The Forgotten Princess’S Rebellion
Chapter 6
[Seraphina’s Chambers – Late Night]
[The palace is silent, the kind of silence that weighs heavy, where secrets are easily hidden. Seraphina stands near the window, her cloak fastened securely around her shoulders. The cold wind brushes against her skin, but she barely notices.]
Seraphina Valenhardt (princess/fl)
(thinking) The guards change shifts every two hours. If I leave now, I have exactly seven minutes before the next patrol.
[She moves swiftly toward her bookshelf, fingers tracing the carved wood before pressing against a barely noticeable indentation. A soft click echoes in the still room, and the shelf shifts, revealing a narrow passage hidden behind the wall.]
Seraphina Valenhardt (princess/fl)
(thinking) A secret from a forgotten princess. How ironic.
[She slips inside, pulling the shelf back into place behind her. The tunnel is old, damp, and smells of dust and earth. No one has used it in years, maybe decades.]
[Her footsteps are soft, calculated. The darkness is suffocating, but she moves forward without hesitation. She knows the way.]
[Minutes later, she emerges outside the palace walls, stepping onto damp grass. The cold night air greets her as she pulls her hood lower and disappears into the shadows.]
[Blackthorn Alley – The City’s Underbelly]
[The streets are alive, even at this hour. Figures lurk in the alleys, cloaked in darkness, whispers of crime filling the air. The city, a stark contrast to the golden palace, is a place of filth and desperation. But Seraphina walks through it undeterred.]
Seraphina Valenhardt (princess/fl)
(thinking) No one spares a second glance at a cloaked figure in Blackthorn Alley.
[She moves with purpose, her destination clear. The abandoned manor on the outskirts—the last place Lucien D’Arcy was rumored to be seen.]
[Reaching the rusted iron gates, she stops. The air is heavy, humming with something unseen. Magic.]
Seraphina Valenhardt (princess/fl)
(muttering) He’s here.
[She pushes open the heavy wooden doors, stepping inside the ruined manor. The scent of old books and candle smoke lingers. And then—]
Lucien D’Arcy (sorcerer/ml 3)
Curious~
[A voice, smooth as silk yet laced with something far more dangerous, echoes through the empty space.]
[Seraphina’s gaze snaps forward. He leans against the staircase, silver-white hair falling over his forehead, dark blue eyes glowing unnaturally in the dim light.]
Lucien D’Arcy (sorcerer/ml 3)
(amused) A Valenhardt princess, walking straight into the lion’s den. Either you’re bold… or you’re a fool.
[Magic thickens in the air, pressing down on her, testing her.]
Seraphina Valenhardt (princess/fl)
(calmly) Or maybe I know exactly what I’m doing
[His smirk widens, but his fingers twitch slightly—power flickers at his fingertips, a silent warning.]
Lucien D’Arcy (sorcerer/ml 3)
Tell me, little princess… why should I not turn you to ash where you stand?
Seraphina Valenhardt (princess/fl)
Because you won’t
Lucien D’Arcy (sorcerer/ml 3)
And why is that? *intrigued*
Seraphina Valenhardt (princess/fl)
Because I have something you want. A mystery even you have never solved ..
[His expression shifts, the amusement giving way to something sharper, colder.]
Lucien D’Arcy (sorcerer/ml 3)
Careful, princess. You’re playing a dangerous game
Seraphina Valenhardt (princess/fl)
(steady) Then let’s make a deal
[For the first time, Lucien truly looks at her. And for the first time, Seraphina realizes—she may have just stepped into something far greater than she ever intended.]
