"You're what!?" Bella said angrily.
"You are not marrying her." Jack snapped harshly as he stepped forward, about to tackle the man. However, Maxon pulls him back.
"No! This is my fight." Maxon told him. Jack glared at both of them. You could tell he so badly wanted to kill the king.
"Guards, take her to her room." The king ordered the guards inside the room. (They took out the ones outside the room, not inside)
Once the guards left with her, Maxon spoke. "Guys, go take her home." He ordered. "And don't come back for me."
They left the room. Jack gave a cold glare towards the king and kept walking. Bella stopped and turned to Maxon.
"Be careful." She said and she ran out.
Once everyone left, Maxon turned to his father.
The king holds out his hand and a sword flies to it. Maxon flicked his wrist and a sword appears out of a bracelet he was wearing.
His father jumped off his throne and charged at Maxon. Maxon quickly slides to avoid this man's attack. They both did various techniques like the parry, circle parry, riposte, beat attack, remise, disengage, and other moves. The both did this for an hour or two. These two were extremely good at sword fighting.
Maxon got sliced by his father's sword. It wasn't bad, but it was still bleeding. He finally pins his father down.
"This ends now." With that, Maxon ran his sword straight through the king's heart, killing him instantly. He gets up, sweating and breathing heavy. He dropped the sword and went to walk out the door until a guard stopped him.
"Wait!" He yells. "You are now the new king. You are his son." The guard said.
Maxon knew the power he had now, but where was this guy's loyalty? He just gives him the throne? "I want the paper that says redheads and blondes can't live."
The guard looked at him. "Sir, there is no such paper. I was told your father only made that law so people would hate you."
Maxon was mad. "As the new king, I declare that all hair, skin, eye color, religion, exetra, shall be treated fairly."
The guard nodded and went to tell the others and declare it among the people.
A few days passed, and during that time, Maxon made the kingdom much better. Blondes and redheads came out of hiding, making his kingdom larger.
"Sir, you have visitors." One of the the guards said as he bowed.
"Let them in." He told the guard.
He did as he was told and opened the door.
"Maxon!" Bella yelled as she came running towards him for a hug.
"You did it!" Thomas exclaimed. Thomas looked around. "Where is Skylar?" He asked.
"I'm here." Skylar said as she walked in. Her hair was in a high bun and she was in a beautiful blue dress.
"Skylar, you look amazing!" Maxon said.
She smiles. "Thank you your highness. The life of a princess has treated me very kindly."
Maxon was shocked. "Oh yeah, that's right." He had forgotten she was a princess.
"Yesterday, a messenger came and told us that you were a princess here." Mia said.
Maxon smiled at Skylar. Something changed him that day...
