CHAPTER 22

"Madam you have to stay at bed"

Jian said softly as she tried to hold Oliva's arm, she was about to fall, Oliva slid her hand and hardly walked to the door.

"She supposed to be fine, it's been three weeks by now"

Jian thought, but Oliva was getting pale and light, she was weak and tired, even though no massage form Kiderak, two weeks ago he went to the Northern Great Mountains on a secret mission.

"Let me go"

Oliva hardly uttered before losing consciousness, It was her six time per day, Jian sent for the presence of Prince Kiderak. Holla checked her with that hopeless gazed he stated:

"This is an anathema, it's over my knowledge"

Jian

was shocked, she did not imagine that curses were real, Oliva's fingers turned dark as the evening came.

"My daughter, where is she?"

Yatir yelled when she had arrived at the palace, the horrified sight and her sharp loud voice made most of the maids gathering a round her, Mrs. Graint in her brown noble dress stopped Yatir by the door.

"Oliva will die sooner or later, why did you brother come?"

Mrs. Graint peeved, she thought they gave Oliva much attention than she deserved.

Yatir looked over her shoulders and gave Mrs. Graint the red wild eye, a maid took her to Oliva's room.

"Oliva!"

She fell broken near the bed, she was speechless for some seconds, Viola who just entered with their bags, ran towards Oliva but Yatir stopped her.

"Stay back, Jian call for the royal healer, and bring me a puring water from the Light Kingdom.

" We need to do decontamination"

Yatir wiped her tears and began to recite healing spells, Viola went with servants to bring her mother's request.

The news of Oliva's illness had been widespread, everybody in the kingdom knew it.

"When does she begin to feel blue?"

Yatir asked as she watched the room carefully, Jian told her about the attack a month ago. Yatir jaw dropped, Oliva was not the kind of people who hid any problems she might faced.

"The room is cursed, we can't get her out of it, and if she stay here she wouldn't be better"

Yatir mouthed bitterly, Jian did not believe her ears. This was her first time hearing such a thing.

"But how could that be?"

"Take a look at the flowers over there, usually the Lavtyos have a white shine color, those over there are dark gray like the marks on her skin"

Yatir tune was full of sadness, as a high healer she had come across Oliva's case before, but the situation here was different, the whole room was cursed full of black magic.

"Don't worry, as I said the curse won't spread quickly, it's limited to the room, but you can't go out until the pre_purification ceremony is complete"

Yatir added, Jian had noticed her huge magical power, Jian could know that Yatir was a professional healer, she felt better by her presence, she wished if Kiderak was here.

"That poor girl she got what she deserved, she tried to play with fire and now let her enjoy burning "

Kathleen said raising a wine glass, she giggled and smiled at her reflection on the mirror.

"The idea of cursing the whole room while they were not around was a perfect one"

She poured another glass for her and sat on the chair watching the moonlight.

"Only three nights left and Kiderak would be mine"

She shocked her head in pleasure, then added:

"No one will assist you OLIVA"

She mocked Oliva's name in a

anomalous tune.

Her mother joined the celebration, she gazed at Kathleen who was over the moon.

" I hope you did not involved in this matter, for the spatial knights are consummating Oliva's illness "

Her mother stated as she tried to calm down, Kathleen did not pay attention to her mother's speech, she was dreaming about her new life with Kiderak.

Yatir did not sleep for two days, the Knights surrounded the palace with a protection barrier, Oliva was left a pale skin in weak bones, her mother's heart was bleeding every time she glanced at her appearance.

"If I still have my magical stick, you won't suffer this much"

Yatir tears were about to fall just to hear Oliva's whispering:

"K_Kiderak I… I"

She hissed his name as if her last wish to see him by her side, Yatir did not bear all of this, she went to the balcony and wiped her tears.

"You have to pull yourself together, you can handle this"

Yatir told herself as she backed, Jian brought the pouring water. They started the final healing ceremony.

"Let me in, it's a breaking news"

The knight came in after he had the permission from Prince Kiderak. He was looking nasty and exhausted .

"What do you have?

Hurry up I've not time to be waste"

Kiderak stated as he was checking some papers, the Knight kneeled and spoke in a broken voice:

"Her Majesty was cursed and there's no hoped for her recovery"

His words fell into Kiderak as if a cold water poured on his entire body, he tore the papers between his hands.

