TOGETHER WE WILL CONQUER THE WORLD (WMMAP)

Chapter Nine: Delicate Daughter

LATER...

Huh? Who's this?

Someone beautiful is singing. Athy?

I have no idea but ... is she a fairy?

Maybe a goddess?

She's so pretty .... .

"It looks like they're having a good dream." Felix said.

"He did sing a song that chases away bad dreams." Claude stated.

"Yes. The fairies must have heard the prince's song and Gifted him and the princesses with sweet dreams."

"You're full of nonsense these days."

"Hehe."

Claude glanced at Arthur who was suddenly opened his eyes. Claude froze but he saw how sleepy his eyes were so he must've been his unconscious, he then crawled to Claude's lap and snuggled close to him.

"Papa... ." He mumbled. Claude slowly placed his hand on Arthur's head and glanced at his two daughters who were sound asleep. Athanasia had her arms around Angelina and held her close.

"So troublesome. Sleep."

The triplets all smiled dreamily.

Weeks passed and it was their birthday. Although it's supposed to be a day of happiness and celebration. It wasn't for Angelina. After all, the original Angelina-

Died after her 6th birthday from an assassination.

She was anxious the whole day of her birthday. Lily made them a cake and brought gifts for them. Athanasia wished for Hannah and Ces to come back. Arthur wished for a self defense class whilst she couldn't wish for anything since she was so scared but asked for a tiara as her 'wish'.

From what they heard Claude stayed in his room the whole day of their birthday and they knew he was grieving for Diana's death anniversary. Arthur had said that it was the most humane thing he's ever done for a Tyrant. Felix had came with gifts for them. Athanasia got a beautiful accessory box. Arthur got a dagger with jewels on. Angela in got a necklace with butterfly shapes.

That night the three siblings slept separately in their room. Athanasia and Arthur had such a good time that they forgot about Angelina's fate.

Angelina couldn't sleep. Her eyes were wide open and her senses were on. She had her pervenche (it's a beautiful shade of light blue) rabbit plushie, held tightly to her and her eyes roaming the whole room. It didn't show what day the assassin would come for her so she was very anxious.

BANG

Angelina flinched and gasped, she immediately got up form her bed and ran to the door. She opened the door and ran. There were no guards which her panic even more and ran as fans at as a 7 year old could go. Felix was no where around and so is Lily. Her mind set off and thought of one person who has a superior power in the whole empire.

Claude.

Surely he won't let me die right? After we 'bonded' sorta he wouldn't let anyone kill me ... right?

She ran and ran until she reached Claude's corridor hallways. Her heart beating faster and faster until that was all she heard. The beating of her heart was like loud drums and it was in her ears. She didn't notice she was crying at all and didn't bother wiping her face. Once she reached Claude's room, she knocked quietly and quickly. After a few fast knocks the doors opened.
