"Are you scared Calore?" I growl.
Maven let me use the traitor brother as a toy to get my anger out.
"I won't hurt you," He says weakly.
"Whatever,"
I pounce at him, grabbing hair. I bash his nose against my knee. Metallic blood spurting from his nose. He grunts. "Mare," He groans.
I stop to look at the man on the floor in front of me. He looks like he's dead.
"Cal," I breathe. How dare you do this to me Cal...
I kneel down to him to see those bronze eyes.
"Mare?" I hear a shout from behind me. I quickly get up.
"Mavey!" I smile. Cal winces at the nickname.
"How are the kids?" I ask, embracing him.
"They are just sleeping right now."
"Without one of us?!" I try to storm past him.
"Your sister is with them, Mare. It's okay." He holds me tightly.
We walk out, leaving the guards to take care of Cal.

"Queen Mare, King Maven had asked to see you in 30 minutes on the Balcony," A maid comes into the room.
"Can you please stay with the children while I get ready?" I ask.
"I'll take them to the nursery!" She smiles and wheels the kids out in their bassinets.

I start a hot shower and light a lavender candle. I take a good 20 minutes in the shower. It's nice for some quiet time. When I get out I wrap a towel around my hair and dry of my body.
I see a gorgeous dress already put out for me. Per Maven's request, obviously.
It has a big slit in the leg, and the bodice has a plunging neck line. It's a beautiful blood red dress with Black rose's at the bottom. Orange jewels surround the bodice.

I put the finishing touches on my outfit, like silver earrings and bracelets. I don't wear a necklace though. I slip on strappy heels and walk out.

"Maven?" I ask. It's dark out, I can't see. My sparks light up the balcony.
"MAVEN!" I screech. He has slits on his wrists and his crown is smashed. "GUARD?!" I scream. I hold the cuts at his wrists to stop the bleeding. "Mavey, Mavey, please stay with me. Mavey!!" I'm sobbing at this point.
"GUARDS!!" One finally comes rushing in and easily picks Maven up. He almost sprints to the infirmary. Guards make sure I don't see anything, and they help me get Maven's blood off my hands.

"Here Queen Mare, Maven was going to give this to you, but we don't know what is going to happen to him, so I thought this would be kind." A maid hands me a beautiful gold necklace. It's a locket. Two photos are in the inside. One with the whole family. And one with just us. Mavey... How could you?

"My Queen? You can visit him now," A nurse walks out. I jump up and go right to Maven. "M-Mare," Maven says. His voice sounds sick and raspy. "Mavey, why?" I ask, taking his hand.
He stays silent. "Maven, I need you. I love you and I can't have you leaving me," I kiss his forehead. He still stays silent. "Would you want Val and Thomas to grow up without a father? Would you want the kingdom to force me to re-marry?" I cry. Maven winces and turns to me. "I'm not good enough for you Mare! You still love my brother..." He has tears in is eyes.
"Maven, I'm not going to lie. At one point in time, I did love Cal. But, I can never look that man in the eyes again." I pause a moment.
"I can't imagine myself, without the love of my life," I kiss him as tears roll down my face. He smiles at me and I let him rest. He deserves it.

This is shorter then it should be, but this Friday I'll be out of school and I have to take a ten hour car ride, so I can write more soon
