I picked my phone from the bed. Called Kaul.ON THE PHONE"Hey Beck" "Hi Kaul" I answered in a low tone. Very tired and bothered about the dream still. I was still resting my body in the bed, it made my voice got a bit deeper."What's up with you? You're sleeping?" "Yes, and no. I'm just in bed, that's all. Congratulations on your new work."Yes, thanks" he retorted. "You said, you want to talk to me about something. Which was weird, as I called your line numerous times, after that and your phone is switched off. Why?" He said worriedly."I... I had a dream last night, and the dream was a bit terrifying. I don't want to spoil your happy mood this morning, so I had to switch off my phone for our joy. Sorry.""It's nothing.""Okay thanks. I had a terrible dream." I narrated the dream In full details to him. I told him also the point of view of Myris about it, and how Dr Hitler got me standing in his office for long, for no specific reason, reasonable. ****Dr Hitler called me in, aft
I froze up immediately. Looked at Orlan's face and smiled forcefully. I grinned so hard that something would be noticed, if only Orlan was in a neutral mode, but luckily he was happy and delighted by Hitler's birthday. He presented the gift he brought to Hitler. Hitler, on the other hand, who was also shocked the appearance of his friend, Orlan. He hid his shock to Orlan, but was obvious to me. He smiled broadly to Orlan and took the gift, without uttering a word, he placed the gift, beside the cake on the table. "Thanks. A lot" Hitler managed to tell Orlan, before an emergency call came in to us. I stayed back, just as Hitler said to me, when he ran out of the room. "Don't worry, keep his company till I come back." He said and rushed out of the room to the other theater room. I stared at Orlan's eyeballs as he stared at mine, we smiled and hugged ourselves with a kiss. I smiled broadly as he backed off a bit. We held hands and walked to my office, passing through respects. He looked
"How is Orlan doing?" Dr Hitler asked me, as I wanted to step out of his office. "He's gone already sir." I raised my head to him. "Just a week and he's gone. He is really a jerk. Who visits his love for just a week and leaves." I knew where the words with make a stop and quickly I dropped the files and bid him bye, with a hastened step. I closed the door behind me and sighed. I walked to the secretary and worked on a blood sample with her. We filed it and I walked into my office, met a rose, with a tag on it. I froze at the door, looked left and right, behind me, maybe someone would look suspicious of keeping something like that there. Knowing fully well that I have two apparent enemies in the hospital, I checked for them, before going in, into the office. I moved to it and Dr Hitler appeared behind me, he peeped from above me. "What's that?" He asked with a suspicious tone. "It's nothing sir. It is just a gift." I responded "Hm, it is..." He muffled. I walked in alone and shut
The atmosphere was cold and silent as only the sound of ruffling leaves could be heard accompanied by a loud cry of a powerful werewolf, the night dark and far from safety.An awful smell polluted the air as birds of the night cried out for safety. Through the thick darkness, a young man was seen running fiercely through the deep woods, his hair dark as coal as it rested firmly on his shoulder. His lips were red as blood and his green eyes sparkled through the night in great fear. The heavy sound of his panting echoed through the woods which were fully guarded by tall trees as its leaves swung to the touch of the night breeze.Adolphus turned back with great panic in his eyes as beads of sweat formed on his forehead. His skin was as white as snow and his uncovered chest was filled with full hairs. He panted loudly as he ran faster than any werewolf that has ever lived but the more he ran, the more his strength faded.Adolphus glanced at his fingers which sprint out in the long and poi
"This is the myth of the legendary werewolf of mankind, evil and fierce and he kills without mercy, so brutal and relentless" The voice of Mama Gunad, the oldest woman in the village echoed in her small abode surrounded with candles and little children who sat in her most, their eyes wide open in fear and curiosity."Is he alive, mother?" a young child among the children asked with little eyes that were covered with fear.Mama Gunad's expression was suppressed as she looked at the child with a scary face, "Yes!" She roared, her eyes scanning the little children before her, "He lives far away from the reach of humans, bound with a curse that can never let him out, he…" A soft chuckle cut her through as a figure walked into her hut, her long black hair flowed gently behind her back, "Oh mother, when will you ever stop telling such tales about a legendary werewolf, we all know that he doesn't exist" Princess Lilia said on sarcasm as she stood beside the children who stared at her with a
