"Do you know his name?" I asked and she slowly nodded.



"Everyday that I have those dreams I slowly learned who he is. His name was Knight and my dreams are not really so on and so fourth. It makes me dizzy every time I wake up. She had this woman who calls him Master and she serves him whenever and wherever he is. She was beautiful but there was sadness and pain in her eyes but she always cover it with her cloth scarf. She was jealous but even tough she is grateful because she is always with his Master. That small thing she is thankful though. I saw it as an unrequited love. But as to what I know she is...." she didn't finished her statement making me look at her intensely. I need to hear the last words h=in her sentence. I want to know it.





"She is what?"





She didn't answer instead she look at me intensely.





"She is what?" I repeat my question again.





"The bastard's bride."







Hades and Helios have the same father, but not the same mother. Hades was the son of a noblewoman who was their father's first wife; others claim that Hades' mother was the king's first love despite their different social status; his mother was a peasant, and the entire palace considered her a concubine, which was perfectly fine with her. It doesn't matter what they called her at the time because she was used to it; as long as the king and she love each other, they can conquer all. However, tragedy strikes.Hades mother died mysteriously and some says she killed herself but at a young age of Hades he can tell that someone killed her, and it is no other than the queen who is in love with their father, the mother of Helios. It was all planned that night, the queen pay someone to kill Hades mother. The queen Zabeth was jealous of Helena, Zabeth was in love of the king but the king always ignores her presence and when she confesses her love to him he had got cold to her and every time, she announces a meeting he was not attending and only his personnel was present which makes her mad and planned all of that but after that the king and queen got married and Zabeth also planned that he makes the kingdom of the king scourge until the king begged for help, and being a king he would not just ignore his people and die in hunger. So the king took all of his courage and knelt his knee and asked for her hand for marriage, exactly what the queen had planned. But later on someone poisoned her, an assailant that until now nobody knows who. The two deaths were still a mystery.



But unknown to all the king had a first son. It was an accident because he was tempted. A temptation of a young prince. His father, the king, learned about this and soon to search for the woman who was then known that pregnant. The king itself sentenced the woman to death but she begged her life and plead the king to spare her life together with her womb. She plead that she would flew away to that place and hid together with her womb. The king surprisingly agreed because of the innocent and beautiful face of the woman. He does not have the heart to kill such a person with that face. No wonder his son got captured by the woman. The next day after that encounter the woman was nowhere to be seen exactly what she had said to the king. The king itself wanted her that he doesn't even understand the reason why and he hated himself for that. Years passed and the king died so the prince was now the king.

As the years passed that woman who bear the first child of the king was named Knight. They lived in a far far away land away from the town. Even though the woman learned that the king had died she didn't have the courage to go back to the town where she lived but her son, Knight, wanted to take venture to the town and live his dreams. Surely because she was too old to guard her son and she understands that her son also have a life she let him go. But she only had one condition and that is to find the two princes who is his step-brothers and befriend them. Knight was wondering why does her mother wanted him to befriend high class bone rank but it was his mother's wish so he will try his best to do it.



And that is Knight, the bastard of them all.





"The bastard's bride," I uttered under my breath which hit a pang. I wanted to remember a thing but it seems like impossible. It was like unfamiliar but it is within me. It's a part of me but I can't spell it out. It is something like there is a person who is attached with me for a lifetime that I don't know.



"Are you okay?" she asked which makes my sense came back.



"Yes, I just remembered something. Okay, I need you to pack your things right now. We're going put of town," I said which make her look at me questioningly.



"Why? Where?" she asked as crossed her arms on me.



"I hate questions so please pack now," I said and slumped my body into her bed. It feels warm and soft. This is how I like it. It feels like my body is tired.



"I won't pack until you tell me why and where are we going," she fumed which makes me irritated but I choose to close my eyes and take a deep breath into this girl.



Yes, she is Antarteces, the woman who gets into my nerves. I can't help but to smile at that thought and I hope she didn't get to see it.





"Faster, pack your thing or I'll leave."
