The boy in my dreams

The boy in my dreams
SOMEWHERE AT THE BAY OF TUSKY
A King shivered in tears as the shadow of a daring young man rested upon him.

"You're...you're Pyrrhus Cole aren't you? How much were you paid? How much? What did you need from me?" The king asked in a shaky voice while Pyrrhus smiled coyly under the mask be was wearing while cleaning the sharp dagger on his victim's face.

Then with a cool and serene voice be replied, "You killed a family of four because the father knows your secret , and this Month, you killed another set of families for ritual"

The king was surprised on how he got to know his secrets. He had his heart in his moth now as he was shivering badly.

"Who are you?" He asked with fear.

Pyrrhus slid the mask down reveling his beautiful face. "I am Pyrrhus Cole ! The Assassin that kills like Azzrail the angel of death, ad I have come to kill you today" Pyrrhus whispered and thrust a spear down his throat.

"Don't blame me, you're paying for your sins, you shouldn't have killed those innocent soul, Goodbye King"He whispered before he flew out the window.

Now to his next target.

BACK AT ABRAMAR KINGDOM
Prince Gabe stood in daze and shock as Mila's best friend held a small toy in which was an human hair.

"What are you Judy? Did I request for exorcism?"

"Please stay still Prince Gabe I'm washing away the evil spirits from you" Judy replied murmuring something like an incantation under her breath.

Prince Gabe stop from his bed furiously and slapped away the charm doll. Then he faced he dazed expression with a frown, "Judy are you out of your mind? What in earth are you cleansing me for?"

Just shot him a deathly gaze, "From Mila and her mother's spell don't you see? I visited in one witches of Maldives and she told me you're under a very dark spell" Judy affirmed with sure and surreal tine as if to say whatever she was saying his true.

Prince Gabe released his tightened gaze and looked at her from head to toe. He wondered if she had been harboring thoughts if seducing him before Mila left.

Judy was looking at him with expectant eyes now, seeing that he made no objections, she smiled in her heart that her plans are working.

Suddenly, Prince Gabe pointed to the door, "Get out of my room, you're out of your mind!"

As she heard this, her once raised hopes were dashed and she subconsciously bursts out crying.

"Don't you see! Mila is using you, and I'm pretty sure she planned her own capture!. Who knows if she's working with the assassin just to get away from you!". She lamented through her sobs but it only made matters worse.

Prince Gabe face hee again and crossed his hand, arms akimbo, "What do you want exactly Judy? What exactly do you want from me!?" He asked this time with a loud yell.

"I want you Gabe!! I want you to treat me the way Mila! I want to be your lover!",She cried out in desperation. Prince Gabe sighed deeply and pushed her out harshly.

"I belong to only Mila!!!" He said and shut the door to her face.

>The Next Morning<
Mila opened her eyes and yawned loudly and turned around to to see herself still in Pyrrhus's room.

She yawned heartily, and made to leave then she remembered that she was still in his room. She was in his room overnight? What has he done to her when she was asleep?

She opened the blanket as quick as she could but heaved a huge sigh of relief as she discovered that her clothes intact and her injured finger was no longer hurting.

She stood up immediately and made I leave the room but a note dropped from her side.

N.B: TAKE CARE OF MY SON. I'LLBE BACK SOON. -Pyrrhuss

Mila smiled at the letter. She thought that matter how she imagined it, she couldn't Understand it.
If he hates her so much then why did he let her sleep in his room and on his bed too and Eve leave her a note.

"Is he having a change of heart?" She murmured as she read the letter over and over again.

Still reminiscing and romanticizing on the letter he gave her, Little Phoenix came into the room.

"Mother? Are you awake?" she heard Little Phoenix's murmur and came into the room and habitually rubbing his eyes.

She dropped the letter and picked the little bun up. "Good morning Phoenix, Did you sleep well?. She replied stretching her hands and he came into them hugging her.

Mila hugged him and kissed his forehead, she couldn't help but smile at the way his curly black hair grazed her skin.

"Where's Father?"He asked

"Your father is out working; Will Little Phoenix like to help mother in the kitchen? I asked in reply and he responded by nodding vigorously.

Such a cute bun she thought.

Came late noon already and Pyrrhus was yet to be back from wherever he went.

Little Phoenix was already asleep thanks to the corn flour soup she had given him.

Mila was now left alone, which made her unnesarily bored.

She whistled the same song had always whistle to her every morning with a cup of tea in his hand and couldn't help but get sad all of a sudden.

King Ebenezer was always the vibrant king of the palace.He was strict with the maids but he was kind too.

"Why does Pyrrhus hate him so much and why does he think my father was the murderer of his family?"

As she sat there wondering, her mind or Maybe her memory or perhaps her brain, drafted to a dream she had always had.....

"Please save me" the little boy in her dream pleaded with tears.

The little Mila was carried by a palace maid from the scene leaving the boy to suffer alone.

She remembered as she whispered... "I am sorry"
