Rueben was staring out the window when he seen her run across the lawn. I wonder what she could be up to. He quickly ran outside following her at a distance. He reached the barn as she fell over some bails of hay, quickly he hid behind the barn gate. Not wanting her to see him behind her. I thought she was supposed to be with Gloria having brunch. Anger and frustration filled his body. He managed to sneak into the empty stall without her or anyone else seeing him. He sat there and listened.
Isadora and Shayde were rambling on about the horses and how Co-co was his 2nd favorite horse. Not wanting either of them to notice him he kept quiet until he heard them leave the barn. He was so angry. She was supposed to be mine, he thought. Angrily he ran inside, deciding to do a further investigation of things.
He ran upstairs being careful to not be seen. No one could know he was about enter her room. He looked both in front of him and behind him before he entered her room. He found her things were neatly unpacked. She had a tulip in a glass with some water along side a photo. He grabbed the photo and noticed it was one of her and what must have been her father. They were standing next to a black stallion. The stallion had a red ribbon it's forehead. This must mean that he had won some kind of award or something. He placed the photo back exactly as he found it.
He then noticed that Isadora had another tulip laying on the dresser next to her hair pins and hair brush. He glanced back at the one next to the picture. Noooo this can't be.. she is mine! He possessively grabbed both flowers and crumpled them up. He was so furious. How on earth could she possible have 2 flowers. I had found the one by her door two nights ago and disposed of it! She should have only received mine.
His mind began to race, and that is when he realized that he needed to do some further investigating. He quietly left her room, making sure not to be seen. He quickly returned to his room, summoning his servant. “I need for you to saddle my horse immediately.” He changed out of his gown and into more appropriate riding clothes. Before going below to the stables.
“I need for you to keep your trap closed and do not speak of this day to anyone” he sternly added, “if anyone asks you tell them that I am in the library.” His servant nodded, “ yes sir!” and briskly walked away.
I am sure they headed toward the stream. I will just get as close as possible and not be seen. I need to know how well he is doing with her. I have to find her weakness or his. She will be mine. He trotted off in the direction he had seen them leave. When he got closer he got off his horse and tied it to a nearby tree.
It was only a small distance when he seen them. They were laying on a blanket and … she was only wearing his shirt.. He reached up wanting to scream with frustration, he ran his hands through his hair. Clenching his fists he could not seem to look away. They were laying on their sides, dreamily staring into each others eyes and he was kissing her. Pacing back and forth Rueben muttered to himself. This cant be happening. He continued to watch when things began to get even more heated.
Should I interrupt their little rendezvous, but if I do then they will know I followed them. It would upset her I am sure of it. What to do... what to do.. I paced and paced. My anger close to boiling over. Watching as their day unfolded before me. I must make a plan. He knew they would be returning shortly for dinner so he decided to head backand begin his plan of action.. Isadora Goddess of Emotion would be mine! With determination in hand he returned to the castle.
Hey all I know that was a super short chapter but I needed to give you guys some insight on what kind of person Rueben is. I wonder why he is so interested in Isadora.
What do you guys think? I am just a bit curious, did he say he destroyed a flower the other night?
