Chapter 7

Cedric the great.

When they all got back Alara rushed out of the carriage not wanting to spend another minute with James and Amber.

"You guys shouldn't have played that prank." Sophia hissed as she also got out of the carriage and chased after her sister.

As Alara entered the castle, Cedric came from behind one of the pillars "Princess Alara!" He exclaimed as he stepped right in front of her path.

"Oh how was your first day of school my dear?" He asked her

"Tougher than I thought it would be." She mumbled

"Oh you poor thing." He mocked has he petted her head.

"Well then how would you like a private tour of my lair- I am workshop." He asked as she gestured up the stairs

"You know, not even the king himself has seen it" He whispers to her.

Inside of a very dark room in Cedric's workshop.

"And, this, my dear, is where the magic happens." Cedric declared as he clapped his hands together so the candles could light up.

As Alara was looking around she saw a book with a picture of her amulet!

"Hey, that looks just like my amulet." Alara exclaimed.

"Well I'll be a dragon's uncle you're right." He said smirkingly

"Oh but if you had the amulet of avalor you know for it contains powerful magic…" Cedric started

"With each deed performed for better or worse and power is granted a blessing or curse." cedric looked at Alara

"Really?" Alara asked, spinning around to face him.

"If it is the real amulet, but only a certified sorcerer such as myself could tell for sure. If you like, I can take a quick look at it." He smirked

"I don't know…" Alara looked down at her amulet in confusion; she promised to never take it off.

"Oh, I'll give it right back I promise." Cedric sneered

"But I promised to never to take it off and my mother says a broken promise can never be glued back together." Alara smiled at cedric

'How irritatingly charming.' He thought

"Oh wait, look at the time, I hope you enjoyed it. I know how hard it can be adjusting to royal life so if you ever need any help my door is always opened." Cedric said before he closed the door.
