Harsh wind brushed against Rose’s pink cheeks. She had rode a horse before. But this was much more dangerous than any rides she had ever been in!

She wasn’t joking when she described a ride with Mona’s horse was equivalent to courting death!

Mona didn’t care if there was a tree in front of them and make her turn as sharply as possible that made Rose forgot they had even rode a horse. The horse continued to gallop as though they were running after demons from behind them even though they weren’t!

“Mo-Mona!” Shouted Rose on top of her tongue. “I think you could tone down your ride a little!”

“What?!” Mona shouted as she couldn’t hear Rose’s voice. “You want me to slow down?! Sorry but I can’t! Remember that we don’t have much of a time. Our first priority is your sister and Dominic!”

“Yes I know that!” But now she feared before she could ever save Dominic from death, she would be the first meeting death herself.

“Just hold on a little! We are almost there!!” Mona shouted even louder.

    Yellow lights filled the path. Tall buildings covered her left and right. The people all around her dressed moderately. They looked nothing different than any other cities one will find when they visit in Essex.It had the same layout, except how most of them seemed to be more advanced whether it was by their style of clothing, the objects they held, or their aura. Mona held her hand, calling for her attention, “Don’t get overwhelmed, remember? If you do get overwhelmed, you would forget where you are and lost yourself in this amount of people.” Roses sighed and nodded. She quickly pulled herself together and walked beside Mona. “Where are we going first? The woman whose name is Barlene, do you think you will know where she is?” Rose asked the question at once but mona didn’t mind. She smiled, “Let’s see. Out of everyone that I know, in fact, Barlene is the only person who had sent me letters. She checked up on me each month, asking if I am alright and don’t worry about the situat

Quote: “When you’re alive you wish to die but when you’re dead you wish to live,”— Akhazan. ******************** All that Rose wanted was a chance to protect herself, a chance where she could protect Dominic and her own self. But it seemed to be impossible now after seeing that she couldn’t use her magic. Barlene smiled and patted her back, “But you know I do have a way that would help you from being captive by your magic so you can use another source of power without using your magic!” Rose’s eyes widened and sparkles of happiness filled her eyes. She didn’t believe what she heard and felt as though her hope had been lifted up by Barlene’s words. “You do?” Rose eagerly questioned. “Yes, it’s not a method known but I heard that there are indeed sorcerers who couldn’t use their magic. Thus why they learned of another method of using magic which is by borrowing magic.” “That’s great, I never thought of that option,” p

    The man’s eyes was purplish as he looked at her. His silver hair threaded down appeared like a doll. He had a gentle smiling face but knowing what person he was put Rose on an immediate guard. Upon hearing Josephine’s name, her eyes narrowed down sharply. She glared at the man, “What do you know about my sister?” She took a pause as she asked, “Did you take her away?!”Rose could feel the tension raising around her as the people who had guarded his carriage immediately snapped their eyes toward her, displeased that she had raised her voice to the master. But to Rose’s eyes currently he appeared no different than the kidnappers who had took her and her sister away years ago. Mona also looked at the Master beside Rose, realizing that the master looked at her once as though he knew immediately who she was despite her being disguised enough for Barlene not to notice her at first. The master turned away back at Rose as he spoke, “Enter the carriage. If it is your sister who you are worr

    The master couldn’t believe the stubbornness of Isaac. They both knew that Isaac hadn’t purely took his actions because he wanted all sorcerers to live equally. The master knew that all Isaac wanted was a praise which he did gave. But as times goes on, Isaac became more greedy, resulting for him to take crazier actions. The master stepped away as he closed his eyes, saying, ‘Maybe it is the time for me to punish you,’ he paused and added, ‘I cannot forgive what you did or allow you to hurt more innocent people.’ Isaac was shocked to see there was no more kindness from the master’s eyes. The same man who had saved him from his damned life, the man he admired, and the man he would die for at any given moment, didn’t seem to need him anymore. Isaac shook his head, ‘I can fix this,’ he insisted. ‘I am not wrong. You just have not understand my view.’‘What view is there for me to understand if you kill Josephine?’ The master shook his head as he had gotten tired of Isaac’s explanation

    The master was the first to step out before he offer to Rose to get down as she was still inside the carriage. Rose broke her gaze from the mansion and stepped down, rolling him. From behind she noticed that his hair might appeared white to some people but she was certain she didn’t see it wrong and that it was indeed a silver colored strands “Are you disappointed?” Chuckled the master after seeing her eyes that couldn’t tear away itself from his house. “I’m sorry what?” She asked as she couldn’t understand his question. “My mansion isn’t the biggest. Of course that is if you compared to the other mansions you saw back in your place. There hadn’t been any left land for us to build house and I’m glad to give more space for my people instead.”Rose quickly raised her hand and shake them, “No no, of course not. I was not comparing your house to anyone… I was just surprised that you have colored your house black.”The master turned his head to his mansion that was almost completely pi

