Irony

chapter 2

I hurriedly came to the ballroom and felt my sister's eyes on me, curiousity obvious. My dad was also looking with Mom and Lyon, Jake few steps away but eyes on me.  They were all pretty but ebony was my priority, she was no where in sight. Suddenly the door opened and everywhere became quiet and the doors opened as guards rushed in , I looked at my sister and she was also surprised then gasp followed, I turned and saw ebony . I smiled and was Soo happy, she looked at me and smiled a little. My happiness became short lived when she went to the side and I saw a red haired lady who was in a black ball gown, obviously the cause of gasps. She looked up and our eyes met, recognition set in and she gave me a wicked smile like the one she gave me years ago.

"Alys" I gasped as she walked towards my dad , she won't recognize me because Lyon and I look alike plus only royals and those in palace knows me. No doubt she was beautiful, she was called the goddess of beauty. Ebony was good looking but she was enchanting, in a devilish way and she knew.

" Greetings your highness" she said upon getting to my parents, I looked at ebony who looked away.. is alys controlling her life

" Princess, welcome" mom said turning towards mine and Lyon direction" meet...." She was interrupted when alys walked towards me, even other guests didn't know me I guess my parents were shocked

" Arthur" she said to my face. She remembered me as Arthur"Nice to meet you" she said and I looked behind her to see ebony shaking . They were scared of her, literally everyone.

"Alys" I said and my sister tilted her head a little confused

" It's Alysa" she corrected me smirking

" Alys" I repeated and it was obvious we didn't forget each other, I clenched my jaw and she gave me the you are annoying look, I'll kill you. She took a step closing the distance between us. Everyone were watching and my brother looked amused

"" How about a dance?" She asked and took my hands leading me, always so commanding. We went to the ballroom and I took a good look at ebony, not looking bad herself almost like a princess" she's mine" alys said

" What?"

" Your eyes all over Britney" she scoffed" I own her and I'll release her when I want. She will never go to you without my permission, besides you are about to be mine" her eyes looking evilly at Britney

" I won't marry you"

" Then she dies" she gripped my biceps" she can't have her eyes on my thing. Even if I dump you" she was worse than I last saw her

" You can't stop my heart, you can marry me but I won't love you"

"" I don't need your love" she said laughing low and held my chest" it's all business, plus you are of high class" my face changed colour as she said it, the air was not suddenly enough and I held her for strength. I looked up and saw my sister watching us intently.

" You'll never change ?" I managed out gripping her but she didn't say anything" devil" I managed to say and I felt her smile

" I hope you'll find a devilish name for me me when I take Britney's life, I have been looking for an excuse to get rid of her, thank you" she said leaving me but I held her hands pulling her closer

" I can't breathe" I gritted out

" Just die, it'll be easy than watching your beloved die" she said leaving me but I held on to her

" Please" I fell on her as she held me tighter than I expected, we fell to ground and heads turned, my sister running towards us. Like she was used to this, she brought my head to her chest and her hands went to my back patting me gently, I was blanking slowly but was hearing voices
