"What's with that long faces?" I asked as my smile and laughter faded.

"Hey! Speak up, you're scaring us." Sassy added when the two guys remained quiet as they stood behind the closed door of my room.

'What's wrong?' I asked Cool directly.

I saw him shook his head as if he had lost hope about something.

They exchanged meaningful looks before they nod at each other.

They asked for all of us to go to the lanai to talk.

When we were all seated, Hailec swiped his hand above the table and the hologram-like thing did it's work once again.

"The royal wedding shall proceed as planned Your Majesty!"

"That's the only way to appease the Fantasians. They trust Count Blaze, so if the Princess marry him there would be no more questioning."

"There would be no marriage happening as of the moment."

To say that I was shocked to hear this from the Queen herself was an understatement.

I saw how the others gave me quick glances before we resume watching what I assumed was happening inside the Queen's quart

    "Wow!" Ignis and Sassy exclaimed in unison as we all stared at the main gate of the Glaciers Palace.The crystal blue gate was carved with intricate flowing water all over it making it looked like a live waterfall."I thought the Flamis Palace is already the finest place here but this place took my expectations to another level!" Sassy remarked while we were walking towards the closed gate."Wait here." Cool said and went ahead towards the guardia of the gate and talk to him.I saw the guardia's eyes went wide when his gaze fell on our direction, to be precise, in my direction.He immediately ran to open the gate for us.Cool went back to us and told us that we can go in now.When we finally step on the Glaciers Palace, the guards immediately kneeled on the floor and in unison greeted me."Welcome Home, Princess Fhyra!" My eyes almost popped out of its socket when the other passersby saw and heard what the guardias did and also kneeled on the floor and greeted me as well."It's okay. I

    All this time I thought I was born in the mundane world. I concluded that since the day I saw my parents' story from one of the floating books in the library back in the Flamis Palace.But after hearing it from Queen Bleak, it turned out that I got it all wrong.So my mom stayed here?"If only Queen Feu hadn't interfered you would have grown up here." She explained softly.I can feel my forehead creasing from all the things she had revealed."Your parents didn't run away directly to the mundane world, hija. They first decided to stay here, that's why you were born here." She added, she probably noticed the lost and puzzled expression on my face."Woah!" Queen Bleak and I immediately turned our heads from where Sassy's shriek came from."What the?!" She exclaimed as she held her ground so that she won't stumble to the ground.I felt the Queen let go of my shoulders which she was holding earlier and face the crowd with a warm smile."Hello! May I know how can I help you?" She asked, taki

    "Kick harder!" Cool instructed as I kicked the thick punching bag hanging in front of me."Higher!" He said with a loud voice followed with a few training claps.I kicked the punching bag one last time with the last energy left with me.Cool clapped his hands as it flew meters away from where I stood up."Very good!" He said and lend me a bottle of water.I took the bottle from his hand and drank from it before resigning myself on the ground, panting.'You're a monster!' I yelled on his mind but I just earned a chuckle from that."You're getting better." He complimented as he sat on the ground beside me.I lazily turned my head towards him."I have a Commandant for a teacher. What do you expect?" I said followed with a groan when I felt my legs sore from too much kicking.It's been weeks since we arrived here in Glaciers. And all I can say is I like this place better.The Fantasians here are a lot more warmer and kind than those from the Flamis.The irony of life, those with the warmes

    My eyes immediately closed as soon as Cool's lips met mine.It was just a quick kiss. He immediately pulled back, so I opened my eyes only to close it once again when his lips came crushing mine once again.This time his kiss was filled with subtle roughness and longing.I felt his hand behind my neck, pulling my face closer to his as if we're not yet close enough.His other hand was encircled around my waist.My hands automatically wound up to his neck. Trying to support my weakening legs."Shit!" I cussed and immediately push him away when I felt his energy flowing towards me.I'm feeding on his energy again!"What now?! I can't even kiss you?!" I muttered angrily.I was still cussing repeatedly when I heard him chuckled."You find this funny?!" I asked him, sounding very irritated.He cleared his throat and tried so hard to stop from chuckling but a ghost of a smile remains on his face."What's funny?!" My forehead was creasing as I stared at him with a mix of irritation, frustratio