    Dominic’s knuckles had turned red. His heart felt an indescribable worry when he had knocked on the door but heard no response coming from Rose. He couldn’t believe the keen sense of smell that he always had failed him too when he tried to locate her by scent. He tugged her by her wrist, pulling her body to his embrace. A soft sigh escaped from his lips, one that was filled with worry and concern. “I’m sorry,” whispered Rose. She could feel his loud heartbeat upon her face that rested on his chest. She could tell he was so worried that he almost lost himself in the fear of losing her. Dominic pulled away and shook his head, “No, I didn’t want you to apologize to me. I was only worried that when I am not with you.. especially in Essex. Back in Agios I still could breathe a little, because I know you will be there with the others save and sound. But in Essex where everyone hates us, I always worry that one day you will get hurt.” Rose gently caressed her hand, bringing it up and do

    The next afternoon, Rose went back to the city of the sorcerer along with Mona. Before they arrived, Rose carefully studied Mona’s face. The last thing she wanted to happen was for Mona to feel burdened to come with her. She said, “Are you sure you want to go back here?” “You are worried about me getting the punishment aren’t you?” Mona questioned, giving her a smile. “Don’t worry I came with the mind of accepting whatever punishment that the Master wanted to give me. With the years that passed, I am also sure that his anger toward me have lessened now. If not, he wouldn’t have let me go yesterday.” Rose was also glad that the Master turned out to be a person with a kind heart. He didn’t at once put a heavy punishment on Mona, much to their relief. She wondered if he knew about what happened to the King and Queen of Essex as well.. Meanwhile as Rose entered the city of the sorcerer, Dominic sat down at the imperial castle. In front of him was his younger brother Shawn who had mad

    Isaac appeared from behind them. He didn’t allow his cloak to slip from his face and Dominic knew it wasn’t because he was embarrassed of his own face. But when Isaac’s hand extended forward he could see the burning wounds all over his forearms.“Mr. Dominic,” Isaac called up, “I don’t know you much personally but I always have hated you since our first meeting back in the forest.” Dominic shrugged his shoulders, “I don’t know you either but I am positive that I wouldn’t hesitate to slice you across the neck now.” Isaac’s smile had fallen as he looked at the arrogant werewolf, “You don’t know anything do you?” He chuckled as the werewolf wasn’t even aware of the dark creatures that hugged him so closely as though they had became one with him. Starvos narrowed his eyes, feeling that the sudden turn of event becoming dangerous for Dominic. “What do you want then brother?” Shawn was the one to speak while looking at Dominic. “If you really knew from the beginning that this is merely

    The guests had filled the entrance of the castle faster than how a fire would spread. Colors filled the white walls as not a single place inside was missed from being decorated. Some of the guests gladly greeted Dominic and his wife, Rose. They had acknowledge her soon and even called Dominic “duke”. As soon after the incident, Dominic ruled out is father’s death and take over the duchy, being the new ruler of his fief. “Congratulation on your marriage, I apologize for being late with my words of happiness, Duke Dominic,” said one of the guest, Mr. Hanggs. “It’s nice to see you too, madam Rose.”“Pleasure to meet you,” Rose greeted the man’s words back. “How is the land now to you, Mr. Hanggs?” Dominic asked the wise man who seemed to be quiet. “It does feel different now. I gradually found people who could suddenly fill empty barrel with water as miracle instead of fearing them. I’m also glad to see how wise our King is as he had rooted off all the corrupted royals.

    The ground shook and the impact of the explosion launched both Dominic and Rose backward. When Rose couldn’t hold him tighter anymore, she almost slipped from his back and fell. Seeing that, Dominic changed to his human form, capturing her body even though he was on air and shielded her in a tight hug as they roll down across the cold floor with a harsh thud. Both Shawn and Gallahan was thrown backward. They tried to nail their feet on the floor to no avail as the extreme explosion would had destroyed the entire land if not because of the shield that Gallahan had perfected for years from his life. The entire world turn black for a moment and by the time it turn brighter again, Shawn saw Gallahan who had sprawled across the floor and Balbazor who had been reduced into a scorched human corpse. Even after that however, Balbazor didn’t stop moving. He crawled with his body like a snake, disregarding how his fingers had been turned into ash. No one could ever see his features anymore, o

    Gallahan faced off Balbazor alone. It was a crazy feat to not even die after receiving the harmful attack that was made to eradicate humans and Gallahan’s performance so far have shocked everyone including Balbazor himself. “You are agile,” commented Balbazor. “But if this tentacles weren’t around me, I would have destroyed you in seconds by now.” “Making excuses now? When you killed my family with your curse, you were extremely silent. I’ll put that mouth of yours to rest too,” Gallahan quirked a smirked, urging anger and fuming Balbazor. The ancient demon opened his mouth again but this time, Gallahan had a smarter option. Rather than shielding himself, he rushed forward. Balbazor smiled, thinking how foolish this human is for coming on to him face to face but he was startled as he saw Gallahan had dodged his previous explosion attack. This time, Gallahan murmured a spell and a sharp blue light appeared from his hand which went straight directly to Balbazor’s thick neck. The an

