I rode with Logan in front of me, mother in between father and I and Maxwell to my other side. I feel trapped but I know that I need to stay with Mother to keep her save and Maxwell would stick with me as well.
"Logan!" I hear and I looked over as Queen Breanna rode up beside us.
"Queen Breanna." Logan and I greeted her.
"Diana, Nicodemus, Delegates Tacal, Carniola, Norman, and Albert. Max my friend it is good to see you!" She said smiling at him.
"Breanna greetings." Maxwell said and the others blessed her with a good night.
"I see you are all ready for this." She smiled at us.
"Yes but we need to keep moving or we will be late. She reminds us.
I looked up at the sky end tilted my head. Yes and no my friend. I said looking up there.if I'm reading the Stars right we have about another 3 hours before The time limits up.
She also looked at font the sky tilted her head and then nodded. "True true but it's always best to be a little early. She said.
Especially when you're having issues with that particular a king or queen I think we all with the round looking at the other side to see cream Nightshade on the other side of us.
"Queen nightshade." I said calmly.
"Lady Diana." she spoke calmly and with some respect finally. "What has happened over the last few weeks?"
"Nice blessing to You Queen Nightshade and what exactly do you mean?" Logan asked her.
"The monster of the northern Wasteland is no longer visiting our northernmost border." She said looking at us. "What happened?"
"The monster of the northern Wasteland was my dumbass brother. As for what happened to him, I killed him. Logan said this will make you happy queen Brianna. We found my mother."
"ExQueen Aurora has been found?" She all but demanded
"Yeah I found her hiding in the wall."
"She was in the wall? How did she get in it?"
"There was a door that had been grown over from plants and trees and what not she was able to get into the door how no one ever found it before I don't know. Though with how it was covered it did hide it very well. How she found it truly is the question."
"Apparently she had found her mate and they had a child." Maxwell said. "Then Oliver found them and killed the father. He almost killed the kid that almost killed his mother. That's when Logan killed him."
"So you have a new Young Brother?" She asked him.
"Yes I have a very very young brother now. He said calmly. You remember seeing Xavier, the young boy that Lauren had when we had the bloodbounds show up."
"Yes I remember seeing the young boy."
"He is around the same age as my new brother."
"That is young." She nods and hums as we ride.
We were coming to a city and the guards there glared as we passed them.
"I see they are as welcoming as their King." Tacal mutters as we ride.
"If that is not true." Nicole agreed with him.
"I swear to the stars if they try anything." I muttered.
"Calm down, they haven't done anything yet." Mother muttered to me.
"Yet being the key word." I told her.
"I know." She agreed.
"You keep your head, Love." Logan said.
"Of course but if I see di…" I stopped that word coise and sighed. "If I see that sexist apprentice diplomat I do not promise not to try and kick his teeth in if he says something!"
"What were you going to say?" Mother asked me.
"I swear my memories are affecting my word choices." I huffed.
"Memories?" Queen Breanna asked.
"Yea when I got my magic back my memories came with them… Not that I want most of them." I sighed.
"Why? Not the splendor you hoped for?" Queen nightshade asnarked.
"For the first 35 years, yes. Then I had to watch my Father be brutally murdered and sold as a sex slave as a child." I spat at her. "You tell me why I don't want to remember 90% of my memories." I spat at her, making her do a double take. "Not everyone gets to live a cushioned life Queen Nightshade so as my captors like to say when the children get whiney Take your noses down from the clouds and get your head out of your ass."
Everyone looked at me, even Logan, before Queen Breanna started to laugh. "Oh Diana I love you and she's the right niece." SHe said glaring at her. "Perhaps you should pull back on the crude vocabulary though. "
"Trust me I am working very hard to control the language that I do not desire to keep using the language I keep hearing in my sleep." I rolled my eyes.
"I am sure." She agreed with me.
"I get it, I need to be more humble." She huffed.
"Yes we do not need another Queen Noctas." Father half joked.
"If I ever get to that level please someone please slap me senseless." She said.
"I would be more than happy to do so." I grinned at her.
SHe looked at me leaning back a little then sighed. "Thank you Lady Arcar." She said as we came to the capital city.
"Greetings and Night's Blessings." King Tantibus said as our groups met.
"Greetings and Night's Blessing King Tantibus." Logan, Breanna, and queen Nightshade said first as we all dismounted.
"Icarus." Father said, smiling at him.
"Greetings Uncle Icarus." I said helping mom down from the horse.
"Nicodemus Diana! He said hugging me and Father. "You should come visit more!" He glares at my father.
"Oh please you and I know your wife hates me."
"I would say hate is too strong a word, Prince Nicodemus. I swear you two and your brother were chaos when you were younger. Diana!"
"Hello Aunt Natali." I said hugging her.
"So who is our guess?" Uncle Icarus asked.
"This is my Biological Mother Coraline Dragon, the delegate for the Witch Dragon clan." I tell them. "And yes I am getting my memories back and no I don't want to talk about it. Mother this is King Icarus Tantibus and Queen Natali Tantibus, my Father's best friend and the woman who taught me to be a Lady." Uncle's face turned dark but I continued. "And no she did not give me up. I was taken from her and my Dad as a young one."
"Oh." He looked at her and nodded.
"And this is Delegate Tacal of the Werewolves. This is Albert the human delegate, then we have Norman the witch diplomate. Then we have the Guards Jason, Paul, Tony, and Nick. then we have Chef Vicky."
"Greetings and Night's Blessing." Uncle Icarus said.
"Greetings and Night's Blessing." Just about everyone said but Jason was glaring over my right shoulder. I look over my right shoulder and see a hunter glaring at us.
"Well this is going to be fun." I grinned and broke from the group. "Excuse me Sir but do you know where we need to meet with the king because there is not anyone else here." He said nothing but spat at me. "Well aren't you rude." I said, wiping my face. "I am Lady Diana Arcaria, First Lady of the Northern Clan, and I want to try that again."
He snarled at me. "You are no lady." He spat.
"You speak that way again to my Niece and Heir and I will have your tongue." Uncle Varance hissed from behind him as he and his group came out of the shadows. The hunter stumbled away from us.
"I apologize." A young male said, pulling the hunter away from us. "I believe you were not expected for another hour so we did not have the greeting party here. I am Prince Riley."
"My Prince." The hunter said.
"Shut up, You insulted the head of the northern lady knights, we do not need that kind of clan incident!" Prince Riley snarled.
"At least someone remembered." Elder Reene chuckled.
"Not only is she the Leader of the Lady nights she is the heir to the Torant clan, the mate to be of the northern king and the heir to one of the witch clans in the outside world." Uncle tells them.
"Forgive my foolish friend here Lady." He said I could hear the gears moving in his head on how to fix this issue.
"Worry not myself and every lady night that has come to compete in the tournament are ready for the dislike though I would be careful spitting on them some of them will start a fight for that disrespectful gesture and he should be glad my Father did clock him." I grinned at the hunter flashing my fangs at him.
He said nothing but he pulled away from his prince and the prince nodded to him and he took off. "Please let the stable hands take your mounts and I will lead you all to the castle." He said to the group.
"Of course." Logan nodded to him.
