Sleeping Cap…I mean recap…
"We just meet the parents at dinner," she answered moving out the door.
"Ah I see," Ryann said, following her.
The kids would try to run ahead of the two older girls but they would stop and wait. Finally, after doing this a few times they all began to skip towards the servants' kitchen and dining area.
The parents came over one by one to pick up the kids before dinner; all the children would wave goodbye and give a small hug before they left.
Chapter 5: The Second Dinner and a Royal Escort
"Hey."
Ryann turned around to find Kamaru standing behind her.
"Oh, hey," she answered looking at the ground.
"What's up?" he asked, sounding innocent.
"Nothing. You?" she asked playing back.
"Nothing really, just on my way to dinner and I was wondering if you would join me," he said taking a step towards the gathered group of people.
She thought for a moment and then decided, "I suppose."
Kamaru took her hand and led her to the food.
The feeling of yesterday night was replayed but it felt almost fake to Ryann as she laughed at a joke.
Everyone walked out of the room and headed towards their own quarters, with Ryann and Kamaru going the opposite direction of everyone else.
They got to Ryann's room and she was about to go in when Kamaru asked another question, "Ryann, what do I have to do to make you love me?"
She looked up at Kamaru in surprise and shock. "Well, um uh"
Ryann was cut off when Kamaru stole a kiss from her.
"Ka-Kamaru, you-you"
"Goodnight Ryann!" Kamaru called over his shoulder already heading back towards his quarters.
She opened her door and then shut it, sliding down the wall.
Kamaru kissed her.
Ryann was suddenly angry. Someone stole a kiss from her and no one was to kiss her unless he was given permission to do so.
"That bastard," she whispered into the darkness of her room.
She slipped her kimono off, tossed it into the wardrobe, and buried herself under the sheets.
However, the thought of Kamaru actually let Ryann sleep that night.
Ryann woke up to loud trumpeting coming from the courtyard. She quickly dressed and walked to the courtyard.
"All Hail, Lady Izayoi and Lords Leon and Lance," she heard a guard announce.
She kneeled with everyone else as the three people walked by with their escort.
Ryann heard Lord Griffin's voice, "Sister! Brothers! Your home!"
She saw his feet walk swiftly over to the three people and he embraced them.
They chattered but then it all stopped and the woman spoke with a soft but powerful voice.
"Negotiations went well," she said.
Ryann couldn't see the gestures going on as they started walking toward the main room of the castle.
The sliding door closed softly with a 'clack.'
"Go back to your duties," the same guard who announced the arrival said as everyone else stood up.
Ryann stood still looking over the crowd trying to find someone familiar.
Someone grabbed her shoulder and she turned around to find Kamaru.
"H-Hey Kamaru," she said trying to get herself under control.
"Hey Ryann," he said with a smile that made her want to melt.
What are you doing?
What? He's cute!
Nonetheless, he stole a kiss from you!
It was only a kiss…(A/N haha sorry it remind me of 'Mr. Brightside' by the Killers)
She had to smile back, "What was all that about?"
Kamaru let go over her shoulder and stood beside her, "Well, that was Lord Griffin's family, Lady Izayoi is the oldest out of them then Lord Leon then Lord Lance and Lord Griffin."
"What did she mean by 'negotiations went well'?" she asked as they began walking.
"Well the three of them went to talk about a truce with the dog demons of the West," he said looking away from her.
"Why the West? I thought the North was attacking us," she wondered.
"Well you see, the leader of the North was killed in a fire and no one has seen his daughter. It is rumored that she died in the fire with him," he said looking up at the sky, which was clouded over.
"And?"
"The West took over. It seems the Lady of the Demon Lord of that territory died about a year ago and it was one of our men who killed her," he explained.
"That's awful!" Ryann exclaimed.
"Yeah," he said rather bored, "but he's getting revenge on us for it but then Lady Izayoi said she'd marry him if he'd leave us alone. Well they actually fell in love but Lord Inutaishou's, the dog demon lord; son hated the fact that his father would actually get married to a human nonetheless only a year after his mother died and is furious."
"Sesshomaru?" Ryann asked surprised.
"Yeah…how did you know?" Kamaru looked at Ryann strangely.
"I-I-I heard of him, I-I-it was rumored he was very handsome," she stuttered.
He laughed. "I see… Well, do you know what he looks like?"
"Not at all."
Kamaru laughed again. "If I was handsome, would you love me?"
Ryann's steps faltered. "I-I-I"
"Your so cute when you stutter," he said lifting her head up by the chin.
Her face flushed over.
"Bye my lady," he said over his shoulder as he strolled away.
Ryann placed her hands on her cheeks to feel the heat of her blush. Her hands could've started sweating.
"Hey Ryann! Anything the matter?" Alyssa asked coming up behind her.
"N-nothing," she said taking her hands away from her face.
"Uh-huh…" Alyssa said, unsatisfied.
Ryann started for the infirmary while Alyssa headed toward the daycare.
The hell is wrong with you?
Nothing…
Bullshit!
Kamaru is a nice guy….
You don't even KNOW him!
He's the best friend I have in the castle!
That was true but it didn't feel right around him…Butterflies must definitely be butterflies.
She found herself smiling at the thought of him. So much so that when she walked into the infirmary Alexander asked if anything was wrong.
"No, nothing at all," she said concealing her smile as she started healing the men, which came in larger groups every day.
With Lord Griff-eh (hehe mika)
"What did Lord Inutaishou say?" Griffin asked his sister.
"He agreed to it!" She sounded like a lovesick teenager.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" he asked her resting his hand on her shoulder comfortably.
She smiled up at her very tall brother, "Oh Griffin, it isn't as if you're never going to see me again."
"That's not what I meant by it…"
His three siblings snickered.
"I don't want you to marry him if you don't want to is all," he said trying to convince them those where is most purest intentions.
"I really do love him though brother," she said consoling him.
"Then I'm happy for you," he said it in a deep voice that didn't convince anyone including himself.
Dusk
Ryann sat outside of her room and stared at the slowly sinking sun in the rainbow colored sky.
Run you fool! Before the moon rises!
But what about dinner? Kamaru will wonder where I am!
So! Your identity will be revealed to everyone INCLUDING KAMARU!
Well….he loves me for me… so he shouldn't care.
Fine WHATEVER!
She sighed….
Ryann slipped around the corner of her quarters and hopped the six feet tall fence easily. She discarded her over kimono next to the fence so as not to rip it during the transformation and stretched her wings. They were so cramped up from no movement in the last couple of days.
She kicked off the fence and took off into the air toward her old house. She had to see what became of her land.
The wind rustled her hair and touched her wings softly. She closed her eyes and just glided. She missed her old life dearly. She opened her eyes and looked at the ground. Ryann saw the beautiful lush green coloring of the treetops, which stopped at clearing… She saw the ruins of her old house. She circled the clearing and she slowly started picking up the little toad like demons slowly removing the debris. Her brows furrowed and she spiraled down toward the ground slowly.
"By whose order do you remove this debris?" She asked in a loud voice that would command the attention of a room.
"By Lord Sesshomaru's!" called one.
"Sesshomaru…."
Hehe tada! This ish all I have to say for thish hehe I hope yall enjoy it!
