LESLEY

Even though he tried to appear brave, I noticed he was shaking as he said those words.

I let out a very loud and deafening laughter one more time.

“I am not going to deny that I am the devil” I said smiling. “But like I said, there is still a human part of me which still has a heart, and not just any heart – a heart of compassion” I said pretending to show compassion on my face.

“You have six minutes to make your choice, and then I would make my own choice” I said going to sit somewhere a bit far away from him.

‘Make your choice on time old man, so I can make my own choice. So that I can make my own choice on how to kill you’.

I looked at his face, he looked a bit thoughtful. It looked like he was considering the option I had given him. I smiled inwardly.

I gradually stood up and went to stand close to him.

“You are yet to make your choice old man” I said as I stood close to him. I clicked my tongue.

“Your time is gradually running out, if I were you I would not miss out on thi

    RALIAMy life had become just like a movie, my life no longer had any meaning.I had started to believe that my life is a curse, I was cursed right from birth.Maybe I was meant to be alone, I do not deserve to be loved by anybody.I had lost everything and everybody, every single person who had tried to love me ended up being taken away from me.First it was Cheyenne, I was ta canken away from her without consent, I was forced to leave her behind.I started to imagine her beautiful face in my mind’s eye, her smiles, her hugs and all the comforting words she used to say to me.

    LESLEYThe thoughts of Ralia never left my mind.Even as I sat in the middle of all these beautiful women that were touching me all over my body, it was only thoughts of Ralia that occupied my mind.I was not feeling any of their touches one bit. In fact I was feeling irritated with their touches.One of them crawled up to me and tried to take off my robe.I felt even more irritated and held her hand.“Stop!” I suddenly saidShe looked at my face and asked.“What is wrong Lord Lesley?”“Yes, what is wrong?” They all asked simultaneously.“Nothing” I said with my cold voice. “I just want all of you to stop” I said standing up and pulling my robe back up.“All of you should leave, I am done with you”.“But why, we are just about to start” one of them stood up touching my chest.I held her two hands. “Get your hands off me” I said pushing her away.“But Lord Lesley we just……” One of them started to say and tried to touch me.“I said all of you should leave” I thundered and they all scamp

    RALIAThat night, I saw Maggi in my dream, she was standing by my bedside and watching me. She did not look angry, that means she was not angry. If she was she would have shown on her face.But the look on her face was not the look of anger.sge had the look of compassion, tenderness and the look of pity on her face.She stretched her hand and tried to touch me before I woke up.It was so strange that I found myself lying on the bed when I woke, I remembered I had fallen asleep on the ground while crying.How strange. I thought.I got up early to get prepared, I was going to the woods to pick up the fruits that I would sell the next day.After I finished picking the fruits today, I decided to play my make – believe game of imaginations.I deliberately let the wind pick up my scarf and blew it away.I quickly ran after it and went to pick it.I bent down and picked it up, then started raising my head slowly.

    RALIAThe next day was even more tiring, I had gone to the market to sell fruit, it had started to feel like a part of me now. I had gotten used to going to the woods to pick fruits, I had gotten used to coming to the market to sell fruits.This might seem strange, but lately I had had this awkward feeling of being watched, even as I sat in the market selling the fruits, I still had this awkward feeling that someone was watching me.But the surprising thing was that instead of freaking out at the thought of the fact that someone or something was watching me, it made me feel secure, it made me feel safe, it made me feel a sense of security. The type I only ever felt whenever I was in he arms of my Lesley.But there was no way that he would be here, so I brushed it off.I choose to get rid of the thoughts and focus on selling my fruits.That day I had very good sales. Before mid day I had sold off all the fruits and prepared to go home.I could not bring my horse with me to the marked s

The. I remembered I had noticed these flowers in Lesley’s garden.Was my mind playing tricks with me? I was sure I did not plant those flowers so how did they get here.“This is strange” I said aloudIn fact lots of strange things had been h

