Zack nodded his head before he got out of the carriage and stood behind them,sighing softly.Derek soon followed and placed his hands behind his back.

Hendrina began walking on the cobblestone path that led upwards to the staircase. The grand staircase clicked with the contact of her heels. Ares escorted the Princess which seemed to be a common gesture amongst the two. Ares began his small talk of the civil war. He spoke of his actions to take and possible more guards are twenty-four patrol. ''It'll be best for a civil war, patrols around the nearby villages will be good. Along with some patrols scout the outer regions of Hiria. If any rebellious civilian comes close to the castle they shall be executed.'' Ares said his arm tightening around Hendrina. ''Of course, I suppose your father too can handle those decisions. It must be passed by through him. Though, the one's approval you do indeed need is my mother's and father's.'' Hendrina said her voice calm. ''My mother and father were to die in this civil war, marriage will have to come rather quickly. Which means I may need the high order's approval for my promotion.'' The maiden stated. Their chatter continued as they feared for the worse.

Zack frowned and bit his lip as he followed them,looking a bit nervous and looked at Derek"I'm slightly nervous about having a civil war...."He mumbled as he frowned.Derek sighed"But it could help us with this problem and it can at least bring peace between us"
-
''P-Peace?'' Hendrina's cheeks tinted pink. ''I-I have other candidates for marriage, Derek!'' Hendrina said her head to the side. Ares chuckled at the sight of the blushing princess. ''Yes, the Princess does indeed. Remember, the prince still has to go against me.'' Ares smirked feeling triumphant. He kept the princess close enough until they felt their arms brush against each other.
-
Derek chuckled and looked over at Prince Zack and nudged him slightly"you gonna do it or not?".Zack chuckled, mischeif visible in his eyes"I'm going to wait until all the men who want Hendrina have gotten done with their own little charms and taunting and then do my special move on her~"He said lowly.
-
Ares eyed the Prince with suspicion at the whispering between him and the butler. ''Princess Hendrina,'' Ares called his voice laced with sweetness. ''Yes?'' She replied, her gaze scanning her surroundings for a large oak door with the carvings of the royal bloodline's symbol. ''Who do you want to spend the rest of your life with?'' Ares questioned, his lips curved into a smile. ''Well, since I spent so much time with Lord William and after the stunt, he pulled during dinner the other night, I'm not quite sure. I have considered, Alexander or perhaps Samuel. As of now, I am no longer sure of who to marry, Ares.'' Hendrina mumbled, her head spinning as she thought of the possibilities of marrying one of these men.
-
Zack snickered as he formed his plan out"Soon I will be the one who will marry her and walk away with her in my arms...they won't know what hit them.."He said lowly and grinned widely.Derek chuckled and glanced around.
-
''I see,'' Ares hummed. The clicking of their heels rang in the large hallway as the paintings gawked down upon them. At the end of the hallway was the large wooden oak door with carvings of the royal family. A few guards were patrolled in front of this large door. Hendrina's hand came in contact with the gold door knob. She paused, fear rising within the pit of her stomach. The maiden eyed the door knob as she could hear the pacing of footsteps. Muffled voices could be heard behind the doors. From experience, Hendrina knew it was a conversation with the commander, Ares' father and few other high ranking members of the Hiria Empire. ''Open it,'' Ares whispered to the princess. Feeling pressured, she clenched onto the door knob. ''We shouldn't discuss with them now, right? Perhaps another time?'' Hendrina questioned, glancing at the general.
-
"It's better to go in and get it over with and plus you can't go anywhere except inside,Princess...."Derek said as he looked at the door.Zack stayed silent but nodded his head,agreeing with Derek.
-
''I know, I know. I just can't help but, feel afraid.'' She whispered. Taking a deep sigh, Hendrina swung the door open. The high order of Hiria was settled around the room. Silence filled for just a moment until Queen Martin stood from her seat. The Queen's violet hair was settled into a tight bun where her bangs rested just above her eyebrows. Her eyebrows creased in worry, as she held her arms open wide. ''My Belladonna, come here.'' The queen whispered. Smoothing the creases in her dress, Hendrina walked her way to her mother. Hugging the woman, Queen Martin kissed the top of her head and smiled. ''Mr. Ars Kokinos, please report me on the trip to town. I wish to hear some good news before we get down to business.'' The Queen said her voice soft as the doors closed with a small click.
Hendrina stiffened against the Queen as she kept her face out of sight. ''Once arriving in town, Princess Hendrina and Prince Zack entered Ramsey's bakery. Without any notice, the Princess and the Prince ran off to elsewhere. Whilst that occurred I allowed my men to find the two runaway rulers. During that period of time, Phoebe, the carriage driver assisted me in giving the announcement of the Elven Prince arrival to Hiria as he'll be joining the harem of Princess Hendrina Martin.'' Ares paused, hesitance clear in his voice. ''The people began rioting against the royal guard once hearing the news. They weren't happy. Many of my men were attacked with minor injuries. Though, it was said the uprising of war could be possible. To avoid all deaths, it is put to a simple task. Kill the Elven Prince and begin the next, Elven and Witch war.'' Ares concluded. Hendrina squeezed her arms tight around her mother whilst she did the same. ''Prince Zack,'' Mrs. Martin called. ''Your thoughts?'' She asked, her voice soothing. -
"Why do I have to be killed?!!!!! I haven't done a single thing wrong!!!!! Your daughter just wanted me to be able to relax and she knew that if met the other witches,they would just taunt and make fun of me just because I was an elf!!!"Zack shouted as his eyes glowed a bright blue as he trembled in anger.Derek frowned deeply"Sire......".Ignoring Derek,Zack continued to snap out of anger"Many of these men that want to marry your daughter have been making me lose my cool!!!!Taunting.Teasing.The same old thing that I have to deal with when I'm approached by those men!!!!They think they are better than me,just because I'm an elf!!!Always having those annoying smirks on their faces,right after they say something offending to me!!"He said as he had an angry scowl on his face,tears welled up in his eyes before turning around and storming out of the room.

