Interlude 2
"Unholy Union"
Warm fire lit the room. Candles and lanterns were sitting on tables, flickering shadows danced across the wall. Two women were sitting in to large, comfy chairs. They were laughing and seemed to be in very high spirits.
"He really fell off the ledge?" Ahn said and wiped tears from her eyes.
"Yeah, then all of the women gained up on him. Man, I never thought the idiot would actually spy on us when we were bathing," Spring said and chuckled again. "Pith was in the infirmary for a month."
"I'd feel sorrier for him if he wasn't peeping," Ahn said with a giggle. The women fell into laughter once more.
"Now, for the real reason I asked you here," Spring said. Ahn sat up straight. "I've noticed our royals have been giving each other odd looks lately."
Ahn began to sweat a little. "And if they have?"
"I, and just about everyone else for that matter, have nothing against it. We just want to see her happy. So, how are we going to hook them up?"
The sudden question had caught Ahn off guard. She gaped at the Elysian woman and shook her head. "I have no clue. Something subtle would be best, at least at first. I'm kind of worried about what my uncle would do."
"Your uncle?" Spring asked confused.
"Canaan is my mother's brother. He doesn't seem to like Eva that much," Ahn said with a slight blush.
"Well, let's just ignore that for a moment. What would be something subtle for those two?" Spring said. The duo sat in thought. Everything was quiet.
"I have it!" Spring yelled and leapt to her feet. Ahn jumped in surprise. "We have a dinner with them, but then don't show up because of "work related duties." It's perfect."
Ahn thought it over for a moment; then nodded. "It's a good idea and we always have the same failsafe: lock them in a room until they finally admit they love each other."
The two laughed, which was a very scary thing the traitor that was walking by Spring's room. Ahn bid her friend and partner in this endeavor goodnight and headed for the Naurasian rooms. She entered quietly and hid in the shadows when she saw the two royals sitting in the common room talking to each other. Her eyes widened when she saw the kiss, and had to hold back her giggles. Oh, yeah. Spring was definitely going to hear about this.
