It Wasn't Supposed To Be This Way

Second Part

"Marcus!" My mothers Favourite handmaiden, Carmen came rushing into my room. "Marcus your father call upon you! He says it is urgent! He is in his office"

"Thank you, Carmen I will go straight there" I put down the book that I have recently started to read and Rushed out of my room, To my fathers office.

I got to the big doors and knocked twice. Hearing his voice from inside roughly say come in I did so and opened the door.

"May I know what is so urgent father?" I ask. Looking at my feet not wanting too look straight at him for seeing my eyes me may get mad.

"Marcus you are going to the human realm as a treaty between our world and theirs. You will do as the king says. You are of his property. You are no longer the heir to this throne. No longer My son. You are no longer a prince" He says in his rough voice, it getting colder as the words were said. I could hear the hatred in his voice.

I inhaled heavily, willing myself to not shed a tear.

"Will I be able to bring any of my belongings?" I asked, My voice cracking.

"you may bring anything that is not of the castle, or of value in the markets. They will also be here shortly" He replied.

I nodded. "I will miss you Father, as I will miss my siblings and all in the castle" I told him speaking of only the truth.

"I am no longer your father, They are no longer your siblings. You are no longer apart of this castle. Leave my presence!" The last word was booming and anger filled.

I lowered my head in a bow and rushed out of the room, to my quarters.

In my quarters, sitting on my bed was Carmen, and seeing her knowing I shall never see her again after this I shed a tear.

Carmen rushed towards me and embraced me. She was the only motherly thing I had, as she had been taking care of me since I was an infant. I sobbed and all she did was comfort me.

"Child? What did he do?" She asked while lightly holding my cheeks and making me look at her.

"He is giving me to the king or the human realm as a treaty. I am no longer of royal family. I had known since I was young that he did not want me but I never thought he would give me away" I smiled sadly at her, as I was no longer sobbing. "Do not worry, as I will always remember you" I caressed her cheek and kissed her forehead.

"I will miss you with all my hart, aziazor" She hugged me one last time and bid me a good life, while leaving my room.

I had stood n the same spot, thinking all of what happened over, until I was able to accept it.

Father said nothing of the castle or value on the market. I walked over to one of the shelves and grabbed the book Carmen had given me, she had said it was my mothers, I had also grabbed the only non fancy thing in the closet along with a picture of my mother. The picture of her Smiling, The picture that father did not know of. I had put the picture in the book to make sure it did not bend as well as wrapping the book in the garment.

I then walk out after looking around the room. Hidden some where in this room was a picture of my mother another Picture that my father did not know of. If he found it, I would wish to not know what would happen.

I walked to the front doors of the castle, standing there in all there glory were my siblings. Anderson was the oldest after me of only one year younger, being sixteen. Clarissa was next she was a spitting image of her mother, and being two years younger than Anderson, at fourteen. Jared was just small being eleven. The youngest Samuel, he is the most precious of all, being five, he was so innocent. There they all stood.

"Anderson may I ask as to why you are all here?" I asked

"Carmen had come to my room to clean with tears in her eyes, and we know Carmen does not cry. I had asked her to why she was crying, She had told me that father planes to send you out of the realm. We had come to bid you farewell." Anderson answered, with his eyes glossy.

"Do not cry brother mine. If he wishes to send me away then let it be done" I told Anderson.

"I do not see to why you must leave. We almost never see you as it is. Why must you leave?"Clarissa Exclaimed.

"It is His wish and that i will abide by. He is king, and what he wishes is to be done." I said. I wanted to explain to then, the whole thing. But I knew it would not be the best idea.

A black SUV pulled up in front of the castle, I wishes my siblings a good life, told them that they should not be mad at there father and walked to the car.

The driver had stepped out and came up to me and asked, "are you Marcus?"

"yes, that is me" I answered and smiled.

He then opened the door and motioned me in.

I turned and smiled at the siblings that I would miss, and slipped in to the car. He closed the door and walked around to the drivers side got in and started to drive.
