《Kingly Desire (BWWM) (on hiatus)》Pageant: final act

Advertisement

Akia is led to the throne room by more than 7 guards she's not sure if the king did it because he thought she was going to make a run for it.

She holds on to her red and gold cloak. She's being followed by so many footsteps and they don't help soothe her anxiety.

They slam open the giant doors of the throne room and inside the king is sat on the throne. He's visibly shaking, his bright eyes are as dark as the night.

Akia is frozen as he stands up on shaky legs. His knuckles buckle and a guard is immediately at his side to hold him up. Akia knows he's not weak, this isn't happening because he's weak. It's happening because his anger had grown passed containment of his human body and it was failing to hold itself together when all he wanted to do was use his magic to kill her.

He was holding back, fighting it. He was having an internal battle with himself and he was losing.

" DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT YOU HAVE DONE?!" The king screamed in a voice that wasn't recognizable at all.

"WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!"

Akia is slammed against the wall and she falls to the ground. She screams in shock and the pain.

She puts a hand on the back of her head and blood is falling down and into her neck.

The King eyes are sucked away and there are just green illuminated holes in his face. He growls, it's dark and animalistic and Akia brings herself to her feet.

She's not afraid, she knew this would happen and she's ready. Everyone will know who their king truly is after tonight. They'll know and fear him for the monster that he truly is.

The man moves his hands in front of him and then bends his fingers into a fist. Akia feels all the blood in her system spring up into her stomach and then into her lungs soon She's choking. She's choking on her own blood.

Her whole body is in agonizing pain, she can't scream can't beg him to stop can't do anything.

Her vision is blurry and she thinks for a second that she should just accept it. Accept that this was it.

She'd lived a good life until now.

Then she hears a crack and then an unholy scream. She's relieved

from the magical hold. The guards are absolutely horrified when they see the bend in the King's arm.

He'd broken off the bone in his wrist and had screamed in agony.

Akia was traumatized at the sight.

The king was sat on the floor with his wrist dislocated from his arm. It's bent and all he's doing now is breathing heavily.

His eyes are flickering from normal to their other stage.

He screams as a way of power surges through him. It's supposed to be directed at Akia but he doesn't allow it.

He doesn't direct it anywhere. He keeps it inside himself and his body experiences the pain by itself.

Having 2 different powerful creatures in his body has always been too much for him. Growing up his anger was almost impossible to handle. The witch side of him was vengeful, wanted to tear any and everyone that got in his way even a little bit.

His siren side couldn't tolerate any disrespect. It didn't get angry often but when it did there was no stopping it. The pride of the two creatures mixed together in the human body often caused wars.

Akia has wronged him but she was only a child, not to mention that she was carrying a child herself.

This, he couldn't allow it to happen.

He couldn't let himself kill her. He'd never survive it.

A burst of power surges from his head to his toes. It burns his nerves and he's in uncontrollably pain.

Akia walks toward him, she's not sure what she's doing but she can't help herself. She kneels to his level. She wraps an arm around him and he's in too much pain to shove her away.

She pulls away and then she gets on her knees. She bows with her head on the floor.

"Forgive me your majesty. I deserve death for what I've done to you." Akia said and the king wasn't sure whether she was being genuine but it was soothing him to see her in such a submissive position.

She repeats herself until the King's breathing slows down. A very long time passes before he sits up. He pushes his wrist back into place with a nasty snap.

Akia lifts her head up to see the King's green eyes. He's staring at her with empty eyes once more. No anger, no feeling... nothing. He's looking at her like she's nothing.

"The queen.. where is she?" He asked, his voice cracked. the guards who had moved to the wall to give the king space.

"She's in her chambers your majesty."

The king stood up, he's walking just fine now. He walks right passed Akia's bowed body.

Akia remains bow until she hears the throne room's doors shut. She coughs something out and looks on the floor to find very black blood on the floor.

She gasped.

The king walks straight to the queen's chambers, his steps are large and he's in a rush to apologize, console her and promise to fix it.

He opens the door to the room quietly not wanting to frighten the woman , and he enters.

"Give this to him, it's a lot stronger than the other one." Ophelia said and the king looks at the small shut glass bottle the maid was giving the queen who looked distressed. He focuses his sense of smell on the object and it burns. It's substances burn his nose.

"Knightlac." He said, his eye brows knit together.

"What's going on here?!" The king commanded and the queen squeaks turning around to face the king.

She covers her mouth.

"Your majesty." She said her voice quivering.

"Why's the maid giving you knightlac?" The king asked, he's walking closer to the queen who shot up from her seat.

"Knightlac?!, she told me it was a sleep serum." The queen said in a rush and the king knew her better than that.

"Sleep serum?, how long have we known each other Marilyn?!. How dare you lie to me?" The king feels his stomach bubble up with rage once more but this rage was different.

"Your majesty, I swear." The queen started but the king clenched his fingers and she couldn't control the words that came out of her mouth.

"I wanted to use Your venom to kill the sun king." The queen said under a trance, then she gasped and frantically covered her mouth.

The King's heart dropped.

"Your majesty, I didn't mean any of that-"

"Why?-why?" The king said and his eyes welled up with tears.

"Don't cry your majesty. Don't cry, I did it for us. For me and you I did all of it for us."

"ALL OF WHAT?!" The king exclaimed. The earth vibrates under their feet and in an instant Ophelia is gone.

The queen looks over and sees an absent Space where she stood.

"You are a moon creature my king, all of our children were moon creatures but they ripped them away from me, turned me into a laughingstock brought in a child to replace me... There was nothing wrong with my child, they were just like you. They were your children.

You let them take them away from me, you let them degrade me, pretended as if no one was at fault for their mutations but you were. You brought someone else into my palace, you brought someone else into your heart. I had to prove that I was worthy of you."

"What did you do." The king's voice had lost any emotion behind it.

"I choice to carry the moon king."

His world came shattering down.

"You did what?"

"I did it for us- I wanted to bring our children home."

"Knightlac, you did-" The King's body felt Frigid.

"I'm sorry, it's the only part of this I regret." The queen said and the king stumbles back.

He makes his way out of the room instructing guards to take her away as he carried himself away. Tears flowing freely down his cheeks. He walks to the garden. His insides bubbling up with pain.

She'd betrayed him, the one person, his one person.

She'd decided to birth evil.

She'd doomed herself, she's doomed him.

The only person he's ever trusted, his home.

He screams into the darkness. It's a blood curling scream that Akia hears while she's walking back alone to her chambers. It's the last thing she hears before a knife is placed on her neck.
