Azalea and Ayden sat outside the royal infirmary in the cool outdoor breeze, watching the fireflies perch from plant to the plant and lighting up the surroundings beautifully. The scenery of the flies in display was a really nice one to gaze at, even with the absence of the stars or moon that were meant to give light to the dark cloud.

Ayden who continued to pass side glances at his maid, whose eyes was focused on the herb garden and flies, bothered that the mild breeze that carried along with it cold, could make her condition worsen. He slipped her left hand in his right hand gently, feeling it constantly like he would be able to tell, if she felt cold in her body by the temperature of her hand.

"Are you sure that you are fit enough to sit here with me?" He finally voiced out, turning to look at her through the right side view of her still pale face. He really worried so much that as persistent as she claimed fine, she could be in pains.

"Of course master. I am fine. There are so ma

    "Goodness! The medicine," the healer screamed out in an attempt to pick up the medicine bowl, that was left to fall through the air to the ground splattering out its contents. The trio who had fallen to the floor so hardly soon overcame the shock, as they laughed at the stupidity each of them had displayed in those few minutes. Ayden who was still grinning at the action that had just taken place, heard the healer clamor for the wasted medicine and immediately stood to his feet. "Are you supposed to be concerned about the medicine that spilled to the floor, or we that are yet to recover from one illness, and still hit hard against the floor?" Ayden asked the fidgety man with a grim attitude, pretending to be really pissed off by the act. "Ahh, ahh," Zachary let out a forced chuckle, as he stood to his feet dusting every spec of dust from his cloth with both hands. He also helped Azalea too get up on her feet, who was still grumpy from the fact that Ayden had left her to the floor.

    The next morning in Ayden's room was Azalea who was sitting on the huge bed, and Ayden who was trying so hard to dress her wound even if she had objected severally. She had to said it to his ears that she would prefer to do it herself and not go to the royal infirmary, which he insisted on helping her to do it at all cost. His body cringed at the sight of the huge wound mark that she had on her arm when she opened it, which was as a result of hanging her hand up for too long which tore open the wound more. He was so scared to even look at the wound with pain in her heart for her, that she just smiled at his behavior and took the pieces of cloth from him."Doesn't it hurt?" Ayden asked pitifully, as he watched her apply the herbal ointment on it. He had never had that kind of huge cane mark before."I am okay. I just need to go out of the city to get some herbs," she replied to him. She had not gotten the chance to be able to go and see Maude, as she had been too caught up with the af

    "Master I think some people might be following us again," Azalea alerted Ayden, who was walking side in side beside her. Walking out in the city together with her while talking and laughing, was sure something he really enjoyed doing. It was not so easy for them to check out the huge stacks of books, that were piled to the brim at the library to avoid total scattering, of all the books over from the top. They didn't know that Hendrix was also at the library, or even saw him follow behind them, because of the mixed scents of different people present around. After the not really successful trial of book search, they decided to go to the market where Azalea actually wanted to go and meet Maude. They had taken the route through the rowdy part of the market and bought snacks as they talked on about so many things. Azalea stopped talking after a short while, when she sensed that they were been trailed. "How is it that we have never enjoyed a peaceful day, walking out of the palace in pea

    The walk was a silent and moody one, with a maid who walked fast ahead of her master who was sauntering behind. The middle of his forehead was knitted to a frown, with his eyes looking downwards that was barely facing the direction he was going. Rather than being pissed off with her or what she has said, he was really bothered that she could be terribly mad at him. Azalea's brutal words to his ears had stung truthfully in his heart, that as much as he hated to admit its validity, it wasn't as great as hearing the words directly from her.She had wanted to treat his wound which wasn't such a big deal for her, as she just looked around for a substitute herb to use I stead. The young prince was still scared to his stillness of his entire body, which she had decided to act ignorant about and just grind the herbs she wanted to use. The instant that she had put some of the herbs on the surface of his wound, he shrieked like something bad had hit him as he struggled to pull his arm away f

    His face was so close to hers, that she could barely feel her breath anymore. Like her head and brain was waiting for something to happen, her eyes spontaneously closed tight as she felt his face too close to hers. His face was barely an inch in front of hers, staring at her pretty closed lashes that kept twitching in restlessness, when he suddenly diverted his mouth to her right ear."I think I would like to start training now without any further complaints. Since you have said I should learn defend myself, I shouldn't be lazy at all," he whispered. Immediately she heard that, her brain jolted out of its expectation illusion as her eye lashes parted open. The opening of her eyes to come in contact with his pretty smiling face, tugged a frown around her cheeks and face instantly.Even the look he had on his face looked so innocently clueless, that she was frustrated to her guts if he had done that intentionally. She rolled her eyes and just pushed him aside to walk to nowhere in par

