Read The Kings Soulmate :: Chapter 1 Pt.2

A while later the crown prince awakens, disoriented and enraged. “Where the fuck am I?” He looks around, seeing he’s directed his rage at no one. He was locked up in a dark and empty cell with an iron door and concrete walls. He walks up to the door beginning to pound his fist. “Let me out!” He hissed. Suddenly a group of men rush toward the door, unlocking it and pushing it open. Three of them grab him, despite both his hands and feet being tied. The other men stood guard at the door, and then a woman walks in. She’s dressed in a gaudy robe with many layers of clothing. She had a maroon dress with rubies adorning the top layer. Her lurid layers of makeup making her look even more ostentatious. “Well, look who we have here!” She speaks with a hideous voice, high pitched, and nasally. “The lovely, the gorgeous, Crown prince, Ri-ver Sal-a- zar~” She individually pronounced and paused between the syllables of his name. Once she finished, she cackles. River cringes at her attempted evil laugh. “Who the hell are you?” His anger dissipating into disgust instead of rage. She stops her laugh and is momentarily shocked. She stomps her foot like a child. “Who am I...?” She pauses, before anger and frustration quickly take over her expression. “WHO AM I!!” She draws out the ‘I” before she turns to one of the guards who flinches. “Tell him who I am!” She crosses her arms and the guard nervously turns, clearing his throat. “This is Princess Marie Natalia of the Natalie kingdom.” The prince realizes now.

Oh. No wonder, she’s dressed so ghastly. This is the most self-centered kingdom of all.

He thinks only of her presentation, forgetting the kidnapping part of this situation. His thoughts are then interrupted by Marie. “Anyways, I have decided to kidnap you and keep you prisoner for a while!” She grins and River, “Why is that?” Not really wanting her to answer his question, he yawns trying to make his disinterest obvious. Marie however, not seeing this, lights up and begins to explain. “Oh! Splendid of you to ask! I have recently found that the second prince, your brother Malcom. Is my soulmate!” River reels backwards in shock the guard clamping his arms tighter. “What?” He screams at her as his vision blurs. Marie smiles, “Oh yes! Me and Malcom are in love. We decided that we would hide you here, and act out our plan!” She claps giddily, jumping up and down. The crown prince stomach twists in knots, “I don’t believe you. My brother would never agree to this.” She snickers to herself and then Malcom come up from behind, slinging his arm around her side. He chuckles, “Dear brother! I see your in quite the situation!” The pair laughs and Rivers heart stops in his chest.

My own brother?! How could my own brother betray me! Kill our father and kidnap me?!

The crown prince stands despite the guards pulling him downwards. “What the hell does you little plan have to do with me?” He practically growls at the two. The second princes grins, explaining, “With father dead and you gone. I’ve become heir to the throne. When I become the king I’ll marry my love and we’ll rule over both countries.” Rivers blood begins to boil, but before doing anything rash, he tries pleading with his brother. “Malcom, you know that I would support you accepting your soulmate, whoever it was, that is out of our control. But we both know linking with such a kingdom would gain our land all kinds of enemies and debts. You can’t-“ He is interrupted when Marie leaves the room, seemingly bored with his reaction. Malcom sighs, “Brother, there is no way around it, I will do as I please and have you killed by tomorrow. Now I have to deal with her, so long.” He leaves the room and the guard do as well, running out after letting go. After a few moments River finally reacts. “ What the-“, he pause and then screams. “WHAT THE FUCK

MALCOM?! YOU CANNOT JUST IGNORE ME! YOU CANT KILL ME! I AM THE CROWN PRINCE FOR FUCKS SAKE! FUCK YOU!” He screams and punch’s the walls and door, desperately wishing for something in the room to destroy.
