Clara was breathless by the time they parted even still she could only focus on the man before her, not the crowd in the court, nothing. She found her eyes scanning his features, memorizing every plane, every small scar, the tininess detail. She could only smile.
âI love you, Clara Allyrion.â He said suddenly, and Clara felt her heart leap into her throat with a small gasp. He loved her? Her mind raced as she thought back to everything that transpired between them, how he was possessed by the demon that killed her father, how she was a prisoner. how he used his magic to save her from her body, how he held her when the Winter King haunted her dreams. In that time she did, she realized with a slow smile, fall in love with him, as twisted and bizzare as it was. "I--"
Suddenly, Winter burst through the Great Hall, windows shattering, sending shard flying through the hall, impaling those unfortunate enough to not to get out of the way. Clara stood up, eyes wide as a large creature, shaped like a man, walked in, skin white as snow, eyes black as pitch. He wore little clothing, just enough to keep him modest and his hands were coated red.
Fear paralzed her. "You..." She breathed before his black eyes turned on her. "Winter Girl..." He said, his voice echoed in her mind, as well ad throughout the hall. "Come," He said and as if her legs forgot she was in charge, she started walking toward him.
Meanwhile, A cloacked figure dropped down on the balcony behind Robin Azura. "Azura," said the distinctly female voice. "The Fae sent me, I was told to find you." She said and removed her scarf and hood revealing a pretty green skinned woman with dark brown eyes, and ink black hair, her face was dotted with blood as if she'd been fighting already. She looked into the castle behind him and clicked her teeth before leaning back on to the wall and sighed. " I am Hollow and we are about to be in a world of shit," She said. just as glass shattered inside of the castle.
