Chapter 42

“So how was dinner last night?” Lia asks as Clarice and Millia helps to dress me for the Parade, a cream princess off the shoulder court train lace tulle ballgown with sequins. The bodice is made of intricate lace, the sweetheart neckline cut lower than I would like but the train is what surprised me. We agreed tulle did not look good on me weeks ago, but this full ballgown made of tulle with slight lace detailing really did look good on me.

“It went well. Ron and Liz hit it off with my Grandparents and they agreed to coming for more events my Grandmama hosts. I think Liz and Grandmama are going to be spending more time together.” Millia carefully curls my hair into a cascading updo, the amethyst tipped hair pins shining in the light as she rearranges my hair. I asked her why she is curling my already curly hair and she stated to neaten them and add a regal flare to my look.

“Sounds like Liz needs it.” Millia chuckles out, making me smile.

“She does. Liz and Ron are the onl

    Chapter 44Huddled in the corner of my room clutching my teddy bear, I listen as swords clash and guns fire. I knew those sounds, my father making sure I knew how to wield both even. Today was my sixth birthday and the party ended hours ago. So why are people fighting?"Mama?" I whimper out, clutching my teddy tighter while shivering. No one answers but the silence."Princess Allisara?" Someone whispers my name as light footsteps come my way. It takes a moment to recognize the voice in the darkness but soon I realize it is my Maid Rainnah. Throwing my teddy to the side, I rush to Rainnah’s open arms and cry. She soothes me, begging me to quiet down as she rushes to help me dress. She chooses a long sleeve dress with a cape wrapped around my shoulders. It is late spring and I wonder why she is dressing me so warm but she told me I need to stay quiet because there are bad men about, so I stay quiet. Once dressed, Rainnah carries me into her arms and rushes to the secret door hidden in m

    Chapter 45A knocking on my door wakes me from my sleep and with a sigh, I turn to look at the door. I have had a long night and honestly I do not want to deal with anyone right now. The door begins to open and I groan, I pull the duvet closer to my body, every muscle in me protesting. My head aches as I try to sleep a little longer knowing that once I leave my bed, a shit storm awaits me."Good morning Alli." The bed dips beside me as Sky gently pulls back the duvet, giving me an amused smile as I blink at him, frowning at the fact that he decided to disturb me."How do you feel?" He asks, brushing my hair from my face before bending down and placing a kiss on my forehead."Like I've been through hell and back." I yawn, giving him a small smile. He chuckles, running his hands through my hair. My eyes close involuntarily, the gentle movements making me want to fall asleep again.“After yesterday, I would say we’ve been through hell and back.” He muses, his deep voice making me open my

    Chapter 46I waited in front of the bathroom door, Alice giving me a knowing smirk as she goes back to reading Allisara’s schedule for the next two weeks, making notes in her own tablet of what she will need to do as my second in command of the Violet Guards. I know she is waiting for the day I have to step down and she can take my spot as Commander of the Violet Guards one day but I still don’t know how I should feel about it. I love Allisara and I want to be with her. If things go our way I will one day be King beside her, but it will be hard when I am not a Noble.The sound of the water is finally heard from behind the muffled door and my mind decides now is the time to imagine what she might look like as the water cascades down her naked body."Stop that." I grumble, shaking my head before running my fingers through my hair. That kiss from earlier is definitely one I have been dying to do and my body definitely agrees with my heart and brain that I want more. But I won’t rush All

    Chapter 47“You almost done Alli?” Alice calls out from the door way just as I turn off the shower. I sigh, sticking my head our of the door to see my friend looking at me.“Give me a minute to dry off.” I call back, getting an okay from her before the bathroom door closes. Taking a deep breath, I step out of the shower and grab the fluffy towel from the rack beside it, wrapping it around my body. I have a few more minutes left to myself before I need to prepare for the broadcast. Leaning against the counter, I use a smaller towel to dry my hair as my thoughts wander to that kiss with Sky – and how I wanted more as soon as he left.My hands stop moving and I drop the towel onto the counter. I know the Nobels will push back if I try to marry Sky, so I need to set the plan in motion. Maybe I should talk to my Grandmama about throwing a Ball here, to do what needs to be done so that Sky and I can have a future together.Smiling, I leave the bathroom and am instantly bombarded by Clarice

