The two males walked in silence while I silently held onto Maddox as he carried me. Something was seriously drilling holes into me. It wasn't the silence but the stares I could feel from Maddox and Louna, especially Louna.

We stopped in front of Henry's office, four guards standing in front of the door. They let us pass and Maddox put me down once we were in front of Henry, who sat at his desk.

"Lee..." Henry sighed, either in relief or distress.
It was one of the two.
I looked at the ground feeling guilty for not being able to keep the secret but it wasn't entirely my fault.

"Sorry." I said softly before I got spun around. I looked up in surprise and watched as Maddox looked me over. "She really does look like Beatrice." He hummed bringing a hand to his chin. "But your aura is completely different."

"I applaud you Henry, You covered her aura incredibly well." Lounas tone was cold and venomous. I shrunk back and stepped away from the terrifying male.

I sighed and crossed my arms, glaring back at the black haired male. He didn't exactly falter under my gaze but he did look away with a soft grunt.

Henry sighed and massaged his temple. "I'm sorry that I lied but you were already on your way. Besides you must know that our King isn't on the best terms with your fathers." Maddox nodded silently while Louna glared. "I don't like to be made a fool of." Louna snarled making me pout. "That wasn't my intention." Henry bowed apologetically.

Maddox sighed and looked at Henry with a soft smile. " Tis' alright, we get that you were trying to please us. Right Louna?" Maddox bumped his friend with his elbow. Louna didn't reply which made Maddox continue, "We should have checked if the rumors were true or false before running over."

The white haired male turned to me and grinned. "Don't be so stiff. We ay'nt gonna harm ya." Maddox roughly slapped my back making me think he was probably still mad. "Haha...sure." I rubbed my stinging back before I looked to Henry.

"I'm afraid that they might have come to kill you princes." Henry muttered making me think back to the events that happened only moments ago. I shivered and groaned rubbing the goosebumps on my arms.

"They really are idiots." Louna muttered as Maddox nodded. "They should realize whose stronger." I nervously looked to my injured arm and wondered if I should tell them what happened with the green haired male.

"Uh I had a run in with some guy with green hair. He also had a strong green aura, although not as strong as your auras." I held my injured arm close to my body, slightly hoping they didn't realize that I hurt myself.

I don't want to be even more troublesome to deal with

They stared at me as Henry cursed under his breath. "Wait here. I need to find Nate." Henry disappeared and I was stuck in the room with the two princes who continued to stare. "Did you hurt your arm?" I flinched and looked at Louna with a tight smile. "No..." he sighed and grabbed my injured arm making me whimper in pain.

"Your aura really does try protect you." Maddox commented making Louna nod. "It's trying to fend me off." I didn't exactly get what they were on about since I was blinded by pain, with Louna still holding my arm and all.

Let go...
