The Prince and The Parvenu (Completed)

chapter 24

"Todo el mundo escapar de aquí" (everyone get away from here)

Sudie said in a cold stern voice, nobody moved or tried to say anything at all. It was like they still couldn't understand and believe what had happened. Sudie, dressed in fine leathers with white linen that fitted her body well turned flushed, her entire face scarlet red as she held both hands on her waist and shouted,

"Dispersión! Ahora!" (Scatter away! Now!)

Her voice echoed through the entire field, making everyone cover their ears and quickly went on with their own trainings. My chest started booming with an exhilarating nervousness as Sudie marched her way towards me. The second Prince and Rav went in front of me, covering me from Sudie and said,

"It wasn't her fault." they both said in unison.

"Move away Príncipe, Soldado" I heard Sudie say in her low and slow voice. She said the words with enough emphasis that it made the two men move out of her way. She looked at me seriously and I gave her a sheepish smile. She scoffed before saying,

"Follow, Princesa." I nodded like a child, scared of what she might do if I disobey. I've never seen her this serious before and she have always reminded me to stop using my abilities.

The second Prince wanted to say something but I just shook my head and followed Sudie inside the castle walls. The handmaidens swerved away after seeing Sudie's face. She's damn scary. We turned left and walked inside a huge bronze double doors. Inside was a library worth of over a million hard bound books. Oil lanterns illuminated the entire place and polished wooden tables and chairs lined at one corner.

"I didn't know this place existed." I whispered in awe, taking everything in. 

My eyes roamed around the entire library and I couldn't help but gasp. It's breathtaking. Tall chestnut coloured bookshelves that lined the walls and extended high up above screamed of elegance and radiates an earthly smell. Four sofa sets are placed at each corner, made of bronze and silk. The place is deserted.

Sudie glanced at me before continuing to walk towards one of the sofa and sat there, her eyes closed and her breathing ragged. "That's because you are always out and training on the field Princesa" She said. I told myself that it was better not to answer her remark and just keep my thoughts to myself. It would be much safer for me to shut my mouth since Sudie is in a bad mood.

"Princesa Quallie told me about your vision." I felt my heartbeat quicken as she looked at me straight in the eyes.

"Which vision?" Wrong. 

That's so wrong Herm! I should've said something else rather than giving her a clue that I've had a lot of visions! But it's Sudie, Mama's personal handmaiden, maybe she could help. Ugh it doesn't matter now that she's examining my reaction.

"So it wasn't the only vision. What else did you see?" She asked and tilted her head on one side. I looked away, not knowing what to say. Should I tell her?

"You're not going to tell me?" Her voice seemed calm but I knew better. She's loosing her patience. Sheesh this woman has no chill.
