She gasped in shock, "You must believe me, I am your grandmother!"His look towards her didn't change, sadness flashed in her eyes, "I will never do such to you, Aaron." She whispered to him, her voice begging him to believe her."DL was your garndson too, Nana. You had fooled us, gathered us as you did months ago. Our motive was for Alusa's greatness but yours was the throne!" Li stepped forward. He was lean and weak, the chains on his hands clung together and Mei Ling held him tightly. She looked small compared to him. Her once long shinny black hair was now tangled with dirt."I don't know what you are talking about!" Her voice thundered before she sprung her head in Aaron's direction."Your Majesty, can't you see that this is all Lewis's plan against me? Why do I deserve this?" Her eyes pleaded, her eyes looked distraught."Stop accusing my mother, you criminals!" Neil stood up, his stomach tumbling along with
Diamant Too Fast A Pace
The hands around him pulled him back roughly. Someone twisted one of the arrows further into his back. The pain shot in his head, his legs went weak and he crashed against the floor. His scream penetrated through his mask as he curled and uncurled on the floor in pain.Aaron's breath hitched, his chest raising and falling. He raced down the stairs and drew away the mask off his face. He staggered back at the sight of his scar filled face. The warriors had dragged the Twin up, so he was standing although if he wasn't held, he would fall forward.Aaron accessed his scar filled face while the Twin looked back at him with bitterness in his eyes."Pathetic people with faces, your blood wants your death." The cold words melted against his heart and he gritted his teeth. "You are not from here." Aaron said in a voice that was fighting being overcame by the pain of betrayal."This isn't treason either, my loyalty is to whosoever I give it to."Aaron looked at him questionably. Shouldn't he
Diamant How Does Your Medicine Taste
Nana broke into laughter while tears ran down her face. Her tangled red hair had now fallen down her shoulders."Such loyalty to my grandson and yet he has not recognized your dedication for him. I know of your sacrifice..."Malik who was now close to the bars turned slowly to her. He forced himself to stay silent while her eyes held his gaze.Satisfied at having his attention, Nana pushed."I know of the woman, the one you loved. All these sacrifice and all he has done is make you a dog and him, your master."Malik tightened his fists so much that he could slowly feel his hands got limp from restriction of blood flow."I can help you. Let me go and I will give you everything you ever wanted, everything that my grandson has refused..." An angry slap swept across her face making the remaining words died on her tongue. She spat out blood and barred her bloodstained teeth at him. His eyes were filled with raging anger."Your words are like the words of a Witch, they are poison to the ear
Diamant A Bitter Pill To Swallow
"Nein...Nein...my son." Nana stood up quickly but the weight of the chains coupled with her weakness brought her back to the ground. She stood up back, more carefully this time, her face lit with a smile of hope."Mother...." When he came into the view of the little torch the dungeon provided, her smile fell. The corners of his eyes looked sulkened and his eyes were red, like he had been crying."You don't look alright. What happened? Is it about me?" She tried to reach for him but the chains restrained her movement and the heaviness made her drop her hands back. She looked down at her chained hands, her heart heavy with doubt and pain but she looked up at him with hopefulness."Don't worry, I will be out soon. All I need you to do...""You did want to kill him, didn't you?"His silent voice cut her words shut. Her smile slowly fell again and she blinked rapidly."I begged you," he stepped closer to the bars, "I begged you not to touch all I had from Daniella. You know how much I love
Diamant Death's Flamming Jaws
When did Lewis get there? His clothes were tattered, he looked lean and the chains that once held him in bondage were scattered on the floor next to his bare feet.Lewis looked at the prisoners. He had once shared the same prison with them, once had mercy for them yet they had turned against him. Aaron's smile was blinding and Lewis picked the sword from him feebly. It felt like he hadn't held a sword in years. He felt drained of strength that he had to hold the sword with both his hands as he breathed heavily.Aaron turned away, walked up the podium then took his place next to Diamant.Minister Gu stepped forward, his eyes calm, his face relaxed. When he finally got to the beheading stone, a slight sad smile tugged at his lips.

He could hear the crowd muttering but he couldn't even turn to look at them. Why should he? For someone like him who

For a long time, she had beared this heaviness.He must have been here. The room felt so alive, she could almost smell the sharpness of wet wood in the air.Just like Lewis... The teacup clinked as she placed it gently on the table. She wouldn't want him to see her here, as much as she wanted to wrap her arms around him so tight that he would desolve into her, she could feel a great wall had grown between them. Maybe she was no longer his Star, who knows?Just then the door creeked open. A shock wave crossed her body making her stay fixated on a spot.The blast of hot tea rushed into his lungs. He sniffed the air, it smelt like hope, like Clara. Then he saw her and looked away quickly. "I...I was j-just leaving." She made quick uncalculated steps towards the door.

The flickering candle on the candle stand made her calm down, she stood up slowly, feeling dehydrated. Her lips felt dry and and she lifted her hands to her burning throat."It was just a nightmare," she whispered to herself while she gulped down a goblet of water.Something felt awfully wrong with her. It felt like she was loosing her mind. She still remembered what had happened between her and Sunain like a flickering thought seeping into her mind. Was she breaking under pressure?
