Alice saw things around them started changing including the weather. Alice became scared."Rebecca, what is going on? why is everything changing?." She said holding Rebecca arm tightly looking around the forest.Rebecca turned to look at the scared Alice, and gave her a simple smile. "Alice, dear , welcome to edin the forest of exchange.""What?! Edin? Why do you call the forest edin and why is it so strange here?.""I guess you do not know the mystery behind the forest, well I will tell you a little story while we make our journey to Hut.""Hut? what hut are you talking about?.""Alice dear you ask too many questions and I must warn you no matter anything keep your mind straight and try to focus on why we are here." "Okay." Alice cluelessly answered."Do you know why the forest is called edin the forest of exchange and everything in here is different from the outside view?""No I do not.""Then I will tell you. You see, long ago the forest used to be peaceful and a lot of people coul
Rebecca realized that Alice was now scared of her so she brought the smile back on her face "Sorry for acting that way.""It is fine." Alice said, trying to hide her fear. "So what made the forest this way? What happened here? Why is the forest so scary? People do not even come in here anymore because it has become forbidden to be here."Alice said this time with caution as she looked at Rebecca's face to see if Rebecca would react the way she did earlier, but she just answered her plainly."Hmmm like I said earlier, the forest was peaceful and it made a lot of people's wishes come true. All of their desires were fulfilled. Not until the war between Halon and Zeyan. a lot of blood was spilled, changing the entire existence of this place and at the same time making the forest blood thirsty. Collecting humans as an exchange of what it gives.""How? why? So what am I going to make as an exchange then if it requires humans for an exchange? I have no one to give.""Clam down Alice, your cas
"Alice, how did you escape from Thomas? I know you guys are meant to be in the market together by now.""Ohh that? I had to fake a sickness and he was insisting on taking care of me then I remembered I was going to deliver some bananas to Mrs Afrend so I had no choice but to send him there.""Hmm what a bad wife." Rebecca said with a smile on her face."Yeah. I know, right?They both laughed out loud."Finally. Here we are." Rebecca said as they stood before the hut."Yeah fi...nal...ly.." Alice said, looking at the hut strangely."It is strange huh?" Rebecca asked, as if she was reading Alice's mind."Yeah it is. So we came all the way for this?""Ohhh dear Alice like I said, do not let what you see deceive you." Rebecca said, patting Alice's hair.Rebecca opens the door to the hut so Alice can go in, but Alice refuses."What? You want me to go into this old looking house? No Way Rebecca I can not.""Then let us go in together if that is what you want.""Yes, let us go in together."A
Alice continued to admire the place as they made their way to the mansion. She wished her husband was with her to see the beauty of the forest. But her husband Thomas will be the last person to enter the forest and she can never make a mistake of letting him know about her visit to the forest. It is better to save her marriage, because she could not lose Thomas for anything. While walking Alice felt tired and decided to tell Rebecca how tired she was. That she started feeling her heart beating fast. She needed to rest."Rebecca, I am so tired we have been walking for a while now I need to rest please." She said hoping Rebecca will agree to it."Alright then take a rest I will look around if I can find something for us to eat I guess you must be hungry too." Rebecca replied, looking at the tired Alice. "Alice, are you sure you are fine? Your face looks pale.""Yes Rebecca I am. I just need to rest, I think the herbs I took so I can look sick are getting back at me, I will be fine. And
She whispered to Rebecca's ear's "why are we taking this way?" But before Rebecca could answer, lushly did."Because it is the shortest way to the mansion, Alice." Lushly answered not turning back as she kept walking.Alice was surprised as she mentioned her name."How did you…how did you know my name?"Lushly turned to them, making Rebecca and Alice that was behind her to stop on their tracks. Because nothing is hidden in the heart of Edin. Here we are." She said pointing at the mansion before them.Alice raised her head up to look at the big and high building in front of her. Alice whined her eyes in shock as she looked at the building."Am I dreaming? This is so amazing it is even more beautiful than the royal palace." She said, scanning the building."Yes it is. and I told you so." Rebecca answered.Lushly cut in. "I will leave you here as my assistant will take you to meet the Goddess. She said moving her gesture towards a young lady that approached them."This is Ari, she will ta
"Then worry not. I do not require much and you do not have to do it now, when you get pregnant I want you to return and I will tell you of your exchange." She said, still having that devilish smirk.Alice breathe in relief and also in fear of what her exchange might be."So what do I do to get pregnant?""Haha nothing much Alice. All you need to do is to make love to your husband tonight and the rest is done.""Really? That simple?""Yes or do you want something else?""Uhmm no that would not be necessary.""Then baby you shall have. And I do not need to warn you of the danger if you do not return to know your exchange.""Okay Goddess sofira. Thank you."Alice was fed with joy knowing that she will soon be called a mother. She imagines the joy in Thomas' face when she tells him that she is pregnant."Then if that is all I will like to take my leave." Alice said with a smile."Sure you are free. But before you leave I will like to see your friend Rebecca, and I will also like you both t
After eating, lushly escort the two to a gateway and soon they make their way out of the forest in no time."I cannot believe we are out of the forest. Am so glad." Alice said with joy on her face."Yeah me too. So let us go so we can prepare the meal we talked about.""Ohh. yeah. it is true." Alice said as they started walking."But first we need to go to the market to get something so we can prepare the meal.""Ohh no I do not have any money with me. How do we do that?"Hmm me too. Okay fine, fine let us go so you can get the money."Okay Rebecca."Alice got home and was extremely happy that her husband is not home yet."Hey Alice, is Thomas home yet?""Not at all. But I guess he should be close so we better hurry up to the market because if he comes back to meet me here he won't let me out of his sight.""Haha such a sweet love.""Haha I know right? Alright let us go, I have got the money.""Alright Alice."The two walk hand in hand to the market as people begin to know them as best
Alice was done washing the dishes so she went to the room to freshen up before joining Thomas on the bed. But Thomas was already waiting for her on the bed as he promised earlier, when he saw her walking inside, a lustful smile creeped on his lips like he had seen a bag of gold coins."I see you are done with the dishes?" He asked, staring at Alice with wanting eyes as he got up from the bed and walked close to her, hugging her from behind, placing his arms around her waist and locking his fingers together."Yes Mr Thomas, I am done with the dishes." "That is nice, so where were we?" He asked, as he whispered close to her ear and his hot breath fell upon her neck."Hahaha can I have a minute? I need to take my bath. I am all sweaty Thomas dear." She said, as she undressed herself."Then why don't we bath together? It will be so lovely, you know?" He asked, turning her to him. He cups her cheeks as he locks his lips with hers in a soft kiss.Alice kissed him back as she placed her arm
