In what felt like seconds, Maurinette arrived at her destination. The vampire puts her down and points at the door. She stares at the brown wooden large door before her. It had spiral designs and was shining so bright that she could see her reflections. She took a heavy breath as her eyes roamed the corridor.
It had royalty written all over it, there was a large oil painting of a young deadly handsome man with another man standing besides him, who she recognizes as the person she murdered. Heat begins rise in her as her body stiffens, the corridor was cold, uninviting and spooky, like a scene from a horror movie. The vampire clears his throat to bring her back from her dream world.
"This way"
He opens the door and she walks in. She sees a tall handsome man who she recalls to be the man standing in the picture with his hands crossed. He had light blue reflective eyes which was warmer than he actually looked. His lips were pale, his skin was also pale. His blonde hair was neatly combed back. He wore a velvet shirt which had black Rose petal designs. She didn't need an introduction, she knew exactly who he was and the reality finally fell on her.
She had taken his son, she knew what it felt like to loose a loved one. His eyes turned from the men who he was secretly talking to and fell on her. Their eye balls made contact and the warm light blue eyes turned to a dark shade of blue
"What is this?"
"She is the one who killed Prince Redmond"
The King's skin could not get any paler than it was, she felt his anger rise as he directs his attention to the vampire
"Is this a joke?"
"My king, It was hard to believe but the only strange presence we felt there, was hers"
"Do you think the were wolves had the person?" he directs his question at Hanos who didn't seem to take his eyes off her
"Yes, I am positive. A were wolf attacked Edwin alongside the creature who killed Prince Redmond but it is extremely hard to believe that she is responsible"
"Get the doctor" the guards leave.
Maurinette shifts uneasily, being the center of attraction and absorbing every deadly stares coming from the men in the room
"Who are you?" Hanos asked, not being able to control his curiosity. She stares at him, her mind had gone blank, she couldn't think, didn't even know her name.
"Who are you?" he repeats, sternly. Her mouth splits and she lets a murmur escape. Thanks to his powerful sense of hearing, he heard her clearly.
"Maurinette. Did you kill the Prince?" she couldn't answer, couldn't move she was stuck to the ground, her mouth was glued shut. She was terrified, scared to death.

She felt relieved when the attention was turned from her, to the woman who walked in. She was stunning 'the queen' Maurinette thought to herself. She looked not less than twenty- eight years

The king breaks the silence emanating from the room
" who is she?"
The woman walks to Maurinette and stares at her, Maurinette stares back, noting how glassy her green eyes were. Her straight black hair fell down to her waist, she carried herself with so much poise to be the queen 'she is the doctor'
Maurinette's eyes widen when she realizes that she us a witch just like Schilla 'she'll hurt me too'
Maurinette steps back and the doctor holds her hand with a bone shattering grip. She was definitely stronger than she looked.
"What is your name" In contrast to her killer grip, her voice was calm, warm and comfortable. Unlike Schilla's screech.
"Maurinette" she says with little confidence, unsure of why she had opened up to her
"Maurinette. Who are you" Maurinette realizes that she wanted her to tell her everything about herself. Could she remind herself of her horrible very recent past or how she was treated badly in her other town. 'I must really have a thing with bad luck' she thought as she turns her face away from the doctor's stare, she loosens her grip and gently caresses Maurinette's hand which startled her.
"I won't hurt you. Tell me how you killed the prince. I need to know this so I can help you" she says in a whisper
"I was trying to defend myself, I didn't mean to. He wanted to kill me"
"What did you do?"
"I snapped his neck with my legs" Maurinette looks down, sorry and regretful of her actions but she couldn't control fate.
"Look at me" Maurinette raises her head and stares into the doctor's eyes, her legs begin to give up on her. Her eye lids become heavy, she slowly closes her eyes and falls into a deep sleep. Affira rests her on her body, the guard walks to her and carries Maurinette while she walks to the king
"I have never seen anyone who has such strength. Especially if she is a young, timid girl. This is not natural, I'll try to find out who she is. She will be with me and I'll relay my findings to you in a day" the king nods as she walks out with the guard carrying Maurinette.
