Fryan rushed through the halls praying that what he had heard wasnâ??t true or that he wouldnâ??t be too late. A troop of the princeâ??s personal guard was on his heels waiting for orders from him, the prince of Malichor, but none were coming. He was focused his mind reaching out to her feeling her fear and knowing in a instant that he was almost out of time. His eyes snapped shut and suddenly he appeared five feet behind the men that were attacking his love. It still wasnâ??t soon enough even as his rapier struck through the back of one of the men another brought his sword down hard cutting through the neck of the woman he loved. She was dead in a instant and in the next so were her murders. As his guards finally came around the corner they found the prince kneeling beside his love weeping openly and swearing to find the man that had ordered this and kill them.

-----

He was panting hard in bed sitting up a almost wild look in his eye. His mind calmed quickly but his breathing remained rapid as did his heart. It had been twenty years since that night and still he was plagued by nightmares of losing her. his hand combed through his thick amber gold locks pushing them back from his face. He needed to find a way to get rid of the life that he had lostâ?¦stop it from plaguing him and let him continue his current life.
 
yvaine awoke with a start on the morning of her comming out party, she was turning 18 and her family ha been talked into having this party so she might find a good suitor. instead of trying to get back to sleep, she got up and went to her dresser to get ready for the party. brushing her hair out as she tried to think of what might have woken her up she was baffled, she hadent been dreaming and she wasnet scared so what was it? she was soon to find that it was a spirit that had woken her,which now shared her body with her. as she finished brushing out her hair she heard the noises of the house begining to awaken and being preparations for the days festivities. there came a soft knock at her door and her mother came in to greet her,"good morning yvaine,did u sleep well?" she nodded her answer,to afraid to talk. "well then i do believe we should start getting u ready." her mother said and bid her stand so she could rid her of her night gown and walk her to the bath tub. yvaine was a shy and modest girl so when she removed her night gown she tried her best to hide her slender but curvy body. she had long blonde hair that fell to her butt, and vivid blue eyes that tended to change violet depending on her mood.
 
Fryan growled as he was pushed into the carriage by his advisor. He couldnâ??t believe that they were forcing him to do this. The daughter of a neighboring kingdom was just coming of age and they were having a party. He wasnâ??t impressed the kingdom was a human nation and therefore the age was a great ways away from him. He was nearly fifty but to the elves he was just getting to where he would be considered an adult. Still he found this pointless he would never love again and there was nothing that any amount of forcing the issue would do to change that.
 
yvaine stood to dry off after she was done bathing in rose pettals. she hummed softly to herself slightly nervous of what the many suitors would think of her, shy but witty girl that simply wanted somone who loved her. she was lost in thought about this nagging feeling that someone her soul knew but she didnt know was watching her, it gave her the creeps but she snapped out of it as her mother asked her which dress she was going to wear to impress her suitors today. she went over to her closet and picked out a simple but pretty dress that was a deep saphire blue and fell to the floor but bunched under her chest. it laced in the back but the middle was corset-like and lined with silver ribbon and lace. once dressed and her hair was done up it was almost dusk, now all that remianed was for her to await her orders to come down and greet her gusests. she sat in front of her fireplace thinking about what her life might be like, but then that nagging feeling returned but more prominent this time, like a voice in her head. everything is going to be fine just breath and he will be here soon. it said, who will be here?she asked, and then realised that she was talking to a voice in her head, oh no...i cant be going crazy.
 
He was sick of the carriage and so had slipped out climbing on to his beautiful white charger. His snow white cloak flowed behind him as he rode into the courtyard as the sun had just set. His sword glinted in the fading light as it hung at his side, the only thing that he had been allowed to keep from his love. The hilt was braided with gold and the rubies studding the hilt shone like fire belying the deadly nature of his sword. Swinging off of his charger his cape flipping back the inner lining deep ruby red. His shirt pure white as were his boots and pants the sword belt silver studded with rubies. He made quite the impression when the doormen came down the stairs to take his horse. He was making a point about the elven kingdom and that he really didnâ??t want to be here his advisor slipping out of the carriage moving to just behind his shoulder, â??You had to didnâ??t you?â? glaring back for a moment he said simply, â??You wanted me to impress her didnâ??t you?â? the advisor nodded, â??impress, yes but donâ??t you think you went overboard.â? The advisorâ??s objections faded as they walked into the grand ballroomâ?¦the price was one of the few that seemed underdressed all the rest just about were to bright to look at with the diamonds and gold everywhere, â??You were saying?â? â??Nevermind.â?
 
