[ Chapter 18 ]

Y/n's pov.  

" Now, remember to change the dressing after bathing, okay? " I wrap Jamie's wound on her shin and she nods while wiping her tears.

" Do the juju-healing " she said, I snicker.

" You know I can't, my mom wouldn't be so happy " I said.

" But you did it to the baby yesterday " she said.

" That was yesterday and yesterday was a horrible day " I said, she pouts.

" Okay, come on " I pick her up from the ground and have her on my hip.

" How many times have I told you not to climb a tree, even if it's for an apple, why didn't you ask Lupin to help? " I asked.

" He hates me " she said and we walk down this path.

" He's your brother, why would he hate you? " I asked and take a dead leaf off her brunette hair.

" Because he always tell mom I steal the candies " she said, I chuckle and we enter the village.

" Then maybe don't steal them " I said, she whines and tug on my hair but it doesn't hurt.

I approach a house and go around to the back where I see a man standing by a tree stump and an axe in his hand, he has jet black hair and dark rosy eyes. With the axe he strikes down on a piece of wood as it split into half the wood pieces just land on the ground with piles of chopped wood.

" I believe the devil escaped your grasped again, Lupin " I said, he looks up and scoff.

" Jamie, what'd you do? " He asked as he has the axe stuck to the stump.

He approached and wipe the sweat off his temples.

" I wanted apples " she cross her arms and turn away as I adjust her bandaged shin.

" Fell off while climbing but she's fine, just a scrape " I said and pass her to him.

She was about to go over him but then hug me.

" Ew! " She shrieks.

" Hey " Lupin said.

" No!, Your smelly " she pinches her nose and I laugh as he rolls his eyes.

" Mom's looking everywhere for you so come here " he takes her and throw her over his shoulder.

" Ah!, Put me down! " She laughs and he holds her while she swings her arms.

" Thanks, Y/n " he said, I nodded.

" Your welcome " I said and walk away.

I move my hair off my shoulder and head down the path of this village.

" She's too proud of herself " I stop in my tracks to the sudden whisper I'm hearing.

" Just because she went to the palace and got praised by the queen, doesn't mean she's the best " I hear another woman said.

" Y/n could've just healed all those people and save the trouble, the baby's mom would've been alive and he wouldn't have taken by that Sagittarius leader, so much for a Pisces heir " the previous woman said.

" Poor baby, he's gonna suffer because of her " I turn around and see the two woman hanging up their laundry.

" Take my daughter's name out of your mouths! " I look to my right and see mom approaching.

They both turn and see me standing here as mom grab my hand.

" Insult her again and we'll see who's going to suffer " she said.
