A knock on the door makes me swing around to look at the visitor. I sigh in relief as I see a male figure standing there.
"Were you trying to escape a ghost" he laughs entering.
"Something worse" I say shaking my head.
"How are you feeling Mrs. Fiona" Argon questions examining mom.
"Definitely better than before, dear" mom smiles
"Are you nauseous? Pain in the head or anywhere?" he questions again taking out mom's medical and filling in some details.
"Nope. Perfect" mom says.
He nods and turns to me "What about you?"
"Me?" I question back.
"I asked you to be careful with your leg and you keep going around like a nut" he locks him muscular arms and confronts me.
I giggle embarrassed "My leg isn't so worse. I can sit and stand on the floor" I smile recalling the previous night "I can even walk without the crutch" I brag unaware if I could actually do it.
"Love be careful" m
"Are you serious, Daisy?" I question annoyed."Its Queen, child""Why? Why should we listen to you? You're just a mere person right now" I say still erect with the crutch."Laura, you definitely don't want to test me" she says and instantly the scar on my left palm hurts."You can control me too?" I ask wide eyed."I hope you don't make me repeat myself" she exhales pretending to be exhausted "You can leave now""Let's go, Laura" mom speaks finally standing up.I look at Nella who has a devastated expression on her face and leave the room without a glance at Daisy."Mom. Why didn't you stand for us there?" I ask as we enter mom's room."Love, I'm sure you noticed her attitude. If I had sided with you she would burst in fits of anger and do something more annoying" mom explains but I ignore her explanation."Bye mom. I need some rest" I say and turn to leave as Argon approaches the door.
"Argon, I've got to meet the princess. See you later" I say as we finish eating. "Sure, I have to check on dad too" he replies. "By the way, what did you master in?" I ask standing up. "Brain" "You're a neurologist?" I exclaim amazed. He laughs and falls back in his chair "Yes, I did love" "Wow, doc. Such an impressive cub" I laugh and he stands up too. "See you Laura" he says and turns to leave. "Bye Argon" I reply and walk towards the Nella's room. "Mr. White can I meet the princess?" I ask as I approach his table. "Sure Laura. She's in her room but be mindful she isn't in her best condition" he precautions me and opens the door. I nod as I could feel her. "Nella, are you alright?" I ask as I enter the room. "Never worse" she sighs sitting near the window. This was the first time I visited her room and it was quite the princess room. Everything
“This is should be the right way” speaks Nella as we enter a narrow street downtown. The sun was already down and the street lights flickered often making the street more creepy.“I pray so” I whisper, this is the second street we’re entering hoping to arrive at Thaddeus (the previous alphas mansion)“God, this dress is so comfortable” She speaks again as she jumps over a pit “I see why girls prefer jeans and tops over gowns” she laugh. Nella wore a grey jean and denim top as she didn’t want to walk on the road with a large gown.“Very true” I laugh along “You sure Daisy will not look around for you?” I ask“She’s busy with Fiona and No, she wouldn’t care as she’s overconfident on her plans” she replies.“I think I agree” I reply following her into a crooked entrance. There wasn’t a single person the entire
“Where have you too been?” Daisy questions as we enter the palace.“Why should we report back to you?” I ask annoyed walking towards the stairs.“I'm your Queen” she exclaims again.I pause and turn around to face her “You’re not my Queen, Daisy. And stop being so full of yourself” I tell her and rush to my room. Nella stood there patiently.‘Why is she so annoying, argh' I ask myself loud as I bang the door behind me.“Oh, Hey” I hear a voice from the balcony and immediately walk towards I to look at the person.“What are you doing here?” I question crossing my arms.“I couldn’t find you around here and your mom let me wait for you here” he says“Argon, how long have you been waiting?” I ask as I take off my shoes.“Around two hours” he calculates.“Its past the witching
“Laura, we’ll attack tonight. Thaddeus will bring Cassius and Eagle to the palace and we can do it” Nella whispers to me as we pass through each other in the eating quarters.“Alright. I’ll be ready” I tell her and walk to the kitchen to grab my food.“Hey, mom” I great as I sit to the right of mom.“Hey, baby. Did you sleep well?” mom questions me and I nod“How are you feeling now?” I ask her.“Much better love” she replies eating the last roll on her plate “Where were you last night?” she questions“I was just strolling through the streets” I smile focusing on my plate.“Did you meet Argon? He wanted to talk to you” mom says“Oh, yes yes. I met him last night” I say recalling that mom was tge one who let him wait in my room.“Alright love. See you later” mom stands up.
Numbness concurs my entirely. I move my fingers first and then slowly moved my legs. It felt good, my body was glad to move. I hear someone speak“Is she alright, Marshall ?” a sweet female voice asked.“Yes but we can only be certain when she regains consciousness” a horse voice replied.“And what about Fiona?” she questioned again.“Let's talk about it outside” I feel the voice fade away.Finally I open my eyes and let the sun rays reach my eyes from the balcony.‘What is this place?’ I question sitting up, looking around the vacant large room.‘Is it a hospital?’ I question myself unsure ‘It’s too grand for a nursing home' I answer my own question.In a second the door swings open and a female in a white floral gown walks in“Laura, Thank heavens your awake darling” she sighs holding his chest; she w
“Laura, wait” I hear Daisy call out as I leave the room. “Yes?” I turn around and ask “Come with me. I’ll tell you the truth” she says and pulls me by my wrist behind her. “Thanks Doctor” I say looking back at him while trying to keep up with Daisy. “Laura, love. Sit down” she says as we enter a large room. I obey and sit on the cushion. “Are you from earth?” I ask finally “No Laura. I’m the queen here” she says “Why are you my aunt then? And who is the woman you told as my mother” I ask “Your mom and I have been the best of friends and just like you, your mom travelled here earlier. We’ve been great friends since then” she says “When can I return?” I ask “There something you need to know before that” she says in a soft tone. “What is it?” I ask curious “You can’t trust anyone here. Especially Nella” “Why? Don’t you both belong to this place?” I question ba
“Laura, have you got everything ready?” Daisy asks grabbing my attention.“Yes, I have” I say looking blank at her“Did something happen, love?” she questions me concerned‘Should I tell her about the voice in my dream?’ I think ‘No, definitely not' my brain responds‘But we need to tell someone so we can figure it out' my heart replies‘But I don’t think that person is her' my gut speaks up.“Its nothing Daisy. Let’s go” I say and hold the door open for her.“I hope everything will go well” she whispers smiling at me.“It will Daisy” I reply. She stares at me for a second and I wonder what did I do wrong. “It will, Queen” I say again and she smiles“Stay here, Laura” she says and walks out of the door while I remain back stage. She approaches the podium and gets onto it adjusting the
