****************************************************************************************
He paced his uncles study In panic, she'd been in there so long and now and again he could hear screams, screams of pain that made him want to rip anyone and everyones throats out. They're hurting her and he can't stop it! all he wants to do is help the love of his life, stop her suffering, anything but having this constant loop of worry then anger than despair. Anything.
A few moments later, after hours of this torture, when he'd just reached the end of his tether, a tiny squawking could be heard. A childs first cry.
He almost sank to the floor and wept, his child had been born. He was a father, and his wife and child were on the other side of that very door. He barged through the panelled wood and took in the sight. Kyra, sweaty and still beautiful, glowed as she held a perfectly wrapped new born, her eyes watering. Slowly, as if fighting every moment, he got closer to them then sank to his knees, joyous and pure happy tears dropped from his eyes as he held her hand.
"can I...can I hold?"
she nodded and passed the child over, pride in her eyes. And he was so proud of her. He rocked the child, his child. Giant blue eyes stared up at him and he spiralled, lost in their sight. Brunette hair, a shock of it that was stuck to her cute baby face, reminded him of his child's mother and he gasped when the child smiled up at him, gazing, and a tiny hand curled around his finger. They rocked together and he heard kyra breathing heavily, he gave a quiet kiss in the forehead for her good work and she squeezed his hand.
"I love her" she smiled at the bundle of joy In his hands. He preened with pure happiness and had to take a seat, his knees weak.
"Me too. What shall we call our angel?" He didnt miss the gleam in his wife's beautiful eyes, eye that now resembled so much into their daughters.
But she had his nose, and he was wiped away with the notion until he was crying, cradling the child closer.
"Thyne. I like thyne... But you, you get to choose. If I choose I'll never be able to call it her, she is part mine" she said regretfully, but still unable to dampen his mood.
"She is all yours my wingless girl, and I'll love every part of her because of it, she is perfect, she takes after her mother" he placed another kiss on her lips and together they sat in perfect silence, appreciating what they now had as their own.
A while later a hustle and bustle could be heard and as he passed a slumbering baby in a pink blanket to a very satisfied looking kyra he approached the doors before they burst open.
If he expected congratulations, he didnt get it. He couldn't even had this moment to himself, they were already swarming him. Guards creating a semi circle, his dear wife distressed, after just giving birth she was now being lifted from the bed, our child taken from her.
"STOP, SHE'S MINE, DEVON HELP!" She screamed as he lurched for the pair of them, Thyne first.
"THE GUARDS!" Another female screeched, a maid that now cradled his child, he forcefully took her back and looked for kyra, who was now being well protected by his uncle.
"We must leave," he pressed a hand to his head, "give me the girl, I will keep them safe I promise on my life"
With trepidation he hesitated, he knew this would come. But why so soon? He'd barely held her, she was only a few moments old.
"Uncle, no, I can not give them up, they are my family" he was torn apart as he broke down, his uncle's familiar face held sympathy for his nephew as they joined a crying kyra.
"Are they really coming?" She whispered in horror, reaching for the babe. He nodded regretfully, he knew the moment she'd gone into labour they would be on their way, and that was hours ago. "They're going to take my daughter aren't they?"
He nodded and watched her beautiful, once happily glowing face, cave in and break apart. He bent into her face and kissed her. "You must stay here my love, I will be back" he kissed her and lingered more than he should have.
"This hurts so bad, she's mine... I've barely held her," she sobbed brokenly, "you can't take her away from me"
"It's too dangerous for you, please to with Fleur, she will take you somewhere safe while we lead them away"
He gave her a goodbye kiss and watched her for the first and last time kiss their child. "I love you thyne, I'm going to give you a life you deserve, I'll never forget you, you're my daughter and apart of me. You're my life, I'll always be with you, even when you can't see me" she stood and walked towards the main guard, a man he had once despised before he knew properly, and watched his wife palm the mans cheek and pass over Thyne.
His heart clenched at the seen. He had to let her go now, just for now, keep her safe, just till he could fix them and get her back. Kill every last enemy, then they'd have they're little family back. He nodded at the guard as he took his baby and he could no longer watch the scene unfold, it was too painful.
"Danton, I'm trusting you with my life here, she is everything. Please, please, protect her"
His uncle consoled kyra as he prepared to leave, catching a glimpse of the main guard tightly clutching his bundle of joy. It killed him inside.
"I swear I will die before she is harmed" he nodded once and, after a brief conversation between the two he couldn't hear, he abruptly stood straight and all too soon just like that, he was gone. Taking his child with him.
