I cut off his sentence by saying, "Really Levin, you are second in charge of one of the strongest kingdom if not the strongest and this is the stories you tell?" I say sarcastically as a rhetorical question.
He huffs and says, "If we're the so-called strongest kingdom how did the queen escape after one night as the queen? Not to mention there's a war threatening because the neighboring kingdom sees this as Nothmere weakening? As well as the fact that the guards simply let her leave?" He says smartly, I can see the smug look on his face.

The Forgotten King Chapter 36: Black-haired stallion
His medium-length; wavy; black hair flows through the wind. Slight sweat droplets coating his forehead, along with his chest. His black stallion's hooves hit the ground hard as he gallops around in the forest. You can hear and feel the heavy thump of his powerful feet. His black button-up's first three buttons are undone, showing off his drenched; muscular chest. He notices the other group of horses coming his way and shoots the young lady a flirty wink making her cheeks coat red. He then slows down and comes to a stop in front of the two and climbs down his horse. The other person than the young lady, a guard snorts at her blushing. The younger--but still an adult woman merely gave a dismissive hand wave at him. The man makes his way over to the damsel. Softly taking the young lady's hand and kissing each knuckle. "What is a fine lady like you doing on the outskirts of town?" He asks, his voice is rough; rasp; ravenous; voice. The point is his voice was

Before I can say anything to my queen a hand reaches out and grabs her. My dear is shocked out of her gaze. Kathleen enters back into reality as she and an unknown woman run back into the woods. My heart clenches at the fact that she has to leave my side, or that she might be in danger. I can only hope that Levin stops her and protects her.I am then escorted, or rather shoved and pushed, into the tent and forced into a seat across from Leon. "Your guards are quite aggressive, they sure can be glad I'm here to make peace. I wasn't I'd have just slaughtered them," I say in a low chuckle, a slight threat hidden in my voice. I began, saying it as if it was nothing."So peace is what you're here for? Not to catch up with an old friend?" He asks in a joking tone with a chuckle. I laugh with him until I abruptly stop, turning serious. Causing him to look at me questioningly. "You stopped being a friend when you crossed my borders with thousands of men as a threat," I s

Levi's beautiful blue eyes seep into my own. Entrancing me and begging me to stay, to go back to him. I almost did, I almost lost my senses and ran into his arm. I would have hugged him as I cried into his arms, sobbing an apology. That would have happened if it wasn't for Leigh reaching through the tent and grabbing my arm. My body craves for Levi's warm presence, a need to be with him. To feel his soft kisses on my skin. His coveted for intertwining body. My whole being wants him and only him. So when Leigh takes my arm and runs off into the woods, it makes me just a little angry. We come to a stop and Leigh pants out for a bit. When she excitedly starts jumping, "We did it!" She says, holding her hand up to give me a high-five. I look at her with rage. Outright, sheer animosity, "What the hell?" She says, her eyes going wide. That causes me to furrow my eyebrows. "What do you mean, what the hell? You just took me away from my hu-" I caught myself

"Yeah, I'm fine," I say, smiling at Leigh, "Don't really have a choice to feel otherwise," I say with a chuckle and she simply just laughs with me. "Don't we all?" She questions with a small, light, laugh. I look up at her and shake my head. "I'm so tired," I add, my hands in my head.She chuckled and sat down next to me, mesmerized by the water as she thinks of the right words to say. "You had a full night's rest. Why would you be tired?" Saki frowns, looking over at me. I shake my head, "I keep having weird dreams. Makes me emotionally tired." I sought out."Why is that?" I sigh, "I'm not sure why I keep having dreams. I've learned over time that dreams hold extreme meaning. I just don't know what the meaning behind them is." I give a shrug, biting my lip. "And the other thing?" Leigh nodded over to me. I don't know if I trust her enough for that just yet.Looking back at the water as I think back at all the things that happen in my life, "I've always

"Thank you" I smile at her and then I frown. "Where is 'your girl' anyway?" I ask making quotation marks with my hands. I look over at her. Saki's Asian eyes already sparkling with excitement to talk about her love. I used to know the feeling."What's with the quotation marks?" She asks with arms crossed.I give a shrug. "You haven't said her name yet." Leigh's pinks lip takes a sharp intake. She crosses her arms. "I presume you're right. I'll tell you when you meet her." The girl nods with a smart smile.When Levi and I started dating I couldn't shut my mouth when I talked about him. He'd be by my side everywhere I went. Now that I think about it, was that really such a good thing? Did he do it in a kind of cute and caring way? Or did he do it to make sure that I didn't run away as I have now?"She is actually the chief of EagleWatch's right-hand man's daughter." She says a jump in her step as we make our way to the cave. I nod and smile, showing that I'm