Lilia strolled through the hallway and headed towards the throne room. She glanced down at the pink gown she decided to wear. It stood elegantly on her body but not regarding its beauty, Lilia felt very uncomfortable in it. She glanced at her hands that were covered in white long gloves, her hair was nicely packed by her maids with hairpins that added more radiating beauty to it. As she sauntered further, her blue eyes twinkled as unspoken words filled her mind. She wondered which kingdom this suitor comes from and his looks but one thing is certain that no man can ever win her heart. She got to the door of the throne room, from where she stood, she heard her father's voice along with an unfamiliar voice. The soldier at the door opened it widely for her as she stepped in, her eyes fixed on the young man next to her father.King Arthur looked up at the sight of Lilia, he smiled proudly at her look and was sure that her suitor would be thrilled by her captivating beauty. Queen Mena n
The sound of galloping horses was heard across the kingdom. Soldiers rode through the kingdom with sticks of fire in their hands as they safeguard the kingdom against invading enemies. Lilia hid behind a cart, a scarf tied around her head as she waited for a soldier galloping towards her. The soldier rode past her not noticing her presence, Lilia inhaled deeply in relief and quickly walked towards Mama Gunad's door. She knocked quietly not to attract the attention of a nearby soldier approaching her. She heard a voice indoors, "Open mother, it's Lilia" she whispered with her mouth pressed on the wooden door. Instantly, the door opened, Lilia quickly burst in and closed the door. The noise of the closing door attracted a nearby soldier. Quickly, Lilia hid under the old woman's bed, her hands over her mouth."I heard a noise in here," the soldier said firmly as he stared at the woman with angry eyes. Mama Gunad weakly held onto the door as she faced the intimidating soldier, "It's n
The sun shone brightly without mercy, the chirping sound of insects filled the woods as squirrels ran past the grass up to a tree trunk. Lilia's eyes flickered around as she walked on, she had been wandering around for hours but couldn't find a nearby village. Every moment she felt thirsty, she brought out the bottle of water in her bag, took a sip, and dumped it back into her bag just to preserve it. She doesn't know when she will find a village so she shouldn't be wasteful. As she walked on, her feet stepped on dry leaves as the rustling sound occupied her, she looked up at the tall trees before her, some of them had dry leaves which fell drastically to the ground but the rest were green and filled with fruits of its kind. She must find a way through these trees and get to someone as soon as possible but the more she walked, the more she became confused and paranoid. Lilia bit her lower lip with puzzled eyes, at a point, she began to feel weak and her feet began to hurt. She surv
"How is Orlan doing?" Dr Hitler asked me, as I wanted to step out of his office. "He's gone already sir." I raised my head to him. "Just a week and he's gone. He is really a jerk.

The door of the dungeon opened, Lilia looked up and saw Natacha who walked in with a tray of food. She placed beside Lilia who looked surprised, glanced at the food and back at her, "Why did you bring this? And didn't any soldier see you with it?' I asked all at once. Natacha scoffed, she opened a plate and the smell of cooked corn filled my nose. The food looked good too and the sight of it made my mouth water. I watched Natacha as she began to eat, she didn't say a word but ate continuously, her eyes searching my gaze as she ate. Soon, she finished the whole meal, drank a cup of water and smiled, "Now let's start" she announced.I looked at her with firm eyes, did she just bring in her food to make me yearn for it, this girl is unbelievable!Natacha saw the look on my face, she burst out into laughter, "Just look at your fave princess, you should have told me to bring some for you. This is my night portion and I decided to share it with you". She said, I nodded and fixed my gaze
King Arthur stared at Mena for a long time, his eyes couldn't believe who stood near him, he didn't know what to think. If this is the Mena he fell in love with or the witch that took her place. With shaky eyes, he stared deeply into her blue eyes, they looked calm, gentle and filled with love."Mena" he whispered with a rising emotion in his heart, "Is this really you?" He implored to be sure, this time, he does not want to make the same mistake he made eighteen years ago. Mena stared at him with a smile, her eyes welled up in tears, she couldn't believe that she would be able to stand near the man that she loves, the man who was taken away from her by her sister, her evil sister who has never wanted her happiness ever since they were kids. Mena knows how many sacrifices she has made just for Suna to be happy but she wanted more, even to the extent that she took her love and her child as hers.With affection in her eyes, she held King Arthur's hand and wrapped her fingers around him
The next morning, Lilia heard footsteps approaching her cell. She was awake all night and didn't sleep a wink, she studied each spell one page after the other and now, she knew all the content of the book. As the footsteps drew closer, Lilia quickly knew that more than two people were approaching, she stood up, raised her gown and tugged the book into her gown in a position where she wouldn't suspect a thing. Hastily, she sat on the floor and rested her head on the wall pretending she was fast asleep. The chains of the dungeon began to chatter, Lilia knew that they were entering, soon, she heard the door open and at once, she knew that it was Prince Philip, he was here to mock her.Prince Philip walked closer to her, he bent down and studied her face, a frown settled on him. With hardened eyes, he turned to the soilders next to him, his look ready to murder them, "I thought you said that she is badly injuries with brusis all over her skin, how come there isn't a sign of a wound on he
