Sometimes I wish I could go back and change the fate of my Kingdom. I am the lone survivor. Sinbad has asked me to join him and his friends at The Sindria trading company. I agreed, not only because my home was destroyed or that I was going to be the face to represent my Kingdom. I agreed to come because I could finally leave. To see the world, but I never wanted to see my Kingdom fall. I wanted it to prosper to live on.
Can I help you not to hurt, anymore?
~Flashback~
I stood there watching as the palace crumbled to the ground. I saw my people running in panic, the flames consuming everything in it's path. The horror in front of me is nothing like I had ever seen. My mother had pushed me out of the palace just as the celling gave in.
"Mother!" I yelled running to the pile of rubble. I started digging through it to try and reach her. Someone wrapped their arms and pulled me away from the crumbling building as I cried and struggled. "No! Mother! Let me go! I have to go to her! Please!" Once we were a safe distance they fell to their knees with me in their arms. The pulled me close and let me cry into their chest as they tried to calm me down.
"Princess... please calm down. She's gone. She saved you." they said. I look up to see who pulled me away. The tears blurred my vision, but I saw the red hair and the turban. I knew it was Mystras. I wrap my arms around him and cried.
"Princess." came Sinbad's voice. I sniffled and looked at him. "You can still come with us. There is plenty of room at Sindria for you. That is if you still want to do business with us." said Sinbad. I wiped away stray tears and come back to my senses. Mystras and I stood up. I dusted off my (F/C) dress.
"Yes. I will still join you Sinbad." I say.
~End of flashback~
I stood looking out at the wide ocean from the ship. My hands rested on the railings as the wind blew through my hair. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Mystras walk over and stand by my side. We stood there for a bit, not saying anything. Not because it was awkward, but because we didn't need to say anything. It was nice. Just to stand there and it be silent, but I could tell that Mystras wanted to say something. I turn my head and look at him.
"Is there something you wanted to say?" I ask making him jump at the sound of my voice.
"Huh? Oh... uh..." he stammers while rubbing the back of his head. "I... uh... was wondering... if uh... you were okay now. You know after... everything that happened back there." he says blushing a bit. I smile sweetly at him then look out at the ocean again.
"I'll be fine after some time has passed." I say. "Our sister Kingdom will rebuild. My brother actually married the princess a couple years ago. So he moved to her Kingdom, I was suppose to take the Kingdom when I married. Although now my younger brother and his men will rebuild and repopulate." I explain.
"Wait... your younger brother married before you?" asks Mystras. I giggle and look at him again.
"In my Kingdom it's tradition for the youngest sibling to marry first. It shows that the oldest is more independent and can rule without another one's opinions interfering." I say.
"Oh. Wow that's something I've never heard before. It's interesting." he says and smiles at me. Now that I have a good look at him he's very handsome. I got lost in his beautiful eyes. "You know you're very pretty." he says causing me to blush myself.
"Thank you." I say as he leans in closer. It was as if something was pulling me closer to him. Something stronger than my mind. Our lips connected and it was like I had found the one thing I was missing. It felt like my eyes were even more open now then they have ever been. I never wanted it to stop, but alas our lungs could only hold out for so long without air. We pulled away and locked eyes.
"Wow... that was..."
"Amazing?" I ask. He smiles making me smile.
"Yeah. Amazing." he says.
Next: Soul it might be a lemon. I'm not sure yet.