The commotion of the moving soldiers is just perfect for horse stealing. Tallgrass and thick forest cover us slightly, along with flushed sunshine. Still, it's cool here outside. The sound of a large army marching in the background can be heard. Not only that, however, birds chirping as well. Nonetheless, the sun's close to setting. The smell of the forest enters my nares. The subtle musk of damp bark and wildflowers is present in the surrounding air. My stomach rumbles, I haven't eaten but I will try my best to keep going. Yet I still feel heavy. The feel of sharp rocks piercing my skin hurt, nonetheless I keep going. I turn to Leigh as she inspects what used to be where the tents set up. There's only one left really, King Leonardo's tent. All the soldiers are ready to go and the group that went out with the hostages has already left. Slowly and steadily the king's tent was being gathered up too. We wait just a little while longer. While we wait I contin

I exit the tent, the knights looking at me with shock as I come out completely aces. My long legs carry me over to the woods. The same woods that I saw Kathleen go into and the one Levin is located at. There I find the old woman and Levin sitting in silence."Where is Kathleen?" I ask, irritation thick in my voice. Levin's eyebrows furrow, "Did a snake get in your boots? Why are you so upset?" He already questions me. I roll my shoulders, trying to hold myself back. Releasing some tension I had. "Answer the question." I command him."Whatever do you mean? Kathleen did not come this way." He asks and then answers, his horse neighing. He pulls him and they stand still once more. "She must have gone the other way," I say with a disappointed sigh. My shoulders slaking.There is an earsplitting saturninity; sullenness; and lull. Before long I hear Aphy's old but still elegant voice say, "If you do not mind me asking, what is it you are seeking for? I might be able to

It was a quiet ride all the way to Eaglewatch. Yet at some point during the night we both saw a bright flash. It was only there for a few seconds before it left. We tried to ride through the night, however, exhaustion got the hold of us. Leigh, somehow, got a vine from a tree and tied up our horses. I didn't make a fire. It would have made our place known. The next morning we went full speed ahead for our trip. We didn't know what was going to happen when we got to the village. We kept our hopes up. We shouldn't have because when we arrived our optimism was shattered. Leigh and I are conversing, deep into the topic of which was the most beautiful places we've been. I was winning on the wow factor. Levi had taken me all over the globe for many occasions. Yet, Leigh had the upper hand of experiencing so many cultures from a more in-depth point of view. Sometimes she would even have her girl there with her. I've always wanted to do that. Be that

