The gruesome death

His eyes widened at the thought that crossed his mind. If only.....

Could it be that she is not a witch? No how could it be, one is my twin while the other is the daughter of the emperor of witches. But still, there is a nagging feeling in his heart that something is wrong here. Something he was looking at but still can't see.

He took a big sigh and decided to check both of them. This is not the right time to think about all this. Standing up from his seat he walked to his room where Cynthia slept. 

Her brows were furrowed, and her forehead had lines, her lips quivering. He immediately sat there and put her head on his lap. Patting and soothing her. Saying sweet words to her to make her feel better.

He ran his hand in her hair and patted her head to assure her she was safe. Soon she started relaxing in his arms. He waved his hand to bring a bowl of water and a clean cloth in his hands.
