Found you

Next Morning..

"Good morning!" Thana beamed as she walked towards Lydia with the tray of food in her little hands. "Thana??" Lydia called since that was the first thing that came to her mouth, since when was thana free around here to even bring food to her in bed. "Good morning Auntie, hope you had a peaceful dream?" Thana's smile didn't fade as she placed the tray on the bed close to Lydia.. "you must be starving, Uncle Zak helped me with the dishes have a taste" She handed a bowl to Lydia. "Thank you.." Lydia managed to smile then she accepted the bowl.. "How is it?" Thana's eyes were glued on her face expectantly waiting for a complement. "Delicious.." Lydia smiled then tapped on the space next to her for thana to sit. "Come here.." the smile was still plastered on her face.."Happily thana seated next to Lydia and without waiting for her to speak she took the second bowl and started eating. Lydia studied thana for a while, and a flickle of sadness clouded her eyes but disappeared once thana raised her head to look at her. "Thana darling, can I ask you a question?" Lydia spoke just as thana was about speaking. Thana nodded her head in response.. "Do you like it here? she asked. Her heart was pounding really hard. A part of her wants to hear thana say yes, and another part wants to hear No.. "Hum..." thana looked into space like she was thinking of the best answer to give. "So far it been fun with you, and everything seems strange and different from how it used to be at home.. Auntie" Thana called now looking at Lydia then she continued. "Can we stay hear a little longer when moma comes?" She pouted.. That question left Lydia fazed. Why would Thana want to stay here? Besides...besides her mom is gone.. Lydia sighed sadly but immediately changed her expression. "Why do you want us to stay here?" Because she don't get why thana would want to stay here, she hasn't made any friends, neither has she stepped foot outside this compound, so what must have catch her attention to the extent she's pleading we stay a while. "Everything is just so perfect, the food uhmm.... Delicious.." She licked her tongue when she said that. "Their dressing is Out of this world, just look at my gown Auntie.." She climber down from the bed then spinned for Lydia to have a better view of her dress. It was a cream long gown, with long butterfly hand. flower Patten all over the gown,and at the helm of the gown there are two red dragon prints by both sides. The gown is simple, but "...!" Lydia's eyes widened.. "Who..who gave you that dress?" She asked even when she already knew, she just want to confirm it not true.. "Uncle Axel.." thana beamed as she adored the dress with gown with her eyes.. "No..you must take that off.." Lydia climbed off the bed coming close to thana and thana ran to the door.. "No.." she retort holding tight on the dress like it would disappear the moment she leaves it. "thana.." Lydia sighed.. "Come here.." Lydia stretched her hand to thana forcing a little smile.. "No..I love this dress.." Thana said sadly, her eyes were already watery. "Fine..." Lydia sighed. just the. the door opened. "Uncle Axel.." Than ran to him. "wow, this dress looks beautiful on you.." a little smile formed on his face. "thank you.." She smiled back. "Axel I would like to have a word with you." Lydia said and walked out without waiting for him to even speak. "Go and continue eating." He patted thana's head gently then opened the door to go outside. "Why would you give her a royal dress?" Lydia fired. "How was your night?" He asked gently as though she didn't say anything.. "What?? did you you hear what I said?" Lydia's face reddened in anger. She's being serious here and he's acting all gentle. "I did, but am asking how your night was?" he replied. his expression was the same, but she knows him well.. something happened, else he won't be this persistent on how her night was..

No! It all acting... wasn't he enjoying his night with his lover.. She scoffed.. 'Why do I care?' She scoffed loudly then spoke up. "I don't know what it is you're planning, but stay away from thana, else I'll kill you myself this time.." She snarled. Her voice might not be terrifying but the warning in her hazel brown eyes says otherwise. With that she walked back to her room slamming the door behind her and Immediately thana jerked. "Sorry.." She sighed then opened the door again and left the room. She really needs to cool her head.. Why does she keeps remembering... she's heading to the house gate, she just wants to receive some cool breeze outside this cage called a house. "Princess please-"

"Lydia." She corrected immediately.. "Lady Lydia, please where are you going to?" Inez who happened to be speaking with the guard asked with a respectful bow. "So am I been watched.. haaa...it normal here though, so I shouldn't be surprised.." She chuckled lightly.. "Pri..Lady Lydia a just following orders.." he said with a respectful bow. "Go tell that prince, am not the Lydia from before who would blindly obey his every order, and please ask Zak to help me take good care of Thana." With that she walked away. Inez could do nothing but sigh in frustration..

Lydia walked in the crowdy and noisy market of Versia, the capital of Eston. it is where most royals here in Eaton lives. So everyone here are are either from other states coming to trade, or maids to purchase goods. beggers are also here, even though Versia is the capital of Eston, lots of poor people still live here.. She looked around the market. people buying, beggers begging, children playing happily..she could help but smile at what simple life they have.. She was still looking around when something no someone caught her attention. it was a man, he was putting on a long black cloack, and a pair of tight black trousers. he had a gray mask on and his long hair covered his face making it unable for her to see his face even though he was wearing a mask. His features, and dressing looked familiar, but she's trying to remember where she know him from. She was looking intently at him, praying in her mind he raised his head so she would see him since his head was down. like he was reading her mind, he slowly raised his head, and the first thing his eyes landed on was her. Lydia stopped on her track, her eyes widened in shock. mixed expression clouded her face.. those gray orbs brought back all the memories and in the next second she was running to him..

She hugged him so tight when she got to him.. the man froze and his eyes went wild the moment she crashed into him. Regardless she hugged him even tighter.. "I found you.. you're alive.." She smiled and a drop of tear rolled down her cheeks..
