Destiny: The Winter Princess

Running through the dark and ugly looking trees that felt like they were watching me, the demons where everywhere hunting me.

fighting the demons are like fighting with your own shadow which was an impossible task.

I felt fingers running down my neck and back which sent shivers through my body.

"Destiny, join us" the demon said in a raspy voice behind me. "You are weak, destiny, join us and get the powers u seek. The Devil wants you." he added and my body filled up with goosebumps.

i gritted my teeth in annoyance and turned all around, trying to find the demon among the darkness that surrounds me.

"I guess you are messing with the wrong person" i said with a smirk as I stood still.

"leave me or die" i added after a heart beat.

I wasn't sure of what I was saying cause even the heavens know I wasn't powerful enough to fight the demons.

Different voices laughed at me mockingly and that was when i knew it the were more than one demons.

~~~

The sound of my alarm woke me up and I sat up, panting and gasping for air with sweat running down my temple.

I turn to the side to glance at my alarm clock and saw that it was 7:03am in the morning.

"My lady" The voice of Floral, my personal maid sounded in the room and I turned to look at her as she stood at the entrance of my room.

"Your bath is ready" she added with a smile and her hands in front of her white Apron.

"Thank you." i replied curtly and with a groan.

"Do you want anything else?" she asked and

I shook my head and told her she could leave.

She bowed her head and left and when i heard the door close behind her, i got up and entered my bathroom.

The steamy water was like an invitation to my sore muscles and I wasted no time to listen to its call. I took off my clothes and entered the bathtub.

Fuck, it feels great.

As I sink deeper into the water, I couldn't help but think about the dream I had last night.

I took up to twenty minutes in the bath tub.

"My lady" i heard flora say. "are you in there? " she asked.

That brought me out of my day dream and I snap my eyes open.

"oh yes just a mintue " i replied getting out of the tub and on the tiled floor. As i entered my room, i found flora next to my bed with a beautiful strapless white gown in her left arm.

"Do you like this one my lady?" she asked, shaking the silky material a little.

"Yes, it's lovely. You really know my taste flora" i said with a wink and she blushed.

"White is my favourite" i added.

i have always loved white because it matches with my beautiful long white hair.

My name is Destiny and I will be turning 18 tomorrow. I am the only daughter and princess of cloud kingdom.

My dad is a worrior, a powerful fighter and he always tells me that i will be a great warrior and princess and to always use my power for good.

My mother died when I was just a child in the hands of a demon. Dad still blames himself for not being there with mom when she needed him but he was fighting a war when it happened.

I was only six as i watched how the demons tore through mom's flesh, sucked the blood out of her and eat her brain and when one was about to get me, dad saved me and killed them and since then, I vowed to kill all demons even lucifer himself.

Tomorrow was a special day for me as it would be my Birthday. The cloud kingdom was being decorated with beautiful flowers and I stood at the hallway, staring out the window and admiring the beauty of my kingdom.

I have never once left the walls of the castle because it's not safe, dad warned me to stay within our Kingdom walls because the demons have been growing rapidly.

I also wasn't allowed to have any friends which made life her boring. Since the night of my mother death, Dad made sure I kept safe and hidden in the castle. in fact, people haven't seen me apart from some workers that works in the castle.

People only see me when there is a secret Occasion or when special guests are invited to the castle like the Kings and Queens of other Kingdoms.

i will be turning 18 tomorrow all supernatural powers i mean teen powers begin from the age 16 to 18

For some days now, i haven't been sleeping well because I have been having nightmares. I Didn't tell father a word about this, but the dream I had last night kept hunting me and troubling me throughout the day that I got up from my bed and made my room into dad's chambers.

"dad" i called while pushing his room door slowly.

Dad was seated in front of his Desk with a book of how to Kill demons on his right hand.

He turned his head towards me and took off his glasses. "come sit " dad said with a little smile playing on his lips.

I noded my head and while walking towards him,I took a seat and placed it next to his. I peaked a little at the open book with a frown and dad quickly closed it and pushed it to the side. I raised my head up to look at him and gave him a confused and weak smile.

"What's wrong princess? " dad asked with his brow furrowed as he smoothen my white hair. He looked so concerned because he knows I never came to his room late at night. out his words and givind me a concern look.

"I have been having nightmares, not sleeping well " i said with a shaky breath.

"whats the dream all about, Honey?" he asked with a warm smile, smoothing his hand through my hair once more in a comforting way.

"It's demons dad. They keep hunting me in my sleep, telling me th-that lucifer want me " I told him looking up at him nervously.

"what do the want from me?" i added as a sob broke out of my lips.

Dad furrow his brows, rubbing his temple and looking at his table like his looking for an answer there but we both knew there wasn't.

he released a sigh and then turned his head to look at me.

"Don't worry about it princess, its going to be fine" he replied with a tight lip smile that didn't quite reach his eyes.

"Tommorrow, i'll be taking you to Mr williams for portions. it will help you sleep better and keep the Nightmares away" he added, knitting my shoulder and a comforting way and I hesitantly nodded.

I felt like dad was hiding something... that he knew something but instead, I decided to not ask.

"dad," i said with a small smile standing up and dusting an invisible dirt from my Pj. "I'll be going to my room now" I kissed dad on the cheek and then walked to the door.

"Happy birthday dear i advance" i heard him say.

"Thanks" i replied looking back at him.

I laid on my bed with a sigh as I looked up at the white ceiling. It didn't take long before I fell asleep.

