Chapter 7

Lyca’s POV

“You can’t get away from me! I’ll track you down even if it means going to the end of the world!” Queen Annabelle screams and laughs. Her hand is covered in blood, and the king’s chopped body is in front of her.

“NO!” I scream and jerk up from lying. While panting, I was stunned for a few seconds. Although it is only a nightmare, it appears to be real.

But it’s true! It occurred last night, “Father… I’m sorry; it’s my fault— If I hadn’t rushed and devised a better plan, you wouldn’t have met such a tragic end… Queen Annabelle will not assassinate you…” As my tears continued to fall, I sobbed.

I’m not sure how long I stayed that way; I just stopped when I heard voices in the distance. Then I was taken aback. “What occurred? I was last night—” I came to a halt and examined my arms. “Can you save me from the black wolf?” I utter as I notice my arm wrapped in a bandage.
