*~ Heh... Let's go~*
Harmony woke to the sounds of birds and water.
"I hate mornings."
Getting out of bed took effort because she had to untangle herself from Valyn, which woke him up.
"Well I'm glad that you still love me."
Grumbling she walked over to her enormous wardrobe to have a look at what she would wear today. Opening the doors she found the closet filled with sapphire blue and black gowns that flowed to the floor and had sleeves that nearly reached the ground too. Upon pulling a few out she noticed that all of the gowns had a golden dragon located some where. She pulled a black one out that had dragons resting at the bottom hem of the gown and walked toward the bathroom.
"You have twenty minutes to join me Prince."
Daemonar held what had been given to him at Harmony's birthright ceremony. Today it would be given to her in honor of her offering to the darkness. Her consort ring held a beauty that he could not describe. The jewel in the center was made of the purest diamond. The two jewels that flanked the diamond were the most beautiful sapphire jewels he had ever seen. It was almost so bright he couldn't look straight at it. Almost. He sat at the dinning hall alone. He had been staring at the ring since before dawn. If he gave up this ring it meant that he would have to give up his job as her protector. She would form a court around herself and leave him in the cold. The court would take on the role of the loving older brother that he had always played that he had always loved. He didn't want to lose his little sister.
Daemon woke to a wonderful sound. Jaenelle singing. Not as wonderful as mother and daughter singing mind you when they sang together tears would come to his eyes. Jaenelle's high alto voice could be heard from the garden outside their room. Getting up he put on pants and walked out the double glass doors to find his wife. Aimlessly walking the garden paths following her voice he noticed the flowers were dying. Daemon found Jaenelle in a barren spot next to one of the many fountains. The fountains she stood next to showed a mother shielding her daughter from certain death as the daughter reached for a jewel on a throne. Looking to Jaenelle Daemon was surprised to see tears streaming down her face. A memory flooded his mind.
If you sing to them correctly, they'll tell you the names of the ones who are gone.
The night Rose died. The night she sang to the witch blood. He then noticed then the dirt under Jaenelle's fingernails and the small little flowers behind the statue.
"Who died Jaenelle?"
The singing stopped and she turned to him with tears still streaming down her face.
"I did Daemon."
"What do you mean?"
"The Queen of the Darkness must fall in order for the next Queen to surface and take her place, my time is done. The court has been notified that their Queen is dead. They will be here in order to bow to the new Queen."
"But what does this mean, I still don't understand why?"
"I don't have the strength to protect my people any more. This threat is too big for me to face as the Queen. They need someone stronger. They need our daughter to lead them."
*~ Well don't you want to know what's going to happen now. I bet you do. Well you're lucky today because my muse has been sent to me and you will not have to wait so long on the next chapter. ~*
