“Her powers are dangerous! She is not a white witch!” Hazel felt strong pain in her heart as if someone had stabbed it.
“But she is not dying. I have tried all kinds of poisons. Her body’s immune to them. I have even tried daggers and swords but she is too agile and cunning.
Would she never die?” were they talking about her? She felt the voice coming from close by but she could not sense the presence of any human around her.
Wait! Presence of humans? It took all her strength to open her eyes and look around when she noticed two people, a man and a woman standing near her..
They both had silver eyes and silver hair, witches! Where were they doing here! No! Wait.. what was she doing there.
She noticed that she was not in the palace anymore but in the woods. She was laying on the muddy ground while there was a fire burning the wood near her, giving her and the couple a warmth.
“But she is our daughter. What if we let her live! Since we have tried everything and she is still alive, it only meant that God did not want her to die. Please, Theo, think again. Even Anne is worried for her sister too much.
She is not a kid that I could lie to her all the time. She has a hunch that we are trying to kill Bella!” Anne! Bella.. She had known these names but never knew that they were connected.
“God!” There was mocking laughter and sarcasm in that laughter when the man stared at her body. Hazel closed her eyes instantly as she felt that he would kill her if he found that she was eavesdropping on them.
“She is the devil, Lia.. she is not a witch that loves light. Have you seen her eyes are not silver like us but have black color in them when she uses magic. Her hair is silver, yes! But she did have an affinity for light.
Have you seen how she covered her eyes when we took her to the shrine of our god? She is full of darkness, a threat to our existence.
If you would feel weak by the love of motherhood then i have to confine you with Anne until i found a way to kill her.” There was no love and warmth in his office but fear and hatred for the girl lying there when she heard the muffled cries of the woman beside him.
“Lia! We can have more kids later. But she is not our child. You have to understand.” he held her hair and tugged them behind her ears and caressed her cheeks softly showing love to her when she finally nodded but tears still continued to flow from her eyes.
“Then whose child am I? Are you trying to shrug off your responsibility since I am different from you? Do you not feel ashamed at all?” she felt herself standing and then staring at the couple with cold eyes who looked shocked with their widened eyes and agape mouth.
They were looking like they had never expected her to stand up but why? They were so loud that it was only normal that she woke up from her slumber.
“Did you see that? The demon woke up again even when I fed her Lubruna Tusk Poison. It is the deadliest poison of the world that could kill in a breath!” Hazel was shocked! What did he say? What had he fed her? Her hands instantly reached her throat as she rubbed it.
How could he be so cruel to feed her such a thing and even blamed for her surviving! What a scumbag.
But what surprised her most was, She should have no idea about the position since she had never been to woods. Lord, she had never been out of the palace yet the place did not feel new to her and she knew about the poison as if she had seen it and studied it before.
“Tsk! If you know that I could not die then why are you even trying? You should just give up.” spat the girl with anger as her eyes filled with tears of hatred and anger.
Her hands clenched into a fist and she ran to punch her father to his chest while glaring at him.
“Why don’t you just give up? Why do you hate me so much when I have never hurted you or anyone else? How am i a demon when i even care about ants that i found in the garden while you.. You try to kill your own daughter every way?
You are the demon? You are a devil who had no ounce of pity, love and care for his own blood!” she shouted as she continued to punch him but soon he held her hand and closed his eyes as his lips moved to a spell and soon she found herself bound in chains and ropes that were so tight that her skin scratched and she felt pain.
She winced with pain but the man did not feel any guilt. He continued to look at her with hatred,
“You are a demon and killing a demon is the deed of god. I am only following the path shown to me by god.
And you, if you think that your tears can sway me from the path of goodness then you are in the wrong demon. Now go and die!” He slapped her hard on her cheeks and soon she felt pain on her head.
Blood started to fall on her face and she turned to look back only to see a large wood in the hands of her mother whose eyes were filled with tears and her whole body was trembling.
“Mother, you too want to kill me?” she asked as she felt on the floor. More than the pain of the wound, the hatred of her own kin hurt her when her mother looked away.
“But I will not die.. That is the biggest revenge I can take against you since I still love you!”
