-- Chapter II --
Miakis smiled at the young queen, a heartbroken smile. Lym approached to comfort her knight and friend by embracing her. Then Miakis suddenly laughed out loud that somehow ruined the moment, the auburn-haired queen look at her eerily. "Has she gone nuts??" "Umm..Mi-miakis, are you still alright?" asked the queen who was totally creep out. "I'm fine, don't worry" smirked Miakis at the noble young lady. "If you say so…" said Lym.
"Anyway…Everyone knows Frey loves Lyon..! Hehehe. It's just Lyon is so thick-headed, she barely notice it!! If I were her..I would say and do this-"
Miakis grabbed Lym's teddy bear given to her by her parents. She squeezed the bear tightly and gives smooches at the poor stuff animal.
"Oh Frey! I love you too!! I wish we could be together forever you're as cute as dwaggie horsie!! …You know she could do those things." squeal Miakis as she released the teddy bear.
"More like, what would you do." Mutter Lym followed by her laughter that echoes in the room, about the actions of her protector. "Lyon is not like that! And what do you mean Frey looks like a dragon horse!" protest Lym although she can't help but giggle at the scene. It's also true that Frey cares a lot about Lyon more than anyone else but Lyon is far too numb to notice it.
"I guess so…But I think Frey would really love if Lyon showers him with affectionate kisses or maybe even more." smirked the young knight at the queen who turn red. "I don't think Frey is like that all he is notKyle you know!! I can't believe you…I forbid you to say such things!" Lym object to the silly comment. Miakis laughed at the reaction of the queen.
"If Lyon will keep on being numb…we might snatch Frey away from him!"
Chuckled Miakis the same as Lym was laughing with her. "Why do you plan such things?" Ask the royal youth. "W-what? Hahaha…of course not. I think those two are a cute couple." Respond Miakis and Lym nod in agreement.
"Besides, I just want Frey to know how I feel…"
Smiled Miakis, her eyes determine how she wants to tell her true feeling to the former leader of the Twilight army. "Mi-miakis, well why don't you tell?" asked Lym to her knight. "Hmmm…well I'm looking for the perfect time of course!" Miakis smirk.
"I see." came the short reply from the younger sister of their subject.
"How about you? You're highness."
"Hmmm…what about me?"
"Aren't you planning to tell him..?"
"W-what!? Of course not!" snap Lym to her friend.
"Why is that??"
"Unlike you Miakis, we're siblings!! Have you knocked yourself out to disregard such matter!?" said Lym, she clenches her fist and smack Miakis who whined.
"O-ouch… that hurts"
"Hmmphhh..." ignored Lym
"But you do know…you can't hide your feelings forever. There are times you need to express your feelings in words."
--
"You're highness! You're highness!"
"W-what?? Umm..pardon me." The absent minded queen apologized. "What are we discussing?" asked Lym to her advisor, Luserina Barows. The young advisor was giving a report about the senate's decision upon her new set of policies.
It's seems Luserina perceive that the queen's heart and mind was not within her work today.
"I think we should call it a day. Let's do this next time, my queen." Proclaim the young advisor. "I'm sorry." the queen apologized. "It's alright. The pressure must be getting in you." Reassured Luserina and she left the throne room leaving the queen alone. The young queen sighed for the nth time that afternoon.
"Express in words huh?"

Miakis was strolling around the palace grounds and visiting the Dragon horses.
The Dragon cavalry has been playing a significant role in protecting the Sun palace ever since the previous war and coronation of Lymsleia Falenan. The capital of Falena was being surrounded by Dragon horses under the authority of one of the SOD's, Roog and his assistant Nick.
"Oh dwaggie horsy are so CUTE!!" giggled the young Queen's knight as she gently taps the so-called Dwaggie Horsie. "You're all so adorable!" the purple-haired queen's knight squealed. Miakis beamed she sure love dragon horses. When she was a kid she grew up being surrounded by them. She even dreams of being a dragon horse rider but during those times women are prohibited to join the cavalry. Nowadays women are allowed to be trained into being dragon horse riders and Lun was the first woman to be able to ride with the Dragon horses. Thanks to Rahal's new rule.
Miakis smiled she was very happy for her comrade and she believes Lun really deserves to be a Dragon horse rider. "Hmmm…wonder why her highness got offended. I just said Frey is as cute as dwaggie horsy." Pondered Miakis unknown to her she was already crushing a poor dragon horse. "Ummm..Lady Miakis. I think you are slowly and painfully taking a life of a poor helpless horse related to the dragons." A guard interrupts. "Oh? Silly me. Sorry dwagie horsy!" Miakis tap the head of the dragon horse. "Grrrrinnnk!! Grriiinkkk!" it says. Miakis beamed at horse reply unknown to her that it was glaring.
