Chapter My Two Wishes
'Do not watch the petals fall from the rose with sadness, know that, like life, things sometimes must fade, before they can bloom again. At the beach, life is different... Time doesn't move hour to hour but mood to moment... We live by the currents, plan by the tides and follow the sun....I may not be someone's first choice, but I'm a great choice. I may not be rich, but I'm valuable. I don't pretend to be someone I'm not, because I'm good at being me. I might not be proud of some of the things I've done in the past, but I'm proud of who I am today. I may not be perfect, but I don't need to be. Take me as I am or watch me as I walk away!'
0000 MY TWO WISHES ☐☐☐☐
Tamara gave out a short laugh.
"You don't know anything Rosa, in case you have forgotten, you are just a slave I helped in becoming the queen." Tamara said.
"That may be true, I am a slave you helped, agreed, but now my eyes are opened and I now know my left from right." Queen Rosa told Tamara.
"Rosa, don't bite the Fingers that feed you, Lolly will marry Jason and that's final." Tamara said with finality.
"Says who? You? Tamara, I have told you that I am not scared of you anymore. If my healer didn't come in time to save me, you would have left me dead, but the gods were by my side and allowed me to live." Rosa said and moved towards Tamara, standing right in front of the Priestess without any hint of fear. "I won't tell Roen what happened or tell him you were the cause of my illness, I can obey you on that part Tamara, but you this very one of Jason getting married to Lolly, I won't support you."
Tamara felt enraged, how could a slave she had picked and told her all her plans decided to backslide now? If only the unknown healer hasn't healed her, she won't have the guts to talk back at her.
"You have grown wings Rosa, we shall see who wins."
"Tamara, even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise, my time has come, I won't be that dumb Rosa you always control, this is my son life we are speaking here, he will marry whosoever he chooses to marry and Lolly won't be forced on him."
Tamara nodded her head.
"Perhaps the healer gave you the ability to speak to me without any fear again." Tamara said still nodding her head. "We shall see who wins."
With that being said, Tamara left with a huff going back to see King Roen still in his throne room.
"Did you examine her to check if truly the illness are gone for good?" King Roen asked once the Priestess stepped her foot inside the throne room.
"Yes I did and I believe the strange illness is gone completely." Tamara said with a forced smile.
Smiling in relief, "Thanks to the gods who showed me mercy." King Roen said praising the gods.
"Of course your majesty." Tamara said. "You said you wanted to discuss something with me."
"Yes I do." King Roen said and move towards his throne chair and pointed at an empty chair beside him. "Come sit with me Tamara, whatever I want to discuss with you can't be said while standing." Sited, she turn her gaze towards Roen. "What is it my king?"
"I asked Rae to come here yesterday night." King Roen began. "She said she didn't insult you."
"Of course she would lie."
"Not only that, she told me something which I want to confirm from you." Roen said.
"And what can that be?" She asked.
"Why are you checking on only the witches, I mean we have a lot of creatures living around us, and out of all of them, you choose to start from the top three best supernaturals, why is that Tamara?"
"It is the way the gods want it, they wanted me to know how powerful this generation will be." Tamara lied.
"Why did you not inform me about this? At least I would have sent a word around informing everyone of your coming."
"I am sorry it won't happen again."
"It had better not happen again, I hate to be left in the dark."
"Of course, what about Rae's punishment, will she still be punished for insulting me?"
"No she won't, though I apologise on her behalf."
Forcing back the smile to appear in her face, she could only nodded, because opening her mouth might result her saying things which she wasn't supposed to say.
"I shall take my leave now." She managed to say as she stood up from the chair.
"Okay great priestess of the gods." King Roen said. "And do not forget to leave the girl alone, I have talked to her and she will be on her best behavior." He added, he couldn't tell Tamara, that he, Rae and Jason had dinner together last night. Tamara could only nod her head and left the throne room.
A minute later, Roen also left the throne room walking towards his mate chamber.

