Erin's  POV:

Well, I didn't have to ask to attend the execution. Because they forced all of the entire town to watch. I stood next to Lexi and her family. I just stared at platform where the rope was dangling from a pole. I didn't want to look at it. There where guards positioned to guard the platform where the executioner waited.The area was very crowded with people. Which didn't make Lexi happy. There was sobbing, chatter, ect... That was when the guards came out with the prisoner. Wait, is that... Petra? What! Why the hell would Mika? What did Petra have to do with this? I stood there in shock as they forced the rope around her neck. I wanted to scream, but it wouldn't come out. Why? Please Mika! Don't do this! The whole crowd silenced as a familiar face came up to speak.
"Listen up you filthy peasants! If any of you are responsible for the capture of Erin Jäger or where apart of it, or know more info about it than what has been released, you shall be hanged! Take this as a lesson, however you are, those who mess with me shall feel the wrath of God!" Mika yelled. As he said that. The trapdoor underneath Petra's feet opened, leaving her to suffocate, while an entire crowd watched. Usually executions like this wouldn't force the entire village or kingdom to watch, for logical reasons. But... Mika didn't seem to give a shit! Did my capture really turn him into this? Or did he just over react? Probably both. People started yelling and screaming. I watched in horror as life slowly drained from her eyes. My eyes widened in horror. The woman who practically raised me, was now dead. Hanging by a thread. Tears started to spill. And I felt my heart shatter. Lexi hugged me. While Isabel cried. How could Mika do such a thing? He knows how much she means to me, so why'd he do it?! I hope he burns in the depths of hell!!! How could he do something like this to a angel!? He didn't even show any remorse!
"Oi! Mary!" Lexi said snapping me out of my thoughts.
"What is it?" I asked. I felt my veins run cold for a moment. I wanted nothing more, than to kill Mika. To see the life drain out of his eyes.
"We can leave now." Lexi responded with. I followed Lexi out of the crowded area, which Isabel sobbing on her mother's shoulder. Mika, you will regret this!

Flash back:

"Peetra!" A small child yelled.
"What is it your highness?" Petra asked, smiling at how cute it was when Erin accidentally mispronounced her named. So cute!
"I'm hungry!" Erin demanded.
"Miss, you need to watch what you eat, for you see, it's not very ladylike to eat like a pig. While I'm glad you are eating, I'm not glad you're eating to much. Plus, you had lunch a few seconds ago..." Petra explained.
"So?" Erin growled.
"So? So you can grow to be a beautiful young lady! You'll suffocate when you get older to wear a corset if you keep eating like this!" Petra exclaimed. The child frowned.
"Listen Erin, you can't be selfish if you want to become a good queen. Because you have to understand, you can't always get what you want, things won't always go your way. I understand it can be hard, but listen, no one is perfect, and you shouldn't try to be, you should be yourself, not some fictional character! You're already perfect in your own way, there is no need to change everything! So perhaps instead of eating, would like to go outside?" Petra said. Erin smiled. Petra was an expert at parenting from the day she got here. She used to babysit children back in her village before her parents sold her to the Jeager family.
"Thank you miss!" Erin said, wrapping her 9 year old heads around Petra's neck. Petra smiled. If only Carla could see just how cute her daughter was. Maybe she'd take a bit more time out of her busy day to bond with her.
"You're welcome sweetie~ I'll always be here to guide you." Petra promised, hugging her back. Before Petra met Erin, she hated her parents for doing this to her, but now. She was glad she did it. If they hadn't done it, then she wouldn't meet Erin. Which is something that she could never forget. Erin was like her child. Her cub. And she wanted to make sure that she'd grow up into a fine and mature lady. Not a girl, but a woman. She knew she'd become a fine ruler. Petra lifted Erin into the air.
"So how about that trip outside?" Petra asked. Erin smiled and threw her hands up.
"Yaaay!" She exclaimed. Petra giggled. If only there was some way to capture this moment forever.
"Let's go!" Petra said

3rd person POV

Erin laid on her new bed. Tears stained her cheek. Petra was like a mother to her, and now she's dead! She got up and looked into the sunlight. Her eyebrows furrowed when she remembered Mika. The man that she used to be so happy about marrying. Had ruthlessly murdered her closest friend. And felt no remorse. The betrayal, the shock. Erin wouldn't let Mika get away with this. Not for long. She got up to look out the window.
"Mika..." Erin stuttered," I'll make you pay!" She felt anger flow through her veins.
"I'll make you suffer!" Erin yelled.
