The ultimate love taboo

The night is still, unmoving, and for those who are unfortunate enough to meet me the night is also unforgiving. The night air is full of the present aroma of blood, both new and stail. "you monster" i herd a woman say as she clung to the mangled body of her dead husband. "Well, well, well, what do we have here? A little lamb late for theslaughter?" I replied in a taunting tone. Her face was covered in a combo of sweat, blood and tears, her hair was singed by the fire that was no doubt burning her home to the ground, her cloths where ripped to shreds and her hands stained in the blood of her husband. Walking closer to her I could see the veins in he neck, and her heart beat was at an extremely elevated rate. Grabbing her by the coler of her dress i ripped her from the ground making her drop her lifeless husband to the ground with a soft thud on the grass. Too bad for you darling, iv already had my fill. I said while looking over her shoulder at the other members of my court, turning her around so that she could see them too, I could feel every muscle in her body tense up in fear as they started to walk closer to us. No!! Please for the love of God no!! She screamed, pleaded and begged. Now, now, is that any way to act when we are being so merciful? Chear up, you will be reunited with your husband very soon. After tossing her to the ground In front of them and watching as they all drained her of every last bit of her blood, I turned my attention to the town. It burned high into the sky, making the shadows of the trees dance in the light of the blazing inferno, the sound of screaming people had come to a stop, leaving the night in a deadly silence. Days past since then, we returned to our castle in Greenvill Hikes, east of crystal river. here we where hidden within the forest, some people took to calling it "The forest of no return" a decent name giving the fact that no one would come back...alive that is if they went to far. After all, never know when we might be hungry. For the most part I just kept to myself in my chamber, I didn't see the point in mingling with the others, their conversations where beyond boring, talk of politics and the everyday gossip. If I had a penny for every time I herd, "Oh, did you hear?" those words alone are enough to make my skin crawl. All I wanted was for night to come, because then, I could do what I do best...sneak out and go across the river south of here. Where I can be alone with my thoughts. " Cassandra " I herd the high kings right hand man call, or as I like to call him " The high kings lap dog." He opens my chamber door with out ever once knocking, typical. " What is it now, Valcore? I already did my daily chores " I said while giving him my usual " f**k off " loook. After clearing his throat, " Yes well, his Hines is calling for your presence in his chambers " he said while giving me his " you know what he wants look " slamming my hands down on my desk I stand up with a snap. " Are you serious, right now!! How many times do I have to tell him no!?!? Why can't he just get the f*****g hint and leave me the f**k alone?!?! He looks at me with stone cold eyes, " You know thats not going to happen. He won't stop until you give in and give him what he wants. " With that I just rolled my eyes and walked past him out of my chambers, down the hall heading towards the grand hall, past the throne room, up the round stair case. There is where the massive double doors to his chambers. I stood there contemplating on just turning around and going back to my chambers and saying f**k him, but I didn't. Instead I raised my hand and knocked on his doors and waited. "Come in " I herd him call from the other side. Apon entering, he looked up from his paper work that was spread out all across his oak wood desk, " Ah Cassandra, good your here. Have you given anymore thought to my proposal? " I looked at him with my most unfazed face i could muster, " I have actually, and the answer is still no. I have no interest in becoming your wife. I've told you this at least a hundred times, my answer is and always will be, no. So, when are you going to get that through your head and leave me alone?" He looked at me with a very dissatisfied look and dropped his pen down on the desk. " I see, you do understand the benefits of becoming my wife don't you? you would have the respect that a woman such as yourself deserves. Is that not what you want, I implore you to reconsider your answer. " By this time I've become annoyed, placing my hands on my hips, I look him dead in his eyes and say " I would rather burn in the light of the sun before I ever agree to become your wife!!" With that I turned around and stormed back to my chambers, open the lid to my coffin, and go to sleep and wait for the sun to set. I awake to the sound of the grandfather clock that I have in the far corner of my chamber, pushing the lid of my coffin I desover right away that it won't open, so I try pushing harder, but still, nothing. " What in the f**k!?! " Saying this out loud i hear someone's voice in my chamber. " You should have reconsidered my offer Cassandra, such a pitty, now I have no choice. You are hereby banished from this court, and are to be sealed away in dormers tumb. " With that, I herd the sound of the high kings footsteps walk towards my chamber door, and say " Remove her at once! " With that my coffin was picked up and carried out of the castle, and transported to dormers tumb.
