Bianca’s pov:
I walked out of the room to find Queen mother pacing around the hallway with the different sorceresses and healers entering and walking out of Ryan’s room.
I stared at them all with confusion and surprise. What is going on here?
Why is everywhere in chaos and tattered?
With curiosity, I walk up to the Queen mother and noticed that she is crying furiously with Liam by his side
“What is going on here?” I asked Liam since the Queen mother spared me no glance.
“I don’t know what is going on with Ryan,” he mumbled and I staggered back with my eyes wildly open and that’s when Juliet’s words hit me.
“If I can’t have Ryan then none of us will have him,” my eyes watered on recalling her words.
“What are you talking about and how do you know?” I said in one go with fear evident in my voice.
I watched Liam run his hands “From the prophecy, it was said that he is suffering from an unknown illness !!” He gritted his teeth.
“From an unknown illness!” I repeat with shock.
“So what are they saying? Can I go and see him?” I said in one go.
“No one is allowed in there and have you gotten the news?” He stares at me.
“What…… what are you talking about?” I stammered.
“Your friend Juliet is dead,” I staggered at his words.
So Juliet is dead, I wanted to laugh but remembering the condition that Ryan is got my tongue-tied.
What a job well done, Licien!
———————————————————–
It has been some days now with Ryan still on his bed. He has been unconscious which scares every single soul.
Different powerful witches and wizards have come but they still couldn’t heal him.
The whole palace has been quiet like a graveyard, too quiet with no one talking to each other.
It was a huge tragedy that befalls the palace. My mind was in chaos as anger flooded in me. I don’t want Ryan to die.
If anything could happen to him then the title won’t reach me anymore. The queen mother hasn’t spoken to any single soul.
Liam looked down, I didn’t blame him, I know the relationship between him and Ryan.
“Can’t we visit Cora and know if we could find a solution to this problem?” Liam said to the queen mother who has slimmed down under the space of days.
“You think that she will have an idea,” I asked him since Queen Rebecca wasn’t saying anything.
He nodded and motioned for us to go, I stood and spared Queen Rebecca one more glance before walking away.
Reaching the cave, it was scary. I gulped with difficulty. This is actually the first time that I am visiting this witch.
We stride inside with Liam by my side, reaching a black door more like a stone. Liam knocked for some time before the door opened, scaring me.
He motioned for me to enter before he strode inside.
Entering inside, I saw an old woman with white hair all over her body. I gulped nervously before taking a seat.
“I was expecting you people to come,” she said while still staring at us.
“How is Queen Rebecca?”
“She is not good,” Liam answered.
“You already know the reasons why we are here,” I watched Liam ask her.
She smiled and nodded her head.
“The solution that you seek, you will find,”
“Ryan won’t die but only one person can heal him, the person that he loves so much and wishes for her to always be by his side…….. Look for her before four days or say goodbye to Ryan,”
My throat burned furiously at her words, who Ryan loves so much? My mind pondered on that prophecy. I could feel a tinge of jealousy clouding my sense of reasoning concerning the prophecy.
“And where can we find her?” Liam asked her.
“I have no idea,” she replied with a shrug.
She has no idea and she requested that!
After some hours of sitting, Liam thanked her and motioned for us to leave. There was silence between us as we made our way back to the pack.
Reaching the palace, I disclosed to Queen Rebecca what the prophecy said but the issue was who the girl was and that’s when realization dawned on me.
Is she talking about Ashley? No way!
But Juliet said that she is holding her captive, so where do we find her?
I am sure that by now she will already be dead, I sighed and plopped on my bed with my hands under my head. I stared at the ceilings as I pondered on the prophecy.
Who he loves and wishes to be by his side? I sighed and looked away.
Not quite long, the door to my room was pulled open as Queen Rebecca walked in.
“I think I know the girl that the witch mother is talking about but the issue is where do we find her?” She said when taking a seat beside me.
“Juliet claimed that she had her trapped, so finding her will be a lot of difficulties,” I mumbled.
“And besides I don’t even want her here,” I said.
“Why?”
“You remembered how cozy and warm, they both looked back then,”
“We are talking about saving my son and you are here talking about their love and whatever!!”
“Do you even know what you are talking about, we are giving four days, four freaking days?” Queen Rebecca exclaimed.
“Yeah! I also know what I am talking about,” I clapped back.
“You know nothing! You are just insecure that she will take Ryan away…….. This is not time for this, we all need to find her and save my son,” she blurred.
“So tell me where do you find her?” I asked her.
I watched her open her out and close it without any word coming out.
“You see….. We just need to look for another witch mother, I don’t think Cora knows what she is saying,” I shrugged with a sigh.
