Bloody gamble

~6~

When we finally got our castle, I was a little worried.
I went to check on Serena, she was alright. We did a little conversation. She was not as bed as I thought.
I couldn't understand why did Artemis and others didn't lke her. Maybe the problem was at them.
She told me that she had a crush on Eljah and that was the moment I was shocked. Weren't we supposed to marry the people that our familles chose ? This was absolutely not what I expected. Can you
think, you are thinking that you'll marry someone and your sister tells you she has a crush on him? I needed to stop her but how? I didn't want her to be sad.
-Serena look, you know that he's the prince that our parents chose for me. I don't want to break your
heart but as you know this is impossible.
Her face turned down.
-Ok. I understand but this is heart. I can't simply just forget anything.
She turned her back to me. I felt bad for her. I just stood up and left. She didn't know anything, Ididn't have any rights to break her. I was passing by Artemis's room then I stopped. I slowly knocked on her
door and waited. After she told " come in", the guards opened the door. I stepped in and saw her in front of her window, she was looking at the sunset. I walked to her and stopped when i reached her.

-Serena, I have a question for you. Are you sure no one'll die for this travel?

-Yes I'm sure. Do not worry.
-But you could do it before I came here. Why didn't you do it then?
-Umm actually you were not so nice with all of us and Serena only loved you because you were similar.
-What do you mean?
-what i mean is,vou were the "evilsisters" in this dimension. After her death, you felt so bad and you didn't even wanted to go out of your room. After that day, you wasn't the old you. You even tried to
suicide and after a few tries, you managed to kill yourself.
Artemis said with her head down.
Then I understood.

- Wait, does it mean l'll die?
-Sorry, I don't know, if we can save Serena, maybe there's a chance that-

I didn't want to hear anythingl What did I even expected? Wil they give me money for free? l've been so stupid.
This was not a gamble i played on people's life, I played it on my life!
I was running to my room. I needed to go back to my life, the guards opened the door for me and I went
in. As I was closing the door, I feit a hand on my face, it was medicine. I held my breath and tried not to
breath. After 1 minute I pretended to faint and the hand let go of me. I let myself fall on the ground to
make it more realistic, What the fuck was going on?l First Artemis then this. The owner of the hand picked me up and walked. I could hear him going to the window. Don't ask me why. There's a piece of wood that squeals if you step on it. My kidnapper did something but I couldn't feel what was it. I was planning to him or her, but i stopped when i heard a voice. A woman's voice. But it was so familiar. Wait, this voice belonged to Serena!

-Did she do something?

-No, she was so quiet. I just fainted her. What are you planning to do with her?

And this sound belonged to Ekaterina Egorovna, I already thought this. I opened my eyes to see myself in her arms. She looked confused but she was still holding me. I smirked and patted her head. She dropped me and I looked at Serena.

-So, what were you going to do with me huh? kill me?
She was shocked. I got coser to her and got confused because Ekaterina didn't move, instead she smirked and crossed her arms on her chest. Serena said:
-Egorovna, what is this?

-I thought we were sisters.

She smiled and turned her face to me.

-Drop the act bitch, it's not like I don't know anything, You came from another dimension.
I acted like fake surprised and said:

-Wow, if you know this much, you should've known that i never lose.
I hit her neck and she fainted. Ekaterina was quiet. I turned to her:
-Want to fight?
I got the fighting position. She did as the same but kept quiet. I started first, I threw a punch on her liver
and she dodged it. I was ready for an attack but it didn't come. So I threw another punch too. She
dodged and I was starting to get angry.
-Fight me Egorovna! I know what you're up to.
Then she simply grabbed my right shoulder which was shot and pulled me closer. She was a little taller than me so, I couldn't look at her face, I didn't want to look at someone from down. She really knew
what to do, my shoulder hurted.It was not stil complately healed. When there was a few centimetres between our faces, she talked:
-I don't want to fight.
Her breath was touching my lips which made me feel a little exted, What the fuck was going on with me?! She's my enemy.

-Let go.
I whispered. She smiled and did what i said. Then she just went. I wanted to kill her and she left. Then i understood Serena was still on the ground. I took my knive to kill her then i remembered that if I do it,
I'll die. I didn't want to die. I picked her up and took her to her room. Some maids asked if she was ok,
then I answered that she's just asleep. After 30 minutes, I was in my bed, trying to sleep. I turned to left
but it didn't work. I was not sleepy. I stood up and stepped to the window. The sky was so beautiful. No
clouds, shiny stars. I liked the feeling of wind. I closed my eyes and felt it on my face. "So beautiful
right?" I quickly turned around and saw Artemis behind me.
-How did you come in?
-you didn't hear, it's not my fault.
-Sorry. I was just angry.
-Never mind.
She smiled and hugged me. I knew what they were up to so, i acted sad.

-I came to say you something, After 3 days, there will be a ballroom dance. Actually, In original part of
time, the king will announce it after 3 days. But I wanted to say it earlier, You should be ready. Travis can
be everywhere. We don't know where did he kill Serena. We saw her body after the ballroom dance.
Elijah and Casper will come too.
She smiled.
-Don't worry. I won't let you die. I promise if you die, l'il save you no matter what.