she sat in front of the fire staring into it as she waited for the orders to come down stairs to greet her suitors. sighing deeply she tried to imagine her entrance, the looks she would get from the men. smiling to herself she played with a piece of lace on her dress and stretched her body out. "mmm...i can do this" she murmured to herself and almost jumped at the sharp rap at the door. "c-come in." she yelped out and stood as her friend tatanya entered. "tat! what r u doing here?" she smiled and hugged her tightly. "im so gald u came. i need the support." who is this?the voice in her mind suddenly asked and she rubbed her temples in an attempt to rid herself of it. tatanya took her hand and led her to the door, "come yvain its time." they walked out the door down the hall towards the stairs as the fan fair started and gracefully the glided down the grand stair case. immediatly the splendor took over but one in particular caught her attention, a handsome young man dressed almost all in white.
 
He sighed as the group of people milled and chatted many of them casting suspicious glances at the two elves. He could care less what people thought all he wanted was to get out of here as fast as etiquette would allow. As the fan fair was given his eyes seemed to be drawn upward toward the top of the stairs. He couldnâ??t keep his mouth closed the woman was stunning her dress worked perfectly with her skin tone and eyes, but even more then thatâ?¦ he touched his advisorâ??s arm, â??Am I going crazy?â? the advisor was as stunned as Fryan, â??If you are so am Iâ?¦thatâ??s Alethia!â?
 
as she stood at the top of the stairs she looked around the room and finnally her eyes came back to rest on that one particular young man. she blushed ever so lightly as she noticed that he was looking at her as well, but then again so was every other person in the room. she put on a big smile and decended down the stairs slowly. once at the bottom she kept ahold of her friends arm and the greeted one person at a time. she spoke softly and tried to avoid the young man for the most part,for some reason she felt slightly uneasy around him,yet like she knew him.
 
He wasnâ??t hurt by her avoiding him in fact he would almost rather be able to leave and not meet her. it was going to be so hard to face the exact image of his lost love and not do anything. He moved around the room in such a way that he would be one of the last people that she would have to talk to. His advisor was still in a state of shock and not being able to pull himself out of it, Fryan led him around the room without too much trouble. Finally he knew that he would have to greet her, taking a deep breath he moved forward looking into her eyes offering his hand to her bowing as he neared her, â??A pleasure to meet you my lady.â? His eyes once again locked with hers and he could almost see the same woman that Alethia had been and it was hard not to just move forward and kiss her there on the spot.
 
she made her way around the room graciously greeting all those that were presented before her. she smiled sweetly and tried to see past all of the splendor so she could find one she might actaully like. trying to see everyone but that one man she sighed inwardly as she finally had to greet him,but as she got to see him close up, her breath caught in her throat and she smiled as he took her hand. "t-the pleasures all mine." she stammered and noticed that for somereason everything in her was saying that she remembered him and his touch. "my lord, may i be so bold, ive never heard of u." she inquired.
 
His lips gently brushed the back of her hand in the common gesture of a man greeting a woman. As he came up his eyes locked with hers and never left them the entire conversation. â??Forgive me, I am Fryan king of Beruna we are neighbors my lady I am shocked that you do not know the name of one of your closest allies?â? he was as a princess she should have known who he was though there was a chance that she just didnâ??t know his face.
 
she felt her face flush in the slightest at his response, but she was also noticing that he never let his gaze wander as he talked to her, it always stayed focused on her eyes. she smiled at him and hid her face ever so slightly behind her fan from embarasment,"oh im terribly sorry i didnt recognise you, for you see i have heard of you but i have never seen you before. my mother and father did not allow me to meet many people before now." she explained and then suddenly the voice came back. u must make sure u see him again. it said, what? why? i dont know him,it would be improper for me to see him again unless he was courting me.but i know him so it wont matter.the voice said. it was confusing her and giving her quite the headache, her hand on her temple she sighed and tried to find tatanya, "im terribly sorry sir, but for somereason im not feeling the greatist." then she thought she did want to see him agian so she asked, "would u mind escorting me out to the garden as i cant seem to find my friend?"
 
He looked at her face as she backed up seeming to want to get away for a moment. He relaxed as she asked him to escort her to the garden and offered his arm to her guiding her out of the busy hall under many jealous stares from the other men. He smiled as he took her out on to the balcony turning so his back was leaning against the railing. â??I would be glad to if only to get alone with you for a few moments more.â?
 
she smiled and took his offered arm with grace. she felt the stares from the others in the room and blushed lightly at his words. "oh? and may i inquire as to why that is good sir?" she asked politely. she folded her hands in front of her and smiled shyly at him. he looked so handsome standing there just leaning casually against the railing.
 
