Amaya came back with her stuff, rhys and Cassian are talking about something.
"You are here" cassian notices her presence.
"Where did you get that sword" rhys asks her looking at the sword sheathed to her.
"It's mine" amaya says.
Rhysand lifts a eyebrow at her and looks at Cassian.
Cassian takes a look at her sword gasping he says
"Hey that's my sword it went missing where did you find it"
"I picked it up from ground. Finder's keepers it belongs to me now. I won't give it back. It's precious to me" Amaya hugs the sword to her chest.
"That's not fair" Cassian mumbles.
"You shouldn't have lost it then" she shrugs
"Let's go" rhys says
"How" she asks
"We are winnowing" rhys says
"Huh.. what's that" Amaya says
Rhys holds her hand grinning and suddenly amaya's surrounding turn dark for few seconds then the light comes back.
Amaya looks around to find herself in a new place.
Amaya is too stunned to say anything she stares at the palace in front of her.
"You will be living here for a while. It's called the moonstone palace" rhys says
The palace left her dumbstruck.
The MoonstonePalace is made entirely of moonstone and is perched above a gray-stoned mountain. Its halls are open to the elements, with no windows to be found, just towering pillars and gossamer curtains, swaying in a jasmine-scented breeze.
"I have things to attend i will take my leave. Cassian will show you around"
Amaya watches him disappear.
"Can you also disappear" she asks Cassian.
"You mean winnow no i can't only a few people can do that"
"I have never seen someone vanishing in thin air before"
"Again it's winnowing, it's like traveling through places in few seconds"
"Come on i will show you around"
Cassian shows her around the palace.
"Do you guys live here"
"It's Rhys's residence he stays here when he is in the city although we do gather here for some occasions "
"This is your room.It's late you should rest. I will be back tomorrow"
Cassian leaves the palace. Amaya enters her room.
Its windows are open to the elements beyond, no glass or shutters, and sheer amethyst curtains flutter in the unnatural, soft breeze. There is a large bed with creamy white-and-ivory bedding and pillows, blankets.
An armoire and dressing table occupy one wall, framed by glass-less windows. Across the room, a chamber with a porcelain sink and toilet lay behind an arched wooden door. The bathtub hanging right off the mountain itself.
This is the most beautiful bedroom she has ever seen. She laid on the soft sheets soon drifting to her slumber.
Cassian fills azriel with details of yesterday on their way to moonstone palace.
"She cut his wings! No one has ever done that before"
"Yes cass i heard you just fine the previous 13 times" azriel says.
They enter the palace going towards the dining room.
Azriel saw a figure sitting on the chair. He walked closer scrutinizing the woman sat on chair. His gasps echo the room.
"It's her" he rasps.
"What" cassian asks.
Amaya who was busy gulping down the mouth watering food looks up at the sudden noise, her mouth half open she takes in cassian and another man staring at her. The stranger looks at her with his mouth agape.
"You" he points his finger at her.
" yeah she is the one i told you about, the one who cut his win...." Cass get cuts off by azriel.
"Kingslayer"
"What are you saying" Cass frowns.
"It's her. She is the one who killed the king" azriel hurriedly says.
Cassian's eyes widens as he stares at her.
"Fuck" he says
He looks at her long silver hair recognition runs through him. He recalls the person fighting the king on the battlefield, had silver hair.
"How did i not recognize you" he says.
"You might have not but i can't forget the person who threw the king's eyes at my feet" azriel says
Amaya listens their conversation while she continues eating. It was the most delicious meal she ever had,she couldn't stop herself from grabbing more.
After finishing her meal she looks at the two men still gawking at her.
"Thank you for the meal it was scrumptious" she says to Cassian smiling.
"Who are you" azriel asks her.
"I am amaya" she says
"You killed the king" azriel says
"I did"
"Why"
"He deserved it"
"We looked for you,for the person who ended the king but there was no trace of you"
"I needed a vacation after all that,so i was busy traveling" she shrugs
"I can't believe who we searched for everywhere themselves came to us" cassian says
"Perhaps you prayed too sincerely that God decided to fulfill your wish" she winks at cassian.
Cassian was amazed by this woman,he couldn't believe she was real,he found himself getting lost in her.
"How long am i supposed to live here" she asks.
"You can stay here till the situation has calmed down and we are sure that no more incidents would happen" cassian replies
"And what am i suppose to do here"
"You are free to do whatever you want just don't go to illyria right now.''
For the next days Amaya lived in that beautiful castle,she visited the markets,she learnt she liked shopping,she bought herself beautiful gowns,dresses,she had a knack for fashion, she specially liked night court's fashion and the food it was the best,amaya loved the food here.
Her life was limited to specific perimeter before, caged in the four walls but not anymore she would live to her fullest. She loved discovering things she likes or dislikes and learning about new things. For the first time in her life Amaya was happy. She found herself smiling more and more each day.
Cassian would visit her occasionally,she found herself enjoying his company.
He would join her on her adventures,they would wander around together he would crack some silly jokes making her laugh.
