The counterparts wish

by Lakiin Householder

It all begins with connection And for Lily Dreammaker that is everything to her It saves her life and others. To what’s the forbidden wish forbidden power? This is her story. This a different take on the fairytale princess type of story I hope that you enjoy this different take on a Timecrest story of a fairytale adventure not all of that is fairytale, but some of it is I will thro

15. Chapter 12 Engagement

I don't own Time Crest, all right, belong to sneaky crab

here's the 12th chapter of the story I know some of the stories that these chapters have been more slow down chapters. Don't worry, will pick up back to more stuff soon, but we need to do some lighter chapters in between to keep things fresh and I was thinking about a fun engagement party chapter. It might not be very long or maybe it will be, but I just thought that would be fun, especially since after the two intense chapters of the binding ceremony, I just thought it might be fun for a slow-down chapter so I hope you enjoy and have a great time.

it has been a few days since the binding ceremony to find the Olympians to the human world. I was exhausted. It was a lot of work, but I did it turn down to earth and untied from Malaysia there on time. Now they have to figure out what they're gonna do with the rest of their lives. I already know what I'm doing and I know what Luther is doing too, but I don't know what the others are planning on doing. I hope they will aid me in fighting against my evil villain and the bogeyman and help me take back my kingdom that's what I'm hoping that's not the whole reason I sent them here brought them here. I brought them to be safe so they don't get killed, I don't want them to die that's the last thing I want so I hope that they help me, especially the ones with magic and I accidentally brought their villains here to their enemies are also here among us that's not right I shouldn't have been able to bring them here and yet I can sense that they're here well we'll have to deal with that too when that gets to that point.

I was standing at the window of my room when I saw him walk up my path to my driveway from Ion. He's been staying there for a while to get to know his fellow and sins, but to be with them, especially Ash they just discovered themselves as siblings, and I tore that from them. Once I separated them it wasn't my fault that they were separated, though, it was Oliver's fault. All of us fault for everything. It was his fault that we are that now this is what's going to have to happen he's the one who separated the siblings from getting to know one another.

but he looks happier. Now that he's here in the human world among us walking among us, the first part of him, I saw with the top of his head is pale, blonde hair shimmering in the sunlight. Then I saw the rest of his face and his eyes he walked up the driveway of the house and knocked Mother let him in or you know you don't have to knock. I heard her say hello Mrs. Dreammaker I heard him say remember I told you you can call me Serafina she said laughing of course Serafina is Lillian's course. Where else would she go laughing I would figured you sent her out on an errand, then I laughed. He was funny.

no, I didn't center on Eran. She's been asleep for a while tired out from whatever it is you were doing the other day finding ceremony she was bonding us to the Earth to this world and I'm biting us from Alysia. I see so your friends and family have made it here safely, he nodded at her. Yes, I can't wait to meet most of them, especially your siblings. I heard the ashes of the bundle of energy, ashes it is that even though ashes are only 16 ashes full of everything full of himself, wonder, and discovery, I was never that way at his ashes age I just saved the world at that point and exhausted. I said the world a year before and two years before that I destroyed an empire Mom's face with pale for a moment you did what they were evil though Serafina makes sense I mean I wouldn't see you destroying someone good you're too pure for that, I wouldn't say I'm content completely pure. He said how do you have someone evil living inside my head all my life so I couldn't say I'm completely pure you're pure enough you're enough to know that you were perfect for my daughter, even if you did destroy the empire, long time ago doesn't mean that you would repeat your mistakes, unless I need to fight worse that makes sense. No, I would done of course she's home. She's resting from well like I said from when you after the binding ceremony that you all are done, he nodded. Is she sick? No no no she's just resting she's upstairs.

is there something else you need to say to me before I have the lady come and speak with you? I'd like to speak with you alone if that's OK with you Serafina of course of course you can speak with me alone or would you like to speak? Here is fine as long as Lily doesn't come downstairs and listen in on our conversation, of course, they were talking about me. I couldn't hear them thank goodness, but I knew that was what was going on. Somehow I knew it.

I love your daughter I know we never we don't know each other well, but I can date her through this. What are you asking me she asked I'm asking your permission for me to read her your permission for you to give her away to me. I'm not at her head. Yes, keep going. I know she just got out of a tough marriage. Yes with Alex the bogeyman, I know you do not want to give her away again I didn't get permission only my husband did I only agreed because I knew that was the best and I didn't know you were still alive. I know you're alive right in front of me if I had known, I would've allowed them to get married, but he would've made her marry him anyway and I wouldn't have been able to stop it

I know you're a little hesitant and giving her away to me but I'm sure you'll take great care of her. You don't need to worry I'm not gonna hurt her. I had to cut through the connection because of my destruction of older. I had to cut ties for a moment, but I didn't know for how long it was going to be then everything changed 16 years later, a game of his of our lives was created, and it was a new counterpart kind of, not really they were made from the players of the game but I didn't know that the whole point of me reconnecting. What's the watch with Ash was to find Lily. I want her to find her. The whole point was to find her again and I did, but I didn't expect to find her alive just like my sibling Ash I didn't expect to find Ash alive either.

there's a lot of things I wasn't expecting. I wasn't expecting to find Ash alive. I wasn't expecting when I finally got here to the human world and the world of nightmares trap the nightmare Mountain. My greatest nightmare is finding Lily dead Ash dead any of my family and friends gone for me. It was endless torture when I was asleep, but your daughter rescued me. I didn't know what it was first and then she brought me home here. Just let me out on her bed and looked at me for a while before she kissed me. She even wept on me for a bit. She never mentioned that when I finally woke older close for a moment, I knew then that she was my true love she was mine, her kiss woke me from my nightmare sleeping her so I was put under was over. I never told any of the other lesbians I never told him that I was under a sleeping curse. You should tell them he shook his head and freaked out if they knew Ashli specially, Ashli almost lost me my miracle Ash hasn't lost me yet because of your daughter rescuing me on time I would've died under that curse she wasn't the one I would've died under that curse but now I'm alive. Thanks to it she reversed it I don't know if my enemies know I'm alive awake but everyone else knows it mostly knows that I'm not dead at least that's a good thing but I don't know I was under a sleeping curse that could've killed me. Mother hugged him. Oh you poor thing I'm so glad you shared a lot of that with me she said.

I would've married her right then and there if it wasn't for her saying that she wasn't ready for marriage right now and she isn't you think she'd be ready now even if I do get engaged with her I want to wait a few years even though I can't wait, I know that's important to her. I know restoring your kingdom is very important to both of you, do you think it'll weaken everyone else?

you mean you think my husband and the others are under a sleeping spell it could be possible the bogeyman has great power. He can put people under a sleeping spell if they're not dead, but I reassure you that I think they're all dead, but I would like for you to help me clean out all the bodies and reset up the kingdom. I would love to take my throne and I would love for you and my daughter to inherit it, so yes, I agree to yawls marriage for date and be engaged for a while before you decide before you jump into a marriage now because I want you to see if you're the right fit it's more for Serafina it's more for Lily sake than mine because of her recent marriage to Alex I know she's been divorced since 2012 or Jermaine just recently got divorced but she's been married a while I understand but I'm glad you're allowing me to be with her to date her. At least I know she's happier in love with you I love her too.

so, if you're seeking my daughter's hand, I am, I would graciously accept that you would accept to take her hand in marriage. I know your mother would be very happy. She was reanimated back to life when the wish was granted, so I did speak to her a little bit. I haven't told her about Lily. She only met her once. When was she free, we bonded her to the world, but she never really met and sat down and talked to Lily. I'd like for that to happen too and I'd like for you to meet my mother, Helena, and my father Julius. Of course, I would love to meet them with more hands on deck that is the merrier I say.

