Creative Writing: The Goblin King

The Goblin King sat on his throne, watching his queen sleeping soundly on the center of his throne room. He wasn’t sure when she would wake up, but he knew it would be pretty soon. He was surprised she broke the illusion of the dream he cast upon her, especially when his Labyrinth’s magic was involved. However, he had a feeling her own magic had awaken through her very veins. The ring he gave her, was his heart of the labyrinth that swirled in that precious gem.
“So that’s your future wife, my King?” His longtime friend and right hand advisor, Ruka, Inquired to him in curiosity.
“Yep, that’s her. But she hates me, so don’t expect any honeymoon anytime soon,” Ruka sighed out loud.
“Give it time, Natsume. I’m sure the girl will come around, after …show more content…
So what do you plan on doing about it?” Ruka needed an answer from him. Both of them are faes, but they were banished to the Underground and Natsume ended up becoming the goblins ruler. Which gave his friend the notorious title of the Goblin King. Thinking about that day when they were banished, still brought so many dreadful memories.
“If they sent me a letter of wanting to meet her, then we will go from there. That place is no longer my home. Don’t forget Ruka, you can always go back because you weren’t the one that was really banished.” Ruka could go back if he really wanted to, he would always get letters from his mother wanting him to return to her, but he couldn’t do it because he would always be right by Natsume’s side.
“I know that Natsume, but remember, we’re blood brothers. We promised each other when we were kids, we would always be there for each other no matter what, and I chose to be banished with you.” Natsume was never really good at showing his emotions, but Ruka could tell those words meant a lot to him.
Mikan slowly opened her eyes, she felt herself quite drowsy. She slowly got up, taking in her surroundings. She found herself in a throne room, she pinched herself to make sure she wasn’t dreaming again. It seemed her dreams have been colliding with reality, and she can’t quite grasp what’s real or not …show more content…
“Sis!” She exclaimed in relief.
She wrapped her little sister in a tight embrace, crying in joy. Mikan finally noticed her presence, and gripped onto her cloak. “Mitsuki, I’m a married woman,” She rasped with choke sobs. Mitsuki felt like a bucket of cold water poured over her. She stared at the ring that was around her sister’s finger, and couldn’t believe what she was seeing.
“Goblin King, what is the meaning of this!” She soothingly rubbed on her sister’s shoulders, trying to calm her from hyperventilating.
“As I told your sister, the personal price of beating my labyrinth is marriage. That ring right there, binds her to me and my kingdom forever. You, on the other hand, can go back to the mortal realm since your sister fulfilled her promise.” Mitsuki looked at her sister with tears of her own, she couldn’t leave her, especially in the Goblin King’s evil clutches. If she bid time, played her cards right, she might be available to get them out of this situation.
“I’m not leaving my sister,” She said with a finalized tone.
The Goblin King had to admit, he was surprised she didn’t jump at the opportunity getting out of here. However, he admired her loyalty to her
