The King sat stagnant in his seat, he had seen his nephew's body. He could not believe it. He had to die in such a horrible manor, his head looked like a broken watermelon. It wasn't a very pleasing scene but he had to. He had to make sure it was really Elias. It was clear Prince Alexius wouldn't, he was too trusting, easily trusting... the King thought. This was really the end for his nephew this was really the life he chose to lead and this is how he chose to end it. Prince Alexius had told him that they would hold a small gathering where they will let his ashes go at the Mount Varasova. It was initially Elias, favorite place and Prince Alexius knew that. Elias enjoyed sitting on the hill watching everything from down below. He would seat there for hours at most, Elias enjoyed nature, he loved nature. Elias had warned the Prince to never ever go to his spot or rather his hill when they were kids. He would always make jokes such as 'You have the whole kingdom and you want to go arou
Queen Lucia was finally back home, in Greece. Everything was just moving smoothly over five months had passed since Elias passing. She sighed, breathing in when her dress was abruptly tightened too tight. She had tried it on just a week before. "Milady, you seemed to have gained a tad bit of weight." One of the Royal maids informed her, undoing the ties at the back. Lucia heaved a sigh seating down on the leather cushioned stool matching the interior design of her massive master bedroom that she now shared with the soon to be King Alexius Nikoloudis II. "I don't understand." She whined. Larrissa, Lukas wife then immediately smiled widely at her sister inlaw."We can always make an adjustment, the wedding is only two weeks away.." the second chambermaid said softly. Suddenly the third chambermaid giggled making the two other maids laugh including Larrissa who sat on the opposite side of the room holding her cup of tea."Did I miss the joke?" Queen Lucia frowned but the maids shyly
Prince Liberto Nikoloudis raced towards the dining hall, with so much excitement it was undeniable that someone seemed to be very happy. The twelve year old boy, yes boy, Queen Lucia had yet again given birth to a third boy. Making Princess Elisabet the one and only daddy's Princess. She absolutely prided herself in being the only girl amongst the three male siblings. Prince Liberto had sandy blonde hair and alluring grey eyes, which made him very different from the rest of his siblings. No one in his family had grey eyes but his grandpa Demetre had once told him that, his great grandfather the late King of Greece had grey eyes and he had certainly taken after him. Taking the family's gift of height, he was one handsome lad who would later break hearts. The name Liberto has came along because he was conceived during the time of Acamas and Greece reuniting. There was a lot of joy and happiness at the time amongst the citizens. In English Liberto was translated Liberty meaning... 'the
"Everybody has difficult years, but a lot of times the difficult years end up being the best years of your whole entire life, if you survive them." ~ Brittany Murphy.- Acamas known as the lost city, consisted of the most beautiful sceneries. It was after all a small part of Greece. Centuries ago, there was a dispute between two royal princes which made Acamas separate from Greece. Acamas was ruled by Prince Angelos Krestenitis while Greece stayed in the rule of King Jason Roussopoulos, half brother of Angelos Krestenitis. Centuries later they still had not been reunited.-Acamas had grown to be as strong as Greece in terms of civilization. When Prince Alexius Nikoloudis II was born the priest had said he was the angel that would reunite the Acamas with Greece. Prince Alexius was pure, not handsome but beautiful beyond beautiful. His sapphire blue eyes were more alluring. His pouty pink lips were beyond dainty. His long eye lashes that made his sapphire blue eyes flutter pleasantly.
There is no They, Only Us." ~ Graffito.-The river looked beautiful, the sound of the waterfall put her thoughts at ease. She always came here when she needed to think about her life, her Aunt, her cousin. Lucia striped of her dress, allowing herself to go for a swim. She was a pretty good swimmer. She dived in deep, when she got up to catch her breath, her blonde her was stuck to her skin and her nipples hard and pointy due to the water being a tad bit cold. Her forest green eyes flickered open as she took another breath of fresh air. She felt as if someone was watching her.Lucia felt uncomfortable but most of all she felt scared stiff. She didn't want to die in the middle of the forest near a riverbank.When she looked to her left she saw him... leaned against a tree looking at her. She quickly covered her breasts with her hands as a gasp escaped from her luscious lips. "My Prince, my apologies." She said her eyes searching for her dress and undergarments. She just needed to get d
"Love . . . [is] a lack of personal selfishness." ~ Theodore M. Burton.-Lucia rushed from her house quickly closing the wooden door. She was excited, beyond hyperactive. After what had happened two days ago, she couldn't wait to be with Alexius. She couldn't wait for him to shower her with kisses, she couldn't wait to see his glowing skin, pressed against hers. Even when her aunt yelled at her, Lucia simply smiled. Is this how it felt to be inlove? she did not want to jump into conclusions just yet. She craved Alexius so bad, he always made her feel good... she felt so good, she even forget she was laid on the hard ground full of green grass or that she was pressed against the tree as he devoured her lips. Alexius had one of his chaperones set a picnic right next to the riverbanks, it was the most romantic thing anyone had ever done for Lucia. It was the nicest thing anyone had ever done for her too, she was smitten.They did not only have sex, they talked. The Prince would tell Luc
"Our first and last love is self-love." ~ Christian Nestell.-"Are you in your right mind, Lucia ?" Khris bawled at Lucia who was startled."What do you mean ?" She acted oblivious."I saw you.." His voice became as low as a whisper. "With the Prince at the river." They were both silent, Lucia didn't know what to say except. "Don't tell anyone." Lucia abjured."This isn't right." Khris said pacing back and fourth around the small cramped kitchen. Aunt Gloria and Kyra had gone out to their church duties with the society women. They most probably discussed issues on how to teach teenage girls on how to be young women who could be presentable to the royals and their husbands. They had tea and gossiped about one another. It was not Lucia's scene even if it was her aunt would not allow her to join them. Her Aunt was part of the middle class society/bourgeois. She got invited to many social events especially the ones at the palace. She hoped Kyra and the Prince would one day be united toge
"You can't force anyone to love you or lend you money." ~ Jewish Proverb.-It was confirmed, Lucia was pregnant with the Prince's heir. Khris had taken her to his aunt a well experienced midwife, they told her all the symptoms she had been having.She then asked her to strip off her clothing and lay down so she could examine her. She laid her hands on either side of Lucia's belly, her sides were slowly curving into a little bumb. She was two months pregnant. A part of her felt happy, a part for her felt sad. A part of her couldn't wait to tell Alexius, a part of her was petrified to see his reaction. When they returned home, Khris told her it would be all okay, he would never abandon her. she had decided she would go to the royal palace and tell Alexius the news. She didn't expect him to marry her but that's what they would expect him to do. She just wanted to tell him that she was expecting, then she would leave-leave to God knows that was an idle plan.Bidding goodbye to her neigh
