I will have to watch him closer from now on. I looked down at Celestia and smiled. I got lucky with this beautiful woman. I closed my eyes and fell asleep. I got woken up by Celestia getting out of my arms. I looked up at her with one open eye. 'Where are you going?' I asked her in my morning voice. She jumped a bit before she turned around to face me. She leaned in and kissed me, i kissed her back and wrapped my arms around her waist, and pulled her closer to me. She giggled rubbing my cheek softly. We pulled away and i let her go, i got up after stretching out. We went to our bathroom and we got ready for the day together. We went to the dining room, I opened the door for her and we saw chaos. Food fight, the food is everywhere. 'What the hell is going on?!' I asked/yelled. I saw Marcus and other guards stop in their tracks and look at us in horror. 'Well? I'm waiting.' I added. The guard bowed down looking embarrassed at the floor. 'I'm sorry Arthur... we got a bit carried away.' Marcus spoke up rubbing the back of his head. 'A bit? Marcus this room is a damn mess!' I spoke up. 'I want you and the damn guard to clean this mess. Only you two. If i see someone else help you two the punishment will get worse. Did i make myself clear?' I said with a hit of annoyance in my voice, I saw them nod. They started to clean the room. I turned to the maids and told them to bring the breakfast to the garden, I also told them to notify the other about the change. Me and Celestia went out to the garden and waited for breakfast in the picnic area. We heard people running to us, i looked up and i saw Taraji, Espen, and Jackson run to us. I smiled a bit, I'm glad that they clicked fast and became friends. Jackson is very sweet to Espen, he treats him like a king. They greeted us and sat down around the table, the maids came to us with the newly made breakfast. They placed the food on the table and we all thanked them, mental note ''I will have to pay them twice for today''. We ate while shooting and sharing jokes around the table.
After the breakfast, we have decided to go for a ride. We all went to the stables and got our own horses ready for the ride. Once we got on our horses and galloped away. The weather was just perfect for a ride, it was a nice cool breeze. I laughed a little bit when I saw everyone riding the wind. It looks amazing from here, it was so relaxing on the ride here. The ride is fun, especially when everyone is having a good time. We got on the beach and walked in a nice tempo so our horses would rest a bit too. Our horses played in the water too. 'How about a race?' Asked Jackson. We all nodded and got in a line. 'Okay....One...Two...THREE!!' With that we all galloped away. Espen and Jackson fell behind, me, Celestia and Taraji were head in head. But Taraji turned her head to us with a smirk. 'HYA!' She screamed and she left us in the dust. I laughed knowing we all lost and that Taraji won. She was already waiting for us at the end of the beach.
She got of her horse and waited for us, her horse was lose playing in water. She stood there with a smirks on her face. We got of our horses and let them walk freely on the beach. We took our shoes off and ran on the sand, splashing water on each other and having fun.
After some time we all sat down under a tree to rest. We saw our horses goofing around, we laughed at them but it was nice to see how they play. We sat on the beach for an hour or two before returning back to the castle. When we returned i walked to the dining room to check on Marcus and the guard, but when i opened a door.....I saw something i wish i never did. Marcus was....
