All Chapters of My Once Upon A Time: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

I think my expectations where a little too high when I expected the bath to wash away the stress. If anything while I was in there I stressed more. My mind is a muddled mess and to be completely honest I'm scared. This day started off magical. A fairy tale come true. But in no time things changed so drastically and became dangerous. I should be able to handle my own. I needed to be able to help these faeries. This is all because of my father and his minions. They want me and because I don't now how to defend myself and have no clue as to what is completely expected of me I am failing. And let me tell you I hate to fail. Makes me feel weak and I hate that.But my minds a mess and my body is in knots. What can I do? Needing answers and needing Dimitri...I slowly made my way across the dark room to the bed covered in blue velvet bedding. I curl up into a ball and for the first time I truly let it all out. I cry until I can't cry anymore. Drained dry. Despite the ache in my body and m

Still basking in our afterglow there was a knock at the door. Dimitri swiftly placed a kiss on the crown of my head and jumped out of bed. Pulling his pants up just before he opened the door. Where there stood Theo and the man from yesterday named Braxton. "What's going on?" Dimitri asked. I can see the tension that suddenly took place in this back. We both know this can't be good. Braxton stepped forward and answered. "There has been a development and we need you to come with us to the throne room to discuss our procedings." "Of course." Dimitri replied. Turning back to me he said. "Are you okay with me leaving you, love?" Nope. Nope, I was not. But I guess I really don't have a choice. Seems like I don't have much of a choice about anything anymore, honestly. "Yeah. Go ahead." I answer, but for some reason it hurt to even say it. Pulling the covers up over me to hide the fear I begin to feel. At that very moment a memory hits me. Back in Jersey not incredibly long after I

Allowing myself to sink into the hot bath and hope it washes away the feeling I have deep in the pit of my stomach. Somewhere deep down inside I knew that my dream was real. I was seeing it without being there and I don't know how I just know that it was real. And if it wasn't...it was disturbing. I'm going to have to somehow reach out to Rhonda just to be safe and to ease my mind. Lathering up and rinsing quickly I decided that I needed to get to someone and find out if there is a way to contact the outside world. As I was wrapping up into an emerald green towel that was set off to the side for me. Dimitri opens the door to the bathroom. "Looks like I missed it." he said as he walked over to me with that familiar glint in his eyes. He walked like a lion on the prowl and I was the prey. I could be shy. I could feel vulnerable. But all I felt was empowerment. This man made me feel things for someone that I never really felt I would be able to feel. He may have knew me my whole li

It wasn't long until I found myself in a room surrounded by old relics and artifacts. All varying in all different colors, shapes and sizes. There were many sculpures of the moon in each one of its phases. Each detailed so beautifully. There was even ones made of flowers and some were made of different color gems. They were a sight to behold. Along the white stone walls there were crowns. Each varying in style and each in their own display case with an interior light shining down on them making even the smallest of gems sparkle. There was an altar of sorts at the further end of the room. It was covered in a white silk fabric with green and white ivy vines wrapping around its four legs and acting as garland at its flat surface. There were soft white lights above the altar resembling hanging christmas lights. On each side of the table there were unlit candles. In the middle sat a ornate silver goblet and in front of that was a dagger of shorts with a handle encrusted with diamonds an

Clashing of swords and slashing of flesh. Winged fae everywhere either fighting or trying to escape. It was terrifying to see first hand what violence my father has been handing out all these years. Anger started brewing deep inside me. Something needed to be done. This had to stop. "We need to get you out of here." Dimitri said. Yelling over the bombardment occuring around us. "No way! There is no way I am leaving right now. This is my fault and the least I can do is try to help." Theo suddenly appeared in front of us making me scream and punch out my hand to his face in reaction. I made impact, but he didn't even looked fazed by it. Even though my knuckles were now throbbing. "Don't you EVER pop up again in front of me and scaring me like that, Ogre!! If I had a knife you would have been dead." "You can't hurt me princess." Was all he said. "Theo, how did this happen?" Dimitri asked. "The sky started to crackle and shift and we all knew that was a sign of the bonding. What ha
