According to Katie's plan, we were to keep Noble away from my father for some time. This seemed like impossible so I had to pretend as if I was in pain to attract dad's attention.Anu knew it that I was just putting on an act. Instead of asking help from someone else to carry me to my room, he asked father."What happened to her?"father asked."I also don't know but I think they're pregnancy complications."Anu lied.Oh wow. I never knew that men could ever lie but I witnessed it that day."I don't believe they're pregnancy complications."father pointed."What do you mean by that? What do you think has happened to her?""I know all this is happening because of you. My absence caused my daughter to marry the wrong person. She should have been happy with Mike. Away from all these problems.""But father...""Hey, don't call me that name. Am not your father and I never will, got that?"Anu nodded, "am sorry.""Okay leave us alone."Anu left the room disappointed. I could sense and feel h
"Oh no! What have you done Artie. You've given him a jug instead of a glass."Katie shouted but it was already too late to stop him from drinking it since his eyes were closed.According to the plan, father was to drink the whole glass without interruption."What should I do now Katie?"I asked in a helpless tone."Nothing. Don't interrupt him. He has to drink it all since we don't have any other choice.""Alright then."I nodded."But am afraid the antidote might put him in a deep slumber.""Deep sleep? Why so. I thought it was meant to break Noble's spell, right?"I was panicking now."Yes. The antidote was meant to cure your dad but you've given him excess. Am afraid it might become poisonous after spreading through his body and he might sleep for years.""What! Sleep for years?""Yes my dear, this antidote is too strong remember it was mixed with the king's blood and on top of that Noble is powerful himself. I wonder what will happen if our only hope fails us too. Dear Lord, have merc
"I asked where's your father."Noble shouted at me.I had nothing to tell him. "Didn't you hear me?"he was coming at the altar.God knows what he wanted to do to me."M..my father...is no...""Am right here Mr Noble."a familiar voice intervened."Father! " I removed the veil to see for myself.I couldn't believe what I just heard."Where were you Lucie?"Noble asked as if he's asking a small kid."Am only here to bless my daughter. I will answer your questions later."he responded to Noble confidently."Come over and tie this knot sir."the priest said."What's wrong with father. I thought he came back to stop this wedding but he is here to bless the marriage? This can't be my Dad. This must be someone else in disguise. But the voice, how come his voice is the same as my dad's?"I was confused.I didn't think twice before getting up."Hey, who are you?"I asked.Without saying a word, he removed the cloth from his head that covered his face.Shocked, "father! "I breathed deeply."Artie dea
"Anu furiously got up, ready to attack my father from behind.He tried summoning his magical sword but in vain. His birthmark on the forehead started to grow and just like that a sword appeared in his right hand."Oh no! I hope this isn't the end and the beginning at the same time."Katie sounded scared."What are you mean?""Anu is going to attack Lucie using the supreme sword and he might die after that since he was once a king. Noble was never destined to be a king so he's one by mistake. This means your father is still considered a king and that sword won't spare him. We have to warn him about it.'katie explained."Father."I called to warn him but it was too late. Anu had hurled the sword towards my father.Seeing it going straight to father, I closed my eyes since I didn't want to see his death. For the first time I felt like I wasn't pregnant. My stomach wasn't heavy anymore but my head was heavy instead.I opened my eyes to see if my father was still alive since I didn't hear hi
"A demon! Where's it?" Inspector asked with a scared expression on his face as he looked around."You won't see anything by looking around because that's the reason I called you here. Those two are taking the demon's soul and it might prove to be dangerous to people out there. "Smith said."So what should I do about it now. I don't understand anything."inspector said. He looked really scared."You have to stop them from leaving especially Anu. If Mike wants to leave then there's no problem but Anu and the soul must stay at any cost."he explained to the inspector who was gazing at Mike with a soulbottle in his hands."What if the soul escaped from the bottle, won't it harm me. Am really scared."he finally confessed."I know, all this is shocking for you but you have to help me. I don't have any other choice. I have to stop Anu from leaving. He's my son-in-law and he's not safe with that gentleman, Mike."Smith convinced."Okay. Let me try though am not sure if I will manage."he said shi
Using the magical needle, Katie pierced me on the stomach and just like that the black thread turned red after getting into contact with some drops of blood. She then withdrew it from me and did the same to Anu. But this time the red thread just disappeared so she withdrew a needle alone."The thread. Where did it go?" I asked. Just a few seconds later, I got a strange and painful feeling in my stomach."Ouch. Ahhh.."I wailed."Catch her. I know this is very painful."Katie said.Both Smith and father caught me up and laid me down to the floor next to Anu."What happened to her?"father asked Katie when he noticed that the pain was unbearable."The babies are shifting to Anu's stomach. That's why she's feeling this pain."Katie explained."But Anu doesn't have a womb. How will he...."father couldn't complete his question."You're right. Anu doesn't have a womb but Artie has one.This means they will shift together with the womb. They can't leave it behind."she assured them."You're so am
News about Noble's death travelled miles and miles and by the next morning, everyone in the Jungle Dark world knew about it. People, demons and some powerful witches gathered at the throne headquarters. The reason for their gathering wasn't known yet.My heart pounded so hard and loud the moment I saw them coming. I thought they had come to protest against father. I knew they had come to punish Noble's killer but all this was answered the moment I found out that Noble's death became a victory for my family and the Jungle Dark world at large because he was a selfish king who cared only for his family, neglecting the citizens.I never knew that everyone hated him this much because instead of mourning his death, demons and people celebrated and congratulated father for regaining the throne back.All this caused much anger to the owl's heart as it was visible right on its face."Am I the only one who can see this owl? It seems like other people can't see it. I have to ask someone about i
That night everyone looked happy except for one person, my father Lucie. He looked to be lost in thoughts."Excuse me Anu. I need to go and discuss something with father."I said before leaving Anu's side."Father."I called but he couldn't hear me because of deep thoughts. "Hey, what are you busy thinking about?"I said and this time he heard me."Artie dear."he said positioning his hair with his hands."It's clear on your face that you're thinking about something heavy. What's that father."I asked."It's nothing, don't worry."he said but it was visible on his face that he was worried about it too."Don't hide anything from me father. We're family not strangers. You can tell me anything please."I insisted."There's no point in sharing this with you my dear because it doesn't have a solution."he said."Just tell me please. You never know I can find a solution for it. Believe me when I say that I can do the impossible for my family."I said."Actually the thing is my heart still wants to b