Sarah gasped for breath when she lifted her head for air, her blue tail shinny like that of crystal from the little light from the morning sun through the window. She was under the water for close to an hour, it has been long she had done that. Seeing the early morning sun, Sarah remembered that today was another for school.
Removing some of her blue long hair out of her face, she whispered some words and blue tail was replaced with her human legs as she gets up from the bath tube.
Quickly wearing her clothes, blue jeans and top, she checked herself in the mirror on the wall of the bathroom, and quickly ponytail her hair. Looking at herself with pride, she knows she was beautiful, she was a very strong warrior in the Great Sea of Nile. Opening a little seashell, a blue light in a tiny ball started floating in mid air. She touches it with a finger and the blue ball shone alongside her blue eyes, what she just did was to enhance the spells in it since Jorkallun said he could sense a hidden spell in her. She opened her mouth a little bit wide and the tiny blue ball entered her mouth.
Once she swallowed it, her appearance changes to the shy timid Sarah everyone knows. Her blue eyeballs and hair were replaced with black.
Looking at herself once more on the mirror as the changes occurs, in this form, she was beautiful though not as beautiful as in her mermaid form.
Her father was a centaur creature, half human and horse, that was why she had told Rae earlier that she was a centaur creature.
Opening the door of the bathroom and letting herself out, she walked over to where her grandmother was sited in a rocking chair, sewing a torn cloth with needle.
She pecked the old lady on her cheeks, Sarah had made the old lady believed she was her granddaughter with a little help of magic.
"I am going to school now grandma." Sarah shouted behind her as she made her way out of the house.
She couldn't wait to see Rae today and of course her crush Jorkallun.

Tamara appeared outside her cave, her face was filled with the most angriest look no one has ever seen, she couldn't wait to summon her master and tell him what was going on. Rosa has the guts to talk back at her. Rae punishment will have to wait for now because Rosa has just taken her place.
It was as if the water man have read her mind because the next thing she knows, she saw the water man next to her.
"What is it Tamara, why is your face like that?" The water man asked.
Kneeling down and bowing her head, "Rosa has been healed my Lord." Tamara said.
"What? That's impossible." The water man bellowed in anger. Who could have healed her?
"I saw her with my eyes my Lord, she was Hale and hearty and even talk back at me."
"I still can't believe it, Rosa healed not by you, right?"
"No my Lord, I didn't cure her, someone else did."
"How can someone healed the sickness I placed on her?" The water man said in wonder. "Did they tell you who did it?"
"No my Lord, Rosa didn't see the face of the healer, the only person who knows the identity of the healer is Jason."

"Jason?" The water man asked to know if he heard right.
"Yes Jason, I asked him but he couldn't tell me who the healer was."
"It will be very difficult to get the information out of him." The water man said.
"Yes, you know he is immune to our powers."
"I know that Tamara, I am just thinking why I didn't know the child would become a tribrid, I only thought he would be born as a millennium wolf and we would use that position into making him believe he is destined to sacrifice the last mermaid." The water man said.
"We are going to find a way to break off his wings my Lord, my problem is Rosa, she plans on telling the king the truth, but I threatened her a little bit and that shut her up." Tamara told the water man.
"Good."
"We should kill her and get on with our plans my Lord." Tamara suggested.
"You just said she was healed by someone who is not you, right?"
"Yes my Lord."
"Then what makes you think we can be able to kill her?" The water man demanded as Tamara couldn't find a perfect answer for that. "So you see, we have to first of all find whoever that heal Rosa and the last mermaid and kill them at once, I feel my bones, he is coming."

