Chapter 91
Revelation (Part 7)
"What's going on? How did you do this? You are dead, this must be a dream," Flower said, still staring around her in shock.
"Are you still surprised by how I brought you here, Flower?" Ruthless demanded, as his goofy smile fades to be replaced by a smirk.
"This is a dream and you are dead," Flower said, putting space between them, closing her eyes, hoping by opening them again, she will be by her mate and son's side.
"Dream? Dead?" Ruthless said.
"You are dead, you are not real. Maybe you are back to torment me but you won't succeed, I got a strong mate and a strong so-" She didn't get to complete her statement when she felt one of his hands holding her cheeks tightly, so tightly that it draw blood out and she was forced to opened her eyes and stared into Ruthless rainbow eyes, she tried to remove his hand but couldn't, it was like a huge piece of rock. "Do you think an intelligent person like me won't remember anything after my punishment? When I woke up and saw you but didn't see your son besides you, I had to pretend as if I had memory loss so that you can carry out whatever plan you have so that Daniel would show up. It won't glady me if I killed you without killing Daniel. You made me lose the love of my life in her previous life and you still want your son to marry her with force in her present life, Flower what were you thinking? Such magnificent gut."
"How?" Flower managed to say, enduring the pain Ruthless fingers were causing her.
"I have already seen the birth of Vala when I was still sleeping during the years I was with you and I visited her before you died and explained to her. I know what you were planning but I couldn't do anything to you because my punishment was not to touch you nor your son. The Creator prolonged your punishment because the Creator believes when I'd wake up, you would have changed for good, but I prayed for you to remain evil until all this is over. I was punished for killing and destroying the Nilela Kingdom and the Creator punished me for that, by making me not strangle you to death in all your sleep those times we lived in that cave. But now, thanks to you and your son, you lifted up my punishment. My true punishment isn't for me not to harm you or your son, neither is it because the Creator took a part of me and made the Ruthless you know, it is, for me to die a painful death just like the way I had killed the Nilela people unjustly and out of anger, that was my true punishment and luckily for me, I died by the same people I wanted to kill. You are dead Flower, I will say hi to your son for you." Ruthless ended his speech and put a lot of pressure on the cheeks of Flower, making her gasp out loudly, he smiled widely at her. "You are dead Flower, don't mistake my smile for pity, the Creator has given me the power and authority to use against you and give you your punishment and so your punishment is death and no, my mother won't be the one to end your life or fight with you, I will and if you think you'd be dead completely, then think again." he ended his words and started blowing breeze into her face which started peeling off her face. "Let me see how you will escape this time my dear aunty."
Ruthless held on, until nothing was left on Flower's skin, though Flower was still alive but her skin was gone, except for her skeleton and soul.
"I am going to make your punishment unbearable and worse than mine for making me fight my mother," he said and made a void appear in front of them, still with his hand on her skeleton cheeks, he entered the void. "I am giving you as a gift to someone."

Galore's palace:
The devilish smirk Daniel spotted on Vala made him look around him, right before his eyes, his mother started fading, turning into sand.
"No," his startled shout drew the attention of Lucifer and Haule towards his direction.
"What's happening to Flower?" Lucifer demanded as he tried to stop Flower from completely turning into sand but failed too, they watched as Flower dissolved right in front of them. "Who did this to her?" he thundered.
"Mother," Daniel said as he knelt down at the place Flower once stood, "Who could do this to you without our knowledge?" the laughter of Vala once again brought his gaze to her. "You did this," he said, getting up to his feet. "You killed my mother."
"I didn't, but Ruthless did," Vala said as she stopped laughing.
"Where is he? He should show himself if he isn't afraid of me." Daniel shouted.
"If I were you, I'd stop and look around me first," Vala said, with a knowing smile on her lips. Daniel did as told but everything seems to look the same.
"Nothing has changed, except for my mother who mysteriously disappeared, you are going to bring back my mother wherever you had kept her, and you are doing it right this minute or else, I will do times two of what I did to you in your previous life Vala." Daniel threatened her but her smile only increased.
"Look around you again, but slowly this time around, have you noticed any difference?"
Daniel obeyed and this time, looked around then slowly, his eyes widened when he noticed what he had missed before. His Falcons were all gone, all of them that were standing outside with him were all gone. Impossible.
"Still confused about how it is possible? I will tell you. Do you think those Falcons that Ruthless used a wall to prevent them from entering, which you break the wall after your release, are the real Falcons? Foolish, if Nilela created the Falcons in the first place what made you think he won't create fake ones?"
"You are lying Vala, where then, are the real ones?"
"He dismembered them, Nilela destroyed all of them."

Underworld:
The void opened neared a throne made of skeleton and Ruthless stepped out of it. Seated on the throne of bones was Hades, the King of the underworld.
"Your gift Hades," Ruthless said, pushing Flower forward.
Hades stood up from his throne and sniffed the skeleton in Ruthless hand and smiled. Hades hardly interact with the rest of the gods and was always in his abode punishing souls who are filled with sins.
"I brought you a sinful soul Hades."
