《Marriage of Benefits》Chapter 345 - Causing trouble (2)
Advertisement
As she said that she called one of the witches and said "It is your responsibility to alert all the witches to stay on guard and convey my message to them, I will divide you all into 3 groups.
One will be at the borders of our land protecting it.
Second will be responsible for the taking care of all the children in the living world, this group will have greater number.
Third will be on guard for the witches that need rest and want to be replaced or if they have an emergency.
No one is supposed to get away from their position leaving it empty no matter what just call for help. Is that understood."
Everyone nodded their head and said in unison "Yes, My Queen."
The one who was responsible for conveying the information asked "Is something wrong, Your Highness?"
Rachel looked at her with a serious expression and said "I don't know much but the evil witches are planning something and it may hurt the children. As they are not strong enough to fight us they may use dirty tricks so we have to be alert. I will be in my room observing everything and if there is any problem I will let you know. Now hurry up and get to your positions, I have already assigned them to you and the list is in the hall."
Everyone bowed their head and left the place to follow the orders while she went back into the room to keep an eye on the witches through the screen with Rafel who said "You should take some rest My Queen as you will need energy to fight in the future until then I will keep an eye on the screen for you."
"Rafel I know you will but even if I go back I won't be able to sleep at the thought of something fishy going out here."
He nodded "I understand but you have to trust me and if you are that restless just sleep in this room because of all the people your rest is the most important."
She finally agreed after saying "Alright then I am entrusting you with this, wake me up as soon as you see something wrong."
He nodded his head and she went to lay on the bed that was placed in her room.
Jamie told Jessica about Rachel's orders and she said that she would try talking to Robert about this before she began following the orders. Both of them were assigned the responsibility to take care of the children as it was a huge responsibility.

Jamie went to her assigned place, they were all assigned a small area to take care of and they were sure about the vast area where the attack could take place. Rachel had carefully thought of everything but the biggest loophole that was in her plan was that those people were too evil. They could droop down to a level she could never even think of and that was the only problem.
Jessica went to Robert to tell him what these people were upto and as someone of power he could control them, she hoped to get some help from him. He was powerful and the evil witches respected him but as he was not ready to take any action they were doing it on their own and as his sister Jessica knew that Robert was not the kind of person to hurt anyone unnecessarily moreover hurting the kids was not even close. She went to his room and knocked the door, he was lying on the bed still thinking about the person who had stole his thoughts in just one meeting and occupied his brain completely. When he heard the knock, he said "Jess, if it is not something important than let's talk in the morning."
Jessica said in a panicked voice "If it were not important I would not be here this late, right."
He found it reasonable and said "Wait a sec."
He then got up from the bed and quickly opened the door, seeing him Jessica was about to tell him everything when she noticed that he had still not changed his clothes. She looked at him and said "Wait, why are you still in these clothes, don't tell me my boss has occupied your mind that you even forgot to change your clothes."
Robert looked at her coldly "Shut up and got to the point."
She then remembered what she had come in for and said "Oh Yeah! I came to tell you that the your little witches are trying to harm little kids without your knowledge and our queen is taking actions so tell them to stop doing whatever they are doing."
There was a glimmer in his eyes as he heard this "Interesting that this queen is just as smart as your boss. I want to see if she is as beautiful as her too."
Jessica hit his arm "Robert, you are going off the topic, tell them to stop or they will hurt the kids."

There was a mischievous smile on his lips as he said "I won't let anything happen to the kids but I do want to meet this queen of yours."
Jessica rolled her eyes "You wish, it is not like anyone can see her. She is the person only know by the high up witches who are allowed to enter the castle and not even the low level witches have seen her. The people who are interested and came to see her never returned and died in our holy land."
Robert's smile grew wider "Interesting, sounds like your boss has a competition."
Rachel laughed as she knew both of them were same but without saying anything she went out of the room.
He then went to his castle which was sized by him as the leader of the evil witches. It was completely opposite to the one in which the witch queen lived. This castle was visibly evil surrounding by complete darkness and there was nothing but rocks around the castle. It looked like the most evil place in the world and this was even unacceptable by Robert, he didn't like this darkness so he lit the fire to reveal his shadow but his face was not visible.
Rachel had just fallen asleep when she was woken up by Rafel saying "My Queen, there is a suspicious character entering the place, you might want to see."
Rachel nodded her head and said "Rafel you should call me Rachel, I don't like being addressed formally. I can't stop others from doing that but no one can understand you other than me and you are my friend so don't be formal."
He nodded his head as Rachel got out of the bed to stand in front of the screen. As she saw the mysterious figure it seemed very much like Robert and she could not help but wonder if it was the same person. She looked at the face and tried to figure out the outline and when she was busy doing that she heard a knock at the door.
Rachel said frowning "Who is it?"
There was a silence for a while maybe due to her angry tone but after a while she said "It's Jessica, Your Highness."
Rachel realized that her tone was not right so she said in a gentler tone "Is it something urgent."
Jessica panicked voice came "Yes, My Queen."
She looked at Rafel and said "Keep a watch and I will be back."
Rafel nodded while Rachel went out of the room "What's wrong?" she asked softly.
Jessica bowed her head and said "2 children have disappeared and we can not find anything about them, we don't even have a clue of what happened and the witches assigned to that place is dead."
Rachel's eyes widened "What! Dead?"
Jessica nodded her head and Rachel immediately said "Ask the third group to join, 2 witches at one place, keep a watch for each other too. Jessica I assign you to make the groups that are most compatible, be quick we don't have much time, they have started acting."
As she said that she heard Rafel's roar "There is a kid in this place."
She gestured Jessica to leave as she entered into the room again and saw the children
who were standing there scared of the surroundings, her heart began to beat for them and she said "We should go there."
Rafel quickly said "No, it may not be right, they may be harmed."
Rachel nodded "You are right"
She waited for a while and looked into the screen as the mysterious figure went into the dark castle and sat on the throne. He then said loudly "Call everyone here."
The people present in there shivered at the tone of his voice and quickly ran away. Soon all the witches were gathered into the room scared and their bodies shaking slightly as he said "Did you for a plan behind my back?"
Rachel didn't know why but she had a feeling that this was a nice person and he didn't want to harm anyone.
No one spoke and he shouted "Did you harm any child."
No one spoke but 2 children were brought in and seeing them he called them over then said "Interesting, this might be fun."
