Chapter 46
Imprisonment of body is painful but imprisonment of heart is the worst.
I have been locked up in this very high prison for three days without even a window. I hear nothing but my own crying and the chains tied to my feet every time I try to take a step.
I was now lying on the cold floor staring at the ceiling of the prison. How many sinful vampires have been trapped in this place? How many vampires have experienced waiting for their own death in this crowded place?I never thought the day would come when a princess like me who was looked up to by many vampires, admired by all would now be found lying on the dirty floor of the dungeon awaiting the call of death.
how many times I ask myself, is it a sin to love? Is it a sin to follow my heart? I did nothing but love but why does it have to lead to death?
"Zen, can you talk to me now? I just want to ask something.." I bit my bottom lip to stop my sobbing again. I'm sick and tired of hearing myself cry.
"Zen, why is this? Brother, why is this? We both just fell in love. You loved Claret, I love Adam very much. but why do we always lead to death? Why is it always like this?" I couldn't hold back my own tears because they started flowing again.
"Don't we have a right to be happy? Is our family cursed when it comes to love? Can you answer me Zen?" I'm talking to myself like crazy.
I know that even if I ask a few hundred questions, I will not receive an answer from my brother.
"I just fell in love, just fell in love..." I said again and again. I made myself in fetus style and I cried endlessly.
"Adam..."
"Adam..."
"Adam, I want to see you.."
"Adam.." I tried to enter his mind but I couldn't reach it. It was closed and it is possible that Adam is still unconscious. But three days have passed. What happened to him?
"Adam..."
it looks like this is all I've got, the council says that on the third day I will be beheaded and I know that at any moment soldiers will come to take me and put me in front of all the vampires of the Parsua empire.
not a single one of my family visited me in three days, they must have been banned by the higher vampires. Why do they have to waste time on a traitor like me?
instead of continuing to cry I started to sing a song that I hear Casper playing in his room, I know to sing it from the other world.
To the edge of the dream, of the dream We can't be separated~~
already, every time when I'm stifled to death when I give up again and again My emotions that have no place to go wake me up Your flawless smile knows That it's an existence so distant that it's cruel Even though the wound that can't be healed only eats away at my heart even now I can't completely hold back my thoughts that dwell within the darkness ~~
To the edge of the dream, of the dream We met, and destiny begins to turn It's a secret that no one, no one knows about I fall, I fall, I fall And I certainly can't return anymore ~~~
"Lily..." I heard his majesty's voice. Even though I was weak, I forced myself to get up.
It includes some of my brothers. They were followed by two high councilors and four strong soldiers.
"Do you still need to watch over us until this point?" Caleb said to those who followed them.
"Aren't you going to let us be with him?" Evan also said in a loud voice. Dastan and Finn just stared at me in silence as I sat stunned with them.
"I'm sorry dear princes but we can't leave you in this place..." replied a soldier. Both councils are seriously watching us.
"What the hell?!" Caleb said angrily.
"Caleb, Evan we only have a little time.." Dastan said coldly. like Finn, Dastan also barely got down to catch my eyes. Evan and Caleb also started to sit down.
"Lily.." Evan called me first. Her voice was hoarse and at any moment I knew she was going to cry.
I tried to stand up to get closer to them. Dastan immediately extended his hand in the middle of the iron bars and when I was about to reach for it, I suddenly fell because of the chain on my feet.
Caleb punched the bars a few times as if he could do something to break them. I heard some cheap things from Finn.
I tried to reach for Dastan's hand again but our hands couldn't reach.
"Fuck! Fuck!" Caleb tried to knock on the railing a few times. Dastan kept his outstretched hands from me but my hands were the first to give up.
"I'm only here Dastan, I can't reach you anymore.." I said softly while glancing at the chain on my feet.
"Lily..." Evan called me.
"I won't even be able to touch you on my last day.." my tears fell again. I rubbed it again and again to keep my vision from blurring, I just wanted to watch them all because it was the only thing I could do at this time.
"Lily I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I didn't even do anything, I let you come to this. I let my first princess suffer like this.." Dastan said softly, unable to look at me.
