~White Coven Castle~ Underground Prison Facility.

Inside one of the rooms.

Azere and Olga were staring at each other due to hunger. A grumbling stomach due to hunger is very unpleasant to bear.

Azere looked the other way, she wants to lash out at Olga, wanting her to regret what she did. Because she lose her temper, they were hungry today. But even if she will scold her day and night, it's useless, they have nothing to eat and their situation will only get worst if they will have a verbal fight just because of what happened earlier. She just keeps her mouth shut.

Olga was thinking of drinking the water in the toilet, but just thinking about it make her want to vomit. The water there is not fit for drinking, she might suffer diarrhea after drinking the water. She just shut her eyes trying to block the hunger that is eating her inside.

She released a deep sigh, she truly regretted losing her temper when she faced the two women.

If only she can turn back time...

But it doesn't matter anymore, the damage has been done. She looked at her friend, she knows that Azere was mad at her. She's waiting for her scolding but she's trying to be calm even though she was also suffering right now. The two of them suffered hard because of her!

Shame on her!

A few minutes later.

They heard the sound of the opening where the food was placed.

'Food!'

Olga and Azere rushed to the opening and saw two glasses filled with water and two small brown objects that looks like brown marble candy.

Olga quickly picked up the wooden tray and the opening shut off again. She placed the tray in the bed and looked at Azere.

They picked up the brown object and put them in their mouth. They smiled at each other, the object tasted like honey and melted in their mouth. Then they drank the water.

Miraculously, their stomach was soothed and stopped grumbling a few seconds later.

"I wonder who sent these? Did that cruel woman know that we are given water and tiny candy that taste like honey?" Olga asked.

Azere pondered Olga's question for a few minutes. "I think these was sent by someone else. For what purpose I don't know," she said.

"Who else could it be?" Olga's brows knitted together in confusion.

"Or maybe, that little brown object and water we eat today is poisoned and we will die later," Azere joked.

Olga's eyes widened in shock. "What-? Stop making cruel jokes!" she said, glaring at her friend.

Finding the expression on Olga's face hilarious, Azere erupted in peals of laughter that lasted for a few minutes.

Olga continues glaring at her. "Stop joking, I'm not in the mood for jokes right now!" she snapped at her.

Azere can't stop laughing and face the wall instead. Her laughter is contagious.

Olga began laughing as well. Somehow the laughter helped lessen the tense knot on her stomach. "Yeah, if it's poison... then we will die together... not a lonely way to die...isn't it?" she stated casually.

Grinning, Azere looked at her and replied. "Absolutely!"

The two women continue comforting each other through laughter, the only thing that works when nothing else works.

A few minutes later, the laughter on their lips died replaced with comfortable silence.

Olga spoke, "I wonder if we will receive another honey tasting candy again?" she asked. "It's better than nothing to eat at all. My stomach stop grumbling after eating that sweet tasting tiny food. I wonder what it's made of?" she asked.

"It's made of the intestine of insects and coated with honey and flour, then cooked and made into a candy," Azere replied.

Olga's eyes widened in horror. "Whatttt-? Insect? Ewwww!" she said, her face contorted into a grimace.

Azere went laughing again due to Olga's comical face.

Their merry laughter vibrated around the room.

Meanwhile...

In one of the rooms of the castle.

A guy was making candy balls and putting them on the plate. He looked at his assistant. "Did the candies reached the ladies?" he asked.

"Yes, Sir! I bribed the guard so that the candies can reached the ladies in time," the assistant replied.

A satisfied smirk appeared on the guy's lips. "Continue giving them my candy balls until their punishment is over. Then continue updating me on what's happening inside the prison facility underground. I want to be updated with every single thing that's going to happen to the ladies every time they were taken out of their rooms!" he ordered.

"Noted, Sir!" the assistant replied with a nod of his head.

"You may leave the room," the guy said and continue making candy balls.

"Aye, Sir!" The assistant left the room in silence.

Hours went by.

Another mealtime has arrived for the prisoners underground.

This time...

When the sound of the opening reached the women's ears, they rushed towards it and saw the same thing... two glasses filled with water and four brown candies in a small bowl.

Azere picked up the wooden tray and the opening shut off again.

The ladies went to bed, picked up the candy balls, and devoured them in one go, then they drink the glass of water.

