Hey the sequel dear readers! Let's not waste any time and get to it ;)
Ancien Egypt, springtime, Wednesday,
Elena didn't understand what got into Damon after he arrived. She was completely lost. At first, she remembered that he told her, in some way that he loved her.. Or did she dreamed that too? Her night wasn't the best and she really sleept like hell was about to fall on earth. All the bad dreams you could make at night made an appearance. What woke her up was Bonnie who knocked on her door and all the maids who followed for the traditional morning ritual. Elena wanted nothing to do with that today, she just wanted to eat and do be carefree.
B : Hello princess. How are doing this morning?
E : Uhh please leave... (Said Elena while burying her head into her pillow)
B : Are you feeling okay miss? You don't look so great.
E : Well, after the night I just had, you wouldn't be smiling either Bonnie. Please everyone leave except you. (She pointed at Bonnie)
The servants left all the bathing stuff on the large table and got out. Bonnie got worried and approached her friend.
B : My dear I know you since you're 15 and you went trough so much already.. But right now, I really don't follow you. What happened yesterday? You were with Master Damon, smiling, careless. And now, you're all moody and sad..
E : Figures, after my sister told me she would marry Stefan, he complete changed.
B : How did he ?
E : He didn't smile anymore, didn't come to me either. Wasn't warm or happy like he always is. Thankfully I spend the evening with my sister and Stefan because without that, I wouldn't have smiled a bit. Frustrated was all is was, nothing more..
B : Aw dear I'm so sorry I couldn't make my shift yesterday evening. Your mother requested me for something special I couldn't exactly say no..
E : It's alright.. I was with Sofia. Problem is, she's not you.
B : What about we get up and join everyone for the breakfast?
E : I don't want to see him if he's in the same mood he was yesterday..
B : Sweetheart you'll see your parents and your sister. Don't worry about master Damon.
E : You're right. I'll talk to him and clear thinks up.
B : That's the though princess I know. Now, come on dear.
Bonnie helped her get ready but for once, Elena did everything by herself for her personal care. She wondered since when she actually got shaved around her private lips! She looked up and got chocked by noticing what she saw. "Since when do I have these..?" She asked Bonnie by pointing at her pierced nipples. "Oh Elena.. since when do you not really care for you and look great for yourself ?" Elena thought about it but couldn't come up with an answer.. She doesn't remember half of what happened in her life. She even touched the piercings to make sure it was real or that they didn't hurt but apparently, she never felt them even when she slept so.. She took a good look of herself in her giant mirror and kinda liked the reflection she saw.
E : So, I really am pretty hm?
B : According the people in the village, you're more an inspiration then your sister.
E : Oh no Katherine is absolutely gorgeous ! I wouldn't stand a chance again her.
B : You should be more confident about yourself Elena.
E : That's what you say because you work for me.. Wait.. Does Katherine have these too!?
B : She has a lot more then you do. Actually, I find it rather repulsive but, hey I'm just a maid.
E : Ugh she's a little bit crazy... I'd like to choose my own dress today. It's sunny and warm unlike yesterday. Do you remember in witch closet my white angora dress could be? That one with some bordeau belt at the wait would be perfect.
B : Elena! You got quiet some taste for style.
E : I don't know half of my wardrobe but thanks. Let's get to it shall we? (She tried to put her leg on the ground but it wouldn't go along) Stupid leg...
B : You'll heal quickly. You're strong and the gods will help. Just some hope and tada.
Elena smiled and asked Bonnie for the help she usually got. With her leg still in bad shape, she couldn't get her dress right on. She was ready after a few minutes and Bonnie helped her to walk to the dinning room where everyone, except Damon, greeted her. Once she kissed her father and mothers cheeks, she got into her seat who, of course, was next to Damon's. Katherine and Stefan shared their breakfast with smiles and laughter but Elena's side wasn't so funny... While she picked up some fruit and bread, her father stood up and asked for attention. Everyone got surprised but hold still.
Aaron : I, Pharao, am full of joy now that my beloved daughter is about to marry a noble man as Salvatore. Ikharo was a strong man, a wise friend and the best man anyone could count on. Today, I'm proud to take his youngest son as my own. Stefan, please come join me.
