He bit his lower lip hearing what she said. He walked over to her, knelt infront of her and took her hands into his own. " Now you listen to me my love. It may be true that if things have not happend they way the did we may not be together. But they did and here you are. I would not have it any other way. I use her so often as a reminder to myself and to compare myself to you. To let you know what you are in store for. You are not her, and she isn't you. You are not just a second wife. I love you and the child we are having together. You'll never be second rate or anything of the sorts. You are you, and she was herself. Equal and strong in your own ways. " He kissed her hands softly as he looked into her eyes.
" I don't mean to make you feel that way and i'm sorry if it does. I'll always love her as much as i love you. Nothing will ever change that. I have plenty to remind me so if it would make you happy, i'll mind myself of refering to her so much. I want you happy always, and if this brings you sadness i'll correct it. "

Willow shook her head gently as she let Novakon hold onto her hands, "It's not like that darling... it's just me... I just don't... want to feel like I'm just your replacement wife. A lot has happened but you can't say you wouldn't have it any other way... if you had the chance to go back in time and prevent Kitiara from being poisoned you and I both know you would and she would be here and you and I would not be married. I understand that she will always have your heart... that you can not give it to me completely... I except that..." She said softly looking down.

He looked up at her and shook his head. If he could go back in time to prevent what happened to her from happening he wouldn't have changed a thing. He knew enough that things happen for a reason and to change those events could be trouble in the future. " Willow you are not a replacement. If given the chance to change the past it would have to remain as it is. I could not change what is meant to be. Yes she has part of my heart but so do you and Rose. But you have something Kitiara never could touch...you have my soul as well. I really beleive that if not for what happened....I could never have been truely complete without you. So never think badly on yourself. I love you with all that I am and can be. "
He reached up and caressed her face, tilting it ever so slightly so she could look into his eyes. When she looked she could see clearly that he meant every word he said to it's fullest. " If not for you, I would not know how to truely love another. To try and change what was would be a crime and a pain in my heart. It could never have been the same. " He leaned up and kissed her softly, gently placeing his arms around her waist. He didn't like seeing her so down and sadened by what he had said and the thoughts she had afterwards.

"I don't believe that Novakon... no mater how many times you try to deny it. You and I both know that she was being poisoned and it killed her and nearly killed Rose too. I don't for a moment believe that you wouldn't change anything if you had the chance. That is someone's life, and you can call it fate all you want. If we find that Rose is dead would you call that fate as well? Will you be able to live knowing it was what was meant to be as you put it?" She got to her feet and brushed down what she had on. "I don't except that answer" she said sounding rather upset.

He tensed and growled lightly. He stood and turned as she stood as well. He clenched his hands and walked away from her. She was being as hardheaded as himself and she did not beleive him. He stopped at the door but did not look back. " Beleive it or not but it's the truth. The most I would do is make sure that her last moments were spent with me at her side. I left her for only a moment when i promised i would not leave. I never got to tell her i love her, and we parted ways mad at each other. As far as Rose, yes i would have stopped her poisoning sooner than what did happen. So when you decide to beleive in what I have said, and how I feel about you let me know. "
He breathed in and out as his anger was bubbling lightly now. " Willow i love you with all of my heart and soul. That I could never have said to her because though I loved her with all of my heart....i was never truely complete. I never knew why till now. " He opened the door and stepped through it before letting it close gently behind him. Once the doors were closed he walked quickly out of the palace. He went right for the training area set up specifically for him where he unleashed his full power and rage upon that training course.

Willow shook her head once he had gone as she didn't understand him sometimes. She went to the window and glanced out to see him heading across the garden towards his training room. "My lady... we've got breakfast for you" A servant said to her as she turned a bit not at all in the mood to eat but knew she couldn't ignore her stomach even if she did feel sick. She nodded slightly and turned and left the room with the servant heading down to the dining room. Though the morning was like any other, calm and still and the birds that actually lived in that domain were singing. Though the stillness of the morning was broken with the sound of willows blood curdling scream that echoed over the grounds of the palace and scared the birds from area.

As he vented the sudden anger that had sprung up within him his lashing out had devastated half of the training area within moments. As he forced his power and his emotions back down below the surface the air was peirced by a scream. That scream was something he had never heard before but knew what it held. He spun on his heel and ran for the palace. He knew the voice that had fueled that scream and although he wasn't happy at the moment he had to make sure she was ok.
But that was a scream of something else. What had happened when he came out here? He thought and replayed the sound in his mind. She wasn't in their bedroom but somewhere down the hall. He reached out and gripped the frame of a door and used it to turn himself into the hallway without breaking stride. Within moments he hooked another corner and slid to a stop against the wall as his eyes caught sight of what had caused Willow to scream in such a manner. Dead center of the hallway, covered in blood and suspended there....was his son.
He stared at the sight before him not beleiving what he saw. His body leaning heavily on the wall he had slid into for his stop. His son...was suspended in the air, above the flor about waist height and dead. Blood dripped down what at first glimps would be invisible air and holes could be seen. His legs at the joints held holes in them, as did his waist, stomack, chest, and shoulders. All had holes in them, about the size of spears. At closer look though he knew what was wrong. Ice...spikes made of ice had been summoned under his sons body. He finally moved forward slowly, shakeing badly and his eyes fell upon a jaggaed set of cuts...made from talons or the like raked across his sons throat and between the spikes. Murdered by an ice Drathir and a strong one at that. Their powers didn't work too well in all this heat.
Blood mixed with water on the floor already due to the heat. Recent and under the gaurds noses and his own. But...why, why did this happen? He fell to his knees, trembling as tears began falling from his face. He began to see fire, sparks, rivers of lava in which was the blood of his kingdom. His breathing was slow at first but began to become rapid and deep. Hands clenching suddenly was all it took for the several gaurds that had blocked off the hallway took Willow and pulled her into the nearest room. Baring the door as that hall way was suddenly super heated and shaking as a roar of pain and anger flooded the palace itself. He was pissed off and there was no turning away from this blatent murder.