    “Brother, are we not related?” Young Shawn’s voice echoed against his ears. Dominic looked down at the child that had overheard the conversation of the adult. Gently he wrapped his fingers around his brother’s little ones and gave him a gentle smile, “Does it matter? Nothing will change even if we aren’t related, you will always be my brother.”Back to the present, Dominic found himself yelling at Shawn’s name as Balbazor had thrown a powerful magic at them. Rose’s eyes snapped open, showing the glistening green eyes of her had changed into purple. At the same time she uttered her spell, the wall broke. Dominic took no chance. He jumped from the staircase, landing down his two feet as a wolf and ran after Shawn. Surprisingly, Gallahan had stood in front of Shawn, shielding them both from the explosion. “I told you to stay away child!” Gallahan yelled to Rose who had rebuilt the wall.“I can help you ease the miasma,” she said, convincing the man only to see him frowning in disagre

    When Dominic and Rose arrived at the foot of the door, they found that the glow of purple light had stopped and was quickly greeted by the roar of a monster. “It’s Balbazor, the ancient demon,” Rose explained, jumping down from his body. Dominic shook off his fur and turned into his human form, standing right beside her fully clothed. Although there are other pressing matter she couldn’t help and pointed out, “You can be clothed now?” “Hm?” Dominic looked down on himself, “Right I got taught by the other werewolves how to do that the last time we met.” Rose smiled, thinking how surely the relationship between him and his father had evolved into something closer where they could teach and talk to each other eye to eye. Seeing the progress, she felt moved. “Well what is with this Balbazor?” Dominic pushed the door open for her, they both entering the mansion only to feel the ground beneath them shaking. “He is the ancient demon who had formed contract with the first sorceress.

    Gallahan wasn’t daunted by the fact that Balbazor was more than fifth fold of him, looking even bigger and monstrous. Shawn could feel that demon had no pity or hesitation on him, willingly killing anyone who stood on his way. For a moment Shawn questioned how he could ever kill this monstrous being in front of him, finding it abhorrent that his entire instinct yelled that killing it would be close to impossible. Even coming near the monster he could feel the brimming heat that would burn his skin. “Shawn,” Gallahan called his attention to make sure the younger man wouldn’t feel daunted and eaten alive by his own fear. Shawn then watched Gallahan who in comparison seemed to be eagerly waiting for this chance to come his hand. It was something he had been waiting for a long time… finally he could avenge the death of his family who all ended due this demon’s twisted curse! “I want to kill you, you won’t even believe how much I have been looking forward to this day. My heart is beati

    Dominic’s silver eyes also noticed the swirl of purple glow from the black mansion and turned his head again to the view before him. “What did you and the Master talked about?” Inquired Dominic while they run through the forest. “I told him that I will do something about the demon inside Isaac if he could help me end my curse but then he surprised me by saying that he doesn’t need help.” Rose responded. “I trust him.” “I do think he is someone who wouldn’t hurt his fellow sorcerer, you weren’t wrong in trusting him,” Dominic encouraged her. “But that sound too good to be true. He always ask people for payment if he help them.” “He did ask for something, he said to continue fooling my demon, Babylion,” uttered Rose. “I asked him why and he told me so he could use Babylion to kill that ancient demon in response.”“So this entire charade is because of him.” Dominic narrowed his eyes. They can’t seem to trust the Master completely, that man would do anything if it means to fulfil his

    Shawn’s eyebrows furrowed as he saw a bright purple glow appearing from the room where the master and Isaac had fought in. As the master’s hand had been touched, Isaac had fulfilled his promise to erase the curse that plagued the Master. This should have call for a celebration regardless of the Master’s wish of never leaving the cave. But by fulfilling Isaac’s promise, the demon in him finally demanded for his reward and that reward was… for him to manifest into the world inside his body!When something suddenly clicked in his mind, Shawn bubbled out of anger.“Damn it! Damn it!” Shawn yelled, finally realizing the big mistake that he made by trusting that damn sorcerer king! He rushed out of the room, questioning everything that the sorcerer had done. He first of told him to imbue his magic on the crystal ball as if doing that would help. He said that by calming Isaac, he could convince him to drive out the demon inside. He also claimed that he wouldn’t kill Isaac thus why he had

    Rose could feel the dark magic that entered her skin, crawling in such a disgusting way that she wanted to hurl but she couldn’t. There was something that was stopping her from moving and she couldn’t understand it as it felt slightly different when compared to the demonic magic that he uses on her. “Rose, make my life more colorful, won’t you?” Whispered Babylion. “Now go and betray your beloved. I want to see his face twisting in pain. From your memories, he seemed to the most fun to mess with.” Rose wanted to say no, she wanted to yell and disagree with Babylion’s words but she couldn’t move. She then had the sudden idea to play by what Babylion wanted and nodded her head slowly, agreeing that she would betray Dominic while her eyes turning unfocused, looking exactly similar as to someone who had just been bewitched.“Good, now play with me.” Back to the present, Rose run through her thins hands between her hair and pushed the golden locks to the back of her head, she sighed hea
