Chapter Twelve – The Price of his Freedom. Evelyn slammed her hands in the table abruptly. Her hands ached as it was a wooden table but her anger subdued her pain. “Stop messing with our brains. Where’s the dead-now-revived boy, huh!” she looked like she’d hit the old man. Lydia looked calm. Sylvester didn’t look threatened at all by her rage, he had the exact words for her. According to him, the acclaimed boy was now a servant of the priest. It was a Buddhist priest, more or less a monk, and the boy was a servant there. To retrieve the boy is only by adoption and a huge amount have to be paid. Margaret listened with anger but it soon fizzled out as she remembered it could be a prank. “If you think it’s a lie, then ask yourself why Han looks like Lydia?” Sylvester ended his explanation with a grin. He expected to see a sense of realization in their eyes but their eyes only emitted hatred. There was a pin drop silence. Lydia clenched her fists, she raised them to hi

Chapter Fourteen – Marry Us.Margaret dragged Scott carelessly across the forest. She was scared as other animals came out from their holes, trees and caves to watch her. She was glad they didn’t attack, even if she didn’t know why. Didn’t Scott only control the wolves? She couldn’t speak or read animal language but with the ‘expressions' of the animals, they looked confused why she was dragging Scott. She calmed down and let him walk on his own. They still stared. “They don’t see humans all the time” Scott explained. Margaret wasn’t satisfied but she pushed the thoughts aside and focused on heading home. By now, Lydia would be making the marriage recitals. No matter how she rebellious she is, she wouldn’t want her sister making a marriage vow without keeping them. “So let’s go over your plan” Scott tapped her shoulders. She turned to him. “I’d tell your Uncle that I want to get married to all of you at once?”. Margaret nodded. “And he’d let me go with you three with

Chapter Sixteen – Dark Dragon. The beds were amazing. As were the caves. Beautifully adorned with shells and stones. And it was looking like they’ve found a new life outside where they are used. Evelyn finally found an alone time with her sister’s with Scott away to get herbs for Lydia’s injury. She made sure he was far gone before starting her meeting. She first started with scolding them for their careless escapades and begging them to keep their adventurous spirit to a low. They were in a protective cavern. They must be a reason Scott was here. It was better if they didn’t leave it just because he told them how to unlock it. For their own safety. When she was sure they understand, she exhaled before starting the main problem in her head. “Margaret!” she started sternly. Marg looked at her with sober eyes. “I know you are excited to be his ‘Luna’ or whatever he called it but don’t get any silly ideas…”. “Luna? He called Lydia, Luna. What does it mean?” Margaret inte

Chapter Eighteen – Her size“None of your business. And you better not have killed the squirrel!” Margaret yelled at Han. He retreated back behind Lydia and Evelyn surprised, slapped Margaret on her shoulders. “What’s with you? Yelling at your brother cos of your silly crush on a wolf man. Why, is it his red hair? Or good looks? Han didn’t kill anything. We brought him from the temple ourselves” Evelyn pointed at Margaret who was looking down at her hands. “Yeah. If any of us had killed any squirrel, it would be you” Lydia added, making both Evelyn and Margaret face her. “Of course, you might have stepped on it with your 90kg size without knowing” Lydia added, rolling her eyes. Margaret eyes twitched, “Are we back on you mocking my size?” she roared. Han came in front of Lydia but she pushed him back. “Truth be said, you need to work on your size. Especially now we are in a forest so you won’t kill lesser animals with that size” Lydia snapped back. “Lydia, can you stop…

Chapter Twenty – Dwarfs in the forest.(At the Cavern) Scott tried his best to explain the threat of the dwarfs but Lydia, for some reasons wasn’t listening. She only spoke of ‘fleeing’. “Lydia, for the one hundredth time, we can’t leave the animals and flee. Scott is responsible for them. And if the dwarfs come to the village?” Margaret countered for the hundredth time. Evelyn whispered to Scott to hold them or they’d have a repeat fight. Han chuckled to that but Scott wasn’t finding anything funny. “Lydia, please, let me put it this way. The dwarfs are after me, I have something they need. They’d come after me wherever I go” he exhaled Her face scrunched, “So, it shouldn’t concern us” she was calmer. “We are his Lunas, we are in this together” Margaret snapped. Evelyn gave her a face but didn’t revolt. Scott looked embarrassed by her remark. He placed his head down and shook his head “What is Luna again?” Han asked, the second time. They all fell silent. “Well, if
