Here we are not in the world as it actually is today! In this world three big and wealthy families rule the five continents: The Black, The Johnson and The Henderson. When you are around a member of these families you should even beware of how you actually are breathing because believe they could ruin your life if they want. Especially the Black family. It is the most powerful family of the three families listed above; these two families have even to respect the Black. Especially When the King George black died because believe me his son is coming right from hell say some people to take his father's place. He did when he was 18 years old the year his father died. This so called son was only a young 20 years old man now. Now since we are talking about him lets present you his family. We already talked about his Dad the King George Black that Passed away two years ago. His mom The Queen Katerina Black Passed away Like six years ago already. The rumor says that his mother had been killed by his father and that the king lived in the remorse ever after her death and his sadness took his life away from him. This Son has a sister two, the Princess Daniella Black. Some say it is the nicest girl you will ever meet but she is somehow quiet. Oh but I forgot do you know what the name of this young man is? Well I will tell you. His name is: Duncan Henry Black.
Here our story starts with Duncan the young 20 years old Prince. One day his father's best friend Vincent Johnson who is also his best friend's father came to his castell to talk to him saying it was important. Duncan liked to be called "your majesty" he just liked how it sounds.
"Your majesty, I need your help please." Vincent said sadly looking at the not so interesting ground.
"You only can call me sir because you are just kind of family to me." He said emotionless. "And what do you need?"
"My wife is pregnant but she is terribly sick and we can't give her any medicine because of her pregnancy we need a special herb to cure her sir"
"And?" Duncan said.
"And we just couldn't find this herb anywhere except in your territories so I am here to ask you for some please, I beg you and I will give you anything in return." He finished as Duncan chuckled a bit.
"Do you really think I want anything from you? I own everything on this earth!"
Vincent didn't answer.
"Fine I will give you this herb" Duncan said as Lord Vincent thanked him much.
"But you said you would give me "anything" in return right?" Vincent nodded.
"Anything is anything?" Vincent nodded again but this time a bit frightened.
"I just decided what I want" He said playfully.
"What is it sir, Say it and I will bring it to you."
"Since I am bored in this big castle barely alone all day I decided I want to own your daughter. When she will be 18 years old the evening of her birthday, bring her in front of my castle and leave her here okay? But if you don't keep your promise I will kill you and all your family the next day"
"But sir…"
He cut him "Do you still want the herb?"
"Fine I will do as you say sir" Vincent said in defeat and a deep sadness wrapping his heart.
"Bring to this man what he is asking for" Duncan said loudly as one servitor came and took care of Vincent.
We talked a lot about this Vincent man didn't we? Well let's talk about his family then.
He is married to a beautiful green eyed and brown haired woman whom he dearly loves. He's got three children: The oldest, a 20 years old man, Duncan's childhood and all-time best friend. Lord Williams Johnson was really a serious but lovable gentleman. Some even ask how he became Duncan's friend as they were totally opposites. The middle child, or the family's lady if you want. Her name was Courtney Rose Johnson. She was 14 years old. She was known to be a stubborn girl but everyone knew that deep down she had a big heart. The smallest is still in his mother's womb but everyone expects it to be a boy.
#4 YEARS LATER
In Two days it was Courtney's Birthday She was turning 18. She was anxious because she knew about what happened when her mom was pregnant with her dearly loved younger brother James. And she knew that the king's nickname was the monster. And worst of all was that in two days this person was going to own her! What if he was a pervert she said to herself? All she knew about him was from her older brother Williams that now was 24 years old. She knew the king was as old as her brother and that after Williams knew about what happened between him and his father he didn't talk to him anymore. All she knew is that Williams told her that his name was Duncan and that she should talk to him with respect and that everything was going to be okay if she doesn't rage him. That is not going to be easy but at least she will try to manage her temper, she thought. The idea of being owned by a person like any other ceiling was raging her every single day. The problem was that she was a freedom lover and the most independent person you could ever find.
No sleep came to Courtney's eyes. All night she just couldn't stop thinking. This Duncan guy was just obsessing her!
#2 DAYS LATER
Courtney's POV
Birthday morning! The moment of truth! I was so anxious I couldn't eat anymore! But I decided that I didn't want to sit alone crying all day waiting for tonight No! Instead I decided to have fun today! All I mean is that I am going to live it as if it was the last day of my life doing everything I want and feel like it because seriously who knows if I will even want to live tomorrow morning?!
I put a fake smile on my face as I walk downstairs of my castle to see my mother sitting in the living room with my dad totally depressed! I just kissed them both and hugged them as if it was the last time as it actually may be and told them not to worry and that everything was going to be okay. Even though I didn't know myself if it was going to be alright! Then I saw my small brother whom I taught to walk running towards me with open arms and a smile on his face screaming my name! I smile deeply as I see him and pick him up cuddling and tickling him as he laughs and says to me some happy birthday wishes and that he was happy that he was going to eat some cake. I just laughed. I love this young man so much and I can't imagine my life without him! That was going to be hard! I put James down as I see my old brother come towards me he says "happy birthday" sadly as I hug him tight. I loved both my brothers so much.
Then James asked me to play in the garden with him so we spend most of the day playing there and chasing butterflies. When I was tired I just went to finish my favorite book and then I spent some time with Williams. But the night was coming and my heart was sinking and slowly dismissing my happiness to replace it with the sadness I was hiding.
When the evening came I just put James to bed as usual. Yes I know why me? We got servitors to do it but it was because he asked me to as I read him a beautiful story every night! I put him to bed and said:
"Tonight I am going to tell you a story, I am not going to read you a book okay?" he simply nodded in response.
I took a deep breath then begin: "Ages ago from now there was a 4 years old prince and he was happy. He had an older sister that loved him dearly. And he loved her too." I stopped a bit trying not to cry and hopefully he didn't notice. "One day the small prince's sister had to go away for the safety of her younger brother and her whole family so she kissed the boy and promised him to comeback someday but that didn't mean she didn't love him if she was faraway"
Suddenly I have been interrupted by him: "Why are you sad Courtney?"
"It's nothing sweetie now sleep and promise me you will be nice to mom, dad and Williams and always be a good boy okay?"
He nodded as I kissed his forehead and hugged him for the last time then turned off the lights and exited his room letting him sleep.
As soon as I closed James's door Williams hugged me tightly as I bit my lower lip stopping myself from crying. I had to be strong for them. I hugged him back as I felt him cry and that was a first because Williams never cried. He was strong. I told him not to worry and whipped his tears as he promised me to try to see me as much as he can because Duncan was his friend. I nodded and kissed his cheek faking a smile as I go take a shower and wear my long pink satin dress and put a belt on it because it was a bit baggy and it showed my right shoulder. I then put some perfume on and left my hair wavy as it normally was and put it on my left shoulder. I looked simple but good. Then I prepare a small bag putting in it the things I was attached to so I can survive the distance between my family and me and some clothes then I went downstairs and hugged my crying mom telling her she should not blame herself for what was happening and that it was alright and I did the same with my dad and then I went in the limousine we got and my father sat near me as I waved a goodbye to my mother and brother. 'I hope I will see them again' I said to myself as the car drove me away of my house and my heart was sinking more at each mile. That was definitely going to be hard!
