Chapter 35
After the execution, Heba had started to walk in the gardens for long periods of time. She was lost in thought thinking about her father and the one she thought was her father. It was hard to tell which memories tied with the men.
"Are you alright?" Heba jumped and turned to look at the person who had asked, Prince Atem. "You seem pale."
"I do?" Heba wondered. "I guess I'm thinking too much on it, but I'm trying to figure out what I know about my real father."
"Oh," Atem was silent for a minute. "And have you come up with anything?"
"No." Heba shook her head. "I can't even remember him leaving to go on a trip of any kind."
"Hmm..." Atem was about to say something when he heard someone come up behind him and suddenly push him into a small room. "What the!"
"What was that?" Heba's voice came from beside him. The prince thanked Ra that the room was dark, because he didn't want Heba to see his bright red face.
"Let us out of here!" Atem shouted.
"Sorry Prince!" Bakura's taunting voice replied. "We're all kind of tired watching you beat around the bush with the one you love, so we're putting our matchmaking plan into action."
"What!" Heba and Atem's voices mixed together in shock.
"Confess your feelings, Prince!" Marik shouted. "We'll let you out then."
"Are you sure that was okay?" Ryou asked. "Leaving them locked in there, I mean."
"What? Come on Ryou, we're helping them get together." Bakura replied. "It's either Heba and Atem or Vivian and Atem."
Ryou shuddered. Even if the white haired girl was nice, she could not bring herself to like Vivian.
"Oh? Are you talking about me?" A haughty voice came from behind them. The two turned to see Vivian glaring at both of them, but mostly Ryou.
"What if we were?" Bakura said to her coldly.
"I'll have you thrown in prison, and that little toy of yours will be whipped."
Bakura froze, and tried to keep his anger under control. A toy? There was no way Ryou was a toy to him, if Vivian even hinted it again in his presence, he wouldn't be responsible for what happened.
"Excuse me." Ryou said, snapping Bakura out of his murderous thoughts. "How would you know if I was being used? You haven't really shown that you even like anyone or anything."
"Why you!" Vivian stepped foreward ready to slap the white haired servant girl.
"Don't even try it." Bakura grabbed Vivian's hand.
"Tch." Vivian ripped her hand away from the captain of the guard. "Whatever. Just don't get in my way." Then the noblewoman walked away.
Ryou sighed in relief as soon as she was gone. "I was scared. I thought I was actually going to be slapped."
"Hah, no way." Bakura said, pulling her close. "If I'm alive or if I'm even breathing no one is going to hurt you."
Ryou was silent for a moment before she responded.
"Thank you."
And that's it! Hope you enjoyed! Leave a review on your way out!
