*Third person's pov*

16 years have passed since that day and the baby have grown into a beautiful and kindhearted princess. She was named Princess Ana Mae by the king and queen. They shower her with love and the whole kingdom adored her for her beauty and kindness. At first, the king was shocked to see her wife carrying a baby in her arms. But because of his love for her he learned to accept the child and love her like his own daughter. He knows that his wife have longed for a daughter for such a very long time. But she can't bear a child no matter how much they tried. So he thought that Ana Mae is the answer for all their prayers.

"Good morning mom and dad!" the princess greeted her parents who have just started eating breakfast. She just came down from her room in the west wing of the palace.

"Good morning our princess!" the king and queen said in unison. She kissed them both on their cheeks first before she sat down to eat with them.

"Did you sleep well sweetheart?" the queen asked her lovingly.

The princess giggled before answering, "I had the most amazing dream last night!"

Her parents laughed with her answer.

"And what kind of dream is it sweety?" the king curiously asked.

"I saw a beautiful lady with a golden hair. She's standing under a myrtle tree. There were butterflies flowing around her. She's like a Goddess and her smile looks really amazing!" she explained while imagining the dream she had last night.

The king and queen looked at each other with amusement on their faces. They are both wondering why their daughter would have such a dream.

"Did she tell you something?" the queen asked curiously.

"No mom, she just smiled at me and then she disappeared," the princess answered.

"Maybe she's one of the Goddesses. And you said you saw her under a myrtle tree ,then she might be Aphrodite," the king stated.

"Aphrodite? The Goddess of love and beauty?" the princess asked with excitement. She have heard a lot about Gods and Goddesses when she was still young and for her Aphrodite is the most special. She don't know why, but everytime she hears that name her heart felt pain and longing.

"Yes sweetheart, maybe she was enchanted by your beauty that's why she appeared in your dream," the queen said and gave her a smile.

Princess Ana Mae giggled with what her mom said. Maybe she's right, and she's very honored that a Goddess like Aphrodite finds time to visit her even just in her dream.

After eating breakfast the king and queen started with their palace duties. The princess was left alone so she decided to go out for a walk in her mother's garden.

As soon as she arrived there, the fresh morning breeze touches her golden hair and made it flew freely. The flowers were dancing, everything looks so serene and beautiful.

She touches every flower that comes to her way and smell each one of it. She really love their sweet and majestic smell!

"What a beautiful sight. A princess in the middle of beautiful flowers how charming!" her cousin Amira said sarcastically.

Ever since they were young Amira never treated her as her cousin but an enemy . Princess Amira is the only daughter of the King's sister, Princess Anatalia. Both Princess Amira and her mother despise her for they thought of her as a threat. They both want the throne and just by the thought that Princess Ana Mae will soon inherit it made them so mad.

"Amira, I don't want to start a war early in the morning," Princess Ana Mae exclaimed as she started to walk away from her evil cousin. But Princess Amira quickly grabbed her arm and made her face her.

"How rude for a princess to walk away from her cousin who have just greeted her good morning!" Amira mocked her.

"Amira, I know what you're up to! You're up to something bad again! Please I want peace!" she begged. But Amira just laughed evilly at her.

"Peace? Then run away from this palace! Run away from our lives! By then, maybe I could give you peace!" Amira shouted angrily.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you like that? I'm not doing anything to you!" the princess cried.

"Ofcourse that's what you thought! But you're wrong! You are taking away my position! I should be the crown princess and not you! Your birth is a curse to this kingdom!" Amira yelled before pushing her by force. Princess Ana Mae fell to the ground while crying.

"My birth were fated by the heavens. It wasn't my choice," she mumbled.

"Well then, blame the heavens for all your sufferings! Because as long as I'm alive you will never be in peace!" Amira threatened her before she hurriedly walked away from her.

The poor Princess Ana Mae bursted out in tears. All she wants is her cousin and aunt to love her but she finds it hard to obtain. Because of their too much greed for power they became monsters, monters that were ready to ravish even their own relative just for their ambition to be on top. Good thing her father did not know about this. She kept her mouth shut because she don't wish to see her own cousin and aunt being exiled because of her.

"Your highness are you okay?" her lady-in-waiting Leana asked worriedly. It came running behind her.

"I'm fine Lean," she said with a smile to calm her down. Leana helped her stand and wiped the dirt in her gown using her bare hands.

"I should've stayed with you. I'm sorry your highness, I failed as your servant," she apologized while bowing her head down.

"No! It's okay. This is not your fault. I never thought I would see Amira here. I should've gone back to my room so I wouldn't have to encounter her," Princess Ana Mae said with sadness in her voice.

"So it's her again? I told you your highness we have to tell your dad about her bullying you!" Leana blurted out.

"No! It will just cause a bigger conflict. So it's better for me to shut up." Leana was amazed with Princess Ana Mae's answer. She's really a selfless and kindhearted princess.

"If that's what you wish your highness," Leana answered accepting her defeat. She knows that she can't change the princess' mind but she promised to herself that she will not let Princess Amira hurt her again. She will protect her princess no matter what!

