WARNING] This story is not the typical childhood tale where the princess will be saved by her prince, and they will live happily ever after. This tale is about the princess who made her happily ever after- and to do that, she needed to be wicked like her stepmother. ------ "Run!" Snow doesn't have the choice but to follow prince Arthur. She closed her eyes and ran into the dark and dense forest. "Awoo..." Snow's quick run was stopped when a loud howl echoed through the forest. "What should I do? I can't go back...the queen soldier is all over the place and this is the only place they won't dare to go..." she uttered. Although her whole body was trembling, Snow continued her walk but she made a full stop. "Grr..." Snow's eyes widened as the cold sweat broke out on her forehead. " It looks like I can't escape death tonight..."
더 보기Lyca made a fist and looked at the men around her. She isn't sure if she will acknowledge them, but since she doesn't know them, Lyca decides not to. "If you were the black wolf from last night, you already know I don't want to die... But I won't stay here because of that! As I've already said, I have a very important job to do!"
Xavier stopped leaving the house after Lyca said that, but he didn't turn around or say anything. So, she spoke up again. "Also, thanks for being so kind... I'll pay you all back when the time is right. "Xavier said, "Yes," and left the house."Princess, don't be afraid to go back or call for Xavier if you feel like something is wrong with your body. Since he made you, he knows how to make you feel better.""What are these guys doing? I can't believe I'll meet a man like this in my whole life. How can they say crazy things and not feel bad?" Lyca said this as she kept walking.Xavier looks at Snow as she walks away, his worry for her still there."If it bothers you, you can go after her..." Kai said as he patted Xavier on the arm. As the Beta of the group and a close friend of Xavier's, he understands how he thinks.Since what happened to Lyca last night, Xavier has been distraught.He doesn't know why he went crazy last night, but luckily he got himself back together before something worse happened. "Did you notice anything when you moved last night?" As he looked at Kai, Xavier asked.Kai moved his head no, "Nothing, except for you; we didn't see anything out of the ordinary... Also, you said last night that there are people in the forest besides Lyca. Do you think they are working for the princess or trying to get her?"He just shook his head. "I don't know, to be honest. Last night, I smelled someone, but I lost my senses while running, and by the time I came to, it was too late. "He signed his name with despair.Kai couldn't help but sigh when he saw how upset Xavier was. "The moon looked strange last night. I can also feel a mix of dark energy in the air... Could what happened last night have been caused by the evil witch?!"Xavier mutters a curse. "I've given that some thought, but what does the bad witch have to do with Lyca?" He said something and gasped for air, then walked away without thinking."I have to remind you that there is a red moon tonight... So if you don't want to be found, you should stay out of sight..." Kai reminded him when he saw Xavier leave the yard.Xavier gives a hand signal. Xavier will never forget, so Kai doesn't have to tell him. "Lyca can't go anywhere else... In addition to the pain of shifting, there is a high chance of being caught by an evil witch, "He mumbled as he walked in the same direction as Lyca.On the other hand, the six men who were left in the cabin started getting ready for the red moon as well.Except for Xavier, the other five have trouble controlling their wolf when it's time. So, the six must find a quiet place to chain themselves up."Xavier isn't here. Don't tell me he won't come with us tonight!" The youngest of the pack, Kayden, asked. He has the big lock that will be used on him in his hands."Don't worry about the alpha, kid. He can handle himself... You should be worried about yourself since you almost died the last time." Adam, who is the leader of the group, sneers. He is holding his lock, just like the other.The other person laughed and got up to leave. The quiet place is in a cave near their house that is hard to find. Since Xavier isn't there, they have to chain themselves together."This Night is going to be long and hard..." Kai said as he helped the other person."What worries me about Kai is Xavier... Last night he went blank. What if it keeps happening?" Adam said something that made everyone stop talking.Kai signed and stated. "Xavier is good at what he does... Let's just trust him; he is our leader, after all."————-Lyca is walking carefully on the other side of the forest, but she isn't sure if she is on the right path. "...Once I'm out of here, it'll be easy to find Matthew's kingdom," Lyca said to herself to cheer herself up. She didn't know how long she had been walking, but her throat was already dry, and her clothes were wet from sweat.Because of this, Lyca decided to take a break. Right where she was, she heard the sound of water. "Oh, thank god! I will feel better! "She ran after the sound of running water, which made her very happy."What's happening? I can hear the water well, but I can't see it." Lyca said that she was surprised, but she kept walking anyway. More than two hours later, Lyca saw a stream. She said, "Finally!" and got so excited that she forgot her worries and question.Lyca was utterly taken aback by what she saw. "Wow! I didn't know that the dark forest had a beautiful view, or maybe I had already left the dense forest?!" When Lyca saw that this was a chance, she didn't waste time. She went down to the clean stream right away. Lyca was having so much fun that she didn't notice that the sun had gone down.Crickets and other bugs make "eek" and "eek" sounds.Lyca's happy laugh stopped, and so did her breathing. She tried to hear what was going on around her. "What's happening? What sound is that?" Lyca moaned as her eyes grew wide with fear.Lyca got out of the water while putting her hands over her ears. "What's going on with me? What's making all that noise?" She said it in a whisper. The noise Lyca hears gets louder as time goes on. Her heartbeat and fast breathing are also giving her a terrible headache.Then she thinks back