Chapter 15: Crown Princess

2021-10-09 14:42:39I turned my head towards the newcomer. His air and appearance clearly screams his status. I think he's the same age as Demitri or Prince David. And by the looks of it, he must be related to Prince Javier considering that they resemble each other.
"Hello, Your Majesties," Prince Evan paid respect to the King and Queen. "It has been a while since we last met."
The King chuckled. "As you grew up, the more you resemble your father."
Prince Javier chuckled too. "Thankfully he is not as rebellious as me when I was on his age."
Oh. So this Prince Evan must be the son of Prince Javier and Princess Leticia.
"Only that I have problem with him sometimes when it comes to girls," Princess Leticia said.
Prince Evan faked a cough. "Please don't embarrass me in front of Uncle and Aunt, Mother."
"Do you think that is not my problem too?" the Queen smiled. "David and Martin

"May you be blessed a happy life together, son and daughter!" The King said to us after the rites which made me more anxious than ever. Can you imagine? His Majesty himself just called me daughter! I can't believe all of this is really happening."For the kingdom's longevity!" the King shared a toast which was answered by everyone."What happened to the other ladies? I don't see them anywhere," I whispered to Demitri."They were sent home early this morning. I gave them invitations for today's event but I guess they don't want to come."My jaw dropped. "You insensitive son of a witch. You sent them home that early and even gave them invitations? Tell me. Do you even have a heart, Demitri? They must be hurt because they were not chosen. What you did was like adding salt to the wound!""First of all, I'm not son of a witch. My mother is a pure blooded earth summoner. Second, I thought they w

"No. I want to come," I insisted.Demitri and I scowled at each other for a moment. His glare was never faltering, so at the end, I sighed."If you're concerned that I'd make a burden out of myself, then no need to worry. If ever something happens to me, I will not hold you responsible for it. After all, it's my decision. I'd be fully accountable of my own actions.""And you think it's that easy? We don't even know what kind of danger is waiting there. And you want to come?""Well, can you blame me if I want to do something? If I want to help?""You'd be a great help, sure," he said with pure sarcasm."She's determined. Why don't we just let her come?"I glanced at Prince Evan. Then I drifted my gaze back to Demitri with my brow raised."See? Prince Evan agreed."Demitri threw a deadly glare to Prince Evan. "This is a coup

Are you sure this won't kill both of us? I asked Raja in my mind. 'Why would we be killed? Think about who your companies are. The three mighty princes of Solterra, the strongest in their kind. Plus another prince who certainly has another ability aside from charming women. Do you really think they'd let the crown princess die?' Hmm. I guess not. But what if the enemy is stronger? What if in the middle of the fight I'd be alone and helpless? 'And why would you be helpless? You have your ability, Ophelia. Honestly, you can do whatever you want with fire just if you put your heart in it, like it belongs to you, a part of you.' I shook my head doubtly. I agree with that but definitely not now. I'm in the process of practicing my ability yet. I can't do big things. 'Trust. Just trust, my lady. If you just trust that you can, I know you can do it.' That somehow consoled me. After I packed a bit of things, I went down the hall withou

"But wait. Bordello?" My brows furrowed when I realized what word was used. "Oh. Sounds like a good place." Prince Evan smirked. He exactly knows what to expect in that kind of place. Probably because he's a regular or what. "Take note that we will not go there to have fun," Demitri said with a warning tone. Great. We will be going to a whorehouse, after all. "But this man named Orion, why can we only see him there? Perhaps, is he the owner of the bordello or just a customer?" "That is for we to know yet. The mountain spirit didn't go very specific. So I guess we have to find out ourselves," Prince David answered. The moment the sun rose over the horizon the following morning, we were already set to get back to our tracks. There was no time to waste considering the Queen's condition. The healers gave us more or less two weeks so we should get back as soon as possible. We stopped by the small community beyond the woods. And soon

"Blood of the Wise is a very rare wine, Your Highness. It's one of our collection, but we only have one..." Fear was evident on Orion's voice but he sounded like he was implying that he can't give it to us because it's the only one."I'm willing to pay. How much?" Demitri got something on his pocket, a pouch of gold I suppose, and it fell down before Orion's feet."We can give you more if you want. Just give us the wine," Prince David said."We're willing to negotiate in terms of the price, but we don't have lots of patient, Mr. Orion. I hope you understood what I'm implying." Prince Martin was dead serious as he said those words. Gone the playful smiles and smirks. All I can see now is a lethal prince who would not hesitate of killing someone."What is happening here?" I heard a new voice just a second after the door opened.We all turned to see the newcomer.A man probably around Orion's age. Tall, lean, wearing a black cloak and a black h
Last Updated : 2021-10-16The Royal Bride Chapter 21: West Evergreen Forest
The sound of birds and insects filled my ears when we entered the dark forest of West Evergreen, one of the few forests in the west that is situated beyond a river, and is not commonly visited by people for two reasons: first, because it's said to be cursed, second, because it is where the dangerous cave of the magical healer is known to be situated.'Now I'm not sure if this decision is right, Raja. This forest literally screams the word: DEATH.''I guess you are right. This forest is indeed scary. But you are already here, are you not? It is too late to back out now.''Don't you have any contingency plan? You know, like some sort of escape plan or something?''My apologies, but I have none, my lady.'I groaned a bit."Are you all right?"I cleared my throat. I forgot that Demitri is very close to me and would notice my every move or reaction."No—I mean yes, I'm all right. I just got irritated with the buzzing bees."

