Was I craving to be loved by him? But I thought he loves me and that's why he chose me at the ball. My mind kept echoing what Lincoln had told me. My head seems scattered and disorganized with thoughts. I couldn't think straight. Now I was badly missing my mom. I yelled out in frustration and immediately Lucas and Gideon entered to check on me.
"What happened Your Highness" Lucas asked as he saw a tear dropping out at the corner of my eye.
"I'm fine. I just need someone to talk to right now"I said.
"I'm right here" Lucas offered himself while he signed to Gideon to give us some privacy.
"We are alone now" Lucas said.
"Can I ask you questions?" I asked with pleading eyes.
"Yes Your Highness" He nodded
"Since when have you been a guard to His Highness?"
"12"
My eyes widened but I remained calm. So I wasn't the only one suffering at that young age.
"Is His Highness wicked?" She blurted out that question. For some reason, I wanted to find out reasons I can used to hate him so much.
Lucas looked hesitant but with the look in my eyes.....
"Yes. Kind off tho. I don't look at him as being wicked but he is very strict. I mean very strict" Lucas emphasized.
I sighed and my eyes kept rolling like a rollercoaster, looking for some hectic questions to ask.
"Does His Highness have mistresses? Like how many of them?" I found myself asking this question. What was my business anyway?
"He has many of them. He needs to satisfy his sexual desire" Lucas smirked
"Do you think he might get married to another wife?" I sounded selfish. I didn't want him to touch me yet I'm asking stupid questions.
"I think so, because he said he loves women and because the way the King treated his wives, he promised that he wouldn't treat his own Wives be treated like that." Lucas explained calculating my next expression. I smiled in pain and anxiety. So, he was truly going to get married to another wife. Trying to relieve my agony someone barged into my room, slamming the door very hard.
Lucas looked surprised but I told him to wait outside. He looked hesitant but I nodded to him that everything would be alright. The days of me being bullied are over. I wouldn't let anyone treat me like a piece of trash anymore. NO ONE!!
"You weakling, how dare you talk to our mothers like that" Amber yelled.
"And who are you calling a weakling?" I asked with a playful tone.
"Who else am I talking to other than you?" Amber hissed.
"Anyways, I have nothing to say to both of you. Since your mothers doesn't have courtesy, I never expected both of you to any less" I scoffed.
Amber and Stella mouths were wide opened in shock. They couldn't believe their ears.
"Flies would enter your mouths if you don't close it. I want to rest now, pls leave my room" I called Lucas to take them out.

Sunset was slowly rising and it was time for vampires to go bed. I can move freely be it day or night but staying in Vampire kingdom, I had to abide. What other creatures exists other than Vampires? I began wondering, I knew that humans would fear our existence.
Would it be me? I'm I human? I knew that Amber thought that I was human, that's why she called me a weakling.
"Maybe, I'm a human" I pondered.
My eyes kept on blinking towards the ceiling continuously.
I felt Kai's presence and he appeared in front of me. He teleported.
"What's up wifey?" Kai voiced echoed in my hear. I closed my eyes to ignore him.
"Hey....I want to sleep. I'm sleepy. I haven't slept for days" Kai said in a burly voice.
"I'm not stopping you from sleeping." I said curtly. He stared at me for a while as if he was calculating something in his brain. He didn't say any word, he just crawled on the bed while pulling of his shoes and he slept off.
I stared at his innocent face. He had charming face and mind but he wasn't innocent. I couldn't just think straight. What this feeling? Why do I care for him? We just got married!!!!
Hours past by and the day was already dusky. I've been in the bed for the past ten hours, day dreaming, thinking, drinking water and looking at Kai who was peacefully sleeping beside me.
Kai woke up.
He got from bed and then left the room as if someone called him but I didn't hear anybody's voice. Did he talk to some telepathy? I thought.
"Pack your things and let's leave since the sun has died down" Kai came inside with a frown on his face. I got confused at the moment and I continue blinking while digesting what he just said.
"Can't you hear me? Or should I help you pack your things" He said in a hoarse voice.
"I...I...w.. Will pack my..my things" I stammered.
"Good" He said in a cold voice and left the room
Why are we living? What's happening?
I packed fee things and I went outside my chamber. It was night and I knew I would fall asleep anytime soon. What's all this?
I saw Leon preparing the carriage and I saw Kai approaching some other guards.
"I will help you with this" Leon collected my thinking and he kept it in the carriage.
"Pls go in Milady" Leon gestured and I entered the carriage. Not long, Kai entered with a serious face. The carriage started moving fast. I wasn't used with horses moving this fast. I praised the person controlling the horse at the front.
"Why are we living so fast? Are we going back to Alvatonia?" I asked him regardless how serious he was.
"Do you like it here? We are not going back to Alvatonia" He said.
"Then why are we living?" I asked angrily. I wanted an answer.
"Just keep it shut young lady. You don't have to question me" His time was harsh. This was the first time he had raised his voice on me. My heart was slowly breaking in to pieces and I could feel my heart dying. Why was he like this? Earlier on, he talked normal and now he was like this. I'm really tired now. I wanted to leave this marriage and go back to my mom.
Tears flowed down my eyes and I noticed Kai staring at me. He disappeared and I was left alone in the carriage. I laid down and I curved myself into a small figure. I thought I could like him as my husband even if not love.
