Dominic pulled away as he traced his finger over his lips after it was pressed to hers. He shook his head and whispered out slowly, “You lied.”

It was difficult to know if Dominic had uttered those words from anger or sadness. It was also hard to tell what feeling that had took over him the most. He stared blankly at Rose as she had a firm look on her face even after seeing how easy he was ruined by her words.

“Rose. You can leave me but not the others. It’s too cruel for you to let them forget about you,” Dominic whispered out in regret. “And I’m sorry for ruining your life.”

“You don’t have to be sorry and you don’t have to repay me in any way by breaking my curse. We should simply part ways here,” Rose walked away from him but stopped when she heard his daring words.

“But I cannot part ways with you,” Dominic looked into her eyes firmer than any metal in the world. “You can hate me but don’t leave me. If it is something about me then I can change myself—“ Dominic hadn’t only aske

    Starvos frowned at the odd boy. He always felt unsettled with Shawn, finding the young man was not dangerous but rather.. he was unstable. It felt as though he could flip at any second, being the scariest person but then his smile shows that he was the happiest person on earth now. The quick turn of Shawn’s emotion wasn’t much to Starvos’ liking as he felt uncomfortable with the boy who felt as if he could stab and attack everyone around him now even though he hold no grudge. “I won’t believe anything unless Dominic said he could believe you,” Starvos made his point but he didn’t attack Shawn at once as he saw the umbrella held on Shawn’s hands. “Isn’t that the object that Dominic wanted to bring from the castle?” Mona questioned for Starvos to nod slowly. This was why he hesitate. If they had somehow ruined the umbrella, the one to suffer the loss wouldn’t be Shawn but Dominic. As long as Shawn hold the umbrella, neither of them could attack him. “You should be grateful to the u

    Starvos and Mona heard as Shawn spilled all his me,pries about Rose. The elders who had always kept Rose on their heart closely and hidden it keep her as their own daughter figure was shocked to find that they had forgotten about her, someone who they had apparently loved and cared so deeply as much as they had cared for Dominic. Starvos was confused. He asked himself why could he forgot about her but then no matter how long Shawn had brought up their deepest memories, they still couldn’t remember much about Rose.They couldn’t even remember how did she looked like and what her voice sounded like. Shawn who saw this was impressed. He didn’t know the magic that Rose had worked on would be so perfect that no one could remember a single thing about her. But he thought to himself that Dominic shouldn’t be too worried. While it’s true that Rose had ran away from him, she didn’t seem to want so that his memories about her to be forgotten, meaning she deep down had always wanted so that sh

    Fominic lifted his face and frowned slowly after hearing Shawn’s words. That would mean that he didn’t hurt her by curse by making everyone to forget about her? Because.. the curse that had made people to forget her wasn’t done by the demon?“That makes no sense then for her to blame you,” said Shawn again and he wondered how someone who always spoke of him lovingly would suddenly change her mind and hate Dominic deeply with all her heart or even blaming Dominic for saving him when she knew this was one of the sore spot in Dominic’s heart. “I don’t know, I don’t understand but I could tell by her scent that she wasn’t lying to me that she really did blamed me,” Dominic replied, recalling how firm Rose’s eyes were as she had shouted the most hurtful words she had toward him while he listened and take in the words that he thought he deserved to hear. “Perhaps she had to erase everyone’s memories by her own hands as the demon request her to,” Dominic whispered out the possibility.Mona

    The way how Shawn had mentioned Jeremiah to be a fake father made Dominic to slowly realize just how the adults around Shawn had turned the poor boy into thinking that there were nothing good from the world. It made Dominic to wonder if he could have been a happier kid if he had been born under a normal circumstances. If Shawn was born in a family where he wasn’t his older brother and where Ashley wouldn’t always have to compete with his mother. He hated to always think of “ifs” as he knew his mind wouldn’t stop imagining the possibility of how their lives could have been better if it wasn’t because of these people around them. They could have been happier if no one was greedy for what they already had.. If that was the case, he wouldn’t have to be cursed and Rose wouldn’t have to suffer the curse beside him. “Dominic.” Starvos called him but saw how he was deep in his thought appearing to be entertaining his thoughts more than the reality in front of him that slightly worried

    Starvos could smell the sweet scent he always recalled in his dream. Only in his dream was his memories of her was the freshest. The only time he recalled her voice, her fragrance, her appearance as if she had just appeared the other day was when he had closed his eyes and fall into his dreamland. But now he could smell it all again, as if she was here. Her lavender scent, her thin arms that wrapped around his shoulders like warm blanket and her body that pressed softly on his back. Starvos didn’t know why but he could feel himself was on the verge of tears, feeling as if his heart that had been ripped and torn again and again was slowly fixed and bandaged by the simple hug from his back. He didn’t know what to say only whispering in a daze, “Eliza?” Dominic who had stood at the garden, feeling exhausted from the depth of his soul was startled when he saw the faint figure of a woman dressed in white hugging Starvos from behind. He knew the woman well, as she had never looked any o

    All that Elizabeth wanted was to be beside Starvos and Dominic but alas the world wasn’t so kind to them to let the three of them together. Her simple wish was too difficult for the world to grant but she had made peace with it since her death. The only worries she had was of Dominic and Starvos’ safety, knowing her loss will create a big hole on their heart. But seeing how they could stand next to each other now, Elizabeth could tell the future she wanted seemed possible for her son. She gently kissed his forehead, then moved to Starvos to smile. Her lips parted to speak but as a ghost she couldn’t spell a single word with a voice. When she realized how her words couldn’t be heard, Elizabeth only laugh putting a rest to the words she want to say for someone else to utter. “Mother?” Dominic who had immersed himself in the gentleness of his mother’s warmth was shocked to see how she slowly back away. As he reached out his hand to hold hers, he found her hands around him had left his

    Dominic and Shawn continued to speak to each other. It wasn’t certainly their first time to convey words to their siblings but both of them felt a certain awkwardness in the air that made it even more lovable and fragile to them.Shawn who had held the coffee cup then questioned Dominic. “Do you plan to search for Rose now?”Dominic nodded his head firmly. He didn’t know what Rose had in mind but he could tell she was sincere with her words and as painful as her words was to his heart, he accepted the fact that he was the one who had ruined her life. Even though she would hate to know he tried to repay her for erasing his curse, Dominic who still feel his burning love for Rose would never want to see her suffer alone.“I will find a way so that everyone remember her again and so the demon’s curse would disappear from her life.”Shawn silently listened to his wish and smiled, “Do you still love her? I mean from your words I can hear that she hates you.”“It’s not her choice to hate me.

    The evening before, Isaac watched as the final blood of the royal heir have finally breathed his last and pulled his widest smile. He pushed himself from the stairs, looking at the sun that had appeared to greet the new morning and spread his arms wide as though he was waiting for someone to appear. But as he does, he noticed no one appeared that caused his wide smile to slowly fade.Isaac put his thumb between his teeth, biting his flesh in annoyance, “Still he doesn’t want to come out?” His feet that was glued on the floor began to step hurriedly. His master! The man, he had always admired, his god! The day where he could finally escape the cave that always bound him, finally appear! This should end his curse and allow him to show his mightiness to the world, but where is he? Isaac waited until the sun was high up, still hoping to the silver hope that his master will come after him.

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.

    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
