Chasing The Queen

The girl’s eyes met and with each tear that slid down Elizabetta’s face, Laretta felt as if it branded her heart. Suddenly, she couldn’t take it any longer as a fierce growl rumbled throughout the room, stopping Rhett instantly.

His eyes darted towards the cell, shocked and surprised. But then a smirk played across his lips. He could sense the power he knew that was in her, coursing heavily through her veins. Soon, he would be the most unstoppable creature alive.

Every memory of her life had been returned to her, every spell that her mother had taught her. A howl tore from her mouth as Rhett began to scream, stumbling backward as fire began to consume his body. His fingers tore at his body, trying to rid itself of the flames that ate away at him.
