She felt desperate at this moment as her body was so weak. She could not take it as she had never had this feeling, she was used to being strong and fighting. When Lora and Kevin had been torturing her, that too did not feel like a desperate moment but now that she had to protect others, she felt even more helpless. The pain emitted all through her body and when she fell on her knees, the person in front of her laughed "It feels so good to see the queen on her knees in front of me but the sad part is that I can't hurt you as that is the order of the leader. We all are really curious to look at your face."

Letting them see her face could be too disadvantageous and she knew that because when she was in her human form, she could be easily hurt by them so keeping her face hidden was the most important part.

Rachel saw the witch coming closer to her but the power that she had regained with the help of the throne was all consumed by her body enduring the attack. She could not even get up on her own feet as they witch came to stand just in front of her. She placed a hand on Rachel's mask but before she could remove it, Rachel caught hold of her wrist and twisted it with all the strength she had. She didn't know how but a huge amount of strength suddenly came over her body, she killed all the witches present there and finally made up her mind to put this to an end, she knew only she could do that.

She went straight to Robert's castle and barged into his room, he was lying leisurely on his bed and this time, he too had a mask on his face. She didn't care anymore as she was not interested in him anymore, she went up to him and wrapped her hand around his neck as is she was going to strangle him to death "Tell me what do you want that you are creating so much trouble for?"

He smiled and wrapped his arm around her waist while his other hand reached for her mask as he got up from the bed. She threw him back on the bed with all the force and shoot him a nasty glance. As he got up, she punched him in the stomach but he was not affected by it and stood there immobile. He instead moved closer to her and as a reflex she moved back and this continued until she fell on the couch. She placed his hands on either side of her "I just want to see your face."

She took the opportunity and was about to attack him at his crucial spot when he caught hold of her leg "You can't use the same trick everytime."

She didn't give up and hit her with the other leg "Matter of fact, I can and it works the same. I am telling you to stop messing with the kids or it won't be good for you."

He smiled, moving even closer, his lips just hovering over hers "You just have to agree to my simple request and this whole thing would be over."

Rachel glared at him "What makes you think, I will walk right into your trap and if you don't want me to blow this place up then get your witches under control."

She had never seen such a strong leader as him before, she could actually sense that he was at her level and strong enough to fight with her. If that were to happen both sides would be severely injured and it was hard to say that who would win. In this case with Rachel's weakened powers, she knew she could not fight this man right now. No matter how strong she was, she was smart enough to accept her weaknesses too so she just left after warning him.

She went to her room and seeing her healthy Rafel had a deadly expression on his face as he said "You used your reserved energy."

She smiled at him and said "I don't know how long I can hold on so let me have a look at the screen quickly."

Rafel moved aside and made his way for her as she tapped the screen to see what the leader was upto. She still had hope that he would do something nice so she came here to see. As expected, her initial judgement about this person was right, he was indeed a nice person. He called someone into his room and said "Gather near my throne."

He sat on the throne and his eyes scanned through the crowd intensely with a hidden disappointment in them. He spoke in a sharp tone scaring everyone "Who harmed the queen?"

Everyone was confused but they thought that it was a good thing to harm her and as she was their opponent so the witches that had not been killed by her and were still involved in harming her stepped forward while one of them took the initiative to speak "Some of them were killed by the queen but we are still alive."

He smiled coldly and got up from his place, the air around him suddenly turned a lot colder and his appearance become even more dangerous as he made his way towards them "Who told you that you could hurt her. I want her here unscratched and unharmed and now that she is already injured just stop hurting the children and sit back until I give any orders. This time if anyone tries to do something behind my back, I will make sure to serve you properly."

He threw a cold glance at the people who had hurt the queen and then killed them all with his own hand with a sly smile on his face "I want to see who else wants an end like this."

All the others standing there trembled and didn't even dare to breathe loudly because if that were to irk the leader, they didn't know what their ends would be. Robert waved his hand for them to leave the place and he went to go and sit on the throne.

Rachel smiled and let out an order for all the witches to return back, she then placed a hand on the screen for it to disappear and as she did that, she immediately collapsed on the ground. Rafel let out a loud worried roar, although no one could understand his words, they did understand that this loud roar didn't mean anything good so all the witches gathered outside her room. As they were not allowed to casually enter the Queen's room, they just knocked at the door to ask "Your Highness, is everything alright."

When they didn't hear any reply, they became worried and finally entered the room after hearing Rafel roar again. He had his eyes glistened with tears as he looked at the Queen and then at the other witches to take care of her. Jessica and Jamie had not returned yet but the witches that were in front went to their knees letting out a sharp cry "My Queen!"

Rafel let out a roar again to tell them not to waste much time and as if they understood what he said, some of them went together to call for the doctor. It was definitely going to take about 20 to 25 minutes to bring in the doctor and until then the others could not sit idly. They began to use their healing powers on the Queen but there was not a bit of change to her body.

Desperately everyone began to try something but nothing happened to the Queen when one of them said "The throne can cure."

The witch next to the queen said "Only if the queen is still conscious."

They all looked at Rafel in order to find some help but he shook his head as he too had faced this kind of situation for the first time. Only a very strong person mentally and physically could bring out the extra stored power in their bodies in desperate times in order to survive and it was the first time a witch queen had been able to do it and that too on her first try. Not only did she survive, she also fought back that showed that they didn't have this strong person in their history ever before.

As they were making attempts to help the queen Jamie and Jessica too arrived at the place. Seeing such a great crowd in The Queen's room, they could not help but worry and after knowing the situation they didn't know how to react. Soon the doctor arrived to and went to sit next to her, he looked at her condition and then said in a worried tone "This is bad, she has used all her reserved energy."

As no one knew this before, they were dumbstruck and froze in their places forgetting how to react.