    *Princess Ana Mae's Pov* I stayed in my room all day to avoid Amira. It's not like I'm afraid of her, I just want our family to have peace. I love her because she's my cousin and I don't want to see her living a miserable life. Father will surely punish her for bullying me and I don't want that to happen. So I will do everything to avoid her for her own sake. "Your Highness, dinner is ready," Lean said as soon as she entered my room. I felt sad, no matter how much I tried to avoid my cousin it is still way too impossible to avoid her during dinner. Dinner in the palace is considered our family time. No one is allowed to skip dinner because it is considered as our bonding. And the only time where we get to talk about what we did during the day and some family affairs. I sighed before I slowly stood up and fix my skirt. As princess I need to be prim and proper in any situation and time. I walked slowly and Lean is following me from behind.

The smell of death filled the air and in the middle of a small mountain stood a palace covered with darkness and black roses. The whole place was guarded by dark knights and black spirits. Inside the palace their king sits comfortably on his throne with his son on his left side. "Your majesty, the oracle came with a news for you," one of the guards said as he entered the throne room where their king sits. The king was happy with that news. He have been searching for this oracle for such a very long time because he wanted to consult her about something very important. "Let her in!" he ordered. "Right away your majesty!" The guard bowed down his head before he hurriedly went out to get the oracle. After a few seconds the dark and most mysterious oracle came holding an ancient book in her hand. The oracle's skin is full of callus, her eyes were as dark as t

Today is our first day in this University and I just hope that everything will turn out well. "How I wish the Gods would listen to your plea Leana," I answered. I'm not afraid of Amira but I just don't wanna start a war early in the morning and especially that it's our first day in class. That would be terrible! "Surely they will," she said in an almost whisper tone. I wasn't able to hear her words properly because she's standing near the door of our room while I'm fixing my bed before we leave for our first class.

He really felt that there's something strange with the prince's actions. "This amulet lit up the moment our shoulders touched. Maybe none of you sees it, but I have seen it in my peripheral vision. I noticed how my pocket sparkled," Prince Zion explained. Stefan went silen

I was lucky he was there, I could have died if he did not come to save me. But the thing that bothers me the most is how on earth a beast like that could really exist? It feels so unreal for me. But the fact that it was about to kill me gives me goosebumps. "Your highness, it's almost time for our first class," Leana reminded me. "Oh! I'm sorry Leana, I almost forgot!" My mind is occupied by Zion and that beast that I forgot about the time.

I don't know how to react, I'm afraid they won't like me just like my cousin Amira who despises me so much. They both walk towards my direction with a smile on their faces. "So, the rumors are true. The crown princess of Citrine is finally studying here!" the princess spoke and I can see happiness and excitement in her crystal blue eyes. "Yes," I answered nervously. I don't know why I suddenly felt nervous, probably because it's my first time to come face to face with other royals.

She ran away just because I told her that her parents will not come to save her? Oh such a weakling! "What? I just told her that she needs to stop being dependent to her parents," I said in an irritated tone. She's just over reacting! My words won't kill her princess! She glared at me before she left. She's probably going to look for her ran away princess. Such a pathetic slave! "The show is finish you may now go back to whatever the hell you are all doing!" I shouted

    *First Person's POV* Just as when I was about to blame myself, Leanna spoke, "No madame! The Gods did not sacrifice all of you!" The woman diverted her gaze to her. "And how did you know?" she asked while raising her left brow. "Because I'm one of the servants of the Gods. I am the guardian of the chosen one, and I know the whole story," Leanna stated while the woman stared at her with wide eyes. "So you're one of their accomplices? And you planned all of this just to know our whereabouts and sacrifice our lives once again? I really can't believe that the Gods could be that selfish! "No! I just want you to know the truth!" "We already know what the truth is!" the woman insisted."When we met the dark immortals earlier they told us that the reason why you hid yourselves down here, is that you are all selfish. But I did not believe them, because I don't want to judge someone without even knowing the truth. I just hope you will do the same with the God

    First Person's POV; "ZION!" I heard Diane screaming Zion's name. She must've been worried about him but the big question in my mind right now is, why would Zion risk his life to protect me? I stared at his eyes but still I could not see any emotion from it. He's still as cold as ice. "Your highness ,you better not forget our mission. Don't be so careless, or you might get yourself killed," Stefan said and Zion automatically let go of me. It's as if he was burned or something. "Are you okay Ana?" Diane asked as she hurriedly run towards me. Lyndon and Leanna did the same thing and they started checking if I got wounds or bruises. "I'm fine guys, you don't have to worry about me," I told them with a smile. The three of them stared at Zion with confusions written all over their faces. They were probably thinking on why the hell would Zion save my life, when he's obviously one of our enemies wishing for my death. Well, I wonder the same thing though. Maybe it

  • Ember Of Love   Chapter 43

    *First Person's Pov*Our journey to the North side of the forest lasted for two dark days. We were all exhausted when we reach the pear plantation.The place was serene and just like the other side of the forest, we did not see even a single animal walking around. All we could see through the tiny light of the moon are tall pear trees with fruits shining as it's touched by the moonlight."How are we going to find the white oracles here? All that's here are pear trees," Diane said frustratingly."Haven't you heard what Leanna told us before we came here? Pears are what the white oracles eat. So I'm pretty sure we're going to find one here!" Lyndon told Diane with a glare. I can't believe these two are starting to have their quarrels again."Guys please just be quite. We're not trying to let them know we're here and run off, aren't we?" I hushed them out."Sorry Ana, it just that there's some grinch over here!" Diane rolled her eyes at Lyndon."So you dare to say that I'm a grinch?

