Macie's P.O.V
‘Ding dong’ the doorbell rang.
‘Shit, who’s that?’ paranoia started.
‘I need to chill, I did not do anything bad to anyone, and neither did I sleep with someone’s daughter lately’
‘Ding dong’ it rang again.
‘Ding dong, ding dong’
“What?” It was not pleasing anymore. I was angry and frustrated.
The encounter with the Johns did do a number on me!
‘Ding dong’ it rang again.
“Ok! I'm coming, I'm coming. Jeez chill you tits whoever you are.” I made my way to the door.
I had been up relieving the moments of my encounters with the Johns. They were acting weird. And the running part, it really outdid me well. I was so paranoid I was waiting, I don’t know for what or who but I was.
“Why were they running? What if they are wanted fugitives?” I was starting to get really frustrated.
‘Ding dong’
“What!” I panicked shouted.
‘Again? Who
REDLAND: NINE MONTHS AGO Sebastian's P.O.V “Sebastian, Sebastian the king summons your presence” a maddening loud voice woke me. ‘That must be Carlos’ “Wake up chief” he pried. “Carlos it's...” there was so much noise as I tried to wake up. “Why the noise?” I turned rubbing my hurting red eyes, only to be met by a formally dressed Carlos. I stared at him up and down. He was dressed in his royal guard occasional robes. “Why are you all dressed up, did I miss something yesterday?” I was conflicted. “We have visitors” he blurted like it was no surprise. “Who?” I was suddenly intrigued by the new information. It had never happened that people would visit the palace without us knowing. It was our duty to know, to prepare for their visits and welcome them. “The Royals” he said it like he was about to squirm. “Why?” I asked a question like Ca
IN THE KINGDOM, TEN HOURS AGO (King’s Chamber) No one’s P.O.V“Gideon, Gideon. Hear my name, follow my voice. I summon your presence”There was a loud muscular horsy voice shattering the walls of the castle. The walls had started cracking, but it seemed the cracks and the vibrations were heard only in the bedroom. There was no movement outside the king’s room.“My Lord! I am your humble servant.” Gideon purred like a hungry cat seeing its master, kneeling in front of the unknown figure.“It has been years since the prophecy was revealed. In the birth of the child’s parents and now that the child has grown. It cannot be repeated twice and not mean anything. You seem to not wonder, this are hinders that are yet to reveal their wings, and we have to clip them before they learning to fly. I cannot be undone by a mere mortal. I am the god to come, the god that all w
Sebastian’s P.O.V: The visitors “Answer, where did the king disappear to? His cowardice is not foreign to me” a man wearing a green robe spoke venomly eying me up and down. “I demand his presence. His oddity is farfetched, it is rather childish of a man his standards. I am more like his king when I am here and he is not even here. Such a disgrace” He stood angrily like he was waiting for us to action. Realizing we were unmoving, he yelled in a harsh powerful voice as he reached Philemon’s neck with his right hand. He lifted him up, dangling him like an empty sack. “I gave you an order…” he did not finish his sentence as he tossed Philemon at the far end of the kings meeting chamber, clearly showing his wrath making all of us squirm in fear. “My Lord, he has travelled to find Luca for himself” one of the men sent by the Lordships blurted out shockingly. ‘The king knew about this and he did not alert us. Why would he hav
No one’s P.O.V: eON years ago The city of Gods had been peaceful for millennia. Their life was filled with gold, literal gold. All the lands of the city were made with gold and greenery. It was a place of paradise where people, well gods and their keens with the city’s people could live in harmony. All was beautiful and quite.The king had ruled for centuries, it was time he stepped down. He was descending to the afterlife to the other kings. It was believed that when the king descended he went to join the other kings in the other world, a world where their creator existed and lived amongst them in harmony. Everyone in the city was said to descend to the gods when they died, no matter how small they lived in the city, in the afterlife they would become equals. All kings in the city lived in harmony. Their father Gothroan had three sons, and eight daughters. It was said he was privileged with children. The three sons loved each other, they
“Esmeralda, grace us with your truth, what did our brother here, the king to be, do to you last fall. Speak with truth, you are in front of the high king after all” Nicolus stated venomously, quoting the king tittle sarcastically making the king turn to him in utter shock. “He....he laid with me, but did not force himself on me….and you….” “See father, I told you long before, that he was not worthy of your status” “Be still Nicolas. Son, tell me this news is not factual!” the high king stood up and approached Marcus and cupped his face with sadness awaiting his reply. “Father, I will not lie to you…..this is the lady my heart…..” “You see father, so unworthy, he lays with servants, a king to be. Guards tell the people of Nubi we are to begin our coronation, but there may be changes” “My son, Nicolas you are too hasty to make decisions, which is why your brother is to be king……Marcus my son…..” ‘Bang……..thud’ The high ki
Maya’s P.O.V The anticipation was killing me. The suspense. ‘Could all be real? Could they be separating?...but why would my mother bring a stranger to our home? No matter how much she wanted to move on, or hate my father, she would never allow such a situation. She’d rather just sneak around. What if he is here as a distraction?’ “Ahem!” Sebastian woke me from my train of thought. “So, you are saying my father is what dead, and my mother lives with a man I know nothing off, sharing the same bedroom. So you are telling me that they are sharing my father’s bed, in my father’s chambers? You are really not taking this situation, me seriously!” I was beginning to fume. My anger was on the highest scale known to mankind although, I could tell it didn’t phase Sebastian. He was busy fidgeting with his fingers. He looked really worried and serious. I turned around frustrated and turned back looking at him, studying him. He just shook his head side to side with a discontent face. “Agh! S
Melisa’s P.O.V“I'm worried. Who was that girl in our son’s room?”“Michael I'm talking to you” I repeated, he seemed to be lost.“I don't know” He shrugged his shoulders going to our son’s dresser.“Maybe we can find something that can tell us who she really is, and how she knows our son” He continued rummaging through his drawers.“Enough!....” it was too overwhelming.“I can't take this anymore”“I don't know what's going on too” Michael exclaimed embracing me.“Why do I feel so empty inside?” A question I didn't see coming pondered my mind making me jittery.We had been sitting on the sofa for what felt like forever. I looked at Michael, he wasn't the best husband, but he was there for me. I shook my head and stood up, and left for my room. I didn't know why but I felt really
THE NEXT DAY The next day felt different. Hopeful, so to say. We had been sitting in the lunch tables for what felt like forever. My eyes were scanning each and every one, taking in information. I was a good listener, just a weird one. No one noticed, but I could focus on so many things at a time. I was deep into multitasking. “Yo, you good, you look dead tired, like you haven't slept for days?” Suddenly I was taken by that simple act. It seemed she noticed how I would zone off from time to time. ‘Why is she nice to me?’ “Dude, you are my friend now, for better or worse” she shocked me more, like she read my mind. ‘She looks genuine enough to trust her...’ TWO YEARS LATER “Hey…..you know you do that a lot” “What?” I acted oblivious. Cie just shrugged her shoulders and started walking. It had been two years since I’ve known her, and she still asks what’s bothering me, every time I go silent. ‘I think it’s about time I tell her everything’ ‘Are you sure?’ my conscious barge
