Alvin and the Knights fetch Xabara at the place where her father provided. She didn't knew how but the moment Syzygy walk away from the outside door the Knights appears in her front wearing all cloak.

"Coincidence maybe"

After they raise their hood the knights roam their eyes in the area. Lumapit si Theodore kay Xabara at tinaas ang nakababang hood ng cloak. She smells his manly vanilla scent that she really like. Xabara brush her thoughts when she saw how Theodore look at her before the hood get on the away, looking serious yet lovely.

"I love his brown eyes but Syzygy has the best"

But even having the thought of comparing whose eyes is better she can't ignore how her heart beat went fast. She shrug herself again and look ahead.

"It's safe let's go," she heard Simon said and nod to him.

She raise her hood a little just to see them. Alvin entered the portal first and Theodore motion her to go next. As she went inside the first person she saw is the King whose happily opening his arms to welcome Xabara.

She smiled widely as she run to her father's arm. She then slightly bow as a sign of respect as well to the Queen. Xabara went to her side and hug her as well. The King and Queen look at Xyrene.

"What? We don't see each other in school because we're different," aniya.

Xabara saw a girl at the back of Xyrene and knowing that it's Rachel it made her confuse.

"Rach"

"Hi Xabara"

Xabara look at her Dad with a question all over her face. The King sighed while the Queen looks away.

"Dad, don't tell me she's your daughter with another woman?"

Natawa na lamang ang ama nito maging ang Reyna at ang Knights. She saw at the side of her eyes how Theodore lips rise and chuckles a little while looking at her.

"She's not Princess, Rachel is the Empress of Realm the one who'll fill the Empress in Rose Line. Oh I'm sorry I shouldn't say fill it's her from the start after all"

"Po?"

"Haven't you heard about her Princess?"

"I know about her Dad, a little" pinagdikit pa nito ang kanyang dalawang daliri at binigyan ng ilang espasiyo upang maipakita sa ama ang kunting kaalaman niya tungkol sa Empress.

Natawa na lamang ang ama nito.

"I assume you already have dinner did you eat the foods we prepare for you and is the place okay?" the Queen asked.

Napakamot sa ulo si Xabara at nahihiyang tumango dahil hindi niya man lang nakita ang loob ng bahay.

"It's great po thank you so much"

The Queen smiled to her and motions the King to come with her. Tumango ang Hari ngunit bago ito sumunod ay hinagkan muna nito si Xabara at nagbigay galang sa Empress.

The six of them went to a couch, the three knights Alvin, Simon, and Theodore as well as Rachel and Xyrene.

Xabara notices Rachel's glare to Simon.

"Hey bakit ganyan ka makatingin kay Simon?" tanong nito kay Rachel na nasa tabi lang nito.

Xyrene and Alvin on the other hand is playing cards Xabara eyebrows raise when she saw how close the two are. Theodore meanwhile is sipping in his coffee sometimes she caught him looking at her.
