My Knight & My Lady
Chapter 6: Why didn't you tell anybody?
I was up in room crying, remembering that… that horrible past when all of a sudden, my knight comes in my room and locks the door, and by the looks of it, he isn't going to leave without an explanation.
"What do you want?"
"You either talk or I won't leave, do please explain what you meant when you said I wouldn't look at you the same way again"
"Why should I?"
"So I can help you, you just can't hide what's ever inside, it's not healthy dealing with stuff and situations by yourself"
"I've done pretty well by myself the past 16 years"
"And you think you're ok?"
I stood in silence, he was right, I'm not ok, I never was, and if I keep this up, I'll never be ok.
"I'm just scared"
"Of what?"
"Of people rejecting me and looking at me all weird and stuff if they know the truth"
"And who says I'm like those people, these past 4 months I've done nothing but please you and do everything you want me to do without a care nor a 'but' and you'd think I would never look at you the same way if I know the truth… That will be right, but not in a negative way, depending on the situation, I would look at you as a better person, nothing more"
I raise my head up from the pillow I was crying on, I turn around so my body could face his, but without looking into his eyes, I softly whispered those words I was so afraid to confess and say for the past 16 years 'My Father, he… raped me'.
RIVEN'S POV
My eyes widen as I heard the most awful words coming out of my princess mouth, a first I didn't knew what to think. But once I saw her cry again, all I did was hold her tight and let her cry for as long as she needed. After a good 10 minutes, she finally stopped and calmed down, she looked up at me waiting for me to say something, but I didn't knew what to say, all I did was wipe the rest of the tears off her face, she smiled a little, but it quickly faded away.
"Why didn't you tell anyone?"
"I was 5, what where 5 year olds supposed to do? I was scared"
"You should have said something, someone could have helped you"
"I know, but I was scared Riven, scared if I told anyone he would have done it again, I didn't know what to do"
"But how did this happened, why, what was his reason?"
"A few days passed after my mother died, he came to my room all drunk with a tequila bottle in his hand, saying that I looked exactly like my mother, and… if I looked like her, I would…"
"You would what?"
"I would taste like her too, and things got out of hand, he held my hands… and it just, happened, I didn't know what to do… I felt so discussed so gross, I just wanted to die"
She quickly began to cry in my shoulders, I held her tighter, what kind of father is this guy? Doing what he did to his own daughter.
"Did anyone notice, you feeling sick, bleeding and stuff?"
"No… I managed to hid everything from everyone, but I regret it so badly that to this very day, I still feel the pain, the grossness and no matter how much I scrub and take showers and baths, the feeling doesn't go away… Riven please don't reject me"
"Who said I would?"
She gave a sweet smile, and rested her head on my shoulder. Hours passed and she fell in a deep sleep. I laid her on her bed, and left her room. Pissed at the fact that her father is a disgusting pig, I could hardly sleep; it was 4 am, so I decided to take a small walk around the castle. After a good 30 minutes of a good walk I took a small nap when I woke up, Musa was at my bedroom window looking at the sun rising.
"My lady is everything ok?"
"Yeah, I just didn't like the feeling of being alone, when I woke up you were gone, so I decided to come to your room and wait until you woke up, hope you don't mind"
"Not at all princess"
"What are you going to do?"
"About what?"
"About what I told you, are you going to tell everyone? Or just yell at my dad? Tell me"
"I'm going to hire a privet investigator and make sure this ends with justice, no one shall know until this is dealt with"
"You sure about it?"
"Trust me princess"
-A week later-
I'm waiting outside the court yard for investigator Mark, he said he would help, but it was going to be hard since this happened years ago and the fact that the only evidence that will do is a medical analysis done by the royal doctor.
"You must be prince Riven of Magix right?"
"Yes, and your Detective Mark, nice to meet you"
"The pleasure is mine, now where's the princess?"
"She's up in her room, waiting, she didn't want to come down, afraid of seeing her father"
"I see, well let's get this on shall we?"
We walk to Musa's room, on our way there, Mark explains that she has to agree to let the doctor examine her or this would be a waste of time.
"Give me a few minutes with her, to ask her some questions and write down some details, I'll talk to her doctor if she agrees on doing the medical studies"
"Do whatever you need to do"
He nodded and went inside the room, they spent a good 15 minutes asking and answering questions, thinking of possible evidence, Musa and Mark came out of the room, Musa smiled, she looked calm, and I was happy, it's been this whole week since I've a smile on her face.
"Tomorrow the Doctor will arrive at 10 am sharp to pick up Musa and head for the hospital to do the medical investigation, the results will be in within a week or so, if anything goes wrong or suspect something, give me a call ok?"
"Sure thing"
"Do you mind coming with me tomorrow Riven?"
"Of cores princess, why don't you get some sleep, ok?"
"Kay, see you in the morning"
