The water was filled with different species of sea creatures. It had different colorful plants growing on the rocks. I looked behind me and everything was black, dead as I knew it, and then I looked forward to the blue water. I was in the middle of the two opposite sides, and I was tempted to go to the clear blue water. I thought Lovette would love it here. I threw my hand to my hair and started pulling at it when a piercing sound passed through my ear. It was like that of a woman screaming—crying. A blurry face of a woman with red hair popped up in my head. None of the females in the sea here have red hair, so it must be from my lost memory. Was she a lover of me? a mother? A daughter? Why can't I see her face? I felt like she was very important to me and a part of me that I never knew existed wanted to find her. I placed my hand forward to pass through it, but I couldn't. It was a wall made out of water. I tried pushing harder to get through it, but it was impenetrable. Frus

This chapter involves rape. Trigger Alert: The door burst open and, standing there, was the King. Fallon and I shrieked back in fear as Micah stormed towards us, and he was seething with anger. "Mi-Micah," I stammered, his name as I pressed the sheet harder on my chest. "Is this what you have been doing while I was away?" He growled out, his claws extended, his features in between a beast and a man. I couldn't say a word as I cowered my head down in shame. When I looked up and behind Micah, standing behind the broken door was Delta Leonardo, with a smirk on his lips. Fallin cried out when Micah pulled her out of the bed, and she cried out when his claws dug into her flesh and blood trailed down her arm. "Is this what you have been fucking while I was battling for my life and thinking about my whore of a mate?" He asked in a growl again and grabbed a fistful of Fallon's hair and yanked her head back and yelled in pain. "Please... stop," Fallon begged Micah, bringing her free arm

The sight of my mother's battered body laying on the floor of the dungeon would forever be in my head. She was almost unrecognizable, but I still knew that it was her. The fact that Micah threatened to kill her if I ever tried to escape made me even angrier, but there was nothing I could do. I had to keep my mother safe.Micah and I were on a horse that would take us to the High mountain since it was a long journey and walking there would take up to two weeks.There was no words shared between the King and I and the tensed atmosphere was suffocating me. The horse stumbled a little from all rocks and gripped Micah's thighs for support and quickly let it go like it had burnt me.The king released a huff but said nothing else and it was silent again. It wasn't long that the night came upon us and I began to have cramps in my legs."I need to take a shit" I spoke after a day of silence between us. Micah pulled the rope of the horse and it came to a halt and he jumped down.I gripped to th

Lovette's POVHastily, I got up and ran deeper into the forest, I ran as fast as my legs could carry me with the mad woman right on my tail. Her laughs were hauntingly as it rang through the woods."Run faster little one run!" She taunts with a mocking laugh.Tears streamed down my face and my breathing become labored. There was a stream up ahead and within moments I got to it. I had no where else to run to and turned around to see the woman just a few feet away from me. "Please..." I begged her as she took a few steps towards me while I took some backwards. I was surprised to see her features changing into that of a younger woman and gasped when I recognized her."It's-it's you!" I gasped and moved deeper into the water. It was the same woman I saw in my dream a few months ago. The one who had the dagger and a red snake around her neck. "What do you want from me?" I beseeched, wondering why she would hunt me at length when I have never wronged her."What do you think?" She asked b

It feels so weird having to ride with Micah on a horse like this-with his right hand placed on my waist while the other, holding the rope of the horse. It has been more than an hour since our intense love making and I was quite tired so I leaned back and rested my head on Micah's shoulder.Micah had asked about the woman who attacked me at the lake and when I described her to him and told him about the dream I had while he was away, he only clenched his fist and jaw and when I asked if he knew her, he said nothing but I suspected she was the one who sent the man to Kill Micah when I first got to the castle."When are we getting there?" I questioned, moving my eyes up to look up at him and I couldn't help but admire his straight jawline. I was already growing tired of this Journey that did not seem to want to end.Micah's lips twitched, he looked down at me for a second before pulling the horse to a stop and I sat up straight, confused as to why we stopped when we haven't got there.He
