The Chosen Queen

Chapter Seventeen

**Dark Haven**

A place of dark enchantment, shadowy figures lurking around the trees.

An aura of malevolent energy surrounding the creepy hut, an eerie silent surrounding the cottages.

The floor was adorned with skulls and dried bone, the haven reeking of blood and the sky shrouded in darkness.

Far from the multiple huts was a hut, a standing hut lying magnificently alone screaming power and danger.

The hut is shrouded in mist, smokes drifting lazily from the chimneys front of the hut and an air of dark magic on the hut thatched roof.

The door to the hut was pushed open, dark smoke lazily drifting out.

A figure stepped out closing her eyes a black shadow emitting from her.

“Feels great to finally be out” the lady yawned scanning her environment.

“So where are we starting from” she smirked moving towards a hut.

“Hey there Old woman” she push the door to a hut entering inside.

“If not the second daughter” the woman inside the hut snickered staring at the person in her hut.

“Second? You still consider the unknown dimwit your son” The lady smirked seating down.

She looked around, the air in hut was reeking of blood and dark magic.

“A Son?” The woman laugh out.

“Oh I’m wrong” the lady chuckled.

“Khaos you should know about the people before you, you are my fourth child” the woman smirked.

“Oh tell me more Arachne” Khaos smirked.

“Don’t be so naive Khaos, I have two sons and a girl before you” Arachne smirked.

“I guess Arachne over here does the Rejuvenation spell” Khaos smirked.

“I’m old by age not by face” Arachne chuckled.

“Gotcha, so what have you been up to” Khaos asked.

“Take a guess what I found out” Arachne cackled maniacally.

“The voice called you again” Eddy asked seeing the hair tied in Mabel wrist.

“That witch” Mabel grits her teeth.

“She doesn’t know who you are, she’s just calling the name given to you from birth” Eddy replied using a wet towel to clean her nose stained with blood.

“I hate that witch” Mabel grits her teeth.

“You mean your mother” Eddy smirked.

“Shut th Fxck” she snapped walking out of his sight.

“Xylara” he ran after her grabbing her wrist.

“Get the fxck off” she retorted snatching her hand from his.

“Fine fine” he raised his two hands in the hair.

“Don’t be snitchy” Mabel snapped before walking away.

“Duhhh…” he ran after her.

Immediately they left, a shadow came out of his hiding place watching them.

••••••

“Kaal…” Calantha called out entering the chamber.

“Over here” Kaal muttered in the study room, Calantha strode towards him.

“I’m confused” she sigh, her hand rounding his neck.

“Come over here” he remarked getting her to sit on his lap.

She hugged him staying there like that.

“It’s fine” Kaal said patting her hair.

“She was not lying I saw her eyes” Calantha sob.

“It’s fine” he said again patting her hair.

Staying in that position for five minueted she finally slipped away from his neck looking at him.

“Do you believe me?” She asked him.

He chuckled wiping her tears, her eyes looking puffy.

“Your nose is red” he smile.

“That’s not the answer to my question Kaal” she rolled her eyes standing up from his lap.

“Come back here” he dragged her to his laps again.

“You believe her that’s why you are not answering me” she said tears brimming in her eyes.

“Queenie, I will get to the bottom of this” he coaxed.

“The red person she was talking about, I once saw a red haired bird before, it was there” she points towards the window.

Kaal followed her hand and it stopped in the window.

‘Harry you know what to do’ Kaal mumbled inwardly.

‘On it’ Harry replied.

“Queenie, how about we go somewhere” he muttered.

“Where?”

“A place no one knows except me, wanna go?” He asked.

“Hmm” she said standing from his lap.

Queen Ivana chamber**

The room was dim making it a little hard to see what’s happening.

Queen Ivana sigh for the upteenth time staring at a portrait.

She went towards the bookshelf in her room, she touched a book there and the shelf moved revealing a dark corridor.

