Half a heart, half a crown

T H R E E

I woke up to a figure standing with his hand clasped together and his back faced me.

Just one glance.

Just one glance, I already knew who he was.

Antonio Davinsky, King of Emercidin.

I guessed he noticed that I was awake.

He turned around.

His face as firm and his voice as deep as the ocean.

"You're awake." He said.

Just hearing him, sent chills and shiver all over my body.

I opened my mouth and shut, I can't speak.

Instead I nodded.

He gave me an approving looks and walked out of the dungeons.

Why was he here so early?

To check on me so I wouldn't run away?

How could I escape when chains tied all over my body to this steel hard chair?

I couldn't.

"Get up!" I snapped out of my thoughts to faced two big figure untying me from the chair but left my wrists tied.

"Where-wait---" I was cut off by them too.

"Just shut your mouth and follow us, this is an order."

So I did.

They walked me to a very dark place.

4 big walls surrounded around me and the room is as dark as night.

They pushed me into a cage.

A very big cage just for me.

Rows of steel appeared on the cage so I could see what's going on.

The prison is locked.

The two men left.

I was here all alone, in the dark, in the cold.

Luckily I was still in my armor suit, including my helmet.

I sighed.

I wonder how my parents accepted the fact that I was caught.

I wonder if the Ameragonia doing well.

How's my father health?

How's my mother health?

I am afraid.

Really afraid I couldn't go back.

Back to Ameragonia.

I hugged my knees to myself, hoping this would all just go away.

Away.

Far away.

I let myself out.

Cryings escaped my lips and my voice bounces between the 4 massive walls.

Tears and tears flowed down my cheek and absorbed into my golden helmet.

I need to think of a way.

A way to escape this.

"Act like a lady, Magnificent." Said my mother.

"Why should I be lady-like, when I can lure men to their death." I said bitting another food from my plate.

My father and my brother laughed.

"She's still young." Said my father.

"Let her be." Said my brother.

All of us laughed as if there's no tomorrow.

I can.

And I could lure men to their death.

"I won't make you disappointed." I whispered.
