WARNING:THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS VIOLENT SCENES.
My whole world seemed to collapse when I saw the pain and hurt on her face when they found her in that cave.Her eyes felt lifeless, blood was bleeding from her Rose lips from being biten, her body covered with numerous bite marks and bruises from the assault.Even the small action like breathing came very taxing for her.
Her face gave a pained expression which killed me internally.
She was there, lying as though she lost everything in this world. I never saw her that way. I wanted to rip this whole world apart and torture those thugs till they beg to kill. Why does it has to be she?. I know I am being selfish but I can't help except feeling that way.
Only if I came earlier to visit her at the mansion then I could have a chance to save her. It's my fault for being late. I blamed myself. Probably I may not overcome this guilt this lifetime.
I was afraid to loose her. I don't find any words to tell how I felt that time. She was on her deathbed but one could see her stubbornness to live while her eyes filled with hatred. I wished I had the power to wipe her memory and live with her forever.
I didnt care what anyone said, I just wanted to wipe off all the negative emotions from her life. She was my Empress and always will be. But, I was wrong to assume everything was alright.
It was as if my lovely princess was lost somewhere. She was changed. She was there but it felt like she was distant, very distant from me. I started to know her activities from one of her friends, Lily. Every time I thought I got my love back, everything went downhill.
I saw her being close and intimate with Ronaldo. Thinking that he might become my love rival I sent him away from her. I thought everything will be settled once I sent him away. But that didn't go as I thought.
Lily told me Aeinshia was in love with Ronaldo and was writing letters for him behind my back. Yet, I still didn't give up on her. I thought one day she will understand my love for her and comes back to me.
Fate truly must have hated our love but, I wasn't going to give up on my love. Not until my last breath. I always supported her and believed in her no matter what. As I promised to her. I loved her from a far even though we were beside each other.
And finally I'm here, standing in my room not being able to do anything. Breaking the promise of always protecting her.
The day of execution-----
"Why are you doing this, my love? How am I going to survive without you? Even though you had no will to live ,atleast you should have thought about me . I loved you for my entire life. I am the future king,yet I cannot save my own love. I am useless. But, I will definitely prove your innocence no matter what it takes." Prince Evan thought before leaving off the execution grounds.
I saw as the announcer yelled out all the crimes Aeinshia never committed. A light breeze blew across the execution ground as no one spoke, only sound being the clicking of feet against the ground which was soon accompanied with the clinking of metal chains.
I watched helplessly as I saw the guards drag Aeinshia across the grounds to the execution plank. Her long and pretty hands were now bloody as heavy chains clinged onto to her wrists. Tears welled up in my eyes when I saw the silver ring on her finger. It was my first ever gift. It showed my love for her. I unconsciously rubbed the similar silver ring I had with my fingers.
Her beautiful face was filled with sorrow. Her once smooth black locks now disheavled.Her rosy cheeks were devoid of color. Her beautiful pink lips now dry and chapped. I gripped onto robe tightly unable to watch her like that anymore. She was harshly pushed to the execution plank. As soon she raised her head and her almond shaped Ocean blue eyes met mine, all the emotions pushed out of me. I quickly scrambled onto my feet and left the execution ground. Well, my mistake, I actually ran out of that place. I can't see it any more. If I was there even for a second more then I don't know what I might do.
.....
He went to his room, to the table drawer and brought a stack of letters with him. Following a smirk, his face gave the vibe of sadness. He went near the fireplace and bent down. Then slowly, paper by paper he throwed them into the fire. The sizzling sound of papers made his already broken heart to crack even more.
As the paper turned into ashes, a tear drop slided down his face. If everything went correct, he would have given these letter to her.
He only burnt the papers away, not the love for her. Why does it happen to me? What wrong did I do to loose my loved ones? Am I not worthy of love? . Thinking about them his eyes slowly drifted to sleep. Probably form today the dreamland might be the only place to give him comfort.
That night he dreamt of Aeinshia again. It was another one of thousands of dreams of them being together. But will they have the chance to be together again? Will he have the chance to tell her his feelings?
.....
Princess Aeinshia :The day of execution____
Was my fault is to believe an unknown person? To gain back my love?.Who was that anonymous person. If it wasn't for him to know my weak spot and use me as his shield I won't have been here. It's my mistake to act on the whim.
I want to correct them all. I want just one chance to prove myself.
As she was Reminiscencing her past the Axe hit her head. But the axe was blunt which was especially brought for her, brought to torment her.
She thought she will die in a single shot, but the axe rider was ready to take another round.
'only If I hadn't acted on my whim. Only If I can possibly go back in time, then I won't follow this same path and save my family. I won't ever fall in love so blindly .Nor with ..... '
bang~~
'you or with anyone else. I want... '
bang ~ bang~
'to redo everythin..... ' her body already beheaded and blood flowing like a small river out of her neck.
'I will definitely find you.... and give... you in thousand... fold what I got ", determined to take revenge on the anonymous person, she closed her eyes.
Probably dying was the only way to escape this cruel fate of her.
.....
I slowly opened my eyes but, quickly closed due to the blinding light. I slowly got up and saw my blood which covered the white prisoners robes. I was dead. Without getting any chance.
"Do you want a chance?" I was startled by the sudden voice. Even though I was dead, I was scared for my life. "Who is that talking to me?".
"That doesn't matter. You want a chance?" the same voice spoke again. I turned my head in all directions as the voice seemed to echo in all directions. I don't know if it was coming from outside, it seemed to come inside my head. "What do you want?" I asked almost in a whisper too, worked up to process anything out.
"I thought you wanted a chance to change your life?" I was suddenly attentive. But, I've acted enough on my whim. No more. I'm going to be in control now. Who was this to offer me a chance? That too for my life?
"I can control anything." I was taken aback by the statement.
"How?" There came a slow rumble suddenly. "I can rewind and send you to the time where everything went wrong. Would you like to change your fate?" Without thinking anything I nodded my head vigorously. But, "Why are you doing this?" I waited for a reply and felt a warm presence all around me "Because you loved." The warmth was gone and replaced with sudden coldness and my vision and consciousness was slipping into the darkness.
''I will change my ill-fate", thinking that I gave into the pitch of darkness that is surrounding me.
