Fire VS Ice

Life in the spot light

  All my life I thought that I would be in the same hidden basement every night but now tonight will be diffrent. Tonight I will get to experience a night, and every night from now on ,without having to fear being carried into that basement binded from my arms and legs. Or having to fear being tied down to a bed only to be submitted to torcher. Tonight is the night where I can be happy without a shed of fear.

  I looked myself over at the full length mirror and was utterly shocked by my appearance. Never in a million years would I have thought that I would be wearing a ball gown and heels but then again never in a millions years would I have thought that I would be in this situation at all. I smiled at my reflection and heard a knock at the door.

"Come in", I yell out.

  My mother walks in wearing a beautiful white mermaid dress. The dress is emellished with royal blue jems that trail down in one side of the dress all the way down and finishes the design wth a beautiful swirl. Her hair is clipped back to accomadate the beautiful silver crown with blue jems to math her outfit.

  " Oh my! You look absolutely  breathtaking sweet heart. I gotta remeber to give Alex and the other maids a bonus check for their help." I smile as I felt my face beginning to heat up. I knew I must be blushin like crazy by now. My mother walks towards me and took me by the hand making me spin slowly for her to examin the fit of my dress.

  " Wow you truly are a jem to die for. You may end up having a bunch of suitors on your hands", I smile and roll my eyes.

  "Well those suitors will have a lot of work cut out for the if they want me to even acknowledge them. You know how I don't have any intrests in guys, much less dating. Right now I just want to be happy with my family." I respond as I hug my mother.

  " Okay well lets go and head down then." she puts out her hand as if she was my escort and we laugh as we walk out the room an towards my new life.

 
Soul Protector's POV:

  I've got to admit this castle might just be more amazing then mine.

  I look around the ballroom to see if my reched step-brother has arrived yet. I was never fond of that mutt and I will never agree to my mother marrying the king of the broken souls. Even if he was half a vampire, he was also half a demon and his issues are quite weird as can be. Even if my step-brother is 17  and is  half a year older than me he will not take my place as future king. He has his own throne to be in when he is of age.

" I see you are quite negative today my brother." I turn around to see my step- brother stand before me.

" What do yo want Davian?" I spit back with irritation.

"Just awaiting the princess' arrival. I've heard that she is quite a treasure."  He says with a mischevious smile. With that comment I was left fuming with pure anger. I never understood how he was such an expert of getting under my skin but yet again he is half a demon.

I clenched my teeth as he walked away laughing to the table to serve himself a cup of blood from the fountain. I need to stay clear of that mutt and that fountain. I am in no means going to fall back to my bad habits. That fountain contained blood contaminated with alcohol and I have no desire of waking up in a bad mood.

My attention is caught by the small orchestra's playing.

  The announcer comes to view and my stomach seems to be jittering from nerves. I haven't seen the beautiful princess since the first time I met her. She was wounded, bleeding, and unconscious. Yet despite her condition her face was serene and beautiful. I had starred at her that day as they took out some of my blood into a little blood bag and pumped it into her veins. I had never seen such a beautiful girl in my life. I knew the consequences of sharing my blood with her would do but when I saw her fighting for her life on that bed it didn't matter.  I would give my life for her.

  " The Royal Guardians have arrived." The princess' guardian family descended the stairs. I watch as the little girl clings to her mother and her husband wraps an arm around her waist as the little boy enjoys the attention. Oh yes, that boy is going to be a heart breaker.

  I smile as I see the happy family mingle with what seems to be old friends. Their personalities seem quite charming. I wonder if Sappirre has inherited that trait throughout her time with them.

" The Royal Highness has arrived." The queen walks down with elegance and power radiating in every step."Queen Elizabeth the announcer states.

"And now for the princess we have all waited so long to see. Princess Sappirre."

I turn around to see the most beautiful girl that I have ever seen stand at the top of the staircase. Of course I have seen her before but never like this. The sight was breathtaking as I took in her glowing appearance. She radiated beauty in a renissance based dress, a style in which no one in the kingdom would have ever be abe to compare to. The dress was strapless yet had unattatched long sleeves made up of a beautiful dark yet radiating shade of red silk.

  The beautiful silky red dress fitted her torso so elegantly and I noticed it had a corsette that was tied with sparkling sapphirre lace that met together at her lower back. The magnificent lace was tied with beautiful loops into a large bow in which the bow's ends met the floor and layed over the beautifully patterned dress. The hoop under the dress must be a large one but it only exentuated he skirt evermore. The skirt was the same shade of red as the corsette's ,obviously, yet it had mesmerizing sappirre patterns and swirls.

  she stood tall with an era radiating respect, elegance, and beauty as she made her way down the steps. She seemed to enjoy the sight of the magnificent staircase which I too believe it to be captivating but not as breathtaking as the beauty admiring it. She walked down with a beautiful shy smile and head held high giving a clear view of a magnificent sappirre stone that took the form of a tear drop just underneath her collarbone.

   I loved to take in every last detail of such a precious gem as her. Her flawless milky white skin with plump pink lips and her natural rosy cheeks. Her shiny blonde hair was pinned up into braided design of a rose in the back with loose curls one either side of her beautiful face with a blood red tiarra that had a sappirre stoned tear drop in the middle as well. Her eyes where hard to determine due to its unfathomable color. It seemed like a clear grey one second and the next it looked like sappirre specks swirled within the grey irises. I hadn't realized I had held my breath since her entrance until my thoughts where interrupted once again by the the irritating mutt.

"It seems that the reports saying of the princess being beautiful have not brung her any justice she is just breath taking. It seems you and I think the same due to your endless ogling." He took another shot as he stares at my Sappirre with eyes of lust.

Without any hestation I grab Davian and rush to a secluded area. I push his pathetic being against a wall by his collar. " If you ever so much as lay a hand on her I will rip you apart limb by limb so I suggest you keep your digusting gaze else were. She isn't on of your little toys! Need I remind you that she is the princess and future queen of every mystical race in the world!"

  Davian just smirks and raises his hands fanning defeat," Okay then sheesh. I take it you are fond of the little princess but I should say she has you in the palm of her hands but I should remind you that she will not only have one mate but three possible mates. So I wouldn't get to cozy with the princess there are two other guys that you will have to fight to win her love and one of them might just be me so be ready little brother," and with that last spiteful remark he walks away with a red glow in his eyes. That red glow is something that only the broken souls have. The vampire race have a glow but the glows color radiates based on the color of their iris which occurs in ones change of state involving strong emotions.

  
  I completely forgot how the royal Raine line have mate suitors instead of the common mate bind. Based on what I had heard the three suitors each will receive a mark upon two weeks of meeting her. I have never seen what the marks are supposed to look like but I do know that I shouldn't keep my hopes up because depite my endless affection for her, I might not be one of her mates and if I am then there is still the possiility of being rejected. The rejection of a mate is worse than a loss. It is like the loss of ones being.

All I know is that if I am one of her suitors then I will fight to win her love no matter the sacrifices.

So let the games begin boys.
