Annabelle's POV:
I wake up, my mind feels heavy, I cannot think straight, I find myself on a bed.
"Ah, I see the princess is awake." I watch Cathan walk inside the room, I observe that the room is very big, the bed is so soft, the mattress feels like feathers, the room is spacious, the curtains drape down by the huge windows, the room is kissed with red and brown from the walls to the covers to the furniture, it feels like heaven, to have my body feel no pain.
"Screw you barbie." I grunt.
"What is a barbie?" he looks at me with his risen eyebrow, like reaalllllyy nigga?
"Starved homo sapiens you moron." I pull up the sheets and close my eyes.
"Let me tell you something my love."he sits on the edge of the bed.
"Look, I get it, you are absolutely attractive, like my eyes literally melt when I see you, you define glory BUT this love business is not going to work out. You will address me by my name and you will not get close to me, I suggest you do not touch me and you are not allowed to look at me, I do not love you my heart belongs to another man." I speak incredibly fast as I sit on the bed trying to knock some sense into him.
"Where is that man? I could bring him here, and you could have your heart back." he speaks with so much confidence my jaw literally dropped like wuut?
"You know what? Bye,farewell, adieu, au revoir, ciao, adios, vale." I scram out of the bed.
"You walk out of here, you die. Without me by your side, they will hunt you down and they will kill you." his voice stops me from walking out of the door.
"I suppose you do not know,"
"Know what?"
"You are a Belmairi?"
"Is that a weave company?" I walk toward him, "Are you trying to say that I am like a shareholder in some weave company?"
"What is weave? To weave baskets?"
"Never mind barbie, tell me, what is a Belmairi?"
"I'd rather not tell, but for you to be a bystander, for you to see for yourself."
Belmair, Belmair, my mother used to tell me funny stories about the Belmair empire, how they ran away, all scattered in different areas, to save themselves.
"Belmair empire?"
"So you do know?"
"My mother used to tell me stories about them,"
"You are the only impure one left, you are dux."
"Dux?"
"The leader."
