Zane could feel the eyes of everyone in the throne room, on him."What does she mean Zane?",asked Derek, he took Zane's hand. "And why are you so nervous?""Don't be so intrusive Derek!",shouted Zane, withdrawing his hand.Kendra seated herself on the throne as Zane threw a disgusted look at her."Tell us",said Kendra. "You are hiding many things. Tell us and you'll be free of that burden Zane, it's never good to lie to your friends""I will tell them when the time is right! You didn't have to poke your nose here in this matter!",shouted Zane"Careful with your tone",said a guard, gripping his sword tightly."Zane",said Kendra, much gently. "Tell us what you are hiding and be free of your burden"Zane looked at the queen and his body went numb, his senses tingled and he said,"Ofcourse.... ofcourse I will say whatever I am hiding!""Then tell us""Look, I was hiding that ...that I am natural swordsman. If I am given a sword I can do miracles with it",said Zane, still in a sluggish tone

Everyone was going upstairs, back to their rooms. They were full , especially Zane who had overeaten just so he could avoid being questioned by Kendra. But she didn't give Zane a free pass. She questioned everybody about their identity, Zane, Natalie and Laurel had to lie and Mick partly lied. And Zane thought Scarlett was the one who was most relaxed because she wouldn't have to reveal her powers or any such thing. But instead, Scarlett was the one most agitated among them. She was scared, although she tried very hard to hide it. She was scared that any moments the queen could order her guards to execute her. But she put a brave face on and pretended everything was fine. And when Kendra questioned her about her identity she went " I am Scarlett Olivia and I am a normal human. Also, my father usually stays out of town for business and my mother died when I was young. My father remarried . The women is utterly horrible and she has three kids with my dad....So, naturally they are the

Zane banged the door of Laurel's room, shut and walked back towards his own room.Natalie was wandering in the corridor and tapping her feet in a rythmic fashion. "Hey!",she said, as soon as her eyes located him. "Hi",he replied, disheartily"Looks like someone has been having a bad morning""Yeah you could say that""What happened?",asked Natalie"Nothing much", replied Zane , looking here and there."It's full moon tonight",said Natalie"What?! I - I almost forgot!""Yeah I know, so, are you planning on telling anyone?" "Telling anyone what?""That....that we are werewolves""I don't know""Come on Zane! After everything we've been through together, atleast our friends deserve to know the truth!""I...I just don't know if I can trust them!""Fine! Then trust me!",said Natalie,"Because I trust them!"Zane sighed but said nothing. "Okay, if you excuse me please"Zane walked away from her.Natalie looked after Zane with concern-filled eyes."Where are you going?",she asked"To clea

"Wait.....did you just say Forest of Deception?",asked Zane"Yeah", replied the woman"But.....in our realm....I mean from where we all come from, Earth. This forest of deception is there too!""Yes, it's everywhere. This....this forest has a long history of death, deception. And......a part of this forest is in every realm. You must be aware that there are 7 realms. Technically there were 8 realms Earth, Helmfirth, Erstonia, Ebraxas, Craburn, Icosall, Byrandan, Pamlivam but, Ebraxas was........ destroyed so now, there are only 7 realms""Wait, you know about Byrandan?",asked Zane curiously"Well yes.......",said the woman. "The kings and queens of every realm have a treaty. The realms have a treaty never to wage war against each other. Queen Isabella always hated the treaty, she's the queen from Erstonia and she hates Queen Kendra. She's always wanted to attack Helmfirth but.....you know, the treaty kept her from doing it""And now?", asked Natalie. "Well, you see..... Pamlivam was

"Will you just calm down?",said Natalie in a low voice. "You were the one who asked me to tie you up in the first place""Good, now I'm asking you to let me go", shouted Zane."I'm sorry, I can't.... you'll only hurt yourself or others""Don't do this Natalie. Please.....please just....just let me go!",said Zane, now crying."The manipulation won't work Zane. All tbe werewolves are blood hungry on the night of full moon. You are, too. Once I let you go, you're only going to hurt someone",said Natalie"No! No! I won't! I promise! Okay? You let me go and I won't hurt anyone!",pleaded Zane"You don't know what you're talking about", said Natalie. "Only a couple of hours more and you'll return back to normal""This is normal!",roared ZaneNatalie didn't reply, she just sat there looking out of the window and occasionally humming songs.Zane resisted a lot. Natalie didn't pay attention to him. She knew that Zane was under the influence of the full moon. He wasn't himself and it would be un
