The Royal Summer(book Eight)

Chapter Twenty Two

In the morning the sun was shining through the window so bright that Mafia and Brook woke up and noticed that they weren't alone, and that someone had been laying on top of Mafia.

Mafia looked down and saw dream who was sleeping and was dreaming Mafia patted him then looked to Brook and saw Con and Star Fire, then he looked down and saw NightMare crushed between them "I want to be loved not crushed" Nightmare squeaked.

Mafia slid to the edge of the bed "your just like your mother when she used to squeak" Mafia said quietly then looked at Brook who was smiling down at Star and Star looked to Nightmare and snickered at him, "what are YOU SNICKERING about your the one who put me here didn't you!" Nightmare said.

"Oh no I wouldn't do that to you not at all it was Con......" Star whispered "it wasn't me damn it" Con said with sleep still in his voice, Brook started to laugh, "Star I'm sorry hunny but it sounds like you did do it" she said in between laughing.

All the kids then looked up to see there mom was laughing Dream then woke up more slowly "I saw her do it Mommy" Dream said, Nightmare glared at Star "I think it's time to get up kids and Star as fun as it was for you to put him there don't do it again" Mafia told her.

Star just stared at Mafia then sighed "oh fine" Star said then all the kids got up and headed down stairs Mafia looked at Brook "I'm not ready to go down there yet Mafi" Brook said, Mafia grabbed Brooks hand "but your father and sister plus everyone else is down there waiting for you" Mafia told her.

"I'll be right by your side anyways and you won't have to see your mom since your dad is pissed with her" Mafia added, Brook just blinked Mafia then leaned in and gave her a kiss on the forehead Brook then nodded slowly.

Mafia then got off the bed and went around to Brook and helped her out of bed they then went over to her dresser and Brook grabbed her new dress Mafia then helped her change into it, as they took off clothes Mafia then got upset.

Brook still had all of the marks and scars on her wrist and back Mafia then turned her around and saw scars on her chest as well "holy shit where did these come from?" Mafia asked, "they were probably whips or something, it's been way too long I can't even remember" Brook said in a small voice.

Mafia just pulled Brook into him then and they stood there for a few minutes then he pulled her back and started putting the dress on, the dress was an aqua colour and had lace on it once it was on Mafia held her back a bit and looked at her.

"Wow I'm loving this dress it's very you Rosie" Mafia told her Brook looked down and grinned "It was love at first sight when I saw this" she replied, Mafia nodded then he turned around and zipped up the zipper then he turned her again.

Mafia then pulled her in close and kissed her the kiss lasted a few minutes then he pulled back Brook blinked "well my dear what do ya say? Shell we head down before the kids come back up?" Mafia asked, Brook thought for a minute then nodded slowly "I guess we should" she replied.

:Meanwhile:

Mystogan and Cassie headed down to the dungeons with some food in hand Cassie was worried that they might try something but then she looked at Mystogan and breathed a sigh of relief, she had forgotten he volunteered to come with her and help.

"Thanks for coming Mystogan I appreciate it" Cassie said Mystogan grinned "it's no biggie I wasn't doing anything anyways so I thought I'd help" he replied, when they hit the bottom of the stairs Cassie froze and blinked Mystogan rubbed her back "it's alright i'm right here" he told her.

Cassie turned around and stared at him "they might try to get out or they might try to hurt me or you, you don't know what they'll do" Cassie told him with a shaky voice, Mystogan patted her back one more time then led the way.

Once they were at the cell doors he decided to be the one to give them their food as she was too scared too for good reason he saw, "these guys look a tad rough" Mystogan thought as he put the third bowl down once everyone was served everyone came to their doors and reached for their bowls.

Mystogan and Cassie watched as they came to their doors and grabbed their bowls as they watched Cassie noticed one of them was staring at her as he was pulling his bowl in closer, Cassie started to shake but Mystogan came closer to her and put his hand on her shoulder.

Mystogan turned Cassie around and pushed her towards the main entrance but as she was about to turn the person grabbed her, "where do you think you're going?" Sebastian demanded "you're going to give me back Brook and you're going to do it now plus you two are going to let me go" Sebastian added.

Mystogan grabbed Cassie and pulled her away from Sebastian, Sebastian finally let go of Cassie "how about NO" Mystogan said then they both left the dungeon Sebastian kept yelling from the dungeon Blue then pop his head out by the dungeon door "SHUT THE F UP YOU A..HOLE" Blue yelled back.

:A few minutes later:

Brook and Mafia came down stairs once they were down everyone looked at them and smiled Mafia then heard Blue yelling, "why is he yelling down there? Is there trouble?" Mafia asked them Cassie nodded as she was still freaked out.

"Sebastian tried to grab me through the cell" Cassie told him Mafia stared at her and Mystogan then to Blue "did you want me to go down there?" Mafia asked them, Cassie shook her head "oh no it's okay now I'll be fine I'm glad Mystogan came with me" Cassie said.

Killer and Daisy looked at them and smiled at each other Cassie noticed and looked away fast. Brook snickered knowingly, Mystogan blushed, Brook then looked and saw her dad was there "hello father" Brook said he smiled "hello Brook how are you my dear?" he asked.

Brook grinned "I'm a little better thanks" Brook replied Mafia pulled her closer to him when he noticed that her legs were shaking "not as fine as you think" Mafia said, Brook sighed "but I am able to walk a bit with help" she said Semion shook his head "oh hunny I hope you'll be okay" he told her.

The queen then stepped up Closer to them with a smile "I'm so glad you're alright dear I was so worried" the queen said Mafia and Brook looked at her then, Brook glared at her "I bet you were for god sake you want to kick us out" Brook said.

The queen frowned "I was still worried about you babe dear god you think I'm that bad of a mother?" she asked Semion shook his head "YES your that bad of a mother" he answered for them, The queen glared at him "DON'T you dare" she told him.

:Meanwhile with Inko:

Inko was back in her broken down hideout, Inko started to pace back and forth then she started thinking about the group and the queen, "how do I get my revenge? How, how, how........." then she had an idea, "I know I'll just trap or trick one of the kids and cage them, see how the parents schwarm " she thought.

Then she paced again "but how do I catch them since I don't know where the castle is right now" Inko thought as she started to get mad at herself, "I should've followed them" she added then she made herself sit down and think.

"I know they have to come into town or the woods sooner or later I could catch one there" Inko decided finally and she smiled slowly, "that poor kid" she thought to herself "now all I have to do is wait" Inko added.
