Kingdoms Reign

“You can’t be serious, Father!”  “You are the second born, Celeste.” He slammed his thick fist on the as his voice boomed throughout the room. “Its your duty to marry into another kingdom. You know that.”     I shook my head and gathered the ends of my dress as I spun away from him and stomped toward the door. “You can’t force me to do this!”  “I am your father and your king. You will obey me.” I could hear the smirk behind those words; he knew I had no more to say on the matter. My eyes narrowed into slits, and I turned and walked back towards him, standing tall.     “I might not have a say in your regard, but I am in the right to decide on who and who I will not love in my own heart.”     He scoffed. “You don’t even know what love is, girl.”     I quickly halted mere inches from him. “-And whose fault would that be?” I spat back, venom lacing every truthful word. Determined to

“Being his wife or not you still get recognition status, so that’s all that really matters. You should be thankful its royalty at all especially when your a witch like your mother was.” Ella says lathering my hair. My hands turn into fist’s of anger, clenching my teeth together, that she even has the audacity to bring up my mother in this conversation. “Ella, I can handle everything here on my own. Why don’t you go and make sure everything is ready for departure?” Aris asked, clearing her throat, standing up to take over her spot behind me. “We are supposed to do this together.-” Aris cut Ella off. “I’m fine here on my own Ella, you may leave.” That’s when she stood up and rinsed her hands off one last time before she answered. “As you wish.” She walked out without any other word slamming the door behind her.     “Thank you, I’m not sure how much longer I could have lasted with her without losing it." I admit feeling an overwhelmed amount of

"Going back to the matter at hand, how are we getting to Alastia? At this point the prince will lose his head!" Isla yells, changing the conversation back to our situation. "I have a way to get you all there…" Barinor says, taking a glance at his frightful creature. "You want the Princess to ride that, that thing?" Isla spat struggling to find a word for the dragon. In all honesty, I was quite curious about the creature, it's claws and eyes a tone of yellow, as it's scales from to bottom turned a dark green to a light blue of it's scales. The uncertainty of the creature also made me nervous. What if it swoops down like it did when she scared off the horses to someone else and they aren't as lucky as we were? "I don't see why not, her mother used to do it all the time. In fact Glyder isn't my dragon, it was Falynn's." We watched Glydor anxiously walk around in circles, making me wonder if the creature could actually understand our langu

"What are you babbling about, I'm right here, how else would anyone have known about the ambush?" I ran and gave him a big hug. "I'm just so happy that your safe." He pats me on the shoulder. "Do you know who did it?" Senya asked with his arms across his chest. Barinor shook his head. "By the time I got there they were all dead, however I was able to bring your stuff back, however it needs some cleaning up." He says looking down at me now. "Cleaning, why?" I asked without understanding. "Prince Senya, have you ever been to a fight?" Barinor asked, ignoring my question. I let him go and looked at my fiance. "Yes, it's a horrible sight."  "Then I'll let the explanation be up to you, I must go find a place for Glydor before too many people ask questions." He says getting ready to leave. "There is a nice cave nearby, it's pretty far into Bazalous Forrest, but there are beautiful gems and stones. I don't know the best h

"What do we do?" She panicked. "It will go out eventually, we can just keep people out of the room for now," I breathed heavily. "Okay but how?" She asked, shaking her head. I walked over to one of the guards. "There has been an accident in the room over there, please don't let anyone in for at least two hours." He nodded without another word and took a stance at the door. I began to hear footsteps coming down the hallway, and I turned to see who it was. "Barinor, hey."  He eyed Asiya for a moment and took me by the arm. "Come with me." He says pulling me down the hall. I looked behind us as we left Asiya behind. "I'll be back in a bit."  That's when I turned and went with Barinor down another case of stairs. "Where are you taking me, Barinor?" My voice echoed as the walls and stairs were turning into rubble stones in the circular stairway. "We need to talk, it took me all afternoon to find a place, bu
