Her Blood - (Whispers of Fate: Book 1)

Chapter 39

Third Person's Point of View:

The Royal castle of the Klataria stood on a small hill in the capital city. Crows and vultures were flying around it.

Lord Darkness in his long black gown walked down the corridor towards the grand hall.

Everyone in his way bowed. They were scared of him.

Lord Darkness smirked. He loves to watch terror in people's eyes.

Two soldiers opened the doors of the grand hall and Lord Darkness entered.

The hall went silent for some seconds.

"All hail Darkness!" People started chanting.

Lord Darkness' blood red lips curled into a smile.

He walked towards his throne; it was made of skulls and bones. His 10-feet tall frame made the people in the grand hall look like dwarfs.

"Silence," he said in his heavy voice and sat on his throne.

"Smith," he said.

"Yes, my Lord," Smith said, stepping forward.

"Is the girl captured?" Lord Darkness asked.

"I'm sorry, my Lord, our soldiers weren't able to bring her. She was last sighted in the city of Serup," Smith replied.

Lord Darkness' golden eyes narrowed at Smith.

"Burn the soldiers who weren't able to bring her to me," His nostrils flared in anger.

"Smith, I want her in this hall soon," he said and stood up.

"Yes, my Lord. She'll be here soon," Smith said.

Lord Darkness snapped his fingers and teleported to the streets of the capital city.

He walked around.

"So much has changed," he said to himself.

All the streets were empty, and the shops were closed.

He looked towards the red sky and sighed in relief.

'Soon everything will be mine again,' he thought.

"... you're a loser!"

"Please let me go."

"No, first you'll have to kiss my shoes."

Lord Darkness heard some kids' voices and frowned.

'Glazio,' he whispered and turned into a little boy.

Lord Darkness headed towards the kids.

He saw a red-haired boy hitting another boy.

"Why did you tell your father that I bully you?" the red-haired boy said, slapping.

The other boy had tears in his eyes.

"Who are you?" the red-haired boy asked Lord Darkness.

"Your death," Lord Darkness answered.

"You, little boy, can do nothing," the red-haired boy laughed, ruffling Lord Darkness' hair.

Little did the red-haired boy know that this little boy was no other than Lord Darkness.

"Glazio," he said and turned back into Lord Darkness.

He slapped the red-haired boy hard.

Lord Darkness' eyes were burning with anger.
