For the hundredth (or so) time in her life, Aramine sat at the dinner table in silence, alone ,
Spinning the spaghetti around dejectedly on her fork and occasionally stabbing a meatball.
She was surprised when the chef cleared his throat and brought out a little cupcake to the table which had a candle on top, she gave him a confused look .

"Majesty, master Kane informed us it was your 20th birthday today so we all thought , it would be nice to bring you a little cake since it's a special birthday." He bowed before leaving the room,
She blew out the candle and took her cake ,
Birthdays were not to be celebrated, there was no time for that,
Not when she could go and visit some rogues in her dungeon.

She took the little China plate and walked to her side of the castle,before she could make it she slammed into someone, splattering her cake all over Logan and his t-shirt.

" watch it, careful where your going" she hissed at him as she walked off leaving her splattered cake and it's candle , on Logan,

She called out, "maid!" And in seconds one came rushing to her side,
"I'm sorry ma'am was the birthday cake not to your liking?"

"I assume it was lovely but sadly ....." and she points to Logan who is standing with it all over him with an impatient look, not saying a word .
"Oh I'm sure chef can send you another one" the maid says desperately,
"No" Aramine growls
"Please majesty , let us make up for you having a lonely birthday ."
The maid pleaded with her s little bit too desperately,

"What's in them?" Growled Logan,

The maid began to shake
What if the chef was a spy for Loreté or worse, the rogues, or even worse, the hunters,
What if he poisoned the food ?

Without another word she flung the made aside and slammed open Matthews room to see him choking and convulsing on the floor,

Without another minute to waste Logan trudged to him,
"Call a hospital !" He howled out aggressively with cake still smothered all over him.

She ignored him and closed her eyes until they went red, she opened them again and slid across the floor to the brothers smoothly,
She placed her hands on his stomach and tiny white lightening bolts of energy flickered over his body,
she called to the moon goddess who pressed life into him from her hands.
Matthew gasped and sat up,
"the spaghetti.."
"We know brother, it's alright," Logan muttered
Matthews attention turned to a kneeling Aramine who was shaking all over as she tried to control her powers.

"What happened to her?" Matthew asks Logan,
"She healed you, the rumours are true, she has powers."

She cries out in pain, biting her lip to keep it in as she tried to stop the poison in her as well.
She breathed out normally again and turns to the confused brothers,

"We are all fine, this chef wasn't a threat, he wouldn't have poisoned me if he knew I had powers unless he was trying to confirm I had them , my guess? He didn't like the way I'm ruling and wants rid of me, on my birthday too!"

They stay silent for a minute to process this "happy birthday to you, happy birt....." Matthew begins to sing and she growls at him,

"I just saved your life boy but I already have a pounding headache so , leave me be, I'll take care off the staff and I need to call my friend and tell him the chef he sent hasn't exactly got it together,"

She laughed at her future joke and left the room with a slight smile on her face, however these boys knew her 'secret'.
