Chapter5:

Kisara's POV:
"Seto!" I screamed, but there was no reply.
Ra, what had done? Why did I have to this curse bestowed upon me? It makes my life like the afterlife.
Sobs escaped from my lips, but I was quickly silenced by a sharp slap across the face.
I looked up and saw Priest Akunadin looking down on me.
"How dare you," he seethed, "How dare you gain my son's affection by seducing him! How dare you even touch him with your filthy hand you worthless garbage! I will not allow you to bend my son to your will! You hear me, never! You have some nerve pulling your little games on him, but he will not suffer your torture any longer! My son will never be polluted by the likes of you!"
"What are you talking about? I didn't do anything! I did not twist and bend him to my will, you're the one who's doing that!" I spat back.
These words earned me another sharp slap across the face. A thin stream of blood ran down my chin from my lower lip.
"You release that girl this instant!" I heard a voice say.
Priest Akunadin didn't release me though, he just held me even tighter. I didn't know a man so old could have so much strength. It was amazing how strong he was.
"I said, put her DOWN!!!!"
Then I heard footsteps coming closer at an extremely fast rate.
"That's an order! Put her down NOW!!!!"
Priest Akunadin doubled-over in pain as Pharaoh punched Akunadin in the gut. I collapsed to the floor and was picked up by the Pharaoh and carried back to the palace's medical chambers.

When I woke up, I saw the familiar surroundings of the palace's medical chambers.
"Feeling any better?" a voice asked.
I turned my head. It was Seto.
"Yes, thank you. I'm feeling much better," I replied.
He stood up and sat next to me. It was only then that I noticed he had bandages on him with cool cloths. He was probably burned, but I do not know how.
"What happened to you?" I asked, not wanting to see my beloved hurt.
"It's nothing, but never mind that, tell me why you're being swallowed up by the shadows."