when it's settled, I'll have you meet my mother soon. Maybe I'll invite her over and we can have dinner just us you Lily, Helena and maybe my father Julius what about Ash Ash to Ash would be thrilled. I think I should enjoy it as well. Sounds great will fix a lot of human food here in the human world. You don't get a lot of that since this is your first time I've eaten a bunch of it but the others haven't do you want my mother to make her famous griffin egg sandwiches of course that would be great. That would be lovely. I heard she's a great cook, he nodded his head. Yes, and I can cook as well. Hi, I didn't know that my daughter doesn't cook much. She never was a great cook. Neither is Riley Riley, my friend all of them. I mean mother and best friends. Carla is a great cook. nice yes have your mom make her famous sandwiches as well but I'll make some great delicacies that are very famous here too winking sounds awesome sounds great I'm looking forward to that dinner party it's not a dinner party but I guess you could say it kind of is more like a dinner meeting I meet your parents they get to meet me and they get to meet more of outlet learn more about Lily I love it good and that is settled when in a few days maybe two or three days I need to get my mom ready for it course. She'll probably want to start cooking right away.

do you have a ring? Yes, I had it resized though it used to be the one to Karen a long time ago from another time in place, when I was engaged to Riley. You were engaged to Riley. Yes, she was my fiancé for a while then well she just threw the ring back at me and I couldn't bother to sell it and I was in another lifetime, so I held onto it. I brought it back to the timelines with me. I didn't know objects could come back to me. I know my memory dilation serum research did, but I didn't know that I could bring physical objects with me as well, except for the pocket, and watch, of course.

I was going to re-give it to Riley Nana's engagement ring but as a friendship ring, but she didn't want it and I didn't know I was going to ever see my counterpart ever again so I didn't expect to hold onto the ring there this long, so I held onto it for this moment, I had it resized and resent what she care. If it was a used ring from another woman, Riley barely wore it. She didn't even wear it much except for that one date we had that she threw it down, and tossed it to the ground. so the ring was barely used, barely worn that one day, and made me sad realizing that we will never get to use it again. and now I do I'll get to use it over another chance and I have a reunited with the one with my sweet counterpart your daughter I know your father probably would not allow me to marry her. I love her, and I will protect her as much as I can, I do promise, I'm not like the bogeyman I'm not like that Alex person who wants to hurt her

Mother thought for a moment, and I don't know what her father would think. He died with everyone else, so I don't know what he would think if he realized how much you love her. Do you think it was weird? Think about it, Sarah Thena I would love for you to give me your blessing. Of course, I give you my blessing always special, and want you to become a believer before you decide completely that marriage is the way of our religion. We can't Maryada someone not in our religion or that's not a believer, because it could be harmful to us All to learn how to do that and the rest of us as well. We owe her for saving us from Valencia in the grasp of Alvin so we will. I'll talk to her about that too. I haven't gotten to read the book the good book you call the Bible, so I'll do that. I'll spend my time in prayer and meditation, find my way to the Lord, and that you talk about. I'll do whatever it takes to be with her.

why don't we have the dinner on Sunday? Really? Yes, the best way to start to get you into Christianity is to go to church. We do have a church in this community in our quarantine zone area and she wants to say it is more of a town than a quarantine zone than your town that was a quarantine zone. I heard Lily talk about it. Stop at how terrible it was for you to be there. We have a lot of freedom in ours even though we don't have much they do allow us to go to church at least, so how about it? How about you invite your mom and your dad and Ash about everyone that would be a little much first you could invite Scarlet she could even come to dinner that would be great to start. It's like a sister to me, that's why I wish she was all even if I should ask his parents or the elders they'll come to rain I don't know if they'll come to dinner but they could come to church with us. I'd like that very much so if they do come, so will have Eldon your parents the time press a Luther, not an audit. Yes, Ash Scarlet sounds right yes, all right then on Sunday it will we will have dinner after church. I have to get the big leaves out to make the table longer but we need to make the dining room table bigger. I can't wait this is gonna be fun.

ring box in his pocket he walked upstairs to my bedroom. He knew where it was. He's been there. He stayed with me for many months, so he knows where my room is. I heard his knock on the door. I told him he could come in he didn't have to knock I just wanted to make sure you weren't changing clothes he said oh I'm not, you can come in come in, and open the door. I saw the biggest smile on his face as he opened his eyes as violet eyes looked sparkling. I ran up and hugged him. You're full of energy. I slept well after the bonding ceremony I slept for days I can tell I didn't eat though, and got out of bed to eat and all that stuff in bed. I didn't stay in bed all the time but I didn't and I was on social media. OK, I was making sure you didn't sleep all day long I laughed. What do you expect? I was expecting to see you in pajamas size danced as he laughed which that's not a bad thing. I love seeing you in that way I giggled. It was so funny I love him very much. Do you have something special in mind for today, I was hoping you get dressed up as I'm not taking you out, but my mouth dropped open. Do you have any money?

I didn't mean it in the way I said it I didn't mean did you have any money as in are you rich? I meant do you have money because you're in the human world you can't use your gold gold is not a currency here no I don't. That's fine I do but I want to treat you course you do I'll tell you want. I'll ask my mom and maybe she can help Rich you know I know OK well I have to go and get it now. Why don't you get changed when I go ask mom for the money first then I'll go get changed I said taking his hand in mine all right and then I'll figure out where we're going to go you can go somewhere without having to pay for anything you know maybe that's a good idea.

can you go get changed? I'll go fix us a picnic lunch I'll go to Ion first. I'm gonna re-create Riley's date that I had with her on her timeline but with you, there are no flower fields, though I said no I said I did see a park once when we walked together one day when I first came, we walk through the town the first time. did you see a picnic table? Um, no, but we can sit on the ground. That's what I did with Ashli in Riley I remember I said as I looked at him, I watched your memories and I lifted them so rapidly and I remember the fight you had with her too. I should've thought. Don't worry though I will not fight with you like that I know you wouldn't, I just wanna re-create that night that day. I should say it was night time it was midday lunchtime lunch. is it what is this? Yes, it is.

I'm gonna go make it and then I'll pack the picnic basket and I'll come back for you and I will walk to the park or not sounds good we need a walk anyway I agree since everyone right I haven't had a chance to have a time with you too Chris I know I need to spend time with my family and friends but I do not bring anyone else along. Just you and me sounds good. I'd like to be alone with you. Good now you eat 08.

he kissed me and walked out to fix lunch for us just the two of us, me and him alone. I hope we have more dates like this. Not exactly going to the park like this but more dates. I know what you meant. I'll see you in a bit see you I said as he walked out I saw him walk back to the back to the palace better ion I saw him walk freely back. I know you'll be back though I wanted to follow, it wasn't for me to so I went back to my room and went to change, I wanted to change my clothes to something nicer but comfortable I know I had something nice and comfortable somewhere in my closet. It was a warm day so I looked through my drawers.

I didn't like any of my shorts and T-shirts and they weren't nice enough for a date even if it was a trip to the park I finally gave up and looked for anything out of there. I went to my closet.

I found a beautiful little sundress I could wear and went down to my ankles, at least or not my ankles to my knees. I put a little color on a little bit of makeup at least on my cheeks. At least maybe a little lipstick I braided my hair from the back And light pink lipstick, I will go to a crown of flowers and I put in my hair similar to what Riley did with her hairstyle except different. They were different colors and different types of flowers they were lilies. It was for my name's sake but I also put other colors, purple flowers like violets with the color of his eyes, And different colors of different kinds of flowers for shoes I put on Flat sandals, but they were bejeweled and they were my favorite pair. They were flimsy but I love them. I didn't feel like putting on socks and shoes. At least they weren't heels. He didn't care if I wore heels or not he had seen me at my worst, he had seen me without makeup before and yet he still loved me for me and I'm glad of that one moment that I was loved by someone but I hope he could see me more than just his counterpart when we create a life together and then I see him more than just him being my Timecrest maybe OK I do I see him more than that. He's more than that to me and I can sense it from him too.

put a little perfume on and looked at me. In the mirror, I thought beautiful not like a princess I didn't wear my most beautiful dress because we were going to the park and I didn't wanna get it all dirty but I figured a fancier day I hope one day we will all wear more of my fancy or clothing, or when I become back to being a princess where my court close.

