The empress is mine

Odessa- unexpected ally.

He was halfway to the door when I said this, petting Devon.

He didn't like it, I could tell but stayed still at least.

"Be here at sun-up. That's when the first meeting is. Lets see how you fare not majio Odessa."

And with that he left.

I wasn't sure what I got myself into but I was sure about one thing.

I hate him.

As I watched the prince leave the room, Devon meowed at me.

"What?" I asked, throwing my hands up in the air, defeated.

"Not a majio?" He responded, sitting on the chair I was just sitting on; Since I had put him down on the chair once I got up to watch the prince leave.

"You are a Majio." He told me jumping of the chair. "You have the lines and the white hair." I watched as he walked to the door, pausing, almost like he was waiting for me.

"What? I need him to trust me. I don't know anything about this place, and who better to ask then the literal crown prince?" I asked.

I know we looked stupid, or maybe I just did, because we're talking in our minds.

I bet I look like I'm having a staring contest with a cat.

Or maybe a stand-off.

Devon scoffed telepathically at me before walking out of the room, leaving me behind.

"Follow me, and don't ask any questions..." he hesitated. "Not majio odessa." He added.

"Hey! That's not funny!" I said jokingly.

I followed him back to my room with him still in front of me.

Once we got inside I went straight to my chair to sit in. These boots were making my feet hurt, and yet... damn I look good.

Also the path from my room to the prince's office is a lot longer than I thought; it took a while for us to get back.

I heard a click, and upon looking to where the sound came, I found Devon closing the door with his two front paws while standing on his hind legs.

"Whoa!" I yelled out loud.

He then turned around sharply, and started lecturing me.

"I thought I told you to speak to me inside your head?!" He exclaimed.

"Sorry, sorry." I apologized "its just... I've never had a pet, much less see any animals ever do tricks." I told him laughing to myself.

"Oh, I apologize." He said walking up to me while I was stand next to my bed.

"For what?" I asked, confused.

"You've never had the pleasure of having a pet! No wonder you were depressed." He told me.

Damn.
