"Noelani! Noelani, can you hear me? Answer me please!" my voice was breaking while I called for her! "Mira! What's happened? Before the explosions, did you see anything?"
"Your Majesty... When My Queen went to the bathroom, I followed her, even if I knew she didn't want me to...I did. I couldn't let her alone while pregnant. I love my Queen, Sire. She's like an older sister to me; she always was. I can't feel otherwise, even if I know it's wrong... I'm just a maid after all." Mira said with teary eyes.
"So I waited for her outside. I knew she went into the men's bathroom, so I just stayed next to the door stopping every man from going in. When she came running and crying outside, I panicked. I didn't know what's wrong. And then, before the door closed, I saw King Kai and Lady Tal hand in hand in the bathroom." She started sobbing. "I felt her pain... My Queen's heart was shattered. She was broken."
"The f.....g moron! How dare he do this! I should kill him right now! But I know my Noelani wouldn't want this," I sigh while caressing her face. Her silver hair was damp now, and her skin was so pale and bruised.
"Oh, Noelani! You poor soul..You didn't deserve that".
It's been eight days since the incident, and Noelani was still in a deep sleep.
The doctors were afraid that if she didn't wake up in the next two days, the baby would be in danger of death. I couldn't let that happen. Not to Noelani.
"Mira, you should go take a shower and eat something. I'll stay watching her," I said, sounding more like a demand. With a slight nod, she left the room.
It was just Noelani and me now. I was holding her hand when she started thrashing violently.
"Help! Help her, please!" I screamed as the doctors came in. They start checking her and running around. Her heart was beating so fast. Beads of sweat were visible on her forehead now.
"My King, you need to get out now, please! We need to operate on her urgently to save the child. Hopefully won't be too late." The doctor said, pushing me out the door.
Mira came back running, breathing hard. She opened her mouth to say something but closed back as there's no sound coming out.
The doors of the hospital hall opened, and a curly black hairball jumped in my arms.
"Daddy! Daddy! Are you sad?" Said my five years old son, Oren, wiping my tears with his little hands.
"No, my son, I'm not! But I'm so happy now, seeing you and your mommy." I said, searching my wife's, Erin, eyes. She gave me a small smile and kissed Oren's head and then my cheek.
"Your Majesty!" Mira said to my wife, bowing her head.
"Mira! I am so glad to see you're feeling better. Your arms are almost healed." she smiles, nodding back to Mira.
After 12 hours of waiting, it was just Mira and me...It was 2 am. Erin took Oren to bed around 11 o'clock.
I was sipping on some hot coffee when the operation room's door swung open—one of the doctors was getting out with a crying baby in his hand.
"It's a girl!" He said with a half mouth. My eyes went to bed behind him. It was full of blood. Doctors and nurses were trying to stop the bleeding. My heart ached.
"Aa...Aaron...Aaron!" came Noelani's voice. I rushed past the doctors, and I took her extended hand in mine...
"Noelani!" I whisper.
"Aaron...m-my baby! Ta, take care of my baby, please!" she pleaded while the tears that flooded her eyes were now streaming down her cheeks and neck. I nod, as I couldn't say anything.
"Promise me, Aaron! Promise you'll take her under your wing...take her as your own. Don't let anyone know about her. It would help if you kept her safe, Aaron. Promise me, please." She pleaded again as more tears welled up in her eyes.
"I will," I said. "I promise to take her as my own."
Mira came in with the baby, who was now quiet and pulling at Mira blonde curls. She giggled, and Mira was smiling with tears in her eyes. "She is so beautiful, My Queen!" she said.
"Bring her to me, please, Mira! I want to hold her one more time!"
"My Queen, forgive me, but I'll say you're silly. You'll get to hold her every day from now, Mira said, looking everywhere but not at Noelani.
Noelani burst into laughter but then started coughing violently till blood was coming out in the corner of her now almost blue lips.
"I always like you the most, Mira! You always surprised me with that mouth of yours! I'd like to stay and hold my baby," she said, brushing her fingers on the baby cheek, "and listening to that mouth of yours. But my time has come, old friends." She was now looking between Mira and me; "and I want to thank you for being my friends and for showing me that there's no need to have the same blood to be brothers or sisters." A small smile was showing on her lips.
"I'll let my child in your care, hoping that you both will love her as you loved me." She put the baby next to her and extended her arms to hug us. And we embrace and cry together.
After a few minutes, she released us from her embrace and turned her face to the now smiling baby.
"Evolet...Her name will be Evolet. And she won't know about her parents till the time comes!" She said, passing me the baby.
"But how will we know when the right time is, Noelani?" I asked.
"You will! Trust me! Promise me you'll be by her side all the time, caring for her and help her be strong!" Then she closed her eyes with a sigh, and so was gone. Noelani was gone...
"I promise, my friend," I whisper, turning my eyes to the baby. She was watching me with big doe silver eyes, not knowing that she just lost her parents—such a cruel fate.
Evolet, the daughter of Water King Kai Zale and Air Princess Noelani Zephyrine, was now in my care. She was now my daughter, Evolet Wood, a princess of the Earth Kingdom.

My dress is ruined, Oren," I said, pouting. "Oh, the little princess is upset now!" he said, throwing another full hand of dirt in my face." That's it! No more!