"What an adventure." Prince Evan hissed when a group of bats welcomed us the moment we went inside the cave. The bats were quiet thoughtful, weren't they? "What else should we expect here?" Prince David asked and had his sword ready. "Evan?" "My knowledge is limited, David. I know nothing about that matter. Why didn't you asked the nature spirits since you can talk to them?" "If they have given me answers, do you think I'd ask you?" "If I knew all along, don't you think I wouldn't have told you—" A loud, sudden rumbling made me jump. We all turned back, and there, we saw the entrance of the cave blocked by a wall of stones without even a small hole. "Great! We are trapped." Prince Martin cursed. "Maybe the exit is at the other side," Demitri said. "Or maybe that magical healer is insane and traps anyone who goes inside his cave and then kill him without effort afterwards," Prince Evan said, fingers playing on his

'How?' I asked Raja.'Blue dragons have only one weakness. Fire.'What? You should have told me earlier!'Even if you have the ability to manipulate fire, I don't think you can make an arrow out of fire. One should hit the eyes of the blue dragon with a fire arrow. It won't kill him but it can blind him for moments, then the princes can do something to paralyze him afterwards.'Fire arrow. I had never did that nor I tried. I also don't think I can do that, but...I looked at the Demitri... Prince David... Prince Martin... Prince Evan. They are all struggling to defeat the magical dragon in order to save the queen. Will I just stand aside and do nothing while th

