Sweetheart found himself standing still even after the queen had left the magistrate's office, he turned to him…his eyes stayed on him for a while, looking at the defeated magistrate alone made him smirk.
Cassandra sat in her carriage with a pleasant smile on her face, suddenly the atmosphere was nice in her favor even though the sun had opened its mouth wider than usual. She still felt a slight burning sensation on her skin but ignored it as well, her eyes landed on sweetheart coming out, his hair was left loose on his back, a few fleeing as the air blew and he didn't look bothered bu the sun at all…. He looked unreal, like a god with all beauty and the charm.
He stretched out, his muscles moving while he did and the queen drooled.
' ARE YOU DONE DROOLING' a voice echoed in her head and she turned, sweetheart was not looking at her and she wandered who it was. Her instinct told her the boy was guilty…..
Sweetheart frowned when the guards came to him and he looked at the queen offended and she rolled her eyes at him. " You won't even let me breathe?" His tone had changed and Cassandra stared at him, " Do you even love me?" He asked in a confused tone and that, that brought down her walls, her face changed completely….. of course she did!
" let him come at his own will" she said and the guards fell back. For the first time since ...Sweetheart stared at her in disbelief, the queen was full of surprises.
The carriage had started moving when he sat opposite her and stared outside the carriage window. " Are you taking me back to your prison milady?" He asked simply like it was normal to do so and the queen didn't speak to him, she rolled her eyes like he was throwing one of his tantrums again, which he was not.
" Do you have anywhere else to go?"she asked him after sometime of feeling his mood swing and he didn't look at her…..it not like he didn't have any where else to go, just that people didn't like him anywhere and he wandered why not even when he actually owned the place!
" Why keep me in a brothel prison when you want me for yourself or is this thought wrong, Milady?" He asked without looking at her, he looked harmless with his position.
" You should know better, I don't like people touching my things!" The queen spoke in a matter of fact and Sweetheart chuckled slightly, he found it funny…..the way she considered him an item in possession.
" Exactly…..why put me there? In a whorehouse filled with whores and fuck men! They don't mind touching your THINGS, Milady " He spoke coolly still looking outside the carriage window, ignoring the fuming anger that was coming from the queen she has always been like that, it's not like he was even scared of her….he just couldn't feel scared of anything.
" I certainly wouldn't let you go…" she spoke finally and sweetheart nodded knowingly without arguing but his eyes said otherwise, with the way they twinkled.
" You can keep me by your side, that should be in the palace since that's were you stay…..I wouldn't be touched there without your permission, Milady " he said seriously his eyes urging the queen to reason with him and she sighed loudly.
The next thing he was walking on his feet without his shackles for the first time in so many years, did it actually worked! He smiled as he walked down the palace compound and everyone stared at him warily but then stared at their queen with wonder and disgust lingering in the air.
FREEDOM!….
But was he truly locked up or was it just him allowing himself to be…..
His eyes roamed around like he was getting familiar with the palace and he chuckled, this was big but still lower than what he knew and he shook his head at the thought. The queen left him alone and went to meet the elders of the royal family, they had been there since morning and she intentionally left to get her man, " There she is! Whore queen!"
Cassandra didn't turn to any of the words being thrown at her, it's not like she wasn't guilty….she walked with her head higher than usual, her body flowed alongside her crimson dress and her hair left loose in waves like the ocean made her look like she was floating.
" So what did you old asses want ?" She asked casually like it was okay and the elders stared at her dumbfounded, she was crazy!
'....Run all you want, I promised I'd come for you Logan, I keep my promises you know…'
Logan crawled in his own pool of blood while the dark figure loomed over him in the dimly lit room. The figure grabbed him by the neck and pinned him on the wall, more blood poured on the floor by the movement and his eyes widened when the face of his attacker came into view, he couldn't say anything as his heart was ripped out of his chest. ' your heart is darker than I thought, hell you go…' the voice came again and Logan dropped to the floor lifeless.
The next morning sweetheart sat on a dark brown horse with a satisfied smile and only frowned when an arrow came at him and he was shocked at how his instinct and even his body had moved him away.
" are you okay?" Someone asked from the other side and Sweetheart stared at the guy indifferently, like he made a big mistake if he was responsible for his attack and the guy raised his arms up. " I didn't attack you but I can promise your attacker is in hell by now….aand—
" Think you would believe me if you were in my place?" Sweetheart asked with a raised brow and the stranger stared at him with opened mouth.
Sweetheart guided his horse to the left his eyes near leaving the other guy who still looked stupid, he just turned to leave when he heard the annoying voice of the stranger again. " I am Ivan! Can I come with you….I mean you need protection!!" He said and sweetheart waved him away like saying 'SHOOO!!'
Ivan stupidly followed even though Sweetheart clearly showed how much he disliked his being…. " Right! As I was saying —
" Shut up!" Sweetheart had had enough of his continues blabbering, he looked at sweetheart offended, somewhat as he shook it off and began all again at it until the gates of the place came into view and Sweetheart turned to him. " I hope we never meet again " he said coolly ignoring the fake hurt expression of Ivan.
Just as he was about to leave another arrow came at him again and this time Ivan had pulled sweetheart off his stallion to the ground missing the attack again, maybe and the queen had come in with her guards surrounded them and sweetheart now recovering from the shock and fall his eyes narrowed at Ivan who stood there with his arm bleeding.
Cassandra was fuming when they entered the palace walls, she couldn't believe someone wanted to kill her man, at this point she could do anything for him and she glared at her commander. Did he offend her?
Ivan stood there quietly and sweetheart kept his dark eyes on him all the time, like studying the man and Ivan didn't look at him, more like he was not conscious of himself and when tried to move he landed on the floor, his eyes were wide but his whole limbs were numb….
' See the monster!' A boy cheered and followed by the other and then mockery bloomed mad, with reddish blur vision could see their dark frames very sure they were young vampires and then looked down seeing his barefoot that were dirty and bloody alongside his palms and his heart started racing, hands being pointed at his direction and the rejection he felt was pure.
" It took you longer than I thought" sweetheart spoke his voice deeper and he tried to clear his throat, his sleeping had gotten worse and Ivan stared at him, his eyes serious for the first time and sweetheart rolled his eyes at him. " What?" He asked looking at the window as he stood up, " how long has it been happening…..I'm sure you don't even know, do you?" Ivan spoke seriously and Sweetheart turned to him.
His eyes just lowered at his wound and he turned back to the dark sky, " Say something? I almost died for the second time and I'm concerned— " you're just stupid, too stupid and why did you follow me, am I supposed to take the blame for your dying?" Sweetheart changed the subject and Ivan looked offended and this time it was real, he wandered why the Orobas was just like that on every level!
" well as stupid as I am, I know there's something wrong with you and— Ivan stopped talking when his eyes fell on Sweetheart's neck, his shirt had moved apart when stretching out, Sweetheart turned his face to the side the moonlight fell on him, his dark markings clearly in view.
" If you speak of this to anyone, I will find you and send you to hell…" He spoke coldly sending the chills.
