Found Frozen

“Oh, Euphoria. Were so happy to see you.” The woman who called herself my mother cried hugging me tight.

I stiffened, looking at Daniel. He glared darkly at them with his nose flared.

“We’ve come to get you once we heard new that you were back.” She said. 

“Oh, so you were waiting for me to return after you sent me away?” I snapped, shoving her off of me with more force than I intended. She looked at me pained. 

“We never sent you away, honey you were taken.” She said softly.

Daniel’s mother scoffed. “That’s a lie!”

“How dare you?!” The darkdog queen snarled. “My daughter was taken from me!”

“No she wasn’t! We had made arrangements that you didn’t agree with and two nights later she was gone. A year later I hear from a group of maids that she was handed off to Sam to take to North America and away from her home! Now, I may not know if she was in any sort of danger there but you forget that the man you gave her to was married one of my head maids, one who took care of my son!” She shouted. 

“You have no idea what we went through!” The King of darkdogs yelled.

“Then why didn’t you come see me?” I interjected. They froze, and looked at me with wide eyes.

“We...we had a kingdom to keep together. If we had left they could have taken us over-”

“So a kingdom is more important than your daughter.” I said.

They froze for a minute before saying: “We came to retrieve you from these brainwashing people. We have an arrangement.”

“What arrangement?” I asked.

“We found a nice young man, a young Duke, and-”

“No.”

“What do you mean no?” My mother asked.

“I’m marrying Daniel.” I said as he wrapped his arm protectively around me.

“Without our blessing?”

“You gave your blessing the day you agreed with the arrangement.” Daniel’s mother snapped.

“I’m staying here, and I’m marrying Daniel.” I said firmly.

Her eyes flashed bright blue, and she growled deeply. “Euphoria, if you don’t leave with us right now, there will be trouble.”

“I’m staying. You can’t take me away from Daniel.”

“You pathetic weakling!” She screamed in my face. Daniel snatched me away and growled lowly and fiercely. 

“You are not welcome here. Leave. Now.” He commanded darkly. 

She snarled at him and left, the guard hurriedly opening the door as she left shaking. My biological father stood there, then looked at us. “I apologize for my wife’s behavior. We really thought…” He shook his head sadly. “If you need anything Euphoria, I’m here. And I give you my blessing.” He gently pat Daniel’s shoulder then exited out the large doors.

I felt myself trembling. I was angry, frustrated, upset, and felt abandoned. By my own flesh and blood. 

“E-”

“No.” I said cutting him off. I hurried out of the castle and out to the beach. I took off the stupid sandals I had on.

I told my parents no. I told them no to whatever man they wanted me to marry. I didn’t even live with them. My mother, who I had longed to see my whole life, turned out to be a cold hearted bitch. They must hate me now.
