Forgotten Wife: Let the Traitors Kneel Down

106 Alone After leaving the room Maya went to the tavern to get something to eat since she had been kicked out of the room.

At the tavern she bumped into someone since she wasn't paying attention while walking.

_I'm sorry, I didn't look where I was going.

_It's okay, Miss Maya.

Hearing his name Maya raised her head, it was Ethan, the elf who regularly visited the information guild.

_What a coincidence, I didn't expect to see her in this place.

_I'm traveling with a friend, what are you doing here? With a shadow of sadness on his face Ethan replied.

_I'm still looking for someone important to me.

_I hope you can find her soon, I know you've been looking for her for a long time.

_So? _I accidentally heard it from my brother.

_There was a time when I thought I would never see that person again, but I have seen her recently, now that I know she must be somewhere, I will not rest until I bring her back to our home.

Maya had been interested in April, but she had never really asked about her mother, at that moment she wondered if she was still alive and if so, she wondered why she was hiding from that elf, he seemed to be someone who held affection for that princess because otherwise he would have already given up, and stopped looking for her, she told him.

_Haven't you thought that maybe that person doesn't want to come back, otherwise they would have already done so, don't you think? The expression on Ethan's face hardened, his response cold.

_Our race cannot live among humans.

_ Do you hate humans? _It's not that, I know that there are good people among humans, but I also know how evil they can be, that's why we can't live among humans, I must go, have a good trip.

When Alessandro left the room Cassian looked for Maya in the hallway, but she wasn't there, Cassian approached one of the guards and asked him.

_ Do you know where Maya went? _Miss Maya headed to the tavern, Do you want me to go find you? _No, I'll go get her, you guys prepare everything, we'll leave immediately.

_As Prince Cassian commands.

When Cassian went to the tavern he saw Maya having breakfast quietly at a table, he looked around for Ethan, and when he couldn't find him he approached Maya and said.

_ Why did you leave? _I didn't know I couldn't leave, and I was hungry.

When you left the room you said you were going for breakfast, but when you came back you didn't bring any food, just the king, and even though it's good, I can't eat it, it already has an owner.

_ Didn't you meet anyone when you came here? _If by someone you mean Ethan, yes.

_ Have you talked to him? _And.

_ You haven't told him about April, have you? _Of course not, but we talked about the person he's looking for, although he didn't say who it was, he seems very determined to find her and take her back to his kingdom, he said that those of his race could not live among humans.

Cassian frowned, they had to make sure that this man didn't find out about April's existence, because if he did, he didn't know what he would be capable of.

_There's something that's made me curious, is Abril's mother still alive? _No, she died when April was a baby.

_But that Ethan claimed to have seen her.

_ That was April, she had changed her hair color with magic, that day she had blonde hair and according to April, she looked exactly like her mother, he must have confused her.

_Maybe we should tell him that she is dead, that man has been looking for her for years, he is suffering.

_ And do you think he will believe you? _Maybe not, when you've been looking for someone for so long it's hard to believe the truth when it's hard, I've seen Many people go to the information guild and when they get it they refuse to accept it.

_He has also seen April, he thinks she is the person he has been looking for, even if you tell him she is dead, he will not believe you.

_You don't want him to find out about April's existence, do you? _No, you already said that elves do not allow their race to live with humans, April is my brother's wife and he loves her, he would never allow her to be taken away from him, he would be capable of starting a war.

_Then I'll make sure not to say anything, I'll keep April's existence a secret.

_Thanks Maya.

_Still, you have to be aware that maybe Ethan will find out on his own, he's getting closer and closer.

_I know, but in the castle it will be harder for him to find her.

_Still, don't underestimate him, that elf is desperate to find her and when someone is that desperate, they find what they're looking for.

One of the guards approached them and said.

_Prince Cassian, we are ready to leave.

Cassian stood up, placed a silver coin on the table and said.

_It's time to go.

That day the trip was long, they used several teleportation scrolls, when they arrived at the royal palace it had completely gotten dark, Maya seeing that magnificent castle told him.

_Wow!, this place is amazing.

_I'm glad you like it.

When April got out of the carriage she felt dizzy from using so many scrolls, Alessandro caught her in his arms.

_ Are you OK? _Yes, I'm just a little dizzy from the trip.

Alessandro took her in his arms and said to the butler, ask that a bath be prepared for my wife and a light meal.

_As your majesty commands.

Alessandro carried Abril to the room, he gently placed her on the bed and said to her.

_Take a rest, the maids will come and help you with the bath.

_ Are you leaving? _There's something I have to do, but I won't be long.

Alessandro kissed her on the forehead and said.

_I promise you.

Alessandro left, April stayed in bed looking at the door, one of the things she hated most about being back in the palace was that Alessandro was always very busy and had almost no time to be with her.

They were back and although Alessandro had only been through the door for a few minutes, she felt alone again, as she had often done in that palace.

*** Alessandro went to his office, there was Sirius waiting for him, when he saw him he stood up, bowed and greeted him.

_Welcome, your majesty.

_Thank you for coming so soon.

_His message seemed urgent, How is the princess? _Alright.

_ Your magic? _It's under control, but she must learn to control her magic.

_ Is that why you called me? _Yes, soon we will start a war against darkness, I do not want her to be a participant in this war, however, I want her to be able to protect herself and for her magic to not get out of control again and endanger her life.

_War is inevitable.

_That's right, the only thing we can do is attack first and destroy King Venobich before he does it first.