    RALIA“Would I also be able to talk to her” I asked my hand still placed on my heart.“Of course, you can communicate your thoughts to them, although they would not be able to talk to you, but they would be able to hear you. And they would know you love them” he continued.“But when I saw Maggi in my dream, she would not let me come with her. She said we no longer belonged together”.“That is also true, it is a sad thing that you no longer belong together, she belongs to a different world now. But that does not mean that she does not love you anymore. She still loves you very much”.“My Maggi” I suddenly broke into tears again and he tried to comfort me.He had walked me home that day and I had gone straight to bed because I did not feel like doing any other thing that day.I did not even bother to water my plants, I just went straight to bed hoping I would see Maggi in my dreams.LESLEYI woke up the next morning and glance at the woman sleeping beside me.She was one of the women th

    RALIAMy heart almost jumped out of my mouth when my eyes came in contact with that face, that was the last face I expected to see.My heart beat erratically as I looked into those grey eyes and they stared right back at me.“Lesley” I managed to say hoping that it was not my mind playing games with me once again.He stretched out his hands towards me.I looked on with wide eyes not quite sure of what to do.After much deliberation, I reluctantly stretched my hand towards him and he took my hand and lifted me up to stand face to face with him.I kept staring into his eyes, it still felt like a dream to me, maybe I was dreaming again, or maybe it was my imagination that was playing with me again.“Come home with me Ralia” he finally said.I suddenly became light – headed and I stepped back a little almost falling down.He held me by the waist and made me stand upright.“Come home with me Ralia” he said to me again.I stared at him with my eyes wide open, I wondered if I heard him corre

    LESLEYI was well aware of what Ralia was trying to warn me about, u had earlier gotten the information about the plans they had for me. I laughed it off because it was funny, it was funny because I was prepared for them. After my last experience I had been walking on a technology, although I was not sure initially if it was going to work. But after putting much effort into it I was able to discover that my efforts payed anyways. They had just wanted their time by putting those silver there because I had made weapons to protect me from them. I had weapons that would kill them easier. It did not take long for me and my men to locate their cave, my blood boiled even more when I saw the kind of scary place they had subjected my wife to staying in for days. I would not forgive them for putting her through all of that. I tore away the things that were used as cover in front of the cave with my claws and I and my men matched in. On getting in there I met them punishing one of the

    RALIA"Ralia is it that your pregnancy has so affected your brain that you do not know the meaning of climb out?" I turned sharply to look at her. "How did you know my name?" I whispered. "Do you want to start wasting my time right now by asking unnecessary questions? What part of climb out do you no understand? It looks like you really want to be cut open, maybe I would start with your stomach" I obeyed her and started climbing out till I was outside in the open. She climbed out also and tool my hand and started pulling me by the arm. "Where are you taking me?" I asked again but this time I did not get any answers from her. Instead she kept dragging me along till we got to a particular part of the woods, far from the cave. She stopped and turned to face me. "Run" she slowly said. "What?" I asked not believing her words. "Is run also a hard word for you to understand now Ralia?" I turned to look at her again, why was she calling my name as if she knew me? And

    RALIAI believed that days would have passed since I was here, even though I could not see the time. I rejected alm the food that they had given me to eat, I even spat on the face of one of them who had come to threaten me. They released me from the chains occasionally to stretch my body out. I heard gentle footsteps approaching me in the room where I was tied, I was blindfolded so I could not see who it was. The footsteps got closer and for some reasons I could feel a familiar presence around me, I was sure it was not that of Lesley. The blindfold was slowly pulled down from my face and I looked up to see who it was. Someone was standing right in front of me with a plate of food. But I could not ascertain who it was since they had a blindfold on, but I was sure it was a woman. "For how long do you intend to starve yourself?" She asked with a deep feminine voice. I kept quiet and maintained a straight face. "Do you plan on answering me" she grabbed my jaw and raised m

    Everything still felt like a dream to me, I could not believe all of these were actually happening. But in everything, I prayed that Lesley would not come here. Coming here would be really bad for him and I would not ba able to take it if he got hurt. Since it was dark inside the cave, it was difficult to tell what time it was or how the day went by. I just sat there in pains with the chains that has been used to bind mw to the chair. I looked up when I heard footsteps, it was the same betrayal who had helped the enemies take me. "Why would you this?" I asked in tears. "I thought you were loyal to Lesley". "Loyal?" He spat. "Do you know how long I had mapped out my plans to be able to penetrate Lesley's household and gain his trust? So you know how fulfilled I am to see all my plans playing out right in front of me?" "What do you mean?" "You would never understand when your life is like that of a Disney princess. But I would give you an insight. Do you know the amount

