hatred

"She is not my sister and she never will be."

At that moment everyone was so startled by Agatha's words. These words struck Euphoria into her heart like a knife and tore up into pieces.

It was indeed a very sad moment for Euphoria, she was disheartened by what her sister said and shocked at the same time...

While Euphoria was on the verge of crying. Someone said something that diverted everyone's mind and that was

"Ah, Honey you arrived earlier than expected. Is everything all right and was your trip overwhelming?"

This voice was so soft and modulated but it was coming from the veranda.

Then a woman came out of her bedroom and greeted the Marquess.

It was the Marchioness she was hiding her face with a round fan. She was in a very happy and cheerful mood today.

She asked Agatha to be going for her etiquette as she was late and to make Euphoria a little better as it was the first time she was out of her room. She saw two of her Ladies in waiting.

She asked them in a polite and humorous way

"Can you take the young mistress far from here, It has been so long to see the young mistress grow so quickly."

"As if it was yesterday that she was a child now she has grown up into a fine woman."

"Sorry dear if my daughter's word's hurt you please don't mind it. After all, she's your younger sister."

These words made Euphoria disheartened a lot more than before. But as her mother said she was her sister she couldn't possibly hurt her sister.

She said to her mother with a forced smile and courtesy,

"Mother you are right, Why should I be angry at my younger sister for those words, I just came to greet father that's all."

"Now I have finished my work I shall head upstairs and study."

As soon as she turned the marquess stopped her.

"Euphoria! Wait you shall not be allowed to go the room right now, I wish to see you in your room."

"I ask you to come to my chamber right after dinner and I must see you in the dining hall for dinner."

This startled the whole household and the marquess asked the kitchen to serve four sets.

But this sudden request made Euphoria uncomfortable. But before she could say a few words the marquees went to his room.

After seeing her father return to his chamber she went to her room with her ladies in waiting.

As soon as she reached her bedroom she asked her two ladies to prepare a bath and a few clothes and jewellery that would match the occasion.

While her ladies in waiting were engaged in their work she saw a bird outside the window which was somewhat like a Malachite kingfisher, But with a strong aura.

While everyone was doing some work she took the kingfisher into her hands and while she was observing she saw that it was hurt and was bleeding terribly.

As she saw his injuries she whispered

"How did you get these injuries."

He was a little slobbish but feverish also. Nonetheless, she tends to the injuries as soon as possible.

After all the work was done and Euphoria wounded him and fed him he flew away by the same window he arrived.

Euphoria was happy to see that bird went away safely but she was worried that it doesn't leave a scar. She was happy and anxious about the bird.

But her worries passed away when she was called by the ladies.

She asked Cierra to give her a beautiful massage so that she doesn't feel restless and could relax.

Cierra was a Barron daughter she was slightly younger than Euphoria. She was nice and kind. But due to her father's gambling addiction, they lost everything. But she was happy though she went t harsh times. But she received Euphoria's letter. Which gave her hope.

Now she lives happily with her friend and her master.

Cierra answer's with a smile and warmth in her sentence

"Please be rest assured I shall make you the beautiful woman today."

It indeed made Europhia laugh but at the same time, she was much more overwhelmed by her words.

Soon after she took a bath, She saw her bracelet in her hands.

She was restricted to remove the bracelet under any circumstances from her hands or else she will create trouble.

After that moment she never had the dare to open this bracelet. But after her bath, while she was taken to her room where she saw another lady in waiting her name was Rita.

She was the colonel's second daughter. She was a flattering and kind-hearted person with lots of passion. She wanted to become a lady-in-waiting of Euphoria since childhood without any reason.

Riya took the dress for Euphoria which was plain, simple but charismatic.

After she did her hair and makeup, She went downstairs for dinner.

She was anxious but at the same time, she was happy because it was her first time sitting in the dining hall after 20 years.

She was walking according to her etiquette and greeted her parents. But except for her father, no one else liked her presence.

She sat on the chair which was near her father and started the talk in a cheerful mood.

While talking to liven the moment the marquees made a toast to Euphoria for her first time in the dining hall.

But Euphoria was not comfortable because she was an introvert and she hasn't been out of her room for 20 years.

Also when everyone was drinking wine she asked the kitchen to give her a glass of fruit bear instead of wine because she was not used to it.

Also for her wine was terrible in taste.

As Euphoria's name was taken out from the mouth of her father the hall suddenly became gloomy.

Then Agatha said something pleasant to her sister and apologise to her sister.

"I am extremely sorry Sister it was a lack of negligence and ill of me to speak low of you please forgive this girl I am in a phase where people like me study."

She said that word politely to make her father think highly of her but she had no intention of letting her sister off so easily.

These word's made Euphoria so happy and she told her sister

"It's okay Agatha everyone makes mistakes in his or her life."

I believe you may do better than this and never make mistakes that cause pain to other people."

This made marchioness show off and saw some prideful word's

"Darling see how good our kids have grown I believe they will make a future so well because they are passionate and ambitious."

"Well indeed you are right It looks like I was mistaken that my kids are not on good terms but my worries are worth less."

The marquees said that word out of pleasure and relief.

After this, the conversation was awkward as everyone was silent.

For Euphoria it was more like a silent treatment was given.

Then the marquees said that Euphoria should go to school and have a degree or else her talent would be a waste.

But Agatha didn't agree with what her father said

Agatha was jealous of her sister since childhood she was good at everything the reason for Euphoria to be locked inside the room was Agatha.

She said no because she didn't want her pride and joy to vanish after she comes.

But marquees had made his words loud and clear and also he was determined.

Also, the marquess said the same to her husband but he ignored it and asked her t start next week onward's.

But Euphoria was not at all happy to go on a new adventure she asked her father to reconsider his decision.

Before she could say anything her father reminded her to go upstairs.

After eating her dinner she followed her father upstairs and as soon as she reached the chamber and was going inside.

Someone stopped her by saying,

" Euphoria! Don't you dare open the door, you ungrateful girl."

It startled Euphoria for a minute and she turned her face around to see who cried.

As soon as she moved she was horrified and devastated because Agatha was there who said those words in anger.

Agatha cried

"Weren't you happy enough to get to stay eat and wear clothes?"

"Just why on earth are you here and you got our family."

When Euphoria heard those words she answered her sister

"Agatha this is not what you should speak to your elder sister. You are a person who has everything why are so tempted with me? Did I do something wrong?"

Agatha was so angry that she said

" If you want me happy then say no to school or else I will sweep your graveyard on your death anniversary."

Euphoria said

" Well that is not in my hand but I will try my best you should go to sleep you have to go to your academy for your wizarding lesson."

Agatha ignored Euphoria's words instead she said something frightening

" Do as I say, You don't have to worry about me if you want to be a good sister do what I want."

Euphoria became enraged and said

" No, I won't you have changed Agatha you are no one to control my life if you want me to decline the offer then say it politely."

Agatha was tempted

She said

" Oh, really that scared me I will call mommy...…. Who are you kidding sis I am a Witch and if I want something I will get it to any extent."

Euphoria remembered that she is an excellent witch who is equally dangerous and knowledge full. But she was not scared by her threat.

"Be my guest! I am not someone to back off also if you are guided in the wrong direction it is a sister's duty to take you on the right path."

But this challenged Agatha and she cast her spell that was " toiuyilous"

And that spell could torture anyone to death.

As Agatha started to chant the word her eyes were glowing and the room was bright.

She chanted her words the magic went straight to Euphoria

Euphoria started to scream with terror and fright

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
