While Rutherford was conversing with his old friend and trying to investigate what he meant when he said those suspicious words, his lovely daughter was flat on the bed. Inside her room, Yvonne laid on the comfortable bed and shut her eyes to relax every single overworked muscle in her body. The moment that she and Raylene had entered the house, Mrs. Jacinth and a couple of other maids rushed in their direction. The young maids had accompanied the older maid to watch their little miss as she tried…-

What were Rutherford and Desmo talking about? To understand that we would have to know about the course of events that took place after Yvonne started her final laps around the training ground. When Yvonne had passed the canopy and her parents, that marked the beginning of the ninth round. She huffed and puffed as she dragged her exhausted and weary body onwards. 'I still have time! I can make it, so come on Yvonne!' She cheered for herself and continued jogging. Her ankles were swollen and…

Damien smiled at his friend who had asked this question and then gave him a positive nod. Topher's excitement when he saw this gesture of his friend's made him jump up inside the carriage itself. "So he allowed you to stay at the dormitories with us for the entire month?" He inquired just to make sure that he wasn't hallucinating. His excitement and joy faded and turned to confusion when he saw Damien shaking his head. Topher tilted his head to a side and glanced at him with puzzled eyes which…

Inside the carriage that was heading towards the west of the Capital, two young boys sat in deep silence. They had started their journey more than an hour ago and now they were nearing their destination, the Royal Academy of Rosenhyde. Howard St. Claire looked at his friend with his deep blue eye which seemed like troubled waters during a raging storm. He had just learned why the man whom his father had invited to be Yvonne's tutor was named as 'Spawn' by the members of his squadron. "So they…

*Blegh* Hunched over with her arms holding her stomach, Yvonne began retching. 'That was a really bad idea!' She cursed herself for greedily gulping down the contents of the glass just before her class. At that time, she was not aware of the drastic and dangerous task that she would be assigned. Hence she had thoughtlessly accepted the kind offer made by the Butler who also was unaware that such a cruel fate would follow their little miss. The old man wanted to serve his little miss a glass…

'He wants to kill me!' Yvonne cried out as she tried to catch her breath. It had only been half an hour since she had started the tasks that she had been asked to complete before the limit of one hour yet here she was out of breath and on the verge of giving up. The events of a little more than a half-hour before this moment, Yvonne sat under the well-built canopy that was made for them today. Butler Limo served her the pulpy juice of fresh strawberries that were grown in the small garden that…

As Marquess Samed made his way out of the throne room, he met a little figure walking in their direction with vigor and enthusiasm. "Greetings, Prince Fritzen." Sullivan bowed his head as he greeted the future King and present Prince of this beautiful Kingdom. Prince Fritzen seemed like he was in a hurry to reach someplace but when he saw the man who had greeted him, he paused to greet him in return. "Greetings, Marquess Samed. You must be on your way to the Rose Palace." He recognized his guess…

"What was so urgent that the Marquess had to send his messenger yesterday asking for a parlez with me?" A gruff yet surprisingly soothing voice echoed in the large empty hall. Marquess Sullivan Samed looked up after he finished the proper greeting that was fit to be given to the King of Rosnehyde. He had entered the magnificent-looking Throne room along with Duke Brodie a few moments ago and now, he was standing before the King himself. Sitting on the throne was the man who would soon be touching…

Rutherford observed in silence as his wonderful wife carried their child away. He continued gazing at them until they turned around the corner and disappeared from his sight. Now that they were out of the hearing range, Rutherford turned around and glared at his friend. Captain Desmo Reel smiled at his old friend as he raised his hand and patted his shoulder. "You invited me to your place after so many years and it was all for training that little child?" He shook his head in disappointment.…

Yvonne watched as the people whom she was expecting answers from all left in the carriages they had come in. Damien and Topher sat in one carriage while Taylor and her brother, Howard sat in another. 'What was it that Topher wanted to say before he was banished by that grinch of a man?' She wondered and then shot a hateful glance at Captain Reel. Raylene's sniffles brought her back from her thoughts and she walked towards her mother. 'She is so sensitive and mild!' She inferred as she looked at…
