Chapter 13
4 YEARS LATER *King carman P.O.V It’s been four years now since we came back from the human world. After the first attack we got from the house full of children I can’t remember what it was called. I realized that taking down those children would take longer that I thought. I used one of my soldiers as a spy for the night and he confirmed that indeed there was one of them, a girl, who looked exactly like my late wife. I was dumbstruck after hearing this, so we really had a child but my wife couldn’t live to see this day. I regretted the day I bought this imposter living in my house that minute claiming to be the princess. So she wasn’t the heir to my throne after all, from the very first she clicked three years I was making it clear that she wasn’t my child even when my wife kicked against it so I don’t think she should be offended hearing that she’s not going to be the heir apparent. I felt a sting of guilt for murdering the rulers of the alpha just to protect this secret. But who am I to blame myself, I only did those things out of fear and desperation. I really hope they forgive me but I still can’t let them find out their true identity. I’ve been drafting out some ways to give them a befitting burial before their packs find out about it. I need to act faster than ever. Too many years have been wasted now is the time to take action. HUMAN WORLD Kim’s P.O.V I sat on my bed lost in my thought at mind was going through random things. Surprising how 4 long years had gone by since the werewolf man incident I still couldn’t forget his words. ‘ if you weren’t a girl I would have said you are king Liam’ So that was my Father’s name? Liam, it’s a nice name. I bet he was really cute so sad I didn’t get to meet him nor my mom because they are both dead. A death we still don’t know the cause of. How I always prayed that I find out the truth each passing day, I won’t forgive your killer dad, I won’t. I was jolted back to reality when I heard HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! I turned to see Mrs. Lydia, Emerald, Kelly and the other children from the orphanage, wishing me and Kelly a happy birthday. Is it I’ll moon today? Wow I still feel like a baby whenever Mrs. Lydia throws an in-house birthday party for us. Happy massive 20 year s birthday my big baby, Mrs. Lydia said. Mrs Lydia? You know I’m not a baby anymore, right? But you will forever be my baby now you both should put off the candles, without arguing. Haha…. Mrs Lydia you know we don’t do that anymore. I hope so, she said while Everyone burst out laughing. We were all seated in the living room when I said. Mrs. Lydia, can you please give us a day out? In celebration of our birthday? No. Why!!! We all chorus. What if something else happens again and you go about flaunting your powers, uh? Nothing is going to happen Mrs. Lydia I promise. Yes Mrs. Lydia we promise, we are not that naive teenagers anymore. please….. Ok fine, but be back before dinner. Ok, no problem. We all leaped for joy as we went into our various rooms to get changed. Soln we were done and we went out for today's celebration. We went to an amusement park, took different turns of the roller coaster, went to the arcade, played games and did many other fun things. On our way back home we saw a soothsayer place which read boldly COME SEE YOUR FUTURE PAST AND PRESENT RIGHT BEFORE YOUR EYES. Let's check this out… Emerald said. What!! Hell no. Do you really want to see…. Emerald gave me an eyebrow that says come on girl I can already see the future Oh… right you can already see the future. And who knows maybe we can find out something about our past or ancestors or something. What do you think of Kelly? I think it’s a good idea. Yeah of course you think so Not now Kim, please not now. Emerald said What?? I'm just saying She held my hand as we crossed to check out the place. We got inside but I was a bit scared, everywhere was so spooky and dark. Why is everywhere spooky Emerald? Seriously Kim? How do you expect a place like ‘ this’ to be? Massive chandelier lights, and massive disco bulbs? Common Kim, grow up. I shook the feeling off and we continued walking. The place was larger inside than when we viewed it from outside. There were different concoctions, dried spooky leaves and weird dolls hanging on the walls. I was still checking the place out when we heard a loud spooky voice. Welcome, my dear king and queens, it's a pleasure to have royal blood in my midst. How do you know we are Royals? Ughhhh….. Kim…. Emerald groaned out of frustrated Do you realize where we are? This is like their job. Sorry, my bad. Please have your seat. We sat on an old rug on the floor close to the table where there were white pearls and some other things I couldn’t name. So what do you three like to see about yourselves? Our parents, the life of our parents and how they died, I said in haste. I can’t wait to see who my parents' killer was as I won’t forgive them. They must pay. Hey girl, chill, so much from someone who didn’t want to come here. I’m sorry I’m just eager to know who my parents' killer was, as I won’t forgive them. Me too, Kelly said with pure furry written all over him. You both might want to watch what you say, ( he laughs menacingly) Ok then, the story of your past coming right up, he said as everywhere suddenly went dark.
