THE SUN was about to rise.

We had seen the sun rise as we reached home from the long journey we took last night. Even if we were all tired from fighting all night long, none of us protested about it and that was what I liked about them. We brought five horses with us, three of them were pulling a cart. Two were for the children who were with us and one for the weapons that we used.

I mounted one of the horses while the other one was pulled by Matias who walked beside me. Behind us were our comrades who followed us, walking on their own two feet. I looked at the sky where the darkness was being conquered by the light of the sun as I heard the laughter of the children with their chirpy little voices, some of them were playing with Vivi. Perhaps they were delighted with the way he spoke. Screechy and repeated.

I halted the horse that I am riding when I noticed a black smoke coming from the place where the palace was located, where we resided for the past five years

    "By the time I face him, I am certain that I will hurt him to the hilts until he wishes that I just killed him instead of that," I said, clenching my jaws."We needed to save them right this instant. They might do something bad to them if we do not show up there as soon as we can, Princess," said Matias that was immediately agreed upon by our other comrades."If they try to harm even one of them, those bastard of a Vedantes will taste my wrath, I swear on my Father's name." I heaved a long and deep sigh to calm my raging nerves, feeling the anger half as I felt with Hencio. "Let us start preparing for that. Is there anyone here who wants to join me?" I asked the men I was with in this room.They were experienced in fighting too but I did not take them with me in Farianio because there were too many of us and I know for sure that we will win. Perhaps there were a number of Verdanes who went here, the reason why they got defeated. With that in mind, I have to brin

    I PUT down my hood when I finally reached near one of the markets here in Farianio. I commanded Vivi to tell him I am here and I will wait for him outside the palace.Even if we had defeated the enemies last night, I was still walking with all carefulness, watching the surrounding and staying alert because I do not know who was the enemy nor the ally on this land. Also, this is the territory of that bastard named Hencio. I know that I am slowly being on his watch now that I am making my move. I must not trust anyone that easily on this land. It will not be long until he thought of commanding someone to kill me with the likes of his loyal dog, Favier, like the last time.I smiled when I caught a glimpse of him in the distance. He was outside the palace, seemingly waiting for me. I cannot help but stare at his being because of his elegant looks as he stood there with an ethical posture. His fancy and stylish clothes even highlighted his handsome face.But even bef

    I LOOKED around the area when we arrived at their territory. I immediately went down the horse I am riding so as my comrades. We prepared ourselves and sharpened our senses as we felt the surroundings. There was none to welcome us at the entrance, so we were thinking that they had something prepared to give us a warm greeting for our arrival.There were just a few of us that were seen because the others were hidden in their respective places, they would only show themselves in a particular situation. I signale Matias to precede on entering the place first which he heed quickly in silence. When he sensed no harm in the area, he nodded at us, signaling for us to come and follow him as the place was safe.When we finally entered the Verdantes' premises, we were welcomed with our comrades who were kneeled on the ground with their hands and feet tied, bruisingly tight. Even their mouths were with gags so they cannot make a sound just like what we saw at the palace when we c

    ALONG with the thud of his body on the ground was the clomping of the footsteps the men walking towards us made, we were surrounded by them. With a knot on my forehead, I looked around and saw their all black outfit covering almost all of their being aside from their eyes. They all looked like they were experts in fighting. We were at a disadvantage when it came to numbers so I became anxious and slightly afraid for my comrades. By the way they stare at us, I knew that they were our enemies.I firmly pursed my lips when I heard Dardo's low but proud laugh as he forced himself to stand properly again. I just averted my gaze again at the newly arrived enemies that did not look like they came from their beloved king. It was like one of Idaho's men on the discotheque.That thought made my forehead increase a knot. Idaho was dead and almost all of his men were killed by us that night so I am puzzled to see his men here, or are this really his men? How do they become affilia

    I took a few steps back and covered my nose and mouth with the clean cloth on my hand. The enemies seemed confused when they looked at us but none of them spoke a word. A gentle wind blew throughout the area along with the gradual falling of the enemies, all of them were unconscious.Vivi circled around the area flying. And when he saw that there were no enemies left standing, he settled on my shoulder."The gentleman has left. The gentleman has left," he said in a low voice. I smiled at that and caressed him in the head."Wonderful, Vivi. We won," I said, still with a big smile on my face. His flight was just a show so our comrades will think that he was the one who spread the poison through the air which in truth was Sevasti, in the first place. He was not seen because he was as fast as the wind.I do not want them to know that we were getting back on each other's arms because I am still not ready for the words they might say to me and their thoughts.

