" You will go back to hell if nobody feed you" Ranata looked at the crying Zilla but shrugged and turned back to Mira as if sha had only one daughter.
Zilla cried and sucked her thumb as it was the only comfort.
" She will go no where as she is a daughter of Almira family. Are you insane?" Albert shouted shake his head. Ranata looked at Albert and smiled " We need to talk" she said and held her husband's hand. She pleaded with him to offer Zila to the god before she degrade the clan.
" I am doing this for you, she will soil the family's name and it will affect you". She said.
After sometimes Albert agreed to kill the girl if she show signs of being a demon but asked Renata to feed and cloth her till then.
****************
Four months later
" I knew you are a demon the moment you came put of my womb, how dare you little demon of just four month break the gift his Majesty gave my husband.
I should have listened to the priest and offer your stinking soul to the god of our kingdom!" Renata shouted as she use a piece of the broken vase to brutally draw tattoo on little Zila's arm.
Zila cried but nobody came to her rescue, not even Albert. Renata raised her head and looked at her husband with determination
" You asked me to feed and cloth a demon and I did just that for four good months but today will be the end of her life, take it or leave it, Zila will leave this house today and nobody will talk about her from now on".
She carried Zila, wrapped her with a wrapper and put her inside a basket and left the house followed by Albert and Zillo.
Zillo cried and begged his father to save Zila but Albert shouted at him to keep shut and go back home. Zillo slowdown but followed his parents in low pace.
The Almiras took their daughter to the evil forest at the border of the kingdom and left her to the mercy of wild animals.
Zillo came out of his hiding place when his parents left and looked at Zila with pity. He played with her till he heard the howl of a wolf, been a little boy himself he was scared and ran away but before he could came back with hunters Zila had disappeared.
They searched till dawn but came out with nothing but Zila's wrapper which make them believe she had been killed by wolf.
