"The Ginnak book of spells was never invented as a spell book, it was a warning book." Robert halted and peered at her, this gave her goosebumps. He didn't even tell her to wait a day to learn about the Ginnak.He then proceeded, "A warning book to tell the people about the misfortunes of being around a Ginnak. Ginnaks back then lived among humans.""Why would humans live among them when they know it's bad?" Alexandra raised a question. She saw no reason a person would want to stay close to a dangerous person or creature."At that time, the Ginnaks weren't deranged, the texts were just for safety measures. But as soon as the Ginnak's eyes fell on the book, their sanity snapped.""How? Why?" She was abruptly perplexed. Surely, the book wasn't that powerful."You see, this book holds powers, destructive powers. In the humans' eyes, the words written on the book were mere phrases to scare them off the Ginnak, but to the Ginnaks, It was inscribed differently."Comprehending something, she
The chirping of birds and the radiance of the morning sun made the sleeping woman grunt slightly."Sara, close the window." She announced loudly and proceeded with her sleep. After some time she heard no reply from Sara or footsteps. Infuriated slightly, she called out again."Sara…can you close the window, the sun is blazing."After a few seconds, she angrily opened her eyes. As she scanned around she then remembered one thing,This wasn't the palace.Gradually her memories began to flow. She glanced at the side of the room and met eye-to-eye with an amused man. He had a smile in his eyes and a chuckle on his lips."You've finally awakened." His eyes were still smiling.What was so funny??She shrugged as she had no idea what was so amusing until she turned her head and saw her reflection."Argh!!" She shrieked out in terror and the man released his laughter.Her dress was changed to a different one, and this dress made her look like a doll. Then her hair looked more like a bird's nes
"QUEEN AMIRIA!" Her name was being cried out by numerous people. She recognized the voices, they were the voices of her guards and handmaid. She also heard a few that she couldn't recognize, so she took them as the voices of the other guards.She glanced at Vamurus who was under her. In an attempt to save her, he used his back as a shield against the hard ground.She noticed that his upper arm was bruised as he stood up, and the edges of tiny woods had pierced into his back."Are you alright?" He asked softly. That should be her question. She thought. She trudged closer to him and observed his injuries."Will you follow me home? I know how to tend to such wounds." Amiria mumbled. She knows of a way to make it heal faster than an average physician."There's no need for that, Miss Amiria, I can tend to it myself."Amiria didn't bother to correct him. He didn't even know her name at first, he didn't even seem to be from around here."Ok, bye." Amiria flapped at hand at him a little before
Inside the Palace."Who's he?" Amiria was appalled at his query."What do you mean?" She inquired."The male, who's he?" The King interrogated again.Guessing he was speaking about the man who saved her, she responded with a smile."I don't think he's from here. His dress and everything seemed different. And–" she was cut off."Are you that desperate?" His utterance stung her heart."What do you mean?" She dreaded what he meant."Are you that desperate that you ran into the arms of a stranger and allow him to have his way with you,""I won't have you insult my dignity.""Is this what I get after all the love I've rained on you?" His tone indicated he was hurt."Why aren't you believing me?""Because Salia saw the two of you." He hesitated for a second and implored. "Was he outfitted in a long odd white coat with a golden-brown shoe, and was his hair a lengthy white hair?""Yes, I-""Were you on top of him earlier today behind a tree, his back was on the ground.""He was saving me from
"Queen Amiria did have a lover," Alexandra believed."That was before she tied the knot with the King. Her intention of coming to that kingdom was to find the sacred stone." Robert heightened her."Why did she need the stone?""To bring her lover back from the dead."Lexi huffed. "That's impossible!"Robert cocked his brow, "Was it?""You know very well it is impossible." She asserted."We'll stop here for now." Robert was implying to the yore of the Ginnak."Why? I'm not feeling sleepy or anything.""I know, but you need to lie.""But my eyes are clear, There's not an ounce of sleep in me right now.""Really?" He implored with a cocked brow.Alexandra was about to nod when a yawn escaped her lips. "Oops, I think I am." She stood up from her chair after saying good night to Robert and headed for the door. And departed it.In the hallway, she recalled she forgot to ask something. So she turned back to the cabin.She knocks before opening the door."Robert, I forgot to ask if-" That was
"Are you aiming to blackmail me?""If that's what you call it." He asserted and shrugged.After some time of contemplating, Alexandra let out. "I don't know how to sleep on the couch, I won't get comfortable." Her voice was meager and fluffy."The couch is too small for me." "But the bed is big enough for the two of us.""What? I'm not sharing a mattress with you." She squeaked like a spoiled brat."Have it your way then. Just do you know, I'm laying on that bed."The Dominic she knows wasn't loosened up. Something was advising her to go back to her room. But she had a terrifying nightmare where an imaginary Vamurus was after Amiria, a girl that looks like her. It was quite scary to her.She watched as Dominic climbed the bed and left a space for her. Dominic wasn't this friendly.Shrugging the thoughts in her head off, she strides toward the side of the bed and laid on it.Silence then filled the room.After minutes, Dominic opened his eyes and turned his head to Alexandra. Her stead
The following morning, Lexi rapidly freshened up and ran towards Robert's cabin. He had an unfinished tale to tell her."Robert…" She dubbed for him as she trudged into his cabin. But there he was, on his bed with a sallow pale face."Are you alright, Robert? You look weak," She strode towards him and held his hand. It was scorching."Don't worry about me, little girl," he chortles lightly, "I'm as strong as a teenager.""Lasses aren't strong again, take me for an example.""Don't underestimate yourself, Lexi, a tiny frame might wield the leverage that could take down a regime. People aren't usually small because of nature, but because of what they haul in them. The pressure might be too much."Lexi could guarantee she didn't comprehend an ounce of what he said. But still, she nodded."Since you're unwell, I'll leave the storytelling for another day," Alexandra informed him."What storytelling?" Robert explored weakly.Reckoning he had forgotten due to his nausea, she countered. "The
Alexandra didn't know what was transpiring. She had been in Robert's room, aiding him.Subsequently, she departed his cabin the following day to get water, she spotted Dominic, he was formally clothed. So also Thomas.She ambled toward them and scrutinized them, then she noted they have luggage with them.Were they traveling?"Are you guys going somewhere?" She implored. Her orifices were drifting between the two.Dominic didn't pester to glance at her as his face wielded nothing. But Thomas on the other hand became sheepish."It's not what you think, Lexi." He, therefore, scratches his neck."Then what is it?" She doubted. She was amassing an eerie sentiment about this.She hadn't been nimble to peek at Dominic properly, visions of that night made her awkward."Dominic is retiring, and unfortunately, the boss of Priests specially invited me to follow Dominic."Alexandra's head whirled. Her gazes promptly found Dominic's, but he wasn't looking in her direction."Ar— are you leaving?"
