Chapter 3

I tried enjoying my walk along the palace halls.

It was hard though, especially since the guards would man handle you all the way to the king.

And who knows what the king would do?..

All I know is that this is our end, I didn't want to accept it but that's life I guess..

Life is unfair- as a human living within these creatures.

Life is unfair because they had advantages, they had powers.

Life is unfair because I am just a mere human, living amongst them. With no powers, no advantages just an easy target.

Life is unfair, this is the fourth time I'll be saying 'Life is unfair' Oh look! Now it's the fifth. I should probably say 'Life was unfair,' because I'll be losing it as soon as I'll be known amongst the other creatures.

The only dead, unidentified creature atleast I'm gonna die special?..

The guard finally brought us to a hallway that had only one way, no left turns, no right, but at the end of the hall there stood the biggest, shiniest, door.

There were two guards at each side of the doors.

The man in royalty was walking ahead, probably excited for our death, while the two guards held Eric and I each.

"Fuck," I mumbled while the guard holding me continued his shoving. I dug my foot in the floor hoping to delay but it only caused the back of my head to touch the chest of the guard.

The pain seemed to all crash on me full force.

I was more than ready to die if I had to live with healing my wounds.

My eyes started to get droopy, and my head hurts too much, the wounds were throbbing. Maybe the spell of the drink started wearing off.

Oh well..

The guard halted to a stop, right at front of the humongous palace doors.

I just stared as the floor while the guards opened the huge doors and the guards walking in.

Looking up, I saw the most handsome man sitting on the throne. His black hair was sleeked a bit, his cheekbones were high and his jaw line.

God damn.

My eyes travelled over to his lips, his pink full lips then finally, his eyes. They were so mesmerizing, it was a bit of a green from what I can see from my spot, he had an athletic build no doubt if he stood up he would be incredibly tall, he would tower all over the others.

"My king," I suddenly snapped back to reality and realized that the man was the one who spoke while bowing, the guards bowed as well, which was awkward since they were still holding us then stood up.

Atleast I was gonna die in the hands of one sexy man.

The king stood up, in a flash he was at front of us all the while I was staring at him. How'd he.. what? "Let go of her," The king suddenly growled out. his voice, hot damn- Charlotte, snap out of it.

"But, my king wh-" The man was about to start talking.

"This is the second time you've questioned my orders, brother." The king replied in a hard voice.

The guard let go of me and I waited for my body to hit the ground but the king grabbed me and wrapped his arms around me and whispering "Mate,"

As soon as he did sparks was felt, not just weak ones, but it was strong as if someone literally zapped me. I felt a palpable sense of relief while the king was holding me before realizatitaion hit me and I started pushing at his chest.
