Daphne's point of view. LEGENDS CREATION COLLEGE_(School infirmary).I shivered as a gush of cold breeze blew past me, I sleepily adjusted myself on the couch and hugged a cushion tighter to keep myself warm -but sadly, that didn't do much to help.My eyes snapped open and they looked straight at Drake's bed, I realized his blanket has blown off his body. I groggily got up and walked towards him, I adjusted the blanket and covered him up properly.My eyes moved to the wall clock in the room, a gasp slipped off my mouth when I realized it's almost 9pm -I should get ready to go home or my parents are gonna be worried.Suddenly we were swallowed in darkness, I let out a short shriek and hugged myself tight because I'm afraid of the dark, it always makes me feel as if someone's coming after me.The windows near Drake's bed suddenly open, the windows also blew open and I took a peek outside, there seem to be light in the school."Or is this power outage only on this building?" I couldn't
Arabella's point of view. KING'S PALACE.A yawn escaped my lips as I tried to keep my eyes open, it's almost 10pm but Wymond still isn't back yet.My mind flashed back to Drake, I haven't check up on him since he was taken to the hospital -maybe I should give Daphne a call.I reached for my phone and dialed Daphne's number, the call went straight to voicemail which made me frown.What's going on? Why can't I reach her through phone? I even tried to mind-link her earlier, but I still couldn't reach her then -I hope all is well with her.At that moment Wymond walked in, I sprang up and rushed towards him but halted abruptly when I noticed he's looking tired. What has he been doing in the wizardry forest? Did he have a fight with someone? But who would dare have a fight with the beast King?."You're awake" he said as his steps slowed down."Hm" "You should go to sleep" he said and headed towards the bathroom."Wait" He stopped and turned to face me, he raised his left eyebrow at me t
Arabella's point of view. I woke up with a strong urge to use the bathroom, I kicked the blanket off me and tried to get up but couldn't -something seems to be pulling me down.What's going on? I wondered mentally.I quickly closed down and saw a strong arm firmly holding my waist, I frowned.Whose arm is this? And why is he holding me? My eyes traced the arm to its owner."Wymond?!" I exclaimed loudly."Hm?" he hummed sleepily.A deep frown appeared on my face as I immediately looked around, and realized we're in Wymond's room, but how?.Wasn't I sleeping in one of those guest rooms last night? What the heck happened?.I scratched my head as I tried to recall what had happened last night.I stormed out of Wymond's room and headed for the stairs, with the thought of using one of the guest rooms downstairs.I bumped into Renee on the way because I was in such a hurry, grumbling and wasn't watching where I was going."Oh, I'm sorry" I muttered quickly and made to run off, but she held
Arabella's point of view. FEW MINUTES LATER. "... he's such an idiot, can you believe I'm actually falling for him?" I cried loudly."Ok, I think you've had enough drink for....""No" I pushed her off me and moved away from her.I staggeringly walked to a corner and sat on the floor, I hugged the bottle of wine to my chest."He..he... ne-never listens to me, he doesn't love me and...and..." I paused and took another large gulp from the bottle. "...and never even acknowledge I'm his mate, the b@stard never open up to me..." I burped loudly. "...he kisses me whenever he feels like and push me away when he thinks I'm annoying"I threw my head back, I groaned when my head bumped on the wall and I burst into tears."He thinks I'm still a kid" I cried more.I saw two Renee rushing towards me, my brows furrowed as I tried to differentiate the original Renee from the fake Renee."It's alright, it's alright, I'll scold him for you later..how about that?"She held my shoulders and tried to
Arabella's point of view. We tailed Wymond from a safe distance for a few minutes, until he stopped near a small lake, we ducked and quickly hide behind a tall bush when he suddenly turned around.He looked around cautiously as if he felt our presence, his eyes zeroed on the bush we were using as our shield and furrowed his eyebrows. My heart started beating fast in fear as he took slow steps towards the bush, I grabbed Edward's arm and pinched him very hard -I didn't even realized I was pinching him."Do you think he knows we were tailing him? What's gonna happen if we get caught?" I whispered in a very low but panicked voice. Edward quickly slammed his hand over my mouth, he made us duck even lower and shook his head at me, then made me read his lips."His Majesty's super hearing is far more clearer than ours, his ears can pick up sounds from a thousand miles" he mouthed at me. "Oh" I mouthed back as I quickly nodded in understanding.My ears perked up at the sound of Wymond ste
Arabella's point of view. "I... I can't, I can't continue" I breathe out as I stopped walking and leaned slightly on Edward's shoulder.After walking for a moment we finally saw a door a few meters away from us, there's a very bright light shining from it and we were happy that we'll soon leave this dark tunnel or whatever it is.But for some strange reasons, we couldn't reach the door, the faster we walked towards the farther it becomes."I'm afraid, His Majesty must have felt our presence and cast a spell on us""What?" I exclaimed loudly. "Weren't we quiet enough?" I asked.He chuckled lightly."Ara, he's the King of the supernatural world and it would be weird if he doesn't know we're tailing him" he said.I nodded in agreement, his words made a lot of sense."Then what are we going to do now? Should we go back?" I paused. "Wait, do you even know the exit?" "We can't go back now, this is your only chance to know what His Majesty's curse is... and maybe how you can help him break
Third person's point of view. "Ara!" Edward whispered yelled in a panicked voice when he saw Ara collapsing. He was quick to catch her before she could hit the ground, he gently rested her head on his chest then leaned closer to listen if he can pick a heartbeat.He breathe out in relief when he heard her heart beating very faintly."Holy shît" he breathe out. "That was a very close one".He swooped her in his arms and turned to leave there quickly before Wymond comes out of the hut -but unfortunately, he wasn't fast enough. A very deep and angry growl sounded from behind, which made his legs stayed glued on a spot, his shoulders tensed and he closed his eyes hoping the ground would open up and swallow him to evade Wymond's punishment.He slowly turned around Ara was snatched from him and Wymond's hand went directly around his neck in a very tight grip.He singlehandedly lifted Edward off his feet by his neck, making Edward's eyes rolled to the back of his head as he choked on air.
Arabella's point of view. "...I woke up this morning and I was already at the infirmary. The doctor said I was just being paranoid and thought I saw someone who was trying to strangle me" she explained.I frowned."You didn't hallucinate, it happened""Huh? What do you mean?" she asked.I looked around for my phone and I saw it laying on the bedside table, I quickly reached for it and handed it to her."There are red marks on your neck, you really did see someone" I paused. "Drake might be in trouble" I said.Daphne let out a short shriek when she saw the marks, she slammed my phone on the bed and growled lowly."That d@mn doctor lied to me" she frowned. "He clearly saw these marks, why did he lied to me?" she questioned herself.I frowned as I connected two dots from her words -the silhouette standing beside Drake's bed and the doctor lying to Daphne -is there any connection between them? And who the heçk is that silhouette? Why business does he have with Drake that he would go to h
