Light of My Life! ( Mikey X Y/N)
Start of the long awaited fate!
I am walking in the corridors of Palace of Petra..the only Kingdom that welcomes exiled Princess or princes like me... carrying all the gold my father gave me as per my weight..
Yes I am exiled at the age of 11... for my father takes me as a shame for his existence.... for I am not good enough as his daughter... but this all are just excuses... reality is...
I accidentally killed a boy older than me...
I pushed him hard when he tried to still the only memory of my dead mother.. her lyra..
he fell on the ground.. breaking his skull..I heard the voice..and watched him..as he laid on the ground..his head slowly covering in his own blood...I watched him die slowly...
I didn't mean it...but being naive..I confessed the murder infront of everyone..and now here I am.. seeking shelter in other kingdom.. walking through the corridors of palace...of kingdom Petra..being guided by the guards towards the room of the only Prince... Michael... famously known as Manjiro..
Y/n (age 11)
*gets in the room as the royal guard opens the door to his royal bedroom*
guard
your highness...this is the new foster daughter..king of Petra has adopted...
Manjiro (age 12)
..Hmm? *lazily laying on bed as he turns to look at her, as his one hand holds Lyra*
I look at him...he is just has I heard from the rumours... gorgeous features..golden hair..a handsome young prince of almost my age..
why wouldn't he be.. afterall his mother is goddess...and father..one of the biggest warrior I ever heard about...
His mother doesn't live with him..she is sea goddess..immortal.. living in the deepest caves in the sea..
I heard the story of his birth..his father r*ped his mother.. being offered by the supreme gods...as a price of his brave acts..
And his father accepted it...who wouldn't want to clean their mortal blood with that of divine God's blood..
his mother.. goddess of the sea..obeyed the higher gods..but she had conditions..
She won't stay in the palace as the wife of the king.. but she will come to see her son once in awhile..
For she is preparing him has the greatest warrior...the prophecy the gods said at his birth..
That Manjiro will be the strongest warrior of all time..
I watch him lazily laying on the bed..as his dark eyes look at me...
I already don't like him..
life at palace!
Continuation of last episode..
Manjiro (age 12)
..What is your name?
I remain silent...as if I didn't hear him..
Manjiro (age 12)
What is your name? *his voice abit louder than before*
Manjiro (age 12)
Your kingdom?
Y/n (age 11)
It doesn't matter...I can't claim it anymore..as I am exiled princess..
Manjiro (age 12)
show her..her new home..*as he orders the guard*
I look at him one last time..as his eyes follows me walking out of the his room...
His beautiful eyes...but I don't like his attitude..
Later that day...I am taken to the room..I have to share with other exiled or homeless girls..they are not much.. around 8 ...yet I am unable to talk with single one of them..
Later I join other fosters kids including many boys around my age in the lunch hall...
Boys exceed girls here..for they are around 30 already...
The food is simple...but is a healthy meal...
I sit at the corner of the table alone...I don't think anyone wants to talk to me... after knowing the reason of my exile somehow...they probably are scare of me..
I am about to start my lunch..when I see a familiar figure at the other corner of the table.. laughing and talking with some boys...
His beautiful features...the bright Aura he radiates almost make me stare at him..yes I am talking about Manjiro..
I am looking at him.. almost staring when he suddenly glances at me..
I quickly look away..but it's already too late..for he has seen me watching him..
the day passes...as at evening we are taken to learn the art of sword and spears...
I understand now...this isn't a charity..but king investing in us for future army..
I am terrible with my skills..I try but I can't do better...it's tiring and lonely here ..
I look around..in hope of glancing Manjiro..but he isn't here...
Maybe Prince doesn't practice with fosters children...
it's almost weird cause he eats with us..
That night I hardly slept..I couldn't due to the nightmares I see everytime I close my eyes...
The boy that I killed..haunts me in my dreams...it's depressing...
Getting to know him!
Continuation of last episode...
days started to pass...it's almost a week...and now I see Manjiro glances at me once in awhile..
Today he was showing off his juggling skills during lunch time.... juggling around 4 figs in hand..as he suddenly glances at me.. watching him.. throwing a fig towards me as he juggles..
Manjiro (age 12)
Catch! *as he smiles *
Y/n (age 11)
*as she catches it*
I didn't hope I would...but I catched it...the fig perfectly landing in my palms..
Next day...I get in the hall alittle later.. suprising I see him sitting next to the seat I regularly sit..at the other corner of the table..
But as always...the place is surrounded by the boys and girls....one girl taking my seat..as she energeticly speaks with Manjiro...
everyone surely needs attention from him...
I sit at different corner.. again alone as always...
That evening I didn't go for practice..I hated it...I hided myself in the dark room almost full with fermating wine jars..
I know I'll be punished later for not attending the classes..maybe whipped...but I couldn't bear to go there...I simply don't want to...I feel like dying from loneliness...
I sit there alone on the floor..my head leaning on my folded knees..as suddenly the door to the room opens.. revealing the prince...
Manjiro (age 12)
What are you doing here? Don't you have practice?
Y/n (age 11)
....I don't want to go..
Manjiro (age 12)
...they will punish you..you will be whipped..
Y/n (age 11)
I know that...*as she feels irritated from his sudden appearance*
Manjiro (age 12)
it's going to hurt..
Y/n (age 11)
*irritated as she wishes him to go away, leaving her alone*
Y/n (age 11)
Why don't you help me then?!
Manjiro (age 12)
how can I ?
Y/n (age 11)
You are the prince! tell them I was with you!
Manjiro (age 12)
I don't lie..
Y/n (age 11)
Then leave me to myself!
Y/n (age 11)
*as she again leans her head on her knees, slow tears forming in her eyes*
Manjiro (age 12)
*walks closer to her as he gently holds her hand*
Manjiro (age 12)
Come with me..
Y/n (age 11)
..What?*as she look at him with tired, teary eyes*
Manjiro (age 12)
If you are with me...it won't be a lie.. right? *as he smiles brightly*
Y/n (age 11)
*her eyes widen abit as she feels surprised*
The way he smiled at me...the sudden warmth I felt through his hand..the warmth of kindness similar to my dead mother's...
Maybe..he isn't the bad guy I think of him like ..
