Dreamstress

CHAPTER 8: DREAMS THAT ARE VISIONS

" I'm sorry but I had to you have to believe me, I had to" the girl sobbed. " I do understand and I believe you are sorry after all you've been punished" I said with a soft gaze.

"you need to eat you can tell me all about it after the food, no?"I pushed the tray towards her and we ate together.

I made sure that we finished the portion I had rationed her.

" they have my family that's why I did it, to save my family " the girl bowed her head and I noticed her hair style.

I paused in my tracks of going to drop the tray. " who has your family?" the guard that was assigned to us was standing not so far away.

" they tortured my mum and little sister and princess mist laughed it off," she looked like she was in a trance but I didn't do anything to stop her narration.

"she said that as long as I did what they said my family would be safe." she paused as tears fell.

"but the contract was violated at the expense of my younger brother and mother's death and my younger sister was defiled" the tears flowed and i felt the urge to cry.

I want to revenge. but, I have to do this to ensure I meet someone who can help me. My dad is working for them. the only family I have left is my Younger sister and soulmate who are their slaves" she said.

" give me sometime to drop this tray and call the imperial crown prince he hasn't allowed for your entry into the palace but with what you have told me you might earn security " the bell for the servants lunch rang.

"take your time miss. I am ever so indebted to your kindness"she said.

"I'm Julianna you can call me that we're all subjects to inhuman ruling one way or the other" I smiled sadly.

the girls eyes widened and she scanned me."it's so comical," she scoffed "the person I was told to capture that I'm risking my safety for is the same person to offer the most unforgivably kind of love" the tears rolled down slowly.

"No matter what happens save them. Go tell the imperial crown prince I await his order to know if I still have the right to be heared"

I stood and went away, I hastily returned the tray to the kitchen despite the crowd of servants going in and out of the kitchen and ran to the imperial crown prince room - I was literally running.

I knocked on the door leading into the princes' room, located in the fourth quarter of the empire. "come in" i entered, after stably comforting myself to stop being afraid of the heir I knelt," imperial crown prince she has told me" I said.

He signalled that I should come closer and I did " go on" he said I liked that he wasn't taking the chances of someone overhearing us.

i told him everything the girl told me except the part about them wanting me; who were the them? I still don't know but according to my dream it should be the black heart nation.

"And she didn't tell you this openly?" the prince asked and I rushed out of his room. if my dreams were true which they always were that meant that I was expecting her dead.

the heir followed behind me.

when I got outside I saw the girl laying in her own pool of blood and the guard that was here nowhere to be seen.

An involuntary cry escaped my lips as I rushed to her body.

Maybe, Just maybe I could use my half my powers to stabilize her enough for a physician or whoever to get here.

" stay with me" the heir had given called the attention of a few guards and ordered for the imperial physician.

I closed my eyes to concentrate despite the hot, stinging tears that flowed from my eyelids. I was seeing her memories signs that she would be dead before help would get to her.

"the temporate in two years, save them" I was close enough to hear her last words. the memories faded- she was gone.

My emotions went limp as tears streamed down my eyes.

she was given a befitting maid burial. surprisingly, at my request and the guard who was to protect us died as well and they were buried in the servants burial ground any servant that died during duty would be buried in the servants cemetery.

it seemed I was the only sad one,- I was no longer crying. why would anyone cry for a maid who they finalized is a bad person but was a good girl.

I didn't need to look for her family, sooner or later, my dreams which were actually visions would reveal clues she did say I had two years. I didn't even know her family's name.

why wasn't I named the vision stress or probably seer?.
