Kel woke up to some wide-eyed servants, her whole body ached like she was tied to a horse, "Who are you? Where am I?"

The servants jumped up, one racing to a door and another to a closet while the last one stayed and answered Kel.

"Milady, I am Alessia and Cailyn is fixing you a bath and Alena is getting you some clothing. You're at Masbolle right now, do you remember anything?"

The funny thing is that she didn't remember anything. Masbolle where had she heard that before? Kels head hurt. The servant smiled but it was a mischievous one, making Kel uncomfortable.

"I can't recall how I got here – the last thing I remember is the war ending."

"That's great you missed nothing!" The servants reaction was fake and Kel knew. What had happened to her? All she knew was she had to find out and fast.

Dom walked in to see Kel awake, before he came in the servant had signaled to Dom of Kel's memory loss. Kel saw Dom, he smiled but something wasn't right…she didn't melt and was having that feeling again, just like the one with Neal and Cleon. She didn't like him anymore.

Dom sat next to her on the bed and started the speech he had practiced, "Kel, It's about time you woke up! Meathead has been pestering me! After the celebration you had too much to drink and we had to tie you to your saddle to get you this far! It was like you forgot that we were going to visit my parents the day after the celebration!"

Kel was visiting Dom's parents! It was her dream coming true but she didn't love him any more what would she say!

"Um…Dom? I…um…did I say anything after I was drunk?"

"Yeah a lot of things but none made sense, why?"

"Oh good! I would have hated to say something I would regret today! How long have I been asleep?"

"A couple of days because Neal's knots were as clumsy as him and you kind of fell…"

"oh maybe that's why I don't remember anything…"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Roald and everyone else who loved Kel were in her room talking to Tobe as Neal healed a very large bump on his head.

"I told you Kel was looking very frighten and wasn't wearing her mask as Dom had her cornered in the room. When I told her about the wedding she was so sad and then when looked up to say something her eyes said trouble and Dom pulled out a cloth and knock her out and two big men bashed me around till I went black!"

Tobe's accent didn't fail even though he was scared and in pain. He had also been asleep for a few too many days.

Roald lost his temper. "I want Dom's head cut off! Send out teams to search for them! Get spies; get Daine and the animals; and all the mages! I want no house left un-searched or rock unturned!" He continued about finding Kel then he left the room in tears. Why? Why had he been so stupid and not put guards in front of Kel's door!

Then he headed for the stables. His mare was ready to go and he left for Masbolle. No one saw him leave because they were looking for Kel.

Dom had a feeling Roald would be coming soon but in how long? He wasn't going to wait. After Kel was cleaned up they talked over dinner. Dom's parents were in the Copper Isles visiting some old friends and he was safe here for now…

"Dom? Dom?"

"Oh sorry I was thinking of going back to New Hope for a nice trip down memory lane." He said flashing a smile he hoped would make her heart flip.

"Sounds nice…" She didn't like being alone with Dom it made her…uneasy, "When did you want to go?"

"Now." That was fast and he wasn't joking either. Kel's smile faded.

"Now! But it's so soon!"

"I heard they are tearing it down next week and thought time is running out." He said calmly.

"Tearing it down? But why? it is perfect and if war breaks out…oh no I can't let them!" Kel had forgotten Dom's presence and was feeling her eyes water, New Hope was her second home –how could they tear it down? "We must go. How long will it take to get there?"

"Not long, at least not a week but not a day either, but weather is unpredictable…" He got her, a cruel trick but keeping on the move was the idea and then when she was in love with him let them be found.

"I'll get ready." Kel got up to leave then stopped, "I don't have anything here."

"That's okay we can see if I got some breeches and shirts for you." That should make Roald happy.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile Roald, running on a piece of bread and a kiwi, was galloping towards Masbolle, his horse slowed wanting a break from his rage but to be patted and asked "please I need to save her!" The horse understood.

Kel saw Dom did have some smaller things and Kel picked through them finally getting enough and realized that she was wearing some of his clothes already…they looked wrong on her. She was paying no attention to her surrounds while she tugged at the tunic and Dom had came up behind her and turned her around. Brushing his lips on her hand and he asked, "Do you like?"

Kel didn't like it and pushed away, she had a feeling this would happen but didn't know why.

"What was that for?"

Dom's hands had appeared around her waist…again. "What was what for?"

"You know what that kiss on my hand!" She tried to move his hand but he grabbed her wrist.

With a disappointed face "You didn't like it? I'm sorry, let me try again…" But this time he was going for the lips…

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kel's scream had reached Roald's ears! "Hang on Kel I'm coming!" but as he let these words escape his mouth, his horse was shot in the head by an arrow. The prince was thrown off his mount into the mud. He just rolled to cover and ran towards the scream. He reached Masbolle and was welcome with more arrows, meaning Kel and Dom where there.

"Dom let go of me!" Kel had heard herself scream. She felt help was on its way too, but didn't know who the help was. "Dom!"

"Kel don't you love me? Why did you flirt with me for four years!"

"It was just a crush! Well I did like you…I liked you up until today!"

"How can you wake up not liking me!" Dom was sure she still had something holding her back.

"She just woke up loving someone else!"

Kel and Dom turned their attention towards the person in the door.
