"You are not human, like us, are you?" The words left my mouth in whispers as my eyes glanced around eyeing the destruction caused by the two men. 

Two men who had effectively taken out Twenty guards. All heavily armed and trained. 

But now, not even one old get up. 

"What gave that away?" My companion, who I had feelings for, mocked. 

"Perhaps the strength we displayed caused her to see reality," in the blink of an eye, he was in front of me making me stumble back in fear. "Is that not true, Princess?" 

I looked to the man who was silent and ever watchful. "Why? Why were you not true?" I loved him, only him I let myself feel for. 

He glanced around and spotted Diwal, my trusted advisor. "No one is true in nature here," he pointed to my advisor, "Not even him." 

Unwanted tears came to my eyes as I glanced around me. I could die tonight and it would all be in their hands. 

"Don't worry, your highness, it's just the time for it to come to light." 

My advisor smiled and so did the other two men.

The bulky, muscular King to be. 

And a Princess.

When the musicians started to play the instruments everyone looked away from us and started their conversations. I could feel their gaze on me from time to time.

I looked at Tristan to find him looking at me as he said his observation. I nodded.

"Why? I thought you agreed to give this a chance?"

I frowned slightly realising that he was talking to me while the entire courtroom was filled with the creatures that could hear everything no matter how quietly it was said.

"Don't worry about that," he took my hand in his, "there is a spell casted on this room. No one can hear anything and even if they can, one learns to tune unwanted things out."
