Jotham, Silveran Capital

2030

Dejected and conflicted, prince Caden stared at Hazel's retreating figure, his lips parted. He couldn't understand why she wasn't warming up to him, despite how considerate he'd been. What was it about him that she didn't like?

He was clueless and it bothered him a lot.

"Your majesty?"

He looked up at the sound of Nazu's voice.

"What's wrong? You look disturbed" she said with a slight frown creasing her brows. Caden looked away, letting out a small sigh.

"I'm fine, Nazu" he responded. She sat down beside him and gazed at the flowers in the garden.

"I don't believe you" she breathed. The prince turned to look at her, the expression on his face, unreadable.

"Nazu-"

She closed her eyes, exhaling slowly.

"Listen to me, Caden. I know our relationship ended roughly and it was all my fault. I accept that. But, that doesn't mean that I don't care about you. Seeing you bothered makes me feel bothered too. You can talk to me, you know. I won't judge, I promis

    Jotham, Silvera Capital 2030 Birds chirped, the flowers swayed gently as the cool evening breeze washed over them. Hazel and Yuka sat side to side, staring at the fountain flowing out of the mouth of the statue of a dragon which was located in the center of the east wing garden. No words were being said at the moment and there was a look of contentment on their faces. Being in the company of each other, seemed to give them a certain peace. Yuka eventually broke the silence, his gaze still resting on the fountain. "You still miss them, don't you?" he asked, his voice soft.The corners of her lips curved upwards slightly."I do" she responded, a sigh escaping her lips when she thought of her family. She couldn't help but wonder if they were okay. Did they miss her as much as she missed them? Were they eating well? Were they hav

    Glass collided with hard marble floor at the impact of Yuka's hand pushing the glass of wine out of Hazel's grip before the rim of the glass could touch her lips. Everyone was startled by Yuka's sudden action. He stared at them for a moment, not knowing what to say and how to explain what his instincts were relaying to him. The queen on the other hand, was upset. Yuka had just saved Hazel from a painful death. Her eyes had turned cold. Moreso, her lips were set in a grim line. The temperature of the room had dropped by several degrees. It was then the king understood the reality of what was going on. He let out a sigh of relief, his gaze meeting Yuka's. "What was that for?" Caden demanded. He was oblivious to what was happening right under his own nose. "I'm sorry, I didn't know what I was thinking. Here, you can have mine" Yuka stated, handing his glass of wine to Hazel who couldn't understand what was going on. Nevertheless,

Now, how the hell am I supposed to forget about what I've just seen?" Hazel demanded, hitting him on the chest."I'm really sorry""No, you're not" she hissed and started to storm off."Come on, Hazel. I apologized" he said as he followed behind her."I won't tease you like that again, I swear""Just stay away from me for now. I don't want to talk to you""Hazel-" She sighed."Fine. Just give me a little while to forget about what I saw, okay?""Okay" She walked away, her heart stuttering in her chest. She couldn't believe she'd almost let him kiss her. 'He's so annoying!' she thought, trying to fight off the smile coming on.'Is Caden as sexy as Yuka?'She

"Yuka? W-what's going on?" Hazel asked. She was starting to panic and this emotion fueled her powers. Kai flinched at the sound of a terrifying thunder clap. Yuka held out a hand to Hazel, his gaze locked with hers. "Don't panic. You need to relax. Trust me, you don't want anyone else to know about this" he said and tears filled her eyes."I-I'm scared" "Hazel, you don't have to be scared. You need to get a grip of yourself, the sky is turning red" Kai said and she looked up towards the sky, her eyes widening when she saw that he was telling the truth. "What do I do? I'm really trying-""Give me your hand" Yu

Hazel asked her companion who had a confused look on his face. "This doesn't make any sense. Why would father bring in another half blood into the palace, especially one that is both Silveran and Galactican--""Thats it" Hazel said and his frown deepened. "What?""She's like you"Yuka's eyes widened when he finally understood what was going on. The half blood was supposed to get married to him. His stomach churned with uneasiness. He'd always found a way to escape things like this. But, at this point, he didn't have the faintest idea of how he was going to escape this one and it worried him.