"I really do envy those dragon horses" a rough and manly voice had spoken.
Miakis giggled and gaze at the man who had spoken. It was the rider of the Dragon horse Lance, Roog. "I rather let Mathias dispatch me into the nearest loathsome lake than to be with you." teased Miakis at her comrade. "That's mean." Roog frowned. Miakis giggled even more at Roog's expression.
The two have a little chat with Miakis constantly teasing the rider of Lance. She isn't numb she knew that Roog has feelings for her ever since they were children. She thinks boys are so easy to read when it comes to liking girls.
"Fine, so you know I like you. It would be fair if I knew who you like the most as well." insisted Roog. Miakis giggled and said in a mischievous tone "it's a secret!" Roog stomp his foot and continued "actually you don't have to tell…I knew who you like." Miakis directly look at his comrade her eye brows are raised.
"It's…Frey right. His you're special boy."
"You're special boy…"
Roog's words echoed in Miakis head that whenever she remembers it she turns red as a tomato. She shut herself in the guard room "Damn, that Roog…but most of all damn this heart!" scold Miakis to herself as she sat down in the couch. She tried to gasp for air due to her heart beating to fast. She needs some rest maybe its time to lie-down for awhile. If she keeps on being awake she would never stop thinking about her special boy.
"That's it! If I saw him…I would grab the opportunity to tell him how I feel!" She said to herself.

The young commander of the Queen's knight was looking for his former bodyguard, Lyon. It seems Lyon was patrolling around the town square since morning and he hasn't seen her. He missed Lyon. Some sentries said Lady Lyon had returned at the castle so the young commander kept on looking for his "girl" friend.
Frey checked the guard rooms and came to halt when he saw a slender figure sleeping in the couch. It was Miakis sound asleep. The young prince approached his comrade and studied the facial features of the girl. "She seems very tired." said the prince and sat at the opposite couch of Miakis. The moonlight shine upon Miakis blinding her eyes that wakes her up. She squint her eyes that focused on a certain person. "P-prince is that you??" asked the sleepy Miakis. Frey put down the book he was reading and smiled at the young knight. "Hello Miakis." The lass blushed and avoid the gaze of the prince.
"W-what are you doing here?"
"Hmm…I just took a rest. I was looking for Lyon you see."
"'Lyon' ohhh…" was all Miakis manage to say.
Frey flicker a sweet smiled again and stood up from the sofa. He walked through the door and bid Miakis goodbye. "See you then Miakis." The young knight nod in approval, clenching her fist she looks at the glass window. The moon shining upon the boy he cared about the most. Those silver-haired locks and matching blue eyes whenever she looks at them her heart beats faster. "I want him to know…I just want him to know!" thought Miakis.
The prince not hearing a word from Miakis decided to leave the room. He was about to open the door when...
"P-prince!"
Miakis ran toward to Frey and hug him, His back turned from her. Frey, the prince was astounded at Miakis' behavior. Miakis tighten her hug to Frey her voice croaking and stuttering as she spoke.
"F-Frey…"
"…" Frey was speechless; it was only once in awhile the little strong-willed knight would address him by his name. Miakis carry on with her confession…
"I-I l-like you…" Miakis manage to say between her sobs. Frey was even more stunned now. "M-miakis…"
"When you were still a child…I always adore you. I never expect that you would grow into a proud good-looking man. It took me long enough to realize… I-I had fallen for you…" confess Miakis tears started to flow through her eyes. Frey smiled at the knight and gently wiped her tears.
"I-I'm sorry to cause you such pain…" he started trying to calm down Miakis' sobbings. "And…I can't return the feelings. Maybe someone out there deserves you more. And I'm sure that person who loves you, more than you could ever expect…and I-I love someone else…Lyon…S-so please don't cry…" Frey stroked the purple hair of Miakis and smile gently. Miakis returned the smiled and said "Thank you…Lyon is so lucky…"
When Frey had leave Miakis alone in the room. The young girl cried again trying to release the pain that was left by the confession. She was happy that her best friend was the girl that the boy he loves treasured the most. "I-it's just hurt…when the person you cared about the most prefers someone else…b-but as long as it's their happiness…I'll support them." Miakis cried herself to sleep maybe sooner or later this pain will fade away.
