Two Natures

Prologue

" No!", They never listen to me. These ignorant board members. "We are going in tonight and that's final!"

"Don't you get it, we are outnumbered, more ways than one!" I said over again. "I will not watch as my people get killed because of some ignorant fools!" I was angry, very angry. I slammed my hands on the conference table jerking my body to stand firm.

"Princess, please keep calm." My personal bodyguard placed his hand on my shoulder.

I shrugged his hand off my shoulder with a steady jerk.

"Daughter, please sit down, we will go out as planned!" My father, the king said, "And would you stop embarrassing me!"

I sat back down angrier but I didn't want to tarnish the King's precious reputation.

This time I was done talking, this time I'll let them do what the hell they wanted.

"We will go at war tonight, when the lights go out. We will take them from the four corners of their camps, they won't see us coming"

I scoffed too loud for my liking.

"Do you have something to say princess?" I looked at the man who said it- my father's right hand man.

I rolled my eyes, " No I don't Mr Kitts, please carry on." They wouldn't let me get a word in anyways.

I sighed. It was almost time to go on war and we were outnumbered but they didn't even cared, they just wanted blood shed.

" Mira,"

"Yes Chronx," My bodyguard and I have a great bond too great sometimes, he was assigned to me from a young age. I smiled as I remembered the fun times we had.

"If anything happens me, just know that I love you very much." Chronx wasn't one that speaks emotional but when he does he means every word he says.

I turned to look at him, "Chronx nothing is gonna happen to you, I'll make sure of it" I kissed his temple for assurance.

This moment was to be cherished, this moment was to be unforgettable because little did I know these little moments would be the anchor I'll hold onto.

We were all being slaughtered like our lives meant nothing, each stroke, each blow of a sword penetrated right through my soul. I felt all their pains, heard all their screams and sobs.

Tears flowed freely from my eyes as I noticed who was next.

"Chronx!"

I reverted my sword from its victim and rushed to my lover's side but I was too late.

They did this to see my fear, they did this because they knew I cared, his cry, his screams, his pain will be felt the most.

I couldn't stand it, watching as the life faded away from his eyes.

His eyes- they were beautiful, now they are life less as I held him in my arms.

"Chronx." My voice hitch as I tried to call his name, but it was futile- he was gone from this world.

I screamed, crying my eyes out as  realization started to kick in.

I got up furious, I was ready to kill all of them. They took everything from me.

I was indeed right, the adrenaline I once had was now lost- torn in pieces like a flimsy piece of old paper.

"Father."

"Look what we got for you princess, surprise! Surprise!"

I looked at my father's sorrow filled face. There was so much unsaid words between us.

"I'm sorry my Daughter, we should have listened to you, I love you so much."

Fresh tears started flowing once more, there was a terrible ache in my heart.

"Shut it old man, or should I say your highness. But no more you are!" He drew his sword from its sheath yet I kept my gaze on my father. " Watch Princess as I take this Bastard's life!"

I told him I loved him as I turned my head to side, it was no use, I still felt everything.

I wish I didn't turn my head, I somehow wish I was also blinded by grief.

My enemies were standing all around me blood draining from their swords. Evil smiles portraits their faces as I noticed all my people were dead.

"I believe you already know why your still alive." Of course I knew. "Your much smarter from these imbeciles, not only that you have access to certain parts of the castle not even the King does."

I swallowed the fear in my throat.

"Come princess, we have much to do."

One last look, I was an empty shell of what I once was. Now I was used, only their puppets to do their dirty work.

But I have a plan, I'm gonna kill all of them one by one.