Willow couldn't breathe after the massive curdling scream she had let out. The sight of her step son, murdered before her. It was disgusting and gruesome, and it made her heart sink into the pit of her stomach. It wasn't like anything she had ever seen. Her hands touched him but his burning hot blood spilled onto her hands and arms which she quickly wiped on her pale blue dress. She felt herself trying to take a breath but she couldn't. She room fell dark as she suddenly fainted though a guard who had rushed to her when hearing her scream grasped hold of her as she fell, preventing a terrible spill to the floor. The guard yelled for help as he lifted up willow into his arms. her head and arms fell back limply from being unconscious. When Novakon arrived all hell was about to break loose. Guards and servants ducked into rooms and shut doors to protect themselves from his rage.
Willow had leaned up against the body and her dress was wet from the melting ice and the massive amounts of blood that got on her when she checked to see if he was dead. The guard leaned against the wall in the room he had ducked into and listened to the palace rattle from his lord's rage. From what had been seen, the heir to his throne was obviously murdered but Willow was out cold when he arrived and covered in blood herself but unknowingly to anyone else it wasn't hers though it almost looked like it was.

His rage and power scorched the walls and melted the ice within seconds. Luckily though this would not damage his sons body...only the clothing he wore. As his breath left his body he fell forward and pounded his fists into the floor. It was safe enough for the staff and others to come out. " This....will not end untill they all die...." His voice was cold as the ice that had killed his son. By the will of his memory and love he will kill the one responsible for this. The one responsible and any related to that person and accuainted to that person. He would wipe out an entire village if he had too.
" They will die for this....They will all die for this disrespect. I will see Talon, his family and his people suffer for this. I swear on the blood that was spilled here that they will pay by my hands and my hands alone! " He stood finally, his arms under his sons body lifting him up as he began to walk to the lower levels. To prepare his son for a kings burial was needed. And he would do everything himself.

Staff and Guards peered out when his rage died down, though many remained silent. As he carried his son into the sub levels of the palace maids rushed to aid the guard who stepped out holding Willow in his arms. "This isn't surprising." he said to a maid. "What isn't surprising?" She said to him as she walked beside him keeping willows head up to keep it from dangling back the way it did before, "That Lord Novakon once again left his wife in the lurch. Summon the medic, I was the first to arrive and I found her like this about to collapse. She might have been attacked and injured as well." he said as the maid stopped and put a hand over her chest having gone through it before when her first Lady Fire died. She turned to rush down the hall, slipping on the bloody wet floor, "medic!" She called out, "get a medic" She called out to the other members of staff.

He lay his son on the largest stone table. Polished and lightly padded as he began washing his sons body clean. With that done he set a fire around the table to keep others away and to let the body rest. He turned and sealed the chamber after leaving it. He was mad beyond beleif but he had to see to his wife as well. He moved quickly trying to find where she was. She had been covered in blood, hopefully it wasn't hers and she was fine. If not......He shook his head to clear those thoughts.

Maids where rushing down the hall with new soap and the medic had already been summoned. Willow had not been laid in her bed but in a guest room down the hall from her bedroom. The problem with the medic was that he himself had been on the other side of the palace assisting a servant who was in labor. Maids where at willow's side afraid to touch her or move her in case she was injured. Her dress was wet and ruined from the blood and her arms had been burned lightly from her step sons blood that burned with the same intensity as a fire, and though she was a lightning Drathir which was a very hot element but not like the fire drathirs.

He looked this way and that as he walked and followed the maids as well. Within moments he found her, in a guest room being looked after by the doctor. Lucky enough it was a good one and new as well. He entered the room and moved to her side, silent and gentle enough as he knelt beside her, taking her hands in his own. She could feel the heat...the rage that burned inside him from what has happened as he simply looked at her. And she saw murder, pain, rage all swimming in the fire he held.

"She's burned" The doctor said to him. "You'll have to let go of her hands... they will need treatment" He said getting Novakon to let go of her. "She's burned from the blood... but it seems this here along the sides of her arms... and the side of her neck it's a freeze burn. but if you notice it's in the shape of hands and fingers. A ice Drathir with hands of ice touched her." he said though Willow's eyes where closed. The maids were waiting just inside the room for the okay to carefully clean willow so she could be treated for her burns.

He growled his displeasure at being ordered but did so. He watched her closely, refuseing straight out to move away from her. He noticed what the doctor had pointed out and growled more seeing that she had indeed been targeted as well but had lived. " I am not stupid doctor. The same thing killed my son. Only afew ice drathirs could maintain their powers enough to do that to him and her and remain strong enough to get out of here fast. Just heal her and make sure she is in good health. " He looked at the maids and motioned them to come over and get her cleaned up.