    "Commandant! Commandant!" I groaned and repeatedly tap Cool's chest to wake him up as well to open his door.Someone was consistently knocking and calling him outside his door.'Cool,' I called out in his mind in order to wake him up.I heard him groaned too when the knocking intensified.He took his arm away from my body who was half-lying down on his and let me lay down on the bed instead.He frustratingly brushed up his hair using his fingers."Sleep a little more," He said and gave me a chaste kiss on my forehead before proceeding to his bathroom.My eyes remained half-open as the noises outside his door gets more disturbing.It didn't take him long to go out of his bathroom and walked towards the door to open it while I rolled back on his sheets and tried to sleep again.I heard him opened the door and I felt the presence of four other men went inside the room."Commandant! The Princess is missing!" My eyes immediately flew open.Who's missing?"What?" Cool's confused voice was he

    "Dodge the attacks at all cost," Hailec said firmly."Don't let any part of the samad touch your skin." Cool added after they explain to us what it is and what it can do."Ready? Let's begin." Cool said and positioned himself in a combat stance. Hailec did the same as he face Sassy.They had already taught us the basics of close combat. We knew how to attack and when to defend.But today, they were asking us to just dodge.Do nothing, but dodge."Aww!" My concentration was lost when I heard Sassy screamed in pain and before I can get to properly look at her a searing pain was also felt on my upper shoulder."Don't lose focus." Cool said in a serious voice as he keeps the samad on his waist holster and tend to the wound on my shoulder.The white satin dress shirt I was wearing was now torn." We're just practicing do you really have to hurt us for real?" I accusingly asked them when I saw Hailec tending to Sassy's wound on her left waist as well."We didn't hurt you on purpose. We told

    Screams and shrieks are heard everywhere. Explosions and dark smokes can be seen at every corner of the palace.This is what I welcomed me when I opened the room of my door.Chaos.I suddenly saw Granny running towards my direction. She looks so problematic and worried at the same time."Fhyra! Hija! What are you doing here?! Where's Cool?!" She said while looking around vigilantly."What's happening?" I asked worriedly as I look at the once bright walls of Glaciers but was now filled with dark smoke."The Darkess attacked us. The guardias are delaying them while we evacuate the citizens." She answered and worriedly walked passed me to approach the lady she saw."Bugnaw! Hurry!" She said as she helped the lady.'Fhyra! Where the hell are you?!' I was suddenly alerted when I heard Cool's voice.'I'm outside my room. I'm with Granny. How 'bout you? Are you okay? How about Sassy? Ignis? And Hailec? Are you with them?' I asked him hurriedly while helping Granny guide the other fantasians t

    "Princess," Blaze greeted as soon as he saw me approaching them in the large main function hall of the Glaciers, which now serves as the evacuation area of the citizens.I gave him a quick glance and a slight nod before I faced Cool who was with him.I wanted to just ignore him but it would be too rude since he did help us in rescuing the people of Glaciers from the attack of the Darkess."What's the status out there?" I asked Cool.We might have been able to successfully evacuate the citizens inside the palace, but the fantasians living outside was still under attack by the Darkess."I think we would have to go out there to help rescue the others. The guardias wouldn't be able to withstand them for so long." Cool said which I nodded."I'm coming with you." I proclaimed."Princess, it's too dangerous---" I gave Blaze a sharp gaze that caused him to stop talking.I returned my eyes back to Cool who was staring at me intently."The Count is right. It would be too dangerous for you." he a

    I didn't how long it had been, but numerous bodies of fantasians from all tribes were scattered on the floor. Some were filled with blood but some were not. I even lost count as to how many darkess I had killed.This was indeed a bloody war.I stopped to stare at the battleground after finishing off another dark shadow from the darkess.My eyes immediately met Lord Dorchadas' green eyes."You really wanted to see this bloody war? Dear, you should've just surrendered, then all of this wouldn't be happening." He said with a calm smile on his face."If you didn't want to destroy Narte Fantasia, this won't be happening either," I answered boldly."You're a feisty one, huh. Just like your mother." My eyes widened when I heard him mentioned my mom."Oh? Nobody told you why I wanted to destroy your tribes?" He said as he crawled around me.I was following his every move while taking into consideration that Princess Umbra was just inches away from us."I wanted your mother. I always did. But s

