Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Chapter 1

Lila's POV

             Running through the street, alone and scared. It was dark, I didn't know what to do. I just got proposed, to only to see minutes later I have been betrayed by my own blood. It's disgusting on how I actually fell for it. They were playing me all along. I felt used and manipulated. I am so disappointed in my self to feel so love sick. Thinking that someone would ever love.

Pfft, I wish.

Let me give u a brief history of my kingdom. You see I am the second of my family. The second to fourteen children to be exact. Yea huge family, I know. My elder sister, younger sister, Tiana, and I are triplets. We were blessed by my grandmother who is special type of parent. Story for another day. As I was saying, Tiana was born with the gift of Air. She can manipulate the wind, cause disasters if she wants to. Diana, the first born, can control fire.

While I can control Ice. Cool isn't it. Now before u ask, is it for everyone in my family? Well, no. It's for some people but the rest they have  supernatural instinct or they move fast or the are super strong. It's only the first four girls in my family that manipulate the four elements. Well the last element is earth but my second younger sister harnesses that power. Back to my story, so the competition has always been between I and Diana.

My parents compare the both of us mainly because I have the skills and the abilities to become Queen while Diana is the first born. These really affected my relationship with my sister, obviously, so it took me by surprise when she didn't come back home after dad finished training is. It happened when I was five and she was seven.

We spared with dad and we're tired. She was the most tired because of her power takes up a lot of energy, I will explain later. But as I was saying I was worried about her when she told me to go inside that she will come later. After that I didn't see her again.

          Five years passed and I was ten. My parents gave up on looking for her, but I didn't. Even though we weren't that close I still cared for her. I would go on secret missions to find and end on nothing. As young as I was I was smart and agile. My father, giving up on my long lost sister, announced that I would be the next Queen to our kingdom. I, on the other hand, was excited because I was to become Queen.

When it was announced my people were really happy, not that I would be queen, OH NO, they were happy so that they wouldn't have a mannerless queen to rule their kingdom. My people aren't fond of me because of my title. They call me the Snowdrop. The Everlasting and most powerful being on earth. One day, Diana walked up the palace on announced shocking the hell out of all of us.

"Hey, dad, mum" she said. "Hope all is well."

"What are u doing here." My father's loud voice booming through the throne room. "I am here to take what is mine."

"What's yours, how ever do u mean." I said too overwhelmed to think at the moment. Diana's head snapped to me " Ah, dear sister hope u have said your final goodbyes because this your last day sitting on this throne." It was like the wind was knocked out of my lungs.

She wanted to take the throne, and she is going to kill me for it. "You will never lay a hand on her." Mother said. Diana didn't say anything for about two minutes until I understood what was happening. " Guards formation one NOW!" Shouting so they can hear my seriousness. "Honey what's wrong." Father asked. With a blank expression I replied "We are under attack."

That's when I saw the true colors of my sister. From that day forward I hated my sister. She has been jealous of me since I was born. She wasn't ashamed or remorse. She said with pure pride in her voice. Now, three years passed after that incident, and my mum said I should start dating. At first I found it weird but later saw reason. So one day as I was coming back form the shopping mall.

I saw the most handsome man I ever seen. Well technically I have seen many but this boy was not understated. Long story short, we started dating. For two years and six months, we were happy and satisfied, or so I thought.

One our 31 month anniversary he finally proposed. It was a cool night, I was happy and so in love that I didn't see the loop holes in our bond. We were comfortably conversing, when he went on one knee and proposed to me. I cried happy tears that night. When I went home gushing over the ring he gave me. I saw my kingdom in chaos.

People were running everywhere, fire falling from the sky, houses crumbling to the ground. I got into battled mode and used my magic to transform my dress to my battle armour. As I was running I was fighting any obstacle that came my way. I got to the castle and went to the roof.

When I got there my heart broke into a million pieces. My sister and soon to be husband was there making out on the roof top. I felt my resolve break at the sight of those two. From, heart ache to anger. I was fuming and shouted, "What the heck Andrew u are engaged to me."

Then he stopped and scoffed, " Oh you are just finding out. Lila u are too love sick to see what is going around. I never loved u, it was all a fake demise to get your sister what she wanted. The ring,  confessions, tenderness are all fake. This was for your sister and only your sister."

As he said that, I didn't know when I was backing away from them. Then I knew how to stop this war. I used a spell, to stop the war. I also used to restore everything back in place. When I was done I didn't look at them I just turned back and ran. And that's when my story begins Â
