His Royal Highness

The War of Heaven and Hell

I had teleported back to our room after saying goodbye to Levi at the mansion and sat by the fire, I just needed to be here till the signal. The King is close to death so they must hurry, I can't let Leo know I knew he was here. I knew leaving Levi at that mansion was the best choice but knowing him, he would come to help once the battle started. I sat there for what felt like hours trying to stay calm and relaxed, I even got a book and started reading it but couldn't even get past page one. I got up walked over to the bed and flopped on my face, I didn't realize how boring a task I gave myself. I have to play the broken-hearted fiancé as best as possible, I can fake being sad but will it convince Leo?

I turned on my back and looked up at the roof of our bed, I wish he was here right now I wanna feel his warmth. I slapped my cheeks.
"Focus Aria!" I said to myself, I got up walked over to the window, and looked down at the garden.
"I hope this is the end of all this foolishness." I said to myself as I sighed. My life was so boring before Levi and I was trapped in that house, now there's so much happening that I didn't even realize it's only been two months. I sat back down by the fireplace and I felt Violet trying to contact me.
"Yes." I said.
"My Lady, Noah is on the way with it." she said, I smiled. I prepared myself for the knock at my door, I grabbed a book and had Rin bring me tea. No one knew we had left the Castle as we have our own entrance, For everything we do here I make sure I cover our tracks and not look suspicious. I sat there for ten minutes when a bang came to my door and Rin was yelling, she slammed open the door and had tears in her eyes.
"Rin! What the devil is going on?" I said she fell to her knees.
"My Lady... it's... it's the Prince." she said, my eyes widened and I ran towards the entrance. Our chambers were in shambles, everyone was freaking out and crying, praying to the gods and hoping it wasn't true.

I ran as fast as I could to the entrance and pushed passed people, I finally got passed everyone and was right in front.
"Let her grace through!" one of the soldiers said, they moved aside and there he was lying on the ground bloody.
"N-no..." I said as I ran over to him and fell to my knees.
"What happened?!" I yelled at Noah.
"W-we were attacked by three boars and we're fighting them but another snuck up on him and..." he said as he put his head down.
"L-Levi..." I said as I touched his cheek and flinched, I felt tears falling down my face.
"Levi!" I said as I shook his body.
"You can't leave me here! Wake up!" I yelled. Everyone was whimpering and crying behind me, I could hear praying and begging.
"You have to wake up!" I yelled, I looked at my hands covered in blood and screamed.
"Prince Levi has fallen!" a knight announced, everyone wept and cried out for their Prince. I got up holding his jacket to my eyes, tears still flowing from my eyes. I was being held up by Rin and a knight, I was putting on a pretty good performance. Suddenly a dark shadow flew by us from inside the castle, I turned around and watched it enter Levi's body.
"No!" I yelled, he had taken the bait and I telepathically told everyone to get ready.
"What is that?!" I yelled as the power from Leo was so strong it was blowing everyone back.
"My lady! Look!" Rin said as she pointed to Levi's body standing up.
"L-Levi." I said with a smile, I knew it wasn't him but I had to act like it.

Once everything calmed down he just stood there in silence, no one spoke or moved a muscle. I started walking towards him, this wasn't my plan but I felt like I had to do this.
"Levi." I said, he still didn't move, I got right in front of him.
"Levi... are you-" he grabs me by my throat, as expected Leo has taken full control over the clone.
"L-L..evi..." I stuttered as he choked me with one hand, I was off the ground and he lifted his head to look at me. His eyes were pure evil and made my spin shiver in fear, I never thought seeing Clone Levi like this would make me feel broken. I couldn't breathe at all it was like he was trying to kill me, I wasn't immortal yet but I could transfer my soul into another one of my clones and heal my body.
"You are my sisters' daughter aren't you?" he said, I couldn't speak.
"Oh, How I have waited for this moment." he said, he dropped me and picked me up over his shoulder.
"W-where are you taking me, Levi? What's going on with you?" I said, I thought he would kill me but instead, he is taking me inside.
