Chapter 51: The Key
It has been a day-long trip. Anna, Leigh, Kilyn and I have been travelling through these woods at a steady pace. Now, here we are at the old lady, Aphy's little hut. "That's strange. No one but us lives here. Nobody has since the capitol of Northmere's been built." Kilyn explains as we all start to slow down. The sun is about to set and I told them we could sleep here.
I'm not sure what happened to Aphy. Leigh and I tried to free all the women who were being trafficked by King Leonardo. Yet when we got there they'd already been taken back. Aphy wasn't even in the tent when I was taken in. I simply assumed she wouldn't mind if we stayed here for the night. Heck, maybe she's even back here.
I crinkle my brows at Kilyn's words. "What do you mean? Clearly, someone does." I point

The Forgotten King Chapter 52: Yearning
I didn't know why the dream affected me so. It makes me happy, seeing such an amazing sight. Yet it brings me longing, a longing for him. To see him, to feel him just to be near him. Anything for that, like my soul yearns for him. Is that right? Wanting for another man when I'm married. They do look the same, almost exactly the same. More than Alexander ever did. Also, why do I keep seeing the dream from Star's point of view? Shouldn't I be seeing it from my own view? That doesn't make much sense, I should be seeing it from the outside body. Or perhaps a side character. I don't understand any of it, but I do know that I need him. Everything about him is perfect and I need him. It reminds me of how I crave Levi. "Holy Star! What on earth is happening here?" I hear a voice above me. My eyes flash open and I behold the person looking down at me. It's Leigh, her eyes are big and she's looking around at the area by me. "It's so early, why are you guys a
The Forgotten King Chapter 53: End's Beginning
The next morning we all sat at the breakfast table. I expected there to be a sullen silence, but no, Dixie and Levin were chatting up the storm. Here I sit at the head of the table, the seat next to me is open. It's specially built for two head seats. Kathleen's sits open. The two first seats also stay open. It's etiquette, for if we ever were to have kids. Kathleen never wanted kids. She explained how she was scared of giving birth. How she felt that women are pressured into having kids. That it feels as if women's only value is to have kids. We haven't discussed who would rule the kingdom after we die. I suppose I won't die, I can only be killed. I've killed enough people for me to live at least another 1000 years. Probably plenty, upon plenty more years. Yet, Kathleen won't. She won't make it past 80. Then...I'll be all alone again. I didn't think of that, that night when she came knocking on my door. These two smiling faces in front of me also will die one da
The Forgotten King Chapter 54: No help
I was just informed of the troops that were on the side of my castle. The symbols that they bore were proof that they are from Ladian. This caused severe panic within the kingdom and castle. For me, however, it was infuriating. I thought I made sure that they left? This does mean war. Yet not right now.As a result of the fact that Alexander is lighting the most populated town on fire. It's right by the town square. Not far from the castle. I'm sure that the enemies were instructed to make sure that they don't attract attention. Yet, they decided now is the time. The knights have already trampled the town by the right and left side wings.Things are happening extremely quickly. At this moment, I honestly don't know what to do. Usually, by this time, the darkn
The Forgotten King Chapter 55: Mortals
Golden clouds and pure, heavenly sunlight. Mountains, castles wast lands that encompass a beauty beyond the mortal mind. Fresh eyes with silky smooth and soft to the point of not even feeling the fabric gowns. Hair so feathery light, seeming as if it's made out of pure crystals. This is the plane of the gods. I just knew it. I know it by heart, Moon would take me here every time he missed his family. His mother, his creator, and the friends he'd made along the way. He'd make sure that the moon was perfectly in the sky until we left. So much has changed in the time I was gone. I remember all the time on earth and the time in the heavens. I look over to my side. There he is. The man with such a history in my life. He still looks the way he always did- as Moon. On Earth, he didn't have his silver glow. None of the humans do, even myself. I found it odd, there it's harder to see- rather feel- what type of person they are. Everyone had their own colour. Moon's
The Forgotten King Chapter 56: Epilogue
Where there used to be fires as tall as houses and mothers running to protect their children there's now peace. The emanating fear of Alexander taking the kingdom over and the war running the castle flat there is now only calm. It seems to me that the mess has all been cleaned up and taken care of. I turn to Levi, our hands still twisted together. He looks down at me, his perfectly formed eyebrows raise. "What do you think happened?" He questions, shaking my head with a shrug. "I'm not sure." Suddenly I see Dixie running to us at full speed. She seems to have more royal dressed than she usually is. With the not-so-far distance, I also see a speeding Levin. He also is in much more fine clothing. Attire that we wear when we have a meeting with other royals. With extreme force, Dixie wraps her arms around my body. "Kathleen! I've missed you so much!" The short-haired girl exclaims while giving me a bone-crushing hug. I furrow my brows, huggi
The Forgotten King Pilot
"I wanted my father to see his bloodied crown that he said I'd never wear, on my head." His words made me shiver and his actions scared me even more. Yet, I still remember sitting in his lap. Enjoying every moment with him. It was up and it was down with him. Terrified as well as overcome with happiness is how I felt with every moment with him. Like beach waves, up and down. Still, all beach waves start somewhere. My fingers jumped around on the strings of my cello. It's late night. Still my village is light up. People stand all around me. Excited and amazed. The tunes from my cello flow through the air. However, when I came to a stop it all goes silent. I open my eyes. They stand in awe. Suddenly everyone erupts in cheers. It was a talent show but now it felt more like my very own
The Forgotten King Chapter 2: The castle
We've been traveling for at least a couple of hours now, the castle getting bigger by the second. I can smell the royal air surrounding it and by that I mean you can't smell any animal defecation and everything smells much fresher. The cool night air bites at my exposed arms, the small coat I'm wearing is not helping me at all. We cross a wooden bridge that dangles over a moat and enter the castle grounds. A graceful fountain with lush green grass surrounding it. Right in front of it is two wooden doors and brick laid down in front of it, making it like a town square. Even though, the town is all the way down this little mountain. The coachman, which I learned on the ride's name is Jack, opens the door and gives me a kind smile. "Come on kid, the headmistress is already chewing at my feet for being late." He says jokingly, clearly he'
The Forgotten King Chapter 3: New rules
"These are the most important rules," Edit says in her usual, sombre voice and then places a paper in front of me with bullet points listing the rules. I pick it up and start reading. • Clean your room • Respect the teacher • Feed your bat(s) The moment I read that I laughed so hard. "What bats?" I ask after recovering from my laughing fit. I continue eating my scrambled eggs as Edith explains. "Well, when the school first started they had a mango farm to import, to support the costs of the academy." She started but Anna interrupted her by saying, "She's madly obsessed with the history of this place." Edith rolls her eyes at this and says, "I am not
