Chapter 71 - Are you a dunce? 71

Adam amd Daisy soon came to were I was waiting.

"You brought him?" I said pointing at Adam.

'He can help' Daisy said.

She touched my heart and closed her eyes. As she opened them she started walking. We followed her.

When she got to the dungeon door I said, "He's not down there I just searched the whole place."

She just kept walking. Adam placed a hand on my shoulder. "Trust her."

We followed her down and around then she stopped. 'He is in that wall.'

"I see" Adam reached up and pulled a lever and the wall moved. "This is an old part of the dungeon. Me and Max found this when we were kids. It has only been used once and that was to imprison the queen when we thought she was a boy."

Daisy continued to walk forward as Adam held the lantern to light the way. When we came to the only cell down here I called out. "Ax are you here?"

"Lae is that you. Please get me out before Jillian comes back."

I pull the key I stole out of my pocket and unlock the door. Ax rushes out and wraps his arms around me and then kisses me. I melt in his embrace.

"I love you, never ever forget that." He said.

"How are you better, did she give you the mulling berries." Adam asked.

"No, Mabel told me to fight it by thinking of the one I love and it worked. The only thing I hate now is Jillian."

"Let's get out of here." Adam says.

"Dad takes Daisy and Lae out. I am going to wait here to catch Jillian when she come back." Ax says.

"Then I am waiting with you."

"Be careful you two. I'll let your father and Henry know you are all right and if you don't come back in a short time I'm sending the whole Army after you." Adam said.

Adam and Daisy quickly left and leaving Ax and me alone in the dark. We found a corner to wait in.

He had me wrapped in his arms as if afraid to let me go. I could feel his breath on the back of my neck.

"Robert has the berries for you. When we get out you should take some to be sure the poison is all gone. I don't want you pushing me away again."

"Anything you want dear." he says.

"When will she be back?" I ask.

"Not real sure. She was getting some supplies. She did not realize that I loved her like a sister and the tarnell root would cause me to hate her too. I just do not know why I did not hate my father Robert. I could feel the hate for my other Dad."

"Could it be part of his power. You can't push him and he has a way of making you feel calm." I say

"My love, you may be right."

We then heard footsteps.

"My dear dear Tenninax, I have some food for you. How are you feeling?" Jillian said.

Ax did not answer just held me tight.

"I will pass the food through the dinner door. I kind of lost the key but I will find it before Time is up." She said.

As she bent down I used my power to distract her and Ax wrapped his arms around to hold her. She struggled and threw Ax off the threw something at me and I felt pain and yelled out.

Ax froze then used his power to freeze her in place. Why did he not think of this before. He tie her up as she screamed she was going to kill me.

He them comes over to me and finds a knife in my chest. I am bleeding really back.

Because We were taking so long Adam sent

out guards to meet us and they took her to a regular cell to be held while he carried me up to Lillian and some healers.

Lillian treated Ax with the Mulling berries while the healers worked on saving my life.

I was soon back in the cross roads with Mindy.

"Oh Uncle Rose you did not listen" she said.

"Listen to what?" I asked.

'When the Sun hides it's self in the day.

A friend will betray a friend I say.

Death will knock but only once.

Be smart and think don't be a dunce.

To save your heart you must try.

To use your gift of being sly.'

"You were a dunce I am afraid you are dead now. I can not heal you anymore." She said.

"No I can't be dead. I just saved Ax. I can't be dead." I pleaded.

Then Mabel came walking out. "I'm afraid child she is right. You died. She can not heal a dead person but I can."

"You can heal me so I can go back to Ax?" I ask.

"I could but then tell me why I should." She said.

"Because we need each other. I love him and want to be beside him for all our lives."

"You knew he would be in danger but not once but twice you ran away." she walked over and a chair appeared and she sat down.

"So because... I see I don't deserve him, I never did. Where do I go know?" I ask looking around.

"You giving up again?" she asked.

"I am broken and I know it. I tried to be what he wanted and needed but I failed. I don't know how to be strong for him. I don't know how to be strong for anyone."

"By standing by their side. It is ok to be upset at them but you stay and talk it out. Can you do that?" she said.

"I can only try. I am still learning but I want to be with him always." I am in tears now.

"So you will keep learning when I send you back?"

"Yes, I want to be the best husband I can be for him. I want to learn how to trust and love him with all my heart."

"Then I guess you are not a dunce after all. Good thing you are not dead. The healers have patched you up. Go back and open your eyes child and live."

I blink a few times and look up into Ax's face. I smile and he kisses me. I was happy to have my love back.

We decided to spend a few days here before going back and Ax took me to meet his sister Anna.

"Telinanna I want you to meet my soulmate Laevigatae. Lae this is my sister Telinanna"

"It nice to meet you. May I?" I said pointing at her tummy.

She smiled and a calm came over me as she shook her head.

I placed my hand, "Mindy I hope you can here me. I want to thank you for healing not only my heart and mind but healing my body faster too. I met your mother she is very beautiful. I'll tell her all about you."

"You met my child and it's a girl?" Anna said.

"Yes, she will be a healer. A powerful healer." I said.

"I have told nobody about this. Cindy said she would be powerful but I believe you when you say you've met her."

Daisy took to Anna right away and I really did not want to take her away but it was time to head back to Grey Castle and our life there.

Jillian was sentenced to two years and we transported her back with us. She had really gone crazy over all of this.

Ax and I lived together for a few more months then he asked me to marry him. His family threw a big wedding. I got to meet King Maximum and Queen Beth. The Oracle Cindy was there but by something called astro planning. I did not get to meet her husband and children.

Life was finally happy for me and my Sister. When Daisy turned 16 she went to live with Lillian and Harry. She would train to be an advisor for the king. But that there is another story.
