As I expected, it was a lie. And that lie almost cost her life. I was eager to kill her, now she was mine. Nonetheless, she was the exact copy of Veronica but she wasn’t her. Because if Veronica was here, she would have already used her hands to seduce me, like she always did. Except for her different eyes, she had a bigger chest. Soft. Plump. My hands enjoyed massaging them and they couldn’t even hold all of her flesh in palms. In the end, I retracted my hands since she slept quickly. Was I this relaxing? I intended to ask more questions. I waved my hand and a shadow guard appeared behind me.
“Quickly look for information about my slave. More importantly, Dig the royal family history and look for a missing twin child.”
“Yes, my Lord.”
She jumped when I moved to let her sleep comfortably; she was beautiful as a wild rose with a lot of thorns. I found a gold mine; she could be the future Veronica and mi

DAHLIA: “Mimi! Mimi! Look she is awake!” “You’re right! Can you see us? Please, tell us, you see us.” Two voices rushed to my ears the moment I woke up, exhausted. It has been days or two weeks maybe three since I lost my virginity and we have been doing it everyday, several times. He had great stamina. The Duke didn’t joke about his energy and the servant who warned me didn’t joke either. He did sex with his slaves until they couldn’t open their eyes. I had two spectres over my head but my experience with the Lingering still present made me immune to fear over ghosts. One was cold and mysterious with dull eyes. The other one was bright and energetic. However, the voices unmistakably belonged to teen girls. Were they dead? My senses gradually returned to me as my body fought against numbness. The best course of actions was to sleep again until the ghosts went away; I didn’t want to be stuck with another weirdo, the Duke was enou

DAHLIA: I swallowed watching the Duke turning into a monstrous being growing in strength. What happened? What did I do? I was just protecting myself. Should I escape? They would probably think I tried to murder the Duke and kill me. I didn’t want to die. Oh! Please God! I didn’t want to waste my life on something trivial. But what happened to him? My body froze in its place and my eyes watched the Duke letting his sword fall to the ground and clasping his head between his arm twisting and screaming. It was as if he was trying to control something in him. My legs trembled under me as I tried to flee. I wanted to get out of here. I didn’t know what happened but I wasn’t ready to give up my life. “What are you doing?” Mimi asked. “My sister is suffering there. Grab her first then let’s flee away together.” “But she… She… She is next to him. I-I-I can’t get close. I don’t want to die. I struggled hard to stay alive. You were the one who tol

NELDRISDYD: She didn’t wake up. It has been six days and I was shocked by what I heard; the two swords that I thought rusty were powerful. The knights told me what truly happened. The rusty sword I used didn’t break and the one she used didn’t even injure me. When fighting, it was as if two opposite elements clashed creating a beautiful scenery. I didn’t even visit her since I choked her to unconsciousness. I raised my head watching a mad Lady Markbill pushing the door open and barging into my office angrily. She threw her cane on the desk taking all my attention and stood up perfectly normal, not like a Lady who complained from backache and weak legs. “I thought you were better than him but each day passes you prove the opposite,” I could see the tightness around her mouth and the barely suppressed anger in her eyes under her thick cloak. “You wound my pride, Lady Markbill. I wish to know what made you this angry at me,

DAHLIA: Before my senses came back to me, all traces left by the battle were wiped clean. The training ground I stared at from the window was the same as when we started fighting. It was then I began to realize the Duke didn’t want anyone to know about his curse, he put so much effort into hiding it and the sword I used to slay him let it go loose. I bet he would never forgive me; everyone said he was a dark Duke, full of cruelty and mercilessness. As cold sweat washed over my back, I could still hear the scream he made when the curse got a hold of him. I tried to ask the swords what happened later and I was met with inconvenience; Mimi and Momo didn’t want to share a word with me. I was confident he would rob my life than it already was if I talked about what happened; I should act as nothing happened. Nonetheless, I felt different since then. The fear of death was still present in me but I earned another thing: I wanted to help others if I co

DAHLIA: As I listened to the stranger’s stories one after one, I examined the torch. The fire would continue burning until the reserve of magic ran out. I didn’t have to worry about it running out and leaving me in the dark. I picked some juicy worms and put them next to me searching for a stick. I eyed a small bone I wished it belonged to an animal then prayed for the owner’s salvation. “And like that, Dotoria was born; a land for humans to rule, cursing other races within its borders into madness and cruelty, condemning them to relinquish all emotions and deny their selves. What are you doing? I smell something burning.” I jumped from my place retrieving the stick of worms. “Just some worms over the fire, I feel like my body didn’t taste food for a week.” “Oh yeah! They must be delicious! Check out the bugs too, they have such crunchy legs,” he joked but I was serious. “Oh! I didn’t think of that. Lemme put some over t

