showed the pretty, slender mermaid swimming toward him.

He had been informed by his minions of the silly mermaid’s wish, and had agreed for them to bring her to him. Never in his entire life had he required a golden hair mermaid, his collection was colorful but none as ever interesting as the girl.

“What shall I make her promise me?” He muttered in puzzlement, his head tilted to the side. Lucius was a scheming, evil man with a cold heart and everything he wanted on the palm of his hand. Was there anything interesting or worth making the mermaid promise him?

“Master we have brought the mermaid,” his two minions declared as they swam inside, Lucius smirked as the mermaid entered her whole body trembling and her face pale. Her gem like eyes darted around his domain, darting over crab legs in bottles to liquid filled flasks and strange looking creatures trapped inside glass cupboards.

“What a beautiful mermaid you have brought me,” Lucius said as he took in the luscious looking teen, she was exactly his type. If she weren’t so in love with the Prince, he would have captured her and made her, his own personal lover.

“Are you Lucius?” Serena questioned as she looked at the Dark Wizard in awe. He was unlike the rumors suggested, making him appear old and ugly that he hid in total darkness. Lucius was tall and well-built, his chest toned and his six-pack firm, he had dark charcoal hair that matched his octopus tentacles. His ink eyes made her stop breathing for a moment, and her heart leap.

“Yes, I am,” he replied as he swam toward her and reached for her hand. Serena stood paralyzed at the spot as he raised her hand up to his lips and kissed her tenderly. “Nice to make your acquaintances, what is your name darling?” He asked the flustered blonde girl.

“My name is Serena,” she answered with a shy lowered gaze, Lucius chuckled at the nervousness displayed. A picture of the Prince soon came into her vision and she shook her head at the charming Wizard. “I am here for you to grant my wish,” she added as she held her head high and looked straight into his lonely eyes.

“Oh, you cut right into the chase,” he chuckled as he swam over to his cauldron and threw in a red ruby liquid flask into it, slowly smoke raised from inside and formed Prince James. He was sleeping peacefully on a clean silk bed, his perfect face making her jump with giddy. 

Serena swam toward the cauldron and came into an immediate stop when Lucius dispersed it with a single blow of his mouth, his eyes turning a deep red crimson. “You won’t get your Prince that easily,” he told her raising a finger up to shake it in a no motion.

“I will give you the ability to turn into a human, that is in my power but I will not make this Prince love you,” he informed with a sadistic like grin on his face. “I will give you three single days until you make this Prince infatuated with you, and to prove his love he has to kiss you, if you fail to meet these terms then you will be forever mine…understand?”

            “I…uh….understand,” Serena answered swallowing the lump in her throat. So if she is unable to make her Prince Charming fall for her or kiss her she will become the Dark Wizard’s slave.  “I agree to your terms,” she repeated louder.

            Lucius smiled and swam over to a cupboard where he retrieved a dark blue filled flask; he went back to her and snapped his fingers. In front of her appeared a long piece of parchment, it had a lot of words and in the bottom was an x with an underline beside it. “Sign this,” he instructed as he gave her the inky tipped feather.

            Serena signed her name and watched in amazement as the parchment rolled up and exploded into golden smithereens, leaving a trail of yellow sparks. Lucius handed her the potion and told her, “Drink this, and be warned of the side effects.”  

            She opened the flask and gulped down the murky liquid, in an instant she felt her body shudder as if an explosion were happening inside her. Her skin itched and burned especially on her blue tail, her head ached in pain.

            After two excruciating minutes her tail began to separate, ripping its scaly surface and parting to show two long foreign objects at its wake. Lucius explained they were “Legs” and all humans had them, which was true her Prince had two legs like hers.

            Serena grabbed her throat in alarm as the water began to enter her lungs; she wasn’t prepared for this situation. What was she to do? She could not manage to swim all the way up for oxygen; it would take her precious minutes.

            Lucius saw her struggle and decided to help the poor girl before she died from lack of air; he placed his hands on her shoulders and leaned in. Her eyes widened as his lips pressed against her own, but soon relaxed when the feeling settled in. She had never been kissed and it felt wonderful, his lips were soft and moist.

