Surprise you guys, the rest of the chapter is ready already. So here you go. :-)
I do not own Descendants or the characters in it.
Ben's point of view
I wake up feeling like something is missing. I look around and see that I am in my room, what is going on and where is Mal? I sit up remembering what happened; she tried to spell me to forget about her and our baby. I can feel the anger burning in me; I get up and walk to my office. As I am about to go in I hear someone calling my name. I turn and see mom walking towards me
"Ben when did you wake up?" she touches my cheek. I lean into her touch and close my eyes
"Not too long ago" I feel my eyes getting wet; I open my eyes and look at mom "Why did she have to leave mom; why will she not let me be in our child's life?" I let my tears fall. I feel my mom's arms around me and she holds me close to her
"Oh Ben" She takes me into my office and we sit down on the couch "How can you remember that she was here and that she is pregnant; she spelled you to forget about it"
"I do not know mom, but I feel like she betrayed me. She knew I hated that dad and Fairy Godmother was doing it to me and then she does it herself" I feel my body shaking
"Ben you need to relax, please" I feel her hands on both sides of my face, but the anger in me keeps going
"She thinks that she can just take my child from me like that?" I get up and walk to the window "She thinks that she has the right. I could easily send her back to the Isle of the Lost for this betrayal" I hear her gasp
"Ben you do not mean that" I hear her walking up behind me and feel her hand on my shoulder; I shake her hand of my shoulder and walk to the desk.
"She has made her decision and now its time I make mine" I pull out the chair and sits down "I declare war against the Moors"
"BEN!" I look at my mom and smiles a little
"You either support me or not mother" She looks out the window. I have a feeling I already know the answer and I hope I am wrong.
"What happens if I do not support you" She looks at me, I raise my shoulders
"Dad once mentioned that we have this nice room in one of the towers" I try to hide my smile knowing that I have given her only one option. She gasps and starts backing off towards the door. "Not so fast mother" I get up and walk to her, I grab her arm.
"You cannot ask me to choose between my son and my daughter" I notice tears in her eyes "and you cannot place me in the tower again. You do not even know what it means to be captured somewhere; not being able to do anything" Her tears fall and she looks at the ground.
"No, you are right" She looks at me; I hug her "I am so sorry mom, I just want her back. I do not know what is going on with me" She puts her arms around me
"It is your dad's curse that is playing a trick on your mind. The beast in you wants out because he feels betrayed." She looks up at me "What if I took you to the Moors to try and talk to her before you officially declare war?" I look down at her.
"Can you do that?" she nods.
"We can go in the morning, it takes a few hours by car to get there but it is possible. I should be able to still get in; I do not know if you can but then I will find Mal and make her talk to you" I nod and walk to the couch; I sit down and put my face in my hands
"I am sorry about what I said mom" she walks to me and kisses my hair
"It is okay sweetie" she sits next to me "I just do not understand why her spell did not work, she has gotten so much stronger; it does not make sense" I look up from my hands and look at her.
"How did I get back to my room?"
"Jay and your dad carried you. I tugged you in, like when you were a child" That is when I realize why the spell did not work
"You kissed my forehead like when I was a child?" She looks at me and nods.
"Of course I did"
"That is why the spell did not work" I turn to her "Mom, a mothers kiss is always a true love kiss. You broke the spell." I see her surprise.
"Oh, well… I guess you are right" she looks at her hands "I never thought of that" She stands up "Let's get to bed so we are ready for the long drive tomorrow" She holds her hand out; I take it and she helps me stand. We leave the office and walk towards the bedrooms. She stops at one of the guestrooms "Well, goodnight sweetie" she hugs me and kisses my cheek "Be ready at 8 am tomorrow" I nod and kiss her cheek then walk to my own room. I lay down in bed and immediately fall asleep.
