VIOLETIt’s like I just travelled through the light into the dark. It’s night time here and it's gloomy and eerie for some reason.“ WHO ARE YOU?! ” A female voice shrieks beside me.I look around. There are people all around me in what seems to be a market.At the distance, I see the huge castle calling out to me.I take a moment to breath. Did I…just teleport?“ Catch her! ” A man yells and footsteps get near me.They all meet the hard protective magic shield around me, their bodies getting electric shocks which makes them step back from me.I walk through the people who part to give me way. Some of them still try to attack me, but their attempts are futile.More people rush to me and try their best to break the shield around me while I keep my head straight and my eyes fixed at the high towered castle.Where am I? I don’t know. Yet, I know he is

VIOLETLuther Vladimir tells me all about Wolf, about Katrina and her return from the Orphena when the former Orpheuns died at the hands of my mother, about what he did to Wolf, about the offer of Katrina and Wolf’s offer of having him talk to his dead wife once. This enrages me. Wolf did everything without even asking me once. He should have told me about it beforehand. I am not a puppet who is supposed to do everything he wants me to do.At last, Luther Vladimir tells me about who killed his wife. “ A western coven Witch — Gysla killed my wife. ”This makes all my anger disappear at once.“ Does Wo — Liulf knows who killed your wife? ” It’s a stupid question, I know. But, I have to ask.“ Yes. He does. ” Luther replies without giving it a second thought.I suck my lips in my mouth, my wide eyes flickering acr

VIOLET “ Viktor. You have done enough. I don’t need you to do anything else now so take your leave. ” The King is quick to correct his son’s mistake of revealing his weakness to the supposed enemy.A small smile plays on my lips as Viktor rubs the back of his head. “ Yes My King. ” Throwing me a smile of his own, he takes his leave.Benjamin follows Viktor, leaving me alone with King Luther.“ You don’t actually know how to raise a wall, do you? ” Luther whispers after a while.My heart skips a beat. I drag my tongue across my lips which still taste like blood.“ I promised to raise a wall. ” I remind him.“ But you don’t know how to do it. ” Luther voices out the truth once more.How did he know? The question strikes me.“ I have lived for hundreds of ye

VIOLETViktor reaches over my shoulder and pulls the curtains over the window, blocking the sunlight.I am still in shock and denial. It was not supposed to happen. The wall was supposed to stand. I lost half my energy to raise that wall. It has always worked around me, but it didn’t work around the city.“ You said you would raise a wall to keep Katrina out. ” Luther blames me and his eyes turn red, threateningly.“ Dad. ” Viktor intervenes, coming between me and his father.My gaze shifts from Luther to Viktor and then my mind wanders off to Wolf.He is still there.I close my eyes and take a deep breath. I need to go to him. Bright light engulfs my figure and tingles rise on my body before I find myself falling into a portal.The next moment when I open my eyes, I find myself standing behind Wolf. His back is facing me and

VIOLETI force my eyes open and find Wolf dashing towards me, the Army at his back, wanting to tear him apart like he did to many. The black smoke follows him and his black eyes stare right at me as he lets out a growl. He is bleeding from different spots and the trail of his blood runs too far.My eyes close again when another ball hits me. Katrina is indeed playing with me. She wants me to ask her to stop.The pain which courses through my body and heart every time that she shoots another wave of magic at me, makes me want to do what she wants of me.I blink my eyes and see Wolf through my blurry vision. Then, my eyes shift to Katrina who forms another ball of magic between her palms and turns around to face Wolf.Fear grips my heart as I watch her getting ready to attack Wolf.Anger pulsates through me and makes me sit up on the ground. I place my hand on the ground
