Melanie had a bright smile at the end of her lips while little Brenda leaned her on her, she was standing in their little garden picking rose flowers just like Brenda had just suggested earlier. Previously Melanie was having a hard day after she ended up being a punch bag to Charles for the day. Earlier that morning… Melanie could swear that she woke up from the good side of the bed, she actually slept in her daughter’s room that beautiful Saturday morning. This has become a normal routine for her since she recently spends most of her time at night reading bed time stories for Brenda and was the little girl falls asleep, she equally falls asleep beside her. The previous day was really a hectic one for her and she did a lot of chores, she raised her hands above her head stretching her hands and feet with her eyes looking puffy, she staggered
The forced and tight grip he had over her hands was really hurting her as she could feel his nails getting deep into her skin, it was really painful and she could help wincing over and over again why she struggled to get his hands off “let me go!” She cried out, tears crawling out of the ends of her eyes. Charles persisted, he rather made his grip tighter and grabbed her by the hair. “Let my mother go!” Brenda yelled jumping to her feet. She ran straight to her father and bite him really hard on the arm, which left his hand bleeding and blood stains on her mouth. Charles was shocked and so was Melanie. Brenda took steps backwards, she couldn’t believe that she was able to make her father bleed with a bite from her teeth, she placed her hand over her mouth and moved a little backwards, she was feeling str
Charles watched her with awe and finally scoffed “now I get it, now I get it, just like always you want me to help you understand who you are, goodness I am really getting so tired of doing this” he cleared his throat.Melanie said nothing, she only watched him as he paced the kitchen.“Alright, I would do you the favour just like always, well your name is Melanie, the witch upstairs that bite me is your daughter, you are my wife but you know what…?” He moved closer to her and grabbed her by the jaw “you mean absolutely nothing to me.”That really hit Melanie hard on the chest, she couldn’t believe he could say that to her face, well she wasn’t surprised about whatever he said about who she was because she already knew but it was obvious that their was something different about her today.She tried to speak, she want
“You’re so lucky not to have gotten an infection, animal bites especially dogs are really dangerous” the doctor said after he was done taking care of Charles wound. “An animal?” Charles repeated in shock glaring at nothing in particular. Rose gulped hard staring strangely at the doctor who wondered why they were acting like they were unaware of what he was talking about, he signaled on the nurse who was carrying a tray containing first aid materials. The nurse nodded and walked out of the room leaving them alone with the doctor who stood up from where he stood adjusting the stethoscope placed comfortably around his neck, he had this faint look on his face, tall and elegant of a man though not as Charles who couldn’t stop grunting in pain despite being administered an anesthesia. Rose couldn’t help not watching her le
“I really find it so hard to believe that a bite from a child who still has more of milk teeth could do something as horrible as this to your arm, the doctor was right when he said it looks like a dog bite, why is her teeth that sharp?” She asked looking away. “And how am I supposed to know that?” He asked hissing. Rose scoffed “I wasn’t expecting you to answer that and please stop acting like I was the one that sent Brenda to bite you, I wonder what you did to her that made her do this to you.” “Well… I was trying to teach Melanie the lesson of her life and then the little rat ran from no where and bite my arm so hard, I wish Melanie didn’t stop me, I would have ended up sending her to her early grave” he said in rage. She sighed “for once in a long time, I am glad about something Melanie did.” Charles turned to her at once “which is?” “Stopping you from hitting Brenda, are you that crazy that you didn’t mind hitting a child? Have you
“When did cooking become your problem Charles? If we get married tomorrow we can still hire as much servants as we want or do you expect me to stress myself doing all those chores just like Melanie? I am definitely not cut out for that” she said raising her right hand. Charles gulped hard when he heard her mention marriage “like she’s thinking that I would ever ask her to marry me?” He chortled shaking his head “their is no way I am getting married to this whore” he mumbled still wearing a smile on his face. She stole a glance at him, she noticed the smile on his face and decided to inquire about it “what’s the smile for?” He shrugged “nothing at all…” "Can you cook?” She asked, she felt it was still about the old topic. “You mean me?” He asked. She nodded "you of course? Who else is in this car with me?" "Your late great grandpa" he answered. She gasped "what?"
Now Charles was getting really pissed off and he wondered how much longer he would stand and watch Rose rant like a mad woman over what he considered irrelevant. Melanie would never to raise her voice at him in such manner over issues like that, not because she was scared of getting hit by him but rather because she had some good manners in her and he believed that wherever she came from before she was adopted, she was well trained. Charles buried his other hand into his pocket strating blankly at Rose who's voice was above the roof, he couldn't recall a single thing that she said as he was totally absent, all he could hear was faint sounds send her mouth moving up and down. "Did you hear what I just said?" He finally heard Rise say. He was shivered out of his thoughts at that moment, feeling cold, tired and hungry, truly all he needed at that moment was some food and a good rest but Rose didn't look like she would allow him do either of that.
Melanie groaned in pain gritting her teeth, she walked into her matriomonial room, her eyes were everywhere capturing evetu nook and cranny of it like one who woke up up and found herself lost in a strange Island.She knew she have been in this house for ages and though the room seemed a lot familiar, she couldn't stop her self from.the strange feelings flowing through her veins.Her body ached a lot, she tried to touch her arm and then the pain felt like hell just decended on her "ouch!" she cried out, her eyes slowly shut in agony.She shivered for a while and found herself moving over to the bed, she just wanted to sit and perharps stretch her aching body, she shook her head sadly with the thought of what Charles just did to her few minutes later runinng through her mind, she was also still trying very hard to digest the fact that the man whom she called het husband have been dating a woman whom introudced herself to her the previous day as her best fri
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