Silence filled the room after the Prince's outburst and departure. The Queen giggled with innocence and smiled. ''He's quite sensitive, is he not?'' Queen Martin hummed, running her thin fingers through Hendrina's hair. Angered by her mother's choice of words, Hendrina squirmed in her place. Pushing against her mother, anger clear on her face. ''It's prejudice, mother. We may hate ourselves and love the humans but, the Elves are trying to look to the better side of things while we're tainted because we believe we have the bad, horrible blood of humans running through our veins.'' Hendrina argued back at her mother. ''Calm down, Princess,'' Xavier, the head butler mumbled as she shook her head. ''I refuse!'' She continued forth. Exiting the doors to her mother's study room Hendrina closed it shut. Whispering the words of a spell, a symbolized glow appeared in front of her hand onto the door knobs. Thorns grow and curved itself around the golden knobs locking whoever is inside shut. ''That'll give me some time to find him,'' Hendrina muffled. Calling out the Prince's name Hendrina tracked down the halls in search for him.
-
Zack heard her calling his name as he was curled up in a corner,tears rolling down his cheeks."......H-H-Hendrina.."He said before curling up tighter,his body shaking as started to cry softly.
-
''P-Prince Zack,'' Hendrina whispered clearing her throat. Memories of her childhood spent crying because of the new power the Martin Family withheld flooded her mindscape. Her heart pounded against her chest as she listened to the rhythmic beating. The maiden's stomach twisted and turned in her nervous state as she looked down at him. Hendrina settled onto the floor in front of him. Combing her shaking fingers through his hair the princess sighed. Using her free hand, Hendrina wiped away the tears that crawled down his cheeks. Humming a tune, Hendrina did her mother's usual techniques to calm her when she was younger.
-
Zack glanced at her after feeling the Princess's hand running through his hair and then feeling her wiping his tears.He then gently hugged her close"I'm sorry..."He mumbled and then nuzzled into her neck, listening to her humming.
