I couldn't dare to sleep any longer knowing what he did.

I was out of my quarters and down past the castle in record time to where his ship crashed, but it was too late.

He slaughtered them all.

Every single guard member he killed.

My anger clouded my head as I stormed toward his ship. He had to have healed extraordinarily fast to have had the strength to kill my men so easily. My men had exceptional training, weapons, battle skills.

And just like that, they were dead.

When I arrived at the ship, I was shocked to find some of my own city's personnel tending to him. Two working women from the town, women I knew from when I was a child. They must've been willed by Kylo to come help after I sent the First Order nurses away.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" I yelled, the rage building from within.

Even though he was able to gain power back in his control of the Force, he was still weak. No matter how fast he might've started to heal, he would've needed a miracle to be completely fine today. This would be the perfect chance to get a leg up on him while he's still not fully healed. His injuries aside, he was apparently ready to go back to his former self.

His helmet was on now, along with most of his cloaks.

"You. You're back so soon," he said mechanically. I had only just entered the room, but of course he had already felt my presence. I held my tongue the day before in fear, but this was something else.

"You slaughtered them, my people. How could you!" I screamed, the anger seething from my voice as I approached him.

He then stopped me in my tracks as the Force paralyzed me. I'd never met someone so strong with the Force and I was truly no match against it.

Even though he was choosing to put on a facade that he wasn't still wounded, I knew damn well he was still in pain. He could put on a front as much as he wanted with me, I still knew the truth.

What he was not lacking however, was that innate strength, the kind Snoke took him for.

I fought with all my might against his paralyzation and still couldn't manage to break free. He could feel me trying though and seemed surprised at how much I was able to push back.

Confused with my abilities, he released me.

I took the long strides forward to face him head on, trying to hide my fear. He stood up wobbly, gripping his side, and faced me. He was massive now, towering above me and in fact very intimating like this, as the rumors had stated. My breath caught in my throat with him so close to me, eyes watching me behind his mask.

It was silent.

I stared into his dark mask in hope of seeing a trace of that face I saw the day before. I couldn't stop thinking about how absolutely captivating his looks were, even while wanting to kill him.

"You? kill me?" he responded sarcastically. "That's amusing."

He heard me?

"You just murdered dozens of our people. Do you think I want to bow at your feet?" I responded annoyed. Still absolutely confused at how he possibly heard my thoughts, he finally spoke a few minutes later.

"So, Princess of Chandrila. Would you like to tell me how that leadership came to be because I can't recall living with a queen when I was here."

His words cut like knives as I was suddenly reminded once again of what I grew up with and what I lost. Of course, he would never respect my reign. I took a few steadying deep breaths before I jabbed back.
