ANGELINA

Looking at her bloody hands, Angelina smiled softly.
The storm roared & nature wept for the cruelty it just witnessed. Everything was dark & gloomy.
It could have been something else, something less gritty but alas! Angelina's mind was now coming out of the box she had put that dark, gritty, dangerous thing in! And that— was the most dangerous weapon she owned.
As she held up the black rose in her hands, she realized she's won. They were all wrong! All those people, all those stories which said she couldn't make people bow to her- they were all so wrong! For she could! She always could! They just failed to look through her soft blue eyes & beautiful angelic face. They failed to see her insanity, her MIND. She hid it perfectly. They thought she was too innocent for this destruction, little did they know that as they were thinking that, Angelina was making dangerous schemes which will help her in achieving the power, the position which belonged to her.
Her golden crown shone as the dim light of the only light of the ballroom— the candles illuminated the room. She stood there in her beautiful black gown which was flaunting her gorgeous skin even more. Making her look like an Angel in a Devil's clothing. She was! Just not an Angel in a Devil's clothing— but a Devil with an angelic face. Her big, beautiful blue eyes, long eyelashes, wavy brown hair & beautiful skin were the reason why her mother— the Queen— had named her Angelina in the first place! But the name just gave everyone false imagery of what Angelina was, the name just......never fit.
The ballroom was the place. The place where her father was dethroned over false accusations by his very own blood, her uncle, all those years ago. The place where just after the crowning ceremony of her uncle who successfully became the king using his wicked ways— her mother drank the poison & took her own life. The place where AGAIN after false accusations of burglary, her father was beheaded RIGHT IN FRONT OF HER. All six years old Angelina could do was watch with tears as her world fell apart.
Now she was here. Again in the same ballroom The difference? This time it was her aunt who drank poison & took her own life. The reason? The first thing she saw as she woke up in the morning was her husband's detached head— the body still missing.
Her uncle, the man behind this all— oh how much of a fool he was to follow Angelina to the woods where she beheaded him! Did he beg, begged for mercy while she? She just enjoyed the sight of her uncle, shivering in fear & begging to be forgiven. Angelina just laughed at that, she doubled over in laughter at him and it was at that moment that her uncle realized that his life had come to an end as there was no way he could escape Angelina. All hope drained from his face— just like it had from Angelina's father's face all those years ago. That was exactly what Angelina wanted.
The door to the ballroom burst open as her cousin was brought in. He was struggling against his restraints, trying to avoid the same fate as his parents. Angelina smirked & went in front of him. "Hello.....cousin" she said with the sweetest smile & widest eyes possible, reminding Carlos— her cousin— of every time he thought of her as a sister, every time he brought her food, clothes, toys & flowers because the others couldn't care less about her. His eyes teared up as he asked, "Why?", Angelina smiled sweetly & answered, "Because I won" she said. She looked at the guards & ordered them to throw him in the dungeons. They did just that.
Angelina elegantly walked in front of the chess board. The black King was down, already killed by the white bishop. She smirked as she saw the white king left completely vulnerable & with the black Queen, she killed it.
"What happened has happened. What was done is done, who ruled has ruled. Now I am the Queen here & everyone will abide by my wishes. Any disobedience will result to only one thing, & that is—" the audience gasped as she swiftly took out a knife & threw it at a guard who was trying to poison her food on the table, the knife going straight into his heart killing him in an instant, "—DEATH". And Angelina Alodia was crowned as the new Queen of Daesyn.
