    Richard said yes with his head and Albert used his most powerful magic to Richard came in the personality of King Aaron.

    Are you sure that is going to work- was Richard voice with the mask in his face.

    Yes, of course it is going to work- Albert said with so much confidence- Ride into the Dragon’s flames, go that this flames transform your true self.

    Richard Grandchester rode until he arrived to castle in his faithful Black horse, meanwhile the steamy weather cover his true being, he posses King Aaron’s resemblance, and like a True king he entered to castle, the knights made him a reverence, Richard didn’t believe what was going on, when he arrived to the main gates of the castle he went down of the horse and with the mask in his face, he went out the stairs in a speed step going to the doors of the main room of the queen, he opened the door, Eleanor was lying down in the bed with a beautiful white silky gown, his perfect figure was showing, he wasn’t with any make up, she was looking at him annoyed, she thought that his husband was back, Richard looked at her as he was his muse, he took off the mask he was very sure about Albert’s spell, he took Eleanor by the waist.

    My Lord- Eleanor Baker – I didn’t know that you were back of battle.

    In that moment he was like an animal and got close to his chest, Eleanor was surprised, because Aaron was a gentelmen and no so rude as she looked at him at that time, but she forgave his attitude, Richard knew perfectly well about Albert’s spell, he threw into the bed, and he could see his long a well done legs like the porcelain and without thinking more he possessed her with all his force, Eleanor was in ecstasy thinking that was with his beloved King Aaron, Susan watched what was going on, And saw an strange man making love to her mother; Eleanor moaned and when Richard finished he went away living her almost passed out, living her alone, in that moment a big movement felt down stairs the castle, she could heard with clarity, she tried to recover herself and put something to cover herself.

    Inside the castle was a deep scream, getting all the knights cold, Eleanor couldn’t believe what his eyes looking in the grown his husband dead, his face was pale with some blood in it, Eleanor put a hand in her mouth to don’t shout looking his husband.

    It can’t be true!- she said- He was with me this night in my room- she put of her knees to see his face, to that moment she thought that was going to loose her mind, meanwhile Susan looked with a serious face to that scene, the King’s knight left the body and took it from there, to that point Eleanor was thinking who was that man that posses her as an animal that night.
