“I need air” Anberine said weakly as she walked away from Merlia and Morgana, grabbing her bag she opened the door and didn’t look back leaving some of them surprised at how she would refuse so quickly.
“She does have morals” Marcus said calmly catching the girls’ attention.
“Her aunt had taught her to never use magic as a way of getting revenge since it would never solve anything”
“But we need her to help make it, she’s the best potion maker we know and we’ll most likely ruin it” Helga said with a weak withered look, frowning Perceval watched them.
“Stop using her to help get ahead, we’re smart aren’t we?” Mordred said as he now stood beside Perceval, Helga and Morgana stared at him in surprise.
“We made it this far so why are we using her to get ahead? Why don’t you study
“I can’t otherwise he will not fall for any of you, the potion requires one person to make it. No involvements or exceptions” Anberine explained with a grumble, blinking Mordred tried to think of a solution.“What if we make the food or drink and slip it in after you’ve made the potion? Surely that would counteract the requirement?” Helga suggested causing Merlia and Morgana to ponder on that question.“Worth a try” Merlia said before looking at her anxious friend with a sheepish smile.“Please Anberine, we really need your help and we wouldn’t ask you to help us with something like this unless if was important. Our people need to be free from the King’s control and I’m sure you want the Light Dwellers to be free from his rule as well right?” Merlia asked, Anberine bit her lip as she stared at them and then the paper.Walki
“Exactly, so don’t give it to anyone else and please Morgana for our sake" Mordred stressed as Morgana sorted out her dress skirt."Don’t mess it up” Mordred warned sternly knowing what Morgana was like, hearing this she frowned at him.After placing the cake in a small protective grey tin, she held it while placing her left hand to her hip.Her pouting grew from his cold words knowing that he meant well but wished he didn't treat her like she was incapable of doing something important.“I know what I’m doing, it’s simple. All I’m doing is giving him the cake and that’s it, why do you need to make it sound like I’m going to mess it up?” Morgana asked bluntly as she shook her head, her dark green tresses moving side to side before they rested on her right shoulder.“Because this is crucial, we can’t mess
“I just realised, the spell won’t work if he is in love with someone else” Anberine scolded herself quietly before pausing as she realised what she had said.A dry chuckle left her lips shortly afterwards at the funny thought of him actually being in love with someone other than himself, or even the fact that he even cared for anyone in particular given how he acted like he had a heart of stone.Hearing her reply Marcus snorted sharply from the amusing thought.“Worst case it just increases his obsession” Marcus said jokingly before shaking his head with mirth in his eyes, placing his arm around her shoulder he gave her a comforting smile.“It’ll be okay, with luck the spell will attract him to Morgana” Marcus assured Anberine who was still uneasy about the whole thing.“IF it works” Anberine said sternly before hearing
“And I want you to get your hands off of her” however Marcus remained close and refused to release Anberine who was on edge from what was taking place.“Why? So you can hurt her?” Marcus challenged coolly, his eyes caught a brief glint in Prince Skye’s eyes before it faded quickly.Catching this Marcus felt an uncomfortable feeling enter his stomach at what could have caused the glint to appear.“I want her” Prince Skye replied in a firm tone, his eyes narrowed at being denied the right to speak to her quietly, while at the same time he wanted nothing more than to keep her away from the male who refused to leave her side.“What could you possibly want with her?” Marcus asked coldly only to pause as he saw Prince Skye show Anberine a withered purple flower that had yellow on the bottom petal that he had in his right jacket pocket.
"What... did I just say?" Skye almost froze but his body and mind kept consuming him with ridiculous thoughts that left him wanting to pull his hair out and scream that it was not true.However to the prince's dismay, he felt no willpower to fight back against these thoughts and was forced t
“Did you upset another Noble again?” Anberine asks her over-anxious friend weakly, she watched as Morgana continued to jump from one foot to another.Seeing this, Anberine's eyes started to grow heavy as a headache started to form.
“I know you’re upset and I really am sorry. You know we would never hurt you on purpose. We were desperate and didn’t want the plan to mess up... clearly we messed up big time” Morgana murmured with a guilty look that had Anberine eyeing her weakly."Desperation truly does bring out the worst in people" Anberine mused wearily, wanting nothing m
“What a scoundrel! Where’s the chivalry? What kind of noble does that and he’s a prince no doubt! No honour what so ever!” Anberine snapped angrily but kept her voice down.At that moment Anberine wanted nothing more than to go after him so she could punch his stupid grinning face.
