Chapter Twenty Two
The Queen's POV:
I WAS SO HAPPY WHEN I was able to finally get what I've worked so hard for. To curse all of those who wronged me, and to put them in a place of my own creation. To lock them up for as long as I can, and they won't even remember a thing, I just needed my sisters' blood and that was all. Though, capturing her and her friends seemed worth it, when there could have been many other ways of gathering her blood, since she was the closest living relative to me, and I didn't really feel like traveling across the realm to find my other brothers who just didn't seem good enough to me. Though, they would all join me soon, to where we are going. It's going to be better than this place would ever be, and I wish to take everyone with me. It would make sense, and I could start over as Queen of this new world, and Matteos would be able to do whatever he wished, and I could care less. I just wanted things the way they were before everything was so screwed up, and I wished that things were easier for me. Though, they were never easy, and I had to work my ass off for years, and it took me many more years to learn dark magic, it was a good thing that we never aged in thus world, but it felt like a curse itself too. A world where you can never grow too old, but stay young until you die by some other natural cause beside aging. Though, you don't stay young for your eternal life, it's really complicating how the world cooperates with the aging principles and fundamentals. I don't really feel like explaining all of our world right this moment, when I have my life to take care of.
I'm just sick and tired of doing things for other people, and that no one ever gives back. Working hard as a Queen meant that I didn't have any free time, and my council was always on my ass about taxes and what I want to do with it and what not. It was almost every day I had lawyers coming into my throne room, and berating me about how I don't spend my money on things that our kingdom doesn't need. Gan'Dor is running low on military, so I bought guards from the east, those who were willing to serve under discipline, and decent pay were employed. Those who didn't follow me... well I didn't really need them anyways. I had enough for a military, and the other kingdoms were happy that we were keeping business together, and what not. So I didn't care, as long as I had enough men to control my kingdom, then I was fine. Plus, no one would want to mess around with an Evil Queen, with magic mind you.
We were on the top of my castle, the wind was blowing ferociously the higher we were. There were five of my guards who brought Salaria to me, bound by rope and holding her hostage. I feel so close to my curse that I'm going to cast, I could just taste the delicious flavors of revenge. For Salaris who told my mother about my first love, and that I never wanted to marry some old fool in the West. She was going to pay, and this first curse wasn't good enough. Salaria ended up with our brothers, and I ended up with no one, and not even father. It was upsetting to see everyone leave, and me to just be alone; for nearly an eternity. It was cruel, and it was my own consequence, also I didn't customize the curse to my fitting the first time around. Though, it will be different this time. I watched with a devil smile as Salaria struggled to free herself from fighting the hold against her.
"Stop fighting my dear. Your struggle will end soon." I said with a smile, and she looked at me with a burning look of hatred. I could tell she was feeling angry, and I could clearly see it written all over her face. That look of pure anger. Oh, it just made me want to laugh out in joy. To see someone so angry at me, who was blood related to me... I just wanted to smile. For some reason it made me feel good about myself knowing that someone else was feeling my pain; though, no one would need to worry about me after I cast this curse.
"What do you want?!" She yelled out at me. I waved my hand and a very massive cooking pot with an already started fire beneath it appeared in between the eight of us (me, Salaria, and the five guards). I was just glad that I'd be able to finally really do what I wanted to do for a long time, and this curse is just the beginning of my revenge. I know who Salaria's first love of her life is; and I can always make sure to play around with that and make her suffer.
I may or may not kill him, depending on how they both screw me over, but that doesn't matter right now. What I want, is what I want, and I'll get it. No matter how long it would take me.
"I wanted you." I told her with a wide smile and waved my hand and stepped towards her, as I walked around the cooking pot. "Give her to me." I demanded, and two guards pushed her up to me. She stumbled forward, and I caught her with a tight grip; ad I held her by her hair. I cut a huge number of hair off, which made her hair short, and tossed it into the pot. Her screaming was annoying, and I quickly let go to wave my hand to shut her up, and it worked. Her mouth was sealed for now.
"Now, your blood." I told her with another psychopathic grin and used my knife and cut her arm just enough to make it bleed and dampen my knife. I shoved her back to the guards, and used the knife to cut open my arm just enough to again dampen the blade. As the blood mixed on the blade, I tapped it over the cooking pot, and a red cloud of smoke puffed out of the cooking pot. The blood was acceptable, so it was good. Nothing to worry about, I called for a couple more vials of bone marrow, and billowisk (a type of flower in my world) dropped it in the pot. This was it. It was time for my new beginning.
I turned to face Salaria and the guards and waved my hand they released her, and her mouth loosened. She wouldn't say anything, and she was just in awe of the cloud of smoke that billowed out into even more gigantic clouds of smoke. The last thing I can recall, was the smile across my lips, as I thought about my new beginning. Was it such a bad thing to start over?
Author's note: I'm glad that I'm finally able to finish this book! Even though it's 23 chapters, it's more than what I'd normally do. It feels like it's done, though I'll add little appendixes for you guys at the end of my book. Where the map would be and language, and everything else that's important to a fantasy story! Please don't forget to comment, vote, and tell your friends about my book! Especially since I'm finished with it. :)
Also, I would like to have your guy's thoughts on how I should write the next book. Should I write it in one point of view (which would either be Salaria's or Queen Zamaria's?) Or should I write it in 2-3 points of views like I did with this book?
