Marked: Part 2; The Wronged

Chapter 67

"I still don't understand why they gave us a kingdom." Yxeyhzfkx said, scratching his head.

"I already told you why Hix." Amilia said, walking beside him. "A new kingdom joined, which made the count even, so they needed another kingdom to make the number odd so that there would always be a decision."

"Eh," He said, "I don't believe it."

Amilia laughed, "You're here aren't you?"

"Well, yes, I suppose I am." Amilia's phone buzzed and she opened it to look at it.

"I got to go." Amilia said.

"Will you be back for dinner?"

"I shou- yeah, why wouldn't I?"

"Well, you don't live here, honey. You live up with Oglm."

"Oh, yeah, right. Well I'll give him a call and straighten things out."

"Alrighty, bye, sweetheart." Yxeyhzfkx kissed her on her head before she left. Amilia went to the outskirts of the Market and to the wall. She put her hand on the entrance and the wall fell.

"Welcome back!" Unora said on top of the stairs. Unora walked down the stairs to meet her. "I see you got my text."

"When did you get a phone?"

"Oh I've had one."

"Alright." Amilia said. "Don't go crazy." Amilia paused. "I'm back here, but I don't want to be overworked, plus I want to have a life outside this arraignment, so you are going to work around my schedule."

"So many demands, I did recall you made a deal with me."

"Yes, I did. But you only said I had to work for you, you never said for how long. I could work for you today and then by tomorrow I could become a vampire. So I think it's in your best interest to keep me happy."

"Hm, I suppose so, but you remember that I still have Sir Akxfo in my grasp. And this time I'm not letting him go as easily." Unora said.

"Ugh." Amilia groaned. "Where's Jero?"

"She's asleep."

"Can you keep her enchanted? She used to be a person, you know. I mean she was a perfect fit for you after all, you did take over her body to stay young."

"More than that my dear, but alright. I will keep your aunt enchanted. I'll even let her go by her own name and voice." Unora snapped her fingers.

"Can I know why you want me." Amilia said, looking at her.

"No." Unora said. "I do not need to worry you."

"What's your vendetta? You never said why you wanted revenge."

"You will figure that out soon enough." Unora said. "When you become old and bitter, when everything is taken from you. Then you will understand."

"So what are we doing today?"

"Nothing." Unora said. "I just wanted to see you, and-" She paused. "Did you travel to the past? I seem to remember someone called Jaqueline looking exactly like you."

"I don't have the know how to travel to the past." Unora turned around and walked up to Amilia.

"Are you sure? She looked exactly like you, just without the streak."

"You must be seeing things."

"Alright, alright, go on, get out of here." Amilia left Unora's little grove and went up to the surface. She went into Oglm's house and relaxed for quite a while. When Oglm finally got home he looked at Amilia who was just watching TV. Oglm smiled and then looked at her.