Lilia breathed deeply, her eyes slowly opened as the coldness of the dungeon overshadowed her. With pain all over her body, she coughed out loud and spat out blood at once, her body, weak and vulnerable. She thought she was going to die but finding herself back to the dungeon broke her completely down. Why can't fat just let her leave this cruel word and join her father in the after world, while she must continue to suffer, it's been years and she can't just take it all in anymore. She coughed again and spat out more blood, her face covered in dried blood that trickled down her forehead, nose and mouth. Soon, she heard footsteps approaching, the thought of the soldiers coming back for her made her skin crawl, her body was immediately filled with goosebumps. She tried to move her body but all to no avail, her whole strength was gone and whosoever that is coming should end it all for her, she is ready to move on and not suffer in anguish anymore. She heard the door of her dungeon unl
The loud cry of the soldiers was heard along with the villagers who stood apart and watched the princess dragged down the Stony path like a slave, chains tied around her hands and legs.Lilia breathed difficulty, her lungs were burning and the intense heat of the sun made matters worse for her. She screamed and begged, hot tears rolled down her eyes but the soldiers were merciless. Anytime she felt weak and fell to the ground, they beat her up with strong sticks in their hands or poured her with dirty water which they collected from some villagers' stalls. The whole town watched her brutally punished and treated inhumanely, bruises appeared on Lilia's skina ns more blood oozed out from her mouth, nose, legs and hands. The soldiers shouted at any passerby on their way. They dragged Lilia down into the market place and people who came to visit from neighbouring kingdoms watched the princess with pity in their hands, children who stood apart with their mothers cried out in tears, their
Lilia strolled down the royal garden as she cut the outgrown grass, her mind filled with Natacha words. Throughout the night, she couldn't sleep, the dungeon floor became too stiff for her to close her eyes thereby making a feeling of insomnia dawn on her. Her aunt, Queen Suna is a heartless witch and she is nothing like her mother. She wondered how many lives the queen must have claimed and how many she is planning on executing including hers so she must act fast, get accustomed to her powers and finally get revenge for the death of all the pains, tears and agony she has passed through.Lilia continued with the grass cutting, she tried not to get injured by the sharp cutter, she isn't used to this tedious work but ever since her life changed, she got used to a lot of things. With thoughts whirling in her mind, Lilia noticed the presence of someone behind her. It was broad daylight so there was nothing to be scared about. She pretended like she wasn't aware of the stranger's presence
Lilia walked out of the bathroom, she smelled nice and her washed hair was packed at the back with a rubber. She wore the simple and worn out gown Natacha gave her and honestly, she felt comfortable in it.She found Natacha waiting patiently for her, she sat on a sofa with a book in her hand. "You can leave now, once it is sunset, go into the woods and I shall meet you there, I know that you have burning questions that your heart needs to clear off" Natacha said in a stiff tone, her gaze fixed on the book she was reading. "Thank you" Lilia muttered and walked out the door. At the sound of the closed door, Natacha looked up and closed the book in her hand. Her brunette roommate, Genevieve with a pointed nose and black eyes, walked into the hut minutes later, "What was she doing in our home?" She inquired at Natacha who gave her a reluctant look."The queen requested that I have her washed and dressed" She briefly answered, got up and walked towards the bed leaving Genevieve looking a
Lilia opened her eyes to the sound of approaching footsteps, she could hear whispering but she couldn't fathom their words and she grew curious to know what they were talking about. She woke up hours ago to total darkness, with the strength left in her, she kicked and screamed but all fate was lost, she is locked up in here until someone comes to save her. Exhausted, she closed her eyes and inhaled deeply. She is a witch and should be able to cast some powerful spells but she knows none or anything relating to a witch. Her mother's words about her real identity ran in her head, her transformation baffled her even till this day, all these while in her life, she never knew that she is a werewolf, the same being she never believed existed, the same being she go deep in the cave and was terrified to look at. What will Adolphus think of her now that she is also part of him, she could see the sad look in his eyes when the truth about her being a witch was revealed, the pain his mother cau
