whispers of a forgotten soul

Chapter 14: EMBRACE BY LONELY.



The mirror boy stepped into the vibrant otherworldly realm. But this place felt different from the previous one , the atmosphere glowed with soft , ancient magic. He walks solemnly through the Palace compound. He knew for sure that something should be done before it gets worse and out of hand .

He opened the door with all the strength in him . All of them were shocked, eyes fixed on the door to see who was it ." IT WAS THE CAVE PEOPLE " but this time they looked different here , all of them were in human form . One of them chuckled at him and said " what are you wearing young man ? " and they all bursted out laughing. " That not important now , the main reason l came here to tell you is that things didn't go as planned,"he said . They all changed there expression in one motion.

"How could you be so careless lior? , you doomed us all",one of the elders said . You know we cannot risk anything now that master is not here " , he continued. I know all that , lior answered . The plan was just to introduce her and return her back but something unexpected happened, the second prince came and took her with him , he concluded. " What !!! ??? ,how can that happen, they all asked in one voice.

As you know now we can do nothing about it because we cannot set foot in his Palace and neither can we tell the master. I hope this stays in between us and no one should show any unusual behavior as it can easily alert people. They all agreed as it was the best choice made by one of them. "The second prince can never harm her , so we just have to stay calm ", the other elder said .

A contract was signed ten- years ago that no one should set foot into the other ones land " that was there Palace " and if any one of them breach the contract then they will lose all their army . That was the main reason why they chose to be calm in this situation. But the contract was ending soon , that was a relief to them .

At the second prince's Palace, she was laid down on a soft cushion fabric in one of the royal Chambers. The warm sunlight hit directly to her face making her to wake up from the deep slumber . When she opened her eyes she was sorounded with strangers all bow down to her presence. "Thank God you are awake now , you heard me worried , how are you feeling now," the second prince said while holding her hands gently with concern.

She looked confused on what was happening. Why am l here and who are you , why are you here with me right now, she asked him . He knew for sure that was the result of taking her back to this world as she will now slowly regain her past memories and forget the recent ones.

You don't have to worry about anything. When the right time comes, it will all be known eventually, he said . But now you have to clean up and get changed but please you have to listen to them , they are your maids now if you want anything just don't hesitate to tell them or you can just come to me oky , he said with a soft low voice.

She was treated like royalty, servant bow there heads down whenever she appeared infront of them, the children smiled as she walks past them , nobles whispered in low voices . She doesn't understand why they all seem to recognize her . Suddenly the second prince appeared as she was walking past the garden of the Palace's compound.

"Why do you seem so lost my lady ? ", he asked her looking at her sad face .

"Where am l ?" She asks.

He smiled faintly and replied her , "Home " where you truly belong to . Can l ask you something ? She continued. "Of course", he replied . What your name ? She asked. That question was not what he expected from her but he replied with a gentle smile " Ravien" you can call me by my name , he concluded. All of a sudden, it was silent just the sound of birds twittering was heard . Then she continued " Atleast you have a name , l don't remember mine ," she said with a low tone .

This made his heart to shattered into small pieces , hearing this from the woman he truly loves and adores the most in his life . Can l give you one ? , he said . Her facial expression changed after hearing that ." Yes you can ", she answered joyfully.

"Rayne" , he said . It means light and purity.

" I love that " , she said happily .

Days passed by and so did there bond continued to grew . Ravien spends time with her ,brought books to her when he finished his duties. They seemed like a newly couple. Everyone was shocked on how the prince behaviour suddenly changed as he he didn't have much time to relax but now she is walking her through gardens and even helping her go to sleep through restless night . "Awww ! To be loved like this ", one of the maid whispered looking at them.

Something felt... off . Like her soul knows this isn't were she belonged. That night sleep wrapped her like a mist , soft and heavy. But in the stillness of her dreams, she heard it , A Name . Faint . Broken . Echoing down a long, moonlight hallway. She turned towards the sound . A shadow moves to a distance, coming closer. A boy. Pale eyes like glass . Like mirrors he reached out .

"You don't belong here ". The voice was gentle but it shook her soul . Her eyes snapped open, soaked in tears . She clunched her chest , breath uneven, and shouted "who am l ?" .

The door burst open . The second prince- Ravien rushed in , wrapping his arms around her trembling form.

"It's alright ", he whispered, holding her tight . "It was just a nightmare " . "You're safe here .when the sun rises everything will be oky ....l promise. She buried her head into his chest but in the silence between his words, her heart whispered something else.

"You don't belong here "