I told him when my kingdom is restored, he will have to become lord of the Court. Hopefully, we can get my kingdom restored before we marry. Then we can live our lives as royals before. The crowns are placed on our heads, which we will because my mother is it gonna become queen for a while I mean she's just a queen for a while.

I was ready now I went down the stairs handkerchief in my pocket, nice and bright, ready to go on my first full date. I never went on a date I mean we've been together, but we have never gone on a date Aunt, and who knows that my ex and I never went out on dates before we married, he just married me and that was that we never gone on dates try to see if we were compatible. It was because it because of the Petrova horse on the truth is to Luther whether or not Luther and I are married, meant to be betrothed but instead, we're going on dates to make sure we're compatible compatibility is important. Mom isn't forcing it if we're not meant to be then we won't Mary.

but if we weren't compatible, then I wouldn't have been able to wake him and he would've still been dead in a nightmare mountain and I would've come back empty-handed, or if I had brought him back, I'd be dead in my room and we'd have to bury him and his family and friends would've died in the Linzia and that would've been the end of it and I would kill myself with my arms around him dying. My mother would've found us both dead so we are we are compatible in some way or I wouldn't have been able to bring him back like a fairytale.

there you are Mother found me you look wonderful do you think so I asked yes you look beautiful in that outfit. Well, I hope so. I don't think you'll look beautiful in anything he is your betrothed I'm not I knew that was weird to me when I was betrothed to two different men I said it is weird Mom said, it is true. I wish your father would've just let you be retro to one and be done with it but I'm glad it's two people. Dad would've chosen Alex and he would've been in a turd of hurt right now. I had to intervene because of your counterpart's powers. If you weren't a counterpart, you would've been well you could've chosen whatever you wanted, and if you had a twin, one of you would've been the counterpart and the other would've been with Alex, I wish the twin would be with Alex. You probably would've been more likely because of your Petrova power of being a counterpart you would've been the youngest so you would've been more that made sense but then my poor sister unless she was a boy would've been worse. If you did have a brother then you would be stuck but if you had a sister, Bowen, then she would've been given to Alex and you would've been free to be with a man I love.

brushing a pet for a piece of my hair back she said I see him coming. I hugged Mother I saw him. He was smiling when he looked at me. He also smiled at my mother. I'm ready a basket was in his hand. I mischievous grin on his face my lady he said, darling don't have to. I said I teased him back he laughed. I never laughed like that with Riley and I did this with her and it was after our engagement party. I had a great time at the park Mom said if you need some time alone agreed we went to the park. I'm glad we chose a park date because I didn't have enough money on me to go anywhere fancier and he didn't have any cash. He didn't know how that worked so I had to show him, we had a maid or maid picnic, which was beautiful. I was excited.

I wanted to reach up and take the basket, but he said no let me it was an empty airfield, not filled with flowers like the one that Riley and he were at what would you pick such an empty place? The park doesn't have a field of flowers like I did, what I had for Riley and I got us a picnic table. Someone spread the blanket across the table like a tablecloth and will sit at the stone benches across from each other. I said no side-by-side.

do I look OK? I asked you look beautiful he said even if you just wore no makeup or even if you just wore shorts and T-shirts you still looked great it's not a dress I updated I know that I know it's not a dressy occasion but well, it's just have it I guess, your outfit looks simple. He said that was lovely. He sat outside on the picnic table with a blanket covering it, feeling the warm breeze around us.

it was a specialty Griffin egg sandwich, and I never had them before well my mother helped make them I wanted to make them myself, but she said that she insisted on it while I did help though they were so good. Can everyone in your family cook? I asked not everyone, my mom and I, and Ash miss Eldon as well as my family she kind of knows I guess she was Ashli's adopted mother after all so I counter is my mom to kind of give her. Thanks.

I want to thank her for raising ash I wouldn't have been able to do it. Tell her my thanks for that. Well, I guess a lot of people owe her things for something or other. And I'm glad she thinks of me like a son for her to be my mother and her husband Emile thinks of me like my father as well so it gives me two parents. I love them both like my own even though they don't replace Helena Julius's horse, they wouldn't know your birth parents, I do miss my father too, but part of me is glad he's gone. He wouldn't approve of me being with you. He would've not agreed to this marriage. I would've married you anyway Lily I love knows no bounds together I would make sure there was a way for us to be together.

I would've convinced your father to let me marry you. He insisted on keeping peace between us in our that your kingdom 90 things necessary but I don't think he realized it giving me marriage to Alex was going to insult my parents, my family, friends, and everyone I know were going to die in the massacre, I think he was going to kill me next anyway because my mother the reasonn he killed them was because my mother didn't agree to our marriage. 00 really yes because my mother didn't agree for me to marry Alex and this is what's going to happen my family and friends were killed my mother and I escaped with our two unicorns to earth to the weekend world to the world of you know the people who are sleeping the conscious world you call it yes, the conscious world, I'm scared to bring the Elysian's. I don't know if I wanna start a new life or not there I know I need to take my rightful place as queen one day and I want you by my side as my king, my king consort, my Lord of the Court, I'll be glad to do you know that but I never heard it called court. Why did they call with that?

I have no idea what I said, but that's what they call it. You'll become nobles you, your mom, your dad, Ash, and even the Eldons since they raised Ash and Scarlet as well. She could become the lady of the court and the other Lindsey ends your well I don't know about Ezra, but I do know that I am at the master's can also become part of the court. You'll become new members of our royal family the new royal family, the mother will still be queen obviously until she dies or decides to retire, and then will take over and be the only last air left. I am air to the throne I have to be protected. You're an air I noted I wasn't supposed to be an air is my family have lived. I would have been the heir, my oldest sibling would've been the air. The rest of us had other jobs to do in the court protecting dreams my job if I wasn't a counterpart if you weren't born in Timecrest would be to marry Alex, both shivered at the thought of making peace and bringing more heirs of bogeyman into the world that would've been. My job is to provide him with heirs, especially an air for and then we just start the cycle over again like Walther course my family was innocent in this we were cursed to the bogeyman family is fine with it. They are the ones who play this curse on us curse mother doesn't know about the curse I knew about it because I sugared, I went into the royal library one day, and I looked through books to read about my heritage am I rule and all of this and what part I have to play I didn't like what I found part of it gave me hope the curse can be broken, but there's only one way to break this curse one way

since you help me break my curse sleeping curse, I will help you break yours that's a promise. I'll keep it. I will not let whatever curse you have on you come true I was probably sent to your life for this very reason Lily I've had my arms around him loving my lips with his I know we were still eating, but we didn't care that we were lost in constant live luck. I thought his arms running up and down my children, arms, his hands pulling me close to him. I felt the warmth his body needed, it's OK Lily you're safe in my arms no matter what happens. I won't let that monster Alex hurt you ever again I know I was sent to your to the human world to save you. How did you know I didn't know for sure but after you rescued me, I realized it, I knew something was hurting you something keeps you bound to something else I'm not bound to you loser loser, darling Michael mean eyes shut a tears I will help you figure out this curse I will help you break it no matter what happens and I will make sure you're bound to me before the bogeyman gets his grubby hands on you again to pound me we have to marry soon I know I don't know how much longer we have. I want to enjoy dating you for a while. Not everyone I love is here. I can focus on that now.

let us finish eating soon it was warm again, but he didn't release his arms around me at least once arm at least while we continued eating. I was glad I was sitting next to him right now. I needed his comfort and I'm glad we were alone in the park silently as we finished eating. We didn't talk for the rest of the afternoon but I could tell his face was sent. I could tell his face was showing some kind of expression of fear, anger torment, and he wanted to pick me up, put me in his lap, and hold me I knew he couldn't do that in a public place like this.

