His breathing was uneven due to the little run he had from where his disappearing spell had dropped him. He threw himself on the old dusty couch near the fireplace.

His home was dark and gloomy with a sense of gothic presence. He got up from his dusty chair and headed towards his room. Spiderwebs hung everywhere as he made his way through. He pushed what seemed like a thousand year old cutton aside, not giving any attention to his patched throat. His main concern was that woman he captured in his orb.

The masked man took the orb to a deeper side of his home where creaking of the wooden floor and doors were heard. He placed the orb down, taking a large book from the shelf close to him.

The book made him cough hard when he looked through its dusty pages searching for the right spell to free Delilah. His cough came to an immediate end the moment he finished dusting the book. He squeezed his eyes trying to read the letters on the book which was almost impossible due to the little words

  • Three realms    Surprise

    Dinner was peacefully romantic, the red candles and red rose petals around the dinning table made it look beautiful. Levi together with Zina sat down opposite each other as they had their meal quietly.Levi hardly ate the food on his plate, he was lost in thought, wondering what Zina's answer was going to be when he popped up the mystery question. Her soft voice caught his run-away attention the moment he saw she was choking.She kept coughing, her hands signaled how she struggled to breath and her eyes were teary. She looked scared and her bright face turned red like the colour of a tomato.Levi gave her the proper assistant she needed. He stood behind her back, placed his hands at the necessary places and administered help to her. After much struggle, she spat out the piece of food blocking her airflow.Due to exhaustion, she fell lazely on Levi's arms. Their faces, only an inch from each other as their noses touch. Levi leaned in closer to capture her lips but she place her index

Never had she dreamed of being proposed to the way Levi did. she ruffled her hair with her hand, screaming into her pillow for comfort."I think I made the wrong choice, Levi was right, I'm selfish. I put the kingdom first." She cried some more only to be disturbed by Ann's knocks."Go away, I want to be alone," Zina told Ann firmly. Ann was angry but her greatest joy would take place at the break of dawn. She spared one last glance at the princess' door, swiftly moving to her room without delay."Akeelah stop hitting the door and just come in like you usually do," Levi spoke in his husky voice. When the banging refused to stop, he got up to see who was at the door but before he opened the door, a group of men in black clothing broke in. Their faces were masked making it impossible for them to be identified.They formed a circle around him to preve

    Zina woke up tired, her eyes were swollen and she was still wearing the gown she wore for dinner last night."Good morning Princess," Ann said, causing Zina to gaze in her direction."I'm not here to ask questions or ask your permission, princess, but as long as you remain crowned princess, your parents put me in charge of you and I can't let you keep making terrible mistakes. Only the night creatures know what that peasant boy did to you. From now on, he is not going to step foot in this palace. I'll advise you not to argue with me, I think it's about time I take charge."Zina was quiet all through, she knew she acted childish yesterday but how was she going to tell Ann that she loved Levi and that the reason she was crying last night was because he proposed and due to some circumstances, she was unable to accept. Ann slowly made her way to the door as she thought of more things to do. She paused, turned around and informed Zina to meet her in the meeting room in an hour. Zina nodde

Coordinating herself, she started telling the whole story to Ann."Princess Zina went for dinner with the gardener and then he proposed to her and…""He proposed? He really did cross the line this time! Zina you're in big trouble." Ann said as she moved Swiftly to Zina's room.

    "Propose? Don't you think you're going too far, you said you just need to find out some things from Zina and now you're talking about marriage?" Marcus uttered in shock."Yes Marcus, I have a new plan. She wasn't willing to give me the info when we were just friends so I want there to be a stronger bond between us."Marcus gazed at Xavier in a suspecting manner, he studied his face for a while as he spoke,"Are you sure you aren't falling for this girl? You're taking things too far, I mean that's just too much.""Nothing is too much Marcus, my plan will proceed. We'll put plan A and plan B into action so if one fails, the other one will cover up.