    Chapter 48Standing in the dressing room, I peak out from the behind the curtain to see an array of reporters from news crews to social media bloggers to those looking for a scoop for the Zalaris Star - the Capitol City’s news paper. It seems that my Uncle spared no corners when it came to inviting anyone and everyone who could get the word out.“Are you okay?” Sky’s voice is just beside my ear, making me jump as I turn to face him. He chuckles, tucking a strand of hair behind my ear and making me smile.“Nervous, but I can do it.” I answer, taking his free hand in mine and relishing in his touch. Alice had told me that Sky went to check on Juden and the security in the Dungeons before he ran into Ron and my Grandfather. She had sent a Maid to find the three men to come meet us in the Broadcasting Room, which they thankfully did. I don’t think I could face all those people waiting in the crowd for me without Sky beside me.“Well, you get through this and then we can go on a much neede

    Chapter 49"You did great, Allisara." Entering the Palace hallways, Sky pulls me to his side and kisses the top of my head. I blush, still liking the way my name sounds on his lips."Thank you." I whisper quietly, reaching up and pulling the tiara from my head. Sky chuckles, taking the dainty jewelry from my hand and passing it to Clarice as she comes beside me, asking her to take it to my room. She complies and then is gone in a flash. Sky and I walk quietly down the halls, aimlessly wandering for a moment until we find ourselves in the kitchen."Where are you taking me for our date?" Sky asks as he watches me from where he stands leaning against the counter, an amused smirk on his face watching me run around the kitchen and trying to not get in the way of the staff. An idea came to mind as and soon I found myself getting a picnic basket together as I know it will be perfect for our date."You'll see."

Her boyfriend, realizing he startled her, takes quick strides and pulls her into his arms.“Are you okay Allisara?” He asks, pressing a soft kiss on her cheek.“I am worried about next week.

Kian is pacing the floor, his eyes full of anger while Lia and Mia mumble prayers. Alice is sitting beside me, staring at the doors as we all way for a nurse to confirm whether or not we can visit our friend. Sky had gone for a coffee run with Arian and Adam; the two guards having rushed here as soon as they got the news.“Princess.” A small voice calls out causing me to jump to my feet and march towards the Nurse that came through the heavy doors.“How is he?” I ask right away, taking the Nurse’s hands in mine.“He is resting now. The surgery was a success.” A collective sigh goes through all of us, the tension and worry in the room breaking as we all visibly relax. Max had been in surgery the moment he was sent back to the Palace. As soon as we all managed to return home, we had made our way to the hospital wing. The nurse typing on the laptop in the corner was t

    Chapter 55Exiting my carriage with the help of Sky, I wince slightly from the discomfort caused by waking up in Sky’s arms this morning. Last night he and I had fully committed to one another and this morning when we woke up, he made sure to show me how much he loves me.“Did I over do it?” Sky asks as I link my arm through his.“Yes.” I pout as he leads me towards the stage where I will sit during the execution. I can already hear the crowd demanding bloodshed for all the heinous acts Juden and his men have committed and I will gladly give it to them. My Grandparents, Kolten and Arian are already seated on stage, each one wearing a black suit. Taylor and her own unit are spread out in the crowd, listening in for information in case any of Juden’s men are mixed with the crowd waiting to free their leader.Sky helps me climb the stairs to the stage, escorting me to the microphone that sits to the right corner of the stage we will be sitting on. Below me is another platform, one that h