Her heart was hammering wildly against her rib cage. She'd never felt so excited, yet worried. No one had ever made her feel such intense emotions. It was clear that Yuka was the only man who affected her so much, in more ways than one."We just kissed" Hazel breathed, her gaze locking with Yuka's violet ones. He pulled away from her, his thumb stroking her cheek tenderly."We did" he agreed, his gaze unwavering."I know I should feel bad, guilty even, for doing this. But, does it make me a bad person if I enjoyed the kiss?" She said.She'd barely finished her statement when Yuka leaned closer to her a

In a worst case scenario, she might have actually watched him kiss Hazel twice. Since, he didn't know exactly what she'd seen, Yuka decided to play it cool by saying, "So? What if you saw us at the burial grounds?""I heard that you were mourning your mother's death. The red blood must be close enough to you for you to be able to bring her with you, to your mother's grave" Anya said and Yuka stared at her with a blank look on his face."I don't see the need to talk to you about any of this" he said and started to walk away again. Her next statement stopped him."If the king knows how close you have been with the red blood, you know that there are going to be grave consequences. Now, we don't want that,

Deep down, she knew she didn't have the right to be mad at Yuka for kissing someone else because they weren't even in a relationship. She exhaled slowly, sweat dripping down the sides of her face. Frustrated, she let out an angry yell and began to punch the punching bag fiercely."What the heck, Hazel? Take it easy" Caden said as he gripped the punching bag. He stood opposite Hazel who was glaring daggers at him, her chest heaving."Why are you so angry?" He asked and she turned away from him, picking up a towel. "Won't you say anything?" He asked, moving away from the punching bag. "As a matter of fact, I don't want to talk to you or anyone, right now" she sta

    HAZEL Taking a deep breath, I knocked on the door of my husband's study. I was nervous. How well was he going to accept what I was about to tell him? I froze when I remembered that today was supposed to be our first anniversary. It wouldn't make sense for me to tell him now. Earlier, I had a meeting with the wives of the generals and that meeting had taken nearly the whole day."Your highness?" I turned to look at Gwon, my new bodyguard. "Yes?" "His Majesty has requested for your presence. He is in the east wing garden." Gwon escorted me to the garden where Yuka had prepared a romantic setting. The beauty of the sunset was in full display as well. Yuka rose to his feet and made me sit in front of him. "How was your day?" I asked as we ate. "It was quite long" he responded. True, he was busier than ever these past few days. "How about you?" He asked me. "I had a long meeting with the wives of the generals. It went well" I told him. He nodded in understanding. "I'm sorry I for

    "Marry me, Hazel" Those words made Hazel's heart skip. This was it. She would finally become Yuka's. As soon as she parted her lips to give him a response, the door was pushed open. Nazu and Caden walked in. "Hazel, are you alright?" Caden asked, a worried look on his face. "I'm fine. It's all over." A smile tugged at his lips. "You truly have the spirit of a fighting queen, Hazel. You should marry my brother already" he said and she laughed. "He was just asking me to marry him" she said and his eyes widened. His gaze rested on Yuka who was glaring at him. "Oh...sorry. I ruined the moment, didn't I?" Caden mumbled. Hazel turned back to face Yuka. "Yes, I will marry you. Isn't it obvious?" She said, giving him a chaste kiss on his lips. Yuka wrapped an arm around her waist."Don't tease me if you aren't ready for the consequences" he whispered in her ear and she smirked. "My apologies, my dear."She sounded smug but Yuka didn't mind. "Hazel, can we...talk?" Nazu asked. "Sure

    Jotham, Silveran Capital. Hazel blinked, taking in the sight of the garden she found herself in, alongside the others. With three main black bloods in the group, they had shared themselves and teleported all at once. "Are you alright?" Liv asked General Barron who looked a little winded. "I'm fine. I have never experienced this before. I just need to catch my breath," he said.Behind him, the Spiers triplets were doubled over, hands planted on their thighs. They were winded as well. They had insisted on taking part in the fight.Violet, Kai and Lhyle stood side by side. Rhen, Charlotte and Alyvonne were in the same group. While Hazel, Yuka and Kyan were in a group of their own. "So, this is Silvera's palace?" Shade asked. Hazel nodded in response. "It looks pretty huge" Trey commented, unsheathing his sword. "We are in a real war for the first time in our lives. This is crazy" Carl stated. "You can back out if you want to. You don't have to do this" Liv said. "Don't say that.

