Chapter 01

AUTHOR'S POV

“ CATCH HER! ” The guards yelled as the heavy running footsteps sounded in the silent forest.

She glanced behind herself pushing away the cape of the hood she was wearing. Running, she grabbed the gown with her right hand and ducked just in time to dodge the branch of the tree that was about to hit her on her face.

Suddenly, her grey eyes started to take a light blue hue turning frosty. Feeling the anger boiling in her veins once again, she turned around abruptly only to be faced by three Soldiers holding onto their swords surrounding her. She dropped the basket in which there were alot of red roses that she had plucked from all around the forest.

“ Stop running. We will go easy on you. We will take turns I swear. You will enjoy it little one. ” One of the guard sneered at her licking up his lips as her eyebrows raised up in disgust.

The ground beneath their feet started to tremble as veils of frost started to cover up the trees around them, turning the atmosphere cold.

The eyes of all three guards went wide as they glanced at her and noticed her completely light blue eyes with hues of white surrounding the Iris.

“ Witch! ” One of the guard dropped down his sword and stumbled back with his eyes wide in fear and his arms wrapped around his body to keep himself warm.

“ Stop it Witch! ” The head guard yelled and lunged forward as she snapped her head in his direction emotionlessly and he froze on his spot, unable to move.

The sword fell from his hand and he looked down at his feet which were now caged in an ice block. He started screaming as Frore smirked and turned to the other guards.

Seeing the horrific scene, the two guards stumbled back and started running away from there.

Frore sighed out heavily ignoring the guard's screams and closed her eyes trying to control her anger. Slowly, she felt the cold anger inside her subsiding and she slowly blinked her eyes open, feeling them burning with the same coldness.

She slowly turned to look at the guard who was screaming and trying hard to get his legs out of the ice, that was slowly creeping up his body.

She stepped closer with a stern look on her face. These men found her in the forest and wanted to rape her even though they were the kingdom's soldiers. Frore had resorted to run because she didn't wanted to attract any trouble after showing her real self and strength.

“ Do you have family? ” She whispered out in a trance after stopping in front of him. Judging from his age, he must have a family.

He stopped screaming and looked up at her afraid of what Frore was going to do to him.

“ A wife and a Da-Daughter. ” He stuttered out, as she felt the coldness clutching her heart once again.

Looking away from him, her gaze went down to his legs and she closed her eyes focusing to absorb the magic back, to free him. Slowly, the ice surrounding him started to disappear and the guard fell down on the ground.

“ I am leaving you because you have a family waiting for you at home. Don't go around raping women. Someone might do it to your daughter one day. Karma is a bitch! ” Scoffing at him, Frore turned around and started picking up the roses, after grabbing the basket. She could hear the sound of his feet thumping against the ground as he ran away from her to save his life but she knew they will be back with a greater soldier support with them. People never changed.

After picking up all the flowers, she placed a hand on her waist and sighed out dramatically.

“ I feel like I am an old lady now. ” Huffing, she leaned backward stretching her back as the hood fell from her head revealing her unusal white-blonde hairs, milky white complexion, big greyish- blue eyes, a small pointed nose and heart shaped cherry lips.

Frore sighed out and threw the hood back over her face to cover up her hairs and half of her face.

Suddenly, she looked up at the sky and noticed that it was going to be night soon. Shaking her head, Frore started walking back to her house in a hurry. 

On the way, a smile lit up her face when she saw whity running around. Smiling, she placed the basket down and ran to him to pick him up and bring him back with her. He was a pure white rabbit and her only friend. That's why Frore was so excited to see him.

Picking him up, she rubbed his head and he nuzzled up in her hand, when Frore chuckled and went to pick up her basket.

Walking again, she could see her small wooden cabin hidden in the trees at some distance. Softly, Frore sighed in relief and rushed to reach there.

She pushed the door open and placed Whity down, as he ran inside to find his carrot at his usual place in the small kitchen.

Placing the basket down, Frore removed her hood revealing her white gown under it and started towards the kitchen to make dinner for herself. The silence in the house felt more suffocating today for some reason so she started humming the usual tune to herself to divert her mind from having any negative thoughts. She didn't know how she learnt this tune, but she started humming it unconsciously when she was a child. It felt like Frore had listened it too many times, but she couldn't remember when or where.

Frore was an orphan and she used to live my life alone from the start, but atleast she used to have some human interaction before. She was still happy though, atleast she wanted to believe that. Even if she was not happy, she was at peace.

The world had fell apart after the Great War that happened hundred years ago. In that war, humans killed all the Great Dragons who used to reign the world. The humans acquired magical powers out of nowhere before the war. That's what the tales used to tell anyway.

The Great War did not only ended Dragons, it caused Humans alot of damage too. Nearly half of the world's population was wiped away. Blood and dead bodies surrounded the whole world, as the Eternal fire of the Dragons burnt cities down to the ground.

As the war with the Dragons ended, with even the last of the dragon being killed, Humans started the war among themselves. They killed each other ruthlessly with the magic they had acquired so the one who won the war, Lovis Albertine, the King of Albertinia passed the rule that all humans who had magic were to be executed and only the selected people of the king were allowed to have magic running in their veins.

She was alive because the woman who raised her in the orphange taught her to hide her powers from the start. She had always told Frore that her magic was a curse and the fact that she was unable to control her anger made this curse even more lethal. Frore hated that she had powers and that's why she always tried her best to not use this curse of her's.

No one even knew how they got magic powers all of a sudden, but the King wanted them dead for something that was not even their fault.

Lovis Albertine was the most powerful among all the humans in the Kingdom and he had never failed to show it. He had killed people ruthlessly with the magic he possessed and he was ruling the Kingdom recklessly. People were just insects now and poverty reigned over the streets of the cities.

Frore shooked her head and started cutting the vegetables that she had grown in her own garden behind her small wooden cabin.

The loud sound of a crash shooked the walls of her small cabin all of a sudden and she jumped up cutting her hand in the way as blood started to drip down her finger. Frore's eyes went wide as the sounds kept coming from the forest like something too big fell on the ground shooking it up completely. Her heart started beating faster as whity rushed to her and hid behind her gown scared of what really was happening outside.

Another crash sounded and Frore ended up screaming out in fear. Taking the courage by placing her hand on her chest, she started walking to the door and opened it slightly; knowing that Whity was moving behind her, scared.

Frore peeked through the crack and saw the blinding light of some kind before the door was pushed open and slammed right on her face making her fall unconscious by the force that was used to through it open, but she didn't miss out on seeing the huge masculine figure stepping inside her house.

And her small world.
