Delectum

Chapter 14

It has being exactly 45hours,54minutes and 26 seconds since the king took my sister and felix's life, i have being sitting on my bed surrounded by the trays of food left as some sort of peace treaty, untouched and un welcome, i sit surrounded by my mourning pity, unable to eat, sleep,move, i even struggle to bother to breath, my body is caving in on itself.
A nock on the door declared the arrival of more food i cant eat,"why do you bother bringing me food when you know i will just leave it!" I mutter at the shadowed figure, they just nod and step forward into the light.
A small pale girl steps forward into the light;Lexi.
I jump out of my bed spilling the offerings everywhere, i embrace the skeletal figure, "how are you so thin, Lex?" She mutters back "I've being puking up since..." Her voice wavered off, i suddenly felt bad, i had forgotten about Nona so quickly. Eager to change the subject i answer " so what brings you to my humble abode?" "Well Lori i cant stay here anymore its like a constant nightmare i see him in all the soldiers and...and...you remind me of Nona" i gulp at her words, shes gonna leave me, like everybody else, i just nod and walk back to my bed, i fall face down and just lye there emotionlessly, the door creaks shut; that was the last time i would ever see Lexi, the Lexi i know and love.

It has being a week and I'm beginning to get ill from the lack of food, yet i do drink water and i fill up on toothpaste, eager to not give into there evil plot to break me, i feel it inside, my body is wasting away. Nock nock nock, i sat up puzzled by the untimed visitor, his broad build and shaven hair gave away the fact he was not a maid delivering the food.
"Jameson!, What do you want?" I spat at him, he began to speak avoiding my eyes" i need your help" he mutters, i scoff at his words, " you're kidding me right? Because i'm pretty sure your the one who sat there doing nothing while MY sister was being MURDERED FOR LOVE!!?" By this time i was in tears and he was an exact image of anger,"Lori i would of done anything to save her but my father is king, if i had tried to save her i would be hung as well because he wont want me as his heir!" I stare in shock at his un usual manner of language,i just nod and mutter "yes, what do you need help with" he answered quite curt and sharply "i need help with Maddie, i think she is the one!" I gasp, i hadn't spoken to Maddie since the attack,so thats whats being happening. "So what do you need help with,Maddie wise?" He noticeably went red,"well i need help with our 5th date, i told her it will be extra special" i nod and scan my mind for ideas, using my knowledge of Maddie; shes an 8 but loves the farms with the horses the 2's ride,"you should take her horse riding" he nods then grabs my arm and pulls me towards the door, i begin to protest and hit his arm but i stop after a couple of seconds his hold too therm, he drags me into the dinning hall, i can hear the voices of the other girls echo, i gulp and go in; the whole room fell silent.

I was just dressed in acid wash grey ripped jeans and a big armed blink 182 top, i nod and sit down near to Maddie, she smiles and me, she embraces me into a hug; i finally let a tear slip.
I decided in that moment that i will help Nona succeeded in her dream of being a princes, she is part of me, i am going to win this for her!
