The next day, Amber-ruby felt much better compare to yesterday. She had to recovered before going to orlie-gham.
Ace left early , he was going to do what they talked about last night, convince his father to sign a decree. So he left early this morning .
She thought of all the revelations of last night. YEMET KINGDOM using magic, Garyl that wants to have superpowers and Owen being a Yemetian.
.
.
.
Last Night.
"Huh??" She wondered "How? If YEMET kingdom and Irischester Land are enemies. Two ennemis." She added.
Owen lips curved with a faint smile after her words.
"I was banned from YEMET" he said as if it was a normal thing with the tune of his voice calm.
"Why?" Her face turning from a surprise to sad.
"I did something prohibited and I got banned. Fortunately for me , the prince, save me. I think I was 15years old" he directed his eyes toward Ace as for Ace to confirm it.
He responded with a nod.
"What have you done that needed you to be expelled from this kingdom" the answer that gave Owen made her to get even more curious.
"Are you from the police? Stop disturbing him with silly questions" Ace said.
"But.."
"No." He cut her.
"Okay , okay. I wouldn't insist" she said lifting her hands as a sign of surrender. "But , do anyone else knows that you're from YEMET?" She added.
"No one" he simply said.
.
.
.
As she thought of last night, something came inside her head.
"It means the General is also hiding who's he for real" She said to herself "When I think that he has been here for years, nobody knowing that he's coming from YEMET, the number one ennemi of Irischester." She was making to and fro movements in her chamber like a haunted ghost. She paused " How did they met? Ace and Owen. More important, how has Ace trusted someone coming from the ennemi" she shuffled her hairs in frustration. "So many questions with no responses. I know, Ace will never tell me their story" she sat on her bed.
She looked at the time and it was already midday and Ace hasn't returned. She was already bored, She stayed in this chamber all the morning .
Ace told her to stay and rest .
"He thinks it's easy to stay in this chamber all the day ?" She lifted her eyebrow.
"It's easy"
She blanched a little then She turned to the direction of the voice . She saw Ace that was lining on the door, his arms crossed.
"For how long have you been here?" She asked
"Enough to see that you are complaining" he walked toward her and carried her in his arms.
"Heh!!" She exclaimed."What are you doing?"
"I'm bringing you to a place where you wouldn't be bored" he simply replied
"Put me down! I can walk"
"No"
"Ace!!!"
"Stay quiet" he ordered.
Knowing that she couldn't win this battle, she allowed him to carry her like a baby of 2months that couldn't walk on his own.
They arrived behind the mansion, they was a forest. It was so beautiful, the birds singing, butterflies fluttering their wings. The gentle wind that passed made the leaves of the tress to almost dance.
"Woow" she looked at the surroundings with an amazing look.
Ace gently dropped her on the grasses near a creek. She touched the water that was flowing, she then carried the water on her hand and poured it on her face. The freshness of the water made her feel very good and relax.
"How do you feel?" He asked
"I'm feeling better. The pain on my back had disappeared. I think we can even go tomorrow"
"No.. we will go in two days, the doctor said you have to get proper rest and in the castle you are just going to be stressed over"
She agreed with him .
"Has the king accepted?" She asked . He sighed and sat on the grass.
"He signed but it wasn't easy" he pressed his hands on the ground and took a position as if he was leaning on something.
"I had to tell him that his heart was now to fragile to handle certain things as the Ethysr and that he should give me the full power to handle it for him since I'm not yet the king" he explained.
"He hesitated, told me that he 'so brother Garyl' will not appreciate passing through me before getting the minerals"
"He really trust his brother" she said feeling bad for the king. " if he only knows that his brother want to ruin him. I think he will really die from heart attack"
"The worse about that is , if I tried to tell him that his brother is a traitor he will not even trust me" Ace clenched his fist.
"Don't worry we are assembling proof and we will stop him" she tried to recomfort him.
"Stop him before he become one type of 'Superman' after the ritual" he said
She chuckled and then said "He will not because the last thing that he needs for his ritual is you and I don't think you will get easily catch like a simple fish, isn't it"
"I'm not a fish but a dangerous grizzly" he smirked then amber-ruby rolled her eyes and shook her head with a smiled.
Suddenly his phone vibrated. He took it and read the message, he then kept back the phone.
"Who was that?" She asked with much casualty .
Ace raised his eyebrows "And since when you became a policewoman?" He asked.
She smiled again "I thought it was something related to our affairs"
"Recently, you became too curious and the stubbornness increases even much"
She shrugged.
"It's not with our affairs. It is Eva , asking me if I will come in their cottage."
"A cottage?" Her eyes glittered
"Yes, every 1 months in a year we meet there with some common friends. It's now some kind of a routine but during these past years I haven't been going there"
"Where's the cottage situated?"
"Here in Nightinon"
"And was Logane going too?"
"Of course"
She stood up, her eyes was shimmering with joy. She never went to a chalet before. So it will be her first time.
"Why are you so happy? It's just a chalet"
She glanced at him with bad eyes and then looked him. "Just a chalet? I have never been in a chalet. My mother and I always planned to go on vacation in a chalet but not enough money to do that"
"But now..." she lifted her hands up as if she was praising God "one of my dream will come true" she had a childish smile on her face.
Ace rolled his eyes at the scene he's seeing.
She then turned back to him. " So, never tell it again that's it's just a chalet" she pointed a finger at him displeased .
She wanted to move toward him but she make a false step. Fortunately for her she felt directly on Ace body.
She lifted her eyes toward his face. They were so closed, she could feel his breath on her face and that turned her cheeks red like a tomato.
