Edward I sat beside her quietly through the night, watching quietly and waiting for my love to wake up. The night stretched endlessly as I sat vigil beside her unconscious form.The dim light in the room cast a gentle glow on Edwina 's features, highlighting the delicate contours of her face. Every breath she took was a reassurance, of her fragile existence. In the silence, the weight of my regrets pressed heavily upon me. I couldn't escape the haunting memories of my wrongs against her, a bunch of mistakes that had led us to this extreme moment. Her tranquility in sleep masked the turmoil she had endured, a reflection of the storm that raged within me. The flickering candlelight mirrored the wavering hope in my heart, desperate for a chance to witness her waking moments. A smile from her would be the antidote to the numbness that gripped my heart, the restoration of a flame quenched by my foolishness. In that quiet, endless night, I vowed to rectify the wrongs, to be the

EdwinaWhy does Edward insist on making this all about him once more? It's as if he revels in the spotlight, basking in the glory that comes with being a king. A foolish king if you ask me!He should have seized the opportunity to eliminate Damien or the witch, If the lory thing is so important to him, he couldn't resist the urge to play the hero once again. He desires to alternate between the roles of the savior and the stern punisher.A twisted game of good cop and bad cop, with me as the unwilling pawn.I don't want any savings anymore. the time for that is passed and he missed it, all I wanted was to die.Is he saving me just for the personal pleasure of enslaving me again?I will not live that life again, in fact, I have no reason to live. it is over because there is nothing and no one to live for.I lost my rage after Edward took me out from Avalor all in the name of saving me.Benita had put herself in the mix too by confronting Damien and she was paying for the price of her st

EdwinaI sat on the floor with Benita's cold body, with no intention of getting up from there.Rebeca continued yelling and seeking attention while I sat down to mourn. I didn't care what would happen to me at that moment.I was looking for an easy way to just leave the world with the people whom I had lost.The guards who surrounded me seemed to have run out of patience, they wanted to dispose of Benita’s body so that we could continue the journey.Two of them came towards me to pull me away but what they didn't know was that I was ready for them.I took out the knife from my tight strap and immediately they walked towards me, I took the knife to my neck immediately.“If you come close to me, I'll take my life, and guess whose life would be taken after your king realizes that you couldn't perform the simple task of keeping me safe?” I threatened and they knew the threat was legit so they stepped back. confused about what to do next.“Don't listen to her she makes an empty threats!” R

EDWINA"Edwina!" Edward called me but I wasn’t willing to hear a thing he would say."Edwina!" I finally caught up to her and grasped her arm, pleading for her to halt. My heart thudded with a mixture of regret and longing."Edwina, please! You can't just go..." I begged; my voice laden with the weight of unspoken emotions."Why, Edward? Please give me one reason why. Because of the ridiculous rumor saying I killed your mother. Because you want me to suffer? Tell me! If you want to punish me, go ahead now! I think I should do it for you."I moved to him so that he could see there was no fear in my eyes as I proceeded to do what I was about to do. He is a coward who didn’t dare to do. He has accused me of killing his parents and conspiring with Damien, he should give me the right sanctions for traitors rather than push me around for his pleasure. Stupid Narcissistic punk.I held the sharp knife tightly in my hands and looked into his eyes with my teary eyes. I don’t even feel sad anymo

EdwinaFollowing the brief moment of emotional outburst, I had produced. The eerie, empty room became silent once more.When I first heard those weird voices, I was terrified, but is there anything to be afraid of? They can't kill me now that I'm dead. These individuals ought to respect me if we are going to dwell here together!"Why do you remain silent? Was there anything I said incorrectly? Oh, you believe that you are the only one who can play with words? Well, I have a lot of reservations about every one of you, so please be respectful when speaking with me!I could only hear my voice now. After I finished speaking, the stillness quickly grew tolerable."You still refuse to speak up? Oh, so what you dish out cannot be taken back? All of you are cowards! I cried out in the hopes of hearing back. At this point, I'll take anything, even if it involves a combative conversation.“Cowards! That is what you all are cow…ards!” “ I spell it out. it was beginning to sound like I was going

EdwinaI was lost in thought after everything my mother and father had just said, accompanied by the mean spirits.I don't want to go back. I want to remain here, and I don't think they can force me."Go back, Edwina!" they chorused, but I hesitated. In the middle of my hesitation, I felt a strong wind blow across me.That's strange! I have no body, so why do I even feel the wind?They are trying to force me out of here."No, Mother, Father, please, don't let me go!" I yelled, but I could hear my voice fading away just as the wind began to take my soul away from the hollow room.Just like that, I could feel everything else, and then I felt my soul return to my body.I could feel the warmth of the earth. I am back. I am back in this wicked world, but why do I feel a change in my heart? A feeling of hatred and disgust for this earth and everything in it.I don't know if it is because I just returned from the spirit world or because of everything that had happened, but whatever the reason

Edwina “She can't travel for now, sire. She needs to be a bit stable before you put her on the road,” the old man explained, but Edward had a disputing look on his face. “So how long will she have to stay in this place? Will this place even be convenient for her recovery?” He asked. “Don’t worry, we will take good care of her, sir. We will give her whatever she needs when she needs it,” the old man tried to convince him, but I was trying my best not to butt into the conversation even though it concerned me greatly. It sounds like Edward has plans of leaving me here with this old man. That would be perfect for now until he finally brings me back to his home. By that time, I would have orchestrated my plan. I will have time to think while I am alone, and when the time is right, I will unleash my wrath upon everyone. “Who told you that I want to leave her alone here with you? I am not going anywhere till she recovers, even if that means you will accommodate me, Edwina, and

EDWARD I am ready to let go of everything. I believe now that Edwina has reasons for everything that she did. I know some of the reasons might be stupid, but I have come close to losing her so many times and if I am not cautious enough, I may lose her one day forever. How will I live with myself rather than knowing that the one thing I have left in this world that drives me is gone? I feel like I have wasted so much time nursing grudges and hate in my life. I can't continue this way. I cannot lose Edwina or come close to losing her anymore when I could have easily avoided it. I asked my men to get workers to fix the house and make it convenient for Edwina to stay here while she is on her road to recovery, and I do not have any plans of leaving her here. I will be with her till she is strong enough to leave but the truth is that I do not know what I would do after that. Will I go back to Galentia and continue the wedding preparation with Rebeca? Will I go ahead and marry s

Damien Edwina always comes through for me and I didn't mean to kill her mother but the did is done. it's one lesser fragile life taken out of the world. I can't wait to dismiss Edwina too but the truth is that she has been useful to me. It is just a matter of time before she brings me the one thing that will destroy Edward for good. I can't wait to finally storm into Galentia and take over the whole kingdom. Edward might feel that he is on the same level with me because he has lycan blood too but the truth is he is nothing like me. Even his father is no match for me. His blood isn't pure Lycan's blood, he has been filtered already so he isn't even an original. There is no logical explanation to show that he can match me in battle. Or am I getting weaker? Perhaps age? No, it makes no sense. I am double the age of little Edward, Where does he even get his strength from? I have the backing of witches with ancient powers behind me so it is not logical. Maybe it's just