"When did...?

How... I_ I Left her with a good health, what the hell is happening?"

Kiderak thundered, his heart was in chaos, his voice echoed till the whole room ruined.

"They ask for your attendance immediately, your highness"

The Knight stated while he was trembling,

Kiderak moved without a word, all he was thinking about was her.

"Get cursed and in my palace, I bet there's hidden wicked hands behind this deathfull play" Kiderak finally said as they were closer to the palace.

He took all of his demons with him, he arrived at the same time with his cousin Raphtan who was in shock to see Kiderak at the palace gate, he had to be by Oliva's side.

No one of them spoke to the other, they headed to Oliva's room, Kiderak ignored Kathleen who came to welcome him, she was delightful but he did not see any one in front of him.

Atear came from his eye as he glanceed at Oliva, he stepped on the room, Out of sudden Oliva began to shout till she coughed blood.

"Get out"

Yatir yelled at Kiderak who had ignored the Knights awareness to not cut off the ceremony.

"Are you deaf? Look you made her worser"

Yatir closed her eyes as she tried not to shout at him, for he was not on his mine, Kiderak still standing in a doze, Raphtan dragged him out.

"What the hell is happening in my palace?"

Kiderak broke the wall with his fists, Jian approached, holding some holy flowers.

"Greetings your majesty, the whole room was cursed, you have to stay aside"

She hurried carrying the flowers as Yatir had told her, Kiderak was pissed off.

"How should I stay on the side?"

He whispered, Raphtan shakedown him and said:

"Calm down"

"How dare he ignore me?

just for that middle class bitch"

Kathleen squalled while heading to her room, she shut the door till it almost crashed.

"Fuck, she must die today"

She yelled and put some dark skulls and stones on her table, she drew a large circle on the floor, she used her own blood.

Her eyes were shining in light purple, a dim smoke cloud appeared in the middle of the circle, Kathleen's pupils almost turned white with her mouth wild opened, she lowered her head like zombies.

She released a loud lusty cry until she broke the windows and all the glassy material in the room, the smoke cloud began to shape itself.

"Your orders"

A very gigantic monster was standing before her, she caught her breath and smiled in victory.

"I did it"

She whispered and eyed that fearful creature, it had two heads covered with feathers.

Kathleen had been prepared since her far young age to be Kiderak's wife and the queen, her pinky flowering dreams vanished, what left for her was a dusty broken plate.

"Asior the great devil from hell, gain me your power to destroy my enemies"

Kathleen stated while her mother was knocking on the door as loud as she could.

Every person in the palace recognized the strong light that came from her room, she did not give a damn if they caught her.

"You will have what you want it, but with one condition"

Asior hissed while showing off that dark black magical aura, Kathleen was ready to lose everything just to see Oliva as a dead body.

When Kiderak and Raphtan arrived at Kathleen's door they found it too late to fix anything, Kathleen was still sitting in front of the circle, she was so quiet.

"Don't approach her, you will lose your soul"

Kiderak stated as he took a forward step, Raphtan could not see that Kathleen now became half a demon, she gave up on her body which began to fade, her mother was on her knees, she watched her daughter turning into dust.

" Take her out, I will handle this"

Kiderak ordered Raphtan who dragged Mrs. Graint out of the room, Kathleen was floating over the room she was watching the dramatical play in front of her.

"I begged for your attention, I was made for you but you chose her"

Kathleen said as she walked towards Kiderak who did not show any moves not emotions.

"You're the one who planned for this dirty game"

Kiderak's aura increased, Kathleen rolled her eyes and laughed.

"Sorry your majesty, it's to late, she will die no way out and if she didn't I will kill her, now after I gained Asior great power no one could stay on my way"

Kathleen said in proudness, Kiderak clapped and gave her that pathetic look, he said:

"And who is Asior?"

Kathleen felt with strong power surrounded her she stepped back and stopped saying:

"He is the powerful demon from the hell"

In ablink Kiderak approached her and she could hear him breathing.

"And I'm the devil's great master, bow!"

He whispered, Kathleen found herself bowing without any control of her own body.
