Revelation

Father Beocca was a little embarrassed. He smoothen his crumpled collar and said, "Are you done Lady Melanie?"

Melanie stare at the Father and look up to the man behind him. "Of course I did. It's a relief," Melanie remarked.

"I pray the most holy Father accept your prayers," Father Beocca prayed and did the trinity sign.

"Amen"

Lord Nathan didn't mind the priest as he gaze at the Lady. In Norfolk, vampires were the major population of the land with few poor humans.

He also learnt that Livingston housed a great number of humans unlike other kingdoms.

"I request to meet sister Ursula," Melanie said when the priest was about to leave.

"Okay. Wait here while I fetch her," Father Beocca replied and glared at Nathan, "and also you, Lord," he remarked with a frown on his face.

The priest scratch his bald head as he thought about the Lords. They were the worst set of vampires that often visit the church especially the Lord of Livingston.

Nathan bowed at Melanie and she's reciprocated the greeting, "Good morning, I heard the priest called you Lord," Melanie said.

"Yes, he did. I'm Nathan Craig, that Lord of Norfolk kingdom," Nathan said proudly.

Melanie was surprised he was a Lord and an arrogant one." Please to meet you, MiLord," said Melanie.

Nathan smiled and pushed his hair backwards, " the pleasure is mine," Nathan replied impulsively as he continued to stare at the girl.

He couldn't help but say," you're beautiful Milady. "

Melanie smiled "Same to you, Lord Nathan of Norfolk," she replied formally.

" I have heard Norfolk is a beautiful kingdom, a land filled with flowers. People call it, the flower land, " Melanie said and look at the man.

"Very, Milady. Would you like to visit Norfolk? Milady," Nathan said with dreamy eyes.

Melanie laughed a little. She wasn't allowed to leave freely on her own not to speak of visiting the next kingdom.

" I would love to but certainly not now. I'll send my greetings in the future when I visit. See you some other time Lord Nathan," Melanie said when she sighted the priest.

"For such a kind lady, Norfolk will always receive you and my palace will always be open for you. Do reach me in the future," Nathan said and grinned at her.

Melanie smiled and bowed before walking towards the Sister. The man is not as bad as she earlier thought.

.

Sister Ursula reach Melanie and held her hand, " the Priest said you wish to see me, " the church woman said.

" Yes and perhaps, in private," Sister Ursula nodded and they both walk away from there.

Father Beocca saw the expression on the Lord's face wasn't bad like when he left few minutes ago." Lord Nathan, the goods are ready and packed into your carriage," he said patiently.

" Good! Now let's go out and see this for ourselves, right Father Beocca?" Nathan grinned wickedly.

"Yes... Yes." Father Beocca stuttered. Actually, the chemical properties added to this product have better and faster effects than the old ones. He had sold this same product to his Lord, Darrick and the young master Draven.

But this Lord refused to believe him.

He also got a hard time in convincing Lord Darrick who treated him like a piece of rag and he was severely bad-mouthed by the damn second prince.

Nathan saw the carriage the church have prepared for the goods. Reaching it, he opened the door and saw five large trunk arranged neatly.

He gestured for the coachman, "open the damned trunk," Nathan said impatiently.

The truck were opened and lots of bullets were neatly packed inside them.

Nathan's eyes twinkled in realization, " I see," he commented.

It was different from the normal silver bullets, it was brownish gold in colour and contained many chemical properties.

" Now I believe you Father Beocca, as you wish," Nathan said and dropped a large pouch on the priest's palm.

Father Beocca smiled," I'm always truthful MiLord, it's you who do not see truth in what I say. Have a good day," he said and went back inside the church.

"Those things you see are not imaginations my dear. They are what will take place in the future," Sister Ursula said to Melanie.

Melanie's thinking felt complicated now. " What am I supposed to do?" She didn't want to loose any of her family members and friends.

Sister Ursula smiled. She's a powerful white witch that was assigned live in the church for the sake of the townspeople. To help them in performing rituals and rites.

"Melanie you have a gift. A gift that needs a clear mind and pure heart, you should use it wisely," said Sister Ursula.

Melanie answered by nodding her head. Then she look at the Sister and saw the colours of her eyes were now white including the pupils.

She gasp and almost stood up from where she was sitting.

"Don't be scared child, sit," Sister Ursula convinced the scared girl. Melanie slowly relaxed her nerves and sat on the bench.

"I smell the Lord," Sister Ursula said and looked at the girl.

Melanie was confused, "I don't understand?"

"Lord Darrick.... You should stay away from him. He isn't as good as he seems to portray. He's the danger that awaits you," the Sister said and her eyes went back to it normal colours.

She stood up and smiled at Melanie, "I hope you kill that affection that's is germinating inside you. Stay away from him. Be warned!" Sister Ursula said and walked away.

Melanie was dumbfounded at the revelation. What's the meaning of it all, she wants to know and understand the underlying meaning of what the witch said.

"Wait, please. I don't understand, explain to me," Melanie pleaded in fear.

The Sister halted "You can only see me ones in a week." And walked away from Melanie's sight.

Melanie sat on the bench for a long time. She wasn't able to think straight, if it was any one who told her this she wouldn't believe but this Sister Ursula is the highest white witch in the church.
