Alex Pov
When I was just 8 years old, I lost both of my parents. My father was a personal guard of the Dragon King Richard. But someone killed both of my parents. I don't know why and who killed them. But after they died, I became all alone. I had no one or nowhere to live. So King Richard adopted me. I was good at fighting from an early age . So King Richard told me to protect his son. Prince Chris had another guard beside me. Because I was too young to protect him. But we became good friends. Because we were the same age. I am glad to King Richard for give me a place to live. King died at a very young age. So, Prince Chris became the Dragon King when he was just 17. But he was very skilled. He was a little bit rude and scary, but at heart he was very kind. He always punished his servant so hard, but it was not his fault. He saw his father to did it.
Now both of us are 19. We found the secret place where fairies live. I went there with some of our men and captured them. We took them to our castle and gathered them in the castle's field. Lord Chris wanted to punish them hard. He ordered our men to cut the children's finger first. I was shocked at his words. Everyone screamed out to hear his order. They gathered all the fairy children. Our men were fixing their knife to cut the children's finger. I could see the children's fearful faces. Some of them were crying. I wanted to stop Lord Chris from doing such a thing. But I couldn't dare.
"Stop!" Suddenly, a sweet fearful voice came out. A girl dared to scream. Her purple eyes were shining bright. She had blonde hair and fair skin. She wore a maroon coat and a pair of black boots.
"You can't do this. They are innocent. Please leave them. Don't hurt them. They are little children." She begged fearfully. Lord Chris looked at her and came down the stairs.
"Who are you? How dare you? You dared to stop my guards?" He growled low at her.
"Please let them go." She begged made her head down, didn't dare to look at him.
"Let them go? Then let me punish you first." He said gripping her chin hard.
"Guards, take everyone to the jail. I will punish them later. I will punish her first." He said let my her go and she fall down on the ground. But I relived that he let the children go. The guards took them all to the jail.
"Follow me." He said. She stood up and followed him. I think he took her to Raya. Whatever I let them go. I went to my room to do my other works. After finishing my works I went to Lord Chris. He was sitting at his desk.
"What's wrong, My Lord?" He looked at me shockingly, looked like he didn't notice me.
"Oh Alex! No nothing. I wondered what he would have done today if father was here." His words made think of Lord Richard.
"I don't know. But how could you do that?" I dared to ask.
"What are you talking about?" He asked.
"How could you ordered your men to cut those children's finger?" He chuckled at my words.
"Do you really think I would do that?" He asked me made me confused.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"Alex, I like to scare people. It is my way to punish them. I ordered my men to cut those children's finger to scare the fairies. But in the end I would have stopped them If that girl doesn't stop me." hearing this I felt ashamed for thinking about him like this.
" I'm sorry. Really so sorry. " I said made him laugh.
" You are really silly you know? "He said.
Whatever he told me what he did to that girl. He gave her some duty. Today she couldn't finish her work at time. So I had to punish her by giving her the electric shock. I had no choice. Hope she will understand me. I know I am so rude. But it is my work.
The next morning, I went to Lord Chris's room to wake him up.
"Lord Chris, it's time for your breakfast." I said.
"Lord Chris!?" He asked surprisingly. I shocked at his words.
"Did something happened? You looked so weird today." I asked him shockingly.
"No, actually I'm feeling so tired. You can go. I will eat by myself." He said nervously. I placed the tray of food and left the room.
A few minutes later I went to Lord Chris again. But he didn't eat his meal yet.
"What is this, Lord Chris? You didn't eat your breakfast. Even you didn't change your clothes." I said to him.
"I...I don't want to eat this." He said nervously.
"Are you sick? Let me test your temperature." I moved close to him and put my hand on his forehead.
"No no I'm not." He said nervously and I moved. I thought that the meal was not so good. Maybe that's why, he doesn't want to eat this.
"So the meal is not that delicious. Don't worry, Lord Chris. I will punish that girl immediately." I said angrily.
"Which girl?" He asked, made me confused.
"Which girl!? What's wrong with you? I am talking about that stupid fairy girl." I said surprisingly. He seems to be confused.
"Where is the girl? Take me to her." He said made surprise. I couldn't understand anything.
"What!? What's wrong with you, Lord Chris? You have no time to meet her. You have to go for your work. You have a important meeting today." I said.
"Meeting!? Oh no what do I do now?" He said. His words kept confusing me.
"I can't understand. Are you sick today? You never behaved like this." I said.
"I think, I am a little bit sick. Let's cancel the meeting today." He said.
"If you are sick, then let me call the royal doctor. He will test you." I said and left the room for calling the doctor.
I went to the royal doctor and take him to Lord Chris. But when I entered his room, he wasn't here. A few minutes ago, he was here. Now where has he gone?
" Mr Martin, forgive me. Can you please wait here for a moment? I think Lord Chris went somewhere. I am going to find him." I said to the doctor.
"No problem. I can wait for My Lord." He said. I got scared so much. I tried to find him everywhere. At last when I went to the library, I found him there. He was with that blonde hair girl.
"Lord Chris, I was finding you everywhere. And you are here. Come with me. The royal doctor is waiting for you." I said
"Can you go please? I have very important meeting with her." He said, made me shocked. He never talked to me like this before. I left the room and went to his room.
"Mr Martin, sorry for being late. Lord Chris is coming. Can you please wait a little bit more?"
"OK no problem." We waited for him about half an hour. Then he came back to room.
"Lord Chris! You made me worry. Why are you acting like this. I called the doctor for you. Let him check." I said.
"Sorry Alex to made you worry about me. I am fine now. No need to show the doctor. You can go doctor." The doctor left the room without saying any word. Just bowed his head before leaving. I felt bad for the doctor because he wasted his time for Lord Chris. Whatever, at that time I didn't think too much about it. Because I worried about Lord Chris.
"What's wrong Alex?" He asked nervously. I was quite for a few seconds. I was wondering, why he said me sorry.
"My Lord, you didn't say sorry to me before." I said confusingly.
"Did I say sorry? Well I didn't notice. Just let it go. Where is my breakfast !?" He said. I told him to come to the dining room. Because that meal I placed in his room before, it became cold.
" But first you better change your clothes. You still didn't change your night dress. I am waiting for you outside." I said and left the room. I was waiting for him outside the room. A few minutes later he came out.
" What's wrong? " Seeing his weird face I asked.
" What it could be !?" He said nervously.
"No I don't know. But I think your face turned into red." I said with a smile.
"Shut up! Just take me to the dining room." His words shocked me again. He said me to take him to the dining room? But he never act like this before. He always walk before me to the dining room. I can't understand what is going on.
Today when I went to the blonde hair girl's room, she also act so weird. Something is going wrong. But what is it?
