Last time on Cursed Love
Ray gently placed Crystal on the bed. He brushed some of her hair away from her face. She rolled over and snuggled into Ray. Ray who was also tired and he didn't want to disturb Crystal laid down on the bed, wrapped his arms protectively around Crystal's waist and fell asleep.
Now
Krystal woke up to the sun shinning in her face. She felt an extra weight around her middle. Remembering what happened last night between her and Brooklyn she roared. Ray jumped.
"Shh. It's alright Krystal. You're safe with me," said Ray, calming the lioness. She nuzzled into his chest and purred.
The week passed quickly. Crystal laid awake in bed. She had a weird feeling. Something was going on at the castle and she didn't like it. She woke Ray up and told him that she was going back.
"Not without me," Ray said stubbornly.
"Fine, let's go," she said. They got outside and Crystal called for Sultan. They rode back to the castle in silence. They had left Hilary, Alex and Rahja behind.
Crystal jumped off Sultan and ran through the castle. She could sense someone was in danger. What she didn't realise was that she was the one in danger. She ran to the throne room and found her father and Brooklyn facing against Tyson. Max, the phoenix: Kai, Tala and the dragon: Celestin. Brooklyn had a black eye and bruises all over him. The king clapped his hands and 2 guards grabbed hold of Crystal and injected her with a serum that temporarily paralyses the body. The king grabbed his sword and walked up to Crystal.
"If you will not accept Brooklyn as your future king then you will die," said the king.
"Then I shall accept death over Brooklyn any day," she said stubbornly. The king raised the sword over his head and brought it down. Crystal closed her eyes and waited for the metal to slice through her body, but it never came. She opened her eyes to find Celestin had stepped in between her and the king. He had sacrificed his life in order to save Crystal. The paralysing serum wore off. She crawled over to her cousin. He was changing back into him human self. Blood littered the floor.
"Celestin," sobbed Crystal as she placed Celestin's head in her lap and stroked his white hair. Her body shook as the tears fell freely from her eyes, down her cheeks and onto Celestin's face.
"Kill your father for me," coughed Celestin, "Remember me, my angel." With that Celestin's body went limp.
"No, Celestin," Crystal yelled. She looked up at her father.
"You fucking bastard. Mark my words I will kill you even if it's the last thing I do, you will die." Ray placed a hand on her shoulder. She gently placed Celestin's head on the floor. She stood up, turned and cried into Ray's chest.
"It should have been me," came her muffled voice.
"Shh. It's alright," said Ray.
"He done it because he loved you," said Tala.
"Don't you see, it's my fault? If I hadn't of come back then Celestin wouldn't be dead," she yelled at Tala, before more tears cascaded down her cheeks. Ray wiped her tears away with his thumb. Crystal's father and Brooklyn had disappeared. She grabbed Ray's hand and led him out of the throne room and up to her bedroom.