She entered the corridor and the bookshelf closed back, as Queen Ivana was moving the light in the corridor kept shining.

Reaching a door she pricked her thumb and used the thumb to touch the door sensor.

The door opened and she moved closer reaching another door, she bent down placing her bleeding thumb in front of the door and the door opened.

The door opened and she entered a room, the room was dark when she entered.

“It’s Ivana” she muttered and the room automatically divided into two opening a space below the room.

She went down the stairs and the room closed back, she stared at the place she just entered.

It was a room more like an apartment having its room, restroom, kitchen and everything that defines the qualities of an apartment.

“You finally came here” Queen Ivana heard a voice and she shooked.

“I’m not here for you” she retorted going towards the room.

“Whatever” the voice scoffed.

Queen Ivana rolled her eyes entering the room she jam the door.

She stared at the things before her and she sigh.

“Let’s get to work” she muttered packing her hair in a ponytail.

•••••••

King Carrius mounted from his carriage, Only Kaal uses Car while the others don’t.

“King Carrius” the guards bow.

King Carrius ignored them matching inside the mansion, he saw Rylan afar so he matched to where he was.

“Where is my daughter?” King Carrius asked Rylan.

Rylan was shocked to see King Carrius there and he looked around.

“King Carrius” he bow.

“I asked a goddamn question dimwit” King Carrius snorted.

“I’m sorry you can’t see her now” Rylan said.

“What the heck!!!” King Carrius yelled gathering the attention of the maids.

“Yelling, in my own mansion” came Kaal terrifying voice making all of them shiver.

“Supreme Lord” King Carrius bow, staring at the lady beside Kaal.

“You should be looking down not on my woman” Kaal growled.

“I’m sorry” King Carrius muttered still bowing.

“Now get this straight, you should bow to my queen whenever you see her, second you don’t yell at my Regent you are not superior to him, thirdly don’t come here without an invitation and lastly you are not permitted to meet Maude” Kaal thundered.

“But supreme….”

“Guide him out” Kaal said to Rylan cutting Carrius off.

“I don’t repeat myself Carrius” he said leading Calantha outside.

King Carrius grits his teeth staring at their retreating figure, Rylan cleared his throat.

“What!” King Carrius snapped.

“I’m sorry but you don’t want to get manhandled so you can leave gently” Rylan said trying not to sound rude.

“WTF, who gave you the right to speak to me that way” King Carrius snorted.

“You heard it minutes ago now leave, the maids are watching don’t get yourself smugged to the mud” Rylan smirked.

“Shut the fxck up” King Carrius glared at him with disdain walking out.

“The show is over” Rylan stated and the maids find their way.

“Rylan, where is Calantha?” Bianca rushed towards him catching her breaths.

“She went out with Supreme Lord, is there a problem?” Rylan asked.

“Evelyn is bleeding and blue prints is visible on her neck” Bianca said still gasping for air.

“Damn!” Rylan rushed outside but Kaal and Calantha was gone.

“Where is she!” He asked Bianca rushing in back.

“Her room” Bianca stated.

Rylan ran to her room Bianca rushing after him as well.

“Rylan…” came Lily sobs seeing Rylan there.

“What happened to her suddenly” Rylan asked young towards Evelyn.

“She suddenly started bleeding through the ear, I don’t know….the blue print also appeared…” Lily mumbled.

“What’s wrong, I saw you running here?” Edwin asked rushing inside.

“Fxck” Mabel exclaimed seeing Evelyn, she wa switch Edwin when she saw Rylan running so they ran after him.

“I don’t know….” Lily cry out.

Edwin looked at Mabel confused.

“Ahh!!!!” Evelyn scream out blood oozing out more from her ear the blue prints getting larger.

“My powers are t working on her” Rylan groaned.

“It won’t work, please you guys should excuse us” Mabel said.

“Excuse me” Bianca said narrowing her eyes.

