Whispers of Willow
The witch sat in front of Wes, holding a burning incense and waving it to spread the smoke.
"You are to be the king someday and I owed it to Aurum."
Wes shifted his weight from one side to another, disliking the politics that seemed to follow him everywhere.
"I will be sure to remember this."
The old witch looked at Willow, soundly sleeping.
"Tell me something, why does it have to be this girl?"
Wes looked at her peaceful sleeping face too, and before he could form an answer, she woke up with a start, feeling like she was falling down a flight of stairs. Her heart was racing and her breathing was frantic. She let out a gasp and looked at Wes and the witch.