    Azalea had quickly prepared Ayden for the day from preparing his bath water as soon as possible, which he had reluctantly stood up from the bed to take a warm bath with. Just as he was done applying some soothing oil around his body, Azalea had come behind him to bring his robe from where she had hung it. Even if he had exuded a lackadaisical and languid attitude, she struggled the way of his cloth around his arms to fit his body properly regardless of her small frame. She moved swiftly to his front to adjust every accessories and rumples on his cloth, as he watched her serious face from the elevated height of his eyes downward. It really looked like she was totally in for business. "Do I really have to go today? I mean we have not informed Hendrix about it, and those inflexible guards would certainly not let us into their house," Ayden tried to wriggle his way out of the situation. He definitely was not so ready that soon."I have sent a servant by master Zachary's name. She shoul

    The tension that permeated the air between Azalea and Ayden was palpable, that she thought in her heart what she could say, to alleviate it. It was hard for Ayden to get rid of the sadness he was feeling, even if Azalea wasn't the one who caused it. They were sad thoughts that really hurt. Just right when they got to the crossroads that could lead to the palace, Azalea sighted Hendrix walking closer to where they were, and quickly called out to him. It was really a relief to see someone, who could probably be able to get Ayden out of his current shell. "Master Hendrix!" Azalea called out to him, as he looked around to see if his ears were doing the tricks, "Over here!" She further directed. The moment Hendrix eyes diverted to the direction Ayden and Azalea were approaching from, a beautiful smile tugged on his cheeks in accordance to the emotion he was feeling. It was so elating to see Azalea healthy and radiant, like someone who hadn't gone through so much in the past few days.

    Dressed and robed around with an astounding peach dress that complemented her pale skin colour, her hips swayed left and right as she made her way to the chamber that was imprinted on her mind. For some reason, the route to his hallway looked unfamiliar to her, but her instincts worked her legs to the front of his doorstep. Without knocking, Eadlin's both hands pushed hardly against the sturdy door to barge in, which pounced her push back in fail, to indicate that the door was locked. Zachary who was just standing right by his door wondered what he had just seen, as he pulled open the bolt behind the door and opened it to see, who was rude enough to want to enter through his door without knocking.Zachary's mouth almost dropped open when he saw who was standing right at his door, other than whom he had thought it would be. Though it wasn't something so unexpected since she had come often before, but not after what Edla had told him about her, that he also confirmed too. "Hi. Brot

    He gently walked towards the hallway that led to the garden to see if she was probably there, but the place was empty and lonely just as they had left it. His heart began to feel unsettling, as he quickly made his way into every room in the palace that he knew she usually liked going to. "Check every nook and cranny of the palace for Azalea, right, now!" Ayden dispatched every servant and soldier around, as he walked back into their room looking so confused and stressed out. That was when his eyes caught the paper that was folded neatly, and placed under the oil bottle in the dresser in the room. He rushed to pick it as he opened it. It thus read; "Dear Ayden. I know you must have been alarmed by now about my disappearance, but do not be. I am sorry to leave you in this manner, but this is actually the best thing to do for now. Do not look for me too, because you will not be able to find me even if you try. My powers have gone out of hand, and I have finally figured out why. Seem

  • My Luna is a witch; Illegitimate prince   A painful twist

    The palace of many rooms and hallways was unbelievably quiet, with just servants and maids doing their best to clean every room in the large building. Everywhere was now more silent than ever, rather than the usual noises of the main family that once lived there happily. Everyone now had their lives to live.Zachary had left the palace together with his wife Armani and their son, after publishing his new book which had become best selling in a few weeks. Edla refused to go with Elliott when he came back one more time to see Ayden and Azalea, rejecting his offer to find a job for her in the nearest city which was many miles away. He told her that Eadlin had joined another pack as a warrior, and just spent her time training endlessly. Edla remained in and out the palace walls in hopes that one day,, she would still be able to capture the heart of Hendrix whom she still loved in her heart. Being well versed with the embroidery skills she learnt and spent her time doing during her

    For the king, she had robbed him of his mate and the real Luna of the kingdom, because of her own selfish gain. She also made their only child's life a miserable one, and tried to kill the true prince of the kingdom several times without number. And she had even given birth to the children he had loved with his entire life, for another man whom she disguised as her brother to the palace. With him again she conspired to put his life into danger and left his already thin body to decay, so that she could finally usurp the throne with him.

