P.O.V Aurora

-What should we do?!- asked my mother desperately to my father- What if they find her?!

-They won't!- my father lord of the southern lands of Fiore stated- We will hire one of the ten saint mages to keep her safe... in a far place from here hidden from the eyes of everyone- i sighed "As dramatic as always father".

-I wouldn't choose one of the ten saint mages they emanate to much magic energy my lord- Gaston, one of my father's closest friends, advised "He is right you should listen to him"- Why don't you hire Laxus Dreyer? He defeated Jura and it's a very powerful S-class mage- "I like that idea...".

- My love i think that Gaston is right- my mom tried to convince my father. She saw this year's Grand Magic Games with me as always and noticed my admiration towards the thunder mage. She probably thought that i would be more comfortable with him than with anyone else "Always thinking about me mother..." i smiled at the thought.

-As always Gaston, my friend, you had a great idea!- father placed a hand on his shoulder- We will hire Laxus Dreyer from Fairy Tail. However, we won't tell her anything we don't want her worrying about anything- "If by anything you mean my life, then yes anything it is" i sarcastically thought- That's all for now, leave- father ordered and everyone did as he said.

'''That's all my lady''' Cheshire bowed and disappeared into thin air.

'''Thanks''' i told him "So Laxus Dreyer will be my knight in white armor"...

P.O.V Laxus

-Laxus come to my office!- my grandfather called out for me. Everyone stood still, maybe thinking that i was in problems... damn i even think i am in problems... ever since i was accepted back in Fairy Tail i had been very careful not to bring the rage of my grandfather over me... and i had been doing a perfect job... "Then why does he want to talk with me?". I walked slowly towards the Master's office and knocked the door- Come in!- i heard him say from inside. I entered the room and found myself with... a very happy Master Makarove "Uf! And i thought that he was mad".

-What's up Gramps?- i asked more relax this time.

-You better don't use that kind of manners when you will meet the royals- he scolded me.

-Wait a minute! Royals?- i was beyond confuse "Did he drink too much alcohol?".

-Yes, i had just received a message from the Southern Lord- he began "Southern Lord?"- He requested you to guard his only daughter!

-He requested me?!- i exclaimed surprise "How did the Southern Lord know about me?".

-Yes!- i could see Gramps jumping on his seat from the excitement of being one of the few guilds that had been asked to do a job from one of the five royal families- He heard from one of his closest men about your victory against Jura, and decided that you will be the one for this six months job.

-Six months?- "I'll have to guard an annoying royal daddy's girl for six fucking months?!... no way happening".

-Yes, but maybe more it depends on how much they'll take to resolve the case- Gramps continued telling me excited not noticing my annoyance at all "Fucking perfect! If i don't want him getting angry at me i'll have to take this fucking request"- They'll give you all the information once you get there. Also, the job will be paying you ten million jewels- "Ten million?! Well now we are talking... maybe i could stand her if they'll pay me that quantity..."- You'll be leaving tonight so go and pack!- he ordered me.

-Tonight?! Why this fast?- i asked.

-Because the fastest you get there, the fastest you are protecting her- his excited expression turned serious- And for nothing at all you should tell anyone about this mission.

I gulped audibly and nodded my head before leaving his office "It's been one of the few times i had seen Gramps so serious about something... this mission must be important..."- Laxus!- called me a very cheerful Mirajane "Mira the perfect woman to make this day better!". It's not that i'm in love with her or something like that... i only like having sex with her... no emotion at all involve... and she knows that too... so no one gets hurt- What did Master want to talk you about?- she asked curious.

-Only about a mission in which i was requested- i told her leaning down on the bar so i could whisper in her ears seductively without anyone noticing... after all we wanted to keep our relationship as a secret- Unluckily i'm leaving for six months starting for tonight... so what do you say about a private goodbye party?

-I'd love that- she giggled and winked at me.

P.O.V Aurora

'''Cheshire what do you want to show me?''' i asked curious to my oldest friend while running after him through the corridors of the mansion. If anyone would see me they would scold me really bad for acting like a child... of course if they could see me...

'''Just follow me''' he said smiling as always '''We are here!''' he announced stopping in front of the painting of my Aunt Rene making me feel confused.

'''What are we doing here?''' i asked him.

'''Just look behind it''' he told me and i did as i was ordered... and you'll see my surprise when i discovered a secret passage '''I had just discovered it'''.

'''Just that's strange''' i told him entering, behind him, the passage '''I thought you knew all the secret passages of the mansion... and all our lands too''' i smirked at him.

'''New one''' he purred as a cat would do.

-What do you mean by Laxus Dreyer is coming to protect the Lord's daughter?!-i heard an unfamiliar voice yell angrily '''You can hear the conversations of some rooms''' Cheshire told me- He is stronger than Jura!

