Chapter 25

Eros's P.O.V.

I glared at my father as he continued talking. It was the same shit over and over again. The girl, the prophecy, you get what I mean. The thing that was really annoying me was him talking about Violet like she was a monster.

She's like all witches, a monster.

It took all my might not to snort; a monster? Remindes me of someone I know. The thing that fascinated me the most was him talking about Violet with such hate and venom.

"My King, if you mind me asking; how can we stop her?" One of my father's followers asked.

"Killing her is our only choice." My ears perked at his response.

"But wouldn't that cause a war?" I interrupted. The minute I spoke, all eyes were on me. They were probably surprised that I spoke. Why? Because I rarely do talk when my father is in the same room, yelling on the other hand was another thing.

"So be it." He answered, recovering from his shock.

"But Your Majesty-"

"Are you opposing me Simon?" My father growled at his right hand man.

"No Your Majesty." I watched amused as Simon shook his head and shrunk back in his seat.

I rubbed my temples. This can't be happening, it just can't!

Us going into war with the witch kingdom meant losing Violet's trust... and heart.

Am I ready to go through that? I asked myself.

No I'm not. I wasn't going to lose her just because my dipshit of a father decided to kill her.

But what am I going to do? I inwardly groaned.

That was the main problem, I didn't know what to do!

"Are you sure that she's the one?" My voice echoed throughout the room. Once again, all eyes were on me. I inwardly rolled my eyes. What was up with these people?

"We have reliable resources which have confirmed that Violet White is the girl from the prophecy." Simon answered me, his tone was clipped and professional.

"And what do your reliable resources say?" I knew that is was a bad move saying that since I was mocking him but I couldn't help it. I could feel my father's intense gaze on me but I didn't look at him.

He can go to hell for all I care.

"The girl can control fire, water, earth and air; all four elements which is unheard of. That's not all, in the past weeks, she has been getting stronger and more powerful which adds to the danger for our side." He stated looking at my father and me. I nodded but didn't answer.

"We will talk about this later, you are all dismissed." I was the first one to get up and walk towards the door. I was hoping to avoid the confrontation with my father.

"Eros, may I have a few words with you?" His voice was rather demanding. I turned around and crossed my arms defiantly.

"You can but not now." With that, I turned around and left the conference room feeling my father shooting daggers at my back.

---

I walked through the halls until I stood in front of the familiar hard maple looking door. Opening the door, my eyes landed on a figure laying on the bed. My eyes softened as I was instantly reminded by the awful memories of the past.

Hesitantly, I took slow steps towards the bed, afraid of waking her up.

She seemed slightly pale, her lips were parted with her strenuous breathing. I sat on the side of the bed and pushed the wet stands of hair away from her forehead. I sat like that for a whole hour observing her, nothing but love in my eyes.

"Eros?" She murmured opening her dazed eyes slowly.

"I'm right here mom, right here." I smiled as her sad eyes shone with that caring glint that I always loved.

Violet's P.O.V.

"What time is it?" I asked rubbing my neck. We had been in this limo for about an hour still hadn't reached our destination. Oh and did I mention that I was bored?

Yeah, that's what happens when you're in a limo with Miss Chit-chat by your side.

Some might ask me why I would be bored when I had Claudia by my side. Well the answer was easy; she only talked about one thing.

Boys.

Boys, boys, stupid boys. Her and her dreams of Harry Styles and Fransisco Lachoswki were getting on my nerves. I just wanted to scream my lungs out 'I get that you wanna jump in bed with them!' but refrained myself from doing so.

"You're boring Violet!" I snorted at that; look who was talking.

"It's not my fault that I'm not interested!" I tried reasoning but Claudia was having none of that.

"That's not an excuse. When your best friend is talking with you, you listen to her!" She scolded and I rolled my eyes.

Why did I ask her to come with me? I thought dryly.

