Princess Amara

Chapter Eight

"I need to protect you" he stated firmly, making my large eyes freeze on his face. 

This situation de-escalated so quickly, "pro... tect me?" 

"Yes. You are in danger, you are my responsibility Princess, let me protect you" he stated. 

Now I'm just full on and completely confused. 

"What are you-" the doors that we were standing no further than five feet from flew open at that second and what I saw completely twisted my world. 

In walked in two very beautiful women. 

The first one was dressed in a bright yellow dress that floated around her. Her deathly pale skin stuck out against her dark black hair. But thats not what made you pause on her. It was her eyes. 

They were not a deep brown but a strange murky black and white that made staring at her uncomfortable. Made something in your conscious yell at you to stand back. 

To run. 

Kronus placed his body over top of mine like a shield as he easily maneuvered us out of their way. 

But I couldn't move, not truly, because what I was staring at was something I'd never thought I'd ever see. 

There was a woman with her. She was probably a few inches shorter than me. Her skin a lot lighter than mine, but not as pale as Aria and Andrea's. 

Her hair was a light brown color, reminding me of the people near the southern border of Traca, in Carvas. As her nervous eyes shifted around and fell on mine something struck me like a brick. 

They were the exact same color as Aria, Andrea, and I's eyes. That bright vibrant green that only royals of the White Kingdom have. 

My heart dropped. 

I clung to Kronus unconsciously as I looked at her trying to maneuver around his large body to look at her. 

She was in a black dress that came to her calf muscle. 

Kronus spit something harshly in a different language. 

The two women continued striding into the middle of the dance floor where Aria and Andrea were currently taking the middle of with Father.