~~~~~

Everyone were busy preparing for my birthday I was in the dress room where the makeup artist just did a final touch on my face.

I got up from my seat and walked to the mirror on the wall. I gasped in awe at how I looked. I smiled at my reflection and did a little twirl. The yellow mermaid gown hugged my body at the right places. I flatten my palm on the soft silky material.

I look so fucking beautiful... No, scratch that, I felt beautiful.

"You look beautiful my lady" Lilly, the makeup artist said looking at me with admiration.

"Thanks Lilly." I replied proudly with my chin raised high.

When everyone left, I took in a deep breath before pushing the door and walking down the hall. Today would be the first time the Kingdom gets to see in twelve years and I was a nervous rack.

I stood behind the closed door that separated I and the guest that were in the ballroom. The sound of shoe against the marble floor made me turn my head around to see dad in a blue tux walking straight to me with a large smile on his face.

"You look beautiful, my princess" He mumbled against my temple and I close my eyes and released a soft sigh.

"Thank Dad" I said with a grin.

Soon, the door was pulled open, and I walked. With my left hand curved around dad's, we walked walked down the flight of stairs.

All eyes where on me and whispers filled the large room.

She's beautiful.

Is she the princess!!

I don't like her.

Those were the words that filled my ears as I walked pass the people.

When we got to the middle of the ballroom, I stood awkwardly, not knowing where to go or who to talk to since I don't have any friends.

Fuck! this was way harder than i thought.

The were so many people looking at me and I felt really shy and uncomfortable.

Dad cleared his throat and the room became silent that even if a needle was to drop on the floor it would be heard by all.

"We all gather together to celebrate the special day of my daughter, the princess of cloud kingdom. Today, Destiny turns 18"

Dad finished his little speech and the crowd cheered and clapped.

People came forward and congratulated me and I answered them with a smile. When over seventy people came to greet me, I became exhausted and excused myself from the group that had gathered around me.

I went over to the bar to get myself a drink. I gulped down a glass of orange juice when I heard someone from behind me.

"Would you care for a dance, Princess Destiny?"

I looked back and I saw a young blonde guy standing behind me with his hand outstretched. I almost gasped at how handsome he was. His blonde hair was slick to the back and his pumped pink lips stretch in a half smile- half smirk.

"Uhm s-sure" I stuttered nervously while tucking a strand of white hair behind my ear and also taking his hand in my right hand.

"My name is kelvin" He said tightening his hand around mine as we moved t the middle of the room to dance.

"I'm destiny" I replied putting my hands on his shoulders.

"Oh, I know" He chuckled and I smiled.

We dance quietly and he kept looking deeply into my eyes like he was searching for something. My heart felt like it was about to burst out of my chest from how hard it was beating.

"You dance real well princess" he said putting my hands on his chest and mine did a Summersault.

"Thanks. You dance beautifully too" I told him and gently bite my lips.

I wasn't doing it to seduce him or anything, I was just really nervous to be dancing with a boy and not just any boy, a handsome one at that.

"Your white hair makes you look cute" he added

"Thanks"

I looked over Kelvin's shoulders and saw dad walking towards us. I stopped dancing and Kelvin looked down at me in worry. He turned his head to see what- who I was staring at.

"Your majesty" Kelvin bowed his head and Dad nodded.

"Destiny come with me, I have something to discuss with you" dad said and I became worried that something bad had happened.

"I will be back" I said to kelvin and he nodded with a smile.

Dad and I walked away from the crowd to a more silent place.

"Dad what's wrong" I finally asked.

He released a sigh and ran his hand through his hair. "Destiny, I added your name among the list of teen supernatural academy and the picked you" he said and my eyes widen.

" if u are picked among the best seven, you will get to fight demons outside the kingdoms. when I was your age, I was picked I wasn't alone. I am sure you will do great" he added

I just stoodd there lost in my own thought.

It took about three seconds before everything clicked together.

"You did what!!" I whisper-yelled and a few heads turned our way. I took in a few breaths trying to calm my nerves. "Dad did I ever told uou I would like to join the academy? I mean, yeah, I want to- but not now! And why would you do that without asking me first?" I asked, tears of frustration gathering at the coner of my eyes.

"And we don't even know what my gift is. Why would you do that to me... "

Most people wouldn't understand why this is frustrating to me. Knowing that I was going to an academy filled with gifted people, I would be left out. I'd always felt left out in almost everything.

Before dad could ulter a word, i stomped out of the hall with a single tears rolling down my face. I couldn't deal this shit so left the castle to clear my head.

I walked down the dirty road with large trees for minutes and my yellow gown trailed along the ground. I kicked a harmless pebble and it hit a tree that was when I finally loked up.

"Shit" I cussed under my breath,turning around to see where I was. It was quite and dark and the branches looked like they were monsters trying to grab me.

I regret leaving the castle.

"What do I do" I said to myself.

"Are u lost princess" A husky male voice said and I held my breath in fear. I looked each sides, trying to find the source of the voice but couldn't.

"Is anyone there" I said shakily. I was so scared that he might be a Demon out to get me.

Dumbass me just had to leave the castle.

"Hi" The voice said again but this time, I knew where it was coming from. A young boy came out from the back of a tree with his hands in his pockets.

"Oh my god" I gasped, my left hand flying to my mouth to Conceal the choking sound.

Is he a Demi god?