Ann explained sadly"Nanny, Levi isn't like that Duke. I don't even know what I want anymore," Zina sobs in the process of speaking."I like Levi but I can't accept him. I have better plans for myself and the kingdom. You can take your leave now, we've discussed enough." Zina pointed the way out to Ann."I came here to make peace and you're sending me away?""You started the war in the first place nanny, I was an obedient girl to your every command yet you don't trust me."

    "I can't take this any more mother, am I hallucinating or is it just reality. These dreams and visions are way too much, is there something you aren't telling me?""Not at all my daughter, believe me I'm not hiding anything from you, trust me." Her mother tried to calm her down but she refused."Who is my real mother?" Abigail asked firmly, leaving no room for objections. Hearing the question, her supposed mother knew she could no longer deny the fact that she knew what Abigail was talking about."Sit down dear, there's a lot you need to know," she said in a sorrowful tone. "Before I say anything, please understand that your mother and I did this to protect you from your father. He was a warlock and…""I can't believe you kept this from me mom, I spent twenty years of my life with you and this is what I get? Lies and more lies, do you even care about me?""Yes I do Abigail, I really do. Your mother and I care about you so much." "Whose Nelly," Abigail asked almost in tear,"Nelly is

Levi chuckled lightly as he stood up."So you do love me?""And you love me too." She answered back as she hit his chest. "Don't ever do that again!" She yelled and was about to walk away when Levi pulled her by her waist."Now that everything is settled, what next?" He asked, causing her to face him.

She opened her door and her eyes widened in shock as she gasped in suprise."What are you doing?" She rushed to Zina's side and pushed Xavier away."Finally, I can kill two sisters the same day."

Her palm rubbed her eyes as she yawned tiredly."Levi and I have to get moving, my sister is in trouble." She said in a haste as she got into comfortable clothes."Can't you wait till the morning? It's very late, you can tell from the skies." Janet tried to persuade her but Xena was gone."Levi, Levi." Jenny banged loudly on his door and soon everyone was gathered there."What is it Jenny?"

I never knew they were coming here." She spoke innocently, her eyes narrowed to the ground."I'll make it up to you just please don't hurt them." She held onto his arms but he yanked it off."Would you really do anything?" He turned to her, his eyes looked at her in a sinister manner."Yes." She said in a hurry."Good girl." He smirked before telling her everything."No! I won't do that." Her face was squeezed and she seemed mad."What's so evil about taking over the human race, for years we've been kept in hiding, it's time to show them what we're really made of. We'll attack and put them under control." His eyes scanned her from head to toe before speaking again."You better keep to your own end of the bargain."

That explains why she's not getting better!" Ann roared angrily."I caught you sleeping with a maid and I thought it was a mistake but now I can clearly see things. What was your main objective?" Her eyes studied Xavier as she mumbled some words. "You can't harm me old fool, I'm under a protection spell and there's nothing you can do. You think your Zina is so smart to rule this kingdom and mine? Well now I'm doing something my father couldn't do, I'm taking back my kingdom and yours."

She didn't speak, however she just looked for a way to come out of his hold."Do you need me to drop you?" He asked and she nodded shyly."I didn't mean to stare at your lips." She explained with a narrow gaze. Her cheek was red due to embarrassment."You didn't answer my question from the beginning." He stared at her for a long time but she turned her face away. "Is it better if I don't answer you?" She gazed into his eyes causing him to sighed tiredly."It's fine." He said, gesturing to her at the door."Aren't you scared?"

"Please send for Ann and I need a glass of water, could you bring it to me?" She gave him a weak smile and her face wasn't as bright as before."I'll do that." He replied before walking away."How's she doing." Ann said once she bumped into Xavier."She's not getting better."

His eyes widened and then reality played."It's probably because You're a goddess so you could see the past or something like that."

This was the first time she had seen a man without clothing. "I went for a swim, I didn't know I'll find you here."
