Alexander’s Pov
I try so hard to hold my laughter in – thankfully I do. I watch my little precious girl crying her eyes out as she buries her pet. Honestly speaking…I do feel my heart ache watching her hurt this much but I know it is something I have to do in order to make her mine. Once she is mine , nothing will ever harm her again.
The laughter I feel erupting at my throat is because of her little boy toy that sits next to her. He is trying so hard to find me , but he does not realize I am closer than he thinks. I sit crouched up in a bush , not to far from them. If he opens his eyes just a bit , he has clear view of me – however , he fails to do so as he is comforting my girl. I feel my resentment for him grow as I recall the way he carried her to the fountain – his hands holding her , having her against his hip as if she was his baby girl.

Before dawn was upon us , I lay awake in bed mentally preparing myself for what is to come today. Sadly , no matter how much I prepared myself – or attempted to prepare myself – I had no clue what would happen today. I had no idea who would lose their lives , who would betray us , who will fight by our sides and who will stand victorious. All that I could do , is do my best to keep Alexander from getting what he wants. I will lay my life down to protect the princess and the people that are of this land – I would fight till my last breath to see King Alexander fall to his doom.

___________________________________________________________________________ Rosemary’s Pov Every one is silent – they all look to me. I cower away , shrinking myself so that I may not feel their heated eyes on me. Every one wants me to give an answer of their choosing – how am I to please every one while pleasing my self as well? I look at each of their faces – each one has a different expression , each one has me begging me to give an answer that pleases them. Alexander smirks my way , his eyes are fixated on my face – daring me not to look away. I fear to turn away from his piercing eyes – his eyes making sure that I know what he will do if I make the wrong decision. I visibly gulp in fear as I imagine my loved ones being killed in front of my eyes. He looks pleased by the way I gulp in fear as he smiles and bites on his lower lip. I finally pull my eyes from Alexander’s direction and I look to a furious Andy

___________________________________________________________________________ Rosemary’s Pov I internally smile a sneaky one – knowing full well that he has no choice but to do what I ask of him. “Andrew is to come with me…” I blurt out. I lower my head , to afraid to see the look on both Andrew’s and Alexander’s face. Though I know Andrew cares deeply for me , right now I feel like he is too upset and angry with me to come with me. I realized that I will be going to a foreign land after I am too be wed to King Alexander – I would have to leave as I would be Queen ruling at his side. How could I go with out any one that I am close to – obviously I could not take my father for he has a kingdom to run. Usually the mother’s of the brides family accomplish the bride in to the foreign land but then returns home after a few weeks , and from then on wards the mother leaves her land every few three months to see if her daughter

___________________________________________________________________________ Andrew’s Pov It is now dusk – King Alexander’s carriage and his soldiers await for the princess and I to make our appearance at the front of the castle. I stand at the stair case patiently awaiting for the princess to make her descend from her room. I am lost in thought until I see the King enter the hallway and make his way to me. I examine him and my heart breaks as I see the sadness and loss that is evident in his eyes. When he nears me I bow my head in respect and in pity – however , he sees it as a sign of respect rather than a sorry excuse to show sympathy. “Andrew…” the king calls my name – I thought he was going to go upstairs to see the princess but he stops in front of me with destress in his eyes. I lift my head from it’s small bow and I make eye contact with the king – awaiting for him to tell me what it is he wants to tell me.

___________________________________________________________________________ Rosemary’s Pov I hear the guards of my castle , sadly blow me a farewell with their trumpets. I peek my head out through the curtains in this beautiful and comfortable carriage , to see a group of the people who took care of me wave me off. I saw the women excessively cry at my departure ; their tears wiped away by a white cloth that dries their sorrowful tears. The men look towards the carriage with a stone like look , but their eyes show much sorrow. I watch as my father wipes away a tear or two that fall from his eyes – however , once the carriage passes the castle gates , he turns around and walks away. With that little action , I knew I was in uncharted territory – I knew that I now had no one to lean on except Andrew. Andrew was not permitted to sit with me in the carriage , even though I really wished he could. Due to our difference in s

___________________________________________________________________________ Andrew’s POV We began our journey to our new home – well our temporary home. However , with the plan my father so aggressively shoved my way ; not even considering the risks that it may have. Did he even consider the princess’s safety? Sure , he wants to save her but how sure is he that Alexander will not hesitate to kill her if necessary. Did he consider the lives of our soldiers? Sure , they may have the upper hand due to ambushing Alexanders troop – but what my father fails to realize is that Alexander has always been one step a head of us this whole time. There has to be some sort of way , some sort of source he has that is telling him every thing he wants to know about what we doing or what are our plans. I feel the sun harshly shine down on us – our foreheads leak with dirty sweat. The leather that I sit on , burns me through my clothes.

___________________________________________________________________________ Andrew’s Pov My mind curious about the ways of the King – not my King , but King Alexander. I wonder if he has changed his mind about war or the princess – I wonder if in the space of a few hours , if he has changed his mind about ever being involved with us. How ever , I know deep down that can not be true. A man like him could never change , especially if he is good at who he is and what he does. I slowly guide my horse to the right , following his directions. Is he taking her back home? I wondered as he took the road that was leading us back to the castle – how ever , some thing about it all just did not make any sense. Why put us through all of this trouble? Why put the princess in such trauma , only to leave her back home? It just did not make any sense. “Take this map…When you reach

___________________________________________________________________________ Rosemary’s Pov The night rolls in as slowly as the night before – I pull the curtain aside staring at the the beautiful night sky. The stars beautifully twinkle , they look like little dew drops that lay on a flower petal in the mornings – how ever , they twinkle away. I see them twinkle like the night before , the night before that and the night before that. It has been three days and three nights since Andrew and I have left our home – our palace. It has been three long , exhausting day and three long . extremely hot and uncomfortable nights. How ever , I try not to complain much because I know that I have the easy while every one else is suffering outside. I look through my window and my eyes lands on a dying fire – the soldiers have burnt the fire to ensure that every one has had a cooked meal. I watch all the soldier’s loudly snoring as they are hu
