"It's prince Calixto." he lowered his hood from his head showing his albino hair.

"You are marrying prince Calixto." I remembered what the empress said all those years ago.

"Calixto?" I whispered.

"Oh, sorry I meant emperor." Guards started approaching us.

"Let go of me!" Mahika struggled to flee from the guards' clutch.

Mahika bellowed, and then I turned to Calixto angrily.

"I'm sorry if I hurt you, but I can't let you hurt my friend!" I looked at him furiously.

"Really?" he scoffed.

I used my teleportation spell, and I quickly attacked him before he could even react, but he suddenly backflipped over me.

I turned around and tried to punch him, but he blocked it which made me distance away from him, but I quickly did a cartwheel and faced him.

He ran up to me and tried to attack me again, but I lifted his leg and trampled him to the ground stunning him.

"You didn't go easy on me." I smiled arrogantly.

"Yeah, you are an enemy, you laid hands on a royalty itself. You could get a death sentence." he replied.

"Normally men go easy on me because of my certain gender, you were really treating me if I was your real opponent." I spoke.

"Just because you're a woman, doesn't mean you're weak." he said.

He quickly got up and grabbed and then pulled me to the ground.

"Now tell me darling, who are you?" We suddenly switched positions.

"I think I can guess, a beauty, black hair, and hazel eyes. Didn't fit the description of a princess, but I could guess why you're like this." he smirked.

"What nonsense are you talking about, princess?" I got nervous.

"Stop acting, many people don't have eyesight like me. I saw your crown when you were talking to that mermaid." he said.

"You don't know how long I've searched for you."

I knew I didn't like him one way or another, so I spat at him in disgust.

"I'll never marry you." I said furiously.

"Marry? We're already married, I was looking for you so I could divorce you." he giggled.

"Did you know I was forced to marry you too? I didn't demand a marriage." he said.

"Let's have a chat, shall we? We're a married couple anyway." he gave me his hand.

But after a while we started to get along well.

"Your plan is to get rid of the empress and abdicate your sisters?" he laughed.

"You think I can't do it? I asked.

"With a short amount of people, yes." he said.

"That's why I'm going to hand myself in, get myself in the palace, there are less guards inside the dungeon than on the outside of the palace. Instead of fighting our way in, they can let an enemy in without even knowing." I said.

"Yeah, you're right." he was surprised.

"So will you ruin my plan and arrest me?" I glanced at him.

"Let me join you," he sat up.

"I've built the second highest empire, what the Shekaphia empress does is horrendous, and I need to change it. I will declare a war sooner or later." he said.
