in front of the palace, she noticed a strange woman on a black rope chanting some words and making everyone bow at her feet, fear took grip of her and she fled at once to the back of the house running as fast as she could to inform the king of what was going on since she had seen him leave earlier and was so sure he had gone to see Diana and her mother.Carmella noticed a weird kind of silence and walked out of her room looking at each corner of the palace in fright, she could tell that something was wrong, she walked into the throne room and saw Azora standing there,she gasped and at the same time smiled walking majestically to stand in fr
At once he left his room to meet his mother and Carmella in the throne room, he tried greeting her to release him but she bluntly refused, for the first time he witnessed his mother swear over and over again to deal with Terry, she stood up pointing fiercely at her son “he brought that woman into this palace, she is not and will not be accepted here, I might spare her life and pardon her for what she did to the royal family, after all we have her elder sister here with us now to take her place but I would never accept her into this palace.”The king chortled “then get ready to loose your son and the king of this land” he said walking out on them.Queen Emma gasped in confusion.Carmella stood up and ran straight to her room shutting the door behind, she looked so upset, she turned the mirror and started summoning Azora and in no time she could see her image in the mirror , with so much bitterness behind her voice she told her all that was happening at that moment and Azora told her wh
Few hours later, they arrived the village and the palace in particular, the wedding ceremony have been conducted as people could be seen dancing and eating, Zara whose face was covered with sadness was about leaving the palace when she sighted Diana in the company of Terry, she gasped in shock “Diana!” She called out in a loud tone.That instant every where was silent, the music stopped, everyone turned around staring at Diana who looked totally confused, a palace guard ran into the palace building, the king, queen and Carmela were in the throne room when he came to inform them of the latest development, Carmella was the first to run out of the throne room to confirm what the guard had said, on stepping out she saw Diana standing beside Terry, it was obvious that he was the one that brought her back home “I knew it that he would do whatsoever it takes to ensure that my happiness is completely snatched away from me” she muttered feeling so upset, the queen and the king were soon outsid
Melanie had slept off in the hospital after having a good time with her daughter the previous day, she actually spent the night on the couch pondering over what Joshua had told her that evening especially about the wedding, she felt irritated and upset and wondered how many more evil people existed in the world if her own sister could go as far as wanting to marry her husband, her eyes gently went open when she heard footsteps approaching the ward, she felt really weak and her body ached a lot, she looked up and there stood the female doctor who have been taking care of her daughter, she smiled at her “good morning…” she greeted almost in a faint tone. The doctor smiled at her in response as they both stepped outside few minutes later to have a conversation after she was done checking on Brenda who was still very much asleep.Melanie cleared her voice “so when can we go home doctor?” She asked politely.“You’re free to go today, she’s okay, the least you can do is bring her twice ever
