Mahina Pov
OMG.....It looks so pretty, thank the gods I decided to skip that so-called party.... waits.... what is that.... oh for the love of the gods how couldn't I have noticed it.
"Who are you?" I questioned after suddenly realizing that I had been watched for a long. "How long do You intend to keep quiet for must you wait for me to sever your head for your ignorance?" I questioned and turned to the Intruder who dared to waste my precious time and disturb my peace, I turned around to see my intruder before killing him.
"Forgive my Insolence, Princess. But I am genuinely sorry if I disturbed you, I didn't realise-"
"I believe I asked for your Identity and not this rubbish you spout from your mouth calling them words." I pointed a dagger at him, only for me to meet with a big shock. "Princess, weren't you told that pointing a harmful object to an Emperor is an act of war? And if you must honestly know my Identity, I am Emperor Septhis of the Ionia Empire, and now Princess would you stop trying to provoke War between two Empires princess."
What did he just say Emperor....however.....he does carry an aura of one "Forgive my ignorance, your Majesty, I was simply annoyed at being interrupted. I hope you accept my apologies and I wish to take my leave now" I said and prepare to leave only for something which I never expected to happen.
3rd person POV
Septhis touched her to prevent her from leaving, however, they both ended up getting the shock of their lives. As he touched her they both felt something that only existed in stories, something only written as a myth...The mate bond...Suddenly Miha jotted her hands away and looked at him only to see the same reaction written on his face. They both didn't understand what just happened however they both knew one thing which was the MATE BOND. Simontanuesly they looked at their hands where it had happened and looked at each other's faces. Although Mahina couldn't see, she perfectly understood what had just happened. When they both looked at each other, Septhis knew although they had been together for a while he hadn't indeed looked at her. She looked so fragile that she could break, her beauty was out of this world with Pitch black hair, which looked so soft that a little pull will cut it, her hair shone even more under the gaze of the moon.
Her eyes.....wait her eyes why do they look so familiar yet distant, what was it about her that he couldn't understand.....Asher said she was.....blind. Feeling herself being sized up by Septhis she quickly broke the trance.
"I'm sorry for touching you without your consent princess, it was rude of me and I hope you accept my apologizes" Septhis bowed to her in hope of her accepting his apologies.
"I'm also at fault your Majesty I couldn't differentiate between an intruder and an.....Emperor, I hope you also accept my apologies, your Majesty. I have to go my family will be worried about me, I take my leave and do hope you enjoy the party." Mahina bowed and left Septhis there all by himself as though nothing ever happened between them.
"Interesting, I do plan on enjoying this party after getting my goal" Septhis smirked at the silhouette of the young Lady who made her way to her coming-of-age ball. "Investigate everything about her, EVERY.SINGLE.THING." he said making them shiver in fear. "Yes, your Majesty." They all replied in unison and left not wanting to receive his wrath. Anyone who saw him right now would be scared to their bones and wouldn't believe he was the same one who bowed to the young Lady.
At the ball
Mahina POV
"Mahi where have you been?" Lucas feels anxious I guess it's because he could find me. 'Should I tell him what happened?' I contemplated. "Mahi, Mahi, Mahina, are you okay?" Brother asked, feeling at how he distorted his emotions felt from locating me I guess I shouldn't bother him with something as trivial as this.
"I'm an okay brother." I said trying to calm his distorted emotions. "Are you sure Mahi? I could tell Mama and Papa so that we will cancel the party and arrange it another time If you're okay with that?" he said rapidly.
"Brother I think you're the one who needs to calm down you are speaking too fast and look at, me do I look sick? No, so brother let's enjoy the party or don't you wanna be my dance partner, anyone?" I pouted, this is sure to get his mind off the topic if not I don't know how long I can continue lying to him.
"Mahi, if you say so, but please if you do feel tired or sick do call me, Mama, Papa or any of the maids Okay?" he said, I could feel him looking at me very anxiously.
"Yes, brother if I do feel tired or sick I will immediately do any of what you just said. Okay, so go enjoy yourself." I told him and jokingly pushed him towards the party.
"Okay, little tiger." We both laughed before he left. *Sigh* Finally It's almost time for the dance I wonder why I can't feel his presence or aura.
