Chapter 9~ Parting Ways

  (3rd Person View)
  "Well,well...my bride has come crawling back to me." Zane finally had the last piece to his puzzle. He finally could have total power over the Ru'aun region.

"I have a place here Zane...and yes I have come crawling back. For Garroth does no good." Anna tried to suck up to Zane to stay alive.

"Well. We shall have the wedding this evening. To celebrate your arrival." Zane smirked.

"Whatever works for you my dear." Anna swallowed back the tears. She knew what she would be getting into and she didn't want to do it,but had to.

"I'll call my guards and maids to prepare the wedding. You may go to the Jury quarters.". With that Anna left Zane's throne room and went to the bunks.
(Anna's P.O.V.)
I entered the bunks to see Jeffory.
"Jeffory!!" I called out.
"Anna! What are you doing back here?! Zane is going to kill you!!" He came up and hugged me.
"He's just going to force me to marry him...what are you talking about?" I got worried since Jeffory has never lied to me.
"He's going to make you Ru'aun's sweetheart. Then in the middle of a giant speech, he'll threaten to kill you unless he gets complete power. Your just a pawn." He looked sad and worried for me.
"Jeffory. I have a place here. Back in Phoenix Drop, all I did was walk and think. It was simple and boring.".
"Anna! You have to leave. Or I'll make you!"
"I'll be fine Jeffory...promise." I was trying to shove promises his way.
"No...no promises, no nothing. Your doing suicide by going into Zane's plan!!".
"Jeffory! I said I'll b-" he kissed me and broke me off of my sentence.
"I worry about you. Now either you leave now or I'll make you."
"I'm still not leaving...I'm sorry Jeffory.
"What's happened to you? This is not the old Anna..." He walked out of the bunks.
I feel really bad. Jeffory just tried to be my friend and try to get me to safety but I shut it down.

  I unpacked and went to talk to Zane about the wedding and I heard two guards talking to Jeffory then saw them take him to Zane's throne room. I quietly followed.
  I hid behind a corner and watched and listened to the whole thing.
"I know what you tried to do." Zane started the conversation.
"What did I do?"
"You tried to help my bride escape.".
"Okay? I know your plan though! And she's my friend! What you expect me to do?!"
"Don't tell her!" Zane cleared his throat. "I'm letting you go. No charges."
"Really? Your just going to let me go? Nothing at all?!" A guard untied Jeffory from his chair. Zane got up and started for the window. Jeffory turned to the window. On Zane's way, he stabbed Jeffory in his back. I gasped and ran to his side. Zane just stared out his window.
"Jeffory!! Oh my Irene!" I started to cry.
"Anna! What are you doing?"I stared at him. His bright green eyes that were always full of life, we're fading into nothing.
"Jury code number 17, always carry nine lives. Take my last one, protect Abby."
"Jeffory! Hang in there!! Please don't leave me!".
"I'm sorry Anna...take care of Abby for me..." He was gone. His face pale, and his eyes lifeless. My best friend...gone. I got up and looked to Zane.
"What have you done!!"
"Killed a useless pawn."
"You expect me to marry you when you killed my best friend! Hell no!"
"Excuse me? You came back to me...I can do what I want!" He walked up to me. "Now calm down. Or more people will get hurt." He smirked and I felt a sharp pain in my stomach area. I looked down to find a knife in my abdomen.
"You ass." I managed to get out.
"Oh...this is just the beginning...".
I tried to yell at him but everything got dark and I was out.
