Hi i am writing a series called the willows. is it good this is part 1 of what i have written. there are 2 more.
she clutched her necklace tighter than ever as she bowed down in fear. her other hand was shaking as she said, " all hail king tusk, my new father." he chuckled and said, " my beautiful daughter, the most beautiful girl in the kingdom, is right. i am the most powerful king in all of the land now." he went on with a full speech that seemed like nonsense to irene willows. then he gave irene a nasty smile as if he was going to throw her into the darkest dungeon in the castle. but this doom was not her fate. she walked up to her room after that horrid speech was said. she looked out at her window, unsure she would ever see a friendly face again. a gust of wind blew in her face as she slumped on her bed.
just then she heard a door slam shut and faint footsteps, getting closer and closer. she turned around, and a few seconds later king tusk popped into the doorway. "hello, my sweet daughter, i saw you run out to the stairs. i had to end a little early to see what you were up to."
" king tusk, if i " she started up but was quickly interrupted by him. " i am your father, and i would like to be called so." in her mind behind all her rushing thoughts, she wanted to scream, you are anything but my father as i would never call such a disgusting and horrible man anything like that! instead, she calmly said, " right. father. i came here for peace as there was too much noise with everyone cheering for you." she decided it would be best to erase what she was saying before and make up a reason as to why she was up here. irene was angry with herself for not expressing her opinion, but she knew that would happen later, and it did.
she got up from her bed to close her window. king tusk waved a goodbye and headed out. shutting the door behind him, she sighed. she thought about what just happened. " am i too weak. to fight against a man who killed my parents. he covered himself in lies. and i can't even say my thoughts. i am turning into this villain! "
she let that thought go. tears came out of her eyes like the sun comes out from behind a cloud. anything to do with her parents made her cry an ocean. sitting around puddles of misery, irene wiped her face. with dried up tears that raced down her cheek before, irene looked like she just got sunburned. she looked red and swollen, and she didn't notice until she walked into the bathroom to clear her face.
"stop your crying! you're not like him. you will escape this dreadfulness that has been brought upon yourself," irene willows whispered to herself.
she looked up at the ceiling, wishing she could see her parents looking back, but all she could see was the dull grey her new father painted. her beautiful blue eyes focused on the window in her bedroom. irene's mind was blank. she started to paint a picture in her head. a picture where she lay with her parents in a field of flowers. then rain comes and king tusk is standing there. he lights up the field and waits for it to catch fire. the field is a dark forest. the woods burn up with her parents as she starts to run. bam. an explosion nearby causes her to look back for a moment. here come the tears again.
opening her eyes, she realizes the tears were real. dripping down her face, the tears seemed endless.
