"So, you're here, huh?" A deep voice behind me asked and that made me statued on where I am standing. For a year of staying with him, I already know.his voice and I can and will never be mistaken.
How did he even get here and how the fuck did he manage to enter the palace's vicinity?
I immediately turn around, wanting to make sure if I'm right and there I saw him again- not with his kind and an angelic face but a devilish one which I have never seen on him before.
It's him- that old man whom I treated as my father because he really is but then he just gave me misery and betrayal.
But no... How did he get here? How did he manage to pass through the security? This can't be happening now!
He smirked at me when he saw my puzzled and worried face so I made my expression hard and brave for him not to see that I'm surprised to see him here.

"What's the matter, mi Reina?" Cayden asked me the moment he noticed my worried expression."He's... Here," I said, didn't bother to tell his name yet he immediately got it and that left him a hard yet worried expression just the same as mine the moment I saw that old man again."Who?" He asked even though I know that he definitely has an idea whom I'm talking about."My father-" that's the last thing I said before I saw him walk out of the door without even letting me know where he'll go but I know that he'll just inform his parents about what happened. He didn't even bother asking me what he told me but it would be better to talk about this with everyone.We won't waste our time from now on or else he'll have his own way faster than ours.Honestly, I have no idea what I should tell him and how I should approach him. We've bid each other our goodbye
It opened. Yes, it did. At first, I thought it won't for the first time my hand landed on it, it created an irritating and unknown sound which I think is part of the explosion that will happen because I failed- we failed.That time, I was ready to accept that I failed and so as ready to die with everyone here but when the door suddenly opened, that's when my hope came back, I was overwhelmed that finally, everything will now come to an end but no, I shouldn't celebrate this early yet. We haven't seen the Clepsydra yet- if it's still here and I hope it still is.My father should not get a hold of it anymore or else all of it will be messy again.I am the first one to step inside the room and there I saw an hourglass-shaped container with lots of tubes connected to it. There's nothing in this room except for that but no one tried walking towards it aside from Cayden's father.He
Damn it. My head feels like hell and it feels like I'll be sick any moment from now when I haven't actually drunk any alcoholic drinks for a while now.I just feel so dizzy. I freaking want to vomit everything that I ate and that made me run towards the bathroom.I just continued puking even though I felt a presence behind me which I think was Cayden. I felt him hold the hairs that are covering my face and caress my back softly."Mi Reina? What happening to you? Are you hurt? Do you want me to call a doctor?" He asked worriedly but I shook my head as a response and cleaned up."No... I'm fine. Maybe I just ate something bad yesterday," I answered but that's not actually what I think it is. Lately, I kinda feel something different in my body and I don't know if this is good or bad.I don't know. I don't want to admit it but it doesn't mean that I don'
"No, Heszhia! You need to stay here! I can't let you risk yourself and our baby for such a stupid decision!" Cayden exclaimed when I told him that I'll fight. I still can manage to do that even with this situation of mine. I trust myself."But-""No buts. You'll stay here and won't come whenever we're planning," he said and left the room with me still standing on where he left me.My most fearful moment has come. A war will happen again and this time I'm part of it- I want to be part of it yet Cayden won't let me. There may be a huge chance for them to win but everyone knows that they are the evil ones. My father has poisoned their minds already and if they will engage themselves in the war, then they will be fighting against the Vasileìas whom they think as the other way around when the truth is they'll be teaming up with the real culprit in this misery that we're experiencing.&nbs
"Hello, my gorgeous daughter. Missed me?" He asked wearing his smirk and that made me step backward; my breathing hitched and that made me observe my surroundings and find out that I'm away from Cayden and from everyone that I know."Dad- oh, should I call you Trevon? After all, you don't deserve being called dad. You don't even deserve being a father because you never acted one," I said insulting the hell out of him I want to get on his nerves. I want to see him lose his patience with me but he doesn't seem to be affected by that, rather, he just laughed at me which I didn't expect will be his reaction but well, what should I even expect? He's insane after all.And yes, I already know his name. Maybe he didn't tell it to me back then but it isn't hard to know."Thanks for that compliment, my lovely daughter but I'm not here to have such a conversation with you. Goodnight for now," he said but I know wh
Sam is... My sister? But how did that happen? Then dad had another woman to impregnate in the past? Oh my God. My poor sister. I can't even imagine his misery living with that devil and she can't fight him. Now that she knows I exist and that she really has a sister, that's when she also needs to sacrifice his life for the sake of everyone and me.If it wasn't for her, then I'm the one who will need to sacrifice my life for the sake of others. I would need to volunteer for there's no other way that we can do just to spare someone from sacrificing their lives but Sam... At such a young age, she managed to have a decision that's as heavy as that but why does she even need to do that when she can just run away and spare herself? Why does of all people, it's always my family that needs to sacrifice to stop our own family?Why does my sister need to sacrifice herself just for the sake of others? Fuck this life! Fuck that old man! I di
That day is when we started living normally again. I found out how everything disappeared and how those technologies turn into ashes. Yes, the Vasileìas are still reigning in this world but not as the evil ones just like how I thought of them before but the ones who will definitely do everything for the world to be a better place to live in.It's amazing how the world literally changed completely in just a span of seconds. It's amazing how broken and miserable it is when I closed my eyes but the moment I opened it, it seems like I'm in a completely different world that I never imagine our world can still be this mesmerizing.My father really did something evil in this world that it became hell because of him but now that his reign ended, I'm proud to make everyone see how beautiful the world really is without someone controlling everyone just for power. Maybe in the near future, someone like him will happen again, as I've
"Mommy!" Our daughter shouted with her soft voice, she seems to be sleepy already but then she still ran towards us and sat between me and Cayden, her eyes were twinkling with such innocence visible in them. There a can see a fine young lady that she will become.At such a young age, she didn't wish for toys or anything that she can play with, she just wanted to train all day, read books, and sleep. I even thought she's more mature than I am when I was in her age.Hermione Cashia Croñelo Donovan. That's her name that suits her beauty well. It's been six years and now she's five years old. At first, I was so nervous thinking about what I'll do to be a perfect mother for them. I've seen my dad and observed how undeserving he is to be called anyone's father and that's what I'm worried about right now. I'm always asking myself what I can do to deserve them.I'm afraid that my future children will als
