The Fates Tell Me My Best Friend's Long Dead Chapter 10
A gentle smile appeared on Eleanor's face as she shook her head. "Rosa, don't cry."She reached out to wipe away my tears, but her fingers could only trace the outline of my face midair. "My body was destroyed long ago, and my soul was sealed away. I should've faded away a long time ago."Using the last of my strength to cling to those coins just now took everything I had left."I've already seen all of you one last time. That's enough for me."Her voice grew softer with every word, fading like a distant whisper. Alexander dropped to his knees, his hands clawing into the dirt until his fingernails split and blood ran down his fingers. "Eleanor… Take me with you…"The ruthless king who had never begged anyone for anything was pleading now, desperation written across his face. "Without you, why does this kingdom matter? What does this crown mean?"Eleanor stepped toward him, her eyes filled with tenderness. "Alex, don't say things like that. You're the king. Your people s

Ignoring Isolde's stunned expression, Eleanor turned toward her eight sons, who were still struggling to hold the formation together. Pride filled her eyes when she saw them still standing in front of her with swords drawn, protecting her despite the tears rolling down their cheeks. "Charles." Her voice was soft, yet somehow carried clearly through the entire chamber."I'm here, Mother!" Charles choked out, wiping the tears from his face. "Change formation with your brothers."Eleanor slowly raised her hand, tracing a path through the air with her fingertips. "Reverse the formation," she said. "Lock down all eight positions—Rest, Life, Wound, Bind, Sight, Death, Fear, and Release."Turn Death into Life. Trap it!"The moment the princes heard Eleanor's command, they seemed to find a strength they hadn't known they possessed. They stopped merely defending themselves. Instead, they scattered in perfect coordination, moving with practiced precision as they surrounded the mass
The Fates Tell Me My Best Friend's Long Dead Chapter 8
A deafening crack of thunder tore through the palace as a bolt of violet lightning came crashing down. Agatha didn't even have time to scream before the searing heat engulfed her. The stench of burning flesh filled the air. And just like that, the old woman who had spent her entire life scheming and manipulating others was reduced to a charred corpse. Her blackened body crumpled to the floor, breaking apart into a heap of ash. After a lifetime of plotting, Agatha had ultimately become nothing more than a human shield. Justice had finally caught up with her. Although Isolde had used Agatha to take the brunt of the attack, the force of the lightning still sent her flying. She slammed hard into one of the palace pillars and spat out a mouthful of black blood. "Rosamund!" she hissed, her hair hanging wildly around her face as her eyes burned with hatred. "You destroyed everything I've worked for. "I'll make sure you all die with me!"Without hesitation, she bit down on h
The Fates Tell Me My Best Friend's Long Dead Chapter 7
A foul stench of blood washed over me. The scaled creature moved with terrifying speed, its razor-sharp claws lunging straight for Elliot's throat. "Elliot!"Charles' eyes nearly bulged with horror. At the critical moment, I forced myself to endure the pain of my throbbing chest wound and pinched one of the coins between my fingers, hurling it forward. With a loud clang, the coin struck the creature's claw with perfect precision, sending a burst of blinding sparks.The force of the impact sent the creature sprawling across the floor, where it let out an enraged roar."Form the ward! Hold the line!" I shouted at the princes. Elliot seized the opening and scrambled back into formation. Forcing down their overwhelming grief, the eight princes quickly shifted into position. Their swords crossed and locked together as they pushed the defensive formation to its limits. The battle strategy Eleanor had devised for them back at Ravenvale had now become their last hope of surviv

Rage consumed me in an instant. The ancient power within me trembled violently, and faint flashes of lightning flickered through my golden eyes."You've got a death wish!"I was just about to form a spell when Isolde, utterly unafraid, took a step back and slipped behind two of the cursed soldiers. "Don't be so hasty," she chided. "The story isn't over yet."She seemed to take great pleasure in savoring the fury on our faces."Rosamund, you can divine every blessing and disaster in this world, yet you never learned how to read people."After Eleanor gave birth to her eighth son, she suffered a severe hemorrhage and became so weak that she couldn't even get out of bed."She glanced at Agatha, a faint smile tugging at the corner of her lips. "It was the Queen Mother herself who brought her a bowl of sleeping draught laced with poison."Charles and the other princes stared at Agatha in disbelief. "Grandmother, you…" Charles' voice trembled. With all eight of her grandsons s

The queen's face turned ashen, and her entire body began to tremble. "Charles, have you all lost your minds?" she cried. "I'm your mother!"Her voice was shrill, every word filled with disbelief and wounded indignation."Rosa has lost her mind, and now you're all following her down the same path? Put those swords away before you hurt yourselves!"Had she put on this loving-mother act an hour ago, she might've fooled everyone. But now, Charles' eyes were bloodshot. His knuckles had gone white around the hilt of his sword, the veins on the back of his hand standing out as he clenched his jaw. "Shut up!" he roared, his voice trembling with rage. "Whenever Mother and Rosa talked about their mentor, they would laugh so hard until they could barely stand."Because the great mentor of Ravenvale, the one revered by everyone in this kingdom, isn't even human!"The third prince, Elliot Wyndham, immediately followed."Their mentor is a fat, greedy orange tabby who was always hungry,"
