Murphy and Mary stood there besides Johanna, she was collecting few things to go to the temple for prayers, while both of them stood looking at her with doleful eyes.Johanna turned around and put her hands on the cheek of them both,"I'll be back soon honey.Just a prayer it is, though it's a difficult one but we can still manage to do it for the sake of our father and for this castle.The devils will be lifted and the darkness will be washed away.We will be living here with love and prosperity again.I wish the happiness of our family returns soon", she sighed with grief on her face."But but, can it not come another way? Why do you have to go?Can't someone else go instead? Murphy spoke innocently.

Murphy instantly knew that that was the end of Johanna's story too, she came to know that there wasn't anything in her hands that could possibly pose any chance of her survival.There she stood, looking at the tomb silently, lost in the world of hopelessness that encaged her badly.She had run out of any hope to do any justice to them, she had tried all that was in her hands.There was nothing else that there was for her to try even, everything was already planned by the master of treachery, the emotions were already captured in the charm of it, the plots were already set, the preys were already fallen into it, there was merely no chance of any revival.A wave of disgust passed through her body, seizing her bitterly in it.Tears no longer made their way to her eyes, the boiling of her brain had dried up all her tears that would have shed at the grievance of her failure.There she stood, having her fists clenched, gritting her teeth, thinking about the p

The dagger was emitting radiations, at the same time her attention was caught by a similar ray of dust golden light coming from the side, hitting the floor in front of her.She turned around immediately, thinking what was that which emitted such glow.Her jaw dropped at the sight of glow emitting from the lock that hung on the door.She got up immediately, looking at both of the entities shining brighter with the same glow, her heart was pounding harder at that, that suddenly she felt a hard pull on the dagger while she held it tightly.The dagger was pulled by some invisible forces upon it, she could clearly feel the pull on her hand, which was trying to drag her along with it.She let the dagger put on the floor instantly, wishing to see where does it get pu

"Alphaaaaa?. . . Alphaaaa?", she was wandering around the trees and finding him where she had found him there a day before.It had been a time that she was searching for him, and he was nowhere to be found."Princess! Have you been anticipating someone's presence here?", a familiar voice spoke from behind her.She turned around immediately to find Hugo there standing behind her.Her heart halted at the sight of him, the warm look in this eyes was too hard to be missed, and the half crooked smile was the signature look on his face.He was exactly the same the way she had seen before, just the color of his hair was a bit darker than before."Ah, I was looking for Alpha.Have you seen him?", she inquired."Perhaps he will be somewhere around the fountain over there", he pointed at the lawn at some distance."By the way, it was useful sending Mr. Marsh there.I needed some company in the office,

They ran behind the bushes, in the dark, the twigs snapping on their faces, Murphy ran blindly after him.Alpha was climbing on the stone wall on the periphery, he seemed to have discovered many routes over there, Murphy followed, till she was totally out of breath."It's right there, few steps away", he spoke while pushing some hay away from the edge of the steep wall."Right there, we are on the backside of it, no one can expect us here.We can have a close look on side of it now", he tiptoed towards the room and signaled her to follow.The room was equally illuminated from that side as well, there were only a few windows there.They leaned across the building, peeping inside from the sides.They could see the people standing inside, and one of them sitting on the ground in the praying position, who suddenly rose up and rose his hands.The king leaped forward and handed him over a tray, on which something stayed laid inside in a cloth.

It was her bag that felt warmer to her again, she could feel the glow inside it.She instantly knew what was happening there.Alpha was looking inside through the windows with wretched heart, he didn't want to leave that place, as the tyranny was of the king was something that he couldn't absorb till yet.Murphy backed off quietly, sliding behind the bush quickly, as she pulled the parchments out of her bag quietly, the gleam was a dim one, and the words started to dissolve again.This time the date mentioned was not any older, it was the same one, there was some instruction written on those pages,Tick tock goes the clock, unmuzzled.It takes longer to go around to 12Slow and steady, with careful gait,Turn back the clock to face our fears,To know from where did they start ticking.Look deep in the soul for the answers you seek,To radicate, locate it completely.

"Haaah! That was the best prey that I could ever chase", the king exclaimed with joy, trotting on his black shiny stallion.His hair was dark black, against his fair skin. The magnificence that he held on his face was unparalleled, the young strong body was adding to the marvelousness of him, as he showed off about his hunting skills."Sire, that was really a courageous one, a magnificent one.A real wise man would have done it that way", Hugo responded with a similar joy in his tone, joining him on his pearly white stallion, which was eye-catching due to its immense beauty.Hugo had a long black beard, his eyes shown a shine in it, a young spirit could be seen tracing back through them.The king laughed heartily at him, and kept his heavy hand on his back, patting on him, "Wise?
