The Princess Shield

The Monarchy of Waybrook, a kingdom of Rolyat, was my home, my fortress, and I was willing to do anything to protect it and ensure a good life for my subjects, my only impediment to realizing my dreams was my own father, the King. My father was a perfect despot, and after many years in hold and many mistakes the council was unsatisfied, the population in revolt and a possible uprising was more than right, and I knew that if I wanted to change that I had to take the throne as eldest, but how could I do that without a husband as the archaic law of our country dictated? I don't know, and I'm with tied hands. But if marrying a complete stranger was the price of my people's freedom from my own father's clutches, would I be willing to pay it? Even if it cost me my freedom and having to live away from the one I really love? That's what I had to find out. |MATURE CONTENT SINCE CHAPTER 40|

We arrived at the palace some time later, the tattoo on my rib burning a little, and I drove the car to the greenhouse and turned off the engines watching Roman get out of the car with a dead expression on his face, green eyes devoid of life as we walked towards the door he seemed to be walking towards his own execution.

I opened the door and he came in removing his jacket and we walked through the plants to my studio, I opened the door and he came in and stopped in the middle of the room and stood looking at the painting I had done of his back full of scars a long time ago, the dragon of the De'Ath flag highlighted in my canvas.

“When you said you painted this canvas to tell my story you missed one detail," He said grimly and stared at me.
