CHAPTER TWENTYONE

  “Now I must do a few things, for now do your regular duties, Celeste is safe and sound as of now, but I want to secure the castle from any danger or threat.” I patted her on her shoulder and I walked towards the guards, Asiya did not follow me this time. “Elchrin, Anordy, how is it neither of you have noticed the people of Erena on our castle grounds?” There was silence, they sat on the benches on each side,  Their heads lobbed back slightly, could it be they are ignoring me, or maybe asleep. “I, as king Senya, order you to answer me.” I stared at them angrily as they still say nothing. I stepped toward Elchrin to shake him. “-There’s no point mi lord.” Barinors voice carries as he exits between them.

CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO

I made my way upstairs into the large bathroom at the end of the top floor, and all I could think about was the hot boiled water heating my cold prickly skin. I was walking down to the bathroom when I heard Asiya's voice in the room. "I thought you were going to help Celeste bring Fallynn back. How do you plan to do that from a battlefield?"  "Asiya, there's a line of duty here. I can't turn my back on something like this." Barinors voice was hushed but I could still hear behind the partly closed door. I positioned myself in ears range behind the wall beside the door, I wasn't one for eavesdropping but this seemed serious. "So you're turning your back on us. Again." Asiya's voice broke.

CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE

In whole honesty I’m quite frightened, who else in the castle was a traitor is there anyone I can trust at this point, I shake my mind away and back to the present moment, I shivered as she poured the boiling water into the metal bath, I undressed and got into the hot water, it was both searing and euphoric. I let the water take me under, feeling the heat all over my body, I shivered and pulled myself upwards, and I saw Asiya standing with her hand on her hip agitated, I wiped my face so I was able to see better. “What?” I asked as half my face was still underneath the water. “It wasn’t ready, yet.” She says, sighing. “I’m sorry, Asi, I’m just so, so cold.” I say looking up at her. “Where did he keep you anyway?” She asked, stepping toward the shelf, which held the w

CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR

Celeste's pov   "I understand where you're coming from, but sometimes we must make difficult decisions, we cannot abandon the country for personal affairs." He paused before continuing. "I know how that sounds." "Good so I don't have to tell you how much of a bigot you're being." I half-heartedly jokes. Passing him and walking to the balcony door putting my hand on the handle about to open it. "Celeste, wait." He tried to stop me, I let go of the door and turning around. "What, Senya? What's the point of being a queen if I can't even enjoy it?" I asked, annoyed. He walked toward me, taking my hand and pulling me to sit me down on the bed.

CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE

He stood staring at his frozen mother with a heart break. "She didn't deserve this." I walked to his side and wrapped my arm around him and he did the same, he quickly wiped a tear from his eye before it fell. "What do we do, Senya?" He stood there in devastation trying to think. "I'm going to make him pay." I nodded, my father went farther than I'd imagined he would, it makes me wonder if Mave has any idea of what is happening behind his own doors. "I have to make preparations for a surprise attack. If they see us coming we might not have a chance, they have magic users and who knows how many." He sighed, rubbing the frustration from his temples. "I don't think they have many, my father hates magic users, they execute w

CHAPTER TWENTY -SIX

  "Aris, can definitely be strong willed. Especially when it comes to someone she's attracted to." I teased him. "She doesn't like people often, usually she judges before she gets to know them which means she must really like you." "How do I make her not like me?" He questioned, sighing. Atticus placed cups of tea in front of us, I thanked him with a smile as he took his own seat around the white iron outdoor chairs. "Oh, come on boy, that young fawn is beautiful, wouldn't you want a beautiful girl like her?"  I placed a sugar cube in my tea As Atticus cut in, I couldn't help but smile as I stirred my tea. "Maybe if I was single, but I have a girl back home who is waiting for me."  "A girl? Why didn't she come along with you when you came here?" I asked, intrigued. "She has her place that she needs, so I have come here on my own." He says taking a sip of his piping hot tea. "I don't think you told us where you ar

CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN

After I explained what happened she went quiet, and deep in thought. "It looks like a rune for chaos." She says quietly. "Do you see how it nearly looks like a star dispersing itself out with arrowheads?"  She pointed how each one of the arrows pointed outwards, and I nod gently. "So what is the meaning of chaos?" I am quite worried. "It could have many meanings, I don't know all that much about runes, but maybe my mother does." She began to turn back to the door and I grabbed her arm in panic. "No, I don't want anyone else to know about this." I replied in a hush tone. "Celeste this could be dangerous, I don't think it would do any good to hide it." Asiya scolded. "Ple

CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT (EXPLICIT)

"Where is Isla now?" I questioned, as we walked to the door again. "She's in the next room over, as far as I'm aware." She says opening the door. We stepped out and went to the next room knocking on the door and opening it as I heard Ilsa call for us to come in. "Ah, your majesty, how are you doing this evening?" "Isla I need your help." My voice broke and her smile turned from upwards to down into a frown. "What happened to your pendant?" She questioned before asking anything else. Confused, I looked down at my mother's pendant, but it was no longer pure red, it looked as if black smoke was forming inside the ruby. I was at a loss for words, did the curse that I had put on myself caused this? Without saying anything I held up my hand to her, Isla's face turned to horror as she made her way over to get a better look. "My goodness child what have you done?" She whispered frantically, which was beginning to make me panic

CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE

We fell asleep and awoke to the harsh sin peering through the window, I had to blink a few times before keeping them open. Senya sprawled out over the bed and his head still lobbed over my chest, his mouth open slightly breathing slowly. It was warm, I felt like a cat laying in the sunshine that was very content. Truthfully I didn't want to wake him, I wanted to hold him closer and fall back asleep without a care in the world. He began to stir, rubbing his head against my chest, and he slowly looked up at me. "Good morning." His voice husky from induced sleep. "Good morning." I whispered back, he kissed me lightly before pulling himself up into a sitting position. Today is the day we say goodbye, the day that puts our love on hold, until he comes back to me, my love. He went to the closet and began getting dressed in warm suede and leather and getting his chainmail and armor on. Everything is beginning to feel much more real, Senya is leaving to a war that would have never sta

CHAPTER THIRTY

I could hear everyone's voices hitch in their throat and Asiya tried to save me. "It's quite hot out today isn't it, your Highness you must be hot in all that metal." There was no response except one. "She's a witch!" I closed my eyes in defeat as everyone began to talk over each other. "So the rumors are true?" "Burn her at the stake!" "How dare the king puts us in her hands!" "She will kill us all." "I'm not listening to a witch." I stayed at my little spot on the river bed, I don't dare move, it's too late they all hate me now. "You will do as she permits you to do while I'm away, in fact even when I'm here you will as well." Senya's voice echoes over the muddy terrain. "Your Highness, she's a witch!" One man yelled over the crowd. "No, she is also your queen, my wife and she will protect this kingdom no matter what. That is what she showed me." He continues. My hand, floating on the water as my tears dripped into the river. I never meant any harm and yet, still I s
