Prologue.

"Wahhhharghhh...ahhh" a baby's crying voice was heard around the small wooded room. A huge war had just begun in Cripstin village.

A mother was in labour, she couldn't bear the pain as she said to her husband who was sitting beside her with some other women.

"Pro..promise me, you..would taake...good..ugh..care of her" She struggled trying to fight through the pain in her body. "Noo...no please Suzan...please don't leave me ...no please" Her husband cried seeing his beloved one dying " I have...to..to go...I..it's for the ..best...I just..need to go jo..join them..up there now...but...just promise me...please take..hmmm..take care of our child" She raised her hand to cup his chin and rubbed it in a smoothing way.

"No Suzan..don't say that...don't...your gonna live for us and our child...no ..don't do this to me...what of all the dreams we would achieve one day...no you can't forget about that ...would you" He cried the more, the person he loved so much was slowly fading away.

"Richard...promise..me" Her soft hand fell from his face and that was her last breath. Richard looked at her, eyes still open, he closed her beautiful eyes with his palm as tears filled his eyes, they rolled down his eyes leaving the end of his face and landing on suzan's forehead.

                    *********************

The War between the vidialians and the barbanlians was happening, no one knew why the vidialians always planned on killing the barbanlians...there was a statement that was made amongst the vidialians and it said ' DON'T HESITATE TO KILL OUR ENEMY_ the barbanlians' .No one knew the real truth behind the conflict but it was really a strong and serious one.

Richard was a barbanlian and worked as servant in the estate of the barbanlian kingdom. Suzan was a vidialian that ran away from her kingdom...she was an important person in the kingdom of the vidialians all because she cooked the most delicious foods in the town and everyone loved her.

She ran away and didn't know where to go. She got lost in the forest and spent a night without food which made her to pass out. To her surprise, she woke up on a bed and looked around. 'someone saved me' she thought.

A man with dirty blond hair and blue sapphire eyes entered the room holding a cup of water in his hands. He looked up at her and smiled. His figures where wonderful with his muscles in the right places. He wore just a singlet which exposed part of his chest leading to his abs which slightly pierced out of the singlet, he wore the singlet with dark sweatpants ...he was ...Perfect.

Suzan looked as if she just saw gold cringing in front of her.

"Who are you" she asked looking away because it was distracting.

"Well, you don't need to be scared. I saved your life..I'm Richard" he walked closer to her and dropped the cup on the small table at the bedside. Suzan looked at herself and saw she was still wearing the same clothes, she made a sigh of relief. At least she could trust him right.

"So...can you tell me about everything, why I saw you in that dark forest" he sat on the bed beside her looking at her eyes worried. He noticed that she had autumn red hair and light brown eyes which where so beautiful. She hard dark red brows and long lashes..her skin was as white as snow knowing pretty well she wasn't an ordinary person.

"Hey...i'm Suzan" she tucked the hair that fell on her face behind her ear. "To be honest, you wouldn't like what I would tell you cause you'll be afraid of me..you wanna hear it or not" she said looking at him.

" Don't tell me...your.." Richard held his breath and stood up immediately away from her " A Vidialian" fear was printed on his handsome face. Suzan turned to her side in disappointment "Yes...I am...I sensed that you're a barbanlian because I ran to the barbanlian forest" Richard couldn't believe that he had saved a vidialian. He felt so stupid at the moment and thought about it.

"Are you gonna...kill...me" he asked in the most pleading way ever. He was was already scared, terrified, Suzan saw a gulp go down his Adam's apple.

"Actually, No, i'm not gonna kill you"she said removing the bedspread that covered her body, letting her feet touch the wooden floor. She collected the cup of water and took a sip to wet her dry throat.

"How could I even trust a vidialian, you people are cruel..so cruel I can't even imagine". He agreed with himself "Look, it's not all vidialians that are cruel you know...I'm not one of them. Infact, I'm one of the nicest...how could I even kill you when you saved my life from those demons" Suzan said dropping the cup on the table.

"Could I trust you" Richard looked at her. He wanted to trust her. A strong feeling filled his eyes. She stood up and made her way to him cupping her palms on his face. He relaxed into the touch.

"You can trust me anytime, cause from the way I'm seeing it, your a good man who doesn't wanna harm anyone...so I do trust you...will you do the same?"

He thought about what she said. She didn't seem like a bad woman. 'Could I trust her?' he held her hand up to his chin and pressed against his skin "Yes...I trust you, please don't betray me" He pleaded.

"I promise" she said.
