Chapter 6 Six

Eryndor pov

She really is defenseless. I placed my palm underneath my jaw with my elbow resting on the arms chair. She was just sleeping without any care. Two opposite sex sharing a room was already against the rules and now because of this thread I am being forced to stay here.

What if tomorrow she starts to demand compensation, if she knew my identity would she demand more than necessary,or does she already know and was only pretending not to know who I was.

I glared at her sleeping peacefully as though she hadn't disrespected me just a few minutes ago and didn't even apologize for her behavior, but was she really telling the truth about not knowing who I was?

Mother isn't here and I can't leave either,if she really bought this place then where did mother go to and why would she sell our private property,it was already strange that something happened to me and I looked more mature than before, I was definitely twelve years old when the attack happened , my hair was already longer than I remembered, what changed exactly,it has only been a few hours maybe days, since the house has turned out like this.

My stomach growled and I placed my palm on my stomach , I was hungry and there was nothing to eat,I should have taken the snack she gave me back then,I let my pride made me reject it, and raised my head and looked around before my eyes landed on the half bent table where she kept a bag,the same one she brought upstairs.

I stood up from the couch and walked over to the table,I glanced at her,she was still sleeping peacefully,I shook my head and quietly opened the bag, there were still some snacks left,I didn't recognize it.

My stomach growled again ,I didn't waste time thinking it over and took out one of the snacks, it was round with a little design, I put one inside my mouth and chewed on it, it was nice,I took the remaining one and sat back down on the couch and began to eat the remaining snacks.

Before I knew it I had already finished everything , I looked at the empty bag and went back to the bed. What if she woke up tomorrow and accuses me of stealing, she wouldn't dare accuse a prince or would she?

This thread kept me here and I didn't even know what street she was talking about. I leaned back on the couch. I needed to find the person who sold this house to her and that might help me find mother. I needed to know if she was actually safe, and who had attacked us.

I turned my head and looked out of the window. Everything was quiet except for the breathing in the room and the sounds of small animals running around.I looked back at the girl, she had turned to the other side.

The more I observed her,the more I found it strange the more I think she is way different from our people, the flow of her magic was strange, looking back now,the reason I didn't want to argue with her was because of the overwhelming power that surrounds her,it was like a bottomless pit.

She wasn't an elf, werewolf or any other life force I had come across,it was like she wasn't part of this place, her power was overflowing and another thing, her power made me calm, my body has always been the type to reject any other forms of magic that comes in contact with my body, the same with healing through portions, I don't even have any healing powers.

Mother made sure that I wouldn't injure myself, because of my irregular bleeding that wouldn't stop and having no healing power made it impossible for me to recover from even a slight cut.

Mother had said that having no healing powers meant that I was destined for something far greater than what our ancestors might have accomplished but still I had to live everyday being extra careful and making sure that not even a single pin was around me.

I couldn't even practice swords because of it, though I was learning in a non combat way, I was already stronger in using other magic than most of my peers.

I tapped my fingers on the arms chair with my head resting backwards on the couch. Still, what am I going to do about this thread? Mother might know what it is and how to fix it. I can't spend my life stuck together with some strange girl, and have her following me around, wait…. I might actually be the one following her around like a lost puppy.

I shook my head in horror as I imagined what might happen if we don't fix this. She already tried to drag me across the floor and down the stairs, her strength wasn't a joke.

I closed my eyes as the exhaustion washed all over me,all this thinking was giving me a headache and there wasn't a single suitable place for me to rest my head , I soon drifted off to sleep with my arms crossed around my chest.

I dreamt about my mother and saw her far away from where I could reach her. No matter how hard I called out,she didn't turn around,nor did she even stop once.

“Hey” a voice called out , lightly touching my shoulder,the scene disappeared as I opened my eyes and blink sleepy at the girl, what was her name again?

“It is already morning,you said you wanted to see who I bought this place from, we are leaving right now" Vaelunie said looking energetic, I was still feeling sleepy, no one has ever woken up even if I slept until afternoon, I rubbed my palm over my face and then stood up from the couch.

I nodded and was about to leave when her voice stopped me "did you come here dressed this way?” Vaelunie asked,she looked confused,I nodded in response, I noticed that her style of dressing was different from the way females dressed,did their style change overnight?

" You are joking right?” She asked again with a soft laugh, I looked down at

the cloth I was wearing, what's wrong with it.