    Chapter 54Gasping awake from my dream, I look around the room and realize that I am safe and sound in my own bed. A fire roars in my fireplace, dimly lighting the room and keeping it warm and my body feels so sore and weak."Allisara?” I shiver at the sound of his deep voice, my head turning towards my bedroom door. There Sky stands, his emerald eyes locked onto my violet ones.“Hi.” I croak out, tears falling down my face. He rushes to my side, pulling me into his arms as soon as he sits on the edge of the bed and I begin to sob. How did I forget him, my Sky?"What’s wrong? are you hurting?" He asks, rubbing my back and doing his best to soothe me."I’m sorry I forgot about you." I sob out, my arms snaking around his neck. He pulls away in shock, his eyes wide as his hands move to cup my face.“You…you remember me?” He whispers, his own tears falling down his face.“Yes!” I manage to say before his lips slam against mine, claiming them in a heated kiss. I melt into his embrace, part

    Chapter 53Pouting beside my cake, I watch as Demitrias talks to all those girls that surround him, my cousin being one of them. My mother just announced that I am to marry him before my fifth birthday party began and I am not happy. Not once has he wished me a happy birthday or come my way.The girls are called away and finally he is alone. I do my best to march towards him, wanting to talk to my friend and see why he is being so mean to me.“Allisara get out of my way.” He sighs out, annoyed by me."No." I cross my arms over my chest and stomp my foot. He is my fiancé now; he needs to talk to me."Move or I will make you." He grounds out, glaring at me."Why are you being so mean to me?" I nearly shout, tears filling my eyes."Because I don't like you. You're just a dumb girl I have to marry." With that he pushes me to the side, nearly knocking me onto the ground. A pair of arms catch me and the scent of pine fills my nose. Before I can say anything to the person, he gently pulls me

    Chapter 52"Sky.” Lia appears from the shadows, a smile on her face as she appears beside Noir."Mia is watching the shack but she is there. Alli is there.” Relief fills me as I slump in Noir’s saddle. We are so close to saving her now.“How many people?” I ask, climbing from Noir. I let his reigns fall to the ground.“Four men. The shack only has one main room and one bath room. Hunters use it to camp out during hunting season.” She takes out a dagger from her boot and motions for Kian to come join us. We all agreed Alec will stay with our horses so that we have an easy getaway.“Alli is close to bathroom door. She is passed out on a mattress. It seems only one man is guarding the door, like he is waiting for someone.” She draws the shack as best as possible in the ground, using a circle to show Allisara and triangles for the kidnappers.“Three are inside playing a card game and drinking. I have a feeling they are drunk. It’s the guy guarding the door we need to worry about.” Lia con

    Chapter 51“Allisara!” I call out into the dark. It had been a while since I heard her call out my name and I am beginning to grow frantic. The lights flickered on suddenly, the Ballroom filled with cowering Nobles clinging to one another. I look everywhere for her, spying the man she danced with on the floor with a bloodied nose. Rushing over to the man, I kneel beside him and look over his injuries.“Where is she?” I demand after making sure that his nose isn’t broken.“I don’t know where she is. I went to grab her to keep her safe and the next thing I know I have a fist flying into me and a bloodied nose.” The man answers. Standing to my feet, I look around the Ballroom once more. Three songs. Three dances. She promised me that and then the rest of the night she would be mine. Now she was gone.“Sky!” Turning to the sound of my name, I catch Alice and Kian rush towards me through the crowd.“Alice. She’s gone.” I mutter out, panicking.“Sky, it was Juden’s men. They knocked the pow

    Chapter 50Looking at my reflection in the full length mirror, I do my best to make sure the hickey Sky had given me yesterday is hidden. Today is the day of my first Ball in the Palace and I do not need tongues wagging within the Nobles gossip circles. Lidia had done a good job choosing the gown I would wear today, a dusty rose coloured gown made from organza and lace with a slit up the left side of the gown. The sleeves were full length that started flaring out at my elbow and thankfully the material hid the mark on my shoulder. My hair was kept in loose curls with a decorative clip keeping the strands out of my face while my bangs were styled with a small flat iron.Millia and Clarice wanted me to wear stilettos but I opted for a pair of rose gold peep-toed kitten heels. It will be a long night tonight and I want comfortable shoes that I can dance the night away in or fight if something happens.Since the broadcasting three days ago I have been feeling uneasy.