create the desert and then and then I sought he got down and presented the box that had the ring in it that used to be Riley's ring. Now it's gonna be mine. I hope Riley doesn't get upset about it. I know what you were thinking and no she won't she doesn't remember, she will not recognize it. I raised her memory I'm not in agreement. Would you ever race mind if I did I would only erase the part that's hurting you I would only get rid of the painful memory, the memory of you being married to someone else and on it, but I can't raise a curse. I knew that I saw him knelt and grabbed my hand. My left hand, Lily Lily, dream maker, princess of the dream room, and my forever soulmate. He said my counterpart will you do the honor and being my wife and bride will you marry me I thought you never asked. I felt the ring slip onto my finger. The band that used to be Riley's ring fit my finger he had adjusted the course because my ring size was different than Riley's. Luckily, Chase came with us on the trip I was gonna have a make a new one but then I realized I didn't have the materials, what are you gonna do when he can't make new room jewelry he might find a new way to make jewelry maybe he can find a way to sell I told him maybe you can sell it and earn money you smell and that I have an a real jewelry business where you sell real jewelry not real jewelry, but not just trophy pieces but for people to make them happy now you get a piece of Valencia, the ring sparkle in the sunlight it was beautiful the beautiful flower looks so pretty. I deserve such a beautiful gift you deserve more and I'll give it to you.

I cried, happy tears fell from my eyes. Happy tears fell as I forgot to put my arms around him. I love Frowd flowed through him into me, and in that moment, I knew I knew that he loved me. I knew that he cared about me.

I prepared the way the dishes we were getting ready to leave the park. The basket was filled with the new ring on my finger. It was used, but I didn't care it was used. It was barely used. We won't Hand in Hand back home. I couldn't want the fresh hold of Yvonne yet not yet not till we were married, but I was fine with that and he walked me to my front door now. I must depart for a moment, but it's not yet night. It was a lunch date I smiled. I know what you come in. I got to take the basket back first I don't live far away indeed the castle was only not very far away from us and yet so far let me take the basket back and then and then we will discuss more plans OK?

I'll see you later we separated for a moment I went back into my own house. I watched as he walked back into the side of the ion. I can't wait to live in such a beautiful place like that not that I don't love my house but it would be wonderful to live inside that place.

my mind was on cloud nine as I walked inside, as promised protection as promised love I knew I had my soulmate, my Timecrest I thought to dream Lee about it I said dance Terrell in glee I never looked so happy the last time I was that happy was when I was a little girl but my kingdom was flourishing before I was in before I married either one of us that bogeyman back on my innocence were still intact. Even when I was still learning about being a counterpart not everything has been normalized I still feel numb sometimes like might've been stolen they were basically by the bogeyman himself I hope he knows he's taking a broken woman my true love when I'm with him I feel safe protected warm, like nothing will hurt me. It's long as I'm in his arms. My heart skipped a beat thinking about it.

then there's a dinner party on Sunday in the church service Dylan since I've never been to one before I wonder what they'll think about it I hope they choose if they do that'll be great for them. If not, they will be doomed to suffer for eternity they have to choose. What will they need to choose? He asked me what play the Lee I have to choose between now serving our Lord in heaven, or not then I'll be doomed I save them and you, but you have to make a choice a fridge from ALYSIA but you have to choose.

of course, I understand that I'll figure it out. I want to be with you if it means to be what you call a Christian I'll do it just to have me. Do you want to do it for yourself as well don't do it just for selfish reasons.

No need to pray and ask you'll receive ask. The door will be open for you. The door to life will be open for you, and for the rest of the illusions you just need to believe and ask for forgiveness for your sins, my sins, they all sin Reporters, I said if you realize your sin and ask for forgiveness, it'll be forgiven. If you ask for the Lord to enter your heart, he will he'll become your lord of your life. I'll think about it when I get back, he held me for a moment, and then he was gone.

I was sad for the moment he was missing for a bit not missing, but went back home, but happy to put down the ring on my finger and shimmer. It wasn't as sparkly as I was expecting. It wasn't a big giant diamond, but it was delicate maybe I can think of it as a promise ring, but it was a real engagement. I got down on one knee and everything, I do wish my father could see this and then I shivered and thought no he shouldn't see this. He wouldn't like the idea of me marrying my Timecrest because he would want me to stay in the other relationship that I had that I divorced Mom came in darling I was everything you dreamed, I nodded. It was hugging her.

what do you have on your finger? She asked and pulled my hand out. My left hand is the ring shimmer in the light. Oh darling, I know he pulled through for you, and on my head do you love him don't you ask yes since we were royal, my mother would break out in a British accent, I think it has to do with her name being well Serafina I guess we do have a British blood in our veins comes from mom side, even though we were from the world of dreams no OK I didn't mention this in the earlier chapters because it was difficult, and the other part of the story now breaking back into American accent. Well you know I wish your father would've been more excited. If he was alive he probably wouldn't approve of this marriage I not he probably wouldn't want to give me away. He wouldn't be proud of me for marrying my time, Preston mother stopped me for a moment. I think he would've been proud if he had seen the way that Alex treats you, he did mom but he didn't care. I think that's why our kingdom was destroyed. No dear it was because I didn't embrace your marriage to Alex. I want to return there I said shivering I have to take the incense to see it. I want to rebuild. I want them to have a home they can't live here on earth, and I was thinking that would be the best place close to the nightmare room yes.

I would worry I don't think you need to. I think it'll be a great idea. They probably won't get accepted here and they still be part of the human world. I thought about it I knew lived in my old home out of this cord quarantine area in this town I mean the people are nice here but I don't belong here I know Mom said, ensuring me to figure this out will return home Sunday and we will bring it back to his former glory. I also will make sure that our future children don't ever have to marry those horrible people the bogeyman ever again to mom said, will cut ties with them and start a new I want the idea of that but we're still at war against the bogeyman family and she would've thought I would love it Hass to fight in this war will he have to fight to yes, luckily most of them are magical people so they could help. I thought that would be great. Magic from Wednesday would be very helpful to me, I'll look down at my finger with the ring on it

I told him about having to become Christian before he married me, and he said yes, but he has to put his heart into it first I can't force him who is not there. The spirit has to speak to him first. I know that I love him more than anything. I love him. and I thought of his lips on mine again and the date we had at the park just a little while ago. I think I will have to meet with these people too. I haven't got to see them yet. I'm not a course we're having a party dinner party after church yes and I'll get to meet Mrs. Timecrest I'm so nervous because she doesn't like me Mom said threatening a bit, I think she would. I haven't met her much either is it for the time I touched her to find her I haven't seen much of her either Helena is her name. I haven't seen much of her but I would like to.

which did more than just bring them here it brought them back to life. The people who died on my calendar Julius Riley Racine depend on the choice you make both were alive to Scarlet. I even gave Scarlet back, her color and not her vision at least, but I came back or color and skin, at least did that for her so we could be like sisters, even though she's older than me and if this was done at home in our palace would be a ball to celebrate your engagement but unless I last we don't have that we don't have the palace. I have to figure out how to do this.

then I thought about something. What about Diane? What about it? It's a castle a palace. It should have a ballroom I think I don't know but if it does, we can still have a palace ball for my engagement. I said I was not at her head home. You might have something if it does, then we can use that can throw you the biggest engagement party ever.

it's not often that my daughter gets married twice or gets engaged twice. Even the first one was it was forced mother. I know that dear but still not often that you get engaged and married twice in your lifetime unless you get divorced I like the idea of using the castle, so what is needed to get it decorated right? Yes, and I have to figure out which room is the ballroom, or even if it has one it should most castles and palaces have one that's true, and a throne room I won't be using the castle to rule from myself. I will try to figure out how to rebuild our castle. Ewing and Luther should keep ion but your home it'll be your home, I'm not Lily. I love you darling.

