Sitting around Bryden's desk, my mom began the story of the Prophecy.“Over five hundred years ago there was a great prophet known to all three worlds. One night as he slept he had a strong vision of a war between the worlds.The cause of the war started by the greed of an evil dark king, the prophet saw darkness grow inside this king, and the darkness began poisoning the world he ruled. It began to grow dark with evil and poison across the world.The evil king’s strong desire to rule all three worlds and kill the royal families darkened his heart. Sadly, your father was the first.” My mom said sadly looking at me then continued, “The Prophet saw a child being born two years after the evil king began his rule, it was a special boy from one of the Royals.”I looked over at Galen as he held my hand and he glanced at me as my mom continued.“The evil king was wreaking havoc among his people during the first few years of his reign. Close to three years after the boy was born the Prophet s
I finally slept peacefully that night and dreamed of a grand wedding. I was now looking forward to it, as I cannot imagine ever being apart from Galen. He is my entire being, my life, my very existence, and I am his. I was lying in bed thinking of everything and smiled. The very thought of seeing Galen brought tingles through my body. I stretched and sat up when something caught my eye. Sitting on the bedside table was a present. I picked it up and saw the card which read.On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me!Our hearts are entwined forever, GalenI smiled as I opened the present and saw a silver necklace. It was of two hearts with diamonds entwined as one. “Well, it is not a partridge in a pear tree,” I said to myself giggling with joy. I undid the clasp and put the necklace on; then I got up changed and brushed my hair then ran out to find Galen. Seeing him in the living room standing and chatting with my mom, I ran straight into his arms and gave him a big kiss.
I woke after another dream of Galen and me and laid there wondering if he had the same dream. It was after the ceremony, and we were crowned King and Queen of Kaihu. After the festivities and celebrations of our union ceremony, we were shown to this huge beautiful room and several guards standing outside for our protection. The room was white with gold trim and a beautiful white marble fireplace with a golden mantle already lit and cozy looking. There was food and drink for us on a table and a large bed with gold covering. As I looked around I heard Galen's voice, “This is the Ceremonial room. As we are the chosen ones, we must consummate this marriage for our union to be complete, and the power of light to ignite.” He said coming up to me and turning me around and gently began kissing me. “I love you, my sweetness.” “I love you so much,” I whispered as he deepened the kiss, then lifted me and carried me to the bed gently placing me down and began kissing me again and more passionate
After such a magical night, I wish I could say the dream that night was such, but it wasn't. I woke more shaken about what I dreamed. In this dream, it was the day after the wedding night. After Galen and I ate our breakfast and showered then dressed in the clothes that were left for us to wear, a guard came banging on the door. Galen opened the door to the guard. “You're Majesties we need to take you into hiding now!”Galen asked the guard, “Why? What is happening?” “War is breaking out all over, and people are storming the palace. It is the evil ruler. He is angry and sent a vast number of soldiers to come and kill you both.” At that moment, we heard what sounded like explosions and laser fire.Outside our room were many guards to escort us away to safety.Galen took my hand, and we left with the guards. Galen, I’m sure could feel my handshaking and whispered, “It will be alright, I am with you.” I held onto his hand tighter as we were guided towards outside to the courtyard when a
The next morning, I was surprised not to have had a dream. I wondered if Galen had one or not. I stretched my arms and yawned to wake up. Then I laid back down and began to think of last night and our date. I couldn’t believe what a great time I had. We drove through the country roads in the moonlight and found a quiet place to pull over and park. There was a lake in front of us, and the moon's light reflecting off the water was like a dream.I was so admiring the sight when Galen turned to me taking my hands in his, and before he spoke he was no longer as Porter but my Galen as he said. “I felt when I gave you that ring…” He touched the ring on my left hand and continued, “I had not properly asked you, and it was as Porter and not as myself. So, Rayana Lynnae Karver I love you forever and always will, will you do me the great honor of marrying me and being in my life forever?”I stared at him and all the love I felt for this wonderful man came flooding through me as I said, “Yes, wit
I woke the next day and lay there in bed thinking about what almost happened. I hugged my arms around myself and kept saying to myself. “One month, one month.” Taking a deep breath, I looked over and again there was my morning gift. I picked it up and read the card first.On the Fifth day of Christmas, my true love Gave to Me!A Heart filled with hugs from me to you, GalenI opened the gift and saw a beautiful dark red, warm winter scarf with little silver hearts all over it. Now I get the hugs part; it made me smile. He is just so considerate. I hugged the scarf and rubbed my face on it; it was soft. I love my gifts. Then it dawned on me, what do I do for him for Christmas? What is it he desires, besides me? I need to find out and ask around for suggestions. I want something special for this particular man. Now I have a project of my own to do. I got up and showered and changed into jeans and a red top and put on my gifts and draped my scarf loosely around my neck. I walked out think
The following day, I felt as if I was glowing. The date had been chosen, and the place where, is picked out, now we can plan our ceremony. The council was quite upset about being overridden, but the two Queens and King spoke, and their voice is the law. Galen and I knew we could hold off until that special night. It will be difficult, but at least it is no longer a month away. And as long as we keep this a secret there can be no threat to come. I discussed it with Galen, and he said I could invite one outsider to witness and that is to be Sara. His parents, the Westons my mother, Sara, and the Minister of Cainya will be the only ones to witness the ceremony and Coronation of our crowing as King and Queen of Kaihu. Oh, and there will be a camera all set up to record it all to play later for the worlds.I turned and saw my gift on the nightstand… Just like clockwork. I smiled and picked it up and read the card.On the Sixth Day of Christmas, My True Love gave to Me!Our hearts and Minds
The next morning, I got up and showered and put on my new pull over sweater that Galen got me and put on a little dab of rose oil that came with it in the last gift and put on the jewelry and watch and walked out to greet everyone.I had placed the wedding ring of my dad’s in a safe place. Tomorrow evening is the ceremony, and I was feeling excited and sad. There are still the last-minute things that need to get done. Out in the main room My mom and Kieran were still busy creating decorations and Galen and Bryden were finishing with the arch. There seemed to have been a lot of pieces to put together. I walked into the kitchen and felt eyes on me as I came back with my cup of coffee. I looked over and saw Galen watching me smiling. I mouthed ‘Thank you,’ and he nodded. I settled over near Kieran and my mom and began helping them with the decorations.A half hour later a sound went off in the office and Bryden jumped up with Galen following and both rushed into the office. I never heard
