SCARS - CHAPTER 35&36
CHOLA EMPIRE ~ 12TH Hour
The soldiers dragged Alessia’s stive body out of the cold room. Her body was white like an iced fish.
It wasn’t the first time someone died in the cold room. Several people who committed crimes died there.
It was ruled that if after twelve hours the person survives the coldness then the person is free to live but over the years no soul ever came out alive from the cold room.
“Finally she’s dead” Adora smirked secretly.
Ampah was short of words,he stood there not knowing what next to do. His hatred for Adora doubled instantly.
“Cast her body to the river of no return” Queen Lazebel gave orders.
The soldiers dragged her body but something shockingly happened. A loud sneeze was heard and everyone remained mute.
“Who did that?” Charlotte asked racing her eyes around.
No one answered.
The sneeze came twice and it came from Alessia.
“Holy Mary!!” Queen Lazebel muttered.
“What the f_ck!!” Charlotte eyes were widened.
“She’s alive!” Ampah squealed happily.
“This can’t be,no one ever survives the coldness, she’s a ghost!!” Adora screamed.
“You can’t live Alessia,no way!! You’re a big thr_@t to my marriage” Adora spat out h@??fully.
Alessia eyes were filled with hatred,fierce and the urge to ki|| every soul but she was determined to control herself.
After some minutes of silence the Queen spoke.
“Release her” Queen Lazebel ordered.
“Mom?” Charlotte stood transfixed.
“Queen mother but…”
“It’s the law Adora,set her free” Queen Lazebel ordered and left the scene.

Adora’s Chamber
Adora sat on her bed crying out her eyes and blowing her catarrh into a handkerchief. Her eyes were red and her make up was ruined.
Charlotte came in and ran towards her.
“Our bride why are you crying?”
Adora increased her sniffing.
“It’s okay you can talk to me” Charlotte assured patting her back.
“Let’s eliminate that girl,I h@?? her and I want her dead by any means” Adora voiced out.
“It’s not gonna be easy cos I myself I’ve tried ki||ing her but something just spoils it. I think there’s a spirit protecting her” Charlotte said.
“I don’t care Charlotte,she must die before my wedding approaches” Adora fumed folding her fist.
“Then it’s done as far as we work together”
“Deal?”
“Deal” Charlotte replied with a handshake.

Wizards Coven
Corbin mounted on his throne reading some books. Yorkoo came in, his face wasn’t looking bright at all.
“Greetings father” He bowed his head.
“What is it Yorkoo?” Corbin asked with his eyes still glued to the book.
“Father it’s about your bride to be”
“What about her”
“Father you clearly swore that you’re never going to love any woman talk less of getting married. Thought I was the only one you loved?” Yorkoo fumed and Corbin looked at him.
“I can’t love you forever boy. Besides I still don’t h@?? you”
“Father you can’t marry her,no way!!” He yelled angrily and Corbin was wowed.
“Says who?” The voice of Pandora came next.
She walked into the scene with her black robe flowing behind her.
“Have you forgotten who you are before Corbin picked you? You aren’t even his legitimate son so you can’t make decisions for him, you get that?” Pandora enunciated hurting Yorkoo.
“Father you told her already? Is this how you want it now?”
“She just said the truth, you’re just an adoptee and I can decide to change my mind anytime without been questioned by anyone. she’s my bride and you must accord her some respect” Corbin said.
“Get lost little chick” Pandora growled.
Yorkoo sighed before leaving. He felt hurt from the words corbin spoke to him but he wouldn’t allow Pandora ruin his happiness.
*****
George was still driving,not to the hospital but somewhere else. He drove through a lonely road and halted. He came down and went over to the back seat to drag Fransisco out.
Fransisco was still unconscious when his father placed him by the side of the road.
He looked left and right to verify no one was watching him.
“Go to hell and die” George muttered before entering into his car and zooming off.

BENNEY’S MANSION
Mandy was in the kitchen trying to prepare dinner despite the weakness in her. Khole assisted her in silence.
Her phone rang and she picked it up.
“Hello honey, how’s Cisco” She spoke quickly.
“There’s a problem” George replied over the phone.
“What problem?”
“While driving along the way, a car blocked mine and armed men came out. They requested for Cisco and i had no say cause they were armed. They took him away” He said over the phone.
“Jesus!!” She exclaimed.
“Mom what did dad say?” Khole panicked.
“Have you reported this to the cops?”
“I’m on my way there. Please dear I’ll call you later” George ended the call.
Mandy threw herself on the floor and began crying.
“Some armed men kidnapped Cisco” Mandy said and Khole almost passed out.
“What did you just say?” Khole asked to confirm she heard rightly.
“Cisco my poor little baby” Mandy wailed.
Khole was numb for some minutes. Her legs were wobbly and her eyes became blur. She tripped and fainted.
Mandy rushed to her and gave a loud scream.
“Kholeeeeeeee”

Fenuku’s residence
Lisa helped Linda massage her face with a towel dipped in hot water.
“Arghh” Linda flinched at each touch.
“Sorry girl” Lisa said.
“You see what your son caused?” Linda fumed.
“He was trying to save me from the beast, I apologize on his behalf” Lisa said.
“Wh@??ver” She rolled her eyes.
“You’ve forgiven him right?”
“Yeah just for you”

Adam’s Chamber
Adams sat in his chambers meditating and saying some incantation. His eyes were tightly closed and his palm clutches together.
“Arghh save me!!”
“No please!!”
“I don’t want to die!!”
He saw blood allover the city, people were running helter skelter trying to save their lives. He could feel a dark power or rather say an evil power.
He saw a dark feminine silhouette and inquired to know more,he saw her face.
He opened his eyes immediately,the voices were echoing in his head and the bloody sight made him shiver.
“Pandora is back How? When? Why?” He asked randomly.
Just then a heavy thunderbolt occurred and rain started falling.

MUCH LOVE ❤️❤️
