Chapter 1
Years ago a girl named Mabel was born with Magic, she got her gift from her grandmother when she was born. Her grandma died after Mabel was born. Mabel is the only girl born with magic, she can only make use of her magic when she is eighteen years old. Mable is now twenty years old and she can make use of her magic but she has been hiding her magic from people for years, she felt that she was an abnormal person living among the human, she is different, she felt ashamed that she was not like any other person in the world. Only her parents know about her magic. Mabel has been practicing her magic in secret and in the front of her parents. Her mum worked as a maid in the palace and her dad was a guard in the place.The king has been sick for five years, the queen and the crown prince has been handling the kingdom.King Alan was a wicked king, people are always scared of him, since when king Alan had been on sick bed, his son prince Brian and his wife, queen Emma and for years they had been handling the kingdom, they have been taking things easy with the people in the kingdom, the people prays for King Alan to be dead so that prince Brian can be crown king.Mabel had never worked before and she had been jobless, she was always at home whenever her parents are at work, she thought asking her parents to get a job for her in the palace, she picked up her cellphone to called her mother.“ Hey mum, I was thinking of coming to the palace maybe I could get a job” she said and her mum does not like that idea.“ I don’t like the idea of you thinking of wanting to work in the palace” her mum said and Mabel was sad.“ Mum! But why ?” She asked.“ Your mum is a palace maid and her your dad also a palace guard and you also want to work in the palace, I don’t want that and also remember you have a magic and I know that you are stubborn and want to practice it anywhere because you don’t want to practice in secret anymore” her mum said.“ Alright mum but I will come to the palace soon” she said and her mum saw the queen coming and she ended the call.“ My queen” Mabel’s mum said and she bow her head.“ You should served me wine in my room and some snacks” the queen said and Mabel’s mum nods her head, the queen left.Mabel dressed up in a yellow gown, she walked out of the house, she entered the bus after some minutes the bus dropped her, she walked into the palace looking around smile, she was practicing her magic in secret, she was about to her enter Into the main building in the palace and the guard stopped her and she use her magic to remove the belt of his trousers and the guard trousers fell off and Mabel laughed, Mabel’s father saw her and he knew that Mabel had used her magic and he walked closer to her.“ Mabel” her dad said.“ Dad!” She hugged her dad, the guard quickly wear his trousers back, Mabel’s dad take her in.“ What are you doing in the palace?” Her dad asked.“ Well, I told mum that I wanted to come to the palace maybe I could get a job but she said, I can’t get a job here because you both worked here ” she said.“ Your mum is right Mabel. Why did you practiced your magic earlier I thought we had an agreement on your magic that it has to be secret” her dad said.“ Well mum, he didn’t know that I had magic or use my magic on him” she said.“ I think you should leave” her dad said.“ No dad, I can’t. I was thinking if you could get me a job here or still I can stay here, I am bored at home and I am tiring of using my magic alone without anyone laughing, you both always laugh whenever you are home with me, you both are only home in the weekends” she said.“ Alright, you can stay here but promise me that you will not practice your magic here” her dad said.“ I will try not to mum but I can’t promise, I will passed the night here” she said.“ Alright, it’s fine” her dad said.“ I will go to the library to read” she said and she left and went to the library.Mabel’s mum was coming out from the queens room after she served her wine and snacks, she met with Mabel’s dad.“ Hey! Are you ok?” She asked.“ Yes, I am ok. Mabel is here” he said and Mabel’s mum was shocked.“ Mabel is here? Where is she?” She asked.“ She went to the library” he said.“ I told her not come here. She said, she wanted to worked in the palace and I went against her idea” she said.“ She said, she want to passed the night here” he said.“ She can’t passed the night in the palace, Mabel is stubborn and I am sure she will practice her magic and use it on the queen and prince, I will go meet her now in the library” she said.“ Mabel walked into the library and she saw some magical books, she took one of the magical books and she bumped on the prince, they both stare at reach other.