Fated to the King of Death

"The only way to end this war is by breaking your curse," explained the priestess and the eye of the goddess. "You were born as an unfortunate child, and that's why we were cursed along with you." "You always make such absurd claims but never tell me how to lift this curse," Olive retorted, his frustration evident in his gritted teeth. "The solution to your question lies in a human girl, one born with the sun in her eyes," she stated, dropping her staff and she laid down on her chair. "You must find this girl and form a union with her." Olive frowned, thoroughly disgusted by the idea, and in his anger, he scoffed, "You quack! None of your past prophecies were accurate, and yet you still claim to be the eyes of the goddess?" His frustration mounting, he rose from his seat and approached the old priestess with seething rage. "I bet Father wouldn't mind if I snap your neck in half, I am cursed anyways, I don't see anything wrong with getting more curses." "How dare you suggest that a pure-blooded vampire prince, the pride of my clan, should mate with a weak and lowly human? Do you not realize how much I despise them? They are no better than cattle! You insolent witch!" As he reached out to grab her, he noticed something unusual – she was asleep. His doubtfulness grew. She had the audacity to fall asleep in the presence of her prince! This would be reason enough to end her life. But she was too still for slumber. Reluctantly, he tapped her, but there was no response. Then he checked her pulse, confirming his suspicion—she was, indeed, lifeless. Khalilah's fate took an unexpected turn when she was abducted and forcibly separated from her family to wed a mysterious man. Little did she know that he was more than just a deranged individual.

Traumatized

 There was a small noise in the room, Khalilah could hear chattering in the distance, and she could feel the presence of people in the room. She was fully awake now, but she was unable to move or open her eyes, the only thing she knew was that there were people in the room. 

There was also a stiff feeling in her back and even though she was laid upon the softest bed in the world, they seemed like thorns against her body. Her heavy eyelids decided to open weakly and her eyes were met with sharp sunlight, so sharp she had to close them again.

She groaned softly and a small pain began to build in her head, that was when she caught the attention of whoever was in the room. 

"Your grace," soft but desperate voices chorused, "Are you alright?" 

"You're awake?" She heard another voice, that seemed to belong to her lady of honor, Malia. Malia ran as fast as she could towards the bed, and she held Khalilah's hands.