all right, if that's what you want Mom give me the best for the two of you. I wish I could just let you all have the kingdom now and have the islands and live with you there and I stay here why I'll never see you again Mom you're my only family left, I was supposed to die in that fire in that destruction. Mother said we both don't belong there anymore Mom you're supposed to live not Mom said to me holding me close to her. I think you're supposed to let go with me darling besides you have your lawn, and true love by your side, he will protect you as much as he can. I can't protect you any more about the unicorns. I asked you take my unicorn darling maybe you can give it to your little girl if I have a little girl no never she'll never know but her grandmother if I did have a child when she wants to live with us

no, I can't. It's up to you to save our kingdom dear I can't you new husband, new family you become the new queen of sweet dreams. She said you're my only air left all the others are dead. You're the air now they also freed you from being tied to Alex so I thought about it for a moment being the only child now alive means that I'm an only child, that means even though I'm still a counterpart it means I'm still on the air to the throne I'm not restoring our old castle it's in ruins we're not rebuilding it no but you go and clean it up and clean up all those dead bodies Mom said get it all cleaned up and you'll get it ready for your new home your new adventure put ion there to take its place will have to clean it up. I said would have to clean out all the bodies and all the time all the rubble and stuff. Of course, Mom said putting me on the head it'll be a lot of work for you and your new friends. I still wish you were coming I want to, but there are too many bad memories for me I wanna start over, I wish I could do the same you could Mom said, but it's not your destiny. What do you mean?

I asked her what she meant about that. What do you mean? It's my destiny to restore our kingdom to restore it to normal I don't think it can be possible to bring everything back. He won't be able to bring back the people Mom said, but you'll be able to restore the buildings. You can take the animals too. She said the sheep and all the counting sheep. I forgot that you can have all of that stuff with you, but I will stay here in this empty house all alone, I'll be fine dear my time is done in the kingdom I retire wish you were young and you were still able you and your new family. I'll be the new royals of the dream ram. You'll be the new royal sweet dreams you'll be able to make new changes You might be able to fix, but your children could never marry the bogeyman family you could fix traditions you could change things I thought about it me and my new friends from another world, my new husband from another world we can get our freedom that way all right then I said that is my new mission, I said But I still have to defeat the bogeyman two who want to oppose us and he will give me his destiny to stop you know that you've divorced his destiny would probably be to kill you shivering at the thought asked mom, are you a native of the world of the dreams of the dream round I asked of sweet dreams. I know you're the core of the queen, but, what you need is there that way by?

why do you want to not go black deer? I am a native of the world of dreams. I was born here in the waking world. The only reason I became queen was because I married your father. He was the eldest of his clan so he was the air, I never got to tell you the story because your father didn't want you to know that you were half of the waking world and half of the world dreams I thought what your blood and your siblings' drops of blood are also connected to the world of the people of the wither awake the waking world, the world between do you have half of the dream round blood half of blood dream blood in you but then also half of the world of where we are at the awakening that's why we were able to do you and I were able to escape here we would be trapped in the dream realm if you if we were full pure-blooded, and we would've died I understood now and I'll be sharing that with my husband you'll have half as well which will also be a Lindsay end. Mother said give me a listen Dylan sans oh darling I'll be sharing this with him soon.

why are you sharing this with me now you're old enough to know she said you're old enough to know now you're not a child. Lily and you're the only survivor left that carries our bloodline I don't carry. All of. It is because I am not pure dream or pure. You're not Jordan a pure human you're both, that's why you're destined to be with another half or another house that's why you can't marry another dream person even if they are the bogeyman, your father, your father's grandfather's grandfather was the Sandman, he created the world of dreams. You have to find the Sandman.

I want to know more about my destiny about marriage not my destiny Yvonne in the Sandman I said I know about that I think but I need to know more about my heritage. What do you mean by another half?

OK, I will tell you I wish I could tell both of you at once, though Mother said maybe I should wait why I asked because dear any better if I told both of you both have a deeper destiny than what you had a few were been in Alencier, the wish. Had we cast for the two of you to be together and start new wishes just beginning of change or emails gonna enter this world and the two of you have to be ready for evil are you meeting the villains? Yes, the villains are here too.

besides, if I do return with you and help in the fight, I might be good. I think I can help with that but then I'll probably have to die anyway and I want to tell you before then that's one of the two if you had to take thrown, that's for the two of you had to take over, you to have a destiny together but I can only tell you later when we're alone that's why I had to tell you now now now, so you could've told me this sooner. No no, I cannot. tell you all of it as shivered for a moment, so that's why yes and the reason you were betrothed together. The two of you are powerful. Alex knows this to you want to destroy you both, but I will die and give up my life for the two of you a hug Mom I'm sorry it's not your fault dear but you're the last air you have to survive no turn on the happier topics can you get on the happier topics she said, happier, happy like well let's see the lessons first church service and the first dinner at our house after church I felt better now you're gonna have a great time

I went upstairs I had the ring in my hand I thought about what Mother said about my destiny. Our destiny I can't let the bogeyman take me cannot take me as his wife again. My destiny used to be with the one I love he protects me forever I love him, and he loves me too. I can feel it in me through the rest of my body as it courses through me. Love love is strong love is powerful connection is strong connection is powerful.

I went to my room and I got there and shut my door for a moment to seek to reflect nobody tinkled. After where he's touched me his lips, a touch of mine. My lips are still tingling I hunger for him. I don't know how I want him right now, we need to be separated for a bit, and to tell his family the good news about the engagement I knew that had to be. I hope they could take the news the same that's what I'm hoping for at least.

Ion

he walks in big smile on fit on his face as he comes with the picnic basket. I look so happy when it comes in a roll of dice, sparkling mother. He's a Luther size. He runs to her for a moment. It's been a while since I've seen you. Yes, it's been a long time, I didn't like being dead she said but the girl that wished she made brought us back to life how mother she's my counterpart oh, right I wanna sad course. When do we get to meet her? I mean I know we met her but I mean get to meet her. She's the girl you've been taking back with her right, he knows I haven't. I've gotten engaged to her engaged. I was hoping you may be Riley that this is better. I guess Mother was meant to be China's yes, of course of course of course.

she saved my life I would've been asleep still eternally asleep if she hadn't woke me and now I feel more alive is it why you have to be with her that's not just that we're protruding mother-sister days we were born to give me my your blessing are you and father let me have her I have to speak to your father at the top Julius she said softly you don't need to speak softly ass doesn't care oh, right I forget the two of you are grown now grown up both of you just forget I've been going on of your lies for so long I forget about how old you are if you're in love with this woman, then I give you blessing because I already asked her to marry me. She's engaged to me now.

And besides, I have to marry her, is to protect her bad people, or after her, her ex-husband she's divorced I don't know about this son's mother please do force her into this marriage with this man who was betrothed to him just like Hk she was Petrova me she had a merry him first because she didn't know where I was and your father made her Mary for peace but she's gotten a divorce so that she could be free of him And so that she can be with me I love her. I finally found a romantic partner he knows indeed I thought you would never be a romantic. I didn't either until I met her and now it's all coming together.

