Prince Kealen’s pov

I stormed through the palace corridors, my boots striking the marble floor with enough force to crack the stone. Or at least, that's what it felt like. The guards I passed quickly averted their eyes, stepping aside to press themselves against the walls which was smart of them as I was in no mood for pleasantries.

“You will go to the vampire lands as my representative."

My father's words echoed in my mind, each word feelings like a barbed arrow sinking deeper into my chest.

    Amelia's PovMia was still talking, her words tumbling over each other in her excitement."I've read so many books about dragons. There's one in the palace library that's supposed to be a complete account of dragon history, but it's written in some ancient language that no one can translate. I've been trying to learn it for years, but it's really hard. Do you think Ruby's history is in that book? Do you think she knows her history? Do dragons have culture? Do they have families? Do they—""Mia," Kealen interrupted gently. "You need to breathe."

  • THE REJECTED PRINCE’S OWL   You’re really getting banished.

    Amelia's POVThe carriage swayed gently as it rolled along the uneven road, the rhythmic clatter of hooves and wheels creating a hypnotic melody. I watched from my cage by Kealen's side as the palace grew smaller and smaller in the distance, until it was nothing more than a speck from afar.It felt strange, leaving behind the only place I had known since arriving in this world. Strange and a little terrifying.The trees moved in the opposite direction, a blur of green and brown as we passed through the forest. Birds chirped overhead, and somewhere in the distance, I could hear the sound of running water.Ruby was asleep by my side, her tiny body warm against my feathers. She had barely stirred since we left, mostly eating and sleeping was her routine plus being exhausted from everything that had happened. I couldn't blame her. I was exhausted too."You know," I said through our telepathic link, "for someone who's supposed to be banished, you seem awfully relaxed."Kealen was leaning

  • THE REJECTED PRINCE’S OWL   His highness is mad

    [Pov: Amelia]"She's old enough to know what she's doing.""She's still a child!"Mia, oblivious to my internal protests, was studying me with a look of pure wonder."Your feathers," she murmured. "They look so soft. Can I touch you?"I looked at Kealen again."I think I’ll like her," I said. "She keeps asking permission. How is a thirteen-year-old more respectful than most adults?""Because she was raised right," Kealen replied. "And yes, you may touch her. Gently."I huffed."Fine. But if she pulls a feather, I'm pecking her."Mia reached into the cage slowly, her fingers hovering just above my feathers."Is it okay if I...?"I tilted my head, meeting her grey eyes.The girl is asking permission again. I might have to keep her."Go ahead," I hooted softly.Mia's fingers touched my feathers.Her touch was impossibly gentle, like she was handling something precious and fragile. She stroked my plumage with the lightest pressure, her face alight with joy."Oh," she breathed. "You're so

  • THE REJECTED PRINCE’S OWL   She’s a child

    [Pov: Amelia]I watched from my cage as servants came and went, their arms laden with boxes and bundles. The room that had once been so grand and imposing was slowly being stripped bare.Ruby slept through most of it, her tiny body curled against my side. I envied her ability to find peace in the middle of all this madness. Every time a servant passed too close to the cage, I tensed, my feathers ruffling with anxiety."Easy," I told myself. "They're just doing their jobs. They're not going to hurt you." I can’t also always trust the system to save meBut the cage felt smaller with each passing hour.Eventually, the last crate was carried out and the servants filed out, leaving behind an almost empty room and a loud silence.I was alone.Well, alone except for Ruby, who was still snoring softly against my side.I stared at the room, my mind racing with questions I couldn't answer. Where were we going? What would the vampire clans be like? I can’t remember any vampire stuff happening in

  • THE REJECTED PRINCE’S OWL   Chapter 20: Banished

    Amelia's POVI snuggled closer to the small familiar warmth pressed against my side, rising and falling with each tiny breath. Even in my half-asleep state, I recognized the gentle rhythm of Ruby’s breathing.I blink my eyes dazedly but stood up abruptly, noticing that I was surrounded by golden bars."A CAGE?!" I shrieked, my eyes flying open. "I'M IN A CAGE!"The cage was enormous compared to my tiny body as it was more like a miniature room than a cage. There were little wooden perches, a small bowl of water, another bowl filled with what appeared to be fresh berries and seeds, and even a tiny section that had been arranged like a nest.Someone had gone completely overboard but still, a cage is a cage— a prison and I ain’t no prisoner to be in here.I scrambled upright, my wings flapping frantically, nearly launching Ruby off the bed.Ruby let out a disgruntled chirp, blinking sleepily at me with those enormous golden eyes. She looked thoroughly unimpressed with my sudden panic att

  • THE REJECTED PRINCE’S OWL   Chapter 19: loving you is a curse

    Prince Kealen's pov!“Eliza? Is that really you?”They broke apart immediately, both scrambling for cover. Eliza's face was flushed, her hair disheveled and her eyes wide with shock. Theron looked furious, his body tensing as he reached for a robe."Kaelen!" he snarled. "What the hell do you think you're doing?"I couldn't speak. I couldn't breathe. All I could do was stare at Eliza, she really had been with him. She really rejected me for him."Kaelen," Eliza said, her voice trembling. "What are you doing here?""What am I doing here?" I finally managed, my voice barely above a whisper. "Is that really what you should be asking me, Eliza? So this is it? You were for real when you said you hated me… gosh I can’t believe my eyes. You must have hated me so much, is that not why you are celebrating with my dear brother after trying to curse me? You must feel happy to think of me dying soon uh?”Theron laughed, "stop trying to be funny, little brother? Why would I need to add more curses
