Chereads / Not A Prey. / Chapter 11 - Chapter Eleven

Chapter 11 - Chapter Eleven

Its been two weeks since the attack on the prince.

I have been very busy managing the workshop.

Sir Mike was talented in mixing medicines. A lot of people from within and outside the kingdom often request for medicines.

I was lucky to be working for him. I was also among the few who knew he was a wizard.

For two weeks i could not stop thinking about Jonathan. i missed him so much. I have waited two weeks for him to reach out and he didn't .

I was beginning to feel restless. Helen always teased me saying that i was love sick.

I had already delivered some medicine to customers who had requested and was free.

After battling with my self for a long time I decided to reach out to him.

"zelius Misxo azrat" i said.

Silence

"zelius Misxo azrat" i tried again. "A pure white dove flew in from the window.

"It worked! Oh my god!", i exclaimed filled with happiness.

I wrote a letter, tied it to the dove's leg and let it go.

All through the day, i was nervous. What if he does not reply.

I decided to go to the kitchen to distract myself.

I have long realized that the kitchen was the fastest place to get information.

"I heard the prince is in critical condition", said Cherry.

"I pray for him everyday when i go to the temple " said madam Jessica

"Is it obvious who the culprit is, i will bet my left eye that it is the prince's uncle", said another cook, but i did not know her name.

Madam Jessica shushed her immediately. "You can't say things like that, you would get your self in trouble".

"What do you think?" I ask Helen

"I don't know, there are rumours that the prince's uncle is planning to take over the kingdom, but they are just rumors" she whispered.

Later in the night, as i was getting ready to sleep, the dove flew on my window.

I happily detached the letter on its leg

"Thank you dove " i whisper to it.

It bent its head to the right, made a coo and then flew away. The letter was very short and clear.

"Okay, Lets meet up at the laake. Tomorrow by noon. Jonathan."