“ Ouch! My prince, I am sorry” she said and the prince has never met her before.“ Who are you and what are you doing in the Royal library?” He asked.“ Ehmmm….. I…I….I…” she said and her mum walked into the library and she saw Mabel sign the prince.“ Mabel!” Her mum said.“ Opps! You know her” prince Brian said.“ Yes, my prince, I apologize for everything she had done, she is my daughter” her mum said.“ I haven’t done anything mum” Mabel said and her mum kept her short.“ You shouldn’t keep me short mum” she said and queen Emma walked into the Royal library.“ Mrs Clement! What are you doing in the Royal library and who is this young lady with you?” Queen Emma asked.“ She is my daughter and I am sure she mistakenly walked into the royal library” her mum said.“ Humm… I see.” Queen Emma said and she saw a magical book in Mabel’s hand.“ How do sue having a magical book with her in her hand?” Queen Emma asked and Mabel’s mum saw the magical book and she quickly took it from her.“ Where did you take it from?” Her mum asked and Mabel pint hand and her mother returned it back to its position.“ You should warned her that the royal library is meant only for the royals and not for the poor or commoners because next might not be her lucky day but the worst day of her life” queen Emma said.“ I am so sorry my queen and also my prince” she said and she took Mabel out of the library.“ You look stress mum. How is dad doing?” Prince Brian asked.“ I don’t know, I guess getting worst day by day, the doctor said there is no remedy for his sickness, I am not ready to be a widow” queen Emma said.“ Dad the king will be fine” prince Brian said and he hug his mum.Chapter 2 Mabel’s mum took her out of the library in anger.“ What was that Mabel? Why on health will you go the Royal library?” Her scolded her.“ Why are you scolding me mum? It seems like I have committed a big sin” she said.“ Why were you with the magical book?” Her mother asked.“ Well, I wanted to read what is in there so I can practice more of magic” she replied.“ I think you should leave now” her mum said.“ That is not possible mum, I already told dad that I will be spending the night here and it’s fine by him, it should be fine by you too, I am bored home” she said.“ Alright, I will accept you to pass night here on one condition and the condition is that you will have to promise me that you will not practice your magic in the palace” her said.“ I will try not but i can’t promise you mum” she said.“ I will take a walk around the palace” she said and she take a walk round the palace.Prince Brian and queen Emma went to the king’s room to check on him, queen Emma looked s
Chapter 3It’s the following day and princess Alicia arrive in a limousine car with entourage and lot of bodyguards, prince Brian and queen Emma are outside ready to welcome her, Mabel saw princess Alicia coming and she was jealous and she wants to leave, her mum stop her.“ Mabel! Where are you going to?” Her mum asked.“ Going back home mum”Mabel said.“ You can’t go now, princess Alicia is here and it said that whenever a Royal enters the palace no one goes in or come in, it’s a signe for a respect” her mum said and she saw that Mabel was not happy.“ Seeing Alicia disgust me” she said and her mum cautioned her not to call princess Alicia by her name but to add the Royal title.“ You can’t just call her by her name, she is Royal and not just Royal, a daughter of a king also and that made her a princess, so she is princess Alicia and you have to respect that title” her mum said and Mabel frown.“ I know you are angry and jealous because I know you are crushing on the prince and I lo
Chapter 4Mabel and her parents stood and the queen saw them, she yelled at them.“ Why are you all here? This is a private meeting, we having with the witch so you should leave immediately if I need something I will ask for you” the queen said, Mabel and her parents were about to leave and the witch stopped them.“ They should stay because that girl is part of the king’s solution if she accepts to help the royal family” the witch said pointing at Mabel, prince Brian, queen Emma and princess Alicia were shocked, Mabel and her parents were also shocked.“ How do you mean?” Prince Brian ask.“ How is she part of the solution?” Queen Emma asked.“ She is just a common girl and Jane no use for the Royal family” Princess Alicia said.“ You may think so princess Alicia but that girl is more useful than you are, she will still save this palace in the future if you give her chance” the witch said.“ Do not speak to princess Alicia that way, she demands some respect” queen Emma said in anger.