“You think I will leave her alone with Maude maid, we are not stupid” Lily said.

“Stop!!!” Evelyn scream out, this time the blood ooz out of her nose.

“Call Calantha the fxck!!!!” Lily yelled.

“She’s not in the mansion” Rylan mumbled.

“I will try calling Supreme Lord” Rylan walk out.

“I said leave this fxcking room before she get killed!!!” Mabel yelled this time.

“Killed by you huh?!!” Lily retorted.

“I don’t care what you say but I’m not letting any harm come to this girl so just get the fxck out of this room” Mabel snapped.

Edwin looked at Mabel and at Evelyn.

‘Is Evelyn a witch or does she have connections to Mabel mother’ he mumbled.

“Get them out of here Edwin” Mabel said seeking the two ladies refusing to go out.

“You should be the one to leave” Bianca retorted.

Mabel glared at her. “If that blue mark should reach her face then she’s gone and you won’t want that and I definitely won’t be taking it easy with you guys if she die so I’m begging now leave…just leave”

“Ladies let her do what she wants” Edwin muttered and the two girls glared at him.

“Please it’s for the best, Mabel won’t harm her, I lay my word” Edwin said.

“If anything happens to her, you are dead” Lily said walking out and the rest followed her.

“Hey!” Mabel rushed towards Evelyn shivering body.

She cut a strand of Evelyn hair tying it on her wrist, the shivering stopped but the blue mark was getting deeper.

Mabel brought out a potion from her pockets.

Opening Evelyn mouth she poured the potion, closing her mouth.

The blue mark stopped, fading bit by bit.

“It’s fine…sister…” Mabel said tears brimming in her eyes as she tuck Evelyn hair behind her ear.

“We would make her pay”

Ravens hood Manor**

“Kaal what’s this place?” Calantha asked looking around and Kaal chuckled behind her.

“Let’s go in” he said, she nods following him.

“Woah” Calantha gasped seeing the house.

The room was warm, the wood used to make the floor was broken, shattered glass on the floor.

The shattered glass was filled with dust, cobweb all over the room.

The candlelight and fireplace were on creating a cozy atmosphere.

“Let’s go over to that room” Calantha muttered and she followed him till they reach from of a room.

The room was closed with a gigantic door, on the door was written.

HARRISON AND ROYALTY CHRONICLES

Entering the room Calantha couldn’t help but gasp again.

The room was nothing like what she saw outside, it was as neat as if it was cleaned minutes ago.

She looked around seeing portraits, she moved closer to the portraits touching them.

“I know them as well through the portrait, they use to lead Suprema” Kaal answered her unasked question.

“The paintings are beautiful” Calantha gushed looking at the paintings after leaving the portraits.

“You think?” Kaal chuckled.

“Yeah, this is the family tree right?” Calantha asked pointing at something in the car end of the room.

“Yeah” Kaal replied.

“Those are people I have never seen, I came here to show you my family chronicles for a reason Calantha” Kaal stated.

“Okay” she replied.

“This is the artifacts” Kaal said and she went to him.

“I’m so jealous of you” Calantha gushed staring at the artifacts.

She frowned seeing a red heirloom and a green relic.

“This? They look familiar” Calantha muttered.

“That’s where you come in Calantha, just figured it out recently so I want to come clean with you” Kaal said staring at her.

“Now I’m confused” she said still looking at the heirloom and relic.

‘Supreme Lord pls come to the mansion’ Kaal heard Rylan calling him.

“Queenie let’s go back I will explain things better to you” he muttered holding her to the car.

The door shut as they left becoming dark, the way it was meant to be.

**Erebus Kingdom**

A kingdom far from all kingdom, no one knows it’s existence. Why?

Because the kingdom existed for one reason.

Both the people and the one leading them is far from normal.

The kingdom looks unkept first everywhere except one place in the kingdom. The Palace.

The palace stood elegantly, more like a mansion as well but it was shrouded in mist.

