RALIAI had no idea for how long I had slept, but I was sure I had slept for a long time before Amelia came to wake me up.“Dinner is ready” she said as she sat down at the edge of my bed.I sat up on the bed.“I would like to have my food here” I said turning away from her.“I would have really loved to do as you said but Lord Lesley specifically gave orders that you should be brought Downstairs to eat your food”“Okay” I answered nonchalantly but still sat where I was.“Do not worry Amelia, you can leave now’” I said to her. “I would go to him”She did not argue any further, she just stood up and did as I had said.I waited for a few minutes before I started going down.I got to the dinning hall, he was sitting at one end, and he was already eating.“You should know clearly by now that I do not like being kept waiting” he said without looking up.I sat down at the other end of the table.“I am sorry, I had to get my self prepared first”.I studied him as he ate to check if o would n
RALIAI was welcomed by the sight of the hut with the smoke coming out of the roof.Though I had been here twice already, it was still a bit hard for me to get used to the place.I knocked slightly before going in.“Welcome young princess” he gave me a toothy smile the moment he saw me.“Looks like you were expecting me” I said taking a sit. “Please tell me you have good news for me”.“Of course” he answered standing up to take something from a drawer close to his stool.I brought out a very shiny and neat sword and held it up.I looked at it and my face brightened up.It looked just like the one I had seen In Lesley’s underground house.Finally a fragment of my problem had been solved.Now I just had to look for the perfect plan and opportunity to stab him.I stood up and took the sword from him and studied it carefully.“I guess my work is done” I smiled at him“Not so fast” he said taking the sword from me.I got a bit furiousWhat else does he want?“I had paid you already do why
RALIAAmelia had just left my room, and I had put on my sleeping robe and was about going to bed when I heard a loud scream.The voice …… The voice, it belonged to no one else but Lesley.I sat up immediately feeling alarmed.Why did he suddenly scream so loud, what had happened to him? Was he already starting to turn into the monster.My hands immediately flew to my mouth and I gasped in fear.I did not know when I immediately jumped out of bed and opened the door.I looked around the hallway, there was nobody there.I headed for his room.I met some few servants on my way to his room, they were just standing around like nothing happened.It made me feel that probably they were used to it.Had it happened to him before? Had it become a normal occurance?I could not help but think that probably this would continue happening to him till he finally turns o to a complete monster, the one I saw in my dream, the one that did not recognize me.I got to his room and I opened the door without
LESLEYI scattered my hair in frustration the moment she ran out from the room.I could not believe I had almost hurt her.How could I have ever done that?I hope she was okay.I resisted the urge of going to her room to check up on her.I would do that tomorrow.I felt like something was missing from me, like there was something that needed to be done that was not yet done.That could be the cause of my worried state.I did not get any sleep at all that night, I just could not get my mind off what I almost did to Ralia.It was almost dawn when I finally fell asleep.RALIAI did not have a smooth sleep at all that night, I kept waking up and falling asleep again amidst nightmares.I finally forced myself awake at Dawn.I again thought about what Lesley almost did to me that night, the I linked it to that nightmare I had, the one in which he did not recognize me at all and wanted to hurt me.Was it the nightmare playing out? Was the demon starting to manifest?I sprang up on my bed imm
LESLEYI watched her as she slept, it hurt my heart to see her in that state, and it hurt even more that I was responsible for putting her in that pathetic state.I wanted to apologise, I so badly wanted to tell her that I was sorry for hurting her that much, and a also wanted to let her Know that it was not my intention at all to hurt her that much. I wanted to let her Know that I was not in control of my body when I had done that to her.But I stopped myself from doing that.It would make me vulnerable to her letting her know how weak I was before her.She should not know the effect she has on me.She should not know that she has got me trapped, trapped in a where I can not escape from no matter how much I tried.It was as if I had been chained by her, chained to a place I should not be.I lay down beside her making sure I did not go to close so I would not hurt her.I lay facing her and watching her beautiful face as she slept, she looked so beautiful.I was still admiring the beau
RALIA“He should be dead by now” I said casuallyI saw the look of shock on her face, I liked it. Although I did not want her to get traumatized because of what she had seen, but yet I liked the shock on her face, I liked that she would start to have some fear for me if she did not have any before now.I was glad that she had seen what would happen to anyone who rebelled against me.I went to sit close to her on the bed.“You might not understand now Ralia, but I would try to break it down in the most understandable way for someone like you” she sat upright fully and shifted away from me.I smiled at her reaction.“That man you had seen out there, I do not know if he was still alive or if he would already be dead by now. He is one of those who think they could be audacious enough to rebel against me. Unfortunately for him, he was caught. And I had just used him as a scale goat to all other people who are rebels”I observed her face to see her reaction, my words had the exact effect I
RALIABy the time I woke up, he was gone.Probably to one of his numerous meetings or businesses.I was still naked, I was gradually getting used to waking up naked on Lesley’s bed.“Good morning Lesley, feels nice to wake up next to you every morning” I said aloud even though I knew there was no Lesley the room, he had snuck out as usual.I laughed at my silly jokes.Maybe the make believe I always played about prince Theodore had so taken over me that I started to do it now also.I still felt sore from last night, there was a throbbing in between my legs, they gave me sweet pains. Because they were from the man I love.I admired the dark red marks all over my body where he had bitten me.My heart beat increased whenever I thought about him.I stood up, wore my clothes and left the room.Amelia was already waiting for me in my room by the time I got there.“Good morning Ralia” she said smiling as soon as she saw me.“Good morning Amelia” I greeted back.“I had already prepare your ba
LESLEYNow get your traitor self up from there right now.She delayed, and sit sat on the ground there shedding her signature crocodile tears.I walked to her impatiently and dragged her up violently.I carelessly pushed her around and dragged her with me.I bound her into the horse that was waiting outside and zoomed off after returning the house underground.Even though it still baffles me how she manages to open the house.When we arrived home, I pulled her with me carelessly and dragged her into her room.She kept pleading with me to spare her life, as if she was aware that she had charmed me and I could not bring myself to kill her no matter what.“I am going to keep you hostage in your room once again traitor” I said as I pushed her violently to the ground again.“Like I said, do not think you are special, I can easily kill you” I said looking at her with dark angry eyes.I kicked her hard on the stomach and stormed out of the room.I got into my room angrily and angrily punched
