Tragedy Strikes At James's Castle - Chapter Fifty Nine


The fireplace shot flames out, causing the room to catch on fire. It didn't take long for the flames to spread through the room.

The servants were doing their choirs when this happened. The flames blocked the path to the door, leaving them trapped. With no way out, everyone began to scream out for help in hopes someone would hear them.

The others only a few rooms down heard the explosion and their cries for help. They ran down the hallway to see flames and smoke coming from the door.

Mark went to open the door when flames shot from under the door burning his hands. While rest ran down the hall to get some water to put out the flames in hopes of saving the ones that were trapped.

As the fire spread through the room, a small explosion of flames shot out towards them. They put their hands up the shield their faces from the flames.

As they moved away from the flames, another explosion sent Lady Kristi running with pain from the heat and flames.

"You're on fire!" Steve shouted to Lady Kristi.

She turned to try to put the flames out that engulfed her dress; the rest began to panic. Steve tried to help her, but the fire was too out of control. 

The tapestry and the rugs went up in flames, fast separating them from Lady Kristi that was struggling with trying to put out her dress that was now engulfed with the flames.

Lady Kristi falls to the floor from the pain of her skin on fire. Her screams were so horrible, the others couldn't do anything to save her. They had to look away from the site of her dying. After a few minutes, she stopped and laid lifeless on the floor, still on fire.

Now the room was almost completely engulfed with the fire. Realizing that no one could help them in time, they tried to keep away from the flames as long as they could. This left them trapped in the corner of the room.

Smoke and the intense heat became too much. Lady Ann, Flo, and Steve all struggled to breathe as the smoke-filled their lungs.

One by one, they all collapsed to the floor and laid lifeless on the floor.

The flames were finally put out, and the rest was able to finally get to them. Sara bent down to check them to see if they were still alive. She checked each of them only to confirm that they all died. She noticed a pile of ash near the main part of the fire. As she looked closer, she realized it was what was left of Lady Kristi when she saw her ring.

They were buried beside each other in a small graveyard not far from the castle. They engraved their stones with their names. Lady Kristi, Flo, Steve, and Lady Ann.

Everyone attended their burial. To pay their respects.

Daniel Gets A New Family - Chapter Fifty Eight

Now with Julia dead, she had the task of setting up for him to receive a new home. She knew the perfect couple and sent word to them. Now all she had to do was wait for them to respond. In the meantime, she enjoyed having Daniel around. She knew she was going to miss him when he left the castle.

Kristen's lady found her when she got the news back from the couple. "I have good news, my queen. The couple that's perfect for Daniel is willing to accept and raise him as their own," she told Kristen. "That's good, send for them to come here; I want to meet them and make the final decision," she instructed her.

She was summoned to get Daniel ready in case Kristen was to decide to let them have Daniel. She waited with him in the kitchen for the news.

Kristen meets the Newman family in the throne room. "I see that you're interested in taking Daniel in as your own?" she asked the lady. "Yes, we have tried for many years to have a child of our own and have had no success. I want a child to raise; I would love to raise him as my own. He would have a happy home and parents that would love him." she told Kristen.

Kristen summoned to have Daniel brought in. "I have heard good things about you and your husband. I will grant you this, but keep this in mind! You will be kind to him, and if I hear of anything bad becoming of this child, you will be punished. I do care for this child, but he's not my grandchild, so treat him well." she warned them both.

"We will take really good care of him. You can visit him anytime, and we will bring him here when you request it. I know you would like to see him from time to time." she told Kristen. "I would really like that," she replied.

Kristen then handed Daniel to her. She cuddled him up in her arms. He didn't seem to mind at all.

Daniel looked up at her and the man standing smiling at him. He smiled at both of them. "Little Daniel, I'm your new mommy, and this is your new daddy. We're going to take you to your new home.

Julia And Isabel Are Put To Death - Chapter Fifty Seven

The day Isabel and Julia had dreaded had finally come. The iron door slid open, and a guard walked in. The executioner, dressed in a black cloak that hid his face, stood at the door. 

Isabel grabbed Julia's hand when the guard came closer. "It's time," he told them. Julia's heart sank, and she began to tremble with fear. She knew what was about to happen. She watched them execute Derick. "Please, no, will the queen not spare us. I beg Her Majesty for forgiveness," Julia cried. "It's ok, my dear child. We knew this day was coming. I'll be with you no matter what happens, we will be together," Isabell said as she griped her hand tight. 

Julia rubbed the tears from her eyes as she walked out of the cell. The guards escorted them out of the dungeon. Isabel followed Julia as she controlled the fear she was trying to hide from her daughter. 

The guards escorted Julia and her mother to the scaffold. As soon as Julia saw it, she began to come to tears. It only brought back memories of when she was made to watch Derick die. "No, no, no, no," Julia screamed as she tried to run away. The guards grabbed her and led her back to the platform. 

Two nuns stood there, sent to help Julia and Isabel prepare their souls before they died. They peered down at Julia and Isabel and could only feel pity for them. 

"You are to go first! Julia will go last; she has to watch you die." the guard told Isabel. This was a big shock to Isabel for her daughter to experience another loved one die before her eyes. "Please, sir, do not let her see me die; spare her this horror. She has suffered enough for her crimes," Isabel begged. "The queen gave us orders that we can not go against. You must go first," the guard told Isabel as he led her to the steps. 

Isabel tried to keep her composure as she walked up the steps to the scaffold. She could only hope that their deaths would be quick. 

"My child, repent your sins and give your soul to God. Be brave; it will pass fast," the nun told her. Isabel was at a loss for words and couldn't even think. She nodded and then put her head down, choking back the tears that threatened her.

Isabel started to lose her nerve as her body began to tremble. 