    LESLEYIt was almost like I was running mad, I could not believe my ears. My Ralia was gone? I punched the wall severally, all my anger had been directed back at myself, why did I not go with her? Ho could I have been that careless to send her out alone? My heart beat increased with every passing second, I wanted to leave immediately, to go after the bastards that had taken my woman. But my right hand man had insisted we stayed and made some proper planning before going after them to avoid making a grave mistake that could cost someone's like. I was even more agitated because I was told they had help from inside, I could not believe that the same person I had put in charge of her safety was the same person that was used to take her away from me. How could I have been so careless? Why did I let her go alone when I knew that I had a traitor among my men? "It's all my fault" I screamed as I punched the wall once again, causing a burning sensation in my knuckles. "I was not c

    LESLEYI rushed to the door and opened it only to find one of the men that I had sent out with Ralia, he had a kind of look on his face that I could not explain, but the look only meant one thing, that something had happened. And it was not whatever it was that had happened was not a nice thing at all. "Where is Ralia?" I asked immediately. I knew at once that something was wrong when he did not answer immediately, had she put to birth in the woods? But I knew that was not the the case with the look on his face. "Where is Ralia?" I asked again, this time with more urgency. "Ralia has been kidnapped!" The voice echoed over and over again in my head even though I did not want to believe it at all. "What do you mean by Ralia has been kidnapped?" I asked in a more mean manner. "She was taken in the woods by a group of armed werewolves, we tried to fight them, but they had help from inside". "What do you mean?" I asked raising an eyebrow. By this time, I was already

    RALIA"What do you think?" Amelia asked showing me a beautiful flower growing somewhere in the woods. "It's beautiful" I said absent mindedly. "You see not be enjoying yourself" you said looking closely at me. "We can go home if you like". "I don't want to go home till I am done with my walk" I said with a straight face. I remembered some months back I had equally come out to take a walk without Lesley. Only that this time around, other than missing him I had other feelings, like the pit feelings I had in my stomach, and the pit kept increasing with every step I too. "Then you should be even more active and responsive, stop acting like you are missing your husband already" "I do miss him though" I tried to smile. "But I'm here" she took my hand, and tried her best to make me more alive and I really appreciated her effort, but it was just no working.y mood kept going from bad to worst with every step. We got to a point in the woods, and I stopped to take a look at

    RALIAI was awoken by the rays of sunlight that shine into my room that morning, probably one of those mornings that I always woke up late. I stretched my hand and reached out to Lesley's side of the bed but it was completely empty. I opened my eyes fully only to find myself alone in the room. I guessed he must have gone out for his numerous business meetings. A few more months had passed and there had not been any cause of unrest, I was probably really the one overthinking things are that time. Even though I was yet to get over that feeling of being in danger, I was convinced that there was no danger after all. And we had been living our normal lives as usual. It was just few weeks to my delivery date and I was feeling even more uncomfortable with the pregnancy, I could not just wait to put to bed, I could not wait to see what my child would look, I could not wait to carry my child in my arms. It would be one of the best feelings I had ever encountered. The doctor had advi

    LESLEYI had no idea why I felt so worried as I saw my wife in that mood, I did not know if to regret letting her handle the sword. But in a way she was right, she needed to learn how to fight and defend herself against any external force. Because even though I had assured that there was no need to be worried, I still felt like something was about to happen. Battle was looming and it was even more confusing because I did not have any lead as to where the battle was coming from or how it would even happen. But one thing was sure, I had vowed to protect my Ralia with my life. I was going to tighten the security around the house for now because I did not for once believe the rogue werewolf was working alone. He must have had other accomplices who probably still be lurking around and waiting for the right time to strike. But what was even more bothersome to me was that I might have an eternal force against me in my own house. And it was even more difficult fishing out the particular per
