A fairytale
It's been six years of peace in the land of Gorgin. king Jonath rule with utmost wisdom and fairness since his enthronement. A man of humble roots who rose up to become a well respected king.
Today was another day of politics for King Jonath. Tired and a bit weak, he walked in to his chamber, heading straight for his kingly bed to rest. As he lays down his head, she came into his mind, he jumped up as he recollects what he must do after finishing his duties in the throne room. He rushed towards a door by the far left corner of his room, he walked in and immediately locked eyes with her in the mirror. The witches smile at him and said "Jonath, did you forget about me again?"
"I could never do that my lady, my body was tired so I forget for just a moment".he said.
"be grateful that I am in a good mood today, by this time tomorrow, I will be having my meal". she looked at him mischievously and licked her lips. Jonath boiled with anger.
"who would it be this time?" he asked with pain in his voice.
"relax, I won't be eating anymore of your wives, maybe a little girl of 9 would do. I have had enough of unclean women whom you have defiled on your bed!"
"My lady, I can't kill a child, please don't make me more of a monster than I already am". He knelt before the mirror, looking at the lady with so much pain in his eye.
"oh please! I have given you all you ever wanted, made you a king! A nobody like you became the king of Gorgin, it's all thanks to me. I did it all! I did it all!" she screamed as her eyes turned blood red and her teeth turned to fangs.
Jonath trembled with fear and almost peed himself. "I am sorry, I am sorry, I didn't mean to anger you in anyway. please forgive me. I will do exactly what you want".
"As you should my darling! just as I gave all this to you, I could still take it from you and throw you back to the streets where I picked you!" she said, the anger subsiding from her face.
"please forgive me"
"get out of my sight, you have displeased me today, I don't want to see you till you bring me a little girl! if you fail me, I will destroy you".
Jonath nodded in resignation, he stood up began to walk way, just as he was about to exit the door, she said
" the daughter of your right hand man would do" she laughed and watched as he walked away.
Jonath went back to his bed and reminisced on all the witch just told him. Even before the D day, she already knows who she wants to feed on. she already picked Mary,the daughter of his right-hand man. He bent over his head and wept.
