KARA AND THE KINGDOM OF MONSTERS
(Part 1)
Ravaria empire is my home. A land filled with kingdoms and different troops. I serve the kingdom of Vreca.
I'm Zara, the only witch, given responsibilities to serve under the Vreca Welfare for people.
I am the youngest to pass out of the Witch Craft Academy, which also means I lack experience in real-time 'witch will help' situations.
Given the little responsibilities, I had nothing much to do other than curing people quickly with my health potions in this danger-free town.
I stay in the outskirts of the town, in a little mounted home, surrounded with gardens of different herbs and plants, which are dangerous as well as useful to create inventions with the knowledge I have.
It was early morning, the sun just shone bright and woke my plants. I woke up naked and stretched myself in front of the mirror. I looked at the mirror, and noticed how the side courses of battling gave me a toned body, a body even women want to crave for.
I quickly put on my robe, which was just made of a single line of cloth and no design with a powerful color, red and was a mandatory dress code for new witches.
Anzu, my follower, which is a young bird and a future dragon to be, was silently watching me from the corner and with a palm clap, it flew and came over to my shoulder, seeping its curved foot nails into my robe.
"You need to learn some manners, young one," I said while calming its feathers.
We went down and did our usual chores and before stepping outside the invisible gate, I found a scrolling on the dead mud.
I took it out, and it read an important message which I had to read early in the morning. I check it and the perfectly written words say I need to be there at the chamber around noon. I quickly threw the scrolling near my door and whistled at Anzu and, with no thought, made my way to the Vreca Chambers, which was at the heart of the town.
"You're late, my lady," came a firm voice up front when I was slowly watching my step to enter the enormous chambers.
It was Hedrick, one of the many right men of the king, (always wondered where he ranked under them)
"Apologies, sir," I replied while panting.
"You made two men wait for so long, Miss Kara, and there's a lot that happens in this town when you don't obey the rules," he smirked.
"I play by my rules, Master Hedrick,"
The people gathered around the open stage and I sat in the centre between Hedrick and Wilbert, another important person who's a loyal prick for the king.
"Today, on this brightening day, we shall welcome the recent addition to this Welfare society, Miss Kara"
'Wait, so all these days, these people thought I was just a servant? Assholes'
I waved at them in despair.
Suddenly, Hedrick put his left arm at the side of my chair.
I stared at him.
"You all witches.... you are under us, right?" He hissed, leaning his mouth near my ear.
"Well, we don't report to you, which means otherwise," I answered. My arrogance kicked in.
He smirked, and I suddenly could feel his hands on my thigh. I gasped at this unusual touch.
"Uhm...." I whispered in confusion.
He slowly brushed away the robe I wore and placed his strong hand on my naked thigh. His palms were rough with all the warfare he's been with, and he quietly brings those palms in between my legs.
I catch his wrist and stare at him with discomfort and disapproval.
"Hands on the table witch," he commanded, "you don't want these people to have a clue on what's happening under this table."
I didn't move, my skin got chills with his touch and the voice of him made me think on how to behave.