    Silvera's capital. "I have made my decision concerning your wedding with Anya" Clarice said to her son. She was sitting in the throne room and Caden was standing in front of her, his head lowered. "What decision have your made?" Caden questioned, his shoulders stiff with tension. "Your wedding will be postponed" she said and he looked up quickly, his puzzled gaze meeting her blank ones. It was unlike her to do something like that. Within the past weeks, she had been reminding him of the fact that he was going to get married soon. "Postponed? Why is that?" He asked. She shrugged. "Just because."He frowned. "Why now?" She rose to her feet and walked towards the double doors that led to the South wing garden. "A major event is going to happen soon. I shouldn't count my chickens before they hatch" she commented. Caden's frown deepened. He wondered what she was up to. Whatever it was couldn't be good. "I heard about the troops you sent to Anslem. Isn't that too much? Haz

    No one moved. All eyes watched the queen as she walked towards the huge portal that had opened suddenly. Anya bit her lower lip, tensed. This was not the first time she was seeing a portal that opened out of nowhere. But, this was ten times more horrifying than the ones she had previously encountered. And this one didn't look like it was going to vanish anytime soon.Clarice stopped in front of the looming portal and held out a hand towards it. A golden pearl which was the size of a base ball appeared on her palm, it's light shimmering like the rays of the sun. It was almost blinding. Most of the guests had looked away as a result of the intensity of it's brightness. Many other who were curious, continued to watch. "Don't be rude. This is not part of the deal. The time has not come. Accept this token of mine" she said and flicked it into the portal which shriveled up and vanished from sight. Clarice turned to face the guests, a cold smile on her face. "I apologise for the

    Quadam, Galactica. Hazel stared at her lover's pale face, her eyes brimming with tears. He was in a lot of pain. She could tell by how much his brows were furrowed. Liz and Yuka's mother sat by his bedside, their melancholic gazes fixed on him. 'He's dying' Liz's heart wrenching words were still fresh in Hazel's memory. She knew it wasn't the end. However, the thought of him dying made her heart ache. If he wasn't in so much pain, her grief would have been less heavy. "Seeing that look on your face is equally heartbreaking, love" Hazel forced out a smile at the sound of Yuka's strained voice. She had been so lost in thought that she had missed the moment he had opened his eyes and gazed at her. "You don't have to say anything, you know. You are already in a lot of pain as it is" Hazel's voice trembled and her eyes watered. Yuka opened his eyes again and squeezed her hand weakly. "It's not over, you know. You don't have to look so glum" "I know...but... I can't help it" she

    Quadam, Galactican capital. "I don't understand. How is this possible?" Yuka croaked and the red haired woman began to walk towards his bedside. She dropped down to her knees, the tears now making their way down her cheeks. "Forgive me, Yuka. Forgive me for being late" she said and Yuka curled up into a ball, his back to her. He clutched at his chest as pain ripped through him. Childhood memories slithered their way into his mind. He thought of how miserable he'd been, as a child. He thought of the number of times he was accused of murdering his mother. He thought of the nightmares and the trauma. He thought of his loneliness and the fact that he'd been forced to grow up too quickly. It was all because his mother had left him alone right after he was born. How was he supposed to process the fact that she was still alive and had left him to survive on his own?The pain in his heart swelled to the point where he was gasping for air. His chest felt like it was being compressed and no ma

    The knock on the door of Caden's chamber startled him into consciousness. After Nazu had left, he'd fallen into a deep sleep, due to his exhaustion and pain. He didn't want to get out of bed, so he ignored the pounding on the door. When he still didn't give any response, the pounding intensified. "I know you're in there, Caden! Open the damn door!" Anya yelled. "Go away, Anya" Caden said, annoyed by Anya who continued to knock on the door. "I swear I just want to tell you something important. You have to hear me out, please!" She yelled. Letting out a sigh, he got out of bed, gritting his teeth against the pain. He slipped on a robe and started to limp towards the door, his brows furrowed. When he opened the door, Anya's eyes widened. "You don't look so good" she said and he rolled his eyes. "You're the one who called me out. What do you want from me?" He said and she lowered her gaze, a worried look on her face. "You might not believe what I'm about to say" she said. "Get on

    Hazel remained by Yuka's side, her gaze resting on him. Once in a while, she found herself stroking his hair and whispering into his ear, assuring him that he would be fine. He was still unconscious but his fever had gone down by a few degrees. It was fortunate that Lhyle and Violet had returned right on time. Violet was a blushing mess and Lhyle had a subtle smile on his face. They had returned with both food and medical supplies. Kai ended up administering some fluids to Yuka through IVs. "I didn't know silverans used IVs too. I thought it's reserved for red bloods" Charlotte said. "Everyone can fall sick, you know. It just differs when it comes to the disease causing organisms" Kai responded. "His color is returning, that's good" Violet commented. Hazel sighed with relief and took hold of his hand, giving it a gentle squeeze. "He's going to be okay" she breathed and Lhyle nodded. As if on cue, Yuka stirred. Everyone rushed to his side.
