She Prince

XingXing, mother has not given you a perfect life after the death of your father , I couldn’t even protect you. As a mother I’ve not completed my duty even though that I wanted you to be happy and have a life like other girls I couldn’t give you that. Your father always told me that you will grow up as a courageous girl like him and sure he is right. He did everything he could in order to protect us and the people but I’ve done nothing in return for him. Life is about sacrificing but I do not want you to sacrifice anymore. Mother is begging you to leave the state now, don’t sit for the examination because we have been fooled. I married the man who killed my husband brutally and I cannot forgive myself for doing it. You lost your father, your brother and your best friend same as that many other people lost their loved ones because of him, because of his greed. I don’t know whether what I’m going to do will end this or not but I decided to take back for your father, for the love he gave us. I want you to stay safe, don’t come back here for anything, I gave Wales all the silver stones, take it and live peacefully, live away from the chaos. You have experienced a lot in your life but I could do nothing but cry in the night for you. It’s all his plan, it’s all your step father’s plan and you are the main plot in it. Please do this for me, go away and live your life, find your love and stay happy. No matter where mother is you will always have my blessings and love.

I’m sorry for putting your life in stake and now I want you to step away from it. But don’t forget that mom will always love you.

My daughter XingXing please don’t come back to the mansion, even to see me.

Lord Wen lifts up his hand moves his palm back and forth gesturing the guards to get out of the dining room. The door closes every single sound and movements makes Mrs Qin panic. She stops eating and faces her husband who has been staring at her a smirk playing on his lips. Her hands begins to tremble but she covers it up by clutching her palms under the short table.

“My dear wife you seem suspicious,” he grins leaning forward taking a clearer look of her when she gulps down her saliva down her dry throat. She looks straight into his eyes making sure that he doesn’t find out anything.

” I…,” She stutters when he gets up from his seat and pulls her hand gently asking her to get up and she obeys him.

Snaking his left arm around her waist he pulls her to his chest when she looks up at him horrified his smile grows bigger. Holding her chin rashly with his right hand he brings his face closer to hers, his every touch disgusting her. She stays there rooted not being able move as terror is eating her up bit by bit. She balls her palms her nails digging into her skin taking a deep breath in internally, she pushes him when his lips brushed on hers.

“I knew you would do that,” Lord wen laughs aloud manically his eyes glues on her like a tiger looking at its prey.

“Don’t you feel sorry for poisoning your husband,” his laughter stops immediately his tone showing that he is in rage, he grits his teeth keeping a step forward while Mrs Qin looks at him with wide eyes in horror.

“You’ve overheard something which you shouldn’t,” he keeps another step forward making her to step back his voice coming out dangerously low, venom dripping from every word.

Her eyes never leaves him as her body stopped functioning, she goes down on her knees immediately her eyes beginning to pool up with tears making her vision blur. Everything in her mind was not about her situation right now all she thought about was her daughter hoping that she leaves as she requested.

“You’re a monster,” she growls under her heavy breath.

“A monster,” the air gets filled up with his nasty rough laughter, bending low he stares down at her ” Yes I am,” he states and steps behind taking a look at her figure he chuckles.

“Yes, I am a monster who killed his father, his brother and took advantage of his own son’s death,” he turns around and looks at her again while she glares at him her eyes sliding to the right watching the knife on the table “They just didn’t know to protect themselves,” he turns around looking at the sword on the stand “The world will belong to me,”

Mrs Qin takes the knife slowly making sure no noise is made, getting up in a flash she moves the knife to his neck, her eyes widens when he grips her wrist and pushes her behind making her to fall on the ground. Standing on her feet quickly she rushes to him again trying to stab him but he pulls the knife from her hold and stabs the sharp blade into her stomach with no hesitation.

She lets out a sound when her mouth opens to get enough oxygen in and falls on her knees holding her stomach where the blood is oozing out uncontrollably, she was not afraid of death as long as her daughter stays alive but her heart clenched when she heard the guard from the door.

She grasp his leg with her blooded palms stopping him from keeping another step, he looks down at her his eyes showing no mercy to her begging eyes.

“Please leave her,” her voice comes out low “Please..,” she grips his leg harder begging him “She did nothing,” her voice comes out weak as a whisper.

“Nothing? Don’t worry you can rest in peace because I won’t lay a finger on her until she completes the exam,” he sits down removing her hands from his leg he buries it into his large ones “You don’t have to fight when you’re weak,” he says in a low voice, moving his one hand away slowly he picks the empty bowl from the table behind him. “Pl… ease do. n’t h.. u. rt.. her,” she quivers gulping down in difficulty, her body goes weak for the loss of blood, she bites her lower lip to hold in her scream as the stinging pain is getting unbearable.

“After all you tried to poison me,” he grits his teeth never loosing eye contact with her giving her hope with his behaviour.

Mrs Qin lets out a scream when the ceramic bowl came in contact with her skin on the left side of her neck, he places his palm over the broken piece which pierced in her muscles. His lips forms to a smile when he gives pressure on it making it get into deep in her skin not caring the wound which is forming in his hand. Her movements stop along with her heavy breathing when darkness captures her, the room captures silence her nerveless eyes staring at him.

“You shouldn’t have thought of killing me,” he pulls her motionless body to a hug “I’ve wanted to keep you alive with me till the end but you…,” He pushes her body on the floor ruthlessly “You took the wrong move,”, getting up he walks out to see the guards by the gate.
