I ran down the marble halls, my bare feet making little noise in the empty corridor. My long black curls cascading down my back, bouncing with every step. My sapphire blue eyes once full of sparkle and happiness now holding only fear and agony.
The marble arch led me towards what I hoped was the end of the castle. As I reached large oak doors, I shifted my delicate bundle to one arm and flung the oak doors open, only to be met with the faces of my captors. My entire body froze with fear and anger, these people had murdered my husband and wanted my baby.
"Nice of you to join us Ms.Smith." an evil smirk tugged at the edges of his lips. "John." I growled lowly clutching my young child close.
John walked close to me as I backed against the wall. I was still weak but had enough to fight for my baby. I raised my hand to burn him but he caught my wrist pinning it to the wall.
"Do not even think about it my queen." John sneered. He leaned in close to my ear. "Long... Live.. The Queen!" With those words he drove a dagger through my heart ripping my baby girl from my arms.
With my dying breath I managed to gasp out her name, "Amber Rose Smith." My body collapsed and my heart beat it's last.
