"No! You will listen to me this time Skye, there is no way you are marrying him never!" Her father was furious, mad at the thought that she would mention such a thing.
She couldn't blame him. Afterall she interfered causing everything to go wrong and this was the only way to save her people and she would even if it meant spending her whole life with that beast.
"Father it is the least I can do I am the reason we are in this situation" she tried to make him see reason.
"No I won't allow it Skye, you are not marrying him and that is final" he concluded.
"Father please listen to me. He will never let us go, he is planning to take over the kingdom and then killing us, he can still have me if he wants" Skye explained.
"You will never marry that man you hear me" he said ignoring everything she had said.
Later that night...
"Has your father made a decision?" Zed asked and Skye looked down at her feet.
"He refuses I marry you" she replied and Zed gave chuckled, it was a pow dark sound.
Suddenly he threw a dagger across the room which almost struck her head and she stared at him in shock.
"Then I suppose I behead you all tomorrow and take over your kingdom" he said and she looked down again.
"I will try to convience him" Skye pleaded.
She heard his footsteps walking towards her but she kept her head down.
His finger came under her chin and he raised her head up staring deep into her eyes.
"Even if you cannot convince him, I will still have you" he said with such authority she was marvelled at how somone could speak the way he did.
He let go of her chin, leaving the room and as soon as the door shut she heard grunting turning back she saw Pharian the man who had suddenly appeared yesterday who was now trying to pull out the dagger Zed had thrown from the wall.
"Who are you?" She asked scared and confused staring at the man who always seemed to appear after Zed left.
"I am your friend Pharian" he grunted as he pulled the dagger free and cheered himself.
"We are not friends" she stated.
"How Draconian" he scoffed walking over to her.
"I am Pharian and you are Skye, you are a princess I am not, what else?..." He seemed to question himself.
"Does Zed know you exist?" She asked.
"He wishes I didn't" Pharian laughed but his eyes held a hint of sadness which vanished as soon as it came but she had seen it.
"Sorry" she said and he laughed.
"Do not worry it is nothing" He smiled his smile didn't seem as evil as Zed's but she could tell he was also not normal.
"If you are truly my friend Pharian help me and my father escape" She urged him hoping to take advantage of the situation and he laughed.
"Zed will have my head, I do not interfere in his business or I will truly not exist" he smiled and the last bit of hope she had died.
She noticed that Pharian never used the title Prince or anh honorifics when he spoke about Zed and she wondered why.
She turned around to ask him but he was already gone and Zed walked into the room.
"You are still here? I thought you will be halfway down convincing your father" Zed mocked.
"I have and he has agreed" Skye lied and the widest smile she had ever seen appeared on his face.
