"You witch! What have you done?" A girl with long silver hair in a long braid said as she held her lover, who was unconscious in her arms. The witch had said some words in a foreign language and a dark light hit the young man.
" Well Lillian, Axel is nothing but a cheap lair. He promised to love me for eternity. Then he goes and marries you, a pretty noblewoman. He had karma coming for him." The witch sneered in their direction. The girl looked down at her lover and held his face.
She muttered under her breath, "What did you do?" Her face was stained with her tears. She had never even heard of this woman. Axel had never talked much of his past, so this mysterious woman could be telling the truth.
"A simple curse is all. His firstborn child will cause the end of this damned kingdom." The witch circled the couple like a shark hunting its prey. "That child is his curse." The woman looked at the witch in disbelief. She couldn't believe this.
"No matter the consequences, you can't separate us. Even with your petty curse." The woman's sorrow has now turned to anger. She held the unconscious body close to hers. "He chose me over you and now you have to ruin our chance as a family because of some petty jealousy."
The witch clenched her jaw and huffed. "Just you wait. He'll disappoint you as he did me. Just remember the name, Althea." The woman turned and disappeared in a cloud of purple dust. The girl coughed as the dust disappeared. She felt a slight movement in her arms.
"Axel!" She yelled out. "Axel. Oh my heavens." Axel coughed and his eyes fluttered open. He opened his mouth to talk but the girl shook her head. " No. Don't talk and save your strength. It'll be okay. I promise." She cradled his body close to her and cried.
5 years later....
The cries of a child could be heard throughout the castle. In a chamber, a woman lay drenched in sweat but paid no mind as she looked down at the baby boy in her arms. She smiled sweetly at the small one. His small eyes matched her own. The room was quiet all except for the coos coming from the babe.
The quiet was broken with a loud bang from the chamber's door. A tall man with dark hair stormed in. "Leave," he spoke to the maids in a deep voice. He almost sounded angry. The maids scattered out of the room and the door shut with a thud. "You need to get rid of it. Now. "