I'm just glad you found someone I guess I don't care where she came from. She was my counterpart's mother I didn't know I fell for her but I did and oh, and our mother and mother wanted to throw a party how do eyes light up with the words, party a party, and engagement party yes, yes definitely an engagement party. Her eyes lit up. I'm so excited. I don't know who is happy now yes definitely

but first, they want us to go to church with them and have a Sunday dinner. We and father with her and her mother who is her father Dad oh, Hannah said Dad yes he died at the destruction of their world their kingdom dead gone. 00 I am so so sorry but what is so special about her I want her to be a princess she's a princess of her world her kingdom you fell for a princess after all I'm just sad and it's not really that I'm happy that it's someone even if she wasn't a princess I'm glad you have someone you will understand you I guess so when she wants us to go to church with her first all of us not just you mom and dad I'm not just you, Dad and Ash but they want us to go to church with them and then go and then come back and eat dinner OK? All right will do that. Tell her that we will go.

all right, he said I will tell her that will come. Do you want me to bring stuff? Of course, I would love for you to have dinner at the house. How much Griffin egg sandwiches Mom that would be a treat. I want to note yes yes that sounds lovely. I'll bring that OK then I'll bring the Griffin egg sandwiches she said is there enough griffins for that of course not yet, but we have enough to make eggs to have egg sandwiches right OK then tell her we have a deal and a time please after the church service of course it would be a lunch. He nodded. Yes, lunch at the Dream Acres house all right then sounds great. Sounds wonderful and I am looking forward to it. I wanna smile. It is good to be alive again.

it also feels good to know that you are happy again and that you found someone to love and care for and for someone to love and care for you to son how to hug him he has his back all right do you want to tell Dad? No, I'll tell him I wanna set aside Do you probably want to go tell her mother that we agree and that we agree to come to the church service as well? All right then?

we will come if that's what's so important he nodded at her. Yes mother it would be very not polite. If we didn't show up as a family, she agreed. I tell her will be there as well. I won't off of ion back to the house.

Back to Lilly

there's a knock at my door I Videos knock on the door for you coming I said as I walked towards the doorway oh do you I said I saw him come inside I threw my arms around him. It's like you haven't seen me in a while I just saw you a few hours ago I teased, I just can't be without you I said back you kissed my cheeks and then my lips I wanted to see you too but that's not the whole reason I'm here. 00 then what's the whole reason? What's the reason why you're here why have you come?

My mother agreed that my father and I and Ash will be at church on Sunday. He said oh that you're going to come yes we will. I don't know if the others will come but I know my family will come for sure and I and mother said she'll come and do dinner as well and bring her famous griffin eggs sandwiches Sounds lovely. We didn't say she had to bring anything. She thought she had to text Mother for you. I don't know much about Helena so I don't know about her personality much I said you're gonna love her she'll love you and you love her she said she could be chatty though, understandable, I said chatty is good I guess sometimes

OK, then I'm gonna stay for a little while. I asked of course I'll stay for a bit. What is that smell Mother she's cooking then I'll stay. I'll stay for your supper then. OK, that sounds lovely. I've gotten used to your mother's cooking. She's a great cook too even though she hasn't been cooking much in a while. I mean we've been living here for a long time since 2012, but she just learned how to cook not too long ago, it took her a while to learn to cook properly because she's had servants do that for her. She likes that you can cook and she likes that you can cook for me. She says I'm in good hands when I marry you, he chuckles a bit laughs, and smiles. Laughter is in those violet eyes, your mother might not be the best cook, but she's a good one. She could learn from my mother's greed Ash also said that Mrs. Eldon is a great cook. Your mother could learn from her as well I noted the elders coming to know, brushes, ashes coming sibling ash here. I was excited to see the little boy a little child I'm not a little child is a teenager as a teenager, but still excited I practically jumped up and down. Do you think I should know how to behave in a church no we've never been to a church so we don't know how to behave.

how does one behave well, you have to be quiet with the preacher preaches I said, and we sing their hymnals so you can learn the hymns and that's about it and pray I said it isn't my thing, but I'll do it for you. He said, maybe I won't like it. I know your faith is most important to you. It is my faith that is very important to me. I said faith is what keeps us going. it's our faith that keeps us strong hugging me close he said well I believe in you best not the same kind of belief I said, believing in our Lord is different. You have to put him first before anything else I said our walk with him will keep us strong and give us strength and balance, do you understand peace and joy if you do I know that's what you need in your life. He nodded at me. Of course, I need that more than anything now I'm gonna be living in a new world I need to learn a lot. I'm eager to learn, that's a start, I said come I heard Mother's Day come and eat dinner is ready set down for dinner. It's good thank you Mom said I'm glad that you like it. I don't have a lot of foods you're used to but I know you've eaten dinner with me before I have been living here it's even better now he said he's learned to fix some of our dishes not all of them, but I have figured out a few things.

then it was over we went to the door I wish you could stay longer I want to stay, he said, but I must go. I want to respect you princess Lily gently turned me to him and locked his lips onto mine Millie dream maker I will make you mine eventually soon and I'll never have to leave your side again I know you're afraid to sleep at night I know it is the same nightmares and wake up when you're not there his warm arms wrapped around me I felt warm safe. I will make all that go away soon, precious I love you kissing me once more pulling me tightly. He walked out after letting go.

I went upstairs to my room after dinner, and I got changed and ready for bed. The shadows jumped on the walls Alex watching me was he watching to see what I would do what are you watching me kiss him I should've thought of Alex being here being in my room in my house. I need it to Mary Luther as soon as possible. Need to marry my true love as soon as possible. Anything bad happens he said he'll protect me and I believe him I took care of him for all these years. As his counterpart. Now it's his turn, I didn't think about it and yawned. I found it under the covers and got warm thinking about a sweet dream. I know that my world of dreams is gone, but that doesn't mean we still can't dream or could no dreams come without the dreamland without the dream room all there were nightmares.

and for me, it was the same nightmares every night. My horrid ex-husband would show up in my bedroom in my own house. Not at the palace Lily. He said my flower my petite come home come home and be with me. Oh shit my head now what is wrong with you Lily his hands touch my face his lips found mine Lily asked me, Lily. I want to fertilize she wants more. I want to make a child's room and your room a new flower to grow. I want to plant a seed in you I want to water it he said my body felt uncomfortable, no he won't get that chance we're divorced anyway and we can be married again I'm the man you're with, and come back to me abandon him to abandon him betray him to be my woman again I flinched and his touch. No no, but you're my wife princess. I'm coming back and I'm coming back to defeat you did I tell you that you're not allowed to come back with anyone but me and become my wife once again he said my beautiful wife, my precious little flower I want to pick you and then replant you and fertilize you in my garden

then, once with motion, he grabbed me, kissing me, tasting my tongue with his facing my lips with his tongue Lily you haven't even slept with your new man yet have you shook my head no, that's good. Once you do, you know, destroy my seed I know about the Timecrest Lily and I know about your love for him dump loser dumping never done loser do you not understand what I mean to him? Do you not know what I mean when I say Luther Timecrest? I said he means the world to me as my partner oh he's not petite. Do you do you speak French see, I speak Spanish to see and read because of saying yes, I say we meet you. He said I don't like hearing you speak those words to me no princess, my wife I'm not your wife I'm your ex-wife's wife I have returned your little soirée of a divorce. You can't remarry never marrying him will be a sin, you've committed adultery and you're claiming to be a Christian now you've committed adultery no I haven't you have I will give it to you. I am yours you are mine princess now we are good to go girl and strip for me.

no, I don't love you and I am not doing those things with you or for you I said my beloved will come for me is a nightmare. He said he won't come for you he won't rescue you you're mine and mine alone, so do what I say and be mine Princess Lily princess of the dream room, princess of sweet dreams you sweet my body chilled for a moment. If not, he said that I'm gonna have to poison you I should've got that means I might have to go onto one of those sleeping spells myself I thought I don't want to be with you my heart belongs to another fine then, grabbing me and re-dressing me back up actually, he didn't put me back in my normal clothes but in a princess dress, it was a white princess dress with pink trimming the service read in my hair. I will kiss you awake when it's time he said, I know how your spell went true love kiss. Can break a spell like this. Alex is not my true love I know this because if it was, I would've been able to wake Luther up. I am not no inside if you're not gonna, I am going to the real world to kill you and put you in a sleep-like state then I know a perfect way, do you think you can treat me I watch Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, and the other Princess movies I said I know true loves kiss. Breaks the spell. Yes, yes true love does break spells but you don't have true love. Do you only me and I am your true love he said, your Prince, charming, only a prince can break the spells you know

no true love first kiss or a true love kiss break spells I said, only in the touch of one's love lips will touch the spell of touch only true love slips of Cleven kissing can break a spell I said, only true love can break spells not just the lips of a prince you got the spells all wrong do you think you know everything don't you princess the first I do well it won't matter you'll be dead and less I kiss you awake you'll be mine. I will spell you to be mine I'll make you fall in love with me, he said, you can't change my heart I said no I will and I can princess I can't believe you're wearing his ring. Oh well it'll no longer be able to be on your finger soon enough I know it's another man's ring on your finger and I know you're gonna give yourself to another man.

you should give up on your dreams. There are no more dreams. The world of dreams is destroyed. This is a nightmare. Do you know that I shivered? I knew it was a nightmare. I knew my true love wasn't coming for me. He will wake up and I will be standing in your bedroom and I will have you I will have you eat this, showing me an apple one side darker than the other side of it. You will eat this apple can you fart do a deep sleep, a DEF, the sleeping death even more powerful than what your beloved was in, he will not be able to wake you because he doesn't love you back. Tears filled my eyes. No, he does love me I'll see what tests his love, Charlie.