Olga looked at Azere. "You know what? I noticed something about the candy balls... it's soft and melted directly in my mouth and it made me my stomach full for a several hours. Whoever made these amazing thing is a genius..." she observed.

Azere nodded her head in agreement. "Yeah, you are right. I'm just wondering though... is this person our enemy or our friend?" she asked in bewilderment.

Olga shrugged. "Who cares? As long we continue to live another day, and we will survive this ordeal then all is good. As for the person who made this... we will just have to thank that person if we have a chance to meet him or her..." she said.

"Agree... It's useless trying to guess the identity of this mysterious person because we can't ask the staff to reveal what we want to know even if we start asking them question. I guess this mysterious person will appear on the right time," Azere stated.

Olga gave Azere a thumb up, agreeing to her statement. She lay in bed. "I'm going to rest for a while and dream of roasted chicken and one platter of rice," she said cheekily.

Azere smiled in amusement and closed her eyes, dreaming of the same thing.

...

Back at the cave.

The couple was at the entrance of the cave, enjoying each other's presence.

Rhett looked at his ladylove. "My love... do you want to eat apple?" he asked.

Sabrina nodded her head. "Yeah. But no need to find the apple tree in this vast wilderness just to give me what I want. I only answer your question, but I'm not implying that you have to give me one. Okay?"

Rhett smiled. "Got it," he replied. "Where is your pet rabbit?" he asked after not seeing the cute furry animal beside his girlfriend.

"I put the rabbit in Amara's chamber. That will be her place if I'm not in the mood to pet her. I just want you and I to spend some time alone. Just you and I," Sabrina said.

Rhett chuckled. "I thought you're going to spend more time with your pet than me?" he said, caressing her arms lovingly.

Sabrina smiled and looked at him adoringly. "Don't be jealous at the rabbit, it's just a cute animal. No one can take your place in my heart and mind," she said.

The couple gazed at each other lovingly.

A few minutes later, there was movement near the woods and the couple noticed it.

Then a guy emerged from the woods, waving his hand at them.

Sabrina smiled. "Oh, it's your older brother, Edmund!" she exclaimed.

Rhett's brows furrowed. Why did his brother visit them all of a sudden?

A few moments later.

Edmund finally reached the entrance of the cave

Rhett looked at Sabrina. "I'll talk to my brother outside, will you be okay here?" he asked.

Sabrina nodded her head. "Yeah, go on..."

Edmund smiled at Sabrina and conveyed his greetings. "Hi... sister-in-law!"

"Hello, Edmund! Nice to see you again!" Sabrina replied.

Rhett left the cave.

The men went under the shade of the maple tree and engaged in a conversation.

"Bro, why did you come here all of a sudden? Did something happen way back home?" Rhett asked worriedly.

Edmund shook his head. "No. Nothing to worry about home. Everyone is doing fine there. I'm here to visit my Luna, where is Amara? I haven't seen her at the entrance of the cave? Was she inside her chamber? Can I talk to her for a few minutes?"

Rhett scratched his head and released a deep sigh. "I'm sorry, bro... Amara is no longer with us in the cave. She left and vanished without a trace," he replied sadly.

A grim expression emerged on Edmund's face. "But why? Where is she? Did she leave on her own? How did it happen? I thought she was also cursed just like Sabrina and she can't leave the cave. How come she's gone?" He bombarded his brother with questions.

"Sabrina discovered one afternoon that Amara was no longer in her room. I checked the whole cave inside and out, even the neighboring areas, hoping I can find her, but I failed... She completely disappeared. I guess she wanted to leave the cave without saying goodbye to us, and she did just that..." Rhett explained.

A profound sadness marred Edmund's face. "Where I can find her?" he asked.

"Amara once told Sabrina that she lives in Loodella Village. But I'm doubting if that village is real because I never heard of it," Rhett said.

Edmund sighed deeply. "Alright then, I will not stay any longer. I will try to investigate if anyone in our tribe heard anything about Loodella Village," he stated.

"Good luck, brother!" Rhett spoke.

"Bye, bro!" Edmund responded. He was about to wave goodbye to his sister-in-law, but she was no longer at the entrance of the cave. He nods at his brother and walks away from the area with a slumped shoulder.

Rhett watched his brother disappear in the woods.

A few moments later.

Sighing, Rhett returned to the cave.
