Roseanne is sitting under the large oak tree, concentrating hard. Her inner mind is focused on Gaia who is also quietly following Roseanne’s wavelength.  “Give me your powers, Gaia,” Roseanne speaks in her mind. “I will wield your powers and you will gain control of my body every full moon night to be with your mate. Do it, Gaia.” They are both surrounded by darkness which is almost blinding. Roseanne relaxes herself, ordering her inner mind and Gaia to follow her. Gaia is also trying to align herself with Roseanne, their two minds trying to connect. “I…” Gaia begins as a strange surge of energy starts to engulf her. “I am trying, Roseanne!” Roseanne also feels the force of it which is too much to bear. Her body is shaking as the force of Gaia’s powers nearly to

Roseanne is shocked to see the despicable smile of Venus. The Empress is holding a knife made of pure mercury against Polina’s neck, pressing it hard. Polina tries to withstand the pain of the mercury which is burning through her skin. The Empress used a mercury substance which caused the explosion and the residue lingering in the air is only making Polina’s pain worse.“What do you want?” Roseanne demands. “Let go of my soldier!”“Then come with us, witch!” Venus snarls. Roseanne looks at her in surprise.“How do you-”Venus’ shrill laughter cuts through her words, making her spine chill. “Of course I know it,” Venus claims. “I always k

“AGHHHHH!” Venus’ screams echo the whole palace. She somehow made it back to Ezealyra because she had kept some of her men on standby on the outskirts of Hapsberg. As soon as they heard her screams, they rushed to help their Empress only to find her in an abysmal state. The soldiers raced at top speed, reaching the city of Ezealyra within hours and took her straight to the castle for treatment.She is now lying on her bed, half burnt and screaming in pain. The blisters on her skin are burning her, creating hissing noises as the healer tries to fix them. But no matter what the healer does, the burns are not going.“DO SOMETHING!” Venus shrieks. “HEAL ME!”“I am trying!” The healer exclaims. “But the medicines are not working! The burns are too severe to be h

Leo is running towards the barn when he notices the distant sky. A yellow light is approaching his way at a rapid pace. Then another. And another.The lights have multiplied into hundreds, heading towards the inn at full speed and soon, the birds will arrive with the fireballs. Leo does not waste a single second and runs at full speed. He breaks open the barn and looks around until his eyes fall at a corner.A small boy of around five years old is hiding in the corner, shaking in fear. He is scared and murmuring his mother’s name.“Come with me!” Leo exclaims and carries the child in his arms. The child shrieks, still scared of the stranger but Leo forces the boy into his arms and sprints off, just in time. As soon as he leaves the barn, the first fireball is dropped on it by a pigeon before rapidl

Roseanne wakes up to the cooing of a bird. She sleepily rubs her eyes and looks at the window where a tiny blue light is floating right next to a pretty white pigeon.“Annamaria!” Roseanne laughs as the light flies her way and settles on her shoulder. The bird also lands on her lap, cooing in a cute manner. Roseanne smiles and strokes the bird’s head. Then it strikes her that she is in her nightgown and also notes that she is in her chamber not in Dmitri’s study. Did he bring me here after I fell asleep? She wonders. But where is he?Dmitri is nowhere in sight which makes Roseanne a little anxious. She is about to mindlink with him when the door to her chamber opens and Dmitri enters with a large tray of food for her.“Good morning, my