Dark mist actually.

“Get her here!!” A voice echoed all through the doors and wall of the palace.

A terrifying aura filled the palace, the maids, guard were junketing around avoiding his wrath.

“My Lord, she was trying to run away” a guard brought a lady to a man sitting down.

He has this aura that can kill without even moving a finger.

“Tssk” the voice sounded staring at the lady on her knees.

“Leave me the fxck alone!!!! I’m…..”The lady yelled.

A slap cut across her face before she completed her sentence.

“Ahhh” she winced in pain, her lips busted.

“I dare you to say a word again” the voice said angrily.

“Curse you Leonardo you won’t be successful!!!!” She yelled again.

“I hate that word” he muttered clenching his fist

“Let…me…go” She stuttered feeling her next being tightened.

“Beg for it” the voice said.

“Kill….me and….I will gla…gladly take.:.it” she spat at his face with all her might and the voice chuckled.

“Bring me a dog, let’s see how a dog mate” he said to the guard.

“WTF” the lady snapped.

Evelyn Chamber***

Mabel didn’t leave the room she just stayed glued to the chair staring at Evelyn.

She never knew she had another sister she only knows of one.

“How much secrets is that witch hiding” she grits her teeth.

Evelyn suddenly cough out blood.

Mabel clean the blood with a smile on her face wiping the sweat on her forehead.

Evelyn flutter her eyelids, ooening them bits by bits till she finally opened them.

“Hey you are awake” Mabel smile and Evelyn glared at her weakly.

“What are you doing here, you should be with your w***e of a princess” she grits her teeth.

“Okay this is gonna be a king drama” Mabel mumbled.

“Oh yeah it’s gonna be one” Evelyn snapped.

“Lyn calm down you are still weak” Mabel cooed.

Evelyn glanced at her wrist seeing a hair there, without thinking she removed it.

Immediately the door opened Kaal, Calantha and the rest entering.

“Lynx…….” A voice call out to Evelyn.

“WTF” Evelyn shouted holding her ear tight.

“Why did you remove the hair” Mabel groaned.

“What’s wrong with her” Calantha and Lily rushed to her.

“She was fine minutes ago till she remove the hair” Mabel said and Kaal eyes narrow.

“Is she your sister?” He blurt out and the others looked at him.

“Stop!!!!!!” Evelyn scream out blood oozing out of her nose.

“What are you talking about” Lily scoffed.

Mabel cut a strand of Evelyn hair tying it on her wrist.

The voice whispering to Evelyn stopped immediately and her breath became normal.

“Cally….” Evelyn call out seeing Calantha.

“Hey darling” Calantha rushed to her hugging her.

“You almost killed us” Lily muttered.

After coaxing each other for three minutes they faced Kaal and Mabel.

“Why were you asking Mabel if Eve is her sister?” Lily asked.

“Let’s meet and talk later, I have things to do now” Kaal muttered dragging Calantha with him out.

The others also went out leaving Evelyn, Mabel, Lily and Bianca.

“He said that?” Evelyn asked looking at Mabel.

“It’s a crazy story but what if one day you wake up and discover you are the daughter of the most powerful witch living and you are a witch yourself” Mabel said.

The others in the room choked.

“Excuse me?” Evelyn rolled her eyes.

“Mabel you should avoid spouting thrash out” Biance scoffed.

“I know it’s crazy to believe” Mabel chuckled.

“Just stop with your nonsense” Lily glared at her.

None liking the fact Maude personal slave is with them at that moment.

Mabel looked at them a smile playing on her lips.

“You look like a zombie” Evelyn scoffed.

“Sister you are a witch” Mabel spit out.

“The fxck!!”

The girls said in unison making Mabel chuckled.

“Infact you are my sister” she smirked.

“What the fxck are you talking about” Evelyn snapped.

“You are a witch”

Mabel said emphasizing on the four words.

The four words driving Evelyn mad.
