"What... What is this?"
I just came back to my room and before I came back there was someone's blood. I followed the blood drops to check who is bleeding. I come to my bed's other side and I saw a man who I don't even recognize is dead, lying in the floor.
On the other side of it was a dagger with the same man's blood. This means that the person who killed him did not forget the dagger, but had some important reason for his action, because no one can be so careless after doing something so bad. He knew that he could be caught with this thing. I can't understand how can someone comes to my room and do something like this?
"What is going on? Who can do this?" I need to call someone but before I can even move queen comes to my room with her soldiers. My father was also seen among her soldiers. It must be a conspiracy, a big conspiracy against me. it is the queen, she have made this plan against me. I knew it. but why..why I can't move? what is happening, I'm feeling so weak myself.

"LOOK.. Do you still need proof, though? DO YOU BELIEVE.. OR YOU STILL NEED MORE PROOFS?"
"Blezi..what did you done?......why"

Father spoke a few words in a low voice and then looked at me silently. sorrow had reached their head, and tears started coming out of their eyes, But it doesn't effecting queen, she was coming straight to me.

"I know it's not your first time. You have done it before, YOU first killed the king whom you pretended to LOVE. And now it won't be the first time for YOU to kill someone, but your truth has come out in front of EVERYONE. I will now punish you for all your sins. HE" she pointed to the dead body "who helped you kill the king, now you kill him to save yourself! But what do you think you will be saved? NO. Today your secret is revealed. And I WILL NOT let you escape, you will DIE by my own hands."

She picked up the same dagger that was lying on the bed and stabbed me in the chest

Why...Why can't I move, I have to do something but why can't I do anything? I scream in pain and then my eyes open. Rose was holding my arms and shaking me, trying to wake me up. 'so it was a dream' But I was very scared, so I hugged Rose as soon as I saw her.

After a while

"So you also can't sleep? I should apologize for my behavior... It's my fault, I shouldn't have woken you up screaming in the middle of the night"
We were both sitting in front of the fire and Rose looked very tired.

 It's my fault, I shouldn't have woken you up screaming in the middle of the night"We were both sitting in front of the fire and Rose looked very tired

She said to me, "No, it's not your fault I was already awake. You should go back to sleep." I sighed "No I don't want to. Those scary dreams can't let me sleep peacefully. Everytime I close my eyes I see my terrifying past, blood, crying, running.......
This sleep can't heal me till I am fully recovered by my soul." She looked at my eyes "You look so depressed... Your eyes can tell." I looked away There is no point in remembering these things at this time, I am just busy trying to find a solution to the problem I am going through. In the end, I can't stay here forever in their house. I have to get the message out there that I'm alive. Or else they will consider dead to me.Then my eyes fell on the fire, I thought that since both of us are not sleeping, fully awake. why not ask Rose about her two brothers.  (dragons)"You've been living with them since childhood"  "With whom?"  "With those two dragons, your brothers." "Yeah." So... you've seen them come in their true form, also throwing fire haven't you?" She replied with a normal tune. "They are dragons, They can do anything. And these things very easy for them to do. Do you know they have to transform into their true form at least once everyday." I was surprised because yesterday both of them were in human form for all day. "Potentially... I could not see them in their true form yesterday." "Why.... Do you want to see them like this? If you wish..... Don't worry I'll ask my brother to sho you his true form. WELL he likes to be secretive most of the time. I don't know why but ..... He didn't even tell the girl who come before you 'Sally'... about himself. But the why he is treating you.....I don't think he will refrain from telling you anything."

Rose are so opportunist. She doesn't leave any moment to annoy me. Even my words telling something else but she throwing her thoughts in sound mere-moment. I can't tell by her sudden change behavior what is on her mind. "I don't know about this much. I was thinking to know you all. What is your past, what do you all do for living and what are the likes and dislikes of those dragons so that I can take care of it..... Look like every animal has a shortcoming and a characteristic and so on.." "okay okay"
She started her speech in the middle "I got it. You want to know about us. Us it doesn't look like it would be problem to tell you anything about us. I can tell you us AS much as I know.
First me. My mother died giving birth to me. You should consider yourself lucky because you got time to spend with your mother. "
Now I understand what she is talking about.  After all, I have told her about myself, who I am, and who my mother was. We both can understand each other's pain, we both have lost our mother. I put my hands on her hands. "Believe me, I haven't forgotten my mother, I still remember every moment I spent with her. I know how you feel." Her eyes were down.

"I know......I have lived with these dragons since my inception. And I never felt awkward being with them. Even they are not human but they are so talented. I always feel like we have blood connection or something actually... it can't be. And accidentally we both do not have mother."
