sneaky scent

Lexcy was talking to Estelle, she was telling her about their journey in Dessie. She even told her about meeting a beautiful girl named Valaye.

The two of them were very close as sister and brother. Like they were in harmony. Estelle's residence was in the right wing which was quite far away from the main palace. Everything in her room was luxurious, with the walls painted her favorite color. She liked the pure brown color, combined with the classic white color, making the place cool and comfortable for her, although many of the furniture were not of the same color but all looked comfortable to the eye.

"Do you think it's okay if I become friends with that girl?" her gaze sparkled with excitement that spoke to the beautiful blue eye patterns. Estele smiled at that sentence.

"You are already 13 years old lexcy, you can even have friends nowadays." Estele praised her. Both of them grew up in muertd's affection, despite being without a mother.

"I will return to that village after doing my military school later." He explained more and more. Estele seemed to be busy adding food to the plate of Lexcy who talked incessantly if at all.

"He said he was going to be a doctor, he said I was the first person to support him." She saw the child's happy face as she spoke. 

For a moment, his face looked gloomy, with his mouth full. Estele looked at that with curiosity.

"What's wrong." Lexcy's face changed with the weather. Just as quickly she became sad. 

Their gazes met. Estele seemed to be telling him to tell her what was bothering him. "I was supposed to meet him after that meeting, but Duke, went missing and returned by giving me a red scarf. Fortunately, I was able to see him again at night. And talked to him until the morning." his explanation was quite ambiguous. Estele smiled as she listened. Well, it's just a child's story. So she thought.

****

The meeting with the empire of Zyefar kenya madoga, soon to be held, Rever was waiting on the throne seat, there Felipe was also present, instead of happy because this meeting was an agreement of two very influential pillars. But King Zyefar decided that his grandson should come.

Thinking this was a rejection but in fact Dave agreed, well the current pillar where both of them use the logic of healthy young people. Even though they were 5 years apart, their thinking was almost the same. That made Felipe believe in Revar's decision.

The meeting, which went smoothly, was heard throughout the city, and many leaders even wanted to join the monarchy, although some could not do so under the unifying empire of Cleayer.

In the days that followed, Duke Revar was busy with meetings in various places. It was necessary for him to complete the oath of office before turning 18, where King Felipe would officially enjoy his old age in the eastern senatorial city of Bhena.

The routine he went through before going to Vasse, went to school for 3 years, then to Rocha, the military capital for 3 years. Well that's what he had to go through before occupying an official royal seat.

A time-consuming journey, as the one he was using was the best at the moment, but it was still slow. It was a tiring journey. He would spend some time in the warm water before returning to the runitinas tomorrow.

"Duke, I'm laying out your schedule for the week ahead." Ortiz explained slowly. When they were already in the senataria. After saying that he had to go back immediately to let how the young successor was enjoying his time at the moment.

Her eyes, which did not give any reaction, nodded in agreement. He walked into the mansion, with his long strides he arrived quickly, not even realizing that he had passed the right wing palace. Without caring who would enter her, she was so tired. Taking off his clothes and placing them scattered on the floor, he did that whenever he was tired. Now without a single piece of cloth clinging to him, he entered the bathroom. The light in the room was always dim. She didn't like the dazzling light. Only the lamp was lit, ah that was with the help of the maid Ella. Who has been working since she was 17 years old in the kingdom.

Ah he remembered the girl he met in Dessie. Even though it had been almost 3 months but the incident always haunted him. Leaving no trace of emptiness in his mind. She's great. Revar praised in silence.

He remembered ....

When they returned from the city in Dessie, they planned to hunt, after returning home, but he again spurred his horse as soon as possible. Somehow he thought of the upper reaches of the river. What brought him back then again. Entahlan.

When he arrived, there was nothing there, he felt disappointed, but his face looked the same. Finally he decided to take a leisurely walk on horseback. In the distance, near the church he faintly saw a group of deer cubs from behind a tree. 

He released an arrow, hitting the deer in the leg. 

Revar had succeeded. He quickly dismounted, his eyes focused on the fruit the deer had been eating. It was definitely not the fruit around here. Walking slowly, he approached his immobilized quarry.

Valeye appeared behind a tree, his face looked like he was about to cry, in fear. Her finger looked bloody, ah Revar remembered when his arrow shot the girl's hand that he saw picking up the fruit that fell near the deer's foot. That scared him. 

Apparently it was a deep scratch. 

"Sorry, but they're my friends." The trembling voice sounded like a beautiful classical melody.

Revar just stayed silent with his indifferent face, thinking 'since when did humans become friends with animals' was a strange thing. Valeye tried to stare at him, from the downcast face, what could be seen was Revar aiming an arrow at him then releasing it into the trees.

Thinking his life would be over, the little snake on top of the tree fell near the deer cub. His pale and frightened face made him fall propped up. staring at what had just fallen from above. "He just saved me from this. She said after looking. Well for a moment he was in danger. She thought, but it was just a small snake, but is it venomous? I don't know.

Once again, he aimed his arrow at the valeye, but the girl looked around her. With an anxious face she tried to stand up. But her legs could not withstand the trembling there.

"Give it to me." Rever said. His face was cold and expressionless. 

Valeye stared in confusion. Did he ask for this deer cub. She thought a little hesitantly.

"Let me treat him first." his voice replied softly, but the trembling still did not disappear. He stepped closer, forcibly taking the red scarf that he marked as his own.

"This is mine." He said with a sharp, indifferent look in his eyes.

Valaye was trembling slightly, she herself didn't know what to do, her gut feeling told her that she was related to the boy. She couldn't help herself. The warm red scarf was indeed not hers, she also planned to return it to lexcy.

"Give me something in return, your friend I let go." His hands up, he stood in front of valeye who was still sitting on the ground with the deer. Valeye racked his brains, what did he think he would give in return. Rever said as if all the animals in this forest belonged to him.

Valeye gave him an annoyed look. Her eyes were filled with malice. 

Rever realized his eyes were on the clothespin in her hair. She picked it up and gave it to him immediately, her gaze satisfied.

The pale white hands, the bluish veins visible beneath the skin with fresh scar lines spoiled his eyes. Once again the girl gave him a displeased look, their gazes meeting, Revar looked at her from the reflection of his pure hazel eyes. The color of his eyes was almost the same as the luster of his orange-brown hair.

His feelings arose suddenly, he wanted to sink the girl to the bottom of the river then, pull her along with the sun that would shine. Well it was perfect, a beautiful painting with amazing sculptural wounds. Once again he was imagined.

He was riding away on a horse, while the girl was holding a deer that was out of breath.

It kept making her think of it and consider it a sweet memory.

He smiled, obviously, at how long he had imagined it, until the warm water was cold now.

During the trip, this was the first time he remembered something repetitive, her brown hair and hezel eyes, after watering would reveal her clear figure. She liked that. That feeling of fear gadiss, so natural. Her lips tugged up, she smiled dreamily with a nonchalant face.

Like a child who found an interesting toy, but he realized, it was not his even though he found it, it was in someone else's yard, he had to stop this, but he tried, diverting all about the lake and the painting, but he realized, his efforts would make him sink further into memories, he busied himself, this was not right, well he had to leave. That will save her future. Don't let her go too far. That's hard.