    *First Person's POV*Just by looking into his eyes I realised how much I've longed for him. And in a split second I found myself drowning in the valley of his gaze as I danced with the rhythm of my heart. I don't need a love like Romeo and Juliet's, nor of Edward and Bella. What I want is a unique and pure love whom I can call my own."Zion," I mumbled as the wind gently blows, touching his face. He stared at me emotionless, it's as if he doesn't even know who I am. How come? I thought our love was unforgettable. But it seems like I'm the only one who thinks that way."Oh my dear cousin." I was pulled out from my fantasies when I heard my cousin's voice."Amira? What are you doing here?" I asked her in disbelief. Don't tell me, that she and Zion came here together? My questions were answered when she clung to Zion's arms and smirked at me."Oh my dear cousin, it seems like you have fallen in love with someone you don't know," she told me with a smirk."What are you talking about

Velion shouted angrily after receiving the news from the raven he sent to follow Princess Ana Mae."I did not know that they could easily know the secret on how to defeat those spirit knights," Amira said in disbelief. Velion stared at her angrily and she nervously swallowed the lump in her throat."And you! You're a coward! You should've fought with her instead of leaving those spirit knights alone!" he yelled at her. "You could've defeated her since I have given you a lot of powers. But you're still useless!""I'm sorry my king, I promise to do my job better next time. Just please don't punish me," she begged. She's too scared to be killed. She don't want to die without avenging her mom. Besides, all her efforts would be in vain if Velion would kill her now."Surely you will. Because if you fail this time, I will kill you without having a second thought," he warned her. "I promise my king, just tell me what you wan

    *First Person's POV* The woods were covered with darkness and just like when we first entered this forest, we did not see even a single animal. Not even a chirp from a bird could be heard. "It's getting creepier in here," Diane whispered to me while biting her nail. It's some kind of mannerism for her whenever she fell nervous. "I know but we still have to travel to the North part of this forest. We need to find the white oracles as soon as possible," I told her. And with the tiny light from the moon, I saw her pout. "Yeah but don't you think we need to rest a bit? Those dark spirit knights drained all my strength," she complained which made me chuckle. "I think you're right. After all we're all exhausted after that intense fight ,we all deserve to rest," I agreed with her. "Let's look for a safe place to camp," Lyndon suggested. We all agreed and look for a safe place to stay. Leanna walked farther from us so she could check if the area is safe.

    "What shall we do now?" Diane said in panick. They were on their way to Alectrona's home on top of the mountain.They were walking on the dark woods and there's not even a sign of life there. It seems like even the animals were hiding because they're too afraid of the never ending night. "If we see Alectrona there, it would be the best option for us to bring her with us to the heaven realm, but if she's no longer herself then we have to prepare to defend ourselves," Leanna reminded everyone."She's right, we have to be prepared for anything," Lyndon added."And where the hell do you think you're going?" A cold voice from behind suddenly spoke."Who's that?" Princess Ana shouted as she motioned everyone to ready their weapons. Lyndon took out his sword while Diane prepared her bow and arrow. Leanna stood infront of Princess Ana to protect her from sudden attacks."HAHAHAHAHA how rude of you my dear cousin. You seem to be forgetful nowadays. It's bad."All of a sudden Princess Ana reme

She looked around to check for someone following her but the woods were silent and all she could hear is the sound of the night owl."I know there's somebody following me," she said to herself. She could feel a dark aura behind her and it's making her nervous. She took out her sword to prepare herself from possible attacks."HAHAHAHAHAHA stupid Alectrona, don't tell me your powers are not that strong anymore? Why don't you call the sun to come out to help you find me." She felt goosebumps when she heard an evil voice behind her. The voice is so familiar to her."VELION!" she shouted angrily.

And just when I thought I disappointed everyone, I saw hope on their faces when I opened my eyes. They all believe in me, and I should be doing the same thing to myself."I can do this!" I encouraged myself before I closed my eyes once again.I thought about everyone, about the two worlds that I need to protect from Velion's greed. And in my vission I saw the children's innocent faces, couples living a happy life together, trees, animals. Everyone is living a happy and peaceful life, and I could not afford to fail them. They all deserve a life like that and it will all depend on me. I'm the chosen one and I should believe that the prophecy chose me because I am strong and capable."Wow they're beautiful!"
