-Karen-

“Maybe? I was only with Bart for two weeks before we sealed the deal.” She admitted with a grin. “I know that you’re worried about being used, right?” I nodded. “Trust me when I say Bart and Conor are shining examples of what a lover should really be.” I blushed again making her giggle. And what exactly is that? “Conor will make you want this more than anything in your entire life. I just know it!”

I felt my heart rate jump at the look on her face. He will make me want it, eh? We’ll see about that! “Take it from me, when I say that Bart and Conor are the odd men out in Zargan society. They care about their lovers and they want them to be happy and satisfied. I have no doubt that Conor will do everything he can to make you feel desired and wanted. After all, that’s the best feeling in the world next to being loved!” Joanne adjusted the dress I just put on. It was a light and flouncy dress. This dress is pretty cute. I felt like I was still naked even though I could clearly see

    -Karen-“Yes!” I sat down quietly and twiddled my fingers in my lap. “Those demons are nothing to mess with, Conor. Only magic can destroy them because they are born from magic.” I said darkly. I’ve watched them kill the townsfolk and I was powerless to help them.“I’ve not seen you become so serious before. Mind to explain what you mean about the demons?” He asked lifting the lid that covered my plate. I glared as he snickered. That’s my job!“Demons.” I sighed. “They are what Mages become when they lose control. If your soul jewel, or what some Mages call a stone or crystal, shatters, the only person that can bring you back is Eldon. As you saw today, he can revive a soul and make that Mage live again. The trade off is you lose a portion of your overall magic. Once your magic is completely gone, your time will be up and there will not be another revival.” I explained grabbing the small bottle of wine from between us. I pulled the cork out of the bottle and swung it back hoping that

    -Karen-“I wouldn’t call it a problem. I would call it ‘Karen’s plan for sanity’- Sometimes it’s the only way I can cope with the solitude and the pain I endure. So… May I have some more wine now?” I asked him with a sly smirk. I wanna get tipsier!He looked over at me and then without breaking his gaze on me, he opened the bottle and drank half. I frowned until he gave me the other half. “Yes, you may.” He replied chuckling. “That’s pretty good wine.”“Wine is the best!” I sat up and took the bottle from him downing the remaining contents quickly. I heaved a tired sigh and set the bottle on the floor. I could feel his gaze on me, watching me and my expressions. That’s going to becoming unnerving at some point. The only drawback with drinking so much wine at once is I would just blurt out whatever answer first came to mind. Oh- It’s hitting me. I'm feeling so relaxed.“Your face is getting red. Are you feeling okay?” He asked pulling the chair closer to the bed. Conor looked a bit ner

    -Karen-I tried to compose my thoughts. Hm. What all did she say again? “Well, she was asking if we have done anything yet like, uh… Something about kissing? And then she said we were cute together.” I giggled trying to remember the conversation. “She said that I should just give in to you because you can satisfy me. Whatever that’s supposed to mean?” I felt my cheeks get hotter. “But servants and royals aren’t supposed to mix like this- Ever.” I continued with a frown. “If I weren’t so low on the pecking order, I think it would be fine to be your companion. But I’m like dirt next to you…” Dirt next to a pillar of pristine granite.“You’re not dirt. You’re not even close to that!” Conor said curtly. His expression left me taken aback. Is he really serious? Why does he keep saying these things?“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to upset you, Prince Conor. I guess I- I just don’t see myself as something someone like you should be chasing after. I mean you can do so much better, but here we are.

