It was said that each night, the candidates are given a chance to have dinner with the kings. After some rest, they asked to pick a piece of paper. Numbers are written, 1 to 5...the lucky will have 1st dinner with him.. It was terrifying to hear. Dining to someone you don't want to see... Some of the woman are unlikely to be kidnapped in participating the game of Soulmate Hunt.
Azalea was lucky picking the 5th, the dinner starts at 6pm Night 1. So she will be dine at 11pm Night 1. Almost near Night 2. There were 4 nights and 1 day, the 1 day will set as resting day to all creature in the land. Adolescent have the rate of 5-8 hours of sleep, depending on their time or hobby.
Azalea saw some beautiful lady wearing a black pencil-cut-shirt with some ruffles from their upper white-blouse with half length sleeves. Their hair are also style as one huge boknay. Black shoes with a 1 inch hells and the peculiar backward feet, they are known as
La Ciguapa (Dominican Republic), enchanting woman with backward feet that lures men into the woods.
The La Ciguapa wears different color of flowers in each side... they were aline by two and those who stand at left side wear their flower to the left same goes with the right side. There were 10 La Ciguapa who are aline and brought some clothes, accessories to choose from and many more girly staff. The last who stand behind wore a black vampire style suite, different style from the La Ciguapa. It was a Adze (Togo, Ghana), vampires who transform into a firefly, biting people in their sleep and killing them.
It was still long before the time of her dinner, she then meditate and talk with her team. Ivy also waits for her time, while Cassia still lost in the forest and very tired of this thing. Azalea help her through it and was able to be the 5th lady to finish the mission for that day. If Azalea didn't help Cassia before 6pm, she will be end up in slave, or maid in the palace. Lastly, the mysterious Liah, she was thr first to finish the forest game and was already finished the dinner with the King.
"Lea, I didn't dined... I set up a trap.." her voice is upset.

Lea told her, that she turn the food poisonous and eat it... she had mild diarrhea but before that.. she immediately create an antidote. Liah told her the ingredients and she start preparing it.
