The Crown Prince's Love

My mother grabbed my hand and rubbed it gently. "I am sure everything will be fine, and somehow you might be able to help the queen and the king gain control of everything. I believed it would help them and everyone else, so don't beat yourself around what had happened," she tapped me on the back.

"your mother is right," my father's voice sounded from the room's entrance. "if you are here sulking over what happened without actually doing something, then you are in the wrong. If you truly want to help Randy, you should be with him," he said, smiling at me. "Be with him, son, and settle whatever is happening. If another miracle is going to happen, I am sure it will come from you two because you have gone through a lot."

I sniffled and nodded at my father. "I am glad," I moved closer to the both of them and engulfed them in a tight hug. "Thank you for accepting me for who I am," I said.

They hugged me back, and for a few seconds, we were In each other's arms; soon, they let go of me, and I could leave the house. When I got outside, large reporters gathered in front of our home, waiting for me to show. The instance that they all saw me, they started asking questions.

"Are you and the crown prince still together?"

"Were you there when the king and Queen suddenly disappeared?"

"Are you on your way to meet him now?"

I knew I would meet them on my way out, but i never expected that many of them would wait to hear what had happened to us. I pushed past them to hail a taxi, and when I was in, I heaved a deep sigh and rested my back on the car seat.

"Are you alright, sir?" The driver asked, and I nodded in response.

"hmmmm. I have seen you on the news. You are the crown prince's boyfriend, right?" he asked, but I didn't reply. "There is nothing to be ashamed of," he said as he started the car again. "Being gay doesn't make you any different from anyone. Don't let anyone dictate what you should be, and just be yourself," he added. "I know that you are heading to meet the crown prince right now and probably blaming yourself for what happened, but I have to tell you that none of it was your fault, and even though you keep beating yourself about it, I have to tell you that it wouldn't change a thing."

I frowned at first at his words because I never expected that he would know that much.

I never anticipated that he would learn things that I didn't tell him, and it made me suspicious of him as I stared at him curiously through the rearview mirror.

"You don't have to look at me like that," he said, sparing a glance my way, and then he smiled. "I am not the enemy here. I am someone who wants you to have your happy ending," he told me.

I frowned at the mention of a happy ending, remembering what Hecate had told me. Even though she had fulfilled her side of the bargain, it didn't change the fact that I was still unhappy about everything happening. The one that had made me do it didn't even want to have anything to do with me, and it felt as if I had failed terribly.

"Are you alright?" The driver asked. I cleared my throat and nodded in response.

"I know that you are thinking of a solution, and so, I have this one thing to tell you." he paused and looked at me through the rearview mirror. "To get Hecate, there is a powerful weapon that will destroy her forever, and that is what you can use to get rid of her forever, so if you are planning..."

"hold on," I stopped him before he could finish what he was trying to say. "how did you know about Hecate? No one knows about her, and you might have heard it somehow, so how......"

The man laughed. "You are not the only ones trying to survive the world Hecate had created. Do you believe you will be free from all of this?" he asked. "The promise that Hecate made and fulfilled for you will turn into something else for you if you are not careful, and I have to tell you that it might be something that you will regret soon."

"But... Hecate told me that there won't be any issue with it, so what are you trying to tell me right now? Are you..."

He shook his head and sighed. "Hecate is a liar, and that was how he lied to the king and the queen, and I have to tell you that he had done the same to almost everyone who turned to her for help," he sighed and shook his head again. "I am an example of one of her victims who was stupid enough to have fallen for her tricks, and you will soon. "

"what do I do?" I questioned and rubbed my face. I had been so stupid not to realize that I was dealing with a powerful being.

"how do I stop Hecate?"noveldrama

"There is a sword powerful enough to end her, and a lot of the dead have been searching for it for a long time, but the one thing that makes them unsuccessful is the greed that had gotten to them and destroyed them, so if you are thinking of getting her, then you must kill all the desires and greed that you have."

"what does that even mean?" I questioned, sounding confused because I was. No matter how hard I tried to figure it out, I couldn't understand what he was trying to tell me. If I could genuinely get Hecate, then I was ready. I had been born ready from the moment she took over my body and took the royals away.

The man suddenly hit the brakes, sending me flying forward, my head striking the front seat. I groaned painfully as I raised my head, ready to shout at the man for almost making my head get damaged, but instead, he was writing something on his palm with his fingers. "what are you doing?"

"I am passing this on to you since I have failed, and my journey is about to end now."

I frowned at him, having no idea what he was trying to say. "Is there something that you are not telling me?" I asked him. "are you trying to...."

"Desmond!" he shouted my name and turned to face me, grabbing my hand.

My heart jumped in shock as he placed his palm on mine. I gritted my teeth as it started to burn, and it was hurting badly that I could feel the pain in my belly. "what are you trying to do!"

"The sword is hidden in the black clouds, the place you will reach before the dark hole. No one has seen the sword, but I believe you and the crown prince can find it because I trust you will do it."

Trust! I wanted to shout at him for trusting someone like me. I could fail the mission because I had failed to protect everyone around me, and yet, he had faith in me that I could save everyone else.
