2022-07-05 03:55:54Servants were lined up to welcome the second princess.
" Ella was supposed to arrive an hour ago. What if something happened to her?"
The Empress felt nervous. She kept on pacing back and forth in the living room. The Empress was wearing a maroon gown with a silver crown and silver and diamond earrings.
The Crown Prince, Max, and his father, the Emperor seem relaxed as they enjoy playing chess with each other.
" Nicholas! Your daughter is missing but you still look calm"
" Our daughter is a grown lady who knows what's right and what's wrong. Wherever she is right now, she is probably doing fine", The Emperor said.
The Empress sat down beside the Emperor and asked.
" Do you think that Ella will be upset with the arranged marriage?"
" I don't think that she will be upset. She grew up knowing that she had certain duties towards the people of Etroana. Besides, the second prince is most likely to be the Crown Prince and the Emperor later on. By then Ella would be the Empress of Gwacary", said the Emperor.
" If we send Ella to Gwacary, wouldn't it mean that Etroana is weaker?! Isn't it better to just wage war?"
The Empress whispered angrily.
" Jane, don't you know my ulterior motive by supporting the second prince of Gwacary?"
The Empress shook her head.
" The first prince was always the heir but recently, his mother and the Emperor of Gwacary have been on bad terms, and the first prince messed up during the visit to Vissuinao. Now the nobles of Gwacary are thinking of switching sides. The second prince is smart but you have known him too. He-"
" Your Majesty, Princess Gabriella is here", one of the servants informed the Emperor about the arrival of the princess.
" Escort her to her chambers to freshen up first", said the Emperor.
The servant nodded and bowed before leaving.
" As I was saying..."
----
Gabriella jumped into her bed after taking a shower. As she was about to fall asleep, there was a knock on the door. Gabriella took a deep breath and got up.
She opened the door to see maids bring in a rack filled with clothes. She asked one of the maids about the clothes.
" This is for the formal dinner with the esteemed guest from Gwacary", said the maid.
'Gwacary? Isn't Etroana on bad terms with Gwacary? '
Gabriella was curious about this esteemed guest so she quickly got dressed with the help of the maids.
----
Gabriella walked down the stairs wearing a silk maroon v-neck off-the-shoulder long-sleeved gown. Diamond earrings dangle from her ear. Her elbow-length red hair was curled and the front strands of her hair were clipped back. The slits in the dress showed off Gabriella's long fair legs as she walked.
When Gabriella entered the dining room, she saw what Beatrice, Riley, and Helena were wearing.
Beatrice wore a green puff sleeve gown with long sleeves and an around her neck emerald necklace. Her shoulder-length platinum blonde was straightened.
Helena wore a strapless ankle-length black dress with pearl stud earrings. Her black hair was done in a clean bun with strands of hair shaping her face.
Riley wore an orange floral knee-length dress with her curly hair straightened.
The three girls sat at the dining table having a pleasant conversation. Gabriella sat across Beatrice who sat with her fiance, Max who also happened to be Gabriella's brother, the Crown Prince.
" Who is this esteemed guest from Gwacary?", asked Gabriella.
" I don't know either", Riley said.
" According to the gossip, it's the second prince of Gwacary", Helena said.
" The who?"
" I didn't know that Gwacary had two princes"
Before Helena could say anything else a servant announced the arrival of the Emperor, the Empress, and the esteemed guest from Gwacary. All eyes were on the door. The Emperor and Empress arrived hand in hand. Behind them was a man with pale skin, dark monolid eyes, thin lips, a straight nose, and upwards eyebrows. His black hair was combed back and he was wearing a clean black suit.
' That's...the guy from the airport!!!'

Gabriella and Helena were in Gabriella's room. Both of them were sitting on Gabriella's bed with the basket in between the two of them. No one said anything. They were still shocked by what they saw. They were speechless. They were disappointed and mad." So she has been cheating on him the whole time?", Gabriella broke the silence as she asked." Seems like it"" After all that he had done for her...how could she be so cruel towards him? How could she still face him with a smile, hug him, and talk to him as if she had never done anything? "" I told you. She was born an actress. What are we going to do now? He will be broken if he knew the truth. "" He deserves to know the truth. "" So we are taking her down?"" Of course. No one and I mean no one is allowed to deceive him. "" So what's the plan?"" I will tell you later. Right now, we need to pay Riley a visit. "" Let's get going then. We need to change our clothes.

" Oh..."" I will be leaving now. Goodbye, I will see you soon!", said Gabriella as she walked out of the room.Myles felt a hint of disappointment.' She left so quickly...'---Gabriella walked out of the room in long and fast strides. Her heart was beating faster than usual. She thought that it was because she was basically jogging so she stopped for a moment and leaned against a wall.She placed her hand over her heart and took deep breaths.Gabriella saw Helena walking towards her carrying a basket of fruits and other various snacks. Helena was eating strawberries and grinning." Where did you get that?"" Someone sent it to me. I think it's a secret admirer. "" A secret admirer?"" Yeah, the lady who brought it to me said that it was from a secret admirer."" And you don't know who it is yet you are eating it?"" Yes. I checked for curses and poison. There is none of that in this basket. "Gabriella spotted a little clear box filled with muffins and held her hand out." I'm not

She flew to his side within seconds and knelt beside him. Everyone was extra quiet. You could hear the breathing of the hundreds of people present. The healers that were hiding earlier, slowly came out of their hiding spots to see why it was so quiet all of a sudden. When they saw Myles, they immediately rushed to his aid with their tools. They heard the quiet sobs of someone and as they went closer to Myles, the sobbing grew louder. They saw Gabriella sobbing. Her tears were...somehow gold in color and they stained the area of Myles's shirt where his heart was. The healers stepped back and watched in awe. ---- ( This part of the chapter is from Myles's POV) A ray of sunlight attacked my eyes as soon as I opened them and I immediately closed them and turned to my right and then opened them again. I saw a human sleeping on a chair while resting her face on my bed. It was Gabriella. Her flaming red hair was scattered across the bed. It covered parts of her face too. I swept her hai

Myles ran to the private hospital wing in the palace. Currently, it was the only place in the palace that hasn't been attacked by the creatures and Dragons that joined the fight letter on. The whole way there, he kept shaking her seemingly lifeless body and begging her to open her eyes. Crystal clear beads of water fell from his eyes and he cried in despair.When he got to the hospital wing, the whole place was empty. Not a single soul was to be seen. He fell to his knees and cried even harder. He was lost.Myles looked at Gabriella's still body. Her face was beautifully sculpted by god. She had naturally long lashes, and her eyebrows were perfectly shaped and didn't look like they could be cousins. Her plump lips were beginning to lose pigment and turned as pale as her skin.Just then, a gigantic claw of a dragon broke through the wall. The impact caused small pieces of bricks and dust to go everywhere. Luckily, Myles had turned around just in time so the pieces of bricks and dust di

Empress Jane ended up on the floor from the impact of the explosion. One of the creatures came at Empress Jane. It wasn't flying or walking.

The sky turned dark and clouds began forming. It quickly became windy. The wind was blowing in the direction of the west. Palace guards were lining up at each palace to search it. The thunder broke the quiet atmosphere.One of the palace guards looked above to see something, something that was huge, something that was moving towards them." Look at the sky!"Everyone stretched their necks to look at the sky. They were horrified by what they saw. Creatures clothed in long black capes that had tears that revealed their bone-like figures. They reached their black hands with long sharp nails in an attempt to attack everyone in sight.People were running around in an attempt to save themselves whereas Helena sneaked into the western palace where Gabriella was staying in.