    -Karen-“During the bath, Joanne said you changed your mind with me. Why?” I asked him seriously. You better be honest! I’ll smack the hell out of you if you lie to me, Prince Conor. He held a grape to my lips and I hesitantly accepted the offering. “Thank you.” He smiled and nodded.“I changed my mind because I’ve been getting to know you over the last few weeks. I like that you don’t let my title or status change the way you talk to me.” He explained as he opened two more wine bottles. “You sass me regardless of my title. I like that you’re witty and clever. Plus, you’re gorgeous. I like that you are honest and thoughtful too.”I felt my cheeks tinge at his words. Gorgeous and honest. Well, I’m about to give you some truth Conor. “You’re right about one thing- I’m honest. I think you’re gonna just use me for what you want whether you’re a prince, a soldier or a commoner.” I replied taking the bottle from him. He gave me a dirty look as he narrowed his eyes. Oh! I made him mad! Ha! “

    -Karen-Over the next several days, more soldiers arrived at the palace. The king found out that I was better so Conor had been called back to start drills with the new soldiers for a while. Conor was gone before I woke up, but he was back around three or four in the evening. Joanne and Bart kept me company while Conor was gone as much as they could. However, they had their own duties to attend to especially since the new soldiers were very rowdy and loved to brawl several times a day. It had become extremely dangerous with all the extra barbarians around, so Conor imposed a rule on Joanne and I. We were not allowed to be alone at all beyond either apartments or the medical ward. If we had to leave, we needed to have someone trusted with us.Conor had caught Lewis trying to listen in on our conversations resulting in him being arrested and sent to the dungeon several times. As a result, I had started to feel more like a burden, so I tried to keep myself busy by cleaning the entire apa

  • Lucevkin Dreams   I Hate Her!

    -Karen-It was late in the evening, around nine, as I got ready for bed. I layered several blankets on the floor in front of my armoire and got a pillow from the bed so I could go to sleep alone. It’s odd but I miss him and his warmth. I finally had a friend and now I’m alone again. Why do I feel like I failed? I changed into a frilly nightgown and braided my hair to prevent knots. I was tired and depressed from being shunned like an outcast. I was dumb to think I could be friends with a prince. Or anyone for that matter. I curled up to the soft pillow. I bit my lip so I could focus on that pain rather than the emotional pain I felt. See Eldon? Emotions are stupid and this is exactly why I don’t like mine. As I was falling asleep, I was strongly considering leaving in the morning after he left for his day. I could go back to my servant room in the basement whether I had permission or not. At least I won’t shun myself. But I’m definitely going to take a couple blankets since its turni

    -Karen-“You’re thinking about him, aren’t you?” Joanne asked spinning me around to face her. I bit my lip and nodded shyly. She gave me a warm smile. “I’m telling you, Karen. It’s gonna happen! I think you’ll enjoy being his companion. He talks to Bart and me about you almost all the time. He says that he enjoys your witty quips and that you make him laugh without trying.” I felt my cheeks tinge at her words. “Don’t be shy! It’s great! He feels very comfortable around you. Plus, you’ve undone all the mean and cold things Beatrice did to him over the last few years in just a few weeks! He’s back to his normal self now and we can thank you for that.” She exclaimed dragging me out to the table where breakfast was waiting for us. “Before you came into the picture, he was really aggressive and got very depressed easily. Those last few days were just a sample of how he was back then.” How awful! He has such a sweet smile too. I stopped for a moment at the thought. I guess I do like him a

    -Karen-“Nervous?” Conor asked with a chuckle. I felt my face get red at the question. “You’re still cute when you get flustered, you know.” That didn’t stop me from drinking one and a half bottles of wine in fifteen minutes. “Kay.” I looked directly at him as he flashed a charming smile. “I have something for you.” Something… For me? He went to his dresser and pulled out a small pink box from one of the drawers and gave it to me. “I apologize for treating you the way I did over the last couple of days. I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings and make you feel lonely.”“It’s not necessary-” I tried to give him back the gift, but he rolled his eyes and then gave me a playful grin. Damn you. That’s cheating! I scoffed and gave him a dirty look. “Fine! I know that look Conor... I know exactly what you’re going to tell me. If I try to give it back, you’re going to say that you’re the Prince of Zargo and I have to accept and use the gift you have given me. Right?” I asked with a raised eyebrow

