A Queen's Betrayal[RED QUEEN FANFIC]

Chapter Twelve|REACURRING ENEMIES

   "If your really thinking of leaving you need a disguise." Caiah suggested, she left me to myself and retreated into the back of her quaint home. She came back with and small mirror and a box of what looked to be make up supplies.
      "If Mare could become a Silver and graze under all of your guys' noses than you can become a red." She said with the kind of enthusiasm that scares me.  I was gestured to sit in one of the dining room chairs that had already been facing outward, she pulled a white bristled brush with a rose gold Handle from her box and coated it with an Olive colored powder. The pwder was applied all over my face, neck and my hands. She blended it evenly and then applied a creamy olive liquid in the same places.
     From there she didn't add much more after that. After finishing my makeup she continued by making a temporary hair dye out of coffee and hair wash. Which she applied to my platinum blonde hair.
         Once she finished all the the physical a things that had to deal with my features she gave me something of hers that I could wear, and we were off.
        "Okay, Eves'. You may not look completely like yourself but you might still be recognizable. So just walk fast and keep your head down." She said, she opened the door looked out and signaled me to follow. I did as she told me and kept my head down as she guided me through the streets.
       It didn't take long for us to reach out destination. We walk up a few steps and I watched as she struggled to push open the library door, which I guess was so old and broken that the hinges because stiff.
       After she finally got the door open she motioned for me to follow. I followed her through the library, and then I saw it, there for the taking it was there sitting on a shelve only about an inch off the floor. Which made a sound each time you walked acrossed it.
       A diary, hidden amongst books on the history of reds and silvers. The cover was torn and the pages had stains. I reached down and pi glad it up, and sure enough when I flipped through the first few pages I came acrossed one that read; 'Journel of Mare Barrow KEEP OUT!'.
       After reading its title I slipped it under my cloak and picked up a book on the history of Silvers and Reds. I handed it to Caiah and she checked it out for me, and we returned home before anyone could ask her about me. Once we got home i made up a lie abiur how tured i was, i washed off the makeup and i pretended to be sleeping until I could begin reading the journel with out be caught.

     'Entry One: Mavens plan didn't go the way he had planned, he didn't expect Cal would keep that little death metal bitch with him most of the time. He was never alone, and when he  was with me in the dungeons, busy doin-'.
     I was disgusted, this Entry was dated back to while I was unconscious after I took a bullet for that sick bastard. I couldn't believe I felt bad while he was off screwing her in the first place. I didnt finish the passage because i think i already know how it ended.
      I skipped over one entry which was only about Maven and his failed plan.
     I got to one and I caught glimpse at a few words;Metalic Bitch, Plan, Caiah.
    I read over the entry again it didn't read any different. Caiah who helped me, was a part of the plan to kill me.
     I got up as fast and as quiet as I could and I walked right out the front door. There was no one out, the streets were empty and dark. No light radiated off the buildings nearby, but light came from the palace. It took hours, I reached it by early morning hours. The sun has just begun to show its sunny rays. No trouble was given when I tried to enter. A market of clothing, fabric, food, and jewelry laid between me and him. I saw maids enter through a hidden service entrance. Traces of makeup lingered on my face so I followed them. Hoping I would reach my king quicker. And trust me I did.
    Only feet in front of me I saw him, no one was with him. I approached him slowly he turned to me, and didn't seem to recognize me. " Yes?What is it you want." The tone of his voice was cruel, he looked as if he hadn't slept in a week.
      "Your Majesty, I found this in the stilts, at the local library. I felt though you should see it." I held out the journel and he opened it and began to read. After a short time he turned red. Then he closed the book and waved to a guard. " Find Ms.Barrow and throw her in the dungeons. " he turned to me and said, "The lengthes she would go through to make me look bad. It couldn't have been me she slept with, I was- I was waiting by the bedside of the woman I love. The really woman I love. But why would you care you don't know me." He looked to the ground and I pulled down my good and looked up at him. The makeup was mostly gone now, my sweat had caused it to run down my face.
     "I do know you. And it hurt me to read this. It hurt me when you didn't stop me from leaving." I said. He looked at me, and then the journel dropped. It probably wasn't the best idea to reveal myself since I was kind of a wanted criminal? I think. But he needed to know.
       I stated to leave as quickly as I could. Then I heard it, what I had wanted to hear before.
        "Evie wait!" He yelled, I stopped but I refused to face him.
        "Y-yes"I said, tears streaming down my face.
        "I-I can't loose you again. I don't-I don't know what I would do to myself if I let you leave again." He said, I felt him right behind me, his breath made the hair on the back of my neck stick up.
   "Then why'd you let me go?"
"I was upset. I didn't think you'd actually leave though. I didn't think you loved me." His hands were around my waist and turned me to face him and then he asked me,
       "Will you marry me?"
Before I could awnser there was a loud noise screaming. We turned to see mare holding a knife to Elaines throat.
     "Elaine!" I screamed and ran towards her, but it was too late. Her lifeless body laid cold on the floor and then darkness.
