Pure of Heart

Elyse

Have I ever told you that I hate car rides? We've been in the car for almost 10 hours. We left at midnight so we can be at the palace before noon. We have three SUVs in total. Corbyn, Zey and I in one. Ry, Rylie and Hen in another. Jace and Kay in the last one. Zey and Corbyn took turns driving, right now Corbyn is driving and Zey is napping in the back.

"Please Cor! Just for ten minutes, I need to stretch my legs." I begged, my legs are so stiff.

"Kitten, we only have an hour left." I pouted. I leaned my head against the window. I was about to play on his love for me, but he spoke. "You are lucky. Rylie has to use the bathroom and threatened that if Ry doesn't pull over she will piss in her seat." I started cracking up.

"HaHaHa.... Why didn't I think of that?" He shot me a look that said you wouldn't dare. Oh, but I definitely would. We pulled over at the next rest stop about ten minutes later. I jumped out of the car, just as my best friends did. "Rylie, I could kiss you! I've been begging him for a half an hour to give me a ten-minute break." I looked at her, and she had on her evil smile as the guys came over to us.

"Are you going to go to the bathroom, babe?" My clueless brother asked. We started laughing.

"Ry, my dude, you know your sister better than anyone, with the exception of Els. She played you. The three girls were texting in their private group chat that is No boys allowed." Zey really just threw us under the bus like that. "But if it makes you feel better, I have to pee." He walked to the bathroom while us girls were laughing. We all took the time to stretch and loosen up our bodies. When Zey was back, we loaded back up and drove for a little over an hour before we pulled up to the enormous gates of the palace. After we get through the gate, it's about twenty more minutes until we are at the palace. We had to show our IDs to the guards before they let us through. I started to feel weird when we passed the gate.

'Aurora, do you feel that?'

'Yeah, it's like I feel something good is going to happen, but something horrible at the same time.'

'Well, we need to be on our guard, we have our god-baby and niece or nephew to protect now too.'

'Els, I want a pup really bad.'

'Me too. Soon enough we will.' The car came to a stop and before we got out people were already taking our bags out of the back. When we got out they asked what bag belonged to who so they could take them to our rooms as we wait for our guide. We walked through the huge doors and a beautiful blonde was waiting for us.

"Hello Crimson Moon and Golden Moon. Your request to be on the same floor has been approved. My name is Ceclia but you can call me CeeCee. I will be showng you to your rooms so you can freshen up and change before we go on a brief tour and then to meet the Royal family." She turned around and we followed her up three, yes, three flights of stairs, there are more, but this just happens to be where our rooms are. "I'll be back in 30 minutes. Please be ready by then, we are on a schedule." We all nodded as we went into our rooms.

I stopped in the middle and gasped at how big the room is, it even has a balcony that over-looks a beautiful garden. Our bags were set in a huge walk-in closet. We went and grabbed the clothes we wanted to wear. We hurried to get ready. I picked my navy blue dress that ended at my knees, it was plain but dressy. I put on my black flats to go with it. I threw my hair up in my signature, tight ponytail, put on some eyeliner, lip gloss and earring. Corbyn wore black dress pants and shoes with a light grey button up. He wore the silver bracelet I got him but not the earring. He ran a brush through his hair, and he was done.