"Devon, we must go, our ferrier is holding open the pits gate. You'll be the distraction," he watched regretfully with a heavy heart as Fleur, his servant, escorted his wife to his safe haven. She cried as she blew him a kiss, he caught it and blew one back as she wiped her cheeks and then she too was gone from sight.
He'd just lost the two most important things in his life.
He would kill ever last bastard on this earth.
"Listen to me, It's... it's Xavi', he's leading it"
"The spirit king?" He screwed up his face as they raced the halls, bounding into the stable to he jump upon his horse.
"Yes"
"Where are you taking my kin?" He looked at the face of his uncle and, grimly, noticed the fear in his eyes.
"I cannot tell you Devon, but your ferrier, Nicolai, is waiting for you. Lead them to the mountains, we will ambush them there, weaken the king. We strike while we can, do not worry, She is in safe hands with Danton"
"You promise me?"
In silence the paired stared at one another and when he heard the gunshot of the warning bell, he knew they were in his domain.
"I will lead them away, but you," his fisted the mans shirt and pulled him close, "if I lose my child, I will kill every last person that had anything to do with this. Including you, dear uncle, that forced my hand into hiding her. Do you understand?"
He nodded and then like that, in his black stead, he was off like a whippet, followed by the rest of his men. The carriage that took to trick them into thinking he had the child only mocked him as they hit the gate.
"King Devon,"
He interrupted the gate keeper, who was also his best ripper, and shoved a sword into his hand.
"The mountains, we cut them off there," they set off together out of the underworld and up onto earth, the portal shut behind them and the snowy mountains came into view, as they rode he made sure to get closer to the ripper, "you, I need your word on something"
He was panting as the sound of hooves caught up behind them and soon all members of them, the alliance set out to destroy his child after what he'd learned had become rumours in the supernatural world.
"Anything my king"
They rode at such a pace on their demon horses that the world blurred around them and he barely felt the cold, just pictured destroying everyone who set out to hurt his daughter.
"There is a book, with everything in it, or there will be. You must promise me to keep her protected and destroy it"
"I won't need to," he panted over the noise of the oncoming battle, "the head of the guard will watch her like a hawk, but we all will be there for her"
He let the remorse of all his actions weigh on his mind as the leader, Xavi, threw the first weapon with a battle cry.
The war had begun.
**************************************
Danton ran with far more purpose than he ever had before, the quite child in his arms bouncing with every foot fall. He could hear the battle cries echoing upon the mountains and swallowed his nerve, as the sky strike with lightened and roar with thunder he bounds through the brambles to the otherside.
He promised his friend, the queen, he'd protect their daughter with his life. He'd never made a promise he couldn't keep, he wasn't to start now.
The hellhounds were on his tail and he heard them growling as he climbed the rock side, the child tucked deep into his jacket. They barked and snapped at his heels and he knew, Xavi wouldn't be far behind if his dogs knew they were being fooled.
He made it to the top and scaled the electric fence, spotting the small aircraft some of the humans used. He knew even if they made it off the ground they would know they'd been fooled, would still track her down. In a split second decision he knew he'd have to out them off forever, make them think they'd won so they'd give up. Even if it were just for a little while.
The king and queen could mourn and then, if the truth ever came out she was still alive, he would deal with the consequences but right now, he had to do something.
So, after placing a run under the baby's skin and watching the protecting blue hue light disappear and sink into her pale flesh he hid her in a crevice of rocks and hushed up, taking her blanket. He hoped this worked.
He kissed the blue eyed baby, with locks of mahogany and already forming freckles, on the forehead and gave a silent oath he'd protect her with his life, then he set off to work. The earth was rumbling as Xavi figured out the fake carriage was indeed a distraction and empty, Danton could even see his horses eating up the distance as they came for him.
Now or never, I hope they can forgive me, but we must perish.
And so right there, on the eve of the Thyne's birth, he crashed a plane into the rocky bed of the cliff and watched it burn from afar, evidence planted. The flames were pretty and, as they hid in the shadows miles away, the child reached forward as if she could touch them. The flames jumped higher, as if searching for something, and with shock Danton's eyes opened wide.
Surely he'd made the right decision, if the child was already showing signs of such greatness and power only a mere 20 minuets after birth, she'd have been hunted till her death. He'd given her a blessing, with their alleged death.
He just hoped they forgave him for what he'd done, as he turned from the sight and escaped into the night, clinging to a bundle of prophecy as she gurgled over his shoulder and continued to watch the burning wreckage.
Somewhere far in the distance, a women's pained scream could be heard. It was to be the first of many.
[ the rest of this book is titled under Beauty Through Thyne and most of that's backing story will only make sense if you read this last little chapter in A Demons Dream Of Heaven okay? Okidokey, ciao ]
Look for it!!!!!!
