All of us royals have been keeping to ourselves inside of our palaces ever since the war. Isolating ourselves, rejuvenating, and healing from our injuries. I have to say this week has been pretty stressful. It's not everyday you have a war and have to act like a Brainiac. Says the only hybrid to exist.

I knocked on Arthur's door "Arthur?" the door opened and I took that as an invitation "Arthur?"

He laid on his bed writing inside of his diary "Hello, Elena."

I rubbed my arm feeling as if he's upset for some reason "I was wondering if you're okay?"

He sits up in bed and puts his book aside "Are you wanting to check on my bandages?"

I smile "Yes" I walk over to his bed and sit beside him.

Slowly I unravel his bandages. They look like they need some cleaning. Though they're almost healed, I'd rather clean them daily than let him get a bad Vampire disease like Vampre Necrotizing Fasciitis. Him being who he is, I wanted to be careful not to startle him. I slowly unraveled the thin layer covering his wound. It was icky. I quickly got more bandages and ointments and pads to put on it. Every now and then he'd clench his teeth in pain. Seen as though the beast to my beauty doesn't handle pain well.

"There" I finish the wrap and gently place a hand over it "wounds are cleaned and you're patched now."

He smiles "Look Elena" he rubs his neck "I'm sorry I've seemed so distant lately. I was in a mode of duty above my love for you."

I look into his eyes, attempting to sense something other than an apology.

"I felt like I couldn't come talk to you for the past couple of days because you've seemed so distant towards me. I guess it's because I did put work over you and I did get kind of mad when I found out you were talking to Diane."

I play with my fingers trying to avoid the eye contact he wants out of me. I'm truly upset because he has been laying me aside. He's been keeping to himself inside of his room, not talking to me much. I've been wondering if I did something wrong?

"Listen I'm sorry, I didn't mean to push you away while trying to do my work."

I smile weakly "It's ok..."

He grabs my hand "Is there anything I can do to make it up to you?"

I look at him, trying to hold back the tears of maybe he's not taking me as seriously as I want him to take me "No..." I get up and go to the door "I have to go get ready for the announcement later today."

He runs a hand through his hair "Okay...I'll see you later today."

I decided to wear a sky blue gown with a white sash belt to match with my white flats. Arthur wears a red white suit, a suit as usual. This is the first day I've actually decided to wear my obsidian ring that symbolizes I'm Persianian royalty. If I'm going to accept my heritage, I might as well look the part. I normally don't wear my Persianian ring because I see it as an object that says I agree to do whatever my father says. The ring is really to show Persiania my loyalty and the strength of my people. But I wear it now, today, to show that I love the people of Persiania and they are my duty. I love everything about Persiania. I wouldn't give Persiania up for anything.

Arthur and I sit inside the conference room waiting for the clock to strike 10pm so we can make a huge announcement that the war is over and we were victorious.

I stare at my hands till I can't hold my silence anymore "Arthur?"

He looks up from his writing "Yes?"
