*Katrienair's POV**The next morning, I woke up a bit late with a slight pain on my forehead. I felt different. I could not explain why. I knew the others were awake because I could hear their voices. My room was a mess. I tried to recall what happened the night before. I lost Luna, then I found Ethan and then I went to see a soldier. I drank...Oh my... I drank a lot and...How did I get here? I mean home. I remember when I left the castle, it was dark. But...I shook the thoughts out of my head and got my clothes on. When I was done I walked down the stairs. I could hear voices from the living room but on first instinct I went to Ethan's room. I knew he'd not be with them.I knocked on the door and he asked me in."Morning Ethan, I hope your night was good."I sat on the couch."You're just waking up?"I realised my hair was still a mess. I must have forgotten to pack it up."Yeah, I slept in today."I smiled. "I was just too comfortabl

The group was set to leave. Our horses and weapons were already set. While we waited for Ethan to join us, we chit chatted at the living room."I never thought this house could be this good." Jameal said. He has gotten a good bath and his look, stunning. Who would have thought?"I practically imagined it will collapse during the night" Claire laughed."It's been a long time since I slept on a bed." Azazel added. "Feels so surreal"The three laughed and chatted heartily. Julian was in a sullen mood. I don't know why. I haven't had the chance to speak to him since I woke up. It seems like he's avoiding me. That got my mood sour also. I also still feel different. I feel like my head is out of my body or somehow I'm now two. I can't describe it, can't explain it. I wish I could. Ethan's weird attitude backed up with Julian's sulkiness. I knew there was more to worry about."Oh my goodness, I forgot my pearls!" Claire gasped. She hurried up the stairs to get it.

 Just when I asked the question, the others trooped out of the building. Ethan already had an horse with him. "We better get going. It's gonna be a long day."Julian said.I had to get back into the "army head" Spirit."We need to get a wagon. We're getting new legion members for the castle."I said."Did you say wagon?" Ethan questioned. "I have one. I'll go get it."He left. I was proud that he'd become so zealous and useful. My prayer really got answered."Legion members for the castle?"Claire casted me a questioning look."Yes, we'll have to do that today. It's important." I paused remembering how much they hated the demons. "They will be demons so you guys would have to tolerate them for a while.""Are you taking us to the castle? That's not possible you know." Fear was written all over her face."No Claire, relax. I have a safe place to take you guys to." Then I turned to Gabriel. "Gabriel, can you ride by yourself?""

I got back to the spot Julian waited just in time. Most of the new recruits were already asleep. Tsk...they really do not know what they are in for. I was glad anyways, that they were safe."We can leave now."Julian kicked his horse into motion.When we got to the castle, we were surprised to see the king and his guards outside, probably waiting for us. Then I knew something was wrong. I and Julian retreated from our horses and bowed. He just stared at us in solemn silence. The silence spoke a lot. A lot that I understood. It's disheartening, things will get really awry for me. I know that.Julian broke the silence. " We are back father. It was a long journey and we need rest.""Take her!"King Roger ordered his guard. I was disarmed and held by four mighty guards. I didn't struggle with them. It would be a waste of time anyway. I was glad that I didn't take Luna along with me. So I have nothing to worry about.The truth is, I've sensed that something w

"Morning 'Listair, you slept in today for the first time." Emiliar said as she noticed Alistair walk into the kitchen. She had woken early enough to prepare breakfast for the house. Alistair was in her night gown, her hair still messy. It's her usual norm to visit the kitchen first immediately she wakes up. She loved to cook. It's different today because she overslept."Oh Emily, such a darling." A broad smile formed on her face as she noticed that food was almost ready."I'm always a darling."Emiliar winked. "By the way, I didn't want to disturb you. It's strange that you didn't wake as early as usual. You must be very tired."Maybe I was. Alistair murmured. She slept late the night before. She was thinking-- thinking about so many things. Somethings seemed off. She felt like she was losing something. She felt it the night before. She could not stop thinking about her sister. Katrienair is not safe, she knows that. That night, she realized just how much she had to th