-I know- another unfamiliar voice answered "Both of them seem to be men"- But Laxus Dreyer was expulsed from Fairy Tail once because he did a strike to take over the control of the guild as it's new Master- "He did what? And i that admired him!"- He was forgiven and welcomed back. However, i'm sure that if we promise him Fairy Tail's Master place he will give us the girl easily.

-I hope you are right- the other man answered- For your own well being...

'''We have traitors between us!''' i exclaimed.

'''What should we do?''' Cheshire asked worried for me.

'''I have a plan''' i told him.

P.O.V Laxus

-Last stop Southern Lands!- the conductor of the train announced "Thank Mavis! I thought i would die in this fucking machine... luckily i was mostly of the travel asleep". I took my time walking towards the mansion and watching the surroundings... by the look you could say that they were taken good care of them... "Maybe this royal family isn't as bad as i thought...".

When i was about a kilometer from the mansion i heard the footsteps of a horse... a horse that was going too fast... and in my direction! When i was about to move from the path, so i wouldn't be crushed by a horse, this one jumped over me and then stopped- I'm so sorry!- a feminine voice apologized getting off the horse and running to my side- Are you ok?- she asked me.

- You should be more careful next time- i growled at her.

-Well it's not a big deal!- she exclaimed angrily.

-You almost killed me!- i pointed out.

-I jumped!-she argued back.

-But what could have happened if you didn't?!

-Let's don't start with the game of 'what if' please- she huffed "This chick is crazy!"- I had been riding horses ever since five years old! And you were the one that took the incorrect path!- "Incorrect path?"- You didn't know about it?- she asked gently "She changes fast" i sweat dropped and nodded- Well this path...- she pointed at the one she was ridding at and i was walking through-... is the path for horse ridding- she told me- You are new, aren't you? I had never seen your face here before- i nodded again "Why is she so kind to me... now?"- You surely must be asking yourself why i'm not acting like a the witch i was before- i nodded again "Does she read minds?"- Well you blamed me for almost killing you when you had the fault for being in the incorrect path, how would you react in my shoes?- she shrugged from shoulders "Like you" i answered in my head.

-But i didn't know!- i growled at her annoyed because i knew that she was right.

-I know!- she shouted back but then clenched her fists and took a deep breath- Now i do- she continued calmer "Wow... she is trying hard to don't snap at me... even though she doesn't know me... plus i'm acting like a real jerk..."- Could it be that you were heading towards the mansion of the Southern Lord?- she asked "She is very polite".

-Yes, i am- i just said a bit annoyed at how much time this conversation was taking me.

-I'll walk you there so you don't get crashed by another horsed- she sighed bothered.

-If it bothers you so much you shouldn't do it- i told her with a glare.

-Wipe that glare away from your face darling, a gentleman shouldn't act like that towards a lady- she told me with a mocking tone "D darling?!"- And to answer your question, it doesn't bother me at all- she flashed me a gentle smile which caused me to keep staring at he... "What a kind smile..."- Come on darling- her smile changed from gentle to cheerful "She has nice smiles...".

-So you work at the mansion?- i asked her trying to do a conversation and trying to sound the most disinterested i could... after all i was very curious about this girl and her attitude.

-Not at all- she giggled- My father is the lord of the lands- i almost tripped with my own feet "She is the girls i'll be guarding?!"- Are you ok?- she asked worried noticing me almost tripping.

-Yes, i am- i grumped a bit embarrassed.

-You know you could be a little bit more friendlier- she pouted making me laugh.

-Sorry babe but this is how i am- i simply told her- Also, why should i be more friendlier to a completely stranger?

-My aunt used to say that 'if you receive the world with a smile you would be received with one'- now her smiled was a bittersweet and a bit sad.

-Used to?- i asked with a gentleness that i surprised myself.

-She is dead- she said and sighed looking at the sky. When i was about to give her my condolences she cut me off- Don't you dare to tell me sorry darling- she looked at me, her smile once again cheerful- It's not something we should feel sad about. We can miss her everyday... but we will always know that she is in a better place- "She is wise... for being a daddy's girl...".

-Then i should call you your highness- i joked bowing down at her... but her soft gaze turned into a glare.

-Don't joke about those kind of things. That's only my father's title, i don't want to be compared to him. I'm me and not my father!- she told me with so much seriousness that remembered me from... me "She is in the same as me...".

-Then tell me your name and i'll call you by that- i told her with a smile... not my womanizer smile... a true smile.

-A gentleman should present himself first- she told me with a true smile... a smile that reflected her soul... and kindness.

-Laxus- i extended my hand- Laxus Dreyer.

-Aurora- she took my hand and shacked it- Aurora Fantasia.
