Sustaining the King's Life

COMPLETED. (WARNING: R18 on chapter 200+ onwards. This is a SLOW BURN ROMANCE. Read at your own risk.) ** On a secluded mountain situated upon a kingdom known as Feuersturm, resides a seemingly trifling cabin with an unlikely duo as its inhabitant—a witch, and her apprentice who presumably comes from a clan sought after by slave traders. Faustina is a sixteen-year-old girl who fled the slave market with the help of a sickly witch named Eula, who later on trained her as an apprentice for the span of seven years. Plagued with a mysterious disease for several years, Eula died despite the efforts Faustina had exerted to cure her; in her last breath, she left an odd request behind. "Sustain the king's life. This is your duty. Do not adhere to the prophecy." To which the odd plea shadowed a bizarre series of events, a consequential sentence; similar to that of a premonition. The same night the phrase was muttered, the chain of events followed: A warlock's intrusion to their home, with a peculiar yearning to resurrect Eula from the dead... and the king himself, asking for Faustina’s aid.

The birds chirped at the windowsill, as the curtains opened.

Slowly, the girl opened her eyes, only to see a maid opening the curtain walls.

"Oh, it seems you're awake, my lady."

The maid was familiar.

"Maddie…?"

The maid smiled, "yes, my lady?"

Faustina turned to the newly opened balcony door. It was a sunny morning.

"Nothing…" Faustina exclaimed.

"Today is your scheduled tea party with the noble ladies." Said Maddie as she began to dress Faustina.

"You know, Maddie," Faustina exclaimed, "it feels like I'm forgetting something."

Maddie was now decorating Faustina's black hair with beautiful purple ornaments and flowery designs.

"Something that's very important." Faustina said as she looked at her red eyes in the mirror.

"I'm sure you'll be able to remember it later, my lady." Maddie smiled kindly. "Come now. The marquis and his wife are waiting for you."