Strong your love for Pinecrest is the test, how strong I love for a counterpart of Timecrest is he said awaken I will be waiting for you in your house. He said funny shivered. I woke setting before me was the bogeyman in my house. his dark eyes stared at mine. My aquamarine eyes blink back. I stepped back from him now princess don't be afraid of me and you won't be able to run out to go get him no no way I made it to where he can't get to you for a while loser darling loser all his name again ain't coming for you princess how come crying out for him? Is it gonna do you any good and you can't get to the castle that I on blocked your path he hit me like he done so much when we were married, he beat on me for a bit, oh yes meeting you I feel so good to beat you princess if you weren't in this beautiful dress I would be making love with you right now he said you know what maybe I should but I'll take the dress off so I don't tear it and then I'll put it back on you. I just want one more time, I want your body. No no that's all.

I thought I get my happily ever after you don't get one and that rain needs to come off that finger. No no, you're not this ring is mine it might be but it's gonna stay on that dresser. I want to have a turn with you princess I want to turn, Princess Lily, Luther I said his name again come for me save me precious he ain't coming your nightmares are real now before I put you under your sleeping spell forever I want you to notice me I might have to take you by force, then licking his lips, I need you I need to fertilize you please no no no that is all you can say no no my heart belongs to another your heart is mine or have you forgotten?

he put the apple down on the table for a moment before he fed it to me. I miss it I have my phone then I started kissing my lips, kissing my neck. My dress was on the floor, not torn he put it up and put it on the chair so he had to put it back on me after cleaning me up after this, of course, you had to stop kissing me to do that then the kissing and touching begin princess my wife I have the right to do this because you're my wife licking my lips. I want me to do this after I feed the apple it'll kill me I thought that maybe I should give him the other ones dead I thought in my head now taking me by the hand and leaving me on the bed his hands proud of my body beautiful I love angel my angel, my flower, my Lily I'm ready to fertilize you. He said you ready. I shook my head. No doesn't matter. I'm giving you everything and you're refusing me. He said you're such a little brat.

I guess I'm done when he says anything including me off and re-dressing me I guess your little Prince charming should be with you did you should be together then I wish I could put you both down and then you both can be dead but I want to see him try and wake you and be very comical because he doesn't love you he loves another. He doesn't love you princess he's using you it will see.

The apple was cut into the non-poison side for him and the poison side for me I wanted to give him one of the poison pieces so he could die but I wasn't able to do that because he was feeding me the poison pieces one by one wasn't enough to keep me dead, he gave me all the pieces of the poison side of the poison apple

I felt my head getting heavy, my eyelids dripping, and my eyes were closed. My blondish brown hair swooped around me as I found myself collapsed. He just left me there. Mother came in and was found dead. She put me up and put me in the bed. She wept my daughters, dead dead. I want the corporate deal with, it whisper told her that it was my true love that killed me, but she wouldn't believe that for a minute he would never kill her, but he would. He doesn't love her. No mother pushed away the thoughts of an evil voice in her head. it's you, Alex you're the one who poisoned my daughter, yes, he said appearing in front of her. I did poison her not until after I raped her. Of course, she's my wife, I can do whatever I want with her I want to kill her. I can kill her she's mine to do with what I please and she cheated on me. She was adulterous her soul went straight to hell that's for you Your Majesty, the last queen in the dream room in the last princess of the dream room will die, no she will die. He said I will kill you next, and you will not be so fortunate to be awakened. Your daughter could be her true love ain't gonna come for her that's for you. There is no true love to wake you, your Royal Highness.

you should've died when the kingdom died. Now you will suffer. Both of you will be dead I mean if she does come back to life if her true love does love her you'll miss your own daughter's wedding and probably even an engagement party. He won't be able to have that dinner party you were wanting and if you did, it would just be her. Oh, my dear.

but Alex didn't expect that he was being watched not by my love bye-bye his mother, Helena Hannah was watching her eyes cheering. Do you watch my raping as well and the poisoning and then no Helena said no no no no.

Don't do this oh I will and who are you? Oh no Your Majesty you must not be my daughter's Dad she said I'm dying too. I was poisoned so wishy by Alex. The poison I was given a slow it'll kill me slowly the poison my daughter took was heavy it was fast I wanna picked up my dead body and hold it in her arms. No what should I do? Listen, carefully take your daughter's body to your son, who cries his eyes out, said Helena Lay her in his arms. I don't know what to do. Then Serafina closed her eyes. No, we won't be having that dinner party she said, or the grits you could still have it if you'd like but it won't do a good there's a cure right here no cure, she said Oh cure I told my daughter that I probably won't be joining her but I would die. She knows that she didn't know how though said Serafina, the queen of the dream room sorry I won't get to see my daughter's wedding or anything. The queen closed her eyes. Her eyes were closed. Her voice was weak, I don't know wept. Have you never met the young queen of the queen? She never met her, but she felt a connection.

she went for her. She prepared her body for burial, but not for a funeral, not until her beloved Lily was brought back from the dead. Helena picked me up and carried me and helped me. I must do what she tells me she said camp comfortably she carried me out the door to Ion, and she figured out where his room was. What is this he said why are you waking me Mom then he saw me my eyes not opened gingerly. He touched my face. Tears fell dead, my love, dead, rocking me back and forth. I came in vain we all should've left. I wish I had never woken up. I'll say things like that, but it said Helena Deer, she held him as he wanted back and forth. Tears fell onto my face as he gradually touched it.

Who did this? He asked Helena. The queen told me. Alex did this to her and the queen. The queen is dead to Nana Street nodded her head. Yes, poison both poison. No cradle with me in his arms. No, I can't wait queen I can't wait for Lily's true love kiss. She gave me true. Loves kiss. Once now it's my turn Stroking my face before he touched my lips he touched me, kissed my face. I had my broken body to him. He felt all the bruises he held it, Alex, I will kill you he said for taking my love away I will make sure you die and suffer. You couldn't hear my wounds. They're just too many of them. Why did you let this happen? I didn't say Helena and her mother couldn't stop it either. I'm guessing he just snuck in and raped her holding me closer cradling mean his arms the boys are still on my lips, though lingering that we would both die clean her up first of course said Helena. I will clean her and then put her in a box if I am or not bring her back, but it will clean out all the poison at least not all of it but some of it was bad and my body was tasting it. I would've been a beautiful coffin but now.

once I was ready and cleaned up my body, headed back to him. He did his head to my lips the poison gone gently. He brushed them Helena held her, held her breath. Kiss me deeper looking down at me nothing do I not love her anymore then wait I stirred, the poison that was in me dissipated I was a weak Lily and I looked up. You did it I know you could. I know you could save me course my love I would not let you suffer Mother mother gone I said.

