**It's been an hour since Jasmine has been trying to learn all the spells. She was losing hope but Jabal was there to encourage her. "I trust you, Jas. I know you can do it. I will say the spell again". Jasmine nodded. "El mi ris aa nil ee"Jasmine held her head and screamed. She was beginning to feel hot. Jabal rushed to her. She slumped to the ground before he could hold her. He raised her. "Jas. Jasmine. Jas". He patted her cheeks. "Hey. Open your eyes. Jas. Come on, open your eyes". She gave no response and he became afraid. He could see blood coming out of her mouth. "Ariana!!!" He yelled. "Jamal!!!"They rushed to him. "What happened?. What happened to her?" Jamal asked"S-she screamed and slumped"Ariana sighed. "She will be fine. She just needed rest". She had checked her pulse and was happy she was still alive. She knew Jasmine had fainted because of the stress. "Jabal put her on the couch. She will be up in few minutes"Jabal nodded. He lifted Jasm

Ariana and Jabal went to the room Ariana shared with Jasmine. Jabal closed the door behind him. "You want us to talk?" Ariana askedJabal nodded and walked to the bed. He sat down. "Yes. It's about Jasmine"Ariana furrowed his brows. "Jasmine?. What did she do?"Jabal sighed. "Nothing. I am just concerned about her. The hate she has towards Ryan is so strong she might hurt herself while trying to hurt him"Ariana sighed. "I know but what can we do. I feel for Jasmine. I don't want her to lose control. Though I understand she doesn't want to trust Ryan but I think she's taking it too far"Jabal nodded in agreement. "Yes. But do you think her distrust is healthy?""If it's towards Ryan alone. And she does not do anything funny or hurtful to herself or anyone. I think it's healthy. But if she does hurt herself in the process it becomes unhealthy"Jabal sighed. "So I shouldn't bother much?""For now, I think you should not bother. Jasmine will be fine"

They entered the woods of Almarina. After walking for a while, they could see the village a distance away. Ryan pointed. "That's the village over there. But we will have to go over this place to get to where Rose lives"Jasmine furrowed her brows. "Why do we have to go through that place?. Can't we just go through the village instead?"Ryan shook his head. "Nah. We can't afford to draw the villagers' attention. It's a small village, you know. Most of the villagers know each other. They will surely find out we are strangers"Jasmine sighed. "If that's the case, we should go over that place then". They all followed the crooked path and after a while, they got to the end of the village. Jasmine smiled. "You're right, Ryan. The village is really small". Ryan smiled. That was the first time Jasmine would ever agree to what he said. "So, what is the next step?" Jasmine asked."We all know the plan right?". Ryan asked and they nodded. "Should we try out plan A or just go th

They returned to join the rest who were curious to know why they had taken long. "You guys took so long," Jabal saidJasmine sighed. "It's for the better"Ryan rolled his eyes. "What's the plan?""We find a place to stay while we make out plans to attack" Ariana spoke up"And then what next?" Ryan asked"When we get to a safe place we can think of what next" Jasmine answeredRyan sighed. He could feel Jasmine and Ariana were hiding something from them. Or maybe they were hiding something from him and to prevent him from becoming suspicious, they had to keep it from the rest. He needed to know what they are hiding and why they had decided to hide it from him. Though he knows that they are yet to trust him, due to what had happened in the past but haven't he earned their trust?. Even if it's little?. Haven't he risked his life to go into the lion's den?. When he said the lion's den, he meant Rose's territory. He risked his life going in there to keep Rose

DRAGON TERRITORYEveryone in the dragon clans has been busy preparing for the great fight. The fight between the world and Rose. Though it doesn't seem like all the world was against her, it was better to consider it a war of the word against her since most of the people are not happy with her reign. Everyone tried as much as they can to contribute a quarter. The children were not left out as those between the age of twelve to eighteen were at the training ground to offer their help. Those below twelve were close by to help with the cleaning of the armors. No one wanted to be left behind. Those women that could fight were at the training ground also, showing their loyalty.While those with babies were busy preparing food for those at the training ground. In as much as the battle wasn't for the dragon clans as it was for the witches, wizards, and the werewolves, the dragons wanted a peaceful world where their children can visit other realms without fear. They wanted a bette