The portal opened right in front of the school gate and Rae stepped out of it, she ignored the looks she was getting and entered the school compound. Wow, a lot of students came early.
She saw Sarah first who was heading towards her with a little smile on her face.
"Hello Rae." Sarah greeted shyly.
"Hello Sarah, how are you?" Rae asked as she flung her hands on Sarah's shoulders and they started walking into their history class.
"Hope you didn't cause any trouble yesterday?" Sarah asked.
"Nah, and even if I did, I can handle any problem that comes my way." Rae said with a bright smile.
"Yeah I know, you have already demonstrated that when you fought with the Amazon's." Sarah said with a smile.
Rae was about to say something when she got interrupted by the voice she was dying to hear since. She pauses in her tracks together with Sarah.
"Rae!" Jason shouted again drawing the attention of all the students including the teachers who have to peep through their Office door to see why Roen's son has called out Rae first.
It was as If the whole school was frozen as they all saw Jason walking towards the two girls.
If possible the trees stopped their swinging.
"Hello Rae." Jason said as soon as he was an arm length with Rae, ignoring Sarah totally.
"Hi Jason." Rae said smiling at him.
Jason return the smile with one of his own. They both stared at each other for sometime, both lost in each other's eyes before Sarah's fake throat clearing brought them back to the present.
"I came here to thank you for what you did." Jason said glaring at Sarah who backed off away immediately leaving both of them alone.
Even in her mermaid form, she was no match for Jason, everyone knows that.
Mr Jack who was among the few teachers who was peeping through their office started coughing out, he nearly fell off from his chair since he was using it as a supporting height to look at his two stubborn students. Did he heard right? Did Jason just thank Rae, as in Rae?

Returning his gaze once more on Rae he saw her looking at him with amusement.
"What?" Jason demanded.
"Nothing handsome boy, I was just thinking and I am not telling, so did it work?" Rae asked knowing why he was thanking her.
Smiling brightly, "Yeah it did work, thank you." Jason said, pretending as if he couldn't remember the wishes, he pretends he was leaving her presence. He was hoping she stops him and remind him of her wishes.
"You promised to do something for me if it works Out." Rae said as soon as she saw his back. Does he forgets things easily?
Hiding a smile as his gaze landed on Rae. "Oh, I totally forgot about it." He said. "Come with me to my class where we can discuss privately without the students eavesdropping on our conversations." He added as his eyes scanned the whole building. "Jack I can see you."
Mr Jack who was in haste to get out of the window fell down flat.
"Are you coming with me or not?" Jason asked.
"You haven't lead the way yet, how can I follow you blockhead." Rae teased.
"Oh no more fishhead, I am now blockhead." Jason said smirking.
"Yes, fishhead sounded old fashioned so I came up with blockhead." Raa responded with a matching smirked.
If the students were shocked before, they were now speechless as they saw Jason talking with the tone he had never used before even on Lolly.
"Whatever, your name still remains bonehead." Jason said walking towards the direction of his class.
Rae followed him.
Sarah wasn't surprised when she saw Jorkallun alone in the class when the rest of the students were staring at Jason and Rae.
She went over to sit. Why won't Jorkallun noticed her for once? She thought.
"Hello Sarah."
Sarah could feel her heart beating faster than before as she heard his voice. She turned her head to face Jorkallun.
"Hello Jorkallun, I have told you I am on the good side." Sarah said rolling her eyeballs, though her heart was beating much faster now.
Jorkallun smiled and Sarah find herself blushing.
Jorkallun was one of her reasons she was still here apart from Rae.
"I wasn't talking about that, I know you were saying the truth. I am glad you tighten the spells that is concealing your hidden identity." Jorkallun said with a smile as he regarded the beauty before him and stared into her eyes. Sarah couldn't remove her eyes from Jorkallun no matter how hard she tries, she was glad her crush was staring at her for the first time.
This would be the third time he was just seeing her face, and she looks breathtaking. Jorkallun thought, breaking off their eyes contact, he placed his head on his desk pretending to sleep.
Entering his class that looks almost like hers. She sat down on the only chair in the class.
"Hey that's my chair and I haven't ask you to sit yet." Jason said, though not in a angry manner.
"None of my business handsome boy." Rae responded with a roll of her eyeballs.
"So what are your wishes?" Jason asked immediately, he couldn't wait any more. He was dying to know her wishes.
"Well my two wishes are....."
