Author's POV

Ashley : I want the Throne.

She declares calmly and they all gasp loudly at her words. Her father stands up suddenly, slamming his hand on the table and glares at her but before he could utter a single word, he head was slashed in two with a snap of Ashley's fingers.

Everyone stood up in shock and horror looking at the bloody mess before looking up at her sitting calmly and staring at the rest of them with a dangerous glint in her eyes that was barely concealed after this.

Ashley : mhm? Anyone objecting?

She says calmly, looking down at her nails. She chuckles suddenly making shivers run down their spines. She stands up slowly, approaching the dead body of her father and claps her hands twice and a few guards come inside, cleaning up the mess and taking away the dead body like the most normal thing ever and no one dares to move an inch.

Ashley : I can read your thoughts. I wouldn't give you another chance to change them.

She looks up at Asher who was glaring daggers at her and just smiles, amused. Glancing up at the others who were either glaring at her or horrified.

Ashley : come on, I gave you everything, didn't I?

Asher : Ashi.. you're out of your fucking mind!!

He slams his hand on the table and she just smiles at him. A cold sick smile making everyone nauseous just at the sight as she tilts her head putting her index finger on her lips as she mutters a 'shush'.

Ashley : I told you not to raise your voice at me-

Asher : what the fuck, Ashley!?

He cuts her off making her smile disappear, replaced by a dead glare instead as she snaps her fingers twice and two more people drop on his either side making him gasp in horror as he covers his mouth with his hands stepping back in utter horror and shock.

Ashley : Quiet, I said.

Asher : AURORA!! MOTHER!!!

His loud screams echo through the room and probably half of the castle. They all look at her in disbelief and all they saw in that moment was a woman, high on power and bloodlust. She wasn't their sister or cousin anymore. It was utterly terrifying and bone-chilling.

Jin : Ashley!

Jin dared to speak up, wanting to make her snap out of whatever trance she was in but as she calmly glanced back at him, taking his breath away, one thing was crystal clear. She wasn't in any kind of trance or bewitched. This. Was. Ashley. Gone completely insane beyond repair.

Ashley : whoever opposes the idea of me being their queen.. stand on one side so I can kill you all easily already.

She says it like she's discussing the weather completely ignoring her wailing brother and dead mother and sister in law on the side as she picks up a glass of water, taking a sip nonchalantly.

Out of the corner of her eye she notices Asher getting up, his eyes red with pure rage and hatred as she lifts his hands to attack her but she stands there calmly, his powers never reaching her.

Ashley : huh? Did you forget our promise from when we were younger? The unbreakable promise.

She snickers mockingly glancing at him and he pales remembering it. Back when they were younger, she made him promise that no matter what, he'd never hurt her even accidentally.

But he must promise it for it to be sealed for eternity and actually work when required. He didn't even know about their powers back then and thought it was just a game but.. she's been planning it all along..?

Asher : y-you..

Ashley : Do you not get what it is, brother? This.. is my game. You either kneel or die. There's no in-between or other choice.

She says coldly glancing at each of them. Taehyung was sobbing to Jimin who himself looked scared, held by Suga who glared at her. Before any of them could utter another word, Namjoon stepped ahead, holding Asher's arm, pulling him back.

Namjoon : Stop it, Ashley. Please. You've already killed enough people.. we're not your enemies.

He tries calmly but Asher pulls his arm back roughly, glaring daggers at her, his voice loud and filled with immense pain and hatred all in one.

Asher : You're just a monster, you hear me? You're fucking pathetic. I hate that you're my sister. You're so fucking disgusting! How do you live with yourself, you witch!?!

He roars, marching towards her while she stays calm and before any of them could reach out to stop him or meddle in between, there's another light snap of her fingers followed by a thud.

The room goes silent and still, the silence by a loud sob from Jungkook and silent cries of Jimin and Taehyung as they all are huddled together, Suga hiding them behind himself.

Hobi : Enough.. Ashley.. Just.. Just stop.

His voice trembles as he pulls Namjoon back instinctively, his eyes wide with horror. The clouds outside rumble loudly making the windows shake.

The sky rains heavily, the whole magical world embraced by her ominous darkness, emphasizing the gruesome act. The petrifying screams and sight.

Ashley : This is the last time I'm going to ask this..

She says and claps her hands twice and another batch of guards appear, clearing up the bodies and blood. She stares at the bodies of her family being disposed like trash, no ounce of remorse or sadness in her eyes before looking back at them coldly.

"Do I get the throne now?"

Her questions echoes through the room. Her sinister smile on display as the castle fills with the sounds of fingers snapping and her laugh. Maniac, insane and hollow.

Each snap is followed by a thud and screams as every single member of her family drops dead who could dare to go against her even in the future.

The other kingdoms are informed about the horrendous rise of the most powerful villianess to ever exist.

The woman who knew no mercy and pity. The woman who killed her own family without a single tear of regret and found solace in the isolation. A monster has been born, they said. No.

The monster has been in between them all along. It was just unleashed now. And it was too late to realise it. There was no one who could stop her reign.

The reign of darkness and atrocities. One woman. Unlimited chaos. Whoever dared to question her was put to eternal sleep. This was their end. This was their start.

Their future was darkness and so was their present. It was kneel or die. She didn't play with words when she said that.
