"Zayn?" I sat up on the bed, looking at him. "My love, what is it? Why with the tears?"Suddenly talking about his time with this man name Merkoff must be an unpleasant memory. That is what got my blood boiling. My body is warm from the release of my magic. "Zayn, what did he do?"Zayn sat up but kept his head down to avoid eye contact with me. Looking at his eyes, he knows I can read him like a book.I grip his chin to face me. "Zayn, what did that man do?" I asked again, not to flash my anger towards him. His expression is distraught, and advert his eyes, his body trembling. Zayn just recently became a man, but the mind of his past is still intact. Although we did an adult thing together, and I feel like I did something inappropriate, beast people mature faster than humans. Zayn was just a child, and to think he had experienced something so horrifying and traumatic pissed me off. I got off the bed."Alice, where are you going?"I snapped a bit of my magic to dress myself fully.

Zayn and I appeared at the front gate of Gauford in the country of Ferona, where one man governs, and he's the man I'm going to see."Lady Alice," Zayn grabbed my arm before I stepped."Zayn, I told you not to be so formal with me," taking his hand. "We are husband and wife now."He blushed."Well, on your terms, but once we return home, let's have a proper wedding."Then Zayn pulls a smile. "I would love that.""Okay, now let's see Merkoff and chat with him."As I approached the gate, a line of people was already going into the city. Usually, to enter one's city, one would need a gate passed with an authorized signature from a guild or someone with power. But the line isn't moving, and people who want to get through are complaining."Seems this line has not moved, Alice."I nod my head. With my palm, I magically appear a pass—my own. Since I run my domain, they shouldn't question it. But just to be so cautious. I skipped the line and approached the guards at the gates."Excuse me

The Red Witch 2. Memory Lane
As we continue to travel down the road during the night and leave the snowy mountains where my castle resides. I close my eyes to rest but never expect to recall Alice Von Rozen's memory. Being an illegitimate of a duke and a lowly maid became a target of bullying and mistreatment. I never received the same treatment as my sister and older brother, Julian, who are both legitimate of the Duke and his wife, Lavender. I was treated below the social status of servants. In this Alice's memories, she was weak and timid, easy to get picked on by others. The maids and servants around Rozen's estate treated her like an insect. Easily disgusted and hated, and easy to stomp on. The only person who treated her nicely was her grandfather, Cornelius Von Rozen. A decorative war hero who fought during the war many years ago against the monsters. He was given the title of a duke after the war was over given by the king.

"My lady, we've arrived." I opened my eyes after hearing Zayn's voice waking me up once the carriage stops. Blinking my drowsy eyes and yawning to stretch out my arms and stiff neck. I didn't realize I slept until a blanket was over me. Knowing the only person who's inside the carriage with me. I smile. Zayn steps out first as the sun is bright outside making my eyes blind. He extend his hand as I took it with his help in getting out. Took one step as my heels stepped on the ground. The first thing that caught my attention was the golden gate and the Rozen family sigil. "Miss Alice?" I blink my eyes and look at Zayn. "Let's go." I approached the gold gates as two guards stand in front. Once they spot me walking toward them, they were on high alert. "Excuse me, Miss, state your business?" The guard on the left asked with a little hostile tone. It's been five years and most of the servants here have never seen my face so I don't blame the guard to express that way to a stran

The Red Witch 5. The Archmage, Seraphina
How can this woman look like me? Every detail, from her face to her ruby red hair color except for the eyes other than that I'm like a splitting image of her. It's like seeing through a mirror, like a portrait of me that has never hung on the walls of this estate. "Who is she?" I asked as look up at the old man. "Seraphina Eckhart, Whitheld's strongest archmage, head of the Magic Tower, and your grandmother.""What?" My whole body cringed and froze at this sudden outcome. "My grandmother? But my father is her son if she's my grandmother?"Grandfather shakes his head. "No." He says firmly. "You are your father's daughter. Your mother, I did not know she was Seraphina's daughter."Did not know?
