Eric was puzzled and thought to himself, was it a dream or was it a hallucination. He looked at his table and opened the drawer. In there he saw the two broken pieces of the ointment jar. "No, it can't be. It must be because I feel guilty for hurting her that I just dreamt of her. It's nothing else," he said to himself. He was restless that he couldn't sleep that night. His heart felt unsteady as if he lost something important. Ruby returned back to her home and lay in front of the river. She was exhausted. Even with her eyes closed she couldn't sleep.Grandmother Willow's tree branches pivoted to lift her chin up to her and said, "What's bothering you?""How do you know I'm not asleep," asked Ruby."You're frowning.""I just can't sleep.""Ruby, dear...""Yes, Grandmother Willow," said Ruby looking up at her."I think it's time you hear the truth about me.""You sure?""Yes.""Have you ever read about the Northern Border's great beauty?""I have, but there were only words. Not a sin
“While they were searching, they stumbled upon a withering peony. Henry who saw it first, didn't care for it, so he went forth in search of the mission. While Ethan took that peony flower back and nurtured it. Rumor was that the peony flower was the dead girl's spirit. For some unknown reason the powers of the phoenix passed onto him. Some believe that since there was no more descendent, the powers went to him since he took care of the flower. The answer is still unclear.”“So, my grandfather was the first to have the phoenix’s power without being a direct descendent?”“Yes. And one thing is for sure, he is also a part of the Vermilion Bird Clan who is closely related to the Phoenix as well. So, for a while, that was also another thought that the phoenix choose him.”“That is true.”"Your grandfather practiced the phoenix's power in secret, never revealing to anyone he have the power. Only Henry knew.""Of course, that man would know." "One day Henry asked your grandfather to borrow
“GRANDFATHER!” Shouted Eric. He spat out blood as his poison surged through his body. The poison he accidentally ingested five years ago is slowly working its way through his body. He could feel the coldness tinglingly in his fingertips. The hotness was scorching in his chest. Grunting in pain as he fell down onto his knees and vomited blood. This strange poison is slowly making its way through his body. How he got this poison is still unknown. By the time he realized he was poison, it was already too late, for it was embedded in his blood. “Eric! We got to retreat!” shouted Kevin.Eric saw that many of his men was dying, and some were heavily wounded. His grandfather who came to help with the war was also badly injured. "We can't hold onto the provisions! We must leave it," said John. "Let them have it," exclaimed Kevin trying to fight off more demons. “RETREAT!” shouted Eric. Everyone stopped fighting and returned back to the military camp. He frowned in worry as he saw the so
"Prince Eric?" Eric became paralyzed. Even her voice was captivating. He gasped at the beautiful woman in front of him. Kevin, who was standing next to Eric, nodded. However, he heard no movement . He looked around and saw that that no one else was saying anything but staring intensely at Ruby. He looked around and was confused by the men's reactions. Everyone was looking at the little beauty in front of them as if they were in a trance. He scratched his head. He too have seen many beauties, but not as beautiful as Ruby, however for everyone to just look at her in silence was a bit shocking to him. Tilting his head, he looked at Eric. Eric, like the rest of them, didn’t blink. He too, appeared to be immobilized as well. Realizing no one was moving, he nudged Eric. Expecting Eric to move since he hated her the most, but Eric didn’t budge. He was surprised and stared at him while frowning. Eric was still staring at Ruby. Annoyed, he elbowed Eric on the side and said, “Eric?”Eric, wh
...He have not seen a lot of women with big boobs, and to see Ruby with them he was happy. Even though he wish they weren't so revealing, he will let it slide for now. He silently smiled as he was satisfied with her beauty and looks. Eric gasped as he caught himself admiring her. Embarrassed, he looked away. A cough came from the tent and sounding familiar to her, Ruby quickly ran to the tent. “Godfather,” said Ruby.“Ruby!” exclaimed her Godfather.She ran to the bed and hugged him.Eric walked into the tent along with his three commanders.“How are you doing?”“I’m fine. Now that you are here, I have someone I can depend on. Unlike someone over here,” as he was eyeing Eric annoyingly.Clearing her throat she said, “Do you want anything to eat?”“Oh, can you make me one of your soup? I’m dying to try something else besides boil potatoes.”“Potatoes are good.”"Really?""Yes."“Alright than I trust you.""Okay.""Well, now that you are here, you will have to take care of me. Unlike so
The wind blew, and her hair shifted around her beautiful face. As she brushed her hair behind her ear she looked up at Eric. Her blue eyes shimmering at him. Nearly losing himself at the sight of her beauty again, he silently gasped. Staring at her for a moment to intake her beauty. He blinked a few times before handing his bowl to her. His hands was shaking invisibly. As Ruby was about to grab another soldier’s bowl, someone handed his bowl to her. She stared at the hand. Ruby frowned as it looked familiar and looked up. She then realized who it was, her eyes met his for a brief moment. She took his bowl and filled it up with soup and handed it back to him.The rest of his men also follow suit.As he was walking away, he heard Kevin said, “Miss Scarlet, your soup smells good.”“Thanks. I hope it taste as good as it smells,” replied Ruby.“Of course, it does Miss Scarlet. It tasted very good,” said the soldiers who had already finished their soup.He turned back to look at her. Eric t
“What are you doing here?” asked Eric. Startled, Ruby let out a scream. Looking at him with shocking eyes, Ruby said, “You scared me.”Eric stared at her. He was admiring her beautiful look and her gorgeous body. His thoughts was telling him to take her by the waist and pin her down on the ground. As he is on top of her, strip off all of her clothes and make love to her while they were alone. His manhood leap in joy. She is his fiancée, so he have every right to touch her. "What are you doing?" asked Eric walking closer to her. "It was getting hot, so I was just trying to cool off by taking off my-my coat," replied Ruby. She pulled her clothes to cover herself. Eric nearly smiled as he admired her trying to cover herself. Ruby looked up at him as he was still staring at her. Keeping a straight face he said, “Why are you here?”“I’m picking up herbs.”“You know herbs as well?”“Yes. I did grow up in the mountain, so it’s common for me to know.”Eric didn’t reply.Ruby handed him h
Eric stared at them with frustration. A little spark of jealousy came at him as he saw her blush at John. When he saw John handing the umbrella to her, he wanted her to deny it. However, Ruby with her beautiful, blushed face, accepted it from him. Disappointed, he muttered to himself, "Whatever." She’s probably running around with other men trying to attract his attention. She was trying to make him jealous. Well, he wasn’t going to fall for it. Huffing, he walked away. Ruby took his umbrella but hesitated on using it. She said, “I’m nearly done now, so I won’t be needing it. Thanks for the consideration.” She handed the umbrella back to John. John clenched his hand hard against the umbrella. Finishing up her last rinse of the herbs she put it back in her basket. She got up and started to leave. "Is it because of what happened all those years ago?" asked John.“What?” questioned Ruby. "You know, when my grandfather kicked you out of the clan."Ruby was surprised that John still
