Chapter 2: Memories with heavy heart
Amelia set out into the kingdom, to her favorite spot, located at the far end of the kingdom. It is a place filled with little innocent animals including birds. She loves this place more especially cause of the cool and refreshing scent of it and the breeze. She sat on the branch of a tree staring into space and allowing the memories of Prince Allan to flow in.
She yanked as she felt someone tinkled her waist, she turned to see her brother giggling,
"that's not funny, you know I don't like that",
"you need to see how your body jolted, are you sure you ain't expecting anything",
"argh", she groaned and threw a pinkish-powered ball at him but he ducked it. She knew he was talking about seeing an angel and getting intimacy even though it's only allowed with married angels but he just wanted to tease her. Prince Allan is the type that loves making her break rules and getting her into trouble.
" c'mon sister, you shouldn't waste your power like that, save it for more tinkles",
"I'll cut off your wings",
He flew to her side and take a sit beside her,
"you can always cut it off and replaced it with yours", he shrugged like it was a simple thing,
"in your dreams", she said,
He stylishly looked at her waist again, she hit his arm hard causing him to laugh knowing she caught him already,
"don't even dream of it, I swear I'll break your head",
he laughed harder," you are not cutting off my wings again?",
" I'm doing both",
He laughed again forcing Amelia to smile,
" but I don't like it and you know that you just want to look for my trouble",
"and it's like I'm seeing it already cause she's threatening to cut my wings and break my head",
"so don't you dare her ",
"but I can't restrain myself",
" Seriously?," she eyed him," It used to feel like a shock ...I just don't like anyone tinkling me ",
"don't worry, of course, I am the only one who has the right",
She eyed him but he winked instead at her.
Amelia was moved to tears as she remembered one of the days they spent on that branch, it was one of the days she could never forget. Every day with him is a memory she couldn't toss away. A drop of tears fell from her eyes as she began to sing. A song longing for his strong presence, wanting his company as it's something she always needs, a song remembering his childish demands and tease. A song that breaks her heart more cause the memories won't just die.
" I need you to do that as soon as possible",
"Sure your highness there's already a perfect opportunity to do that",
"Really?",
"yes, they're all just going as planned, please tell his majesty that very soon he'll receive good news",
"I'll gladly do that ",
". ..and I'm honored to have a visitor as mighty as you",
" of course, you should be, but I won't be coming anymore, I only came to see how things are going",
"But your highness, it's dangerous",
"when they recognized me", he said unveiling himself. He is a prince from the dark kingdom, he disguised himself and find his way into the portal. He handed over a small pot to the other man.
" guess you must be running out of one ",
He nodded in reply,
"make good use of it, I should get going",
"let me escort you, your highness",
"no, you can't afford to get yourself in any trouble, you can't get caught",
"but.....",
He raised his hand to shut him up when he heard a melodious voice singing. He looked around the forest to see where such a voice is coming from.
"what's it, your highness?",
" can't you hear the voice singing",
"of course your highness",
He began to walk towards where the voice is coming from. He halted on his track when he sees the angel. Sure angels are all down to earth, always beautiful and charming but this was beyond charming. She could make the eyes get addicted to staring. She is not only attractive, beautiful, and charming, words couldn't just express how captivating she is. And her voice? it's really what should be called angelic. The prince couldn't help but drool over her.
" Who is she?",
"she is Princess Amelia",
"Princess? That just makes it better",
"Does she has a suitor already or is she wedded?",
"no, your highness",
" not like I care even if she is ", he said with a devilish smirk. He couldn't take his eyes off her, the thought of having such stunning beauty in his arms, on his bed thrilled and sent sparks through his entire body. This is the epitome of beauty. The thought of her in another's man arm already makes his blood boil.
She is mine.
"wait for me my lady", he said with a grin.
Amelia proceeded to her chamber, she wants to prepare herself for the fight taking place the next day. She was on her way when one of the chiefs flew to her.
" my princess", he called with a grin. She stopped on her track and turned to him. He descended and stood on his feet. The white tiles was reflecting their presence.
" good afternoon your highness", he greeted,
" good afternoon chief luke ", she replied,
"how has your day been?",
"good",
"your highness...",
"all ears",
"Tomorrow is the day your Highness, that you'll be fighting Princess Tania. Your Highness, you should know I'm always supporting you and this fight?...if you... sorry to say ..princess Tania is very powerful and skilled, the chance to win is low and if you ended up losing, every hope of finding out the cause of Prince Allan's death will be gone",
Amelia faced him properly,
"so what's your point? you want to tell me to give up?",
"of course not, your highness",
"so what exactly is your point?",
"I have a suggestion",
"I'm listening",
The angel looked around to see if anyone is watching or eavesdropping. Amelia looked at him suspiciously. He turned back to her,
"I suggested that you...",
Amelia became eager at what his suggestion will be,
"kill princess Tania",
"WHAT!??", her eyes widened in shock. Her eyes immediately went to his forehead to see what reflection it is, black or white. but it was in color white. If it's still pure then how the hell will the chief suggests such an evil act?
"What did you just say?",
"the only way to overcome the princess and be able to find out the real cause of the prince's death is to kill Princess Tania",
Amelia quickly take two steps back, she got so confused and looked at how the chief said such a devilish or cruel statement without even blinking, and his forehead white mirror still pure confused her the more. What the hell is going on?