yes, your mother says now you have no family. Where's your ring in the house? I said I'll get it soon right now I need to get you cleaned up touching my body weeping as he touched my sores Kimberly this happens to you my princess raped like this, I cannot stand for that, I can't know that monster will pay for hurting you Lily I will not let him I'm not gonna let him take you like that again what if I wasn't your true love I wouldn't be able to bring you back because I love you I was able to bring you back let's kiss, I said max cause every time it works every time. I love you I love you too.

we won't be able to have that dinner party been wanting it was to go to church. I smiled. Sounds good too. Aside I understand why she told me she wouldn't make it to see us be together. We have to figure this out on our own now. no, we're not completely on our own. He said Mom is still here. Oh no, that's right circle at 10 the kiss worked as no longer poisoned. Now we were sure that we were each other's true love now I saved him. He sent me or even in that way true love kiss works and now we won't know our destiny. I know I told you she had she was going to tell me but now she can't we have to figure this out by ourselves. I'll do it. I'll do it with you. I will help us figure out what we are supposed to do.

but I was alive, and that's all that matters at the moment, and he took my hands and told me around the room. I had never been inside his room. I was like when I was laying in his bed at that one point after twirling me around, he sent me down, I will send the Torah to get your things he nodded. You no longer live inside that house. I will also instruct you to get your unicorns. I noted Leah and my mother's unicorn. She's now yours I said for now I'll pack your things and get the unicorns with them inside the stables, I nodded, and the other animals you have the dream cheap. Yes the dream sheep must stay here on this land until until win until after our ball and then we will go to your world will come from time to time to say this one I know there are things we need to do to save the world you live in I'm not yes I would be because the villains are here. I can sense them.

where he asked, I'm not sure, but I know they're here not here where we are, but there's somewhere in the world when I made the wish they end up here too. I couldn't keep them from not being here.

I know, he said it's not your fault. The worst brought our greatest villains and enemies here to the human world. I know your magic couldn't keep them out you're the most powerful counterpart in the world and not my head.

now what do I do? I asked Lily will figure this out and feed the villains soon but first, you need to rest let me take care of you you're still weak I'm not in my head I can't return to my house. I need to go back in there and get your things, you're gonna live an ion with me now I'll set up a room for you. I wish my mother could be saved. I guess I'll be queen now. I'll be queen of a kingdom that I'm not ready to roll until it's fixed. Will it be with you, you don't have to be alone, and are you ready for that kind of responsibility I asked I was the hero of Valencia Lily. I know that I'm not afraid I'm not afraid of taking over and ruining a kingdom. That's not mine these people Valencia will become our subjects and not it now, and I'm not letting that creep touch you ever again, he got to you because I wasn't there by your side. If I were there, he wouldn't have touched you and your mother was stupidly alive too.

but I'm not gonna let it happen again I'm not the strongest one stand for no reason he said, do you think your magic could even work in the human world I asked I haven't tried, but if I can, I'll break every bone in his body I have ultimate level spells you know I'm not I know that I could freeze time I'll freeze it and then I'll break his bones are hurting you they don't get away with hurting the person. I love my beautiful princess, so my beautiful counterpart was ruined, almost taken for me. If I hadn't kissed you you kissed me before I know I would still have our engagement party even though your mother won't be there for a formal party for us and on the other hand we will. We will do everything and then I'll set up a room for you inside ion. It will leave. Yes, we will leave this place. I'll make sure everything you have a paper packed including your animals, including the animals yes, your dream sheep, the unicorns any other animals you have left I will take Ion and fly away. Can I leave this quarantine zone just like that can I just leave get it be true I'll talk to the people in charge. He said you have no family. I am an adult. I know that but I told him that you're you and I are together we're not married, but we're engaged and we will go away somewhere we can hide out on an island somewhere for a bit until we can get to your dream room. We can start over there for a bit.

he meant it to the serious look in his eyes. Hey, Siri hi gave me a build a temporary town there is paradise on the island until we can get to your kingdom. It'll probably take several years maybe days I don't know I won't take that long to get there I said yes and wouldn't do that but it would take several days to rebuild your kingdom back to normal and clean up the mess and I don't know how we can live there and clean it up and I want to get rid of that evil van that evil bogeyman before we take over the kingdom and hugged him, my love, rest now to sleep I'll sit here with you I sent my mother to your house to get your things your room will be set up soon how to tighter you have his hands down my back why can't you take me to be yours now? Because because I want to be good to you, princess, I love you very much. Princess Lily, when his lips touched mine again tingling sensation filled my body, be kissed for about. I don't know a few hours, maybe a longer mirror in his room on his bed.

I'll stay with you until you fall asleep he said he's always warm I'm not even lying here and holding you. What if you fall asleep so what if I do? I'll sleep with you, but not in the way you think I'll lay here till you fall asleep. If I fall asleep then I fall asleep. He said I'm not leaving your side. You're mine and I'm not gonna let that dirt take you away from me, snuggled up to him. If all the tires looked Atlee longingly, there will be a day where I will take you. Will you be ready I'm not, you'll be my bride would be so beautiful. I will also be your queen I said I wouldn't have it any other way that you wouldn't be now my angel please rest.

Helena and Fatora brought my things in from my house from my bedroom. Also, all our animals were brought into the stables of a van, and my bedroom was set up to be normal just like my bedroom inside the house, everything all of my clothes, all of the things I wanted, what I would need even my mother's things were now mine they're inherited to me. I talked about making a funeral service for my mother. I agreed the last queen of the dream room the last queen of sweet dreams dead.

I didn't sleep in my new bedroom yet as it is, he taking a nap in his bed, which was comfortable and it's not like him to clean fresh smell. Is there a thin wind that fills my nostrils? He was even snuggled up next to me, his arms around my shoulders Ashli there around my waist.

how are you coming? Head was laid against his chest as he slept for a moment I know I just came out of a nightmare of sleep, but this time it was a dream I didn't wanna wake up he was sleeping with his eyes closed. I'm the luckiest woman alive. I thought Becky, was safe and protected. Will be leaving this place soon after a little party and I just say goodbye to my friends at church I will invite them to our engagement party after we tell the mayor of the quarantine town and I'll be leaving and no longer be part of this town.

but not tonight at least not for another few weeks. We had my mother's funeral to attend and then the engagement party right now he just let me sleep with him for a moment he even put a do not disturb sign on the door before we rested just in case people got any ideas of coming into our bedroom or his bedroom. It wasn't ours yet.

Can I wish it was but he respected my privacy even though I assured him that I was no longer version. I know that he said I know that.

I just wanna make sure you're safe you mean everything to me Princess Lily I smiled. Do you know you can just call me Lily I know he said wrapping his arms around me. I just like calling you that especially with that tiara on I can't I don't get to call Riley princess anymore so I wanted to call you princess you're my princess, I said on my bed OK OK yeah OK reset quietly for a little while all right you sleep what are you gonna do? I'm gonna try to get some rest too but I'm not leaving your room. I'm gonna put a bed on the floor and then will sleep right near you. OK anon good if you need me I'm just right here. I love you. a

good cause I don't want you to leave his mom back I'm not leaving he was not what I want to do right now. The party will be soon not today but a few days and I wanna make sure you're rested properly.

anyone else I asked, I want to make sure you're safe you're the most important person to me most important person that I can care about. I don't wanna lose you ever. I don't wanna lose you either. good cause you want. My life is so much better with you in it.

We settled in for the night checking on me one last time touching my face as my eyes closed sleep as long as he was near me. I felt safe as I slept I didn't leave my side, waking up slightly to see Ion and then closing my eyes again I was worried that the ground would be too hard for him to sleep on missing his warm bed.

A slash and cliffhanger maybe not but this is the end of this chapter the next chapter will be based be the party part of the engagement, the ball, and I hope you all enjoy this chapter, though I will get the next chapter up soon. Please check it out.
