Elizabeth was in her garden with her fiance, Alexander. Both were very much in love with each other and soon, they were going to be married soon."So, when are we going to get married?", Alexanader smiled.Elizabeth blushed."I don't know...a young lady shouldn't be thinking about her marriage""Then, I can talk to your parents about marriage", he joked."No! You can't waht would mother and father think!""That their daughter's fiance wants to marry their daughter and become their dear son-in-law", he grinned."You can't! Mother will think that I told you to say that!""Well, you do want me to say that, don't you my Elizabeth?", he grew closer to her."No, I don't", he was red with embarrassement and got out of the garden."Hey! Where are you going!"She would always do that. Most of the time, when Alexander said something like that, she would turn red and her heart beated so fast that she would want hide from him and embarassment. But he would always come and find her, that was their
After last night, Esmeray kept thinking about Arnold. His voice, his eyes, his gentleness and kindness, all seemed so beautiful and wonderful. She was not the type to fall for some prince charming, to her such men seemed unrealistic and empty. She was very realistic girl, who never dreamed anout some prince charming or some fairytale life. She knew that she would never find something above her expectations, there were two reasons for that: one, she considered herself not so much beautiful as her mother. She thought that beauty was the thing, people wanted the most. It was true to some extent, she had heard people saying if a girl is not beautiful, she won't ever get married. But she accepted her herself, even if she nobody wanted to marry her, to her self-love was important, that's what her mother taught her. And the second: she was the runway daughter of a princess, whose father was a baker, to people she was a disgrace and worthless girl. She started hating the people around her, th
Esmeray was trapped inside a coffin."Help! Help! I can't breathe in here!", she screamed.But nobody dared to open the coffin. Afterall, they didn't want to go against the Lore king, as she was his sacrificial bride. If there weren't any holes in tue coffin, she would have been dead, long gone. Finally they arrived at the palace of Maleficium. The Lore king was sitting on his chair, with legs crossed and waiting for his sacrificial bride. The people left the coffin there and rushed out, as soon as they were done. If they had looked into his eyes, they would have turned to stone. The Lore king came slowly to the coffin and opened it. Esmeray took in a deep breath, she was finally able to breathe but the Lore king's eyes grew wide in anger. "What's this!?", he screamed," so, you humans decided to trick me huh?!"Esmeray dared not say anything. He was a tall man, black-haired, complete red eyes with no whites and a handsome face. If only he weren't in a bad mood, maybe Esmeray could ha
That night, the Orison family went to the royal ball, even though they knew that, it was just mere excuse to mock them. But Esmeray had a plan in her mind, she would throw all of Diana and Elizabeth's insults at them. They entered the palace, wearing their best clothes. All eyes were on them, but they kept their calm, something what a royal would always do. When everbody arrived, the royal family came and stood in front of everyone."Thank you everyone, for being here", King John welcomed."Today a ball was arranged for every kingdom to know each other and so, we could join hands to destry Maleficium and the Lore king so; we could we could finally bring peace into this world!" he announced."What's this about peace?", Esmeray asked."Probably, this was about bribing the other kingdoms so, they could give us an enough amount of men, to destroy Maleficium", Arthur reasoned."Destroy? But that's wrong! Why can't we all live without hurting each other?", Esmeray argued. "Because living
"Your highness! I was just going to invite you!", King John stumbled."Really? You were going to invite me at the end of the ball?", he said."No! No your highness! It's not like that", he lied."Very well, is it true that you threw this ball to talk to the other kingdoms and join, against me?", he asked coldly and took a sip of his tea."No! They wanted me to! But I refused saying that we, two kingdoms are living with peace", he lied again.But this time, he took a piercing look at him."Your highness, are trying to turn me into stone?", he took his steps back."No, but you know, when you look into people's eyes, you find out if they're lying or not", he put the tea cup down.John couldn't breathe anymore. "But there's a way I can forgive you for this, I want a bride", he said."A bride?....Oh, yes! why not? I'll get you a beautiful bride!", John let out a sigh."Not just any bride, I want your daughter as a bride", he told him."My daughter!? But why?", he shouted. He raised his e
Esmeray woke up, early in the morning. Trying to recall what happened last night, but couldn't. She only remembered that after the ball, her aunt's words couldn't let her asleep and then she heard some noises, but what? she didn't know. "Esmeray! How long are you going to sleep?", Maria called her. "Coming!", she answered and went to her mother. As usual they started making bakery items, and started selling them. "I knew Diana would want us to come, only to mock us", Maria scowled."But you handled it very well, it was a great trick to throw her taunt on her", Arthur laughed."It wasn't my idea, it was Esmeray's", Maria said."Really? Our little Esmeray is getting big and smart. I'm so proud of you", Arthur hugged her."She's very sharp", Maria praised."Well, to survive in this cruel and selfish world, you must learn to be smart", she giggled.Strangely, there was a knock on the door. Maria opened it and saw, it was the match-maker."Arthur! Look it's the match-maker, she's here