She walked over to the stone that was still stained with blood from others before her. She leaned over and tried to get prepared for her death. She looked up once at her daughter and whispered, "I love you." Julia was in horror as she watched her mother put her head on the stone and place her hands on the sides. "When you are ready, let me know," the executioner said, taking his position beside the stone with his sword in hand. 

Isabel trembled as she tried to brace herself for the blow of the blade. "I'm ready," Isabel said as she closed her eyes. His sword came down quickly, taking her head off easy. Julia in horror watched her mother's head drop into the basket like Derick's. Her body was still jerking as it hit the ground. Julia began to scream.

Julia couldn't take no more. She collapsed to the ground and began to mumble to herself. It almost sounded like Julia had gone mad. "You have to get up!" the guard told her. He bent down and helped her up. She was barely able to stand. The guard helped her up the steps and over to the stone.

Julia collapsed next to her headless mother. She felt her whole body go numb; the fear ripped through her like a hot iron. 

The guards made her stand and prepare herself for her life to be taken. She stumbled, but the guard was there to steady her. Julia looked down at the bloody stone that was now covered in her mother's blood.

"When you're ready, bend down and put your hands by your side. Hold very still, and it will be over quickly," the executioner told her.

Julia put her trembling hands to her side and closed her eyes. The anticipation of the blade was almost ready to unravel her. She tried to focus and think of Derick, her mother, and Daniel and their good times together. The only comfort she had was her son would be spared and given a second chance at life.

The executioner's sword came down swiftly and took Julia's head off. Her head fell into the basket, and her body fell to the ground, jerking for only a few moments.

The guards then placed Julia's and Isabel's bodies into the wooden boxes. Once they sealed them, they loaded them onto a wagon that was prepared to carry them away to the graveyard. Kristen was then notified that Julia and Isabel were now dead. Now, all the queen had to do was decide what to do with Daniel.

James Asks Amelia To Move To His Castle - Chapter Fifty Six

James arrived at the cottage where Amelia was staying with her sister and husband. Amelia met James outside when she heard him ride up. "Oh, you're looking beautiful tonight," James told Amelia. "I'm so glad to see you. My sister told me that Julia and a stable boy got caught together. Did she admit that Daniel was his?" she asked James. "Yes, she did; they hung and beheaded him today," he replied to her. "That's a terrible way to die; I feel sorry for him. I hate that anyone would have to die like that. Are they going to put Julia to death for treason as well?" she asked. "Yes, she will be put to death very soon by beheading along with her mother," he told her. "Her mother, too? Amelia let out a small gasp."Yes, she knew that her daughter was committing treason and that the child was his. She knew she was playing a dangerous game when she agreed to be quiet," James replied. 

"Enough with them; I have remodeled Hampton Castle for my new home and wanted to ask if you would move in with me? I had a room designed just for you and your own ladies. James asked as he bent down on one knee and kissed her hand. "Oh! Your mother will never approve of me. She will never allow us to be together." she replied sadly. "Oh, yes, she will! She told me I could marry anyone who would make me happy, and that would be you," he told her. "Is this a proposal of marriage?" Amelia asked as she looked down at James on his knee. "Not for marriage, that I want to be special. I want you to be by my side every day and not a moment sooner. I will make you happy. Please say yes," James pleaded. "Yes, I will move into the castle with you," she replied with happiness and tears. "Good, I will come and get you when everything is arranged," he told her, then headed back to the castle.

James assembled the staff to give them their orders. "I have a special lady joining my household; she's to be treated like a queen. No one is to know she's staying here unless I decide to let others know. If any of you break this rule, I will throw you in the dungeon myself. Now prepare for her arrival tonight," he commanded everyone. The staff then headed in different directions to do their jobs.

Sarah and John arrived earlier that day while Amelia was sleeping. "I can't believe this castle. It's so amazing. I have never seen anything like it. I can't believe this is going to be our new home. Amelia is one lucky girl. She's been through so much; I think it's time for her to be happy," Sara told John.

When it grew dark, James went to get Amelia. They finally arrived at the castle. As she walked up to the front gate, she was taken by its beauty. "This is your castle?" Amelia asked. "Yes, and your new home," he replied. It's amazing!" she told James.

"The first place I want to show you is your room. I decorated and designed it. I hope you like it," James told Amelia as she looked around in amazement.

"These are your new ladies; they will attend to you with anything you need.

Starting from the left is Lady Anneke, Lady Karen, Lady Kristi, and then Lady Molly.

Lady Kristi and Lady Molly helped Amelia with her dress. "You look beautiful, Amelia. James told me to tell you to meet him outside in the garden." Lady Kristi told her. 

Amelia walked outside, looking around the magnificent garden. She ventured down the rows of flowers until she spotted James standing waiting on her. 

Amelia walked up to James. "Wow, you look amazing, like a true princess," he told her.

"Wake me up; this feels like I'm dreaming. I don't deserve you," she told him as she wrapped her arms around him."Let's watch the sunset together, and then you can retire to your room to rest," he told her.

Steve and Frank were down in the corridor, chatting away. "So, what do you make of this mystery lady?" Steve asked Frank. "I think it's that girl that the queen was trying to find a while back. They say she has the same curse as James," he replied.

Before Amelia went to her room, she found her sister in the banquet hall. "I'm so happy; I can't believe this," she gushed at her sister. "I would have never imagined that you would be James's love interest," she replied to Amelia.

"I hope he makes you happy. You guys have many cute babies, so I can spoil them rotten," she giggled as she hugged her sister.

Amelia was now ready for bed; she looked around her room and wondered if this was happening. "I wonder if his mom will allow us to be together, or will she force us apart again?" she thought as she went to bed.
