HAPPY NEW YEAR MY LOVELY READERS! So here is a new chapter, I kinda didn't want to leave it here, but i promise you this next chapter will be a good one. ;) I have some ideas for the party. Again thank you for the review, follows, and favs! You are what keeps me motivated!
I only own my OCs.
Elena stared blankly at the man as he attempted to stand through the mass of camera man that now currently surrounded them. The anger and frustration the man showed only continued to fuel her anxiety.
"EVERYONE! BACK UP NOW!" Nyx hollered above the voices.
Elena not really listening to anything else Nyx was saying, stood rooted in her spot gripping his forearm tightly. Not ever has the media been this demanding, or the citizens having the nerve to grab at her. She knew this moment was one for the books, multiple flashing lights from cameras were going off around them, blinding her because of their close proximity. The reporters were writing swiftly on their pads, most likely filled with false information. Scrunching her face Elena began to push all her weight into Nyx hoping he'd understand that it was time to go. Whatever was going to be published in the coming days wasn't going to be anything spectacular.
It took some time, and a good amount of threats, but the mass of people started to thin, and her "attacker" held up his hands in surrender.
"Again, if anyone blocks our path, immediate arrest!" Nyx promised as he retracted his arm from around her waist and grabbed ahold of her hand.
Sighing softly as she was given her little bit of space back. Elena gave the crowd a strained smile, and wave with her free hand as she ignored the questions being thrown at them, and put her immediate focus on following in step with Nyx.
It took only seconds for them to finally reach, and secure themselves in the safety of the vehicle. As Elena waited for their escape she couldn't help but glare out the window towards the people.
"You are lucky they can't see through those windows Princess, that face would surely make the front cover." Nyx joked as he didn't waste anytime starting the engine and peeling off in the direction of the Citadel.
"Nyx, its fine." Elena groaned in annoyance as she quickly made her way through her suite. "He wouldn't of done anything serious."
Since leaving the boutique Elena has been failing miserably at convincing Nyx everything was fine. Yes it was a stressful situation that could of went multiple ways, but she knew no real harm would of come to her.
"That's not the point-" Nyx once again began to argue.
"Glaive thats enough!" Elena snapped as she turned sharply in his direction. It was always hard when she used her authority on him but he really needed to drop it.
Frowning at the look of hurt and anger on his face, she sighed in defeat as she took a seat on her plump sofa. "Besides the worse that will come from this is each news article will have a terrible photo of us."
"Ulric, you're needed in the infirmary." A man that not even Elena recognized interrupted from his spot in the hallway.
Tilting her head to the side in question, she knew the only thing that would bring him down there would be an injured teammate. Glancing up she could tell that Nyx seemed to understand that as well.
"Understood." He nodded towards the no name man who quickly retreated back down the hallway.
"That's strange." Elena spoke softly while pulling her feet up onto the couch in a more comfortable position. Since returning she wasted no time changing into a pair of pajama pants, and a tank top, deciding it would be best if she stayed in for the night. She also wanted to attempt a phone call with her brother as well.
"This shouldn't take long." Nyx turned to look at Elena.
Elena gave a small shrug as she lifted her phone from the large ottoman and begin shifting through the contacts. "It's fine. I will be having my dinner brought up tonight. You can go home for the night."
Nodding Nyx quickly made his way towards the exit, slowing down when he heard the soft voice of the princess.
"Nyx? It's probably nothing serious-" Elena began to say.
"Call if you need an escort." Is all he said as he made his way into the hall, closing her grand doors in the process.
Elena was lounging comfortably in her bed staring silently at the black screen of her phone.
It had been five days since the last she had heard from her brother, and Nyx. As frustrating as it was she wasn't going to let it get it her. Noctis was safe and probably waiting to board the ship for Altissia. And Nyx was more than likely put on another assignment.
"Princess Elena? We are here to get you ready for the event tonight." A small female voice came from behind the closed doors of her suite.
"Uh, yeah sorry." Elena called out as she jumped quickly from her bed, and grabbed her robe. "Come in."
"We have much to do." Snapped old lady Mary as she pushed her way through her staff, while giving the princess a once over. "What have you been doing huh? Laying in bed all day at your age does nothing good."
With a twitch of her brow, Elena pulled her robe tighter around her frame. "I'm sorry ma'am."
With a tsk the lady snapped her fingers giving the order for her staff to move in. Elena didn't technically hate getting pampered before an event night, but she did strongly dislike Mrs. Mary.
"Where's Elizabeth?" Elena asked as she allowed the other girls to guide her to a chair which was surrounded by large mirrors and lights.
"She is with Lady Lunafreya." Mary actually answered politely.
Leaning back in the chair Elena closed her eyes as the girls quickly got started on her hair, and nails. "Ah. Of course." She nodded hiding her anxiety.
Luna had arrived in Insomnia only a day ago, she has been kept well 'hidden' since then, not even Elena has been able to see her. From the little bit of information her father had shared from a short meeting he had with her, the mission to sneak her to Noctis had ultimately failed. With that being said the King had her as well locked away in her room with security stationed at every inch of her floor.
"We need the princess perfect before sun down." Mary ordered as she hung Elenas beautiful gown from the canopy bed. "Niflheim needs to be blown away by the Princess of Insomnia"