    -Conor-“I have a terrible feeling about this Nathan. We need to go to her. As soon as possible.” Conor said pacing back and forth in front of all the Mages. “After she lost consciousness, Eldon came and took her away. All he said was that she was being summoned by a tree. That's when a portal was made for me to come back here.”Nathan's eyes got wide and he lost the coloring in his face. “The Tree summoned her?” A serious yet terrified look remained on his face. Alexander started screaming making everyone jump. A portal opened and everyone stood up while Joanne worked to calm him down. “Karen?” Conor asked feeling hopeful. Eldon walked through carrying her, but he was stoic. “She’s going to be okay, right?”Eldon gently placed her into his arms. He didn’t answer right away. “Not exactly.” The portal shut as all the Mages gathered around. “As you know, she won the war against your father with your help. However, she lost the fight.” He said quietly. “Senescence, has deemed that she i

    “Soul Release.” I whispered quietly. I watched as the souls compressed into different color orbs and floated away on the breeze. Bombs started falling around me while breathing became harder. “Healing Serenity.” I’ve used a flurry of spells and I still have a small chunk of magic left. I can easily get two or three more Master spells… I think. I decided to change positions so I could get a better aim at the last large ship flying around. I still have those small ships too… I took a deep breath and sent a Blazing Hypernova up to the middle area of the small ships. They all exploded in a bright flash and the wreckage fell to the destroyed town. I looked around for the large ship, but a bullet ricocheted very close to where I stood. Suddenly, more soldiers appeared charging at me.“Frostfire Surge!” I shouted angrily. All the soldiers shouted in pain and collapsed dead around us in heaps. I pointed up at the sky as the ship tried to leave again. “Blazing Hypernova!” Due to the high level

    -Karen-A blow to the back of the head put me on the ground faster than I ever thought possible. Blow after blow was delivered as I squirmed to get away, but Zachary pinned me under him and continued to land a barrage of punches. He yelled and screamed about what I had done to his family. I grabbed his ankle and let him have a taste of ‘Lightning Surge’. It bought me enough precious time to weakly get to my knees.“Recovery Salvo.” I shakily got to my feet and leaned against the wall, but he was no where to be seen. I looked around nervously, but nothing moved. I heard the bullets before I felt them. Hot metal burrowed its way into my right thigh followed by my abdomen, left arm and chest. I collapsed in heap trying to fight the massive amounts of pain I felt. “Healing Serenity!” I whispered under my breath. Damn, another healing spell… I whispered for a portal and fled to the shadows of a building across town. There were still so many ships in the air, and I was starting to feel the

    -Karen-“We don’t have a choice anymore!” I snapped back frustratedly. “This is it, Conor- We fight or we die- I’m not about to let him claim victory. There is going to have to be a risk in order to win this fight. I plan on coming back, you know.”“But what if you don’t, Kay? What if Eldon doesn’t revive you?” Conor asked firmly. He cupped my face and stared me in the eyes. “What if you’re gone forever?” What if… Such a big 'what if' and its running through my mind too.I didn’t answer him right away. “I’m going to die someday. I’d rather die fighting for my family and the people I care about than to run and live in fear wondering if today will be the day. As long as I don’t exhaust my magic and turn into a demon, I should be fine.” I’ve used a small bit of my magic, but I still have more than plenty. As long as I can take them out in fifteen to twenty Master level attacks, it should be okay. Permitting this doesn’t drag out for very long.I could see he was very much not accepting o

    -Karen-“Your sudden jerking movements re-opened a wound I repaired.” Bart explained as I lay still looking up at the ceiling of the empty crypt bed. “I stitched it closed but you can't be doing those type of movements yet.” I sighed feeling useless as another bomb shook the ground.“Let me put some salve on her stitches, doctor.” Valerie murmured rubbing in a sweet smelling cream. “This should help numb the stitches so they won't hurt if you do have to move.”“Thank you both.” I replied, slowly sitting up. “Those bombs have been falling for the last three days now. How much more punishment can the main floor of the Crypts take?” I asked Nathan, feeling uneasy about our situation.I could see that Nathan was very reluctant to answer. “It probably won't be much longer, honestly. We have to make some hard choices now. The only other place we can go is the Forest and that has its own set of challenges and hazards as you know.” He heaved a heavy sigh, rubbing his face from the growing pre