Stefan didn't seem to understand what happend but got to Aaron slowly.
A : Ikharo, my longest friend and bestman, was an inspiration to me. I couldn't do anything about his death and I'm so sorry for this. I hope you'll live up to the expectations your dad had for you.
S : I hope I'll live up to it pharao.
A : Now that the most important persons are here, I'd like to make an announcement. I am the king of this land, of this great nation that I helped rise. I have the duty to fulfill the destiny Râ gave me by giving me the right to rule. But, someday I will leave this world and join Osiris into his golden paradies and a next king has to be in place. A firm and decided man has to be in charge. Now, I was given the gift of two wonderful children. My two diamonds, Katherine and Elena. My girls, I love you both so much and I care for your lifes as my own. Please know that it's because I do love you that I decided a while ago that only one of you would be able to marry and rule after me.
WHAT!? Elena could not have misunderstood this or could she? Did that mean what she feared ?
A : In two days, the wedding of my beloved daughter Katherine and Stefan will happen. So, my deer Elena I'm sorry you won't be our next queen but you'll stay our princess forever.
She was shocked and didn't understand! What was happening here!?
E : Father, I don't quiet get it. Will I be able to marry?
A : No my sweetheart. Katherine, as firstborn and first married has the privilege to..
E : I'M NOT AGREEING WITH THIS! (She yelled)
D : AH THERE! Finally you understand! I wish you would have known before..
A : What does this mean Elena?
D : No please, don't answer for me. I'm gonna tell you something sir. The first time I laid my eyes on your daughter, I fell in love with her beauty. (Damon turned to Elena) The way you move, as softly as air, the way you look, as beautiful as a wild rose , grown far away from here, where everything is possible. It's so simple to be in love with you. I was going to ask for your hand but my hatefull brother, who promised to me I'll never find peace, knew what was going to happen if he would ask Katherine's hand first! So once again brother, YOU BETRAYED ME! AND TOOK MY HAPPINESS RIGHT UNDER MY NOSE!
A : Guards arrest this fool! He's talking crazy. Stop him now.
E : NO ! LEAVE HIM ALONE! (She tried to stay up and run to him)
S : Servants, listen to your king and arrest him. All he said is a lie. Katherine I love you my dear. (He took her hands and kissed them)
E : Well I love master Damon too let me through!-
There! It was out. Nobody moved anymore! Only flying flies were to be heard. Damon looked chocked, he never expected her to say it out loud. He tried to run but guards took him by the arms and so did others with princess Elena.
A : THIS STOP NOW! I don't know what this show is but it doesn't make me laugh. Guards, take the eldest Salvatore to the cell. Maybe he'll talk less like a crazy person after some time in there.
E : NOOooo don't do this father please! What's his crime? That he loves me?
A : Like I said, I wanted to avoid all this and that's why only one of you will marry.
E : Mother please, say something! (Mhira could only look down, ashemed)
D : My angel don't bo.. Aggh! (Damon yelled in pain when a guard punched him in the stomach) What are you.. UGH! (He cried in pain when the other one knocked him out)
E : (She cried in pain) Oh my god Damon! Nooo father don't let them! Please someone do something! PLEASE! (She cried from all her lungs)
As the guards carried an unconscious Damon away and an heartbroken Elena cried, Katherine stood up and looked into her sister eyes a few seconds and then spoke up :
K : It's over! All this stops right now! It's my day and it has already been ruined enough. Thank you sister.. The first man you seem to love hates me, hates his own brother and wants to destroy my future.. I don't want to see your face before I'll get to say yes forever to Stefan. AM I CLEAR?
Elena fell on the ground again and Bonnie ran to her, picked her up but it was to late, she was already unconscious too. Fresh and dried tears were flowing on her cheeks and Bonnie felt powerless. Everyone left, their stomach completely sick and made it back to their rooms. Only Elena and Damon would not be able to see each other before Katherine would decide so.. Bonnie had to ask for help and she knew who would help her. Only she knew the real identity of the man who would come at her friends rescue and she would find him by the servant's place. Yes, only Alarïk would help.
