Hello!
I'm finally back.
First of all I apologize to my readers for my two months of MIA.
I'm officially a senior in high school which means I will have plenty of time to update for you guys.
LOL just kidding. I will have time but I also have important exams coming up for college, so it all depends on my timing.
For now I'll try to make it up to you guys by letting you read the latest chapter of my most successful story. A Fantasy world may be my first fanfic, but A Love of Light and dark supposedly has more favorites and follows. A scientific love story has more chapters and yet A love of light and dark is just as popular with only seven chapters.
Thank you for all these lovely reviews. I really love all my readers.
Hope you enjoy~
Misaki whirled around and stomped out of the room but not before saying. "The Canary will devour the Raven. I promise you that much."
Misaki left the room blinking away the tears that threatened to fall.
Takumi watched her leave with a gentle expression that was no longer fake.
Misaki buried her face into her pillow as she bit back a sob.
How could someone be oh so cruel?
Misaki heard a familiar knock on the door and chose to ignore it.
She heard the knock again but shut her eyes tightly and pretended to be asleep as she faced the moon outside.
She heard the door open and remained frozen. She could feel someone standing next to her bed.
A hand rested on her arm. At first she had thought it would be Takumi, but his hands were never gentle with her. She dared to drift her eyes open and they widened at the sight before her.
His emerald eyes pierced into hers as she shrunk back into her bed.
But his eyes weren't as cold as they always were. They were almost warm. She shook her head and turned away from him.
There's no way in hell he'll ever care for her.
She felt him sit down next to her on her bed.
"The hell are you doing?" she growled at him as she got up.
He sighed and faced out to the window towards the moonlight. Misaki blushed at how his face glew like an angels.
For a moment there was a moment of silence between the two of them. Until he spoke, "I never intended to love you." She snapped her head at him. He froze at his words and before he could reassure her she got off of her bed. "Thanks for being honest," she told him as she went out to the balcony.
Takumi pinched the bridge of his nose. "That's not what I meant," he told her. "I...never intended to make you believe I love you when I really didn't. I never had an intention of breaking your heart. As for my grandfather he truly wanted me to learn to love you. He wanted to keep his promise to your mother."
Misaki turned around. "Our kingdoms have been at war for years now. What promise would your grandfather have made to my mother?"
Takumi got up and walked towards her. "I will tell you," Misaki waited patiently. "When you learn to trust me."
She grunted. "Are you kidding me?" She stomped her foot. "There's no way in hell I'll trust you."
He smirked to himself. "Then I guess you'll never know."
Misaki clenched her hands into a fist. "Get out."
"As you wish" he told her as he shoved his hands into his pockets. But he didn't miss the sad look on her face as she leaned against the balcony.
Misaki woke up the next morning to maids surrounding her.
She jolted up in bed. Sakura and Shizuko were both present but what they wanted she didn't know.
Before she could ask anything they pulled her out of her bed and washed her and dressed her so fast that she didn't even recognize herself when she stood in front of the mirror in a beautiful sleeveless white dress that went down to her knee. It was something from Raven but Misaki still liked it.
"What is this for?" she asked. They said nothing but drag her to the gardens.
Misaki stood bewildered on her own in the middle of the grass. Why did it feel like something was going to happen?
But just then Sakura and Shizuko came back with candles and cake in their hands. Misaki gasped as they chanted "HAPPY BIRTHDAY."
"How did you know?" She asked as she blew the candles.
"His highness told us," Shizuko replied.
Misaki jerked her head back up at them and frowned. "Takumi," Sakura and Shizuko nodded in unison.
Sakura fed her a piece of cake and Shizuko did the same. They pulled out a box from behind them and coaxed Misaki to open it and she did as she was told.
Misaki nearly sobbed as she saw what was inside. Her pet cat Licht.
He snuggled up against her as soon as she saw her. Before she knew it tears began to flow down as she held the cat closer. She missed her home and wanted to go back.
Even if he had let her have a birthday she still wasn't as happy as she would be at her home.
And she knew he understood that as he watched her from behind the trees.
Thanks for reading. I know this chapter is short but I just got from vacation and am out of ideas. I'll do better for the other two stories and do better on the next update.
Read. Review. Fave. Follow.