"No, it wasn't your fault Dastan. It wasn't yours brother.." I have nothing to blame. This is our law, the very law I broke. and I do not regret it, I will never regret that I loved Adam.
"Lily, I really want you to run away from here. I want to get you away but I'm so weak. I'm so weak..." Caleb almost hit his head on the railing.
"I want to kill them all Lily, you don't deserve this Sister.." I began to cry even more at what Finn said.
"I love you Lily, I love you so much Sister. My sister is so useless. Sorry, sorry, sorry..." Evan said again and again. They were crying except for Dastan.
"I want to go inside.." Dastan said coldly to the councils.
"We can't allow it, Your Highness..." he answered quickly.
"What? Do you think we can do something more? even if we get inside his prison and manage to escape him, do you think we can get past the hundred vampires waiting for us outside?!" Dastan said in a loud voice.
"This is the policy dear king.." my brothers clenched their fists.
"Just one time, I'm begging you.." my mouth dropped when I saw my brother bow to the council just to enter my prison.
Not only me, even the councils were surprised by the bowing of a king. against their wishes, they granted my brother's request.
"Give me the key..." said the councilor. Caleb didn't wait any longer because he grabbed it. His hands were still shaking as he rushed to open my cage.
as soon as it opened, all my siblings rushed in and hugged me tightly. I thought that my crying and wailing would not get any louder, but when I felt the hugs of all of them, my emotions almost exploded.
"I'm scared, I'm scared to death. I thought I could accept it, I thought I could accept it. But I don't want to, I just fell in love, didn't I? I just fell in love. I'm afraid to die, I'm so afraid Dastan. Finn, Caleb, Evan. Don't let me go, just hug me, just hug me. just don't let me go. Just hug me..don't let me go.." I noticed that their shoulders were also shaking as they hugged them tightly.
"Lily..."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry Lily..I'm sorry.." Dastan said again and again. I felt his kiss on top of my head.
"I don't want to let you go Lily, I don't want to, I don't want to.." Caleb whispered.
"You know we will never get tired of hugging you Lily. I want to embrace you so tightly.." Evan whispered to me.
"Did you think you were the only one who was afraid Lily? We're so scared too..we're so scared to lose you.." Finn said emphatically making my chest tighten even more.
"Dastan, Evan, Finn, Caleb. I will miss this, I will miss your embraces, I will miss your scents. I will miss you brothers.." I said sobbing.
"It's time.." I heard a council say. My brothers ignored him instead they hugged me tightly.
"It's time!" shouted the council again.
"Bring out the king and the princes. They've been taking a long time.." even if I want to hug them for a long time, I know they will be destroyed if I insist more on not letting them go.
"It's enough, it's enough. Get out.." this is the opposite of what I wanted to say. I want them to stay with me a little longer, I want them to hug me. I want to hear their voices a little longer.
"Give us five minutes.." Dastan said coldly. The councils did not speak. My brothers and sisters separated with wet eyes, they all started to take off their clothes and hand me their pussies.
"Drink from us Lily.." I didn't waste any more time. I started to drink with Dastan, followed by Caleb's drink, followed by Evan and finally Finn.
"Thank you.." was all I said. Evan wiped the remaining blood from my lips. until they were forced out of my prison while I stared at them dumbfounded.
They insisted on staying but the soldiers were forcing them to leave.
"Your majesty, brothers and sisters..." I bowed to them in tears.
"Until once again, I promise that if I am chosen and given the chance to be reborn. I will not hesitate to be reborn suddenly as a Gazellian. You are the only king I will look up to Dastan, brother.."
"Lily.." Caleb and Evan completely lost their balance at what I said. Until I saw that their tears were falling, my siblings and I were crying at this time.
"Evan, Caleb, Finn and even Ina, Harper and Casper. remember that I love you all so much no matter where I go. Don't worry, Zen and I have always been together.."
"Lily.." they couldn't help but call my name.
"Go home to the palace, don't watch me anymore. this is my last request brothers. And you will always remember that I love you very much.."