    “IF THAT is what you want, my love,” he said in an almost whispering manner.My eyes went dreamy when I heard those words coming from his lips. It feels like a lullaby in my ears.“My love,” I said as I inched my face towards him and finally closed my eyes when my lips landed on his.The kiss was light yet I can feel how deep his feelings were. It even took me a while to open my eyes again when he released me from the kiss. I will never get tired of this feature of him. These moments were the ones I am holding in my heart. I would like to play it a thousand times and replay it a millions times more in my mind.I leaned my head again on his shoulder as I took my stare back to the lake where the reflection of the gleaming moon lies so as the stars that were with it in the sky above. The silence of the night was filled by the quiet chirping of the birds nearby. I can even hear the sound of my heartbeat with this tranquil s

    I SLOWLY walked back to the palace as questions about the future bugged my mind again. Thinking about the future of my people here in Kozania, my plans on rebuilding this kingdom, me and Sevasti.Are my feelings still right? Is it right to let myself be indulged in this kind of leisure with all the things that I have to consider because he was the son of my enemy? Would it be easier if I still think that he is fooling me like in the past to defeat us in the discotheque so I can only feel hatred for him? I sighed at that thought. This situation would not be this messy if that was what happened.I set all aside from my head. I love him and I am happy that he was with me, by my side, now so I do not want to spoil it by thinking of anything negative just to let go of him in the midst of this mess. I do not want to let him go. I do not want to lose him. I cannot see myself without him in my arms again. And I cannot have felt this serene feeling earlier if he was not there w

    I FASTENED the phase of my feet as I walked towards the exit of the market as I secretly took out my sword from its sheath. As quickly and quiet as I could, I went to the nearby tree with a large physique to hide my presence and wait until it was the right time to show myself. I aimed it at the neck of the creature who had been following me since earlier, even before he could walk past the place I was in. In a blink of an eye, I was in front of him, gripping him on the collar of his clothes so he could never escape me.Because of extreme shock, he cannot even move a muscle. It was as if he was still in a state where he was processing what was happening to him all of a sudden."What do you want? And who sent you?" I said as I clenched my jaws, glaring at him with furious eyes.His expressions became serious prior to the shock face that he had but his eyes were stained with a little bit of fear and doubt. I looked at his being and realized that he was not ju

    Sevasti's Point of View I WATCH her in the middle of the forest, here in Kozania. She was sitting in front of the clear water of the stream, the thing that is between us. I was so far away from her the reason why I think she did not notice me. Also, she seemed to be out of it and was thinking deeply to even notice my presence. She had been here earlier in the afternon and now it was getting dark but her position did not seem to change even in the slightest. I exhaust my eyes just staring at her beauty, at her hair wavy every time the wind blew. She is dressed better now than before. Truly, she became the queen of Kozania. She had achieved her dream of rebuilding her kingdom, and I am happy for her. Even if it costs the death of my father and us losing the ownership of the throne in Farianio. It was never ours to begin with so it was only just for it to be returned to its rightful owner. This is my only free time to stare at her because as soon as she feels my presence, I will immed

    I LOOKED at Adrina when we reached Farianio's palace. Tonight, to be sure to really surprise them with our attack, and another is for them not to be ready so that we can easily conquer this kingdom.Everyone is in the dark, hiding and waiting for the signal so that they can show up to the opponents. We use the sturdy weapons made by the Verdantes.It also took a long time before Dardo made his decision but in the end he chose to be my ally. I gave him a chest of gold which he really enjoyed. But he did not join our attack, considering the welfare of his kinsmen. I did not force him either. We have enough weapons from him and I think that is enough.He nodded at me so I smiled and turned to Vivi."Vivi," I told her. He flew away from my shoulder and fly freely through the air."Start the attack! Start the attack!" he shouted repeatedly with his shrill voice until it reached all our comrades.I pulled the sword out of its sheath and jumped fro

    "I LOVE you so much, Aliara! And yes, you are wrong if that is what you are thinking about me. You are the only woman I have ever loved in my whole life. The woman I will continue to love and will love until the last of my breaths," he said, seemingly trying to make me understand what is being said by him as the heaviness of his breath intensified. He looked down and when he spoke again, calmly. "I am sorry that I am not with you in all your suffering. I am not there when you need me. I am not there when you are looking for me. But, Aliara, I really want to go and see you at times you want me to be there. I want to save and protect you but my father always stops me. He does everything just so I cannot see you." His mouth clenched his jaws and turned to face me again, his eyes full of anger, longing and sadness. "I really love you, Aliara. That will never change. I hope you will forgive me for all my shortcomings. And please, do not take away your love for me. I cannot afford to lose

