"His Highness?" Axel furrowed
brows.
"The king, my prince," the guard said
"Theodore must explain this nonsense, come along brother," Haisley said and pulled Axel towards Theodore's room.
**********
"What do you mean they're gonna kill her!" Haisley screamed at Theodore. Axel was still in shock from what he said.
They were going to kill her?
But why?
"Haisley, this is royal business"
"and aren't I royal?" She snarled. She didn't like Theodore. He had always been the proud one of her brothers.
"You'll get to make royal decisions when you become the queen, of another kingdom" he muttered.
"FOR THE LAST TIME THEODORE, Nobody is contesting for the throne with you, we all know you're gonna be king" Haisley gritted and Axel squeezed her hand to calm her down.
Theodore shot Axel a glare and scoffed. "Of course, I'm gonna be king, I mean I brought the she-devil to her knees and I did the impossible" he boasted proudly. Now it was Haisley's turn to scoff.
"You're so dumb, Theo"
"That's crown prince Theodore to you" he interrupted rudely " and you do not have any right to call the future king of Devon dumb"
"Well THEO as the only princess of Devon, I hereby announce Crown Prince Theodore dumb!" She mocked.
"I'm gonna make sure the 'She-devil' survives your evil plan" She stated and stormed out of the room.
"You need to caution your sister" Theodore spat at Axel who had been watching the whole drama in silence.
"She's your sister too" Axel muttered lowly.
"Not from the same mother," Theodore said.
"Are you really going to kill her?" Axel said ignoring his statement
"That She-devil has caused enough harm on this kingdom. She has to go" Theodore stated.
"what harm did she cause, She only stole some things"
"She's a thief!"
"Not all thieves are sentenced to death"
"This conversation is over Axel!" Theodore said.
**********
Axel and Haisley walked into the dark dungeon. They had ordered the guard to let them see the strange girl.
"This place smells horrible" Haisley stated.
"Looks horrible too!"
"That's why it's a dungeon, not a princess room," Axel said.
"There she is, your majesty. Be careful, she's dangerous" The guard said and bowed before walking back to his stationed post.
A girl dressed in a black torn dress was seated on the floor of the dungeon. A huge black feather-like wing spread covering her body like a blanket. Her silver-white hair covered her face and Axel couldn't stop looking at her petty figure.
"She looks so small and young" Haisley gasped.
"She looks your age" Axel states his gaze not leaving the lady.
At the sound of strange voices, Kali's eyes snapped open. "She's awake!" Haisley noticed.
Axel stared at the frightened girl. She looked ...... Beautiful. She kept moving back slowly away from the humans.
"Aren't demons supposed to look hideous? She looks so...... Beautiful"
Haisley wasn't lying. The strange girl with wings looked pretty even as she was dressed in rags.
"Probably the angel blood in her that's making her so pretty" Axel mumbled.
"Thought you don't believe in them" Nicole teased.
Her eyes change from blue-grey to green in fear.
Kali was frightened. Who were these people?
Were they here to hurt her?
"Did her eyes just change it's colours?" Haisley gasp.
"Please..... Please don't hurt me, I'm sorry please let me go" Kali said desperately. She couldn't believe she slept off, she must have been exhausted from threatening and trying to scare the humans which didn't work. They had dumped her in this cold dark room with iron bars that looked like it was underground.
She had even tried to create fire, but she couldn't understand her powers. Nothing worked, and Kali was frustrated.
Since her powers and threats didn't work, she resorted to a plan B. Acting and pleading, maybe they'd have mercy and let her go. She just needed one person to help her escape, then she could go to Luna. Probably run as far away from this Kingdom as possible.
Axel was surprised at how innocent she looked and sounded.
Is this the same girl they said to have caused harm to Devon?
Is this the same girl tagged to be dangerous?
"Please let me go..... Luna must be in pain. She was shot, I have to go to her" She tried her best to act all teary and sorry. Luna was strong, she was sure one arrow on her leg wouldn't bring her down. At least till she got to her.
"Who is Luna?" Haisley question. Axel stared at his sister in amusement. She looked so comfortable talking to the 'She-devil'.
"She's dying" Kali whispered her eyes widening. She had a connection with the wolf, she could feel it. Something had happened to Luna. She had to get out of there as fast as she could.
"I can feel it, She'll die if I don't get to her on time. Please, she's the only family I have" She said miserably.
"We can't do anything, can't you use your powers or something to get out of here," Haisley said.
"Powers? I don't have any powers. Is that why I'm here? You want my powers?"
"You're here 'cause my brother wants to kill you," she said casually.
"Haisley!" Axel exclaimed.
"You want to kill me?" Her innocent eyes widened as she stared at Axel. These humans wanted to get rid of her. And she didn't even do anything. Her eyes were shining green as her face was morphed in fear.
"Oh no not him, Theo," Haisley said.
"I don't have time for this!" Kali yelled suddenly losing her patience as her eyes went from green to red. something told her something terrible had happened to Luna. She needed to get to her.
"Well that's freaky" Haisley exclaimed seeing her eyes change colors again.
"Let me go human!" Her voice echoed in the dungeon.
Luna was dying, she could feel it. She heard her howl in pain as her blood began to boil. These humans were keeping her from her best friend.
Kali glared at the iron gates keeping her in the small dark room. Her eyes were shining red.
"What's happening to her?' Haisley whispered.
The iron gates started...... Melting?
"Good heavens are.. are the gate melting" Haisley exclaimed.
"Haisley, we have to go," Axel said moving away from the girl with shining red.
Soon, the gates of the cell melted as both the prince and princess stared in shock. Kali stepped out, her anger replaced by worry. Luna was dying with every second passing by.
She ran past the two royalties, both unable to do anything but stare. She got to the exit of the dungeon and met two guards there. All her fear had turned into anger. The two guards suddenly fell asleep. Kali, herself was surprised but she didn't have time to think about it as she started running. She didn't know anywhere in the palace. The whole building itself looked strange to her.
It was gigantic compared to the little hut she lived in with Nyx and Luna.
To her surprise, everyone she came across fell and started sleeping. It was like she was some kind of sleeping drug to whoever she came across but all she could think of was LUNA as she made her way to the forest
