"Mmnn.." Angelica rubbed her eyes slowly and looked around. She was in a daze.
'Where am I?' She thought but soon she recognized the place and her eyes moved towards the work bench.
'Right I was working late last night...' she shook her head to get her tiredness away.
Her eyes widened and she as saw what happens to the two vials. She quickly got off bed and sprinted over to look at the two.
"Oh my.." she gasped out loud.
She pick up the vial and took out something from the side. She looked through the green eyes piece at the vial and yelled in surprise!
"OH MY LORD!! I FOUND IT!!" She yelled.
She looked at the other one and squealed. All she needed was a little patience and voila! The things she was looking for appeared into front.
Her yelling and squeals woke up the poor wolves and she didn't even notice. Harry felt aggrieved and Helix felt annoyed. But could they say anything?
Nah~ its because now they were fully awake!
Angelica carefully put down the vials and study them using the eye piece. This eye piece especially came from her grandmother. It could detect poisons through its special glass and the same goes for the cure.
But why are there two? Her eye twitched looking at the the two colours. Yellow and purple vials. Two cures and one poison. It was strange but nothing new when coming finding new way to for a cure.
They were beautiful colours and this time she was sure that these two were the cure she need to stop the bleeding. She looked over the vial many times. She couldn't believe she found it so quickly but a strange feeling was tugging at her.
Hesitation? But why?
She shook off her feelings and picked up the purple one and drank right down. She'll save the yellow one for later in case this one didn't work.
She felt that something in her body throbbed. She clenched her chest with her hand and fell to her knees. Her body felt on fire and it continued to grow higher and higher the more time passed. Her shoulder burned as if someone was pushing an hot iron rob into it. She broke into cold sweat.
"AHHH!!" She screamed. Her voice broke out from the pain.
Helix and Harry ran over to Angelica who was sweating. But the second they touched her they were pushed back by her magic. They were shocked. It never happened before!
Angelica had no time to pay attention, her body hurt. Even though she went through many cruel pains from wounds or poison. This one was definitely the worst. Tears pooled her eyes mixing with her sweat that dripped down the side of her face and down her chin.
She felt something dripping down her arm. She looked over the find red and black blood gushing out from her shoulder.
'It's working.'
She stay in this agonizing state for half an hour. The pain finally subsided but her over all body felt weak. She couldn't even feel her limbs! Most of all she had a pool of blood around her. It's stained her white dress red.
She just laid on the ground catching her breath. Her eyes were closed. She didn't even care anymore.
"Master!! Master!!" Harry's nose poked Angelica's face but all she could do was give a weak smile with her heavy eyes.
She didn't. No she couldn't speak. She just felt tired.
"Just... just leaving me in the pool.. I'll come out later..." she hoarsely said.
But wolves still looked worry but still follow her wishes and brought her to a room found in the back of the spacious work spot.
It was an hidden cave pool that she first found before making this place her home and research area. Both wolves placed her right by the pool. She told them to both leave.
Her hand reached out to touch the water gently. She played with it gently and made circles in the water. She stopped after awhile and finally got up wobbling a bit. She stripped herself before stepping into the warm water.
"Ah~! This is the life!" She felt that her body started it relax.
- An Hour Later -
Angelica came out refreshed but her face was still pale. Looking at the mirror she sighed.
"I look like a dead person walking around with the living." She touched her face and pulled her cheek.
Harry who was watching Angelica finally called out to her, "Master! Her Majesty summon me and brother."
"Oh? What does she want?" She raised her brow at him.
"To guide some guest to the palace. She said that we needed to first come to the palace. She also sent Felicia to help you get dress."
Angelica nodded before speaking, "Alright, go first. I'll meet you guys soon. If any problem occurs then use the water mirror to call me."
"Yes, Master!" Harry said, before he and Helix left the working area back upstairs. Not after long she heard something.
Thump! Thump! Thump! The sound of heels coming thumping in her direction.
"Angelica Silver!!" A feminine voice screamed making Angelica cover her ears from the high tone.
"I really wonder what would happen if her Majesty didn't inform me!!!" The woman had red hair fall down her shoulders and back.
Her green eyes were looking at Angelica sternly as if ready to kill her with her eyes.
"Felicia darling!! Miss me!" Angelica gave her a golden smile and Felicia grinned along with her.
"You kidding me?! I was ready to hunt you down if you didn't come back for today's meeting!! Heck!" She walked her way and gave Angelica a hug.
"Anyway..." she grabbed Angelica by the shoulder gave her an sly smile, "I must make you dress to kill! So leave it to me!!"
Felicia snapped her fingers and a bunch of dress showed up. Angelica gulped.
She will die if she wore that many dress!
"W-wait!"
"Quite!! Today we'll show that bi*ch Bethany who deserves the crown!! Now then.. be good will you?" The last part was a threat!!
Angelica only resigned to fate and let Felicia do the work.
