Lili!

"There wasn't anyone who could have some kind of hatred towards your father outside the village?"

"I don't think so, it was a very isolated village. We rarely received visitors from outside"

"No use thinking about it now. Tell me if you remember anything"

Alexander seemed to care a little about Elane so she thought it would be good to keep her close and alive.

"Now, you two need some instructions to adjust to your new lives"

Jennifer clapped her hands and two maids appeared beside the door.

"Kelly, you will educate Elizabeth and Suzy will help Elane get used to the place"

The two pretty maids smiled and guided both girls outside. Elizabeth was sweating cold and Elane wasn't as scared as before.

Jennifer smiled as if reading Elizabeth's thoughts but didn't say anything.

After the two girls left, Jennifer changed clothes and went out of the room to the prison. She had a few plans in mind and the first one was to search where Alexander was.

She knew her mother would hide him somewhere and the prison was the first possibility. Maybe it would be smart to wait a few days but curiosity has always been her strongest weakness.

She needed to know more, and the feeling of going against her mother made her heart race. It was exciting and dangerous. The last time she was caught, her mother tortured her for two whole days.

Arriving at the prison, she saw the giant warden standing at the gates with his giant sword. It was a vampire giant, they were big but their senses were dull compared to a royal guard. It wasn't placed there to stop anyone too strong.

She swiftly sneaked in without alerting the giant.

She spent a lot of time looking into each individual cell, she didn't know where he was, and asking the warden wasn't a good idea.

When she reached the fourth floor, she still couldn't find him. She already looked into more than a thousand cells and she was getting tired.

"Where the hell did she put him?!"

"Put who?" A voice startled her from behind.

Jennifer looked behind in hurry, afraid she was caught.

"Isabella?! What the hell are you doing here?!" She calmed down after seeing it was only her older sister Isabella.

"I saw you sneaking into the prison and decided to follow"

"What? If you were following me at least say something!"

"I just did it... So, who are you looking for?"

"None of your business. Mother wouldn't like it if I told you"

"I won't tell her"

"I don't believe you"

"Then I will tell her you sneaked into the prison"

"See? You just proved my point"

"Come on... It was only one time and it was hundreds of years ago. Won't you forgive me already?"

"Never"

"Fine, but I'll still follow you"

Jennifer and Isabella walked together until the eleventh floor.

"I don't know what you're searching for but I don't think it's here"

"We still didn't cover even half of the prison"

"Yes but mother wouldn't hide someone or something somewhere so exposed like the prison"

"I know, but sometimes the better place to hide is where no one would expect. But don't worry, I already changed plans. I'm not looking for him anymore, I'm looking for something else"

"So it's a man? Why would you search for a man? That's disgusting"

"For the same reason mother hid him"

Jennifer stopped talking after realizing she gave too much information already. Isabella was gonna find out anyway, but she didn't want to make it too easy.

"Found it" Jennifer looked at an empty cell standing out in the middle of hundreds of occupied ones.

She entered the cell and started looking for something on the walls.

"It's just like always. Everything you do never makes sense"

"If you stopped looking at yourself in the mirror and used your brain a little, maybe you would understand"

Jennifer didn't take long to find a place where the wall was weak and punched it creating a hole in the wall.

Looking inside, she saw a long passage with a golden door at the end.

"Amazing, how did you even find the door?"

"I found it by accident a few years ago, but I didn't want to open it for nothing. I waited until I really needed it"

Jennifer reached for the door and opened it. Inside, the view was completely different from the dark prison. A clear white room with some paintings on the floors and a bed in the middle.

A little girl was sleeping peacefully on the bed while holding a stuffed toy.

They approached the little girl and gently shook her trying to wake her up.

"Lili, wake up" The little girl turned a few times but soon she woke up.

"Yay! Big sisters found me!" Still sleepy, she smiled beautifully while rubbing her eyes.

Lili got up and hugged her sisters. She was really happy

"What will you wish for this time?" The little girl asked her sisters and Jennifer answered.

"You will like it. It will make you explore a lot. I need you to find someone for me. He's a human, he's tall, has white hair, white eyes, and a tattoo on his left arm. Around 18 to 22 years old. Can you do it?"

"Hmmm... No there isn't anyone like that in the whole kingdom" Lili said while rubbing her head.

She could feel how many people were inside the kingdom and know some of their basic features.

'Mother took him out of the kingdom? No way, she definitely wants him close enough to drain his blood. Maybe the description is wrong?'

"Lili, remove the age I said"

"Okay" Lili searched again and she could feel Alexander. "There is one person like that"

"How old is he?"

"Eight years old"

"WHAT?! But is he tall like I said?"

"Yes"

"Is he trapped? Caged? Chained?"

"I don't know that much" Lili said while looking to the ground.

"Oh... Sorry, it's okay. Can you find him?"

"YES^^!" Lili left the room running and the moment her feet stepped out, she disappeared.

On the top of a large building, Lili appeared with sparkling eyes. She looked at the city, the sky, the clouds, and everything with curiosity.

She wanted to explore, buy cute clothes, pet cute animals, eat sweet food, and whatever she could before going back to her room...

But she couldn't.

"I have to do the wish" She stopped wasting time and focused on the wish.