    We've been battling non-stop for straight three days and Lord Dorchadas haven't ceased in any of his attacks.We were all tired, deprived of sleep, and absolutely famished.But what we were so worried about was Hailec. He was the one who was replenishing our energies and personas again and again. And now, it's taking a toll on him."Just rest for a while, will you?!" Sassy scolded him when he insisted to help us again after fighting with another packs of wolves and Pillies."Sassy's right, Hailec. Rest for a while, we can still manage." Cool said as he started to heal the injured guardias.I wanted to help so bad since I had already mastered this healing technique, however, if I do that, Lord Dorchadas would realized that I had the ability of a glacia as well.And I can't afford that for now. That was my trumpcard so far. So all I can do is sit beside Hailec and try to let him absorb some of my energy.He was panting so hard, and bullets of sweats crowded his face. He was already tired

    I was panting hard after I finished off another set of pillies sent by Lord Dorchadas.'How 'bout now? Do you think you're near enough?' I asked Cool.'I don't think so. We're in the middle of something that looks like a forest.' He answered which caused my shoulder to sagged in disappointment. I exasperatedly sighed and continued walking, mentally cursing the Darkess for this tiring situation we're in.Seriously? Just how far are we from each other?'Don't you think they had fooled you? Maybe they didn't bring you back here.''If that was the case we can't communicate like this.' I answered.I groaned loudly when I saw another set of pillies approaching but as they came closer I realized they were not common pillies like what I have been battling for hours now. These creatures were atleast three times bigger than the normal ones and they have sharper and longer teeth and claws."Son of a bitch. You've got to be kidding me." I muttered in a low breath as I stared at the five huge creat

    "Take off the laso." Lord Dorchadas ordered to no one in particular while his eyes remained on me.Suddenly, two dark moving shadows came towards me from the darkness to remove the laso around my wrists and my feet. After finally being free, I stood up and gently massaged my wrist.I'll take care of this later.It looks like the darkess had no idea that I had a persona of a glacia too. Well, not like anyone knew about it, except Cool of course."I'm interested as to how you want to play this so-called game of yours, Princess," I smirked at his remark as I cockily tilted my head to the side to show him one of my confident smiles."You wanted to see my abilities? Right? Then, I'll show you.""How?" He asked, his green eyes slowly turning to slits once again because of curiosity."Take me back to my group," I said nonchalantly and I saw how surprise and wickedness danced along on his face."And why would I do that?" He asked, challenging me.I rested my back on the wall and crossed my arm

    "Fhyra!" I heard Cool and the others shouted in panic.I thought it was just because I was using too much power but no.It wasn't.I realized that when I felt a black smoke engulfed me whole."No... No... No! Fhyra!"'Fhyra, fight back. Please.' My eyes flew open when I heard Cool's voice inside my mind.I tried to fight back but I can't move my whole body.I feel so drained.'I c-can't.' I answered.And I felt a gushing wind under my feet before darkness finally consumed my consciousness.I woke up in a very dark place. My hands and feet were all tied tightly.I felt so weak.I think this has something to do with me using too much of my ability earlier. Altough my persona was strong, it still have it's own limitations. And that was my first time emitting fire from my mouth and my body was on full blaze.Of course, it would drained me.I tried moving my hands behind but I immediately felt a stinging pain against my wrist."Shit! Please. Please, don't let it be a laso." I muttered under

    "Please take care." Granny said for the nth time as she was sending us off."We will, Granny.""Please, return safe and sound." She said worriedly to everyone.Everyone nodded and gave their farewell bows and hugs to Granny and their families.We would be going out of the palace today. We made sure first that the defense of this place was strong enough to keep everyone safe before we decided to go.Granny faced Cool after exchanging goodbyes with the others."I know you would do this even without me asking but please. Please take care of my granddaughter and come back safely." She said as she sweeps off some hair strands away from Cool's face.I smiled with how intimate Granny and Cool is. I heard Granny was the one who raised him, that explains their familiarity and intimacy."Go on. We won't be delaying you anymore. Please keep safe and get back with our people safe and sound." Granny said as she waved her last goodbye.We turned our backs from the people and face the gigantic ice ga