He smiled shrugging, â??wouldnâ??t any man wish to get alone with a woman as beautiful as you?â? he smiled his hand reaching out brushing his finger over her cheek smiling a soft sultry smile that had always made his lost love melt at the sight of it. â??Besides looking at the jealous faces that have been watching us from the door they wish that they were me.â?
 
she blushed at his words and lowered her gaze, "why thank you good sir." she murmured. she gasped softly as she felt his hand brush lightly across her cheek. looking up into his eyes she smiled softly and nearly fell right there at the look on his face, her knees went wobbly and her hands shook. "really? i hadent noticed." she teased him. a small smile teased around her lips and she moved to stand next to him, "if i may be so bold, i feel as if we have met before m'lord."
 
He chuckled at her teasing then looked into her eyes as she mentioned that it seemed she knew him from somewhere. He chuckled again looking deeper into his eyes, â??Maybe we have, who knows what we may have been in another life?â? he laughed as though he was being silly even with her looking just like his lost love. â??I will say this, you do look like someone I once knew.â? He regretted saying that almost the instant it was out and turned looking out over the garden hoping she wouldnâ??t pursue the thought.
 
she blushed lightly at his deep gaze,it was as if he was trying to see into her very soul. she listened to his theory and turned in over in her mind trying to see if it fit. "i see, this could work." she smiled and laughed softly until he lightly spoke of someone he once knew. she wanted to persue what he ment but he turned away and she knew when she wasnet to interfere so she simply put a comforting hand on his arm. "i am sorry if i have over stepped the line." she murmured and turned to walk inside so he could be with his thoughts.
 
He turned watching her walk away. His mind traveling over the past that he had with Alethia looking over it and wishing that it hadnâ??t been cut so short. His eyes traveled with her around the room not wanting to take his eyes off her for a moment. Every time that a young prince came up to her making advances toward her, he growled softly already feeling like he had a claim on her.
 
she chatted and flirted lightly with many of the other young lords in the room that afternoon but she couldnt keep her mind off of him. she thought about what he had said, but it just made no sense, what had happend to make him react so strange. she shook her head and tried to find her friend. "tatanya...i need to ask a favor of you. will u see that the young man out on the balcony gets this message." she whispered in her friends' ear that he should meet her later in the back garden at sunset.
 
He stood there watching the proceeding having no desire to join in on the human customs of interaction. He waited watching finally another girl came out to him looking him over, â??The princess wanted me to tell you something.â? She looked over him little more sizing him up to be sure he was safe, â??She wanted to meet you out behind the garden at sunset, you had better not disappoint her.â? she turned to go back as he called out, â??Tell her I will be there.â?
 
tatanya came back to her and whispered the message and what he had said to her, natalya smiled and flirted with even more vigor to see the reaction she would get out of him later. thinking to herself while the party continued, she wondered if there was something more than what she though, shaking her head she sighed and stiffled a yawn. "mmm...do excuse me good sir, i am afraid i must retire to my chamber for some much needed rest." she excused herself and took her friend by the arm to head upstairs. "im so nervous, what do i say to him?" she asked her friend but just then the little voice decided to come back. hush now and make urself presentable for him.u must talk to him. the voice urged her on. so she got into her room and made sure she still looked nice before donning her long black cloak and slipping down into the gardens to wait for him.
 
He had followed her throughout the night with his eyes his heart aching every time she flirted with one of the men. He finally had walked out going to the garden and waiting for her knowing that sooner or later she would come out to him. His mind went back over the nights that he had spent with Alethia hours spent cuddling and kissing all over her body. He had to put those out of his mind or he would start a major incident between their countries but still she looked just like her every curveâ?¦he wanted her.
 
the night air was crisp but wonderful on her flushed cheeks, she was nervous about meeting this stranger but she was drawn to him for some reason. her cloak whipped around her legs but she kept to the shadows, afriad of what awaited her. almost imediatly she noticed him sitting waiting for her,murmuring softly from the shadows she called to him. "you showed."
 
He didnâ??t turn to face her knowing that there was a chance that if faced by him she would run like a dear in a hunterâ??s marks. â??Of courseâ?¦you knew I would didnâ??t you?â? he patted the seat beside him still not turning to look at her. â??Just as I knew you wouldnâ??t change your mind and not showâ?¦we have a connection that seems to transcend time almost.â?
