Of Glory and Of Doom THIRTY NINE - A search
She had sent word. Laura paced around her bedroom, her arms akimbo. She had sent word to Nicholas, His father, King Eric had sent word and still there hasn't been any reply. In all honesty,aura doubted that the letters were reaching him. She had asked Gaston about Prince Nicholas's whereabouts and even he didn't know, didn't divulge the information. Laura sank to her bed. Trying to tell herself to calm down. A week had passed since Prince Nicholas had left the palace and to say that she wasn't worried, would be a lie. Her heart beat furiously when she thought about how he must be faring. She might be foolish or overly sensitive, but she felt it in her that something was wrong. It wasn't like Prince Nicholas not to reply to her letters or even to his father's letters. Laura tried not to let the matter to vex her. She had developed a splitting headache last night and went to bed early. Annoyingly, the head pain had accompanied her this morning as she opened her eyes and it hadn't g
Of Glory and Of Doom FORTY - A kiss
UNKNOWNThe Vampire Prince's personal guard, Gaston, rode beside him. He tried not to let his disgust show, he was surrounded by both Vampire guards and werewolf guards and what infuriated him the more was the way they interacted freely with each other, like they were one species. He supposed that Laura getting married to their Prince brought about such union but he'd never let that happen. The werewolf kingdom was his and he'd be damned if he let anything take it from him. They had left the palace a few hours ago and still continued riding. The spoiled brat and this surly guard sitting beside him had carried out their own investigation and found out that Prince Nicholas had ventured towards the Kayaans, those brutal warriors. He really hoped that the Prince would be dead so that his work would be taken care of. "Our men trailed his movements to the borders of the Kayaan territory." Gaston was speaking with one of the men and he ran his features over them all. Pale, vampiric skin a
Of Glory and Of Doom FORTY ONE - Slowly Falling
Prince Nicholas couldn't get the anger inside of him out. His head kept on replaying the conversation between the elders and the commander which he heard. He had heard of the long standing hatred between the vampires and Kayaans but the vampires had no plans to kill the kaayans. He couldn't believe other kingdoms had spies in his kingdom. The vampire kingdom was heavily guarded so how were they able to get spies?He looked at the full proof plan on his table but decided against it and squeezed the paper chucking it to where the other scrambled paper were. He couldn't conceive a reasonable plan to protect his kingdom from the Kayaans and other kingdoms. He couldn't also believe the fairies had agreed to become allied with the kaayans and other states. He remembered the king had led the war to liberate the fairies from the witches. It was hard to believe they had gone against the vampire kingdom despite they were the closest kingdom with the vampire. It was shocking. He needed to ge

Then she remembered the meeting with the elders. Her grin faded instantly realizing she was slowly falling in love with her enemy.The commander felt her heart dip as she realized she was falling in love with her enemy. She was in the arms of the enemy. He had his arms wrapped around her and it broke her heart to know that he was leaving the kingdom for his and she had no idea when next she was going to see him.She felt safe and secure in his arms. She felt like a child with him always vulnerable and giving all her trust to him. She believed he wouldn't hurt her or her people. The time she had spent with him had convinced her he was harmless. She trusted and defended him over her subjects. It was hard to believe the elders. After hearing all they said she didn't know how to feel about his but one feeling she still had for him was affection. She still cared about him and so when he had told her he was leaving for his kingdom was knew she had to come say her goodbye and it hurt her. S
Of Glory and Of Doom FORTY THREE - Mask
Nicolas was to return back, he knew that he had taken up more time than he let on. He didn't want his mind to wonder to how Laura would be faring. He had cleansed his mind of any pest, anything, anybody that wasn't Lily. After their first kiss, it was as though he had a factory reset, everything, everyone, nothing mattered to him anymore. Not like how she did.He hadn't even told her that he was to be married to someone he hated with so much passion, a spoiled brat who still stayed awake because she wanted the maids to read her a fairytale story. He didn't even want to see her again but as it is, he needed to leave. How to tell Lily? How to tell her that his stay has become over welcomed, how he has been away from where he should be for far too long and how he has nearly forgotten why he was here.He found that it would be so much easier if he started to pack his bag, while he was coming he brought a sack, slung over his shoulders but this time, it would be strapped on his horse... If
Of Glory and Of Doom FORTY FOUR - Farewell
What was she even talking about? Nicolas made a face that screamed 'No!' but she beat him to it"You can't say no, someone has to protect you from all the evils that lurks out there" she cocked her brows, he laughed at this but he knew she was serious so to let matters be, he closed his eyes and nodded a yes not like he had any choice about what was going to happen, she had her mind made up and he made his made up on leaving. ****Laura couldn't believe why anybody would want to go through these forests, to be fair, she was frightened about what may or may not be lurking in this path, she might as well face her death here, she would die for love, how romantic but how utterly foolish of how now that she reasoned it, she was the heir to her kingdom but he was left in their care and he had been misplaced and soon, alot of things would jumble up and form a huge mess, it was her job as heiress to solve that problem. ****Lily walked hand in hand with Nicolas on the bush path back to the
Of Glory and Of Doom FORTY FIVE - Coincidence
Laura couldn't believe her eyes, all this while and he was here! She was uncannily out of character when she rushed towards him and hugged him so tightly, despite the thorns that stood between the two of them, she drew back from him after she realized that he had put just a hand on her back in a friendly pat that in doubt irked her, she got so furious that here she was feeling foolish and he had decided to run off with no note of what he was doing or where he was going, she drew back and slapped him. It shocked her that she was capable of it and it shocked Nicolas that she had done so."You left me! You left me to worry! You left me to do what?! What would your father say,huh! What would he say if he knew about your little escapade and attention seeking ceremony that you so constructed, what is wrong with you!" She shrieked after the sting from the slap had subsided. She hadn't even noticed that there was a third person there with them, she only saw him. He was the only thing that was

What if she didn't come home with prince Nicolas? What if prince Nicolas had really absconded? Not that he blamed the boy. Princess Laura was a handful and a bitch sometimes.But with Nicolas taking off to gods knew where, he'd soiled the plan so meticulously carved out and it was making him very angry.

This was bad.Pacing around, he began to think because time was no longer on his side. He wouldn't wait for Laura to come before he would do something. Who knew if the stupid girl hadn't been wandering around since in the bush, walking around in circles? Laura was, in his opinion, as clueless as a toothbrush.As he paced round, the idea struck him so hard,
