Who is Cory?
Ella’s Pov
I was shocked beyond my imagination, her words were really surprising.
But can it be true? Is the Queen Mother right? Should I obey her and start monitoring Cory?
“But wait! How is it even possible!?” I asked myself numerous times, as I placed around the room in horror. I kept stamping my foot on the ground, making sure that I vexed my anger on something.
I want to be removed from the darkness, I want to know what is truly happening! I need to clear my head!
Believe me, I don’t doubt my sister, not her words, I know that she hears from the moon goddess, but this is Cory that we are talking about.
I have known him for over seventeen years now, and I have never for once suspected him. He hasn’t given me any reason to doubt him.
Although sometimes I wonder why he is not getting old, he told me that his parents were powerful people, and they stopped him from aging when he reached a particular age.
I didn’t really buy it at first, but I also had no reason to doubt his words.
Why won’t I even trust my husband? His life is very simple; he is a hunter, and he doesn’t stay out late.
During our seventeen years of marriage, I have never stopped loving him. I envy the type of humble heart he had, he never quarreled for too long. Even when I am the one at fault, he still apologizes, just because he wants peace to reign.
Well we do have light quarrels sometimes, but our ability to handle it made us the happy couple that we are.
I love and trust him, even more than I trust myself. He is everything that I have ever wanted in a man, and he helped me to understand the real meaning of love.
He’s caring, loving, honest, humble, respectful, gentle, and although sometimes he could be harsh and cold. I understand his every mood, and I know how to calm him down.
“Ahh!” I sighed, and my bracelet suddenly rang.
(Sometimes when my sisters wanted to communicate with me, they send messages to magical bracelets)
Once it rings, it means there is something important we need to talk about, and I immediately report back to duty.
On this particular day, I was extra careful, and I made sure that I left no stone unturned. I locked all the doors, I closed the windows, and I closed all the house curtains.
After making sure that everywhere was safe, I sat down on a chair in the living room, and I gently closed my eyes.
My mind drifted away and traveled on a perilous journey.
My body was dead to the touches of earth, and its people.
Another realm
When I arrived in the throne hall, I was surprised to see my sister, along with four other women.
I bowed down, and went on my knees.
They all looked worried, and two of them were looking at me angrily.
*What have I done this time?* I wondered and continuously asked myself.
“Sisters, is everything alright?” I asked them.
(We were all sisters under the moon)
“You! So you dared to show your face! Hmm, after all the horrible things you have done!” Calame, one of the elders of the guardian angels yelled at me angrily. “What were you doing?! You have failed!” She screamed, and I batted my eyes curiously.
“Failed? What do you mean, sister Calame?” I asked curiously. I was confused and worried at the same time because the look on everyone’s faces was not friendly at all.
“You mutt…”
“Hush!” Samantha cautioned Selena before she could complete her hateful speech.
Selena didn’t give up, and she continued her screaming. “You guys are spoiling her too much!” She yelled, and hissed loudly.
I could see the death glares from her side, and I knew that she was thinking of strangling me.
“I understand that she is your sister and the last born, but at least try and understand, Yasmine is our major priority! Nothing must happen to her, if we want our world to survive!” She declared.
The Queen mother kept quiet, and I hated to see her quiet, she must be confused about who to support.
But, I also didn’t know what I did wrong, yet they kept yelling at me.
“Sisters, what’s going on?” I asked impatiently, and they all sighed.
“Lora, Luna was attacked by a team of hunters,” Ruth said with a sad voice. And I was shocked beyond words.
“What! My precious daughter was attacked?! When? By who?!” I asked in shock, and my level of worry increased greatly.
“Oh stop the pretense!” Calame hissed at me, “Also, she is not your daughter, she is your queen, and most especially your responsibility!” She said angrily.
Okay, I understand the reason for Calame’s behavior, she hates me naturally, but her hatred for me increased when my sisters sent me out for this mission.
She was so jealous that day, and since then she had been lamenting that my sisters were partial in their decision. She said that they choose me, because I belong to their bloodline.
It’s not like I care about what she thinks though, to me she is a barking dog, looking for affectionate attention.
“Calame, Selena! You guys should calm down, and all of you should keep quiet!” Rocky reprimanded everyone in the room. And the hall became quiet immediately.
“And for your information, Lora is Luna’s mother. Just think about it, she raised her up, and she has been treating her well for over twenty years now. So she has every right to be her mother.”. The Queen mother said, and my other sisters nodded in agreement.
“If I was given the chance I would have raised her better,” Calame scoffed, and I couldn’t help but smile inwardly.
*Raised her better? In your dreams. What a boring joke, I am sure that if she is given the opportunity,
Yasmine would be disrespectful and rude, just like her.*
I didn’t voice out my opinion, I kept quiet, patiently waiting for my sisters’ words.
They would defend and support me, that I am very sure of.From NôvelDrama.Org.
