The Shadows of Royalty

When the Sun goes Down

"Rachel!" He roared as I casually walked away. Such a hormonal prince....and bipolar. I hum to myself as a put back the daggers into place. I could see Liam death glaring Xander who was fuming being me.

I turn around; ignoring the fact that Alex was in front of me and walked away. Someone suddenly, grabs my wrist and yanks me back, to their chest.

" Rachel." His emerald eyes bore I to mine, that I almost got scared that he burned my soul.

" What!" I hiss.

" Why are you doing this?"

"Are you that stupid?" I yell as I try squirming away from his death grip.

" What are you talking about?" He raises a brow.

" If you don't get your shit together your highness, I'm going to punch you. "

He cocks a brow. "Really, I'd like to see you try Miss Avery."

I glance to my right and left, to make sure everyone was watching.

I pouted my lip as I made my eyes become glassy. Alex's gaze softened as his grip on my hand eased.

"Babe, don-" He tries to comfort me, by trailing his thumb onto my cheek.

His sentence is caught mid-way when I snatched my wrist from his grip, and punched him into his jaw.

Oh shit, I just punched the crowned prince in the jaw.

"Well he deserved it!" Yelled Aurora in my head. I didn't even know why I'm calling this" talking shit" in my brain by it's name.

A gasp sounds, and I know that it's from Ashley. Liam just stands there with a big smirk lingering onto his lips.

I turn back around to face Xander. And oh boy, his emerald eyes darkened as he rubbed his clenched jaw, where I just punched him.

The price hated to be hit. I remember this guard challenged the Prince to fight. So they did, but once the guard did some damage, the prince suddenly turned into this killing machine. He literally slaughtered the guard in front of everyone with no mercy. I gulped as his eyes boar into mine. He just stood there. I felt like he was going to possess my soul. Tension hung in the air as his eyes were till locked with mine.

" Ring the bells of holly jelly, fallalal flalal flallal lalfalla!" Aurora bombarded with her horrid screeching singing.

" What the hell are you doing?" I hiss inside my head

"Oh, well I'm just trying to light up the situation, you know."

" It's a Christmas song, and it's not even Christmas ! Plus, the lyrics are all wrong" I point out as I mentally roll my eyes.

" Well, I can care less."

" Can you do me a favor, Aurora?" I ask

" Yup, sure anything for you girlfriend!" She sings with her horrible singing skills. I cringe in disgust.

" Shut the fuck up."

I mentally block her as I snap back to reality. I was truly annoyed because she pops up in the worst moments ever. I am a nice person in general, but today wasn't my day. Let me even tell you this, I'm not even violent. Ironic that I say this while standing in front the person I just punched.

His face didn't betray him. He snatched my wrist as he pulled me along outside to where no one was. " You want to take this outside?" I spat. He doesn't reply but pushes me in front of him. We were at the sides of the garden, next to the castle wall. He suddenly stops as he pushes me against the wall.
