A court of sass and brattiness

Chapter 5- Revenge prank

Leila's pov

" Hey are you ok, you keep fidgeting with your necklace." I ask arabella.

Arabella and i are now walking back to our room after a very long and tiring tour. Her long dark brown hair swishing with every step.How that girl has perfect hair, i don't know. I easily keep up with her , with quick striding steps as my shoes slide on the floor.

" It's an amulet. And yeah its been bothering me." She replys.

" Oh how is it bothering you."

" i was in the sparring ring a while ago and suddenly i get this flashback and my amulet starts glowing." she says." the flashback showed me as a baby or atleast i think it was me , in a illyrian womans arms, telling me she loves me. and aunt mor was also there."

" so thats why you kept looking at mor the whole time."
" Maybe lets try to get some information on your amulet since its troubling you, we can go to the library rhysand build here " I tell her grinning

" Lets go then."
She says grining back, her eyes glittering. Since she lost her family mor sujjested she move to camp, but she is only half illyrian so rhys made an exeption just for her. she has already been through so much she doesnt deserve more stress. This girl is just so amazing once you get to know her, she's my pookie.

My sunset orange dress floats around my ankles as arabella speedwalks towards the library. i follow her as i ask "What exactly do you want to research?"

" i don't know. About amulet or whatever . If there is something that looks like the amulet...here we are.

We step into the library and i find a worker, a slightly timid-looking illyrian male. i purr requests at him making him turn beet red as arabella rolls her eyes behind his back. With a pat on his wiry back, i drift off into the stacks . We find a couple of books, and holy shit they're old. Dusty as fuck and smelling like they were written when my gret. grandma was a baby and trust me thats a really long time ago.

I resist the urge to wash myself thoroughly in a shower as i get a thick wad of dust stuck on the front of my dress. Arabella just grins when she notices my disgusted expression. the spring court doesn't have any dust.Mostly.

then we get started on the first huge book ... one saying protective amulets.

Urgh. this will take quite a while. its thicker than my arm. But i don't really care, if it means helping my friend.

Nash pov

Nyx smirks, feline as he leans back on his bed. He's stolen half my cushions, like the spoiled brat he is.

"she's going to be so pissed when she finds out." he drawls with a smug air about him.

we have decided to steal arabella's necklace thingy as a comeback prank, becuase its just a piece of jewellery, no ones gonna miss it.

It's then when cassian comes in. his wings folding in tight as he pushes through the doorway.

"hey, boys."

He turns to nyx, who's already rolling his eyes like he knows exactly what's coming.

" so, apparently my nephew here sparrred with arabella... when he didn't even have training...and could have gotten his ass broken."

Cassian sigh, though he's smirking a little. Poor nyx. it's funny to see people getting reprimanded. when it's not me...

" so, nephew, you get some library work. I heard hauling books is good for the muscles."

he grins, claps a groaning nyx on the shoulder, and leaves with a heavy chomping of his boots.

"well, nyxy boy, let's get to the library."

He growls at the nickname, but gets off the bed with a resigned sigh. I suppress a smirk. Nyx hates libraries, and hauling books will probably piss him off becuase Nyx hates the smell of books.

We walk to the library, and Nyx gets us lost in several passages(he says its me,But i don't think so.) Luckily, we find our way to the library.

a illyrian male glances at us, arching an eyebrow.

"book carrying work." Nyx says in a bored voice.

The male just nods, giving me a weird look. Oh right, i'm a non-illyrian. i just stare at him too and he drops his gaze.

Ha. Coward. I geuss my mom Amren's steely glare rubbed off on me somehow. really good use in staring contests.

We walk deeper into the library, in the vague direction the guy waved us to, and come across two females who are hunched over a desk and poring through books.

The first is arabella, whom i immediately recognize by her blindingly white hot wings. The other one... Well, Holy shiit the girls hot af.

The other female is about as tall as arabella, maybe a little shorter. Her hair is long and golden like pure sunlight, and looks so damn silky that i bet it would feel good if i ran through my hands through it. She has absolutaly sinful curves. and that scent of jazmine and fresh grass... shit.
There are enough hot females that i've met, but goddamn, thhis one..wow just wow.

Nyx is giving me a knowing glare and i roll my eyes at him. hey, i gotta admit the view.

"well hi." he drawls while he bares his his teeth at arabella.

She only turns, glares, and then grins like a cheshire cat. her white wings catch a ray of sunlight through the window and glimmer. oof. Guess coming here wasn't so bad.

"poor daddy's boy needs to do some house chores?"

The other female, whom i was ogling, huffs a breathy laugh.

"leila, this is nyx, our precious daddy's boy, and that is his faithful servent nash."

"daddy's boy? oh ok, we going there again."

Leila smothers another giggle and looks at me, raking her eyes over me. I take that as a que.

"leila. A gorgeous name for a gorgeous female." i purr, meeting her eyes.

Leila blushes and looks down at the floor in embarrasment, which only makes her look even more-

nyx grins, walks past arabella,and gives her a shoulder pat, while i smile at leila again, making her blue eyes glimmer.

Arabella growls not noticing the necklace that nyx slips off her neck. and shoves it in his pocket.

Sneaky freaking devil.
