Alicia's POV
If you think about it, I am a completely free person. Well, not completely but as free as I can get. I am sure it's only been five days since I've been gone. This whole time I've been cleaning the shrine, while looking for a job. I sent out resumes from the paper I borrowed from the library. Hoping to get a call back.

I can easily get a minimum wage job while going to school. Which reminds me, I need to pay for the uniforms. If they are to expensive I may not have the ability to go to school here or if I can't get a job. I may have to walk to a different city.

I haven't eaten in five days, nor do I have a change of clothes. I was exausted from cleaning the now beautiful shrine. I head inside till my other half got the better of me. I turned into my fox and started looking for my pray. I need food. It was essential to my life. I eventually caught a rabbit and a bird. May not be the best thing but if I cook it over fire it wouldn't be that bad. I mean I am part fox.

Her father's POV
It's been five days since I seen my wretched daughter. I am glad to have a son who is reliable. Now that she is out of the equation I can continue with my other plans with Jesse. She would become one of the prince's wife. I am sure of it. I just need a lot a bribery and really good acting.

Jess ' s POV
Five whole day without my annoying pesky sister. She was getting too close to my future husband. I will definitely see to it that she is dead if she is found when I am queen. Ha! She may not live that long! I was laughing to myself but quickly stopped when I heard my name being called.

"Jesse, are you okay?" Asked Keith.

"Yeah, you were laughing to yourself." Roberto mentioned

"Oh, yeah. I guess I was so happy. I've been upset these past five days worrying about my sister. I really do hope she is safe." I say as I put my best sad face I could.

If I luer them in with pity there is no doubt in my mind they would definitely ask me out. From there I can be one of their wives.

I've been hanging out a lot with them after Wilfred had asked me where Alicia was. I told him she ran away because she was too selfish and wanted everything for herself. We could only give her so much. Haha. I would assume he told them and now they want to cheer me up.

Wilfred's POV
There is no way Alicia would have been so selfish. She helped me find a book in the library and helped Alan to find his picture he was so happy afterwards he couldn't stop talking about it.

I have a feeling that the reason why she left is because I saw her turn into some beast. She must have thought I would betray her and have people do operations. I wouldn't want that. Though, anything could happen. Noticing how her older siblings seem to treat her. She was always nice, great, and rather cheerful. But to have her leave was unbearable.

I left them be to their discussion. I don't want to be part of any group Jesse was part in. Even if it means the same group of friends I have to leave.

I was walking to the front gate of the school. It was the end of the day and I needed to go home.

As soon as I got out of the car at the front of the Palace, I was told that my parents the King and Queen of Philip, summoned me to the throne room.

Once I got there they weren't to pleased.

"My son, you will need to quit school that is full of commoners. You will start home schooling tomorrow." Was the only thing my father said before he dismissed me.

Now I won't be able to see Alicia. Even though I had no ability to look for her she was still in my reach while I was going to school. Now being trapped at home, in the palace. That grasp has become a distance. The distance that had only a small, black figure really far away.

she was the only thing that I thought about while wandering the hallways. I was paying much attention when I ran into someone.

"Your Highness, are you alright? You've been staring into space for quite some time now."

It was none other than my butter Claude. He has always been stuck at the castle and Nobel Michael while he trains to be my older brothers personal butler.

My brother, Stephan, at least I don't need to worry about being crown prince. He is next in line for the throne.

I guess I could talk to him about what happened. Our parents seem to enjoy his presence more than mine.

"Claude, do you know where Stephan is?"

"He is in his rooms, your highness."

As soon as he finished talking, I walked towards my brothers room. Which is quite a distance from mine. Maybe my parents didn't want me to spend time with him.
