Diamant Unexpected Betrayal
He was never one to wake up late, not with the hard trainings his grandpa gave him but today was an exception. The rays of the sun that creeped into the cave almost blinded him when he opened his eyes. He brought his hand up to shield his eyes and rested on an elbow. He looked around, adjusting his eyes to the light.He found Diamant who was pulling a shirt on some distance away from him. She tied her long black hair up into a ponytail. She turned to him and he remembered. He remembered their close moment had only happened yesterday. He wanted to smile at her but her hardened face stopped him."Finally, you are awake, my Lord. We would have set out at dawn but the rest was needed for you. I have surveyed the area and I have noted everywhere the guards are that is close to the cave. I hunted, so there are some roasted meat for you to eat. We must hurry, Dragon Lord..." Diamant cold voice was cut short."Drako" He corrected.Diamant clenched her teeth. She didn't want to say his name, s
Diamant Decisions
"I love you." Aaron said again desperately seeing the way Diamant was doubting herself. He took a step closer to her and DL instinctively pulled Diamant more to his back."It is pathetic for you to claim that you love her." DL said dangerously low to him."And it is pathetic for you to keep her behind your back without a reason. What? You think she will pick you? You are the reason her life is in a mess!" Aaron scoff in annoyance.Diamant sucked in a breath at that, it reminded her why she was in this situation in the first a place."I will not allow myself to fall at the feet of any distraction." She remembered what she had said and her mind was made up."You are already nothing. Why would she pick the side of the one that destroyed her life?!" Aaron concluded spitefully.DL looked away, embarrassed and angry. He had nothing to defend himself.Aaron smiled in his head with satisfaction. He looked at Diamant and stretched his hand to her, urging her to take it."Come on, I am waiting.
Diamant A Gift
His face was hard with disapproval, he looked darkly at the small muscled teenager who was panting heavily on the floor with defeat. "You haven't even fought me yet and you've already lost." His hard lips barely moved yet his cold voice penetrated the silence.The teenager swung up immediately, blinded by frustration and fury, he swung his sword at the man who easily step sided his greatly flawed attempt. The teenager fell again and the man hissed in annoyance. He took his stick and hit the teenager with it in one instant. His movement was so fast that the only evidence that it had happened was the cry of utter pain coming from the teenager and the teenager's aching back."Do you know why you will always fail like this? Because you are afraid of me. You believe that I will defeat you easily because I am the fear." The man said then crouched to the floor. He raised the boy's head with his stick under the boy's chin so that the boy could look at him.The teenage boy was shaking from c
Diamant Turned Tables
"Finally, a dungeon you can call yours out of experience." Diamant's cold voice rippled through the silence. DL looked at Diamant who was standing outside the bars, her hands held behind her back as she stared back at him coldly. The torch provided just enough light to see her twisted lips. Goben stared at her too, rage filling him with every word she said."I am afraid Lucius already beat you to that." DL replied offhandedly."Then it is one served to you by the cruel hands of betrayal." She said."That, you are right." He chuckled darkly. His back was hurting terribly from sitting too long like that but he didn't feel bothered at all."You betrayer!" Goben shouted at her, shaking with rage but Diamant looked back at him calmly through the bars."Don't make such mistakes, Goben!" She clucked her tongue playfully before she resumed talking. "I had already warned that I would be his dog as long as he had the chains, you should blame him for losing the chains so easily. He was fairly w
Diamant Mother
Then it started with just one voice, maybe that of a child, a young person or maybe even an old lady, it didn't matter. All that matter was it started and it was all the people chanted."Mother! Mother! Mother!" They were all shouting and Diamant had to look away from DL's roasted and dead body. She looked down to the people praising her for liberating them."Mother of Alusa! Mother! Mother!" They kept on chanting and Diamant looked at Aaron, her eyes conveying her surprise. He looked back at her surprised too but he smiled back at her in encouragement.Diamant stepped down from the podium and started walking into the crowd. Warriors came to rally her immediately to guide her from the seizeless touch from the people but she stopped them. She walked further into the crowd till she disappeared and latter reappeared on the shoulders of two people lifting her up while the people kept on praising her.She looked down overwhelmed and she smiled blindly at them. She had won the people and n
Diamant Fading Peace
The closer the burning body moved, the more her heart raced with fear. She stepped back mindlessly, her eyes not leaving the DL's burning body as it moved closer to her. They were there again, just that this time there was no crowd calling her Mother. There was no Aaron sitting on the throne, no Nein, no Nana. Just her on the podium and DL's burning body.She could feel the blazing heat. She looked up at him but his face was burnt, black and some of his burnt skin were falling to the ground."Go away." She whispered out of fear as she stepped back but it kept following her. She looked around quickly if there was something she could throw at it but there was nothing so she continued stepping back till she finally hit the wall. Her hands felt the wall and her heart raced knowing she was trapped. Her eyes turned glassy with fear and she looked back at the burning body that was still walking towards her."No!" She screamed but he didn't stop.When he got close enough, the heat engulfed
Diamant A Strategy
Today marked three months since it had all happened. The distance between he and Clara grew, the void strong enough to devour them. Three months of her acting to him like he was a total stranger. It wasn't like he wanted to keep track of how long this had cut him, he just had no choice but to watch time go by and his heart die slowly.This wasn't the love he had hoped for. This wasn't what he had wanted when he betrayed the Dragon Lord.He hit the wall again and kicked it severally. This anger in him was raging, the hurt running through him and he had to just look for a way to push it all out."They drive us nuts, don't they?" He heard a voice and turned around."Your Majesty." He bowed immediately, paying Aaron respect.Aaron made a sign and he stood up."They drive us well out of our minds." He commented with a smile and Lewis rubbed his aching knuckles."She won't still talk to you?" Aaron asked."Yes, Sire. She now hates me." Lewis replied heartbroken."But you will still do ever
Diamant Memories of the Dead
The hall was filed to the brim as many people tried to be present for the union. They watched as the priest declared Natty and Malik as husband and wife. The new couples were overjoyed.Soon enough it was time for the ball. The instrumentalists got into action and the music filled the air. The ballroom looked so beautiful.Diamant felt someone tap on her shoulder while she was trying hard to look for Sunain in the crowd. She could hear little whispers and when she turned, Aaron was smiling at her."Shall I have this dance, My Lady?" He asked her with a smile and she could see DL once again.She stood frozen for a second while all she could hear was DL's voice saying to her."Shall I have this dance, my Ania." She could still even feel his warm hands on her. But why? He was dead and she had made sure of it. Why were this memories everywhere she turned?She accepted his outstretched hand and Aaron started dancing with her.But with each step they took, she remembered him. For her, it wa