    He also smiled and seemed defiant. "How can I not know that there was such a commotion that day. The rebels that were a threat to the peace of Farianio escaped. The fairies only saved you, the reason why you are still alive today. Who would have thought that even the fairies were on your side? Maybe you really ought to live quite a long life.""It will still take a long time because I am barely done with everything I have to do." I moved closer to him, he did not budge and just stayed in his place. "But how do you make sure they are fairies? You just heard that they can control plants, do you not? You know it was not just fairies that had the ability to control plants."His forehead furrowed, wondering, and eventually that was replaced by panic."But--how ..."I proudly smiled and nodded softly at him. Agreeing with what is currently in his mind right now. Yes, Dardo, Hederon. They are not yet dead. They are just hiding from our sight. And now, it is time

    WHEN Adrina and I met again, she gave me another hope to continue what I had started, revenge on Henicio. She talked to me a few times about it but when I asked her why she was encouraging me, she did not answer and in fact, changed the subject.Now, I am standing in the middle of the forest while looking at the moon as I realized why she wanted me to kill Hencio. She wants revenge because of Matias. It is not hidden from my knowledge that she loves the man and even though I did not see her grief at his death, I know how much she felt at that moment.Perhaps, she has not forgotten yet. She has not lost her anger for the creatures that were the root of all of this. Especially with Hencio. He is the one who is responsible for all of this so he is the one to be avenged.I turned to Zalina who was by my side, she was Adrina's mother but she seemed to have aged just a little ahead of me when it came to appearance. Adrina and I were with her when I went to the V

    We now face the creatures who were watching. The reactions they show vary but curiosity prevails. I closely watched them as the soldiers adjusted the rope at my height. That only faded when I heard Vivi’s loud whistling in the air. He circled the creatures in front of us before approaching them. He did not stop flying, but his eyes were focused on me.A soldier pulled me up again to attach the rope to my neck, I just let him do that, still looking at Vivi. Earlier, he had been quiet all the way down as he followed us and I know he was sad now as he witnessed my fate. Her chirps seemed to be crying as I heard it so I also felt sad. I will leave him. It was just now that thought crossed my mind. That I will be leaving him.I smiled at him to convey that it was all right. That he did not have to cry and be sad. I know he can do everything without me. She can find a new friend to love and take care of him like I did. Otherwise, he will join other birds and live

    THE SURROUNDINGS were bright as the sun had already risen when we reached the center of Farianio. The creatures parted to give way to us, curiosity was written in their eyes as they looked. The soldiers were in front and on our side, watching us closely as if we could still escape in this condition. Aside from chaining our hands, we were already tired and weak from the long journey. And most of us were still wounded.I could no longer walk properly because of my trembling leg. The aching wound in my thigh seemed to spread all over my body. My sweat was dripping, my throat was dry and I was definitely pale because of the blood I had lost.These stupid soldiers do not even give us a drop of water."Aliara," Casias called, he was just next to me. Hands were also tied and had nothing to do but obey these soldiers. He called me several times but I never looked back at him.This stupid traitor! He still really wants to talk to me."Do not talk to me," I

    I nodded and stomped on his foot. His jaws clenched and we applied more strength to our swords, still stuck to the air. I quickly backed away and struck the sword I was holding on his stomach but he immediately dodged so it just touched his clothes.He gripped his sword tightly and successively rushed at me but I avoided everything as he continued to retreat. When he stopped, I turned around and rushed first, with each strike of my sword he shielded it with his weapon. However, I hit him several times with my arm and hand. But because he was strong he was not shaken by those measly attacks.Annoyed, I blew a massive puff of air when he kicked me on the side, I backed away and stopped. My eyes were firm as I turned to him. I was ready to rush again but I stopped when an arrow hit my arm causing me to release the sword I had in my grip.My mouth stopped at the pain I felt here. I did not notice it coming! However I no longer paid attention to it when Favier rushed

    "YOU ARE a princess, Aliara?" Rowan spoke again but I ignored him.And since Casias was also not surprised by that, it was only a fact that Favier was stating the truth, that he was affiliated to the palace.I smirked after a while, sarcastically. There are many questions in my mind but I am slowly coming to an understanding on what is happening now. They have known each other for a long time, even before I came here to Ohayas. It was very clear that Casias had betrayed me, he pretended to know nothing about me, that he did not know me. Perhaps that fool Henicio is watching over me. And this is the right time to kill me.Am I quick to trust so I am always betrayed by the people around me?I want to laugh at myself for that question.But even if he deceived me now I do not intend to question him. It also does not matter if I ask him why he did this to me. All of them wants only my life.And I will not just give my life without resisting.
