~ A Grain Of Truth~

"We hardly sleep overnight all this while Maya, the fear of death has over shadowed my mind, I heard one of the guard saying, there is a party tonight and the prisoners will be reveal to the people",

Are they going to kill us tonight Amelia?, I don't think so Maya.

They might kill you both but I'll save myself, said by one of the last Werewolf who attacked them on their way back to Dunwitch

"Why did you say that?, "Maya asked curiously"

"Never mind!" Never mind am just lost in thoughts.

"I could hear deep Voices echoing from distance coming towards us, The smell of their animal skin clothes became thick and was all over the air we breathe in, this is of three Werewolves and what they are thinking in their mind was vividly echoing in our ears, this is the first time of putting to use our divine powers".

They're fast approaching with the thoughts of covering our faces till we get to the get them out of Dunwitch as ordered by our employer..

"We stood steadily waiting fearfully impatient for their arrival, the fear of what they could do to us if taken away, these are people who has been treating us badly since we got here"...

Not very long they arrived, heavily armed men breathing like an elephant running in the wilderness, they were trying as much as possible not to make any sound",

"Am so scared Maya! Said Amelia" am scared too Amelia, lets be calm and relax our mind, the spirit of our dead mother and the forces that has been guiding and protecting us ever since we were kids are still with us...

"Our faces were covered in dirty rags smelling like a dead pigs", one of the guards opened the door, and the other two waited outside speaking silently like a lost ghost", they were saying we have to sneak them out of here and take them to the secret house as planned before the real Royal guards gets here as commanded by lord Edward.

They grabbed us forcefully!, we walked silently to the Main entrance of an underground escape route built under the palace during war, when we got out of the prison premises they ordered us to move fast, they put us all in an empty carriage and two of them mount on a horse...

"They started the carriage with full speed moving towards Dunwitch border, the Werewolves guiding the border are all dead, killed by them", we were about to get out of Dunwitch when prince Richard and groups of werewolves caught up with us",

"They all shape shifted into full grown werewolves, They attacked them from behind cutting them from their throat downward, they ended up killing three of them"...

"One of the Captives whom was captured with Amelia and Maya wanted to tell the prince about their plans, he was about telling him that Edward has visited them few days before that day to lay down the escape plans to Salem, in order to receive rewards from the Alpha King who is the father of the Conjoined Luna".

Unfortunately! When he was about to speak on it Edward killed him instantly and told the prince he was part of them and wished to escape too. The prince trusted Edward so much that he couldn't doubt his innocence, morever they've come a long way ever since they were kids...

Richard held on Amelia and Maya by their hands to check whether they're hurt anywhere, he was so concerned that he had to untied them, removed the cover on their faces, and give them a bottle of water to drink...

"You might be thirsty he said", Yes! Yes!!, we are "Amelia answered him quickly"..

So sorry for all these, those that kidnapped you aren't part of us, "no son or daughter of Dunwitch will ever hurt you",

Richard for the first time spoke to Amelia and Maya peacefully and calmly, they met comfort in his words this period...

"The reddish blushing sign covered the cheek on their faces as he continued to show more concern about their current status, I nearly pushed our whole body to hug him before one of the loyal guards to prince Richard came to inform him about those that attacked us.

"He showed him the marks on the werewolves who kidnapped us"...

"Guard Where are they from? These marks on their body shows they are werewolf Mercinaries hired by someone who knows every secrets entrances and exits of the palace, to my knowledge they escaped through the underground Tunnel that was built during the wars between Dunwitch and Neptoleon. This Tunnel is only known to the Alpha King, the people living in the palace and the Royal guards...

"My question is how on earth did they get to know about the tunnel? What are you insinuating? Sire! I think we have a rat among us and we need to be vigilant at all time"...

"Sire ! One of the guards guiding the prisoners told me lord Edward came to the palace to visit one of the prisoners, but what they were discussing was unknown to them",

"Are you trying to say Edward is behind all these kidnapping act?"

No sire! I just want you to be aware and be very careful these days.

''''Alright!

Thank you!, take the prisoner back to the palace and not to the prison again, tell the rest of the guards to dispose the dead bodies, I don't want them to cause alarm to the rest of the people.

"We were taken to the palace, Richard's humanity fell upon us this time Maya, am also surprised as you are Amelia",

They're treating us like we've been living with them for long, I guessed prince Richard is not a bad person after all, I never had it in mind that he could grant us this kind of hospitality, with all these he's doing I think my heart wasn't wrong afterall, Amelia what affection are you saying, don't be disturbed Maya, i think I hurt my head in the attack", Maya smiled while they eat the food placed on a long Royal Table, the Dinner room of the Alpha King of Dunwitch

"Prince Richard came in unexpectedly, walking like a perfect gentleman, a man of honor and peace, the second man after our father that has ever showed us affection and care without looking at our disabilities"...