When the Lore king found out that her bride was not Elizabeth but Esmeray, he was furious at this betrayal. He loked Esmeray up in a dungeon, where she kept crying and sobbing.At last, Isabelle, a maid of the Lore king came to his room and convinced him:"If you wanted a bride, then why does it matter that she's Elizabeth or not?", "I asked for Diana's daughter, Elizabeth that maybe she could take the plce of Diana in my heart but it's not even Diana's daughter", he sadly said and put down the pen, with which je was writing something on the desk."Then isn't it better that she's not Diana's daughter, or else she would betry you too", Isabelle stated.The Lore king looked at her from the corner of his eye."Well the, this girl seems nice too, by any chance do you know her?... could she be the one who saved you or else you would have killed her by now", she rolled her eyes."Yes...it's her, she saved me", he hesitated."And you locked her up in the dungeon! You should be ashamed of you
"What are you two murmuring about!?", the Lore king asked.Esmeray was startled but Isabelle aswered him as:"Nothing, my lord. Esmeray just wanted to know more about you"Esmeray glared at Isabelle but she showed no reaction and so did the Lore king. He simply averted his eyes from them, like he didn't want to know anything about her, or maybe he wasn't interested in their conversation about him."Why did say that to him!?", Esmeray hissed."Why not? That was the truth", Isabelle plainly said."Isabelle, you so.... straightforward", she let a sigh out."Yes, just like I'm supposed to be", Isabelle smiled."What do you mean?""I'll expalin later", Isabelle hissed and shifted her gaze to the Lore king..Esmeray was confused, there was a lot of things she couldn't understand. But she had one thing in her mind that, sooner or later; she'll find a way to run away.After the Lore king finished his dinner, he quietly got up and was going to his room. But as always, Isabelle stopped him aski

Her heart raced and couldn't breathe. After a few seconds, he retreated back."But! Does that mean... you can read my mind?", she guessed."It was time you figure it out", he giggled."I kept thinking about that!""Well...then don't you have any questions you want to ask me? "What questions?""About like, I'm I a human or a vampire and why did I asked a sacrificial bride?""I...""I know you have them, it's natural for you to be curious, but I want you to aske me personally...not through Isabelle", he emphasized on the last part of sentence."Umm...will you tell me than, if you're a human or vampire?", she hesitated."What do you think?""Umm...I think you're a vampire""Correct", he sighed and opened his moth, slightly.Esmeray could see his sharp, white and long fangs. He turned to her then."But I'm also a human, but my humanity is fading away, slowly", he hissed."But that's not possible!", she abruptly said."It does, but sometimes what we see is not entirely the truth. I was onc
"One day, you'll find the one meant for you", Isabelle smiled."Meant for me!", he mocked,"you know, I don't believe in such things""But you should! Fate and destiny exist! God has written everything""Neither do I believe in fate and destiny but also not in god!", he shouted."Gid created both humans and Lores, who else do you think created them?""I don't know...but if God exists then, why didn't he help me when I needed jim the most?! Why did je left me all alone in the dark! AnsWHY DOD HE LEFT ME TO DIE!? WHY ISABELLE!? WHY!?", he screamed."I don't know that but, you created me so, someone must have created you too", she looked down."You won't understand, Isabelle....let it go", he breathe out.Isabelle nodded and left.While there in Kestramore, in Esmeray's house, her parents were were worried sick."I can't take it anymore! John and Diana sacrificed our daughter to the Lore king!", Arthur screamed."Yes, but we can't do anything!", Maria said."Of course we can! We should go
Esmeray was walking out of the room when sbe saw Isabelle at a distance.She rushed to Isabelle and accused her as:"You sent in there on purpose didn't you!?""What why would I do that?""So, I could talk to him! You knew I would say something embarrassing!", she cried.""Embarassing? What are you talking about?", she tilted her head innocently."That neck tilt! That's the same thing he did in front of me!", she yelled and pouted."So?", she smiled cunningly."Now rhe same smile! You are definitely related. That smile shows that you two are very cunning!", she pointed at her smile."Well, what can you say, like a mother, like a son. And besides, you wanted to go in yourself, as you wanted to know more about him. Am I right?", she threw the argument back at her."That's true but-""So, waht about it? waht do you think about him now? He wasn't so bad afterall right?", Isabelle changed the topic."Yes but how did you know?", she yelled."It's obvious, you found friendly or else you woul
The Lore king stood up and walked to her. Esmeray was breathing heavily, she wanted to run but her feet froze to the ground. He now stood in front of her, and she witnessed how tall he was. He looked into her eyes for a while and she again got lost in them."You seem lost in my eyes""Huh!?", she came back to her senses and realized what he just said."No! No! I was just umm...", she couldn't find the words to feed him.He let out a sigh and started talking to her."Tell me, how did you come inside?", he asked."Isabelle told me to give you your tea", she averted her eyes."I should have known! Well, if you're here...tell me what was your name?""Esmeray""So, Esmeray...tell me, do you have any problem here?", he asked gently."No", she plainly said."Then are you happy here?", he asked curiously."WHAT!? HOW COULD I BE HAPPY HERE!?", she abruptly cried.Ths Lore king was annoyed by her now."Lower your voice! I will not tolerate this behavior of yours!", he warned her.She could sens
