That same “fake� smile appeared on his face, the one that managed to appear in his nightmarish dream. Looking back at Resa, he had realized she had been eyeing him as well. A deep sigh manifested as he scurried through the wreckage of his brain for some answer. He probably realized now that he was talking in his rest. “Helen, she’s my wife,� He shook his had in disagreement, “she was my wife.� His eyes showed sadness now, but it was more of a depression. He looked away from Resa and stared at his mask, which had been lying undisturbed on the bed. Reaching for it, he pulled it towards him and held it in his lap as he gazed deeply into its visor.
“There weren’t many that were happy with my coming of royalty,� He was going to tell her the whole story, although he never ever told anyone of his past, “and after a few months almost all of the “pure-bloods� had seceded from the hierarchy.� As he was enchanting Resa with his past, he rubbed off a tear that had managed to free itself from the beginning of his story. “There had been half-breeds before, basically a demon with human blood, but none had the guts or even the reputation to try and become in any part of royalty,� He took a pause to look at Resa, “yet, I changed it all, and did what no half-breed had ever tried to accomplish.�
Looking down at the wood floor, he gave out a deep sigh. His mind began to focus more and more on Helen, and another tear shed itself. This time, it was left to roll down and fall off his cheek to the floor. All that was being concentrated on was what he was going to say next, a lie or the truth? Maybe he’d just make up everything else, and maybe even mix it up a bit. No, he was going to tell the whole truth, even if he’d crack to tell it.
“So… after they seceded, their new leader had declared war, and at the time I was skeptical since I just recently became a king and we were heavily outnumbered,� Zocano paused for a second to think, “but our will held out and we managed to survive a few battles, and luckily I had squeezed in a cease fire with the pure-bloods.� At that moment he stopped to feel his emotions erupting. His head hung low, his hair concealed his entire head and a few tears had hit the floor. “It, it seemed too easy for me, and I…I was right,� In his sadness, he pushed himself off the bed and landed knees first onto the floor, “those bastards had spies in our city, and they came to my room to try to assassinate me, but I wasn’t there.� More and more tears began to fall from his face, and although he was actually sobbing, the tears were enough to show how heart broken he is. “We were going to have a child in a month!� He screamed, crashing down onto the floor. He held himself up with his arms.
“Why,� He shook violently, “why couldn’t it have been me in that room!� He could barely move, but he kept trying to move his head. It was painful, not physically but mentally, he didn’t want to see anyone. Everyone he ever knew died, his brother is missing, his mother and father both deceased, and now his wife; the one person that ever truly loved him. “I HATE THEM,� He slammed the floor viciously, “I HATE THEM!� He continued to scream in fury and with that anger he still could barely move. But he finally locked eyes with Resa.
He could feel sanity again, the sensation of peace and calm in the air. It took a few moments, but he was in control of his anger again. “I met her in a city just like this, and Helen looked just like you,� an actual smile managed to peek out from under his sorrow. Wiping off another the last few tear, he laid back against the bed side, right beside Resa. “Is,� he looked over at Resa, “is there anything else you’d like to know?� He asked calmly, his eyes still locked on Resa’s.
