“Why is it feeling like I have missed something? But I am not able to recall,” muttered Lily as she looked herself at the mirror while getting ready. “I met Mark last night but I am not able to recall what we did?” Lily muttered as she got from the vanity chair. She carried her satchel from the desk and walked out of the room.
After having her breakfast, she left the house when she saw Lucian who was returning home from a jog. Seeing Lily he waved at her and wished her good morning. “You are leaving so early,” Lucian said as kept walking towards Lily.
“Yes. There is some work to do,” Lily replied.
“Goodness. You work so much. You shall leave then. I won’t take your time,” Lucian proclaimed and got aside of her way when Lily asked him about Mark.
“Is he sleeping?” Lily asked curiously.
“No. He has left in the early morning,” replied Lucian.
“I see. His parents must be calling him,” Lily thought Mark was called by his parents to the home.
“Not
A back car stopped in front of a big castle. Quickly the chauffeur came out of the car and opened the backseat door. Mark stepped out of the car and looked at his front at the huge castle- Castle of Velrenia. Michael too stood beside him.Castle of Velrenia is more like an illusion for humans. There were hundreds of rooms in the castle excluding the Palace offices. The Palace Chief head Brodie Cloy came there and shook hands with Mark, followed by Michael. “It is my pleasure to meet you. Hope you have a safe journey,” Brodie stated as he stepped back.“Yes, the journey was safe. So, where do I have to report?” Mark asked.“To the Punishment Hall. Your punishment will be decided there by the jury,” Brodie replied politely.“It happened years ago. Is the punishment that necessary?” Michael questioned, tried saving Mark from that.“Forgive me but, I am not the one to decide this if Mark should be punished or not. Please this way,” Brodie proclaimed. They s
Ainslee smiled and put the spoon at the plate. Putting her palms one over the other at the table she said, “Mark will not tell me that’s why I am asking you. Why did he save a human? Is it a girl?” She then asked.Michael had stuffed food in his mouth and after chewing it all and gulping it down his throat he said, “Yes, it is a woman and you are right. Mark isn’t going to tell you because you are a gossip queen!” Michael commented at Ainslee.“When did I gossip? If people ask me then I must answer them,” Ainslee proclaimed.“Oh! Really? Let’s not talk about Mark. How is your boyfriend doing? You were heads over heels for him. Did he treat you good?” Michael asked from Ainslee.“He always treated me good,” Ainslee replied. Michael who was drinking water put the glass at the table. “It appears something else to me,” he proclaimed.Ainslee chuckled. “You a
Lily completed the work in the office and was packing her things up when Bella came there. “I am seeing your mood is off since the morning.” Lily gave a tiny smile to Bella. “By the way, did you talk with the guy who is your friend?” Bella asked Lily.“No, I forgot. He isn’t in the city so, I don’t think that I will be able to talk with him out,” Lily proclaimed. Bella gave a nod and then told Lily if she would like to go for drinks with her.“I don’t drink but I can company you,” Lily stated. Bella gave a nod. “John is also accompanying us. Let’s go then,” Bella told Lily.“Let me tell at home first. Mom- dad will wonder where did I go to,” muttered Lily and picked the phone from the desk. She dropped a message to her father and then put the phone in her pocket. Carrying the satchel, she told Bella that they should leave then.Lily was driving the car. Bella was in the passenger seat while John was at the backseat. “Why do you not drink, Lily?” Bella asked c
Marcus was now in the bar in his invisible form. Katie was sitting on the lounge beside Bella and John, her hands were folded. Marcus came to her and asked if she had done the work. Katie agreed. “These two aren’t the issue, the issue is Lily who will be confused by tomorrow,” stated Katie and looked at the ghost who was looking at her.Marcus too looked in the same direction as Lily and found the ghost there who earlier talked with Lily. Katie went to her and asked, “Why did you approach her?”“Because she can see me. I thought she would help me and free my soul from this world,” replied the woman ghost. Katie and Marcus looked at each other.“I will inform the Department of afterlife. They will send someone to take you there,” Katie told the ghost who lowered her eyes. “Someone killed me here. Can’t you find that person and punish him for me?” the ghost requested Katie. Marcus went near her.“We are not allowed to do such things neither we can do anything i
Lily woke up the next morning when she recalled how she saw the ghost there in the washroom. Shiver ran through her spine as she sat up on the bed, thinking about that. She ran her fingers through her hair. “How did I come here?” Lily muttered.She got down the bed and went to the washroom. After freshening up and showering, she got ready for the office and went downstairs. Her father who was reading the newspaper stood up from the couch and went to her.“How are you doing?” Daniel asked Lily.“Good morning, dad. I am good. Dad, how did I reach here?” Lily asked confusedly.“Marcus Scott brought you here. He came a while ago asking if you are awake or not. He told me that you were scared by a cosplayer who was playing the role of a ghost. The cosplayer thought to prank on you and called herself as ghost. You were drunk and got scared of her,” Daniel told Lily.Lily blinked her eyes and laughed. &ldquo
In the evening when Lily left the office, she found Lucian there, waiting for her outside his car. Seeing Lily, Lucian took off the goggles he was wearing and walked to her. Lily too came towards him. Halting a few centimeters away from each other, Lily asked him why he was there.“To pick you up,” asserted Lucian. Lily gave a nod and went to the car. As Lily was wearing the seat belt, Lucian said, “Lily, there is something you must know and for that you have to go with me to some other city.”Lily turned her head and looked at Lucian. “Where?!” Lily asked with an astonishment.“That I cannot tell you now. Let’s go to my house first and then I will tell you,” Lucian asserted and drove the car to his home. Lily was confused thinking what it could be about. Reaching Lucian’s house, Lucian told Lily to make herself comfortable.She sat on the sofa chair while Lucian sat on the other. “Lily, just listen to me and after I will be over you can ask question,”
In the late night Lily, Marcus and Lucian reached the city of Velrenia. Everything there was like Humans but the only difference was the City was of Devils. Lily was scared too because she heard about Devils in the other way. Soon the car, left the main streets of Velrenia and entered the isolated hilly road.After a while, the car halted at the entrance of Palace of Velrenia. Lily looked at the Palace and could not see its end. “Miss Evan, we are here. Please step out of the car,” told Marcus softly. Lily gave a nod and stepped down the car.She looked up to see how huge a Palace could be but it seemed the half of the Palace was covered in clouds up in the sky. “It is an illusion,” Lucian who came beside Lily told her. Lily looked at Lucian with an inquisitiveness.“For humans it is an illusion. I would like to tell you that because you can see us all so, you are able to see everything in Velrenia but for other humans these all thi
Lily laid down on the mattress and stretched her arms out. “So, 6 years ago when he saved me I was right. He had those superpowers but he lied to me as they are not allowed to speak their secret to anyone. Every time I was in trouble, he came to rescue me,” Lily murmured and sat up on the bed.She thought to freshen up and quickly got down the bed. She went to the washroom and her eyes were glistened by just seeing the sight in front of her. There was a bathtub in the middle while at the end there was a shower room. “Is not this like a Royal suite which I see in the Television only?” muttered Lily and stepped forward.On the left side, there was a frame less mirror attracted to the wall while a washbasin counter could be seen there. On the right side, there were cabinets were made. Lily went there and opened the cabinets. She saw white colored towels in one of the cabinets while in the other there were bathroom utilities.&nbs
