Introduction

Born in a world that frown upon halfbreeds she suffers in enchanted forest ruled by an evil witch who subjected her to be nothing but a servant that everyone walk on. After suffering for so many years the witch queen throws her out of the enchanted forest to the dangerous outside world. Evil is denser outside the enchanted forest, a girl with an appearance like hers is bound to be sold for perverted purposes but she is no ordinary halfbreed. Her magic powers are different from ordinary witches and as she is about to escape where she is confined she ends up being noticed by the ruthless leader of the most powerful pack and he ends up buying her. Her life changes as she is forced to go with him, that's where their journey begins. It is first filled with danger and hate towards the ruthless leader but as time goes on, she starts hating him less and he notices her more and they soon find themselves falling for each other.

Chapter 1

The darkness shouldn't be feared , I've never understood why people fear it. Even before something bad happened its existence would ignite hate, resentment and anguish. Some justify by saying they don't fear the darkness but what lies within, it's silly isn't it. People hide more in the light than in the darkness, horrible people always use the light in unimaginable ways than the darkness. Why am I speaking in such a way? Because for me darkness has felt warmer and safer since the day I was born, I've suffered more from people who are in the light. Saints! they call themselves, it's pathetic but at the same time amusing. Yes, amusing to see the ordinary easily fooled by those people. I have never been too surprised by how they are blindly followed and I never pitied the fools that allowed themselves to be fooled.

"Hail the queen!" Hundreds of voices shouted with emotion as pride welled up their chest. She was their queen, kind, caring , selfless, powerful and wise but I knew more layers than them. A monster disguised as a saint, her green hair flowed softly, her green eyes hid the dirtiest soul, a clear glass skin was truly a beautiful representation of nature. Serena, she is the strongest witch ever to exist, of course that is what we are told and what we must believe. Her green eyes scanned them all and there was satisfaction in their eyes, she enjoys drowning in their admiration.

"Every one of you has been working hard in many different ways and it is what I expected from you, from us. We are a race that takes pride in nature, magic and most importantly peace and unity. The wars of the outside world are not our problem as we have a superior goal, superior minds and superior powers. It should stay that way...it will stay that way" her words were filled with pride and the moment she mentioned the wars the atmosphere changed. I could see it, all of them looked down on the other races and it's quite naive of them to believe everything she says. None of them had stepped out of this enchanted forest yet they believe her words? Stupid and expected. Her speech continued and after she was done they clapped, some with tears in their eyes at how their perfect queen recognized their hard work. She says the same thing every month and always receives the same reaction.

The crowd dispersed after she left the platform and many avoided my way while casting disgusted glances. An everyday thing for me, I like it that way. Who would want to be liked by such gullible things like them, I also had arrogance. I had no plans of involving myself with people that I suspected had incomplete brains.

"Era! Why are just standing there! Or do you want me to give you punishment?" Said a sharp voice I recognized very well, I shook my head and the moment I did I immediately received a slap across my face. It made me stumble back a little " what! You refuse to answer me" I know this process too well, I tried to open my mouth then another slap followed. They weren't your typical lady-like slaps, they were hard and harsh. " Quickly go and do what you must do before I dirty myself even more" , " yes ma'am" I whispered making sure I do not meet her eyes.

My steps were hurried as I walked on the stoney path that led to a beautiful double storey house. I held no anger and resentment for what had happened, all my life I've been receiving this treatment. It is simply another day of it, it will be the same tomorrow and afterwards. It's all because of one person, the queen... She should've killed me or fed me to whatever monster she keeps under her bed but no it looked like she spared me but that is not true. She did it on purpose, my living conditions are her revenge to the person who betrayed her.

You see queen Serena was once young and naive but even then she loved nothing more than being admired, adored and envied. She feel in love with a man, a very handsome man who gave her all these things more than anybody else. This man was said to be one of the strongest and unique, sadly no matter how powerful a male could be in here he'd never rule and become king of the witches. This man wanted non of that but to be by her side- that's what she thought until he betrayed her.

That betrayal brought me into this world, it's the reason why I'm here but what was devastating was how it was with an outsider. The punishment was death and not an easy one at that... Not many know of this as it wasn't made public because they covered it up. Not that I care or anything like that, my situation is different when it came to magic. I'm part witch and part something that even to this day I'm unaware of. Everyone thinks I am just an empty thing with no magic within but if they knew how wrong they are. Of course the queen knows and it angers her even more, the hate she has for me is immense and unmeasurable...

" You will show no one you can do what you can do and for the rest of your life you'll be a servant...yes that's what you deserve" she didn't care to hide the disgust to my younger self " how dare you look at me as if I'm horrible... You deserve worse than being a servant but yet I'm kind to you...still you're not grateful!"...

She's a crazy woman that one and one day this paradise of hers will surely parish. Nothing lasts forever against time! I began to scrub the floor with equipments that was purposely made to make things harder for me. They're witches and know spells that can finish this in mere seconds but no, this is more fun for them. I do this everyday so it's stupid that I'll always find the floor this dirty like pigs were in her. They do it on purpos.

I heard the door open and two young girls walked in, they both had black hair and brown eyes. Even though their features weren't rare they're still beautiful and their skin is perfect. I guess those are one of the perks of being a witch. Their eyes scanned the house looking for anything I did wrong and hadn't done. Everyday I'm tasked with cleaning the entire house from top to bottom." You pathetic good for nothing freak!You're still scrubbing the floor!"," How are we supposed to walk!". While they focus on their magic, spells and potions and they're so bad at it it's sad.

Before I could open my mouth I tensed as I suddenly felt a stinging pain on my back.