Chapter 5The queen paste around in her chamber because she was not buying the idea that her son will get married to a servant’s daughter, the prince stopped her and he calmed her down.“ Calm down mother, I will go speak to Mabel” prince Brian said and the queen walked closer to him.“ What will you say to her?” Queen Emma asked.“ I don’t know but what so ever comes to my mind” the prince said and he left the queen’s chamber’s to meet Mabel, he met her with her parents in the passage of the and he walked closer to her.“ Can i speak to you?” The prince asked Mabel.“ Sure your highness” she replied, Mabel’s parents were still standing beside her.“ I want to speak to you alone” Brian said and Mabel stare at her parents.“ Mum, Dad! Can you please leave us?”she asked and her parents nods.“ Please let us know if anything goes wrong” her mum said and they left, Mabel and Brian stare at each other.“ I don’t know what all this is all about the witch said but I can’t get married to you,
The wind picked up speed as Prince Brian stood on the ship’s bow, where she had a clear vision of where she was headed. To be honest, all she could see was water stretching for miles in all directions, which was mostly the case, anyway: the Otherworld consisting of vast, dangerous seas, scattered with secret islands here and there, with a multitude of creatures that didn’t mingle with each other…hidden from the human world. That included her island, Broom’s Island, home to warlocks and witches. It was her home, too, and normally she would be thrilled to return to her cottage and reacquaint herself with village life. But today wasn’t normal.“It’s going to be all right. I just have to explain to them that things didn’t work out and there was nothing I could do. They will understand.”Even saying it out loud didn’t sit right, and the wind gaining even more speed felt like a wordless agreement. She had one task at hand when she left Broom’s Isle: retrieve a valuable gemstone from Centro,
You have got to be kidding me.”The relief was short-lived at the glimpse of the dancing waves, closer than ever and more massive than she had anticipated. Prince Brian only had a second or two to form a clear statement in her blank mind.Mr. Voice, I’m sorry for doubting you.Then the first wave was dragging her under.Wake up and check out this magical world, where all your dreams will come true.A dreamy haze filled her senses, matching the words that seemed to float endlessly. Prince Brian engrossed herself in it, feeling like she was lying down on the most comfortable feather bed. She didn’t want to stand up. She didn’t want to leave it, not when it hugged her like a lover and made her feel safe, protected, loved…Wake up.A prickle came, then another. It formed into pokes, putting holes in the dreamy haze until she heard the voice more clearly.Wake up!Prince Brian eyes snapped open, but her vision didn’t grow steady until after repeatedly blinking and shaking her head. The com
Astonishment spread over his features as he registered the magic and what she was. He sputtered when she slipped, then hissed when she grabbed his ankles and kept pulling aggressively. Just as she was about to give up, the rock he was holding on to broke.“Don’t breathe it in!”But her warning was too late, as the next shot from the pixies went straight to his face, covering him with shimmering powder. Then they were both plunged into a continuous fall that choked her senses. Prince Brian reached up, hands calling her magic, but it was stuck in her body. She closed her eyes, willing herself not to die a gruesome death…then preparing herself for the hard impact.An arm caught her and swung her upward, changing her direction until she was eye-to-eye with the male magic girl. She watched the powder take effect as those magenta eyes lost focus. She felt his body struggle with it as he locked her in place. Then she was bouncing on some force—a magical one—just as his arm went slack and his
How do you know how to speak our language? Mabel folks speak their language.”He shrugged. “Mabel folks adjust and my court just happens to be very adept at multiple languages, including yours. And I still don’t know your name.”She looked at him like Mabel folks and adjusting shouldn’t be put in the same sentence but didn’t say a word. The silence stretched on.“Prince Brian. Em for short.”Prince Brian.Like her eyes. The name fit. He waited for a last name, then nodded when he deduced that she wasn't going to give it yet. He studied her for a bit and felt a kinship…then, an understanding.“You're lost too. This isn't your island and you don't know how to get out.”Prince Brian tensed again, then absorbed the rest of his deduction. Her brows furrowed.“Too?”The next part was tricky as he wasn’t sure how much he should reveal yet—or if he should even reveal anything at all.“I was thrown here by magic. And I don't know how to get out.”It was the truth, but not the whole truth. She t
