Chapter 1: Engaged to the masked warrior
Chapter 1
Lord Green.
The Greens Palace was filled with what it was known for, it's golden statues of past kings welcomed the guests that arrived to witness Prince Charles coronation.
Charles was the first son of King Green, he was as dashing as he was cold hearted , the sound of his voice sent ice cubes on the skin of his servants.
His attitude gave his father,King Green a second thought, he was too cold and arrogant to be king therefore the King made an unexpected announcement.
Prince Charles waited breathlessly for his name to be called, as the next in line to the throne.
But was taken aback when he heard his sister's name.
"I present to you all, Queen Chloe the fifth!." Charles eyes popped open, this was such an embarrassment, no, he would not sit and watch this, at least not calmly.
He marched off in a huff.
Entering his room, he smashed his vase, smoke filled the air of his chambers, the flowers burning. Bimley his servant, was the first to bear his wrath.
"You saw it, did you not, he cheated me, that man."
Chloe was not expecting the announcement either, she tried to object as the crown was being placed slowly on her head.
How could she rule?, there was a war coming, and she was no warrior, damn the war,she could not even deliver the speech, she ran away like a kitten.
The people murmured.
Chloe ran into her brother's room, she knew he was furious, but she did not want to be his enemy.
She tried to convince him that she was no party to this, she planned to relinquish her role.
"Don't try to be a missy good shoes to me!." Charles growled..
"There's only one way to settle this - a sword fight, to the death."
Charles stormed out furiously, his gaze locked towards his father's room.
Even his father feared the rage of his son, so much so that he locked the doors of his chambers after retiring for the evening.
With Guards scattered around every corner.
"You call your self a king Lord Green?, you are not a king but a coward!."
The Guards seized him, clutching his collar.
There was but one rule for anyone who blasphemed the king and that was death.
But that order was to be made by the new queen Chloe.
"Must I make a decree father?." Chloe asked timidly.
Her father responded, making her know that this was her right, her duty to the people.
Chloe declared with a loud voice.
"With a heavy heart, I sentence you to a months confinement within these walls.
Under the authority vested in me by the queens seal."
Charles was gilted away by the guards to his room, where he was detained.
Rather than becoming a better person, the confinement only fueled his rage, and by the end of the month had reached its peak.
He determined to bring the kingdom down to ashes, if his rights were not placed in his hands.
