It was already late when the party ended, and I couldn't sleep... I found myself wandering around the quiet dark Corridors into a small balcony that gave me the beautiful view of the ocean..... With the reflection of the night sky
Too bad.... Tonight there were no stars
But there was Julian
My mind wandered....
My prince.... Julian
I had left him in bed... Sleeping.... Soundly.... His fair hair spread on the pillow...
He was so beautiful.... Devilishly handsomeI wanted to get back to him and be in his arms
I was on my way back when I stopped .... noticing that two guards were dragging a sleeping Julian out of our room
I started running towards them yelling for them to stop
I felt an ache in my chest.... Julian was limp
He didn't move
The guards looked like they didn't hear me scream or shout for them to stopI was suddenly ambushed by another party that came out of the shadows
They held me in place and I struggled to get free
I yelled and screamed hoping the others would hear me and get ready to fight
But none of the other doors openedI was alone
"if you would calm down for once maybe we can talk things through about the where abouts of your "lovely" friends... If I might say...... Zara?? "
I heard a very familiar voice saying behind me only this time it wasn't music to my ears not that it had ever been.... It had been merrier but now it was full of menace and annoyance
The guards let go of me and I turned around to face the king
"you hypocrite! " I snarled
"pardon me... Are we sharing titles now?? ....you and your little company pay a visit to my beautiful castle and pretend to be people you are not.. Well at least them.... YOU... the Rudaeshan Princess??... Please"" we all knew if you knew who I really was you would add me to your prize of collections after the war.... Am I right?? "
He shook his head sorrowfully and clicked his tongue
"a prize of collections??...... That's an understatement ..you are something far better than that "
"where are my friends "
"in the dungeons where they belong"
"what do you plan to do with them?? "
" depends on you?? "
"what do you plan to do with me?? "He smiled at me
"a lot my dear..... A lot"It was after we were back to his court and he dismissed his guards that I wondered why he was so composed around me and confident.... Wasn't he aware of what I was capable of yet
I watched him closely finding an opening... I would be wrong to underestimate him
I haven't seen him fighting before... So I had to be careful and not make any judgement or whatsoever
.
"I know what you are trying to do" he spoke with his back towards meI ignored him "so you are one with the dark Lord I suppose " I said
He kept quiet as he poured himself a drink
He started to annoy me... He seemed to enjoy this more than I did" so you lied to us when you said you had dispatched your armies to aid the others in the fight "
"oh I didn't lie about that" he said turning around to face me "only that it wasn't to fight against the dark Lord.... But FOR the Dark Lord" he took a sip and looked at me triumphantly
I fought the urge to walk over to him and run my sword through him only then did I notice that I didn't have the sword with me... Sahalia's sword... The only sword that can kill the Dark Lord
"I do have all your weapons.... And.... Not to mention your very beautiful sword"
I bit my tongue... I would get it once I kill his ugly self
"why the Dark Lord?? " I asked
Trying to see if there was away we could reason... He hasn't killed any of us yet nor delivered us to the dark Lord.... There was a slight chance we could change the tablesHope Zara..... HOPE
"Because... I AM the Dark Lord"
