Heart Vacancy

Chapter 2

After awhile Cynthia finally calmed down once she stepped outside of the castle. She was escorted out by the guards taking her to the ship. People of Noctovia watched as there princess leave. No eye contact was made between Cynthia and her people, she was just too sad to look at them. She held her head down the whole time as she was walking. All she could think about was how she will never be considered a princess ever again. Then a question came to mind. What will she expect in this new planet called Haven? How will it affect her? The thought of marrying a prince disgusted her and not mention she has no idea who he was. All the princes that have tried to win her over in the past were pathetic. Cynthia just knew by the look of them they were not the one even if they hadn't spoken a word. It's strange but she has a feeling she will know when the time is right. Cynthia was not looking forward to going to this planet Haven for a prince. It was ridiculous to be given a task to win a prince that she doesn't know about. Fighting for anything is a princes duty not the other way around.

Suddenly out of the corner of her eye she saw a small man run to her, it was Felix. Great now what does he want? To rub in her face that he was right all these years that something bad will happen to her if she didn't act like a kid? Cynthia rolled her eyes when Felix screamed "Wait!". Everyone turned to face the exhausted Felix. Heavy breaths escaped from Felix's mouth until he finally stood upright.

"As a gift from the queen and king I shall travel with you Cynthia."

Cynthia didn't no whether or not he was joking or being serious. Felix, the messenger,traveling with Cynthia? They never liked each other and he wants to travel with her? God this is going to be a long ride.

"Thanks but no thanks. I'll do fine just by myself. And I do not want any "generous" gifts from those fuckers." She said hastily.

Felix was appalled by her language. Although she may not be a princess anymore Felix still respects the king and queen.

"No need to speak with such language Cynthia. Now I have to go with you on your journey." He said with a smug grin plastered on his face.

Cynthia shot back a death glare by his smugness.

"Of all people why did they pick you to come with me? Are they trying to make my life even more miserable?" She asked.

Felix chuckled by the thought but he just shook his head. His hand reached into his pocket and held up for Cynthia to see her royal necklace. There was nothing special about the the necklace it just had a golden ring attached to the long gold chain. The ring glistened from the sunlight showing the engraved letters of a different language. Cynthia never knew what it meant and never really care to know.

"This ring is the proof that you need to show that you have been a princess before. The language engraved on it is something that I can only read. Besides if you were to go to Haven there must be two guest from a kingdom." Felix said.

As much she hated to go with Felix anywhere he does know a lot more then her so he might come of use. Cynthia looked at him for a long a moment until she finally gave up and let him go with her. The guards pushed Cynthia and Felix closer to the ship. As they entered the ship Cynthia took one last look at the castle in her seat, knowing that she will never come back. A hand touched Cynthia's shoulder,she looked to see it was Felix's hand, sympathy for Cynthia filled his eyes. But she didn't want his pity so she shrugged him off.

"Come on little girl." A guard snapped. Cynthia crossed her arms under her breast and gave a scowl at the guard. How dare he talk to her that way. Even though she is not the princess anymore, he shouldn't treat her rudely.

"You have no right to talk to me that way you over grown fat ass." She snapped. The guard was unmoved and just laughed at her.

"I can talk any way I want. You have no orders for bossing me around."
