469 A Hearing After a relatively short car ride, the car pulled up in front of a petite flower shop with a simple white sign to identify it. The little shop was situated between two calm-looking stalls with fewer people walking down the street than they’d gotten used to in the city. Aside from the dainty sign, the rest spoke for itself, roaring louder than the meagre label. For the flowers that lined the door shone with a radiant colour healthier than Beatrice had ever thought possible. They almost…

468 A h-healthy appetite? After that short outburst of energy, Peter and Lyla didn’t need any further instructions. To try and cope with the grey-eyed woman’s communication barrier, they assumed she could have been related to Honour. With that in mind, her value became significantly greater. If it had been any other pair of humans, perhaps they wouldn’t have helped her with this request. But both of them had been saved by the young florist once before and they owed her greatly for it.…

467 Something about a Flower shop After introducing the two people to Beatrice, the nurse looked at Peter. They seemed to have a silent conversation with their eyes before the nurse sighed, “I’ll go start working on your release documents. You can talk with them and figure out what kind of arrangement you’ll have. I’ll also be giving you prescription drugs and instructions on how you are to handle yourself for the first few weeks after being discharged. Make sure to take it easy. You’re…

466 Will power... and the Power of Love The beeping sound of a machine and white empty lifeless walls. An overwhelming lack of disturbance that only cultivated a disturbing silence. Nearly two years spent in the same place, recovering from an near-death injuries and trauma. A neverending loop of pain and agony… a state which, for some reason, was better than death. The memory of her last conscious night echoed through her mind with a furious reverberation that threatened to shatter her…

465 Talking to the Moon Cole sat on a well-crafted mahogany chair at the top of the balcony joined to the Lycaon king’s chambers. Structures of this nature were difficult to build into the circular nature of the Great Arena but a few still stuck out… just like the one that he now had the luxury of using. The king stared into the sky, his thoughts wandering aimlessly in his mind. Thoughts that were his and his alone. Blocked from the comforting mind link, free from any manner of eavesdropping.…

464 Lina’s Trust The nurses came in quickly and began to monitor his vitals, “Hey, sir, relax. You’re safe here,” one of them went in a surprisingly soothing voice. It was the same nurse from before… If it hadn’t been for the fact that they’d seen her attitude towards Victor earlier, the Seeker would have been fooled. ‘She’s a pro,’ Madeline was amused, watching her work. This skill was similar to the smile a professional waiter was supposed to wear. While she was impressed,…

463 Swayed by Another “The thing that’s keeping us from saying anything to our loved ones sounds very familiar to the divine rules that bind the gods from helping humanity directly…” it all made sense to Honour and the prince could see it. So much so that Drake stopped his words halfway, “But you already know that, don’t you?” The girl looked down from his staring eyes, “Yeah, I know. But I thought it only applied to me…” The girl paused as another thought rushed by her. If…

462 Drake’s Burden Honour stared at the prince in shock. Between the nightmare, she’d just witnessed and the question the man was asking, she couldn’t form the right words. For a while, she’d wrestled with finding ways to tell him about herself but something kept her from doing so. For a time, she thought she could get the prince to help her out. Since the goddess couldn’t help her friends directly, then perhaps telling the prince would do the trick. Drake was the one person her powers…

461 Moon and Wolf With Lina feeling better and having visited her brother in his emergency room, Honour felt no need to leave her place beside the prince. In fact, now that she was here, she felt even more glued to the chair beside the prince’s bed. Honour was left in the hospital seated beside the prince, just as she had been found. The goddess didn’t notice when her friends turned back to ask her whether she wanted to get food. The unconscious prince arrested her attention once again.…

460 Harrowing Future Honour stared at the man lying in the hospital bed, her mind wandering through the memories they shared. It was impossible to think the royals were right about his changing behaviour. It almost made her question who was telling the truth. Perhaps the prince was pretending when he was with her. If that was the case, then he would have to be really good a fooling the mind link and that seemed highly unlikely. The second option would be that the prince was hiding something from…