to what Xavier said earlier. "Oh my god, is he being honest?" Lyca said when she felt a tightness in her chest.Lyca thinks about what the guy said earlier and starts to shake. "Princess, don't be afraid to go back or call for Xavier if you feel like something is wrong with your body. Since he made you, he knows how to make you feel better."Lyca didn't waste any time. Instead, she yelled as loud as she could. "Xavier!"Lyca moved quickly and attacked her attacker right away by flaring out her elbows. But it was easy to block her attack. Then, Lyca's hands are turned behind her back as she is pushed against the wall. "Shhh..." When Princess Lyca saw who was trying to choke her, she stopped trying to get away. It was Xavier, and she quickly turned around to make sure he wasn't just thinking about something else. "How did you-" But Lyca couldn't keep talking because Xavier covered her mound, pulled her to the edge, and hid behind a thick curtain. When she saw that he wanted her to be quiet, she frowned and looked around the room. She can't see anyone but herself and Xavier, which is why she doesn't understand how he acts. Xavier hissed in Lyca's ears, "Someone is coming." Not long after that, the chamber's door opened. Albert came out of there. Lyca covered her horse, which was still covered by Xavier's hand because she didn't want to make a sound. And the reason she is shocked is that Albert has
As Prince Matthew's troupe marched through the village, everyone was happy. In contrast, the second person is riding his horse with purpose and is looking straight ahead. Xavier and Kai, on the other hand, were behind Matthew, but they were not riding like the prince. Instead, they were walking. "Tell the rest of Knight to wait for the sign..." Xavier spoke quietly. The most important thing is to save Lyca, and the other knights will make sure the path is safe. Kai nodded. "Don't worry, Jaxson is in charge of the knights. He makes sure the path is safe..." After signing, Xavier looked at Matthew. Even though he knew the prince would keep his promise, he couldn't stop worrying. Because Lyca's safety is at stake here... ——— Everyone in the castle, especially Lyca, is busy getting ready to welcome the troops. One of Lyca's servants said, "Princess, everything is ready, so it's time for you to take care of yourself." Lyca gave a smile and a nod. "I'm not going to the party, so the
Lyca POV.As my body falls to the floor, I catch my breath. "I was almost seen by Albert! What does he plan to do next?" I couldn't believe what I heard.Then I got up and went to bed, where I laid down. I went back to the time when I was able to get away from Wesley.I got to see how the place for the ritual was set up, and I also saw Albert. "I don't know what's wrong with him, but something is..." I say when I see Albert's face in my mind. He is in a lot of pain as he twists and turns on the ground.I wanted to get closer to see what was going on, but Albert could tell I was there, so I had to leave."Well, if Albert is sick, I'll be happy..." I mumble, and then I go to bed.———I got up early the next day. Since the Queen has told me to put together a welcome party, I have no choice but to do so.The Queen told me to make all the decisions, so I chose to hold the banquet in the central tower of the kingdom, which was close to her bedroom."Are you sure about this, Princess?" Someo
Lyca takes this chance to ask the old woman in the cage what the queen's secret is. She learned almost everything in exchange for food and drink."You mean the queen gives up her heart so she can be in charge? Can that even happen?" Lyca says this in fear.The woman replied, "You should know by now that nothing is impossible in the world we live in."(She's correct... It shouldn't surprise me because I've been having a lot of phenomenal things happen to me in the last few weeks.)"Do you know where her heart is, then? Since that is the Queen's weakness, I'm sure she is hiding it..." Lyca answered as she moved back and forth.The woman gave a half-smile. "I've been a prisoner for ten years, so how would I know?"Lyca frowned, but she didn't push her point. She has known for a few days what the woman thinks.After talking to the woman for a few minutes, Lyca will leave, but before she does, she will quietly check on Adam. So far, the guy hasn't been willing to talk, so she has no choice
"So you think I'm a monster? Who, out of the two of us, is torturing the people? Blood on my hand is nothing compared to the blood that has been spilled because of you."Before Matthew and King Alexander move forward, they look at each other."I did not make my people suffer! I did everything I did for them." The strong arguments of King Matthew."The people should serve the king, not the other way around!" Xavier came out of the dark and looked at the king with deep thought. The king's earlier comments about him and his father have left him speechless.Matthew put the sword in front of Xavier's face. "How dare you go into the king's room without being invited! Do you want to die?!"Matthew hasn't felt scared of Xavier since the first time he saw him. But this was the opposite of how the king felt about it. He looked frightened right away, and the hands that held the sword shook."How did you get into the castle without being seen?!" The king's words were hard to understand.Matthew w
In the castle of Nightingale, many bodies were lying and bleeding. However, only a few died because Xavier made every effort to keep casualties to a minimum in this battle. "The other soldiers who gave up have been taken into custody..." Kai informed Xavier. The second one is in the king's room, looking at the records. "Good," Xavier said with a frown. "Take care of their wounds and meet all their needs." He was reading a list of the taxes that the people had to pay. "What do you plan to do with the kingdom now that you've taken it back?" "Only the castle can be taken back. If I want to take back the throne, I need the soldiers and the people to back me up..." "Can that happen? They have never met you..." "Well, that's why I'm going to tell them who I am. I'll give them what they've asked for for a long time..." Kai doesn't ask about Xavier's plan because he is more intelligent than most people. He has no choice but to do what he says. The soldiers who stayed loyal to Xavier w
