Chapter 2

The Start of the Seach

“Minho…” Dhara can’t believe her eyes when she saw Minho by the window...his neck with the shining mark of her bloodline.

Minho did not notice Dhara. The pain is slowly subsiding from his neck…Why has his neck been hurting the past hours?

Dhara touched Minho’s arm and it made Minho surprised…

“You are never a person to get caught off guard.” Said Dhara

That is true…Minho has very keen senses…he can hear…feel things even if they are meters away from him…it was surprising that he did not notice the Princess when she approached him.

“I…was distracted.” Said Minho

“By the mark on your neck?” asked Dhara

Minho’s hand immediately went to the painful part of his neck…and felt something like lines embossed…

“You haven’t seen it?” asked Dhara

Minho looked at his hand touching his neck…it has a strange blue light coming from his neck.

Dhara looked at the window.

“It only means one thing, Minho….You are being called …to join the Circle of Diamond…” said Dhara

No…

“That is a mistake, Princess.” Said Minho “I am not part of the Circle.”

“The mark…is evident…You cannot hide it.” Said Dhara

“You know that it is impossible for me to join the Circle…” said Minho

“You believe what the people say about you?” asked Dhara taking a few steps away

"I have sworn my allegiance and loyalty to you, Princess Dhara. And I will not leave you here alone when you need me the most." said Minho kneeling in front of Princess Dhara.

Dhara walked towards Minho again and helped him up. 

"I do need you the most now Minho...more than ever...I cannot imagine that you will be away from me when I have forever had you by my side...but the Kingdom needs you too. How can I deprive the Kingdom of the next bloodline? How can I let the Kingdom be destroyed because of my selfishness? " said Dhara

Minho closed his eyes...

Dhara lifted Minho’s face to look at her.

“I have always been wondering why my Father brought you here…I have always known that you staying by my side forever is not his reason…I have wondered and thought about it a lot…but the question never had an answer…maybe…this is it…maybe he brought you here because of the circle.” Said Dhara

----------------------------

Dhara and Minho entered the chamber. The shock in the scholar and Kris’ eyes are apparent when they saw the shining mark on Minho’s neck.

“He….is part of the circle?” asked the scholar.

“I think ‘the call’ made the mark finally appear.” Said Dhara

The Seer nodded.

The scholar looks agitated.

“My Princess…can I talk to you please…in private…for a moment?” asked the scholar

Dhara nodded.

---------------------------

“We cannot allow him to be part of the Circle, Princess….it is absolutely dangerous.” Said the scholar
