Chapter 8 - Bonus Chapter

My Dearest Zeke,

I hope this letter finds you well for I fear it may be may be my last. I've never been overwhelmed by this many emotions in my entire life and so I want you to remember everything I write like a melodious tune stuck in your head. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH ZEKE WALKER.

I guess I was right all those years when I thought you were a thief because, you stole my heart. I've loved you since the day I was willing to risk everything for you and I am so sorry that it to me too long to realise it my love. My one truest regret is that I didn't have the courage tell you when I did and now it's too late. How silly. You're willing to marry me even when I had never told you I loved you, you were always to perceptive for your good.

My love, as you already know, I am a princess of Darinton and as a princess it is my sole duty to serve my people and as a result of the circumstances I've been placed under , I am now officially married to the crown prince of Aragorn as solicited in order to end the ruthless two year war between our kingdoms. Apparently, my hand was specifically requested for, the reason why? I have no idea of any sort. Funny how you walked away, only for me to be pulled into the very place you left.

It pains me to see all our plans being torn apart by the single decision of my father but as a princess I have to put my people first. I know I have no right to say this but my solemn request is that you forget me and how much I love you. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me since mom and you will always have a place in my heart and memories. But I am no longer attainable. You and I can never be together. 

I never thought I'd end up falling in love with someone through their letters but I just couldn't help it with how perfect you are, flaws and all. I will forever remember the day we met. The way you made that night better with your silly antics and cold demeanor or the way you always managed to make my day over a hundred times better with just a few words while being miles away.

I love your gorgeous chocolate brown eyes that twinkle in the light like stars in a night sky, your long, silky, smooth to the touch, raven hair, how you make me feel so safe and loved and wanted with every word you write. Words can't possibly begin emphasize how much I love you and am grateful for you and a single letter possibly can't hold all I have to say.

I remember I used to thank God everyday for sending me someone as amazing as you. Your words, spoken and unspoken are permanently engraved into my soul. Oh how I wish I could tell you all this face to face. That I could see you once more if only just to cry in your embrace or to rant about how unfair this is.

If you're worried about me, don't. I promise I won't lash out on anyone and I will try my best to do as I am told and be a good wife. That doesn't mean that I will take shit from anyone though. I have been bullied and silenced enough but no more. The crown prince wants something from me and I'm going to find out what. Then I'll make sure he can never have it.

I wish you good luck in your future endeavors my love and although it hurts me to say, I do hope you find someone who is actually right for you and someone who's not broken and damaged like... like me. Someone attainable and deserving of you. You will forever have my heart Zeke. It belongs to no one else but you.

No longer your one and only,

Alyssa.
