(Sky POV)
It's very quiet in the palace when I walk in. Its night time and the great corridors are silent and dim. You can only really here the slight servant's gossip or the footsteps echoing through the halls.
I go straight to the thrown room to find my father. He is always there when he has a massive problem. I was correct when I see him slumped in his throne. His chin leaning on his hand, as his elbow is on the chair rest.
"Father" I say loudly and slightly bow. He turns his head and nods in response.
"Son, I a guessing you are here to discuss what we are to do about these previous events." He says, he sounds tired.
"Yes, what has happened with Camlia?" I ask, not knowing what this means for our engagement.
"Well, she is to rule Bentonon now, King Miler has been sent to the Omega dimension on a trail. So, my son the engagement no longer stands Camila has already left and back at her own home."
For some reason I feel relieved. Maybe I never really wanted to marry her. I just forced myself to be happy.
"But" my father pauses." from recent changes we must be quick in a new alliance, Eraklyon can be vulnerable-"
"What do you mean, no planet or nation has attacked one another in over 100 years father there is no rush." I interrupt; my father is not thinking straight.
"So, I told you to always be prepared for things like war. And we will need an ally in case we are forced in to such matters." My father replies getting agitated.
"You were never adamant about alliances in the past father." I raise my voice." You only ever wanted peace with the dimension, it seems that since my second year at red fountain your were all about alliances, you forced me to be with Disapro. But it wasn't since I met Bloom…." I drift o in my own thoughts.
I see my fathers face change when I say her name, like I have figured out his secret or something.
"Ever since you knew about Bloom, you wanted an alliance someone for me to marry. It was never about war, was it? And even today you are still trying to force an engagement with another royal family, for what? So I can't be with her, What did Bloom ever do to you-"
"Enough!" My father's voice booms through the throne room. His eyes dangerous with anger. But I become just as angry.
"No, you tell me what she did to deserve your hatred." I yell.
"Sky, I might be your father but I am your king, so show me some respect." My father gets up from his throne.
"What did you say to her in this exact room three years ago, that made her hate the sight of me? I deserve to know if you persist on me being away from her!" I shout. But my father keeps a stern face.
"I promised her I would never tell you." His voice is beaten and rigid. What he said does not make sense.
"Why would she make you do that?" I say, my voice no longer loud.
"Because I caused her great lose." My father replies simply. I give him a confused look and her sighs before turning around and walking up the steps to his throne with his back turned from me.
"You see Sky we make sacrifices for our kingdom. But we as Kings can make them feel like terrible mistakes." He pauses and stands still, looking out the great window above the thrones." I told you that the city of Acrom was destroyed by powerful dark sorceresses. But I didn't tell you that those sorceresses were in fact the three ancestral witches."
"That was there way of showing me there power and if I didn't tell them the information on Sparks they needed to know-"
"Wait, on Sparks, information on Sparks." I repeat, trying to grasp all the knowledge I can. Even though I know I don't want to really now the end to this story.
"Yes, I had to tell them about the channels underneath Sparks or they would destroy our planet instead." My father says grimly. And I hope he didn't do what I think he did.
"Father, please tell me you didn't." I ask, praying. But my father just bows his head, and I know the answer.
"The next night , I watched from the Universe look out, the curse devoured Sparks. I betrayed my good friend and I condemned his people and his family to a horrible fate. When I first saw Bloom, that day I came to watch you at red fountain and she ended up fighting Dispro. I couldn't believe my eyes, she was the spitting image of Miriam…" My father laughs to himself and shakes his head. But then he becomes more stern.
"You knew who she was?" I question.
"Yes, I couldn't believe she had survived that curse .But she also reminded me of what I did. And from cruel twist of fate it was the girl that you fell in love with. So I pushed her away, I couldn't bear to look at her. And she defiantly should not associate with me or …"
"A son of a traitor" I finish. A sweep of emotions are whirling in my head. I understand now why Bloom did what she did but what seems to hurt more is that she left me for something my father did. It makes me angry that she would leave me on that. That she would not tell me the truth, and instead lie to me all those years.
"So…" My voice is shaky and I clear my throat." You made her leave because you could not stand to look at her."
My father says nothing.
"that's your reason" my anger gets a hold of me." You made her leave me , because you feel guilty."
"Understand this for my Sky, please." My father begs but I beyond reason now.
"How am I supposed to understand this, you hid this from me for so long you lied to me." I yell, then pause." I have to go see her."
My father turns around" No, you'll push her over the edge shes fragile about this, think this through.-"
I cut my father off" I want to hear her side of things." And with that I leave the throne room. And I am going to find Bloom.