"Looking for someone, kitten" How did he get here? I couldn't feel his presence or aura. "I asked a question little kitten?" He asked me again. "No, your Majesty and I hope you enjoy the ball, it's time for the revelation so I have to go" I bowed and left.
*Oh gods what games are you playing with me right now* "Attention everyone, I heard my Father, Emperor Ethan clicking the glass gaining everyone's attention.
"And now it is time for the Revelation of the Princess, My lovely daughter Mahina" I felt everyone give way for me if they all thought I was gonna fall all because I am blind then they should get it in their brain that I'm Princess Mahina, daughter of Emperor Ethan and Empress Valerie, sister to Crown prince Lucas and only Princess of the Niht Empire. Promised of the gods and if they thought being blind meant I couldn't see then they were completely wrong and I am more than ready to show them how wrong they are.
I made my way towards my Family. "Are you ready tiger?" Brother asked. "I was born ready." I said proudly. The messenger came towards us and brought the spirit. "Princess Mahina daughter of Emperor Ethan and empress Valerie, promised of the gods are you ready to take this step into the realm." The messenger asked me. "Yes!" I said confidently. "Step forward and accept your fate." I did as asked and touched the spirit.
I felt myself being enveloped by a white glow.....White...I can see, I can finally see I looked all around me but this place was different to the palace. However, why did it feel so familiar, it feels like.....Home. "You're finally here Princess." A voice pulled my attention, I saw the most beautiful people ever "Mama, papa" I ran towards them, tears flowing from my eyes like a waterfall. "Mama, papa I missed you, you both abandoned me in the Human realm" I cried like the child I am. "We're sorry Princess but we had to do that." Mama said while crying and papa patted my head. "Princess, as much as we want t spend time with you we have to send to back to the human realm, remember child, remember him. remember your promise. Remember and Remember that if you both were ever to separate the entire realm will be thrown into Chaos." Papa said making me anxious and dizzy. "Princess, we permit your marriage to Septhis." Mama said making me burn with anger. "Marriage, Permission, Septhis, the first thing I hear after my return is Marriage...I'm not marrying him, after everything he put me through....let the world be thrown into Chaos for all I care but NEVER.NEVER am I going to MARRY Septhis." I screamed at them, but where was this anger coming from...what are they saying...what are these tears for..mama, papa...don't leave me. "Forgive us baby but this is what we can do for you...Remember about your promise princess." Promise... what are they talking about...
*When I opened my eyes, I was back home* The princess is engaged to Emperor Septhis" I turned around to the voice "the moon, sun, star, Luck, Love, Mountain, Earth, Nature, Light and Darkness bless their marriage and hope for a better world for the Human realm with their Marriage." The god in the revelation said.
"Marriage." I whispered in a low voice but everyone heard me nonetheless " I wasn't promised marriage" I said in a whisper due to the shock "I WASN'T PROMISED MARRIAGE, THE HUMAN REALM COULD BURN FOR ALL I CARE BUT I MAHINA WOULD NOT GET MARRIED AGAINST MY WILL." I screamed at the god making everyone look at me in shock.
"HEAR ME AND HEAR ME WELL I WILL NOT GET MARRIED TO SOMEONE WHO RUINED MY LIFE, I WILL NOT GET MARRIED TO SOMEONE WHO IS THE CAUSE OF MY PAIN SO TELL THE GODS THAT IF THEY DO NOT WANT TO FACE MY WRATH THEY SHOULD BREAK THE MARRIAGE AND PASS MY MESSAGE TO THE MOON GODDESS TO BREAK THE DAMM MATE BOND OR ELSE SHE WILL WATCH HER PRECIOUS MOON BURN TO ASHES SHE WOULD WATCH AS THE HUMAN REALM IS DESTROYED BY MY RAGE SHE WILL AS HER PRECIOUS SUPERNATURALS GO EXTINCT TELL THE GODS NOT TO TEST MY PATIENCE ELSE THEY ALL WILL BE BURNT BY MY WRATH." I screamed as everyone looked at me as though I'd grown five heads and been possessed by a demon...however...I don't know what I'm saying I don't know where this anger is from.
"Tell the gods I said that if they ever were to forget their promise they could as well lose their heads, now pass my message youngling." I said to the scared god.
"Yes, your highness" He greeted me and left I turned around...Oh is this fear I sense well they have more incoming if the gods don't keep their word.
