My first story, I hope you like it.

Prologue/

Caspian missed her. It had been one year since he last saw the woman that he loved. He didn't want to marry another, but she was gone and she wouldn't be coming back. It was his duty to take a wife and provide an heir, so tomorrow he would marry the star's daughter. The woman his telmarine council reluctantly chose for him, a woman he didn't love. The council didn't find joy in forcing High King Caspian into a marriage with the star's daughter, for like the king and all of the people, they preferred Queen Susan the Gentle. They knew Caspian loved the gentle queen but the great lion, Aslan, said himself that she would not return to Narnia, and the king had to have an heir.

So on the eve before his wedding, Caspian sat by the tree that had taken his love back to her world, and silently grieved for the life that he could have had if his gentle queen had stayed.

"Susan, I'm sorry. Forgive me my love."

Meanwhile in England, that same gentle queen was laying in bed thinking of the king she shouldn't love. The moment Aslan told her and Peter that they would not return to Narnia, Susan realized that she had fallen in love with Caspian but would never be able to spend her life with him. So, now she smiled while went to school and spent time with her siblings but cried at night alone in her room for the king that she loved and lost.

"Susan, I'm sorry. Forgive me my love."

She knew that voice. The voice that haunted her dreams, the voice that belonged to the man she loved. She must have been hallucinating, but it sounded so real.

"Always." She whispered before she drifted to sleep.

Caspian was about to get up and go back to the castle before somebody realized he was gone when he heard a whisper in the wind.

"Always."

Sorry it was so short. The next one will be longer, this was just the prologue.
