Adopted into Evil

Chapter 4

(Ganondorf's P.O.V)

        "She's gone." I managed to say about 15 minutes after I had watched Anastazia leave my life. She had escaped through the window, and how she managed to survive the fall was a miracle. She was right, I was being severely weakened by her due to spending so much time on training. I haven't been able to focus on my real goal. To conquer Hyrule and take it for my own. My original plan was to have Ana be my second in command by the time my plan was set, but I guess that wasn't meant to be. She had another one of her stress/freak out attacks, something she rarely gets. They occurred about every two to six months. I would just leave her so she didn't turn into Cia and kill me. Though, this one was different. This time she left. I literally had nothing to say due to how much shock I was in right now.

        "Sire? Are you alright?" one of the soldiers who were loyal to me asked. "W-where is the girl?"

        "She's gone." I muttered softly. I could almost feel my heart shatter when she said those words. 'I don't want to be found', My mind right now was a jumbled mess, I couldn't think straight at all. What was I doing? Where was I? What happened.

        "Wait, the girl-"

        "STOP SAYING THAT!" I yelled in frustration. "Her name is Anastazia! If you are to refer to her, use her name, not girl."

        "Don't hurt me!" The solider raised his arms in defense as I glared at him. "B-but, didn't you want Anastazia gone for a long time?"

        I grabbed the man's collar and basically lifted him off of the ground, my face inches from his. He was sweating due to his overall fear of me. "We never speak of that." I then released the man and threw him across the room. His shoulder slammed against the stone wall. He groaned in pain, but I didn't care.

        "So? She was just your apprentice. That's all." Frank said while getting up. I went to the window and sighed heavily. The sharp edges were covered in Anastazia's blood and rain was dripping off as well.

        I looked at the ground and frowned. "She's my daughter. My biological daughter. That's the reason why I couldn't let her die 13 years ago. I had finaly found her after five years of constant regret."

        "B-but you-"

        "Frank, she was adopted at birth by the couple whom she called Mom and Dad. Though, it was a fate chosen by her birth mother, Nataliya. Nataliya was a Hylian woman, which is why Anastazia has blonde hair and light skin. Ana is half-Hylian and half-Gerudo. I had left Nataliya when my plans started to take shape. Though, when I found out that she had the child, I went to find her. I did find Nataliya, but no child with her. She said that she had given up Anastazia because she couldn't raise her on her own. I killed Nataliya immediately after. For three years I looked for my daughter, when I found her, I saw that the adoptive parents she lived with were walking towards their home, while Ana was left alone. I confronted them both and ended up murdering them as well.”

        "So, you want us to find-"

        I turned quickly to face the wounded head solider. "NO! Don't find her."

        "B-but, Sire, you-"

        "She told me that if I truly loved her then I wouldn't find and bring her back here." I said while running a hand through my hair, nervously.

        "You love her, don't you." Frank replied calmly with a smile. I went back to the window and looked at my reflection.

        "I do, but I have to focus on something other than her."
