Thousand pair of hands applauded as the new queen who will serve in perpetuity bowed. A smirk plastered on her victorious lips. Sinful feet embedded on the red carpet floor. Steps as heavy as her grief, because under her vanquished facade is a mourning villain.

Her triumph wasn't achieve by inheritance. It was her prizewinning. One knee on the ground, and head hang low. A lone tear draw her agony. Her teeth penetrated her mouth, tasting a metallic flavored liquid. She stood and directly expressed her suffering on the former ruler's eyes. Her knuckled turning white but she didn't betray. She swallowed the invisible lump in her throat before facing the crowd. The people rejoiced, cheered and hailed her name.

The elders on the hierarchy is beyond impressed. Their scion defeated the heir of the enemy.

Before the Coronation

The land of the sea and sun is owned by two different districts. The Kim's and the manoban's. Despite being under the same kingdom, they founded rivalry. This ignited hundred years of battle royal. To test and manifest their future ruler.

Lisa who's the only daughter of  King Manoban was fearless, devoted and loyal. From a very young age she was thought to eliminate all weaknesses.  Was thought to kill even their own men. The word guilt and mercy is removed from her life. Pain and honor is her possession. She must protect their empire.

Then here's come the heir of the Kim's, who's also a warrior. Jennie the first born was obedient, welcoming and a family oriented woman. She treasures their people, helps them in any way she can. Was declared as their saviour and hope. She must save their people.

Two different soldier, with their own ways of surviving life. Unexpectedly destiny twisted their paths. They met each other in the most inconvenient situation. The Kim district was attacked by the Manobans. And through the battle Lisa was  rescued by someone. To her disbelief it was non-other than Jennie.

Because of the injuries she have. She got no choice but to stay with her. Her cold demeanor didn't affected the Kim's heir. All her protest, mocks and bad mouths was thrown down the drain as the brunette let is pass. Lisa was captured, its true. The reason why her family thought she was killed.

However, something stirred inside Jennie that made her kept the wretch soul. Lisa slowly became comfortable under her shelter. She became her little secret. For months Jennie accompanied her. Opening her eyes to the beauty their territory have. Unknowingly, the woman with golden locks is destroying her walls. Letting the unfamiliar tingling feeling she feels everytime she's with Jennie.

   "I just hope one day all our people will stop cutting each others throat. It's tiring and I don't see the point of it." Jennie exclaimed.

Lisa was watching her intently, amazed how the wind dances with her hair. How the birds hum whenever Jennie speaks. It was magnificent.

Times passed, they both set free their forbidden love. "Let's escape...our family, our responsibilities..." Lisa was eager. But the brunette had another in mind. "We can't leave our people. We promised" They cried at each other's arm. "I love you Jennie. More than anything in this world."

"I love you too Lisa, more than anything the world could give" That night they separated. The Scion returned to home.

Howbeit faith have
another plan for them. Jennie's father and hundreds of their people was killed by a uncalled strike.  This drive her to revile agaisnt the enemy. Besmirched

with guard bloods and hers she stood in valiant. The individuals inside the rival's palace is pitying and judging her. She made the worst decision.

"What brought you here peasant" one of the elder asked. Making the others laugh.

"We signed for peace!" Her voice thundered inside the halls.

"Oh...the fake commitment?" Another elder spoke. Her blood boiled at their unfiltered statements.

"We agreed, we paid respect. And you devils bombed the heart of our city!" In a swift she throwed a kunai. Without a blink the reigning queen was dropped dead. Everyone gasps and started to take action. They take hold of Jennie and covered her face. But then the horn blared. Indicating that the scion arrived.

The commotion stopped for a second and the people gave way for the  wrathful warrior. Lisa looked up to her mother, she loves her so much she would do anything for her. "Who ungrateful  murderer did this!" She screeched.

The guards kicked the brunette, stumbling before the raging woman. Without reluctant Lisa impaled her sword on the suspect's stomach. Earning a painful whimper. The scion didn't let go and buried it deeper. "You deserve this" she then took off the cover.

Forthwith eyes produced regretful tears. Jennie's weightless body crushed to her shuddering one. The bruntte's eyes fluttered seeing Lisa. With a weak smile she placed her palm on the latter's cheeks. Once in Lisa's life she was eaten by guilt. And it will go on until she dies.

"JENIEEEEEEE!"

All that, in exchange for a crown.
