Chapter 17

A loud shout woke Aella up. She felt something heavy on her abdomen. Aella opened her eyes when she heard a groaned. She is on Kai's bed and Kai's arm are hugging her and the bastard just continued sleeping.

"Kai." She tried to wake him up. Aella tapped his arm and removed it on her body. She sit on the bed but Kai is still holding her waist.

"Don't mind her. Let's sleep more." He said to her while his eyes are still closed.

Aella is sure that she heard Febbie's voice. Shouting their names.

"Aella! Kai!" Then the closed door opened and a gasping Febbie showed when she saw them. "I hope I'm not interrupting something." Febbie said.

"Oh, you are!" Kai growled and she slap his shoulder.

With widened eyes and a heart that pumping so loud, Aella stood up to talk with Febbie. "Why are you here? I thought you will be back after ten days." She tried to change the topic on Febbie's head.

"That is the thing that I want to tell to you. Why I'm here and it's a bad news." Febbie answered and hand her a newsprint. What's with the gossip? She hope that the people of Aerthys are not on rally.

News of the day

The Traitor Knight

By: Unknown

The knights released the new faces of the criminals that were involved on the large syndicate that cause the burning of houses and robberies. The faces of these criminals are scattered all around the city of Aerthys and on other nation. Also, the knight release a new word that one of the Knight are now committing treason and now part of the syndicate. The knight's name is Aella Callista Flair........

Aella blinked for many times after she read the news print. Treason?

"Treason? Who said I'm committing treason?!!" She shouted after she realized everything. All of her senses woke up.

Kai opened his eyes and snatched the newsprint from her hands. "Who the fuck made this nonsense?" He said and read the paper.

She will kill who wrote this news print.

"Actually, I think I'm the reason of that." Febbie said and she walked to sit on Kai's bed. "Will you get up first and wear a shirt?" She said and faced Aella.

Kai groaned and get up from the bed to search of his shirt.

"What do you mean by that?" Aella asked to Febbie.

"I accidentally tell Keiran about you. I was carried away. I said that I'm your friend too and you're staying at Kai's house and I didn't realized it at first. I think he misunderstood everthing. He discovered that I was part of Richart's syndicate and he thinks that you're a friend of the criminals now." She explained.

Aella wants to hate Febbie but it already happened. All she need is to think of a way to resolve this problem immediately. But she can't think clearly because Kai is beside her now and trying to hold her waist. She tapped his hand to stop it.

"Then, why are you here? I mean how? Keiran let you?" She asked Febbie again. Knowing Keiran, he will now let a member of the big syndicate escaped.

"He locked me in one of his mansion's rooms. I escaped because he was summoned for a meeting this early on the morning. The attacked of Richart add up." she said.

"I need to use now my magic dandelions to send them a letter." Aella said and two nodded.

"What exactly you too are doing before I arrived?" Febbie teased Aella and Kai.
