THE BEAUTY HE SAW
The masked festival? She asked and he nodded.
Yes, the masked festival. He said and continued writing..How... Where. How did you see me? I was masked. She said.
You unmasked. He said.
No, I didn't. I remember clearly, I unmasked when I got to the water flow. She said again.Yes, I know. I followed you there. He said and paused.
You... Followed me there? Why? She asked perturbed.
Because you....FLASHBACK
The drums were heard, flutes played and the Kings of each clan walked in.King Nicklaus hated parties, festivals, anything that included music. He hated it after that night.
But he had no choice, it was a tradition that all King's must be present.
He walked in and sat on his seat. The festival continued with more music and dancing.He got up and walked outside, he hated the sound he was hearing.
He walked till he got to a point. He saw a lady standing at the flower side.Picking up flowers but her face was masked.
Her body told how beautiful her face could be, possessed by her beauty, he followed her, walking behind her.He wondered why a beauty like her wasn't here with her bodyguard.
For sure, he knew she was Royalty. Maybe because of her expensive silk, steady steps and lifted shoulders. Her every move was Royalty.
He followed her till the got to the water flow, she dropped the flowers and unmasked.
For a minute, he was lost. He has never seen this kind of beauty.
Which Kingdom does she hail from? He wondered.He sighed and left.
Who was that Princess in fine silk? He asked the other guards.
Ohh... That's Princess Lara from the Kingdom of Tules. A guard said and bowed.He was right, she is a Princess.
He is going to get her by all means.** PRESENT**
Ohh My God. Lara shrieked.All this while, you loved me? She asked and he face his scrolls, still writing.Talk to me, Nicklaus. She half yelled.
What? What should I say. He growled and sighed.You are a nut job. She said pouting.
Ohh... So, you love me this much. Wow, I can't believe it. She yelled.He shook his head wondering why he even told her about it.
Ohh, don't worry Nicklaus. It isn't a one-sided love. She said and he turned his head. What? He asked.I love you too...

Written by Evelyn Mba©®©®AN HAPPY ENDINGThree years LaterThe Ray of sun shone in the dark room. Darkness fled... It was another bright day.Slowly Lara yawned and her eyes lid open, scrutinising the whole room.It's morning already. She muttered and glanced at the huge wall clock in front of her. Oh my!! It's 11:45am. She gasp.She tilted her head, her eyes on the man who laid beside her.She smiled, dropping her head on his chest. It's three years now... Since they both stayed in the same room.Before they stayed in different rooms but Nicklaus had insisted they stayed in his room.It's up to three years now.. since she have birth to her beautiful Twin. God, they look so pretty and handsome.It's been three years now.. since she was ordained Queen Officially. She has taken that role and they people love her so much.

Mom, am I pregnant?I mean... Am pregnant. Right? How will I know that without examining you? Queen Belinda rubbed her forehead.But Kelan saw right through me and you can't? She said, taking a seat.Kelan has powers... I don't? She shrug. So, how do we do it? She pouted, her hands on her belly.Okay, first of all... Take off your clothes. Uhh.. my clothes?I should strip? Lara asked and Queen Belinda scoffed.Am your mother not the King who asks you to strip every minute. Queen Belinda teased.Mom... Lara yelled, her cheek crimson red. So, what now? Aren't you taking them off.Lara stood up

And him accepting it like this made her heart danced.This man surely loves her. She wrapped her hands around him, hugging him.I love you so much Nicklaus, so much. She whispered.He chuckled and pulled out of the hug.I love you too.Now, let's go see your brother. He said, smiling. She nodded and they both left.*****Beth walked a long way to the Palace. She just left her Grandfather's building, which was a very long way.She panted, walking to the Queen's room. She just have to say sorry.She walked into the Palace and looked around.Is it her?

Or go get the Queen.He doesn't know what to do.Why would she go there?What does she wants from an old witch. The king detests people with such abilities.He detests them so much. Moving tho and fro, he sighed.He had to tell the King about this....*****The TWIN'S of who? Lara asked.The TWIN'S OF GOLDIES. That's what you are both called. Mother Colia said.And you have to do it now...You have to hold hands before it's too late..You have to be strong. He needs you now than ever.Nicklaus needs you.

It frightens him.What is Hakki? King Leon asked.It's... It's about the kingdom of Athopa. He said.What about them? King Leon stood up.Anything concerning the kingdom of Athopa, he's always there to listen.There's a strong power there, a very strong one. The priest said.What kind of power? King Leon asked, perturbed about the whole situation. A strong power?A very strong one, I don't know what it is but one of the possessors is very close to the king.So close that, nothing can happen to him. The priest said again. Disturbed that no matter what, their king will still push through with the war.Hmph. King Leon said, his hand

Her favorite place, where she can spend a whole day.Kali, did you bring the crayons? Lara asked and Kali nodded. I would never forget such Princess. Kali said.You forget a lot of things Kali. Lara said.I don't forget things. Kali said.Okay, what about that day at mother's knitting room.When I was knitting my dragon.I specifically told you to remind me, cause I really wanted to deal with those girls that were blabbing their mouth.They were so noisy and irritating. Lara said, gritting her teeth. Calm down Princess,their still at the Palace. Kali said Chuckling.The day looks nice Kal
