DALASTIA WORLD,
All the fairies,high fairies, teenagers, common citizens all were gathered around in front of the magnificent white castle. They all seed death worried and utterly panicked. On the contrary, Ester stood at a corner putting on a saddened face as if his family had been death.
He made his appearance so pitiful and worried that people started getting worried for him. They whispered among each others and felt sympathy for Ester who seed so depressed after hearing out the news.
All the people kept their eyes locked on the pathway of the castle and seed to wait for a person. Soon after a middle aged woman wearing a plain, simple gown rushed outside hastily ignoring her own status.
Her face was deathly pale and one could notice just by looking at her eyes that it was swallowed as if she had cried hard. Watching the wave of people, she adjusted her mood slowly and spoke towards the crowd,
" Thank you everyone for your concern and love for the second Prince. Our troops had been searching for him throughout our entire world and nearby places."
Queen linda choked struggling hard to hold back her tears and continued lowering her voice a little,
" Let's pray and hope that he will be found out soon. "
After the group of boys ca out finishing their tasks, they couldn't find Ethan's whereabouts. They all searched through the nearby places but didn't find a trace of him. Without seeing any bit of hope, they inford about his sudden disappearance in the castle. Soon after this news had spreaded out all over the capital and the clan mbers of fairy had rushed over there to hear the truth.
On the contrary, Queen linda almost fell sick after the brutal news of Ethan. She had already lost two children of her. She couldn't bear to loose Ethan or else only death would be her last destination.
Evan Chole, the youngest Prince was consoling her mother standing by her side. His face was tensed up as he recalled the mysterious murder of his elder brother that broke their whole family just like a sudden wave.
One of the ministers seed like an old aged man received a aningful gesture from Ester. The minister imdiately understood his hint thus cleared his throat to get an attention from Queen.
He sighed purposely before stating his concern to Queen linda,
" My Queen, you need to be strong now. We already don't have our king over our heads. Moreover if you can't get over it, the future king will feel more burdened over the state's matters. Well, I have a quick suggestion to console the crowd fast."
Queen linda shifted her gaze on him confusedly silently gesturing him to spit it out. The minister seed bit hesitance still dared to speak out boldly,
" If we can't find out Prince Ethan by tomorrow, we can hold the coronation ceremony the day after tomorrow. In that way, the crowd won't panic and spread out more rumours."
Evan's face turned cold and stiff before staring at his wrinkled face angrily. Even though everyone considered him as a childish person around the state but still he was sensible enough to acknowledge Ester's scheming. Only his mother trusted Ester blindly.
Evan wanted to protest the decision at once but Queen linda nodded with understanding giving it a second thought. Her heart was still in pain because of Ethan as she commanded her minister absentmindedly,
" Your words make sense, minister. You can announce the news to the crowd in advance. They have already started gathering up. Sothing unexpected can be happen anyti or else our enemies can seize this opportunity wisely."
The minister bead happily before giving a positive signal to Ester who seed excited after receiving the news. His face started turning normal but he forced himself to keep up a pitiful appearance.
As the minister cleared his throat loudly to get the attention of the crowd and spoke loudly,
" ATTENTION EVERYONE! I have a piece of news to share with you all."
The crowd turned silent imdiately as the old man ordered in his raspy voice. They all seed curious about the announcent and focused on him.
As the minister parted his lips to speak out,
" After judging everything, we have decided.. "
" What announcent right now?", a cold and familiar voice ca down from the sky as the crowd gasped in astonishnt loudly looking up.
Everyone was stunned for a mont and saw the missing person landing down on the ground spreading out his white magical wings.
Ethan's expression was cold and stiff as if he had encountered sothing terrible. He walked towards Queen linda briskly before speaking with curiosity,
" What's going on here at this hour?"
Evan replied first still holding his mother's arms,
" Brother.. you.. you are safe..you are alive.."
Ethan's face turned awestruck as he glanced at her mother aningfully. Queen linda instantly broke out into tears as she hugged Ethan sobbing hardly and mumbled,
" Son.. Son.. you.. you are safe.. I.. I thought I lost you like your brother.. Where did u go without telling any of us? We had been looking for you."
On the other hand, the crowd cheered happily after finding Ethan safe and sound. They didn't pay attention to the earlier announcent anymore and saw the overwheld scenario in front of them. Evan also joined them in bear hug and felt relaxed after caging his brother.
Only one person stayed at a far distance in an astounded state and baffled expression. His face darkened more quickly than sumr clouds and left with bewildered. Ester couldn't believe his own vision that Ethan was secure and safe standing in front of him.
His all dreams had shattered into pieces as he clenched his teeth tightly. For the sake of his own image, he couldn't dare to vent out his anger and frustration in front of the crowd. The minister also retreated himself from there wisely in fear of being an eye-sore to their future king, Ethan.
The ministers, high fairies and all the other citizens knew that Ethan had the most powers, abilities and capability to beco their king.He had also cultivated supre powers at an early age that could describe his worth undoubtedly. Moreover he was the biological child of Queen linda.
Thousand years ago, one day a female woman suddenly appeared in the castle claiming that she was bearing the child of their King referring to the father of Ethan. She stated that she had a one night stand with the king and the unborn child was the consequence of their intimate act.
Queen linda was heartbroken after hearing that her husband had cheated on her even they had child together. Later the King also accepted the undeniable truth and admitted his wrongdoings solemnly. But he was still doubted on the fact that the child in her womb had really belonged to him.
Queen Mother once again chose the side of justice and ordered his husband to marry the woman instantly. After marrying Ester's biological mother, King felt extrely guilty especially when his children had started distancing themselves from him. In pain and agony, one day he left the castle at midnight without uttering a word and never ca back. They searched for the king all over the world but he vanished like air and never found out.
Soon after Ester's birth, his mother had died just after his born and he was later raised by Queen linda solemnly. But Queen linda perhaps never imagined that her motherly love had no place in Ester's heart. Thus today he had beco their backstabber and sworn enemy.
Ester finally regained his calm composure and walked over the family of trio slowly. Forcing on a relived smile, Ester spoke intending to give Ethan a hug,
" Brother, you are really back. We had been death worried for you."
Ethan left their embrace before eting his eyes with a cold glare. He spoke laughing mysteriously,
" I told you that I will take back everything that belong to only."
Ester's face sank quickly as the two brothers gazed at each others eyes deeply.
Another blissful morning fell down in both worlds welcoming another new day.
VAMPIRE WORLD,
OLD CASTLE,
Despite the smiling sun was ravishing it's heat on the floor as usually, the girl on the open window side seed dull. Her gaze placing on the empty street away from her living castle was vacant and wordless as if she buried all her unspoken words deep inside her cold heart.
Just like another day, a familiar carriage made its appearance on the entrance along with a familiar silhouette. Athena smiled bitterly watching her mother rushing inside hastily.
Even before she heard her words, she knew her purpose of arriving in her castle early in the morning. Athena exhaled an exhausted sigh before staying firm and determined over her decision inwardly.
She leaned her head against the edge of the wall and fell in dilemma. The door was burst open with a thud and a woman's enlarged voice echoed in the room,
" Athena, what happened to the guards yesterday? They all couldn't see their visions for a long ti. Did you play any trick over them? I never heard that you have the power of blinding vampires."
Athena didn't provide her a single answer. Instead she replied gulping down her bitter saliva one last ti,
" Mother, I'm willing to marry Zave. You can arrange our marriage soon."
