(Nozel's pov)
"Mother, please don't leave me!" I said with tears on my eyes while I stand next to my mother who lies nearly dead on her bed.
"Nozel, even if I die, that doesn't mean I wil leave you. I will always be with you, but you won't be able to see or hear me." my mother said with a smile. "Promise me that you'll protect your siblings and you'll love them, okay?"
"Yes, mother, I promise." I said while holding my mother's hand.
"I love you, my son....." she said before she took her last breath. She died. I cried next to her a couple of minutes until I heard the door opened.
"Nozel, stop crying like a baby!" my father said with anger that shooked me inside. I was afraid of him because since I was 4, he wanted to be like him and, every time I refused to do like he says, he made me to regret by beating me and offending me."Your mother is dead, get over it and... "
"How can I get over it?" I said frowning my eyes. "She's my mother, she died in front of my eyes, I can't get over it like I don't even care..."
" Shut up, stupid boy! If you want to become the captain of the Silver Eagles and a powerfull mage, you must let go this childish behave and GET OVER IT! "he said yelling me that scared me to death." Now come. I have something to show you. "
"Yes.....father." I said with fear in my voice. I followed him out of the room to his office. He stand down in his chair and showed me a book with the title
"FATHER, WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS ?" I said with shock in my eyes. "You can't be serious..."
"I'm very serious, Nozel. Now that your mother is dead, no one can stop me to you to a man how I wish. Here I decided when you get married, who will be your wife, how many children you'll have etc." he said calm with a frown in his eyes.
"This is ridiculous. I'll never follow your stupid program..."
"You'll do it or you will regret it. You already made a mistake having your mother's mercury magic, the only way you could repair this is to follow this program and do as I say. Understood?" he said while approaching me and handed me the book.
"Yes..." I said while a tear ran down on my cheek. I took the book and go to my room. Since that day, I hadn't my own life anymore.
