Annalise sprung herself onto her bed, tears in her eyes. She repeatedly smashed her fist against the pillow.

Annalise gritted her teeth, "That bastard has no respect for women, what a vulgar piece of-"
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19o3XkUXQn
"M-M'lady, you run quite fast..." Emonie scurried toward Annalise. "Look, the prince didn't mean what he said. When anger takes control of him, he loses track of himself." Emonie stroked Annalise's crimson hair. "He's really kind once you get to know him."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4n05WvtYQ
Annalise cried out, "I don't want to get to know him! I just want to go home to my mother and continue my life the way it was."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3BZbL5UA5
"I wish I could help you but frankly, there's nothing I can do."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7oiFvztDk
A haunting melody danced around the walls of the castle. Nathaniel played his organ to let out his anger. Music had always helped him release his anger.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTR0BfnmSaJ
Annalise jumped out of her bed, "What is that noise? It's beautiful!"
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkCYYmw8TD
Emonie chimed, "Talented, isn't he? Prince Nathaniel has been playing the organ since he was a 4. He's a remarkable man, I dare to say."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHHCqRi3O3
"Yeah, yeah..." Almost as if she were put under a trance, Annalise followed the trail of the melody. The music brought her back to the Grand Hall where the prince was left alone, playing the wonderous tune.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtiXBJbuj9
He looked up and jumped almost off of his stool.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8ElyRMNDz
"Ah, Annalise... I wanted to apologize for what I said to you earlier." He stood up from the organ and stepped closer to her.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aGv6zbGX9
She closed her eyes and demanded, "Play."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXXkHr7DFr
"Pardon?"
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wZzesLlsf
"You heard me, play." Annalise pointed at the wooden organ.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMptUfbd2W
"I wanted to apologize-"
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAUJyQ9Xny
"If you play me the melody of before, I shall forgive your cruel words."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWK7Z6DuUfd
Nathaniel tensed up,"Oh, of course. For you, M'lady..."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ynv7bjuw8
He sat back down at the organ and began to flutter his fingers across the keys. Music flooded through Annalise's ear. A haunting, heavenly melody danced around his finger tips. When he stopped playing, he grinned over at Annalise.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSga6N0aJgS
"So... Did you enjoy my music? I actually wrote the piece that I just played. Not to brag or anything..." Nathaniel smirked at a slightly blushing Annalise.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefMtqkXwh3
"Y-you are forgiven." She faced her body away from him.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpdICulwcA
The sweet aroma of honey tickled at his nose. It was getting harder and harder to control himself.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3EjSpYISg
Annalise tousled her hair behind her ear. Nathaniel couldn't control his urges anymore. He wrapped his arms around Annalise's waist. Out of shock, she froze in place. Nathaniel circled around her neck with his tongue, his fangs slowly forming out of his gums.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEzuFDTyDp
Annalise's voice shook, "Y-your magesty, what in the world are you doing?"
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwJIizBsnQ
Almost instantly, he had regain conciousness. Reality smacked him in the face. Nathaniel panicked and pushed Annalise away.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbFQAEEsqh
"I... I'm sorry." He couldn't look her in the eyes. Out of shame, he turned and walked away.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgo66NGFULa
"Wait, thank you for the music..." Annalise tugged against his blue, linen tunic. "It amazes me that you wrote such a beautiful masterpiece."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5FOwHg24A
Nathaniel spoke in a monotone voice, "Thank you, I'm sorry but I really must be going..."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUY03cCM4b7
He walked away, leaving Annalise alone with her thoughts.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQXcHsShI0
She rubbed her neck, "What the bloody hell just happend?"
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsnhWWa1ag
Dominic stomped over to her, "Lady Annalise, may I have a word with you?"
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfVbkvSKl5
"Oh sure! Actually there's something I need to say to you also." Annalise trailed along side him.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXudS6ObZbf
Dominic led her into a large, magnificent garden full of bright and colorful flowers and other plants.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡik17wRhSa8
"I have to tell you something and you must promise to keep it confidential. The prince must never find out about this." Dominic frowned at his thoughts.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYgEX55AZi
Annalise sighed, "Sounds kind of sketchy to me, I will need a bit more information before I promise you anything."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQ0zuWDQ5Z
Dominic rolled his eyes at her, "Very well... tomorrow is Prince Nathaniel's birthday and his father, the king will be surprising him with his arrival."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmlrRpIfmM
"That's sweet. A father-son reunion!" Her eyes lit up.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTThf0Lg7z
He shook his head, "No M'lady, His Majesty and his son don't have the best relationship."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCnwafdnpz
She asked, "Oh... then why must we keep his arrival a secret?"
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFC7NzUo4e
"If he finds out before hand, he won't ever leave his room. Him and his father need to patch up their relationship." He patted her shoulder, "I count on you to help me."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HIld3cJWM
"You really care about the prince, don't you?" She nodded her head to him.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHVtc1RALn
Dominic smiled, "He's like a brother to me."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDwPAps8Kf
"That's really sweet..." Annalise couldn't hide the smile that crept onto her face.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyzQLidxHn
Trying to change the topic, "Oh, that's right. Wasn't there something you wanted to talk about with me regarding the prince?"
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1qvXL4jhP
"Well... yes. The weirdest thing happend. I was listening to him play the organ-" She was cut off.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeAvCjNBYC
"Oh yes, Nathaniel is quite the prodigy."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4p8vs2cz9
"Anyway... when he stopped playing, he started acting strange."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUd0aUNdur
"How strange?" He asked.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6RpZ4huJ1
"The prince tightened his grip around me... I was so shocked that I couldn't move. And then..." She touched her neck. "Oh nevermind, it's too embarrassing. You wouldn't believe me anyway..."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTQGlgzMtp
Dominic's eyes widened.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIv8UhFV5V
"Are you okay Dominic?" She was worried.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqn5LVvmpBn
His voice trailed for a moment, "Oh, yeah... I'm perfectly fine, you on the other hand have a crazy imagination!" He forced out a couple of convincing laughs. "I think what you need is some sleep and you'll be fine."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gnXsM3fa4
Annalise's stomach gurgled.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgcw3n6CcX
"Forgive me..." She bowed her head.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqbQ0nhwZX
"I'll let the cooks know that dinner will be served for two this evening." He lightly smirked at her.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkS4UBbtO0a
She nudged his shoulder, "I couldn't impose. I don't mean to be a bother to you."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUa14KdvvR
"How could you be a bother? I'm not the one cooking. Plus, what kind of man would I be if I let a poor lady go without food. That would be most ungentleman like." He pursed his lips teasingly.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9COenGcIwV
Annalise giggled, "Whatever you say Dominic."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhat40GuxJ
When Annalise went upstairs to get ready for dinner, Dominic barged into Nathaniel's quarters.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrKT78gt80
He flung the door open and announced, "Prince, we have a problem."
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCxxwsSQsu
Nathaniel sprawled on his bed, with his tunic tossed on the floor and his top half buttons of his shirt were unbuttoned.
657Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPqsKtrbMh
He groaned with his hand over his face, "Don't you think I know that?"