DAHLIA: Fredden left me as fast as he came. I stared at his back, disappearing behind the crowd and the Duke’s face with a mask appearing after him. He sat down pushing a satchel he brought with him. I realized our meals were late and no eyes followed him. “Go and wear this! It might be the first and last present you might get from me. After that, we are strangers in disguise. You will be on your own,” he said. How was I supposed to wear black like a widow? I shouldn’t be choosy. I looked around searching for a place to change my clothes. Guessing my question, he walked away and I followed him. His hand found mine in the midst of all the noise and people moving in all direction. My cheeks felt hot and my eyes lowered to watch our hands intertwined together. Strangely, I didn’t hate his contact or touch. I found myself aware of all his movements, my eyes following him everywhere. He was weird but his back was so wide. We walked through a

NELDRISDYD: I set her free because of Lady Markbill’s request. It wasn’t because I liked it. I didn’t want to ruin my relationship with her; Lady Markbill could be scary when she wanted. I saw how she previously beat a high ranked criminal, which had a bounty of gold coins. And I wouldn’t risk it. To what extend could we fix broken things? Sometimes, it was better to give up on them and move on. I allowed her to go because she wasn’t part of the world I invaded of my own free will. She was like a lamb in the middle of a horde of wolves. I didn’t why we used wolves as description for villains; I did it unconsciously. Wolves were the noblest animals with furs; they knew the meaning of family and tribe. You would never find a wolf outside of its group. They did everything together. The world I belonged in had unique villains that made their goals reason with the truth, they had all reasons you could agree with them if you didn’t know better.

DAHLIA: Lilith said if I had a crush on a man, it would be better to spread the legs and be engulfed in pleasure until I had enough. I didn’t have enough! I DIDN’T HAVE ENOUGH! I didn’t like her advice before; it was more the hymn of a drunkard. Now, her advice suited my reality and I decided, to return to him and have enough. It wasn’t like because I didn’t find a good shelter or I was desperate for money. Simply because I didn’t have enough. I knew he was bossy like his words had to be heard by everyone and executed in the letter. And he was fake… Literally fake, completely fake. At this moment, I wasn’t even confident he was the same Duke I knew. Was he an actor? What kind of game did he play? I saw the Duke again. No one knew how much excitement I felt seeing his face all confused and shocked. I could almost hear his thoughts, like what was she doing here? I helped her escape creating a whole circus, yet, she fell in front of me like a rock

DAHLIA:Too much of the past for one to memorize…I literally jumped from my place like I was having a nightmare. I thought I was dead. The spear pierced my heart and I died protecting him… It hurt… It hurt so much… I was happy to know the future that he was still there waiting for me. My arms wrapped around my body, consoling me. I lost so many beloved people. The year I spent there made me realize so much. To think I was the one who pushed Neldrisdyd down that road. Where was Fredden? I needed to speak to him and Victor also… Oh, Victor was dead. I completely forgot about that.“I am sorry… I am sorry for putting you through all that. I didn’t intend to turn your lives into hell,” I cried.I cried for many reasons; one of them was I knew the future I was going into was one where Victor wasn’t there. I met him in that past and grew to like him. He was the previous cr

NELDRISDYD:“Let’s have a talk! You might be strong now but I am too. I don’t intend to apply treachery and trickery to win this battle. Your army is no less than mine; I developed monsters worthy to rival yours. I made a pact with the Devil to have you back, don’t you see that?” the king spoke with a voice that seemed young. A voice that made me stay in the shadows for more than a few seconds. I stared at the orb that floated in front of me, left by Aurora. I was a side character in all this. Was I worthy to join her side? I should be there. Standing there and having my revenge…“You used human lives to make the atrocities you command. I applaud you, old friend. Don’t joke upon bringing me back! You know the Devil can’t bring me back. There no attornment in thousands years of pain and suffering! Even if I turn you into thousands of pieces, my rage wouldn’t subside. Do you know how

NELDRISDYD:“Will you keep standing aside?” Aurora’s voice echoed in my head then she appeared next to me as I watched hidden in a safe place. I followed Lady Markbill because I was worried. I didn’t want her to die. “Are you planning to pull the twin swords to fight her? You are in a big mistake here. Didn’t you notice how she didn’t even appear? The one who called you master and was proud of having you as one. You see they know this situation is because of them… The two of swords is the High Priestess special weapon, you can’t use it in her presence.”“What? I didn’t know that. So I need a good weapon…”“I can help you with that. You need to seal her if you want your beloved to come back. The High Priestess isn’t someone that needs to come back now.”“Why are you doing all this? I think it’

