Chained to the prince of darkness by Lunasads (ebook reader that looks like a book .TXT) 📗

My knees weakened as I hit the ground. My tears blurred my vision. I was broken, betrayed.

"I was never supposed to be betrayed," I whispered hoarsely. More tears descended. Nothing hurts more than being told that whatever you thought was true, in reality, it was an illusion, a scary nightmare.

I heard Angie gasp as she quickly stood up, rounded the table, and crouched down next to me.

”Calm down, Sarah! Please! Everything's going to be okay!" 

Nothing was going to be okay.

NOTHING!

Reel of Words started playing in my head.

Your parents were not your real parents.

You were in danger.

Falcon was a royal.

Angelina was Falcon's sister.

 And—

 Your highness is asking for you.

 I'm not a human.

 I am Falcon's sister.

 Falcon is a royal.

Reality hit me. Hard, very hard that I almost thought I hit my head with a moving truck. Falcon was his brother, she was his sister, he was not human and—

I backed away when horror struck me. 

"Y-you are not human?" I gasped. The look on her face confirmed my doubt. 

Oh my! She was not human either. Falcon was not human. I had inhumane creatures surrounded me my whole life.

 
More tears started flowing. My breathing quickened, my hands trembled, my heart stopped, as everything began to clarify. I could feel myself panicking. I couldn't breathe, I couldn't process. 

"Lucifer will kill me. It was not supposed to happen like this!" Angelina's panicked voice rang in my ears. Her words were far away, somewhere buried. My ears refused to hear anything, my lungs refused to breathe. The blood pounded in my ears. My heart thudded in my chest. My hands tremble uncontrollably.

My mind stopped as my eyes rolled back. My body shut down. And for once in my life, I was waiting for darkness to consume me. Before drifting off to darkness, warm, huge pair of hands enveloped me. 

But one thought still lingered.

Why was I here?

Unknown’s p.o.v

”I send 'the letter' you asked me to send, he will receive it in no time." He said with a formal tone. After getting no response, he continued, "Your majesty, don't worry yourself, this time he will agree to your terms. He must be busy, that's why he was not replying to you", A man with grey hair said.

He has been trying to convince the man sitting in front of him for hours. But he knows one thing for sure, nothing can convince him. 

”Yes, I see, Alfred. He is quite busy. He has been busy since he turns his back to Arendal. He never replied to any of my letters." Kendrio said, his cold, harsh voice was enough to tell how unhappy he was. Arendal has been sending letters to the Reynes Kingdom, for ages, but they never get any answer. He was not okay with the fact that he was getting ignored, no one dared to ignore him. His words were law. 

Simple.

 "Maybe his majesty needs some time. Give him some time—" 

"There is no time. We need him here. We need him to rule. His was born to rule, why can't he get it." Alfred was rudely interrupted by Kendrio. But he didn't object. He couldn't object. He couldn't afford to anger his king. Not when he was out of control. 

Alfred could feel waves of anger radiating from his king. The walls of the throne room started shaking, indicating how much furious he was. 

”Honey, calm down. Anger doesn't solve anything, it builds nothing but, it can destroy everything", soft hands rested on his shoulders. He inhaled her sweet scent and closed his eyes, savoring her fragrance. Alfred could see his anger calm down. 

She always calmed him down.

If anyone could calm his anger, then it's his queen, his wife, his soulmate. Her soft hands moved towards his arms and draw soothing circles on his biceps, making his insides quiver. 

”I know, Aphrodite. But it's already been four hundred ninety-nine years, you know very well what will happen if he wouldn't come here. The prophecy will come true and it will not be in our hands to handle." He said with a heavy voice. He was afraid of The prophecy, he couldn't bring himself to lose everything. 

"I know what Prophecy is, that's why this time, I am going to the Reynes myself."

"No. You can't go there, you know how dangerous it is for you to go there alone." Kendrio's eyes widened at this statement. He immediately stood up from his throne and stood in front of his queen, Aphrodite. Aphrodite too left her throne and placed her hands on his shoulders. 

"I know, that's why I'm taking Artemis with me." 

"But still—"

"Do you trust me, beloved?" Aphrodite said, looking into Kendrio's eyes. Her blue crystals were captivating, hypnotizing. Kendrio gets lost in her orbs forgetting what they were discussing. Her eyes sparkled with love, one could easily be lost in her sapphires. A small smirk played on her lips. She blinked her eyes, and move her hands in his hairs, slowly massaging them. 

"Yes," kendrio breathed out, Realising what she is doing. She always does that. That's what she is famous for. This is what her powers were. 

Hypnosis.

She pecked his lips and smiled at him in victory. This is how she always make him give in to her demands. 

Her hypnotic powers.

Michael sneered at his opponent as he dodged another blow. He underestimated her. She was beyond good, he shouldn't have challenged her. Michael rolled down and kicked her shin. Artemis quickly somersaulted and landed on her feet skillfully. Michael began to remember his training. He started to think, to act instead of reacting. Artemis kept throwing punch after punch. Michael again dodged her furious punch and grab her wrist, and twisted it backward. Artemis hissed in agony as Michael put more pressure on her wrist. 

"Surrender" Micheal hissed in her ear.