    Arturo was pacing his sword already in restless motion, in stark contrast to Azalea's as he traced roving loops with the point. He stepped forward, his sword swinging in a mock offense in an experimental probe into motion. He had put his dark magic power into the sword, and was ready to destroy the despicable little lady that was right in front of him. He hated so much that she had refused to die and always sat on his nerves, and that she was doing it till the very last moment. That was when he knew that she should not have underestimated her powers. However, he was ready to destroy her finally.Azalea launched aggressively straight into the attack as she filled her sword with her powers, left, right--she twisted away, jumped back, closed in for the attack again taking him off balance. The last time that she had hesitated to finish up everything with the fight, Ayden's sudden attack from Eadlin had distracted and almost caused both of them death.The werewizard swung his sword in a

    Azalea was lying on the cold and bare floor hopelessly, weak and out of breath, with no assurance of surviving till the next day. Ayden had not even stirred ever since they had been locked up in the room, and was just motionless on the floor with also no one to tend to the wound he got from Eadlin's stab. If he was dead or alive she knew not, and her wrenched heart could also not take anymore pains or could her eyes shed anymore tears. The floors of the room were beginning to quake more violently, of the self-destruct effects it was having on itself. It was a glaring fact that the situation was just too despairing to do anything. If a miracle would occur by any chance at that moment, then she would first have to get out of the prison she was locked in unscathed. If there was another one that was willing to follow, she would also need the strength to escape together with Ayden. If she was going to escape safely with him, he needed to be alive and strong enough to migrate, for h

    Edla and Zachary had remained restless all day while going in and out of his room, searching for clues that could help them discover where Azalea and Ayden could be. It was a tricky one because there were now twice as many soldiers in the palace, but they could now walk around freely however they liked. No one was talking about their mother and if she was okay, and they had no idea if the king was still even alive. The entire family had become a royal mess that the gossip about it could never be heard outside the palace if they all wanted to keep their heads. Eadlin was the only one allowed to see her mother and see her recuperation progress, while Elliott had run away from the palace the night the fight escalated with Azalea, and he saw his mother to the ground. Though he still felt the love he had for her as a son, she had ruined him too much for him to watch her stand back on her feet. He went back to search for Gianna at the inn where her parents owned, but they told him t

    "We are all doomed now!! There is certainly no way out of this. There is no way!" Edla panicked, yelled and screamed, as she paced from end to end in Zachary's room. She had stood by the nearest room with a window to watch what had happened during the fight, but fled after the buildings collapsed for the second time. The next event that followed after the entire fight and commotion, was Arturo that now sat on the throne as the new king to reign. That same day, he summoned everyone in the city and called them to the palace, in which his new men informed all of them of the new development. It became the words amongst them that the wicked queen had been usurped, while their savior whom she also manipulated initially had come to save them from their misery. Everything had turned on Etheldreda to Arturo's full exploit. To make everything seem plausible, he started by banning the restriction orders and then fixed the reduction in tax payments. Grains were massively shared too among

    "Azalea took the entire afternoon to rest by the hut and to regain her strength, while Ayden sharpened the sword that they found in a corner which was insinuated to have been left by Armani. She had a strong affirmation in her heart that no matter where Armani was, she would be safe and fine in everything that she did. They had nothing left to eat from their bag, and just had to wait till nightfall before they returned back to the palace. It was definitely where they had to start the fight from, and choosing the night was the best time to attack.There was definitely no time to waste time. Using her powers to become invisible through air, both Ayden and Azalea were able to get near the palace wall. And through the hidden tunnel which was still safely untouched, they both made their way into the tunnel as they crawled gently. As soon as they continued to get near to the other end of the tunnel in the garden, Azalea continued to sense some kind of ambience around but she could not

    "Go and take any clothes that would suit you well from my wardrobe, and remain here till I come back. Do not open the door to anyone even if they knock!" She instructed, and hurriedly put on the clothes the girl was wearing initially, ignoring whatever sweat and dirt that might have gotten on it. The royal family which now consisted of Etheldreda, Arturo, and Elliott would be at the royal dining having dinner at that time. It was around that time too that the soldiers changed shifts and received dinner, so things would definitely be rowdy around without much attention paid to everyone passing by. But still, she had to make sure not to get caught, because she had no idea what her mother would do to her for disobeying the rules. With tension and some sought of contrition in her heart, she hoped so much in her heart never to run into anyone who would figure her out, even with her changed appearance.
