Chapter 8
" she knows "Natasha pov
"czarina aria? You're majesty it's time to get ready for the ball" a loud voice stated behind the heavy door and we both revealed our faces behind the covers
"I'm still tired, could you please just comeback in an hour?" Aria asked covering her face again
"Darling, it's time for your preparation" a sweet voice stated which i assume is her mom
We both get dress up, her mother made me wear this fancy gown..it was a blue ball gown and aria wore a white one
"You r--eally wear this everyday?" I asked struggling while this woman behind me is tying the corset hitting my bruises
"I preferred not but i can't complain" she sigh
" You look good in that dress" her mother says approaching me Tracing her fingers at the fabrics
"aria honestly looks like she's getting married because of that white gown" i giggled
"It's traditional dear, Aria will meet the man that would be her partner in life " her Mom says and u can clearly tell the disappointment on aria's expression
After we dressed up, we were told to get in the throne hall which is a really big place for a single room
a guy suddenly came in walking his way on us
"hes not that bad" i tease smirking and she rolled her eyes as we both walked and stopped next to her father"Hello my dear, how was your morning so far my love?" the guy approached
" Worse because of your presence" she mumbled both me and marcon looked down laughing before her mother Hits her slightly
" It's good, how about you?" She responded not giving any emotions
"Oh words can never define how good is my morning after seeing your presence my czarina" he responded grabbing aria's hand and tried kissing it but has been cut out by a white sword made out of some sort of glowing magic approaching his lips
I'm shocked and step back on how fast it happened , thankfully marcon catch my shoulders. i looked up to see aria's smirk and her father holding the sword
"M-my a-apologies your highness" the prince says nervously chuckling to the king
"No one is allowed to lay their lips on my daughter before marriage" the king proclaimed fiercely before banishing his sword
I just swallowed thickly remembering what happened last night
" Aria why don't you tour the cynfael around the palace?" Her mom proclaimed
"Why would i?" She asked
"Aria" her father joined and she rolled her eyes
"Come with me I'll bring you somewhere where no one can find your corpse" she hummed walking away and i followed her
"Lady maybe you should give us some privacy?" The prince says and the next thing i know is marcon was pulling me by my wrist and suddenly I'm in a big library
"You can't follow my sister Everytime everywhere" he mumbled and literally left me in the middle of the room. I narrowed my eyes seeing he teleported on the top of a shelve finding some books
"Feel comfortable to read anything" he shouted and i started walking around wondering if i can find something interesting
I suddenly bump on something and a book fall but as soon as i picked it up i notice how light it is but it's really thick
I started looking at its pages and i saw a button. Out of curiosity i pressed it and a book fell in my head"Prophesy of The Czarina of ezacrav (the fall of the universe)"
" Isn't czarina means princess? And...this is planet ezacrav?......Aria" i mumbled in shock
I hid the book on my gown and act as if i didn't see anything and started Tracing my fingers on the book shelve acting as if I'm looking for something but my mind is still bothered about the book title.
Aria's brother is dangerous, he is protective, possessive and i feel like he would do anything to protect his sister. If I'm right in interpreting the book title, it's either aria is the end of universe or she will save the universe from falling.
I'm hoping my second guess is the answer, she has such a soft heart and i don't think she's capable of hurting anyone
"Are you ok earthling? You seem distracted" Marcon says coming out of nowhere making me flinch snapping me out of my thoughts
"Y-yes I'm fine" i responded taking a deep breath
"Give me the book"
"W-what?"
"The book you hid" he said grabbing my bicep pulling me closer to him while looking at me furiously
"I. DID. NOT. HIDE. ANY. THING" I responded
"You can't hide anything from me in my own athenaeum, my sister may hate me for life if i kill you but I'd rather receive her hate for life than letting anyone lay their hands on her. GIVE ME THE BOOK"
" One more time..I DON'T HAVE IT"
" better give us what we're asking you to give, in case you're not aware we are only keeping you alive for the sake of my daughter. I won't hesitate to kill anyone for Aria, just listen to us and give us the book" his father says also coming out of nowhere
" You're alive because i Haven't seen my daughter this happy" he added
" I---"
" Father? Marcon, Tasha.... what's happening here?" Aria says coming inside with the prince
" I could ask you the same" her father responded and she roll her eyes
"Mother told me to tour this worm remember?"
"Perhaps you should stop calling me worm my queen" the boy says with a grin
"Don't question me, you want to die?"
"No"
"Are you arguing here? Don't tell me you're manipulating tasha to leave" she scoff
"No sister, we're in fact making amends with her" Aria just looked at marcon not satisfied and base on her expression she is definitely not convinced on their excuse
"Tasha come with us"
"But my queen, this tour should only be the two of us" he complained but aria just looked at him and he eventually nodded awkwardly
As i walked pass her brother he suddenly whispered to me
"I know what happened last night.. I'm looking forward of it not happening again or else...do not lay your mortal hands on my sister"
