41. Goodbye

~Zella~I'm sure he would be furious. He's not going to take it lightly. My sister's life is truly in danger and there's nothing I can do to protect her. Wait a minute...Why is Alpha Declan not back yet from his meeting with his father? I want to talk to him before I leave his house. If I can convince him to accept my plan, I won't have to follow my sister's orders anymore.I glanced at the main door of the house. Where are you Alpha Declan? Please come back soon! I pray fervently.Maya and another woman come down the stairs, carrying two bags each, the baby's clothes, probably."Luna, this is Amy. She is the baby's nanny," Maya introduced the woman to me."I'm happy to assist you in taking care of baby Dennis, Luna," Amy said, bowing her head in a sign of respect for me.I smiled. "Nice meeting you Amy.""Luna, please come with me upstairs. Luna Venus wants to talk to you in private about baby Dennis," Maya said."OK," I responded excitedly. We climbed the stairs and arrived at my s

42. What's Happening?

~Zella~I looked outside the window, trying to say goodbye to Zion temporarily. I shall return here to search for him if my sister's problem is already sorted out.I fell into deep silence, as I dealt with my chaotic emotion.I noticed that we were getting closer to the massive iron gate of the palace. There are a few carriages ahead of us. They seemed not to be moving at all.What's going on? Hmm, looks like they were held for inspection before they were allowed to leave the palace gate. Looks normal to me, palace rules I guess.But the carriages are not moving at all and the iron gate is not opening up for anyone to pass. Something is going on!Our driver got off and asked me what to do. "Luna, shall I inquire about what's going on?" He asked for my permission."Yes please. We will wait here," I said.I watched the driver walk ahead.Suddenly I felt anxious. A twisted feeling in my stomach.The driver returned and said, "Luna, we have to wait for a long time if we want to pass the g

~Zella~When I reached the room, baby Dennis was crying and Amy was panicking. They had difficulty breathing. I quickly pressed the dried leaves into my nephew’s nose, and he stopped crying. I handed the other two to Amy. "Press it on your nose!” I commanded. She obeyed and started breathing normally again.“Don’t leave the room and keep the dry leaves near the baby’s nose so he can’t inhale the poison. I will try to find out where the poison came from. I’ll come back as soon as I can,” I ordered.“Copy Luna,” Amy replied, still visibly shaken.I rushed to the door and left the room. I descended the staircase in a hurry.I saw Maya holding dry leaves in her hands. “Luna, I have already distributed the miraculous leaves to the servants.”“Good,” I said in relief and ordered her, “Now go find me a hammer! We will find the poison. If we can’t find it, there will be more deadly attacks later on.”“Copy Luna,” Maya said and went to the storage room. A few moments later, she returned with t

~Zella~I looked at Maya. My eyes widened in shock because no matter how many times she tried to hit my head with the hammer, she couldn't inflict pain on my head. The hammer just bounced off as if my whole body had turned into rubber. I suddenly had a weird feeling that my body was wrapped in an invisible barrier, an invisible shield that couldn't be seen with ordinary eyes.How could it be?What the hell is going on?Tired of using the hammer, Maya kicked me in the stomach but the same thing happened. Her kick didn't land on my belly.Am I dead or what? Why can't Maya's attack land on my body?“What did you do? What power did you have? Why can’t I hit you?” Maya asked, her eyes blazing with a mixture of annoyance and confusion as she tried to deliver a punch to my stomach.Still her fist didn't hit my stomach. I’m beginning to enjoy her shock and discomfort.“What the fuck is going on? Who the hell are you? What kind of black magic is this?” Maya asked in utter bewilderment.‘Should
