Chapter Three
Kira's POV
"Lieutenant
Kira Sakuya!"
"Yes,
Lord Sevothtarte?"
"Go
into the kitchen and check to see if my dinner has been prepared."
"Yes,
my lord."
It's kinda strange how I have become Lord Sevothtarte's personal servant now. I was drafted into his military about a year ago, but now I'm more of a butler. I didn't even get to finish high school, but that's ok. School sucked anyway, although I do miss getting plastered on Saturday nights with Setsuna and Kato. But, God, I hope Sevothtarte doesn't just want to keep a closer eye on me cause of her. Somehow, he always knows. He always goes on behind closed doors.
The HER that I was referring to earlier is Alexiel. We've been secretly dating for about three years now. The problem is that Lord Sevothtarte's government forces all women to marry at the age of eighteen, and Sevothtarte was looking for a bride. (Note to readers: Sevi is NOT Layla in my fic- he is male). With the way things are set up, the chicks answer questions about themselves and the males get to choose which one they want. So, Sevothtarte chose Alexiel to be his bride and there's not a damn thing anyone can do to stop it. The wedding is in three weeks, and I have no choice but to watch the love of my life become a sex slave to that...that maniac. Alexiel, God I love her. She wants to die now. Our plan was for me to be the one to choose her but HE got there first.
At last, it's five. Thank God, if there is such a being. Now, where are my cigarettes? Oh, yeah, I left them under my bed. Yup, there they be. Alexiel always wanted me to quit. Yeah, I love her to death, but there's just some things you don't take away from a man. Yeah, this town has gone to hell thanks to our dear ole dictator. Even his name makes me smirk. I mean, hell, who in this God-forsaken world would name their kid Sevothtarte. Hmm, must be some kinda nickname or something.
Anyway, I think I'll go and see Alexiel now. We're spending as much time as we can together before the wedding. Afterwards, she'll have to live at the palace, and I'll have to think up some new ways to see her.
I keep dreaming of her at her wedding. White always was her color. It means purity. Yeah, the purity that will be taken away in a few weeks. Sevothtarte only wants a woman around for his own personal pleasure in his bedroom. He screwed himself and Alexiel by passing the law that made premarital sex illegal. Because of this, he had to choose one girl, and Alexiel is cursed forever.
There's nothing I can do. It's just now sinking in. Nothing. Nothing at all. Oh my God. Why? Someone tell me. Please.
