"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.

A gentle yet cold bastard prince. 

The bulky, muscular King to be. 

And a Princess.

I walked back to the dressing room where Dorothy was already standing. I could tell by her face that Tristan had already entered my room which is why I did not delay meeting him anymore.

I turned to his direction and bowed my head, "Good evening."

He sighed softly and moved closer to me. "Do not talk to me like that." His fingers traced my jaw, "all but you, should not talk to me like that."

Unconsciously, I leaned more into his touch and nodded. Even though I was well aware of what I was doing it was hard to pull away from him. Something constantly attracted me towards him and I constantly blamed it on the bond that I have been made aware of.

"I was told you were going to bring something for me." I whispered, knowing that his Vampire ears could hear them well. I partly spoke and broke the moment because it was too much to be in.