NELDRISDYD:It was an important day for me and for Mathilda as well; if Dahlia came back after doing what she did, she would understand that she aimed for this. I was always curious why Mathilda hated the Jamaerah; it seemed that it was because of all this. I could see, at the moment, her ambition and determination clearly; she accepted all the pain and didn’t change it for one bit, she even left people behind to make her snap possible. For her, it was again. Such a shame she wouldn’t watch the sight I beheld in front of me! Her shining silhouette on top of the castle was visible to my eyes. She had armour in the shape of a dress.I joined Fredden who was standing not far from the Palace’s gate, a horrified gaze following the army of evil spirits. “What happened?”“Huh?” his expression turned to surprise. “I think they messed up; I told them to not ruin anything but they still went at it. The

NELDRISDYD:“Isn’t humanity doomed if you don’t unite? Dotoria is like a safe zone for humans who suffered outside of it…”“Don’t spout nonsense. Dotoria isn’t a dreamland. It’s hell for everyone and for better, it’s better to sacrifice the rotten minds to make a better place. Now, you who pulled me in this dimension, push me outside. I need to complete my mission.”“I didn’t pull you inside; it was Victoria. Even if I could do it, I wouldn’t. You are nothing to me to help you out. You can always wait for dawn to forcefully move back to your body. Such a shame! She pulled you here to make the last resistance she had fade. Do you know that, little Duke? You were the last piece that made her cling to this part of the world and after seeing you, she completely gave up. Doesn’t this make you have a little tenderness towards her?”“Deci
Whisper of the stone heart Chapter 45
NELDRIDYD:My mark itched; I felt like half of it faded. Indeed, it was the case; half of my dragon mark had faded only leaving the other half. Did it mean she completely disappeared? No, I didn’t think so. I didn’t want to believe it. What was she fighting all this time?For someone who struggled so hard, I didn’t think she would give up this easily; I was certain she would find her way back. Such a shame I didn’t get from her where she was. However, it wasn’t a hard thing to guess; there was a huge laboratory under the Palace. For most Dotoria’s citizens, it was hard to believe such a huge space existed beneath them. Yet, it was there seemingly from the beginning of Dotoria. I was there in the past. The late Duke of Mizenth, my father, gave me up to the mad scientist for a year when I was six to conduct experiments on me. He wanted the dragon part on my body to disappear but it didn’t work. The ma

NELDRISDYD:I have been walking for a while inside this darkness; it was my first time coming to this kind of dream. Since meeting Dahlia, she gave me the vibes of someone I used to know; someone who died sacrificing herself for me to continue living. However, her sacrifice only made me lose sight of life and made me desire death like no one ever did. I wanted to reunite with her in the afterlife but meeting Dahlia made my plans go to an unexpected path; I wanted to keep living. But I was cursed and with a limited time.Unexpectedly, this dimension wasn’t bad; I felt like something pulled me in and I found myself between the shadows walking. It must have been something she passed to me too. Did she ever come here? It didn’t seem like it; she never spoke about something like this. The shadows had humanoid figures but instead of a shadow, there was a glimpse of the other side; the world I belonged to. It was already strange and weird. I
Whisper of the stone heart Chapter 43
DAHLIA:I didn’t want to see it. I didn’t want to hear it.Nothing was worth keeping me for in this world; I was better off dying. The Duke rejected me and no matter how many taboos I put in front of me, they all end up chattering in front of what I experienced. I didn’t want to believe everything started with them. The Jamaerah knew of my existence since I put foot inside Dotoria and they manipulated my fate until recently. Wasn’t it in vain to struggle? Would it be better to put down the flame with my own hands?What was I? Who was I?Why did they give birth to me when I had no choice in choosing my destiny? I hated this life. The mad scientist had a similar face as Erasmus and they called him Erasmus number two. After welcoming me inside again, I didn’t remember being inside his laboratory; I only remembered being somewhere else where he examined me. That was right! He examined me, only that, then wh

NELDRISYD:“Wait a minute… You already know all that. I bet you know everything about the Jamaerah. Who told you about it? And since when you have been deceiving all of us. You wanted to cut her off to keep her from finding out about your plan. What is it, master? I already swore to follow you,” he bent down on one knee respective of the norm between a master and a servant.How did he find out? He was too clever; I felt glad he was my servant. “What do you think I am planning?” I lounged back on my chair behind my desk and eyed him, interested.He raised his chin, this time his gaze showing so much admiration. It was true; I forced my mind to keep everything away until the right time. Victor warned me several times about the risks and limits, that there are people between the Jamaerah who could see through thoughts like a glass of water. However, she was someone I never expected to exist and disturb what I pl
