"Hey its okay, what's important is that you're safe and you've learned your lesson otherwise you wouldn't be sorry right now"
"Thanks, mom, I love you so much and I'll try to make it up to you I promise."Now, I love my daughter but as her mother, it's my responsibility to see to it that she learns from her mistakes.
" what were you thinking!! "She flinches, good" do you know how dangerous it is outside there! what if your guard hadn't seen you what would have happened in the forest! Damn it Hades!!"oops, I didn't mean to curse like that, but what can I say, it happens when I'm mad I just become the sarcastic me, the real me.
"Mom I'm sorry" I sense her sincerity"I'll never do it again..
"I hope you have learned the consequences of your actions and not apologizing because you saw those vile creatures" we embrace
" No mother, I'm sorry because I love you and don't wish to put you in danger ever again, I was wrong and I'm sorry for that"
She looks like her father more and more every day, the same golden hair. How I miss you, Percy, our daughter has is beautiful she has my golden orbs but you could see the specks of blue in there. Her skin is an almost pale cream blend, a mixture of her parents' own. I think its time she found out, it'll be easier to protect her then because she'll know she needs it, her life needs it
"Can I ask you something, mom?" I think I know what's to come.
"You already did but save for that I love you, what is of concern?"
"Where did you get those powers, better yet where did I get them".
I can't help but gaze upon the ceiling, let me tell her anyway.
" Okay, I'll tell you "
"Wait, is it a long story or a short one?"
"Do you wish to know the truth or not!" I snap
"OK OK tell me" she immediately speaks up...tsk tsk tsk teenagers nowadays, no form of mannerism.
" Your real identity is 'PRINCESS VIOLETTA VIOLET PEARLSIS THE FIRST'"
"You're joking right mom" she gives a shacky laugh...my Vivvy.
"daughter of 'PRINCE ARVAN PERCY PEARLSIS THE SECOND' you're royal.
" if I'm a princess then what are you? "I must tell her everything.
"the daughter of the 'THE DEMIGOD LORD ARMOUGORD and THE GODDESS HILDA', for all-purpose it's safe to say I'm 'THE GODDESS PRINCESS SOPHIA SAPPHIRE PEARLSIS/ARMOUGORD" I could almost hear the gears working in her brain as she processes this.
"Why didn't you say all this before!" I was surprised by her sudden outburst" you should have told me!" she has to understand.
"Your father 'PRINCE PERCY' helped me escape from his stepmother 'THE QUEEN MYTHIA' and his father 'LORD ANDERKNOX', they were going to kill you" she visible shudders.
"Why?" It was a whisper so small I almost didn't hear her, almost being the operative word "how could dad allow them to do that?"
"My little princess, your father did his best to protect us, helping us escape was the only way.
Flashback
" Sophy, my love we have to go"I opened my eyes and awake I could hear the rustle of soldiers headed to my Chambers.
"What's happening?" I asked as I wiped the tear that had escaped my Percy's left eye."did you speak to father?"
"My love we have to leave, my father thirst for our child's blood and I cannot let that happen" he wiped the traitor tears that had escaped my eyes.he then moved on to cup my very showing eighth-month belly..he kissed it then he cupped my face in his hands as he slowly and gently pressed his lips to mine, then he moved to press his forehead to mine"the guards are almost here, we're leaving through the secret tunnels "he moved from the bed, I pouted at the sudden loss of contact with his almost pale skin only I could hold intimately.
Percy had gone to reason with his father while I slumber, he'd wanted to plead for our child's life his father wanted to devour. How he must be feeling of this betrayal by his own father.
" Where shall we go?"I didn't want to stress him more but in my condition, I was due very soon.
"An allied who doesn't approve of my father's new ways has offered us sanctuary in his kingdom, FLORILIT KINGDOM"
Florilit..by land that is a month's travel, I won't make it...
"Sophy calm down" I hadn't realized I was shaking until Percy took me in his embrace whispering sweet words to calm me. I don't know when it started but for the past few months I've been experiencing anxiety attacks out of the blue
But Percy always manages to calm me, just as I am now.
Percy had managed to seal the secret door just as the soldiers broke into the Chambers. We've been walking through this dark maze for a few minutes but my feet already hurt.
" how much longer?"
Percy was trying his best to keep calm for my sake but I know my giant frame only slows us down.
"I'm sorry Percy but if we go any faster I'll end up in labor."
he turned around the fire torch in his left hand, he cupped my face with his right hand and kissed me passionately, hungrily and yet gentle, I felt my toes cull on their own, my body tingling at the touch and then the baby kicked. I quickly raised my hand to my belly caressing the spot the baby had kicked.
"did you feel that?" he nodded to me
