Author's Note: I really couldn't wait to subject this story at all. So, in case you were wondering: I guess I will update this story along with those that I am currently working on, of course much to your amazement!
This is the 5th story updated thus far.
So, let's begin, shall we?
Snowy Jades
Karney Hogan, a son of Jack Atlas and Crow Hogan. Long summary short: this is basically his life. He was forced to marry Princess Jade Longhorn, and in which case had 2 children with her and he didn't even want to. Not only was he forced to but now he has to stay because of his daughters. Karney has the strength to get what he wants, but even he has limits. Christy Snow, a friend and childhood sweetheart to Karney. She loves Karney and is depressed over the idea of him being forced into marriage and having 2 children. What will come out of this?
Prologue-
(Not the beginning chapter, but one that will appear later on)
Darkness encased the sky at an alarming rate. A woman with bright rosy pink robes walked silently through the silent halls of the white palace.
A hood covered her face, hiding her facial features to anyone wary enough to look upon her.
She breathed deeply, satisfaction in her breath and her steps with a limp to it.
"Princess Jade, where are you?" A voice called out.
The woman turned in wide alarm, and then bolted through the halls into a hidden corridor. She stopped, leaning her back to the cold column behind her. A guard walked past unknowing she was there.
Now exhausted and tired, Princess Jade slumped down to the floor and breathed deeply. The morning rays of sunlight shone through the hall into the corridor, shining on her face for a brief moment. Her green eyes darted back and forth, searching for a chance to escape.
Her tan skin shone against the rays of the sun. She took a deep breath. She opened a brown patchwork bag and took a pinch of a purple powder. "Do Mo Sheomra (-To my room!)" In a green flash, she disappeared, leaving green dust like things that fell like snow.
Reappearing in her room, she laid in her bed. The pink covers and the mattress of the bed itself was crushed from her weight, she sighed heavenly. Her green eyes looked above her; the dark pink with gold lacing canopy was hanging above her. Only time will tell how long she will have to wait. But, hell with it, she thought. Why not make it come sooner.
She stood up, walked over to a chest, and opened it. The chest itself was lined with golden engravings of rituals and spells. It was brown all the same except those golden engravings.
She brought out a purple jar with silver engravings, forming a lace around the said jar. It was round on the bottom and it became thinner at the top. What capped it was a silver spike. Jade removed it. She sprinkled it and it came out red. Saying a few words, it turned bright pink and was lighting the dim lighted room.
She spoke, a new, stronger voice taking place, "Go bhfuilleanbhalorgagam, tá leanbh cad ba mhaith liom. Taramach ar anleanbhi mobhroinn, agusan solasa lorgníos luaithená níos déanaí! (-A child is what I seek, a child is what I want. Come forth the child in my womb, and seek the light earlier than later!)"
She sprinkled the powder onto herself. Her belly bulged. She placed the jar back, with the sliver spike on it, and closed the chest. "Faoi ghlas (-Lock)." She said. The chest was wrapped in a golden, metal chain.
A knock came at her door. "Princess Jade, may I have a word with you?" A handsome voice asked.
She smiled a flawless smile. She looked down at her belly with pride in her eyes, that held a hint of a devious gleam within their depths and her smile turned vicious.
"Come in my husband and father to the child in my womb and the daughter that is so rightfully ours as well." She called out in a silky voice. Placing a strand of loose brown hair behind her ear.
On the other side of the wooden door a man cursed.
He had short and spiky violet rose hair, his eyes being a rosy violet. He flinched at the mention of another child being in that accursed woman's womb. The woman doesn't even deserve a child. If it wasn't his he would have killed both, mother and child. But that wasn't his nature. He is Karney Hogan for Chaos' sake. He will not create a sin that powerful. He sighed loudly.
"Is everything alright father?" A child's voice spoke beside him. Alarmed, Karney looked that way to see his daughter: Elizabeth, looking at her father with such concern he bent down to her level and looked directly into her eyes.
Her eyes mimicked her mother's, but her eyes shone with care, curiosity, and carefree. Her mother's were wretched, wicked, and worthless. I sighed agitated.
"Nothing Elizabeth. I- well, you're going to have another sibling, in what I'm guessing in a few damn hours." He wasn't stupid; he knows somehow that she would do something to make the baby grow faster, and it was only a few hours away now. Dammit, he thought. This is the second damn time she's taken advantage of me. Dammit all to the 35 pits of Hell. This woman will be the end of him.
He wants to go home, back to his friends, family, and to see Christy again. Gods, this woman will kill him if he tries anything rash like that; maybe even make him have intercourse with her to have another child with her. He gagged at the thought. Having kids is fine; it's just that the wife he has that is his partner is a demanding and rash woman. The opposite of Christy. He got a letter from his pocket.
"Give this letter to a messenger. Christy Snow in the Satellite, got it?"
"Yes father." She gripped the letter in her hand. She had blonde hair; thankfully his father's genes are very dominant within 2nd generation children. She ran down the corridor.
Yes, he was forced into this damn marriage because of her trickery. Her father is scared of the Enforcers attacking him for more land or resources. Pathetic mortal. And that he forced him, Karney Hogan, to work for him, and to make it worse so he couldn't leave, he was married to Jade Longhorn, the heir to the throne unless a son is born.
He was so far away from the Satellite. He would rather perish in Neo Domino a free man, protecting his fathers' and uncles' lands and heads. He sighed. Yes, that would be better than a forced marriage and being taken advantage of every time she gets the damn chance.
The only things he gets that are from home are letters and a few gifts. His fathers' are pissed, and his uncles' are no exception. But they can't do anything to harm this… family he has now, unless he actually likes them. The only friend is his right hand: Jeremy Ukraine. A native born from Germany with extreme intelligence and power. His family abandoned him during their visit in Neo Domino when he was five. Luckily he became a friend of the Enforcers for the things he's been through. He was physically fit as well, knowing many martial arts. He was raised by Uncle Yusei and his own father; Jack Atlas! Blonde hair, blue eyed, strong, fit, powerful. Thank his heritage that he was there with him.
The letters he gets are from most of his family members, but he really paid attention to some of them, though that is sort of harsh, seeing that he has no other contact with them.
"Hello, you there big boy?" Her silky sweet voice came from the other side of the door.
He mentally gagged. He placed a straight face on and opened the door. "I am here milady."
-Satellite
Damn her to hell!