    -Karen-At the snap of my fingers, my brother’s arms were torn from his body. Screams of agony echoed around me while the soldiers took aim at me. A soldier was yelling, but I paid him no mind. I heard the same soldier call my brother’s name, Marcus, telling him to hold on. I giggled softly enjoying this scary side of myself and met Marcus’s now terrified yet agonized gaze. “Marcus… I’m going to annihilate you and as I do, I will make sure that your soul quivers in unimaginable terror.” He some how lost more coloring in is face at my calm words“Ground Spears!” I shouted angrily punching up into the air. The soldiers that surrounded us were now high up on the points of the spears with blood gushing and dripping down the jagged rocks, more groans and moans of pain filling the air which was tainted with the scent of blood. “Soul Snatch!” I ripped the wispy soul out of the body, and he looked terrified. “Soul’s Doom!” Just like before, a white demon charged right at him and shredded his

    -Karen-I woke up enveloped in warmth, but I was extremely sore. I really felt like I hit every tree branch coming down from that fall. So sweet- He changed my dress. The orchid under dress. I looked over to my right and saw Conor and Alexander cuddled up next to me both sleeping with their mouths open. Ha- My loves. “Conor!” I whispered softly. I tried to roll over and found out that was a mistake. Ah! I’m still busted up pretty badly… I grabbed his hand that was cupping my left cheek and gently squeezed it. Wake up!Without opening his eyes, “You’re the most recklessly insane person I know, Karen Anne Elizabeth. That was awe-inspiring, terrifying and thrilling all at once, but I don’t want to repeat that any time soon.” Conor said rubbing my cheek with his index finger. Mm. So warm… “We’ve only lost two ships in two separate incidents before but that was insane!” He opened an eye and leaned into me. “You have a lot of injuries still. You broke lots of bones. Bet you’re sore?”“Very!

    -Karen-Conor groaned while rubbing his face and then looked up at me. He rubbed his eyes again. “Is that really you, Kay? You’re not an illusion, right?” He whispered sitting up quickly and grabbing my left hand pressing my palm to his lips. “You know I’m not upset with you- Don’t you?” I dropped my gaze feeling so much shame as I stood before him. “I-”“You may not be upset but I am.” I interrupted quietly. “I just see myself punching you and then charging at Joanne and then the nightmares I had. I may not be cursed anymore but the weight of my guilt is so heavy. I feel like I should just die and end everything once and for all. But that wouldn’t be fair to you or to Alex.” I closed the gap between us and hugged him tightly. “I love you Conor. I love you and I hate that I only hurt you… I feel like I do nothing but that.”He was silent but he held me tightly to him after he pulled me onto his lap. “I wasn’t sure if I was going to get this again.” Conor kissed my cheek and nuzzled my

    -Karen-Sweet kisses on my lips woke me up though it took me several minutes to realize I was in bed next to Conor. As soon as I did, I tried to move away from him. “Ah ah ah!” He captured me quickly and pulled me back to him. No. Please don’t!I completely avoided his gazes and wouldn’t let him kiss me at all. “Karen- You won’t even look at me.” I could hear the disappointment in his voice. “Alexander cried all night after you left. Will you at least hug him?” I shook my head. “He says Mama now.” I don’t care. I can’t be here anymore! I only hurt you. I can’t continue to be a danger to you and everyone else here.I took advantage of the situation and pulled away from him. “Karen! Wait!” I left the tent as quickly as I could hearing him following me. “Please just listen to me!”All eyes were on me and it shot me right back to the memory of charging at Joanne. I dashed to the clearing and left the camp as fast as I could. I raced back to the Royal Crypt, crying the whole way. The guilt
