Fae Princess for a Luna

A New found Confidant and Friend

Chapter 2

Marynel's POV

As I lay asleep in a deep sleep envelope in the never ending darkness.I willed my self to gain my consciousness.And as I flutter my eyes open,light come in touch with my sight.Making things around me looks blurry at first.But after a few seconds it becomes clear.I look around wondering were I was.Then as my eyes lands on a very familiar looking young lady.My head rang the alarm,as fear creep from my insides.Ignoring my aching body I quickly sitted my self up and flinch pulling my self back at the farest corner till my back comes in touch with the wall.

I cringed as she tries to get the hold of me thinking that she will hurt me if I let her come near me.I hug my self in a fetal form.Creating a protective ball out of my self .

"Its alright,don't be afraid I won't harm you."Her soothing voice urge me to come close.Then she tried to hand me a bowl filled with food.

I feel safe as I heard her soft voice.I know that I must not thrust anyone anymore after what I have been through. But when I look at her in the eye.What I saw is the Kings facsimile in a woman's body.Then it dawned to me that she is the lost princess,I've been hearing about.My stomach get the best of me as I saw the food on her hand.My mouth waters as I smell the tempting aroma of it.I quickly snatch it out of her hands.Shoving a mouthful of it to fill my stomach. I can no longer remember when is the last time I have eaten properly.I chuck handful after handful of food in my mouth.

Whoa!....slow down you might choke yourself.She said grinning at me,standing up she tried to reach for me.As I let her get close,she tuck the stray hair at the back of my ear,that is covering my face.

There much better!she told me smoothing my hair to fix it.

I smile at her shyly wiping my mouth using the back of my hand.

Thank you for helping me!I told her with teary eyes filled with gratitude.

Even though you don't have too,clasping her hand and kissing it.I'm Marynel,I know who you were princess......I beg you please forgave my father for his betrayal.He wasn't like that before.He is a kind man but his thoughts are poisoned by Darius.He is the one behind all this chaos.He told my father that he can take over the reign of the entire kingdom in the Fae land.If he obey his bidding and be his slave.My father is blinded with thirst of power that even,me her own daughter.He trade me in exchange of getting the hold of everything he so long desired of having.

I confided everything I know to her filled with anguish,as tears rush freely from my eyes.I wipe my tears and continued telling her everything.

He sold me to Darius but when I refuse and plan my escape. They tortured me and lock me in the dungeon without food and water.For several days and at the fourth night.I fake my death,they brought my body to the forest and bury me there.I clawed my way out of that muddy grave they made for me.When I make it to the surface,I gather my remaining strength.I run through the woods and saw the smoke in your camp.I didn't hesitate to neared your camp.Hoping that someone would notice me and help me out.I let out a shriek when I heard something made a rustling at the bushes.I thought it was them.That's when,I saw that I'm almost there out in the clearing.I struggled my way out so that you could see me.......I broke down crying as the memories of my past came rushing through my head.

I hold on her hand pleading.....
You must take his life,please! end his atrocious deeds.It pains me to ask for it, for he is still my father a man who once loved me dearly,but he must be stop.

She put her hands on my shoulder patting it,then she pull me to a hug as I no longer can contain my self I poured all my sorrow in crying.

What have she done to you? She ask eyeing me.As she shared the pain that I felt at this moment.I fell asleep as she draw circles on my back,soothing my troubled soul.I fall asleep feeling the weight has been lift out of my chest.As I confest everything I know to her.

As the morning came......

I squinted my eyes as the rays of the morning light hit my face,blinding me.As I open my eye,I groan as I try to get up,pain haven't abate yet.I manage to hoist my self up slowly.

Taking off my clothes as soon as I got up,I tried cleansing my self with damp cloth.That I found in a nearby side table.As I busied my self cleaning the dried blood off my wounds. I feels someones hand on top of my shoulder.I tilt my head on the side frowning.But it quickly disappeared and replaced with a smile as I saw the Princess at my back.

Here let me help you with that! She said taking the damp cloth at my grasp.And dab it into my back,then she help me put back my clothes on.

Thank you....your grace!You've done much for me.I owe you my life,say a word an I will gladly obey thy will.To repay your good deed,I told her as my body shook in pain as I try to bow down in front of her to show respect and high regards toward her.But she stop me,

You don't owe me anything,I did what I could to help and I don't need you to return the favor. Rise and please call me by my name.She told me with a warm smile.

I smiled at her and nodded in response.

Come!let me help you walk outside,I know that you are not in good shape yet.But we need to head back on tract on our way to Aelven Palace.

I paled as I felt my blood is drained from my face as I heard her clearly.
I froze as I stood in front of her,trembling,as fear registered in my face.

Don't worry you are safe with us your father will not lay his hand on you anymore.I won't let him near you,I'll assign Dave to protect you.He is a friend don't worry,you are safe with him around.She told me to assure me my safety.I gave her a hesitant smile as we walk out of the tent.As she assist me on our way to prevent me from limping my way out.

As we made it from the outside,we walk past several tents,I frown as I felt strange as I get near at the door of the tent.I feel tingling sensation runs through my body and something unknown is pulling me.Then my heart begins to thud, loud then it becomes faster as the princess pull the opening of the tent where Dave were resting.
