"Sis Mya,"
Mya felt a tug on her body. Her eyes slowly opened and the first things she saw were two round and big blinking eyes staring at her with pure child innocence.
L seeing Mya wake up, a lovely huge grin formed her face. "You''re awake!"
Mya slowly sat down. "L," she said as she rubbed her still drippy eyes. When everything cleared, she noticed that she wasying on some hay and beside her, there was a goat munching on some hay as well. The goat looked at her for a few seconds then it went back on eating once again.
"Where are we?"
''If I remembered it right, thest thing I knew was Kayden carried all of us to somece. Is this the ce?''
"We are currently here at an abandoned vige." Lorn suddenly entered. He was holding the same rake he used to threaten Mya before. "So there is nothing to worry about because this ce is safe and secure for us." He added in the end.
"Mister Handsome also brought all your friends here," L added with a smile. "Come I''ll show you to them!" She suddenly pulled Mya''s right hand.
''Mister Handsome?'' Kayden''s face shed on Mya''s mind. ''Is she pertaining to him?''
They made it out of the barn. As Mya nced at her surroundings, the whole ce was eerily quiet. Only their rushed footsteps could be heard along with the few rustling of dry leaves. There were also houses built of wood one after another. Up in the skies, the sun was already setting.
"We are here!" They both stopped at a huge house. Mya nced above. There was signage. The letters were already losing their color, making them a bit hard to read. The only thing that was clear was the letter O and R plus the word Inn at the very end.
"An inn?" she said confusingly.
L nodded her head. "Mister Handsome brought them all here."
Mya slowly opened the old dark brown door, it created a loud creaking sound which made her a little surprised. Nheless, she still proceeded.
Inside, there were tables and chairs lined up. As Mya walked in...
"Hmmm..."
She heard someone humming behind the counter. Mya slowly made her way there and as soon as she reached there, she saw a familiar white dress and that long dark hair.
"Hyun Jae?"
Hyun Jae turned around, she was holding a spat with her. When she saw Mya, her eyes widened with delight.
"Mya! You''re finally awake!" Hyun Jae ran towards her and locked Mya in an embrace. She immediately released and looked at Mya with a pout.
"What?" Mya asked.
Hyun Jae just simply sighed. "Are you alright? Is there anything that makes you feel ufortable or hurt your body?"
"Yeah?"
"Why does it sound like you are not sure? Ah yeah, the meal I''m cooking!"
Hyun Jae hurried towards the pot she was cooking.
''She seems alright now. But...'' Mya remembered how Oliver betrayed Hyun Jae.
''I don''t know what his connection with the witch is. But...'' Mya nced at Hyun Jae who was smiling and enjoying as she cooked.
"Hyun Jae!"
"Lady Hyun Jae, we''re back!"
Those voices...
Mya turned around and she gave a faint smile to the two people who just arrived.
"Yow," she waved her right hand awkwardly at the crown prince and Theo.
''Why did Kayden bring them here too?''
"You!!!"
Before the two could react violently, Hyun Jae extended her spat. "Everyone! The food is ready so let''s eat, alright?" Then she turned around and walked back to the pot.
"Ah, one more thing." She looked back at them again. "While you are here, all of you need to follow this. Absolutely. No. Fights." Hyun Jae said, emphasizing every word.
She was really releasing a menacing aura that the three couldn''t help but just nod their heads.
---???---
Mya and the others set the food on the longest table they found in the inn. There was an awkward silence as they waited for Hyun Jae to get the food she cooked in the kitchen.
Mya was sitting in the opposite direction of Theo and the crown prince Aadel. She could literally feel their res at her. While Mya just feinted to look on her left, particrly to the painting of a golden horse and there was a brown dog above it. It strangely reminded Mya of someone.
"Why are you not looking at us?" The Crown Prince Aadel started to speak.
But Mya simply didn''t answer as if she didn''t hear him.
''That painting really seems familiar,'' Mya narrowed her eyes to look even more closer to the painting. Figuring out its details.
This somewhat agitated the crown prince.
"Hey! I know you can hear me. Why are you not talking?" The crown prince scoffed. "Did you finally be dumb? You''re being rude to the future emperor of Hacien!"
''But abination of a gold horse and a brown dog? That''s really some unnatural and unique colors for the animals.''
"Hey, I''m talking to you!" The voice of the prince became irritated.
''Ah wait, there are also some brown dogs there, so the only strange thing is the horse.''
*Crash!*
The table was split in half as the crown prince smashed his hands above it. That''s when Mya turned her gaze and attention to him.
The crown prince was boiling with anger and his face was flushed red. While Theo was still ring at her.
Mya saw the prince''s golden hair and Theo''s brown hair.
"So you finally look...h h h"
Mya ignored the prince and returned her gaze back at the painting of the horse and the dog. ''Ah, so that''s why those animals looked familiar. But it won''t do the animals any justice if Ipare them to these morons.'' Mya heaved a sigh feeling sorry about the painting that she evenpared it to the two.
"You really!" The crown prince finally snapped. Sparks of electricity started to emerge from his hands.
Mya just looked back at him with disinterest.
"Hah are you scared?" The crown prince cackled. "It is toote now, I''ll send you right..."
"What''s happening?" The crown prince froze when he heard Hyun Jae''s cold voice.
A mischievous thought emerged from Mya''s mind. "Hyun Jae.." She called out in a calm manner.
