A TALE OF DARK LUST EPILOGUE PART 2
ISABELLE’S POV “How do you know that I am a queen?”. I ask her in a loud voice. She is still looking down at something in her hands. “I know everything”. These are the only words she says in her old voice. I was looking at her unable to understand anything when Elise pulled my arm a little. “Belle, I think we should leave”. She says to me close to my ear so that the elderly woman does not listen. Her voice was not above a whisper. “Wait a moment, Elise”. I put my hand on her hand and said to her. I take a few steps toward the table. Suddenly the old woman looked up at me. She is looking at me with her big wrinkled gray eyes. There is something in her eyes that I am unable to understand. She has an indescribable aura around her that screams I know everything. “Hmm… I see”. She looks toward me and says to herself. What does she mean by this? “What do you see?”. I ask her with confusion. She stands up and then takes weak and slow steps towards me. I don’t move back because then sh

ISABELLE’S POV “Lily, where are you? Lily? I am tired now” I call lily as I enter the farm. Warm wind collides my body and I feel hotter. It is so much hot today. The sun is blazing. It seems like fire is reaching the earth in the form of sunlight. Why summers are so hot? I hate summers. I am now angry at myself. Why did I even agree to play with Lily on this hot day? Now I am all sweaty. Complete silence follows me as I continue to call Lily. Where is she? We were playing hide and seek and it was now my turn to find her but it seems like she has disappeared instead of hiding. I have looked for her everywhere but still, she is nowhere to be found. It has been too much time since I have been looking for her. I have checked everywhere. I look towards the sky. The sun is about to set. The sky is covered with a golden yellow hue. It is so much beautiful. Shit! It is going to be dark soon. Mom and dad will be worried about us. I should find Lily as soon as possible. Mom has always said

ERIC’S POVThe royal chef presents the goblet filled with wine. I gesture for him to leave and he bows his head before leaving. I look towards the goblet. It is a silver goblet adorned with different precious and rare stones. I pick the goblet up and take a sip of this wine of Eden. The moment the liquid touched my tongue I felt heavenly bliss. This is my favorite wine because its red color represents victory, my victory. It has always been said that red is the color of victory and that is the reason I like it.I look at the map sprawled in front of me.

ISABELLE’S POV “Wake up! Wake up, Isabelle! Is this time for you to sleep? I will not tolerate this behavior of yours. You are in the palace not in your home”. An angry voice brings me out of my sleep. Who is shouting at me at this time? I open my eyes and wince immediately at the sharp headache that I am feeling. My head feels as if someone has struck it with some heavy thing. I blink my eyes to see clearly because my vision was blurry. I sit up in my bed and upon looking around Lillian’s angry face comes into my view. I put my hand on my head. It is paining so much. Why? “Why are you sleeping at this time? Don’t you know about the rules here? You should have woken hours ago”. She says angrily. I close my eyes at the sharp wave of pain that strikes my head and an involuntary wince escape from my mouth. “Isabelle, what happened? Are you fine? Are you in pain? Did something happen to you?” The angry voice of Lillian suddenly turns into a worried one. What a change of emotions! I op

ISABELLE’S POV I enter the harem and I am surprised to see it. I look from one corner to another. My eyes move toward every single part of it. It is beautifully decorated. It looks like a place from heaven. The addition of candles and rose petals is just adding beauty to it. I have never seen a harem decorated beautifully like this. At festivals, it used to be decorated but not like this. These decorations themselves seem to be from heaven. Different types and colors of flowers are hanging on the walls. Every color of the rainbow is present here. I know all these decorations are only because of the king’s arrival but why have they decorated this place? It is not like the king will straightly come here after coming to the palace. It seems like there is going to be a huge party here. This makes me think, is there really going to be a party here? Will the king attend? I look around me. All the other slaves and maids are busy with the work. Some are decorating the area with flowers whil

ERIC’S POV We enter the boundary of Ash Ville and even from here I can see the citizens of AshVille waiting for my arrival. They are all lined up to welcome me and my army which has never failed in protecting them. If not for the army, then some other kingdom would have destroyed us. People of every age are present here. They all are holding baskets filled with flowers in them. I can see the excited faces of children. They are eager to see the king and the army. “Long live the king”. They all chant loudly when we reach them. They shower flowers on us as we pass through the narrow streets of Ash Ville. I can see that people are scared but happy too. I love to see this fear in their eyes. They all are scared of me and they know I show no mercy but still, they are forced to be happy at my arrival. We continue to move forward toward the magnificent palace. When my palace came into view, a smile crept onto my face. My Belle is there. I have not seen her for such a long time. I cannot wai
A TALE OF DARK LUST 6
ISABELLE’S POV I look towards the door. It is still locked. No one came to open this. I don’t know how much time has passed since I am locked in this room. I don’t understand why Lillian has locked me inside the room. I think the sun must have set by now because I have started to feel cold. The weather is changing and winter is in its initial stages so it is cold at night but days are usually normal. I feel like as winter is approaching the coldness inside me is increasing. There is an unknown thing freezing me from inside. I am feeling like a trapped bird in a cage that has wings but is not allowed to fly. The bird who was once free in the blue skies is now trapped inside the hard walls of the cage. I think soon my wings will be clipped too if things continue to be like this. Is there any purpose in life? Is there any point in living a life like this, the life of a trapped bird? Life is not meant to be like this. It is us people who make it like this. Life should be meaningful an