            Serena’s train of thought was soon interrupted by a dark glow, and her vision became fuzzy. The second she blinked she lay on sand, her hair covering most of her body and face. Lucius’s touch was gone and she felt the blazing sun bestowing upon her.

            She stood up on trembling legs and fell back down; she got angry that she could not master the ability to walk as the humans. So she struggled to move the whole morning on weak legs, her determination strong.

            “Hold on, Dane!” A distant voice exclaimed and just around the corner appeared Prince James riding his mighty steed. Serena sat back down and hid her body in the long trenches of hair, her face flustered in embarrassment.  

            “What do we have here?” Prince James questioned aloud as the horse stopped in front of a young maiden, he had never seen such beautiful golden hair before. It was like spun silk glinting, he stared a bit more before getting off his steed and removing his long coat.

            He bent down and put it around her shoulders, “Here, you must be really cold.”

            She smiled and was about to reply Yes, but she couldn’t find her voice.  Serena frowned and tried to bring out her voice, Prince James raised his eyebrow in puzzlement. “Is something the matter?”

            She nodded her head and put a hand over her throat, she somehow managed to convince him that she could not speak. “So you are mute,” Prince James stated as he stood up and gave her a hand.

            Serena put her hand in his, feeling a shiver climb up her spine. “What is your name then?” He asked curiously. Serena glanced around and picked up a narrow stick on the sand, she wrote down her name in big letters, and Prince James nodded.

            “What a nice name, where did you come from Serena?” James asked and Serena almost melted into a puddle at the mention of her name coming from his luscious lips.

            She had a feeling that they would get along rather easily, he was sincere and comfortable to be around with. Not like Lucius, who sent frightful shivers up her body whenever his cold inky eyes gazed at her. 

A man's jealousy

A man’s jealousy~

 

            Lucius has become restless and troubled by the young girl, he has been prying into her relationship and the Princes, and all seemed too well. They both got along and had become too close in a matter of two days, if this kept on escalating he would soon lose his dear mermaid.

            He gazed at the crystal sphere; the image of her in a blue shaded gown with silk designs and light bows and her golden hair styled up with pearls and clips appeared. She was stunning he would admit, so much that he could drown in her beauty, but she was a child still growing.

            “Serena isn’t it a marvelous day?” The Prince asked the mermaid, who was clinging to his arm with a flustered expression. This irked the wizard and made his anger grow viciously; she was too close to that human.

            Serena smiled brightly something that seemed foreign to him since she did nothing but quiver in fear and set her lips in a thin wire when she was in his presence.

            “How would you like to be my special guest at the ball tomorrow, I’m sure my parents will approve of our relationship,” Prince James explained as he embraced her and brought her head against his chest. The wrenching feeling once again emerged from deep within Lucius and a flame ignited in his anger.  

            The entire ocean knew him for his magic but never before has someone actually achieved the terms and ended happily ever after, it was always a tragedy. And he made sure of making them fail…

            “Dmitri, Damion come here immediately!” He shouted and in less than a second the two eels rushed to their master. “Yes Master?” They asked in unison their heads bent low like servants.

            “It seems we will all go and visit our dear Serena,” Lucius grinned as a heap of grey smoke infiltrated their vision; everything was a big blur as screams filled the dark cave. One may think it was the work of madness…no it was more like darkness.   

Elegant Final

Elegant Final~

 

            It was noon and the final day to make Prince James kiss her and confess his love for her, would it work? She had only spent two and a half days with him, and if he didn’t do it soon she will be enslaved to the Dark Wizard.

            Prince James and she have had a delightful relationship, but she was deeply afraid that he only loved her as a friend or young sibling. He has only embraced her one time and since then has kept an arm length distance between them.

            Now as she sat down a chair facing the royal family table and Prince James she was having mixed feelings and regretting the decision of going to the Dark Wizard for help.

            The orchestra suddenly changed the song and she felt a light tap on her shoulder when she turned around she met a pair of onyx eyes,
