“Are you okay? Did he hurt you?” Rose asked.I shook my head. “I fell. I was dizzy and hit my head on the ground,” I explained. “I could not get out of the bed without feeling dizzy for two whole days.”“Demian looked angry that night,” she said.“He was angry,” I said. Demian went out last night. He said he would be back in two days. I did not know whether he was watching me now. We were in the garden, so it was possible he was somewhere with his eyes on us. Honestly, I did not care. It was not like he could hear us from afar.“He did not hurt you? Truly?”Well, he fucked me like a caveman. But I could not say that to his sister.“He did not,” I assured her.“That’s good. Well, I wanted to tell you that tonight is the time.”“What?” I was shocked. “Tonight is the time for what?”“For leaving. We are leaving tonight,” she said.“Wait, tonight? Rose, we will get caught. It’s too soon,” I said.“Father will leave this afternoon for some work with most of the men here. He is going to rui

The night was starry and chilly. I could watch the night sky for a long time without getting bored. Sometimes, Leo and I used to sit on the roof of the academy and stare at the night sky after Maxi’s death. None of us were religious, so we could not look for her in the stars. At that moment, both of us wished that we believed in God, so we could console ourselves with the belief that Maxi was in a better place.“After death, there is nothing,” Leo had told me, as she lay down together on the roof. We were not supposed to be there. “You and I, we all would just die and there would be nothing after that. Nothing better, nothing worse. We would not even feel anything. We would not suffer for the so-called sins we committed. Murderers, rapists- they would face nothing.”For that, we both believed that rapists should be tortured until they begged for death.Tonight reminded me of those nights. And some other nights, when we would go to Owl to sell our potions. It was something we were not

Sully had not woken up yet. I was worried about her, although Rose told me repeatedly that there was nothing to worry about.It had been one day since we departed the port. I was not as worried as before.House Star was not that far from House Silverclaw. But we were first going to Yelenad where Sully’s mother was born and raised. From Yelenad, we would go come back to this kingdom, just through a different way. No one would expect us to do it, at least, that was what Rose said. But what if someone thought like her?“I didn’t know Demian was nice to her. I mean, she said so before, but I always thought she was lying. Do you think she might have something wrong with her like those girls who stay with the men who hurt them?” Rose asked. We rarely went out of our cabins. If we had to talk, we would go to each other’s cabins. Mostly, we met up in Sully’s cabin. According to Rose, it was better to stay inside so no one could see our face. Our food was delivered to our cabins, so we did not

She was gone. Sully was gone.“How did she escape? And where the fuck is Rose?” Father yelled. I returned before Father. For some reason, I had a bad feeling about that night. When I returned, I discovered my wife gone. Then, I found out that even Rose was mission. So was the alchemist and Sully’s friend Leo.“That alchemist and your wife were having an affair,” Luke told me. “They left and took Rose with them. They left a note as well.”I had read that note. I suspected it was Rose who wrote that note. Rose could mimic the handwriting of others.The note read that if we hunted them, they would kill Rose.But the fact was that Luke was lying. Perhaps he was on in the plan. What I did not understand was why Rose and Luke would even be on this plan and why Rose left with them.“Find them!” Father yelled at his men. “Find all of them! I will teach that girl a lesson!”“Father, she is my wife. I can take care of her,” I said.“No. Not you. She needs to see what it is like to escape from A

I was still not pregnant. We had been trying a lot, but it was to no avail. Something was wrong with me for sure.Rezef did not say anything, but I knew he was disappointed. I could see it in the look of his eyes. He looked at me like I was a disappointment. He must want Sully. He must compare me with her.A few days ago, the news spread that Sully escaped. Rezef must be happy to have Sully back. He might even want to marry her once she was back, casting me aside like everyone.I did not hate my half-sister. As a matter of fact, I was glad that she escaped from those demons. I wished her safe return. But I hoped she would not try to take my place away.No, Sully was not like that. She would not do it.‘But do you? Do you truly know her? Can you see what goes on in the deepest part of her head? Can you hear her thoughts? What if she wants to steal your husband? What if she wants to take back what’s hers? After all, you are a replacement only. If the original comes back, you will be cas