The Royal Bride Epilogue: Forever Begins Here
I could not believe it. Marching down the long aisle, with hundreds or even thousands of witnesses, it felt so surreal. I still couldn't believe that I did really reached this point, that I am finally marrying the man I had ever loved and the same man I will love till I die, or even beyond death. I couldn't express how I feel. I am so happy to the point that I can't help my tears. Yeah, tears of joy. Why would someone so happy would cry in sadness in the middle of her wedding anyway? No one would. Especially not me. What I feel is nothing but pure happiness. My father, Orion, Lucia... my whole family was there. And the whole De'beuvor family was also present. King Arthur and Queen Romina had big, genuine smiles as they watched me walked towards their eldest son. Actually, Orion wanted to walk me to the altar but Father said that he should let me walk alone because he believes that I am a strong and independent woman who would shine better
The Royal Bride Chapter 46: Planning the Wedding
Demitri, his brothers and Prince Evan joined us in our table with Father, Orion, Lucia and her parents, Aunt Amelia and Uncle Benedict. I then started explaining to my newly found family what I had went, how I met Demitri and how I became the crown princess of Solterra. They all were surprised, of course except Orion and Lucia because they had known it all along. Demitri also announced to everyone that we are getting married as soon as possible.Marriage has never been in my mind ever since. It felt like I am too young for it and I still have so many things to do, to discover, to explore, without a man beside me. Before, I always wanted to be independent. Someone who doesn't depend on others. But since the moment I realized how I feel for Demitri, I knew then that I have no chance to turn back the time and avoid meeting Demitri with all my might. I have no chance of unloving him because he is the man who gave me so much hope and love. He sheltered me. He showed me the kind of
The Royal Bride Chapter 45: Please, Marry Me
I led Demitri to the palace garden where it was only the two of us who were around."What are you doing?" I asked, frowning at him.He gave me a serious and lethal look as though I have something like unpaid debt to him."Aren't I the one supposed to be asking you that? You just disappeared all of a sudden leaving nothing but a fucking farewell letter! Now answer me. What the hell are you doing, Ophelia?"I sighed. I was lost at words. Right. I know it was wrong to just leave like that after all we have went through. After all those moments we shared. But what could I do? It was the best thing to do at that moment! I can do nothing because I knew that if I would stay, he will die. I have no choice but to stand by that decision. Loving Demitri is a poison to me. I know that from the very start. I know that if I would love him, there is no way for me to get over him.He is the kind of man that once you start to love, you will just find yourself drown
The Royal Bride Chapter 44: Her Grand Celebration
With the help of Orion, I finally had broken the agreement between me and the magical healer. It was a relief that I was finally freed from that agreement that bound us at some way. I was relieved too that I had finally said to Lancelot what is the truth even if I knew it was very painful to him. I had no choice and I knew I had to do it or else he would just waste all his efforts and just be hurt at the end. I do not want him to go through such pain. It was already enough that he was frozen for decades and lost the chance to have a life with his beloved. I feel sorry for him but I know that the least thing I could do is to be honest to him, to say everything I know.Lancelot left Rousiana to meet his father. He was glad that I said the truth to him and was hoping to see us again. He also promised that he will try to live by the life he has now and try not to live on his past that he will not be able touch again."You look so beautiful, Ophelia! Before, I thought you w
The Royal Bride Chapter 43: All Truths Unveiled
I didn't thought that just one snap and my whole life would change. I never wanted to have great position nor power. When my mother was still alive, all I ever wanted was for us to be freed and live a simple life outside the palace. When I was left alone and realized that there was something I didn't know about myself, my goals changed and I then wanted to know the truth behind my identity and who my father was.But I never imagined that there is this kind of life waiting for me here. A life I never thought I had nor I ever dreamed of. I only wanted a simple life, away from complexity of the lives of those in the high society. Although I didn't want to be part of a royal family by marriage or by blood, I am happy that I had finally met my father and my brother. It wasn't a dream this time. It's very real and I couldn't ask for more but to be with them."I can't believe it, Ophelia! It must be the reason why I felt like we are connected in some way I can't name. I
The Royal Bride Chapter 42: Daughter of the King
"Ophelia!" Orion called my name in horror and immediately went to me.I lifted my head and told him, "I'm okay. Go to Lucia. She fought with Nerissa and probably got worse injuries."His eyes scanned the place at once. We both found Lucia down in the ground, her leg wounded and the way she looks gave me an idea how weak she is at the moment. She forced herself to summon her white snake, and I'm sure that took her so much spiritual power. It must have been hard especially that she is still so young."What happened?" I sighed in relief when I found Lancelot at my side. He is the sole reason why we are here, and thankfully nothing bad had happened to him or else all our efforts will be wasted."I don't know who you are, but please look over her for a moment," Orion said and looked at me once before he went to Lucia."He must be Orion?" Lancelot asked as he helped me sit down."Yes.""You look so weak, Ophelia. You vomited blood which mea
The Royal Bride Chapter 41: Raja's Fire Tornado
I already expected the worst and one of the possibilities I had thought was what Nerissa had just said. It could be possible that she would opt to kill us all since that is really what she wants, to kill, to inflict harm to others.But even if I had already seen this coming, I still said what was in my mind, I still hoped that I would get a different kind of response wherein it will not be necessary to engage into a fight with her in which our side has only a fair chance of winning, but not really sure. If only I face Nerissa myself, I would not hesitate, but on this case, Lucia, Orion, Lancelot... all their lives will be put at stake.All of them are already friends to me, that is why everything is worth the try."If that is your decision, then, we will have no choice but to force you," I said."Force me?" Nerissa laughed. "How will you be able to force me? I know that you are the mistress of fire because you
The Royal Bride Chapter 40: Evil Witch's Den
The moment the three monster guards saw us approaching, they immediately sauntered forward to attack."Let me handle this. You two go in first. I will follow after I kill these monsters," Lancelot said before he touched the stone near him and made a long and huge axe out of it."You sure?" Lucia asked.Lancelot smirked. "Don't underestimate me, young princess."Lucia's eyes widened. "Young princess? How did you—""Go now," Lancelot cut her off before he leaped to face the monsters head on.I didn't waste any time and pulled Lucia towards the entrance of Nerissa's den. As expected, it was the part of the River of Flames with the most fire. A norma person would surely not take it. But because I can manipulate fire and I'm protecting Lucia, we are able to successfully infiltrate it."Do you feel hot or burning?" I asked Lucia to make sure."No. I feel warmth, but not to the point that I feel burning so you have nothing
The Royal Bride Chapter 39: In a Pool of Hot Lava
I could see that Lancelot loves Dahlia so much. How could I have a heart to fool him and pretend that I am the love of his life? He is so good to me and I know that he is really a kind person. I don't want to fool him but what can I do if that was the agreement I had with the magical healer? If I won't follow what we had agreed with, I'm afraid someone else has to pray the price which is the thing I will never want, especially if it is Demitri's life that will be put at stake."I really wish we could get out of here as soon as possible so that I can go find and save Dahlia," Lancelot said in a hopeful tone."I hope you would be able to find her. You are such a good man, Lancelot. You deserve happiness.""Thank you, Ophelia. If you didn't come, I don't know how long I would be frozen or if I would ever wake up. I owe you my life that is why I will give all I've got to help you and your friends.""Thank you, Lancelot.