We were on our way to an orphanage as my uncle instructed. Being a princess and a heir to the throne came with a lot of responsibilities. Visiting orphanages was one of them. I was nervous, I mean I had never been around kids before so this was going to be the first time I would be doing this.

"I can't wait to see those little buggers!" Claudia squealed with excitement lacing her words.

Talk about being nervous.

"You like kids?"

"Of course I do! Who doesn't like cute little chipmunks?" She gushed smiling. I shook my head chuckling.

Claudia is... Claudia.

"But it makes me sad to think that they have no parents." I looked away. Her words brought tears to my eyes but I blinked them away.

To be honest, it hurt. Living without your parents hurt. Claudia obviously noticed the pained expression on my face so she reached out for my hand and squeezed it gently.

"I'm sorry." I stared at my lap and smiled.

"It's okay."

And that was how our ride continued in silence. To be honest it was kind of creepy. I mean, I was used to Claudia chatting away and filling the silence but right now her being quiet was so... weird. Awkward in a way too.

It was when the car had stopped that I knew we had the orphanage.

"Your visit here is very appreciated Princesses." Marie genuinely smiled.

"It's our pleasure Marie." Claudia was the one to reply.

I didn't reply since I was too busy playing with the two and a half year old angel in my arms.

"What's this?" I raised a finger.

"One!" She exclaimed and mimicked me by raising her finger.

"And this?"

"Doo." I chuckled. This girl was too cute for her own good.

"And this?"

"Tree." This time I let out a full laugh. To my surprise, little Aya started giggling and laughing as well. Her blonde curls bounced as her black eyes shown with delight.

Afterwards, as the other kids in the orphanage were listening to Claudia while she read them the story of little red riding hood, I sat on a chair with Aya on my lap, listening to the story.

The entire time, Aya's little fingers were wrapped around my hand. My smile dropped.

I just couldn't comprehend how anyone could leave this child at an orphanage's door. Yeah, Marie told me that. She said that one day she woke up hearing a baby cry and found little Aya in a box in front of the door.

How could her parents do that to her? Leave a small, helpless child like that?

I don't know how anyone can let go of an adorable child like her. I know I wouldn't.

I looked down at Aya and smiled when I saw how interested she was with the story.

---

I noticed a flash of a camera from a distance but paid it no mind.

"Don go." Aya tugged on my shirt begging me with her sad eyes.

"I have too but would you like it if I come again?" She nodded enthusiastically, her face breaking into a wide happy grin.

"Okay then." I kissed the top of her head and handed her to Marie.

Gosh, I just met the kid and she already got me wrapped around her finger!

"Bye cutie. I'll see you soon." I whispered in her ear making her giggle.

I mentally groaned. If she keeps on doing that, then I'm not sure if I can go.

"Bye bye." She waved showing me her toothy grin.

"Bye!"

---

I hummed as Warzone for The Wanted played through my earphones. It was an old song but I couldn't help pressing the replay button over and over again.

I throw my armor down and leave the battle ground.

For the final time now.

I-I-I know, I'm runnin' from a warzone.

Ah! Max's voice was just too good!

But anyways, I needed to talk to my uncle to find out what duties I would have tomorrow.

I mentally groaned, and girls envy me because I'm a princess; I thought dryly.

"Ugh! I hate her!" I stopped dead in my tracks as I took my earphones off.I walked closer to where the voice lead and guess who it was... Lauren. Remember her? Yeah, she was the girl who went on a double date with us.

"I can't believe Prince Eros is going out with her! What does she have that I don't? I mean, I'm prettier. C'mon!" She played with her hair. She was wearing a pair of very short shorts and a pink cut top.

I narrowed my eyes at her. What did I have that she didn't?

Brains.

I mentally sniggered. Well, what could I do, fake bimbos were always going to be fake bitches, right?

"And like, she doesn't even deserve to be a princess! Like, look at her!"

I think it's the time to make a big entrance.

"Excuse me?" I took a big step forward and glared at her.

Cover your eyes children, things might get nasty!
