It stopped raining that night.

Adelia fell asleep on Elmer's shoulder after they talked for few hours.

He did not want to wake her up and so he moved her into a more comfortable sleeping position.

The prince stared at her for a while as he gently touched her hair.

"Take care of yourself Adelia"

He whispered.

Elmer kissed her hand before leaving her behind , peacefully sleeping in that room.

Once he closed the door behind him he saw Elina heading upstairs.

"Hello"

He smiled saying.

She smiled back then whispered,

"Let's talk in the guest's room"

Venator was allowed by the king to enter the dungeon , he ran through those endless cells looking for a trace of hers.

"GET ME OUT OF HERE !"

Her voice was to be heard from miles but she was ignored.

Venator ran towards her cell.

"Luna !"

"OPEN THE DOOR"

He yelled at the guards and they immediately did.

Then he walked in as they locked that cell behind him.

"ARE YOU ALRIGHT ?"

The hunter was freaked out and sounded very scared and worried for her.

He said while checking on her face , hands to see if she was hurt in any way.

"Did they do anything to you ?"

Luna wrapped her arms around him and hugged him tightly.

"I am fine now"

She said.

His hands that were shaking hugged her back as he said,

"I will get you out of here , I promise"

"I know"

Luna said as if she was the one comforting him , which was true.

Asher and Ezra were watching the sunrise getting ready for the new day since General Alex was coming to take care of the rest of the trainees and see who are those who can keep up with his training and those who are not qualified yet.

"Louis !"

Edmund shouted as he ran to hug his older brother who kneeled for him.

"Good morning"

Louis's calm voice said

"I passed all my classes !"

The child cheerfully said

"That is great ! Is there anything you want as a reward ?"

The second prince asked.

"I want to go outside of the palace with you and Elmer and Aylin and Betty and Ezra and Asher and our father too , let's go all of us"

He smiled brightly as he said.

Louis went silent for a while before he smiled back replying,

"Sure ! Let's go all together when Elmer is back"

Which made The little prince feel more at ease and believes that the day will come.

"Where is Elmer ?"
