Hello lovelies!

So how has your day been so far? Hope it's as good as mine.

Firstly, I want to apologise for every error in this book so far (typographical) and my late updates. I'm really trying my best with the errors and concerning the updates, like I said before; just stick with me. Imma finish this book for real now.

Also I would also implore you to go back and take a look at my casts. I changed some of them yesterday.

Again, a big thank you to all my readers. Yes, even the silent ones. I really appreciate you guys for reading (and voting) so God bless you!.

Here's the chapter. 

♤♤♤♤♤

Screams and despair 

The burning idea of what is to come

I can taste my fear

Fresh and nauseating on my tongue 

And although the danger's here

We still found a feeling called love

SWEAT TRICKLED DOWN my body as I sat on my bed gasping for air. It was a few minutes after our conversation with the Prince that I decided to get some sleep. However the dream I just had doesn't make me feel so excited about going to sleep again.

One thing I could tell from that dream; fire. It was everywhere. I heard many voices but one in particular stood out. A woman whose voice filled me with jolts of fear. Someone said her name, pleaded with her to stop. I saw the Prince. He looked bloody and exhausted, kneeling in front of the woman and begging her to stop.

"Lu***** stop this madness I beg of you" I couldn't really remember the name he said but I was certain it started with " Lu ". 

I was snapped out of my thoughts when my sister walked into the room holding two boxes. Not just any box, our travelling box back from the house. I mean Mrs hale's home. How did she get those?

"Oh look. Sleeping beauty is finally awake . I was really considering calling the Prince to kiss you back to life seeing that we have an actual Prince within these walls "

I rolled my eyes at my overdramatic sister before walking over to where she stood with the boxes.

"How did you get these?"

"Oh you know. I just ran out of the castle, back to the house, packed all our things and came back in a jiffy"

"C'mon Kellyn."

"I talked to the Prince dummy. Now hurry up and take a shower. It's almost two" she said practically shoving me into the bathroom. 

The extravagant bathroom was breathtaking. Why in the world would there be a chandelier in a bathroom?.

The tiles were a mixture of black and grey and the large circular bathtub seemed a mile away from the door. Okay i was just kidding but you get the idea. I walked in, pulling off the maid's clothe and standing in front of the mirror. I loosened my back lenght brown hair which I tied in a bun earlier. 

Now standing in front of the mirror in just my bra and panties, I could see how thin I really looked. At this size, I could pass for a 17 year old and I'm about clocking twenty. 

"You done?" I heard my sister holler from the room.

"Almost" I jumped into the bathtub and hastily washed myself clean with the expensive washsoaps in the bathroom. No seriously,they smell heavenly. I went back into the room and put on my blue jeans and black hoodie that has naruto characters on it. 

Do not blame me okay! I love anime.

I twiddled with my fingers while my sister brushed my hair lovingly. This girl had more than one caring bone in her chubby body but I couldn't blame her. She is afterall the oldest twin. 

"Your hair's glowing again" she said nonchalantly, still brushing the hair. My hair glows from time to time. This happens every once in a while ever since my seventeenth birthday. We never understood what it meant and fortunately, it always stopped glowing after a few seconds so nobody really noticed it.

A knock on the door broke my train of thoughts and I stood up unsteadily. Cal came into the room after a few short seconds and bowed politely. Although I could see the anger in his eyes and the constant ticking of his hard jaw. He was probably forced to do this.

"This way"

We didn't need to be told twice. We took many twists and turns, I could've sworn we were turning in circles. My head already felt dizzy. This place is a fucking maze. 

Cal opened the door to the office and we trudged in obediently. After looking round the office, I concluded that everything in this palace was extravagant. Maybe i should've given him the gift i bought for Evelyn?

My eyes finally settled on the form of the Prince in all his muscled glory. He definitely gave off the badass vibe. Looking into his eyes, they seemed cold and distant, like a lifeless person or better still a robot. His eyes were now a dull green color compared to when we first met him.

"What is your name?" I suddenly blurted and from the corner of my eye I saw my sister wink at me not so subtly. Again. This girl.

"Have a seat. Cal, have the maids bring them soup." His cool voice rang in my head and for some reason i felt drawn to it and suddenly a rusty memory flashed in my head. A young boy around seven years. Green eyes, brown hair.

"One day we will be bestest of friends. We'll even be like mama and papa" The boy smiled happily. Displaying a missing tooth

"Yes" A cheery voice agreed. It was the voice of a girl but in this vision, I couldn't see the girl who replied. 

Pulled back to reality, my hands flew to my head as I could feel a migraine coming on.

What was that?

Nobody seemed to realize that I had blanked out completely. My sister was absent mindedly looking around the office while the Prince was still staring ahead as if in a trance. 

"I asked you what your name is"

"I told you to sit down" He said in a voice full of authority. I almost cowered behind my sister. 

Well fine!

I pulled my sister to the chair in front of his table and sat down beside her like an obedient dog. Except my tongue wasn't hanging out.

"What is your-" 

Just then, two maids came in. Each holding a tray that sat on top of it, a bowl of hot soup. I saw the look they had in their eyes. One of awe and pure admiration. 

"You're excused" The Prince said referring to the maids and cal who nodded in understanding.

"What is your-"

"Corey" He said indignantly. "Corey Adams. Descendant of zion, strong connection to wind and water. King of one of the strongest kingdoms of the three realms ruled by the sun goddess"

Huh? 

"Corey huh. I admire your sense of humour."

"Eat up. We have a lot to discuss"

Five spoons into the soup, I was already full. No doubt, Kellyn had eaten more than half of hers.

"Eat" That was the Prince. I didn't even notice he was staring at me.

"I'm full"

"Eat more. You look sickly thin" He ordered with a scowl.

Okay ouch! He was right though 

"You watch how you talk to my sister,Prince"

He released a low grunt but didn't insist I eat anymore.

"You can start with your questions " He said going back to his distant self 

"You said there are three realms. Is earth part of these realms?" Kellyn was the first person to fire.

"There are seven realms in total. The sun goddess rules three of them and the other four have respective rulers. The sun goddess as well as the other goddesses have special abilities given to them by the ultimate God who is the creator of all realms. Earth is part of the realms the sun goddess rules"

"Okay let me get this straight. You're the king of one of the realms ruled by this sun goddess?" I asked and he nodded positively. 

"I'm assuming these parts do not use gadgets such as phones, internet, cars?"

"Those things are only found on earth which is the only realm with powerless beings. I have been to earth several times as I have businesses there. My realm has dominion over two main elements; water and wind. We are also blessed with the ability to teleport and communicate without words hence we have no use of such earthly gadgets."

"You mean you have powers like us?" I asked excitedly.

"Yes indeed. You both are not earthly beings. You were taken to earth for...special purposes and the sun goddess has entrusted me to bring you back to fulfill your destinies"

"After that can we go back to earth?" Kellyn asked.

"I leave that to you. But right now the three realms are in danger and you both haven't even mastered your powers "

"You keep talking about this sun goddess, if she is so powerful why can't she save her realms? What do we have to do with this?" This was me.

He narrowed his eyes on me looking me up and down. I suddenly felt self conscious.

Naruto! Jump out of this damn hoodie and blind this dude!

Okay that was stupid.

"Escalia was a very powerful woman but ever since she put to bed, her powers have weakened because she wasn't just giving birth to one but two. Over the years, she has been poisoned continuously by an unknown person who is trying to overthrow her. Goddesses are not immortal, only the one who created them has immortality"

"Maybe you should try contacting her children. They'll be way better for this job" Kellyn said.

"I have done just that".

Everything clicked into place. We are Escalia's children?
