16 Chapter 16 (1/2)

Wearing a white cape she covered her face with cloth as she ran through the corridor in hope of sneaking without anyone's notice. She took every step smooth as silk. Though she ran bare foot to avoid any noise her heart was producing song of melancholy __ as if singing in her father's death !

Her eyes mourning and shedding tears continuously. She thought of nothing and of no one. Striding through the left corridor which she thought would lead her to the main gate of castle, reached the jade garden. Heard the thump of foot steps and noise of silver armour, the guards were on round perhaps searching her. She stepped back but at once hid her behind the bushes a few steps far. To avoid any kind of scream she placed her hand on mouth even stopped breathing for some moments until the guards went some far !

She just wanted to escape from these weird people who brought her here in this strange place, where everyone was calling her a princess. She didn't wanted to be any , didn't wanted to stay with the murderers of her father. Fearing that they'd kill her too, she sneaked from her bedroom in hope of an escape !

Took a deep breath when the guards went out of sight. She stood up and peeked through the bushes to a.n.a.lyse where was the exit.

”Trying to escape my love ?”

The guy whispered in her ear from back, who appeared from nowhere. But was leaning close to her face, his eyes full of questions and mysteries.

She pushed him back with all force and ran to the other side in fear. Frightened__terror was on her mind along with the view of her father's dead body.

Her legs didn't stop she ran fast as she could. Far away as her heart said. Stopped when saw two men standing in front of her. Not armed, not giving dangerous vibes but still they're perhaps involved in murder !

”Do you know how much we got worried upon your disappearance  ?”

The one with long white beard said.

Saavi leaped back to run backwards when saw Ashton standing there, hands folded with a stern look on face.

”She doesn't care master Valos as we don't mean anything to her, our efforts to protect her doesn't matter to her, am I right your highness ?”

He was aggressive in his tone as he mocked upon her act.

Saavi argued back with courage in a loud voice.

”Yes why do I care about you when you all are murderers of my father !”

”Father....pftt ! The man standing there is your father Saavi not the one who died.”

Ashton pointed out towards king Salvatore who was standing besides master Valos__gloomy, seeing his only daughter being rebellious.

”Tch.....you're a liar. And you're the one who killed my father. Let me go. Otherwise I'll call police !”

Saavi was still not in the position to listen to anything or anyone. She believed in what she saw earlier.

”Listen to me young lady, you don't want to believe that I'm your father then don't. But as a king of this kingdom I order you to marry prince Ashton.”

King Salvatore burst out in rage. He wanted to replace the original princess with that fake one as soon as possible. Before the situation worsens.

”I'm not going to marry that animal !

He's a murderer, you want me to marry such an evil person. What kind of king are you ?  Don't you have any sense of justice !”

Saavi crossed her limits which provoked king Salvatore to take a strict action.

”Guards take this disobedient lady to her chamber !”

He yelled as the guards appeared just in a blink.

They stood.

As she was a princess and their king's daughter. Confused upon the first order they stood still for a second one !

”What are you waiting for ? I said take her.

& prince Ashton tell the maid servants to get her ready for marriage ceremony  !”

King Salvatore ordered again.

One of the guards leaped forward to take her by arm when she cried taking a few steps back. The guard tried again when Saavi pushed him back with both hands and__

And a flash of beam appeared which threw the guard 6 steps away from her. Though her magic wasn't that perfect and strong because of suppression but at that moment it came out.

Terrified __Saavi looked upon her hands.

”My lord !”

Master Valos stared towards king Salvatore in hope that now Saavi would understood that she was one of them.

”Ww....what have you done to me , you freaks !”

But she wasn't thinking that way.

”What do you mean ?  We haven't done anything, you stupid girl. You're one of us and your magical powers are coming out naturally.”

Prince Ashton yelled.

”It can't be. I'm a normal person. You must have tried something on me !”

Saavi shouted gazing at her hands.