"I'm off to bed." Alistair announced.  They just completed the day's training and settled at the living room to rest. "Come on, 'listair. It's still very early."Claire said. "Well, I'm tired" Alistair replied. "Need to rest.""But, I have a scene on my mind and I'd love to watch it today"She dragged Alistair back to her seat. "Let's say the training is over and the it's the Masters turn to fight."Emiliar who had a broken nose, gasped in delight. "Masters huh. I'd also love to watch. Hehe!"Alistair looked puzzled. "What are you guys talking about?""I mean you and master Ethan should try a fight."Alistair pouted. "Maybe some other time." She quickened her pace towards the stairs but Ethan's voice interrupted her."Are you scared of me?" He smirked.Alistair clenched her fist. Scared? What on Earth...!"You know I'm not. I'm not just in the mood.""You should show us Alistair."Emiliar said. Alistair gave her a

** Katrienair's POV **I was hot, caged in a vacuum. A fire burned by my side while I was chained to a metal wall. I knew I instantly where I was. The demons have me now and they can do with me whatever they wish. "You should not be afraid of anything. We are unbeatable..." Alistair's words kept my sanity and fear stood afar away. While death stared at me with it's cold icy blue eyes, all I could think of was Julian. He really is a case. Why did he snub me like that?! He owes me, a big  apology. He made me looks so stupid. How dare he?!I tried to move my neck, a stingling pain stopped me. That pain, so familiar. But what exactly is on my neck?!I scanned the room for any sign of life but there was no one around. Disappointed, I shut my eyelids again and drowned back in my sleep.*"Katrienair!" A familiar voice called out. Slowly, I opened my eyes. Bright green light flushed into my pupils causing me to blink several time before I could put myself together.

" Alistair, may I?"Ethan peeped in through an opening in Alistair's door. He noticed she wasn't sleeping anymore. Alistair could not get enough rest so she retired to studying."Sure" She smiled. Ethan walked in and sat opposite the study table. Time passed stealthily, Alistair's eyes were fixed on the book she was reading while Ethan waited patiently for the right time or let's say, the right words to use to begin his talk. He had longed to speak to her since he saw her. She is Alistair, the Almighty princess. She knows more secrets of the coven than he does. Though there are some she would not know about. She was never a commoner like him. Commoners has some advantage over royalty."You really want to have a talk, don't you?" Alistair got tired of the awkward silence between them."You look so busy. You should take the book away at least." That told Alistair all she needed to know. She has never been a good host. She should have kept the book away."I ... I apo

"Father, please listen to me" Julian pleaded. They've been talking for like hours now and have not come to a common agreement. They might never."You are about to make a grave mistake. She is the chosen one.""You keep spewing that rubbish. I am the chosen one. No one is, except me. I do not and will not believe that damn holy book. It was written by our ancestors who failed. Don't be so naive Julian. You will take this throne after me. You should be ready to compromise laws or books. You should be able to make your own.""Do not kill her today father. I plead on her behalf. She does not deserve death. She accepted our mark,our culture. She's one of us now. You can't just kill for no reason.""Who told you I can't?"Roger smirked. "Ruel!"He called out one of his guard. Ruel walked in and curtsied. "Call an assembly. One person would go down today.""Roger!" Julian yelled in rage. Roger dismissed the guard and faced Julian."Son. Maybe you should te

The others were training in the living room so Alistair decided to use the back door. She ran along the aisle, Luna leaping behind her. She would visit the castle today and no one would stop her. The back door which hasn't been used for centuries creaked on her first touch. She was about to walk out when she felt a hand dragged her back. She tried to struggle but froze in place when she saw who it was. Ethan!"Where are you going miss?" He asked.She flinched from his hold. "None of your business." She spat and headed towards the door but he grabbed her by the waist and held her close to himself. Their faces were just a inch distant from each other and in some way Alistair felt her brain would stop its work if she didn't act fast."Let me be Ethan!"She shrieked. He only held her closer."Huh?"He murmured. "You want to go out. Should I remind you that you are the most wanted in this territory and this is the only safe place you can be huh?"Alistair
