《A Fool's Wish》Chapter 3 Page 2 - Explanation
Advertisement
Adara was terrified, she couldn't believe what she had just seen. Akilah who had been magic-less all her life had now suddenly woke up with one golden eye, a sign that she could now use magic. But what troubled Adara even more was the fact that she had only one golden eye, which she had learned from Akilah’s grandma Imala was a sign of a dark magic user.
Just then Akilah entered the room, now no longer dressed in her nightgown and with an eyepatch covering her left eye. Akilah saw Adara sitting at the table looking at her with concerned facial expression.
“I guess now is a better time than ever to tell you the truth sis” Akilah said as she walked towards Adara.
“The truth?” Adara asked puzzled.
“Yes you might not believe me, honestly I wouldn't too if I were you...” Akilah said as she pulled out a chair and sat across Adara.
“But promise me that you'll hear me out first before saying anything or dismissing me” Akilah continued.
Adara had no idea what Akilah was talking about, but she had also never seen her this resolute before. She took a deep breath “Okay, I'll hear you out, I promise”
Akilah started telling Adara everything that had happened to her. How a new king had taken the throne through immense bloodshed. To secure his position, he needed an heir and therefore he let out a message throughout the kingdom that he was looking for a wife.
The king had sent his men to personally find him most beautiful girls in the land and pick them as his candidates. That's when Adara had told Akilah to no go out and to stay inside as to not be seen by the king’s men. While trying to protect Akilah, Adara got herself noticed by the guard and she noticed them follow her home.

As soon as Adara got home she told Akilah to go and hide and not to come out no matter what she hears. Akilah was confused and asked why but Adara shut her down and pushed her in the bedroom, locking the door from the outside. Soon Akilah heard a loud knock on the front door, she saw through the window that men dressed in fancy armor; she assumed that they were the king’s men entering the house. She ran over to the door, holding her hear close to the door, but she couldn’t hear anything but mumbles.
After some while she heard the front door closing and ran back towards the window, watching Adara leaving with those men. Akilah now shocked and confused called her name after her but Adara didn't react as if her words didn't reach her; feeling more desperate she kicked and pushed the door, but with no avail.
The next day their neighbor Freya came by and opened the door. She sat down with Akilah and explained the whole situation. When Freya and Adara were out shopping yesterday they had noticed some soldiers following her. Fearing the worst Freya had offered to go home with Adara, but she had refused and instead told her to come and check up on her tomorrow. Which is what she had done. Freya went on to explain that Adara had been taken to the capital as a bridal candidate for the king, hearing this Akilah felt devastated she didn't know what to do. Freya told Akilah to come to her house while they tried to think things through, Akilah agreed, not wanting to live alone in the same house she once shared with Adara.
The bridal candidate test to see who the king chose started a few days after. By that time Akilah had with the help of Freya and her husband Cal’s contacts managed to get in contact with Adara. There were a lot of candidates from commoners to nobles, but just as Akilah had expected, Adara's unique beauty outshined all of them. Adara had immediately caught the king’s eye and with that she was set to become his wife. Although many nobles dreaded the idea of a commoner being crowned a queen, but none of them dared oppose the idea; and the wedding preparations had begun. This is when everything took a turn for the worse.

Perhaps. =====Summary Over===== Yo, if you are reading this then (like me) you like to read pretty much anything, including some guy's random rambles. Well you could read this story if you want but what's the fun in that really? I'm pretty much writing this (my first) story on a whim so it is certainly not perfect nor is it likely to be good (but what do I know maybe I'm secretly talented). It also might have tons of tons of errors beacuse I'm dumb and sometimes it's just so boring to proof read and you just wanna send a chapter out y'know. Regardless, whether this story brings you the most euphoric delight or illicits the most intense abhorrence I wanna know what you think and how I can improve, reader person, especially if you read this far! ( please reveiw or something)
