Yaaayyy! I'm a bit on a roll today guys because I have some writer juice in me and I already thought up a lot off chapters soon to come! Both here in my main account and in our Wattpad Group Account: RandomPepsInInternet Please read our story there guys! Well... if you want to.
I gazed out the barred window of my cell. It has been months since I've been imprisoned because of the sins my brother and I made. I'm surprised that the prince hasn't married the girl he has betroathed. Probably because he really hates his father.
Is he the same man who aided us when we tried to run and fight the palace guards? Those gleaming peridot behind a simple mask out of a cloth. Those eyes that can make the most beautiful jade be ashamed. Which resembled the prince. But I can see the prince has such handsome features. Those golden hair that was messy but at the same time elegant. Emerald eyes that shone under those bushy eyebrows-
Stop
I scolded myself. I have to remember my place and how much I loathe his family. I bit my lips as I remember how we fell into poverty because of the King's orders. How much we were desperate that we chose the criminal's path to survive. We chose the illegal way. And it all lead to this. I closed my eyes and the two most tragic scenes kept replaying in my mind. I longed to embrace the arms of death. I want my suffering to end. I want to see my family up in the heavens. If there was some miracle that would happen today I wish it would come soon. I heard the familiar metal clang of the cell's doors
"Looks like it's time for you to meet your family." The guard sneered. Two more men went inside my prison and tied my hands behind my back and half carried, half dragged me to who knows where.
I gazed at the stone tower's window and saw a single noose out side. Hundreds of people witnessing it. I mentally smiled as soon as I saw that figured. Death has finally answered my prayers. I will no longer suffer from this hell they call this place. I would soon meet Antonio, Mama and Maria. If possible my real family.
When I have arrived. In front of me is the Kirkland. All of the there.
King William Kirkland, Queen Brianne Kirkland. Their Eldest Son: Arthur Kirkland. The twins: Alfred and Amelia Kirkland*. All there to witness my execution.
"We are here today. To witness an execution, to exterminate another vermin in our beloved country.
A Young Man: (M/N) Carriedo. Charged of the act of Robbery and Treason..." That last word struck me. That act was a lie! I never betray my country. I never tried treason! I only stole goods. I wracked my brain and finally remembering: The all where Eliza and I went to. Did they really think I tried to poison some of their food? Well, it was too late. I am going to be hanged whether I am against it or not.
They put the noose around me. After the introduction I looked down on my feet and I squeezed my eyes shut then-
"Wait!" I voice cried out. I looked up to see the heir, standing up from his seat stopping my execution. "I have a better idea than this act!"
"And what would it be?" The captain of the guards asked crossing his arms, half disappointed because the blonde stopped, what the man wanted to see.
"I want to make him my squire-"
"Don't be foolish boy! How can you even be sure that he can be worthy of that rank! He's just a mere street rat!"
"I once visited the facility when I almost got bored to death in the palace. I caught a glimpse of him, defending himself from the other prisoners who almost beat him up. Despite his small stature, I can see he can be useful."
"How can you be sure that he won't try to kill you once you get comfortable with him?"
"If I catch hi he won't have second chances. I'll make sure to have his head on a silver platter." Thus the deed was done. They took off the rope from my neck and cut up the bonds on my hands. The royal family stood up from their chairs. And most of the villagers were disappointed because they won't see any corpse hanging on the noose.
I don't know if I should be relieved because I could still keep my life or I should I be disappointed because, I won't see my beloved family today.
The authorities shoved me roughly to the Prince's feet. the guards snickered and left us be. I simply looked down n the hard ground and saw a hand in front of me. I looked and my (e/c) eyes met his prominent emerald ones.
I gingerly took his hand and helped myself up.
"Th-thanks..." I said in my low voice.
"Don't mention it." he smiled. It was a genuine and soft. I was a bit surprised that a royal like him, could actually have a softer heart. I thought he was only just forced
"It's (M/N), isn't it?" He asked
"Y-yes, sir..."
"Oh, no need for the honorific, young lad. You can call me Arthur." He said. Surprising me because he put his arm on my shoulder, not minding my smell and how filthy I am. "From now on, treat me as your friend. Brothers."
Those last few words. I've never felt the weight of my old past lift off my shoulders. Instead it exchanged by his own arms weight.
Hooray for regular updates! But school would start soon for me! Luckily I choose the update day to be weekends so... I'll try my best!