Blaze pov (warning: some mature content) I wake up feeling a hand on my bare stomach. I turn my head to see its owner, and I'm met with a ball of red hair. Memories from last night come rushing in my pounding head. I must have drunk too much again. I can't remember the name of the naked woman next to me, but that's nothing new. As I never ask for a title. It doesn't matter for me as long as my primal instincts are satisfied. I grab a handful of her hair and direct her mouth on my now erected member. She starts licking and sucking, and I start pounding faster and faster till I release myself. "Get dressed and get out!" I said, my voice rough. The woman put her clothes on with trembling han

It's been 20 years since I lost my parents.I took over the Throne for three years as my brother was too small for such responsibility. I was always so busy with Kingdom affairs, and I've always been at Blaze's side that I forgot to live. I'll be 30, and I'm still alone. Call me selfish, but sometimes I wish not to be a royal. I want to meet someone, who will love me for me, who won't find my rank meaningful. Many have tried to win my heart, and all have failed.

Elements: Four Seasons 9. Prisoner
Blaze pov.I'm sitting in my office waiting for my sister to get ready for her birthday party. After she insisted for a whole week, I finally agreed to have the party held in The Sun City. I'm still not sure if it was a good decision or not, as there were so many attacks from the Water Kingdom in the last month. It's like King Kai can't wait to finish this.But I can't think about this now. All I think about since I've woken up this morning were purple eyes. I've dreamed about those eyes before, but this time was different. I was in this dark place, I tried to create a flame, but I failed. I never fell back. It was my element, my birth gift, or my birth curse. Trying to bring a flame to life, I froze when I felt eyes burning holes in my back. I turn around to be met with the most fantastic pair of purple eyes. I have never seen something as

Blaze pov. I can believe the kid in my dungeon is King Kai's son. I can use this to my advantage, but then again, will this stop the mad King. Will the life of his son be enough for him to stop this war? Sipping the golden liquid from my glass, I'm thinking, what should I do, but as far as I know, King Kai, he's not going to stop. So the only thing, for now, is to ask for help from the other two kingdoms. Air and Earth Kingdoms, both strong and peacefully. Kingdoms that I never visited before. They owe me nothing but is my only chance to stop this war. A war that I didn't ask for.A war that destroyed my life. The lives of my parents and so many innocent people is a price too high to pa

Blaze pov.We ran to where Titus was, only to find him on the side of the bed."Titus! What do you think you're doing?" Enya asked."What does it look like? I'm getting out of bed. I need to prepare for the meeting. What? Did you think an ice arrow will stop me from going to the other Kingdoms?" He said, chuckling. She runs to his side, hitting his shoulder."Don't you ever do this to me! Do you hear me?" Then she hugged him."How do you feel, Titus?" I asked, patting him on the back."Like a newborn, My King!" Titus responded mockingly.

Daddy will be sad.""Yes, he will be sad. So let's get dressed!"I start brushing her black curly hair. She looked so much like her father. Black hair, tan skin, only her eyes are silver-like mine. Sometimes I can see the purple in them. I know she can control all the elements, even the Aether. She will be more powerful than all of us. But this is what scares me. Many will try to hurt her.Her sweet voice bro

Blaze povHe's dead! Finally, the war is over!I run towards my Alter, holding my wound."Evolet!" I yelled, kneeling next to her. But before I could reach her, she passed out."Help her, someone! Please!"I look around at the sea of people. Her family was crying. Oren was still shocked by what had happened earlier. I'm not sure what that was. But I swear I have seen Amaya turning into a giant black wolf. I heard stories about people who had this ability. But it was only stories.All the water elementals were on their knees, waiting for their fate to be decided.

Amaya pov When I took Evolet's hand, I instantly connected to her power. It was more substantial than before. I knew immediately this was the Aether. "Let's play, then!" That was all I could say. She nodded her head. "Don't try to save me, Amaya! I promise I'll do my best! But if my death is truly the only option to end this, I won't hesitate. Tell my family I love them! And please, look after Blaze!" She gave me a small smile, and I left the already damaged barrier between Aalto and us down, only to create another one that separated the three of us from the others. Everyone was looking at us, not fighti

Did he touch you? Did he hurt you?" The anger in his voice would make everyone cringe, but not me.I kissed him again. "No! He did not!""Evolet, watch out!" Amaya yelled. But before I could turn around, Blaze switched our places.He was looking me in the eyes! His lips are lifting in a sad smile."I'm sorry, my little flower! I couldn't keep my promise! I love you! I will always love you!"

They won't expect to see me! Everyone thinks that their prince is dead! I can create a distraction long enough for you to go unnoticed.""That's a good idea, Kano!"He then heads to the gates. I could see the surprised warriors trying to figure out how it is possible for their prince to be alive.I get close to them. Careful not to make any sound. I snap the neck of the first warrior, then punch another in the chin, sending him on the floor, unconscious. Kano froze tw

I said, hoping she was in bed.I made my way to our room, but it was empty."Where is she?" I asked no one in particular."Blaze! Blaze!" I turn around to see Kano.&n

I hope there will be enough time to kill Aalto before Blaze finds me.My heart was aching, being so far away from him. But this was the only way. The only chance I've got to stop this war without losing the one I love most."We should stop and rest for a while. There's a river nearby. We can stop there and let the horses drink some water." Amaya said, slowing down.

I must have been too focused on my thoughts that I hadn't seen or heard her."Mmm...yeah! I'm sorry! I was thinking about today! It's a big day. I am trying to hide the worry from my heart. I want to say I'm afraid. I'm terrified about confronting Aalto on my own. Amaya will be with me, of course, but even if she trained so much, we both know she's not a fighter."Yes, it is! But honestly, I can't wait for it to finish. I'm already so tired!"
