"Niall!"

Our lips part. We turn toward the voice in the ocean. Disappointment wells in my chest. It was a perfect moment. Was. 

"Leandra?"

My face burns with embarrassment. I'm beginning to think its this girl's mission to interrupt us. 

"Niall, you have to help!" She drags herself onto the beach. "Our brothers! They're plotting to kill Father!"

"Which ones? We have 86 siblings."

"The Triplets. Malacky, Seamus, and Ante! I heard them in the sea garden! They're going to try to poison Osheanious and blame Father. Malacky plans to take the throne!"

There's a few moments of silence.

"Do you think it will work?" Niall asks.

"I'd rather not find out! Niall, you have to stop them!"

"Why me? I was exiled!"

She diverts her eyes. "I told a few others- only those that I trusted. They... they didn't care."

"I hate to tell you, Lea, but I don't exactly like Father either. He did try to make me marry someone and exile me."

"You wouldn't  be exiled if you helped save him. You'd be a hero. Please, Niall. Father might not be the best person, but he's a just leader. But if Malacky and Seamus are in control, things will fall to shambles. The people will live in terror of them. Please you know this is true. Your heart is too pure to let this happen. It would tear you apart if you let him die."

I look at Niall as he stares at the sand, thinking. He's obviously torn.

"What do you want me to do?"

She sighs. "I don't know, brother. Anything you can. Just help me. Come with me. Meet me here tomorrow mid day."

He's silent for a moment. "Alright."