The Forgotten King Chapter 56: Epilogue
Where there used to be fires as tall as houses and mothers running to protect their children there's now peace. The emanating fear of Alexander taking the kingdom over and the war running the castle flat there is now only calm. It seems to me that the mess has all been cleaned up and taken care of. I turn to Levi, our hands still twisted together. He looks down at me, his perfectly formed eyebrows raise. "What do you think happened?" He questions, shaking my head with a shrug. "I'm not sure." Suddenly I see Dixie running to us at full speed. She seems to have more royal dressed than she usually is. With the not-so-far distance, I also see a speeding Levin. He also is in much more fine clothing. Attire that we wear when we have a meeting with other royals. With extreme force, Dixie wraps her arms around my body. "Kathleen! I've missed you so much!" The short-haired girl exclaims while giving me a bone-crushing hug. I furrow my brows, huggi
The Forgotten King Chapter 55: Mortals
Golden clouds and pure, heavenly sunlight. Mountains, castles wast lands that encompass a beauty beyond the mortal mind. Fresh eyes with silky smooth and soft to the point of not even feeling the fabric gowns. Hair so feathery light, seeming as if it's made out of pure crystals. This is the plane of the gods. I just knew it. I know it by heart, Moon would take me here every time he missed his family. His mother, his creator, and the friends he'd made along the way. He'd make sure that the moon was perfectly in the sky until we left. So much has changed in the time I was gone. I remember all the time on earth and the time in the heavens. I look over to my side. There he is. The man with such a history in my life. He still looks the way he always did- as Moon. On Earth, he didn't have his silver glow. None of the humans do, even myself. I found it odd, there it's harder to see- rather feel- what type of person they are. Everyone had their own colour. Moon's
The Forgotten King Chapter 54: No help
I was just informed of the troops that were on the side of my castle. The symbols that they bore were proof that they are from Ladian. This caused severe panic within the kingdom and castle. For me, however, it was infuriating. I thought I made sure that they left? This does mean war. Yet not right now.As a result of the fact that Alexander is lighting the most populated town on fire. It's right by the town square. Not far from the castle. I'm sure that the enemies were instructed to make sure that they don't attract attention. Yet, they decided now is the time. The knights have already trampled the town by the right and left side wings.Things are happening extremely quickly. At this moment, I honestly don't know what to do. Usually, by this time, the darkn
The Forgotten King Chapter 53: End's Beginning
The next morning we all sat at the breakfast table. I expected there to be a sullen silence, but no, Dixie and Levin were chatting up the storm. Here I sit at the head of the table, the seat next to me is open. It's specially built for two head seats. Kathleen's sits open. The two first seats also stay open. It's etiquette, for if we ever were to have kids. Kathleen never wanted kids. She explained how she was scared of giving birth. How she felt that women are pressured into having kids. That it feels as if women's only value is to have kids. We haven't discussed who would rule the kingdom after we die. I suppose I won't die, I can only be killed. I've killed enough people for me to live at least another 1000 years. Probably plenty, upon plenty more years. Yet, Kathleen won't. She won't make it past 80. Then...I'll be all alone again. I didn't think of that, that night when she came knocking on my door. These two smiling faces in front of me also will die one da
The Forgotten King Chapter 52: Yearning
I didn't know why the dream affected me so. It makes me happy, seeing such an amazing sight. Yet it brings me longing, a longing for him. To see him, to feel him just to be near him. Anything for that, like my soul yearns for him. Is that right? Wanting for another man when I'm married. They do look the same, almost exactly the same. More than Alexander ever did. Also, why do I keep seeing the dream from Star's point of view? Shouldn't I be seeing it from my own view? That doesn't make much sense, I should be seeing it from the outside body. Or perhaps a side character. I don't understand any of it, but I do know that I need him. Everything about him is perfect and I need him. It reminds me of how I crave Levi. "Holy Star! What on earth is happening here?" I hear a voice above me. My eyes flash open and I behold the person looking down at me. It's Leigh, her eyes are big and she's looking around at the area by me. "It's so early, why are you guys a
The Forgotten King Chapter 51: The Key
It has been a day-long trip. Anna, Leigh, Kilyn and I have been travelling through these woods at a steady pace. Now, here we are at the old lady, Aphy's little hut. "That's strange. No one but us lives here. Nobody has since the capitol of Northmere's been built." Kilyn explains as we all start to slow down. The sun is about to set and I told them we could sleep here. I'm not sure what happened to Aphy. Leigh and I tried to free all the women who were being trafficked by King Leonardo. Yet when we got there they'd already been taken back. Aphy wasn't even in the tent when I was taken in. I simply assumed she wouldn't mind if we stayed here for the night. Heck, maybe she's even back here. I crinkle my brows at Kilyn's words. "What do you mean? Clearly, someone does." I point
The Forgotten King Chapter 50: Vanilla
I expected to find my kingdom's main square in a complete and utter kerfuffle. Yet it looks perfectly faultless. No fires, no dead bodies, nothing that could possibly cause an issue. That unsettles me, what could he be planning? Silence equals danger or at least some sort of horrible plan. "Why were we in a rush again?" I hear behind me, it's Aphy's voice. "His brother escaped," Levin answers his query. "Is that a bad thing?" Aphy sounds almost surprised by his reply. "Yes, it is awful! He tried to murder me and my queen. He wished to take over the kingdom and the things his mind is filled with are terrifying." My tone is harsh. They both go quiet, "What's the matter with you two?" They both give a shrug. "You're kinda scary. I'm- we're," he turns to Aphy and she nods with him. He then continues, "worried that you might go all...goopy," Levin seems to panic, chewing on the inside of his cheek. There's a stillness between us. "I won't hurt eith
The Forgotten King Chapter 49: Empty soul
The three people who were just talking their native languages turn and exit the hut. I gulp at their panic, could this really be that bad? I move after the stampeding people. They twist and swerve through tents and then later on through bushes and trees. We've exited their secluded clearing of the village. We then come up with a new reserved space. Anon I see people, a whole village of people, connected by an extensive ring. They all have food in bowls, eating and almost rejoicing the people they are mourning's lives. This is their sacred burial place. "I can't. Stop." I halt my pacing steps right there. "What's the issue?" Anna questions, the group of three turns to me. "I don't want to intrude on your cherished land," I reply, eyes wide with worry. They all look at each other, Anna bites her lip in thought. "I believe the people- and The Elders- will make an exception," Kilyn explains, hoping to hurry up as their finger is golden. "What if I accidentall
The Forgotten King Chapter 48: Returning to darkness
"What do you mean my brother escaped?" I command, but it comes out much more like a yell. There's a switch in my mind. The messenger quakes, his eyes grow big as I become even angrier. "The guards went to check on him. They couldn't find him and one of the guards went missing. They assumed that he had kidnapped him." He explains in complete panic.My body shakes just as much as the messenger boy, however, I'm trembling with anger. "Go, run. I'll be right behind you. Tell Dixie Donovan I'll be there soon." I command, shooing the boy away. "Levin! We must move, now!" I order him, my voice booming as I try not and attack someone. He plummets up at my yelling."Why? What has transpired?" He startles, jumping to his feet. "It's Alexander. He has escaped." I clench my jaw shut and pull my hands to fists. "What are you doing?" Aphy questions as I start packing up, completely blinded with fury. "Your hands!" Levin explains in a sheer frenzy. Aphy points at me, also to my
