* Crescent Pov *
I have barely placated my anger when all of a suddened a knock was heard in my room. I have questioned myself on whom would visit me but my question were answered when the intruder called my name.
I have expected that he would called but not this early. With a heavy heart I opened the door and invited him In. I watch as he entered and settled himself comfortably in the sofa. He was staring at me seriously and waited for me to sit in the chair across from him.
"I believe that you have already known the reason why I am here." he started. Since he said it that way, I am now 100 percent sure that I know what his talking about. Its that damn Marriage! My barely extinguest anger has raisen but I need to calm down. I would be in trouble if I accidentally angered him.
I nodded my head as an answer to his question.
"As you have heard, you will be wed to the first prince. 2 days from now your engagement will be conducted and after the ceremony you will head to the west for your wedding." he stated while seriously staring at me.
I wanted to object but then I saw my mulet in his hands.
His threating me!
He knows that I am against with this marriage but he also knows that I will obey him because he has my amulet!
This bastard!
All I can do now is angrely look at him.
" As I can see... you have already agreed with this marriage. Will, this is ended a good opportunaty for you. You have dreamed to escape this place, right? Now, you can leave. Let just say that your beloved uncle has grant your long time wish. So no need to thank me." smirk by my uncle.
" Will then, for your main goal. Look for those demons life core especialty for Touga's life core. Upon securing it, immeduately send it to me. I don't know how you do it but you must do whatever it takes to complete your mission." stated by my uncle
" But uncle, you know how difficult it is to identify their life core. They were demons! They are not the same with us."
" They were borned with our ancestors blood. Even if they were completely different from us they were still created the same way as our ancestors."
"But this is very dangerous! I may have defeated some demon clans but we are talking about the Royals of the West! The strongest among the five demon kingdoms! I could not even withstand the aura of that prince and now your asking me to deal with Lord Touga? This is suicide!" I automatically stop my outburts. No don't tell me...
I don't want to acknowledge what I am thinking about this moment. I feared that what I am thinking was the truth. I could not stop my hands from trembling. I could feel my sweat trail down my forehead. I controlled the panic I felt and look at my uncle for confirmation.
My world crush as I met my uncles gaze.
His abandoning me.
To fullfill his greed he does not hesitate to sacrifice his only niece.
Ha!... I should have already known that. Him, who was about to kill his brother for the throne. How can a mare niece be different.
I could not hide the horror and anger in my face. I bravely stare at him. Telling him how I have hated him through my eyes. But contrary to what I have expected, he bows his head and readied to leave my room.
I heard every steps he take to reach my door, before closing the door, he said something to me then afterwards close the door.
'Ah!!!!!!!!
What's this! I don't want this!
He has already taken everything from me!
My father, My mother, My kingdom, My future!!
Now his asking for my Life!!'
I could not stop the tears from flowing in my eyes. I have endured enough, just a few steps and I would be able to freed myself from him but now, how?!
I thought was already ahead of him but now, ahhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!'
I cried myself to bed that night.
Even in my dreams I could not forget his words.
" Seduce the prince and secure an heir. Maybe Touga will spare your life if he kno
ws that you carries his offspring seed."
