Genevieve's eyes widened in shock and then her face was filled with pain. Her face turned pale as Nicole twisted her claws in Genevieve's chest."W...what... How..." Genevieve tried to say but then her eyes were starting to close. Nicole's eyes shone with victory and her full attention was on Genevieve.However, the witch wasn't about to give up. In the next second, she stretched her hands and dark light shot out from her fingers.Nicole moved to the side quickly, however, she was still hit by the light from one finger. "Ahhhh..." Nicole screamed as she was pushed a few feets away. She couldn't steady herself and she fell from the altar.Her back hit the ground with a loud thud and she groaned in pain. On the other hand, Genevieve's eyes were half closed. But then she could still stand on her wobbly feet.Her hand clutched her chest which was dripping with blood.She tried to heal herself but it was slow.At this point, she could heal herself with her powers because she was too wea

"Nicole!" Roman yelled, with a surprised expression on his face. Quickly, he rushed toward the bed with a happy look on his face."Are you okay?" He asked, immediately he got to her side. He sat on the bed, slowly and looked straight at her.A frown formed on his face when he realized he couldn't even touch her skin, to check her temperature. Everywhere was covered.However, Nicole continued to look at him, listlessly.Roman was a bit confused as to why she was like that. He was about to mind-link the guards to get the healer but then he saw her moving. "What do you want?" He asked, holding onto her. He didn't want to hold on too tightly because of her wounds."W...a..." Nicole tried to say but it was hard forming a word. Her lips were cracked and her throat felt clogged. The bandage around her body was too uncomfortable and her brain had been dormant for days. "You need water?" Roman asked, immediately after he reasoned a little bit.Nicole nodded slowly and immediately he dashed

"Genevieve?" Roman asked back with an uncomfortable look on his face. There was a frown on his face and it deepened.He didn't feel good that Nicole was asking about her. "Does she not trust me?" He asked himself."Yes, is she really dead?" She asked, with a frown. Her eyes moved, searching Roman's face for any contrary expression."We left her by the riverside." Roman said, and Nicole frowned."Did she really die?" Nicole asked, worriedly. She started to wonder why they would leave her by the riverside, instead of just burying her six feet under the ground."Yes, I killed her myself." He said, without remorse. However, he was curious to know why she would ask about Genevieve now."Does it have anything to do with her dream?" He asked himself."Do you think she might still be alive?" She asked, with wide eyes. She then clutched onto Roman's still-wet shirt. What she had seen in the dream was too vivid and too frightening.Why would a dead person appear to her?"I know she is dead! I

Nicole walked out of the bathroom with a deep frown on her face. She was sure she had seen the dark figure and she did not think she was crazy."Where are you going dressed like that? Do you want to seduce me?" Roman said, to her, standing close to the bed.He looked at her with a hot gaze and he was already undressing her with his eyes.She realized she had walked into the bedroom instead of the closet."You wish!" She said, with a slight hiss, and dashed into the closet. The closet generally belonged to Roman as she was in his room. So, quickly, she took up a white shirt and put it on. Her milky thighs were visible and they would serve as eye candy to him. The thought of the dark figure was however still on her mind.She thought of telling him what she had seen but she didn't want him to think she was crazy.She pushed the thought to the back of her mind and walked out of the closet.Immediately, a delicious scent wafted into her nose and she groaned in pleasure.She was too pr

Roman was sitting on a rocking chair, reading a book while Nicole was a few steps away.Her eyes looked straight ahead, into the mirror before her as the seamstress did her work. They were in the fitting room in the Packhouse. Preparations for the coronation ceremony were ongoing. "You have a really good shape, Luna." The seamstress commented and Nicole let out a smile. "Thank you!" She said, softly. Roman who was sitting behind her raised his head, slightly.He frowned at the seamstress' words. He liked the compliment but he didn't like the feeling that someone was checking out his lover.On the other hand, Nicole saw his actions, and her smile turned into a strained one.Their eyes met in the mirror and the next second, Roman turned his head away. She sighed, tiredly, as she watched the seamstress move around.However, her heart was heavy as there had been tension between her and Roman. Her head rang with his words at the time she had asked to see her parents.At first, he had
