19 days to her birthday
Wednesday
After resting for few hours, I went out of my room and asked Sabrina about Darcy's whereabouts
"She should be in her room, your highness" she replied
"Where is her room?"
"The third room by the second hallway. Should I come with you your highness?"
"Don't worry, I gat this"
I opened the door to her room
"Oh! Baby more" someone moaned and I tried to slipped away but the people inside the room already knew about my presence.
Someone rolled off the bed instantly and Liam's eyes looked back at mine.
"Liam" I called quietly in disbelief
"Irene"
Liam, I thought and almost cried. I knew I was married but somehow it still hurt. I thought I knew Liam but I don't
"I'm sorry, I was... looking for Darcy, I didn't mean to disturb you guys" I said and turned back to leave
"Irene" Liam called "Wait!"
I closed the door and walke
18 days to her birthdayThursdayAfter being dressed in a golden armour, Sabrina handed me a sword and looked straight into my eyes, she was scared"Is there something you need to tell me?" I asked"No your highness. I know you can do this" she replied "Your mission is to meet the great Adrian Sargon and ask him for the Zia stone""Why do I have to meet my father like this?" I asked her even though I knew the reason"You will find out when you get there""And even if I have to fight my way in, I don't know how to use a sword""You're a natural fighter your highness" she replied and started casting her spellsI found myself outside a fenced building"This must be where dad is" I thought and wondered how to get in since the fence was too high for me to climb.I walked round the fence twice to see if there might be a way in but I found none. So, I made up my
18 days to her birthdayThursdayTwo Sabrina took something from my hand and ran out of the room. I was partially unconscious. Everything I was seeing were in two."She got the Zia stone!" I heard Sabrina screamed in the hallway and I imagined her raising the box up in the air"Irene! Irene!" People started shouting in the hallway and I used all the strength in me to get upSomeone opened the door and rushed to me, it was Darcy"Let me help you" she said"Thank you"She helped me out of the armor and hugged me "I've always knew you are our savior""I wouldn't have made it if not for my sisters"She held my hand and we both walked out of the ritual room"Hail Irene!" Alex howled into the air and the rest followed.Even though I did nothing to earn the praise, I was still proud of myself. I took my hand out of Darcy's hand and walked to Alex.He looked at
17 days to her birthdayFridayI was unable to sleep after what I heard in the midnight. Nobody ever told me that Amara Conrad was going to eat my heart if I lose to him and just thinking about it alone was driving me crazy.Thankfully, it was morning and a knock on the door took my mind off my horrible fate."Your highness" Darcy said and sat down on the couch that was in the room "How are you feeling this morning?""A little bit okay" I replied and sat up "Did I did great last night?""More than great your highness, it took me three weeks to do what you did last night"Someone knocked on the door and we stopped talking"Your highness" a male voice said "His highness want to see you and Darcy now""Okay. We're on our way"We left the room and Darcy took me to another room which wasn't far from the one we used in the midnight where Alex and Sabrina were waiting for us"We'r
17 days to her birthdayFriday"What!?" Liam said alarmedlyAlex got out of his seat instantly and looked at Liam"Go get the army ready" he commanded Liam, and Liam, Tanner and the other guy started heading out of the roomThere came three extremely loud sounds the moment Alex stopped speaking BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! And the next thing I knew, I was on the ground.The sound of the explosion continued ringing in my ears for almost a minute after it had exploded and that made it very hard for me to get up."Get the princess out" I heard Alex commandingSand was now raining on us and the room had became too dusty to the extent that you couldn't see the person next to you not to talk of the way out of the room but, I knew what was at stake and I wasn't ready to lose to him.I forced myself up and tried to navigate my way out of the raining sand but I couldn't see anyt
17 days to her birthday dayFridayI fell on my hands and started convulsing. My bones felt as if it was being crushed, my body was burning, my eyes felt as if it was about to be pulled out of it sockets and my brain felt as if it was on fire. I growled out in pain as loud as I could and the whole underground vibrated"More vampires are heading towards us" Sabrina complained but at this particular time, I don't give a fuck. The only thing that my brain was telling me was to kill SarahI shifted into a wolf and the pain stopped. I could hear everything that was happening in the hallways, I heard their footsteps as they were approaching as if it was happening in my head. I opened my eyes and saw Sarah, she stepped back frighteningly and I growled, she wasn't escaping this."YOU ARE DEAD!" I growled venomously and pounced at her but another vampire pushed her out of the way and I landed on him instead. I pulled
16 days to her birthdaySaturdayWe've been trekking for the past three hours in the darkness although all of us could see clearly. Sabrina was leading us and Liam was behind us.I've never seen anything like what you did this evening your highness" Sabrina said"What are you talking about?" I asked"The way you shifted. That was your first time and, it was glorious. I'm happy that I saw it with my own eyes""I was really angry and I'm still angry. I will not let her live""Let me deal with her myself" Jack said"But Jack...""No Irene. This is personal""I think Jack should deal with her himself" Liam butted in"Liam..." I trailed offLiam shrugged "I think it's personal"Jack stopped walking and we stopped walking too"Jack what is it?" I asked worriedlyHe couldn't look me in the eyes "I've been holding it in. But, I can't continue. Not anymor
16 days to her birthdaySaturday"Where are you going alone?" Alex asked me coldly from the entrance of the cave"I'm looking for something that Jack can feed on when he wakes up""And you think that you can do it alone?""I fought for myself last night""You still aren't getting it" he stepped out of the cave "Things are becoming more dangerous now. Amara Conrad is becoming impatient. You can't just be walking up and down anyhow. His men are out there looking for you. Which part of this don't you understand?""My brother needs to feed""Liam, Sabrina, Darcy can get you what you need""I'm getting it myself""I'm going with you then""Suit yourself" I murmured. I knew he heard me but he ignored itWe walked into the woods and started sniffing the air for any nearby animal"There" Alex said and I looked at the direction he was looking at. An antelope ran past a
16 days to her birthdaySundayNot even up to thirty minutes after I slept, someone woke me up roughly"Whaaaaaat?" I asked grumpily"Wake up" someone whispered urgently "I think they are here"I sat up instantly and looked around the room"What are you talking about?" I asked Alex, he was the one who woke me up"The vampires are here. Their scent is in the air"I sniffed in the air "it's Jack's scent I guess""It's stronger" he said and sniffed in the air heavily "We have to leave now"Even though the only scent I could perceive was that of Jack, I still got up and followed him out of the room on tip toesDarcy, Sabrina, Liam were all waiting for us at the entrance of the hut and I looked around for Jack"What of Jack?" I asked when he was nowhere to be found"We were all standing here but..." Darcy stopped talkingLiam moved away from where he was sta
