Liana sat in her living room alone after everyone left.
"Am sorry I didn't realize you were growing inside of me, it's my first time " she said rubbing her belly.
She chuckled, "Do you think your father would be happy to find out you exist? Just like me, we are both raised by crazy parents, so can we be good parents "
Liana sighed, "If he was normal then it would make things easy in raising you but his not. So am scared of what you might look like after you're born. I have been trying to summon him but it's like that went with him now all I do is just think and think until my brain shut down ".
She fell silent and watched the sunset then dozed off.
.....
" Liana, Liana wake up " Gerald's voice whispered.
She opened her eyes, "Why is it so dark did you sneak into my house " she said.
"Your house, woman I want to know why am here," he said.
Liana looked at him, "Why are you here?" she asked.
Gerald sighed, grabbing her head he moved it around the room, "See, do you notice anything different in your home " he asked.
Liana pushed his hands away and looked around her.
The room was clean and huge. It held two enormous windows that reflected the moon's light into the room. The bed she was laying on was in the center covered with light bed curtains. Candles were everywhere to give light to the room.
"What is this place and what happened to my apartment?" she asked getting up.
"How could you bring me here in my pajamas, it's embarrassing. What if my companions see me as this " Gerald argued.
"Bring you were, Gerald. I don't even know such an ancient place in my life " she said.
Gerald walked to here, "Liana you can't just bring us to the Underworld like that ".
Liana stopped him, " Underworld? We are here .the. we can find Xavier and his mother," she said moving to the door.
Gerald held her hand, "Where are you going, the king of this place in case you have forgotten is strict on intruders and doesn't like anyone to come uninvited in his palace, especially someone like you, so you being here and moving around aimlessly is like giving your self to kill ".
" So what do you want me to do, I want to see Xavier," she said.
Gerald looked around, "Whose room is this you even bought us in? Your dress is still dressed in your office clothes while am in my pajamas. If we move around like this right now the guards will know we are intruders "
He moved to where he expected to find some clothes.
Liana stood still as he draped the cloak over her body and then her head.
"You need to hide, am going to help you find his room then wait outside," he said.
After he changed they walked out to the hallway.
"Follow me and don't say anything," he said. Liana nodded and followed in silence.
They moved passing maids and other people inside the palace. Everything was adored in gold and colored in white. Portraits of Xavier and his father were hung across the hall as they walked. She stopped suddenly in front of a huge one, it was a woman dressed in a blue gown with a golden crown on her head. Her long black hair fell. her shoulders with red eyes calmly staring back at who was looking at it.
She was so beautiful Liana gasped while looking at it.
"His mother and Queen of this place. Don't let her beauty deceive you. She's more dangerous than father and son" Gerald said leading her away.
They walked past the other room until they arrived at a large door.
"This is his room, right now I think he mushy be having dinner with his parents. So he not inside you can wait there until he does " he said pushing her inside.
Liana stood at the door scanning the room.
She felt her heart drop, it was a replica of his room. The room where he took care of her after saving her.
"Even the curtains match " she laughed. Slowly Liana moved to his bed laying down she giggled, "Roses "
Gerald stood at the door thinking about what to do but before he could he heard Xavier's voice in a distance.
"They are done already " he muttered before leaving.
