I saw her wings for half a second before Fang and I jumped onto her covering her wings. Her wings folded neatly in the back and I stood behind her, her wings completely, concealed. Everyone crowded around Angela. There were a lot of "Are you okay?" Get the doctor" and "Oh dears!". I wouldn't dare budge.

I know what it would be if it was me. I wouldn't let anyone be in that much danger. It was strange, I thought I was the only one cursed with wings. I hadn't realized that someone, in my own kingdom would have the same thing! Why wasn't Fang shocked at all? He was close enough to see her wings but instead of yelling, he protected her. In his eyes were... understanding? Our expressions were identical but he must have a different reason. 3 winged children living in the same kingdom?

And what was Iglandes part of this? He was Angela's sister after all. Perhaps he didn't know. After all, my father doesn't know.

"Maxima,Fang I know you're like me and my brother We need to get out of here!" She whispered so softly, I wasn't sure I heard it. But Iglande definitely heard it. He scooped her up, motioned to us, and then ran. We ran with him. I didn't stop to turn around to see all the peoples expressions. I'd imagined they would be confused, but they let us pass. They probably thought that we were going to the doctor. We slowed down to a jog, as we ran into a forest. We ran for about half an hour. I was panting heavily and lowered myself onto a patch of moss.

"Explain yourselves," I was able to say during panting. Iglande stiffened, but Angela put a hand on his shoulder.

"Its okay,brother," She said calmly. Then she peacefully closed her eyes. "Iglande, they're like us,"

"Impossible," He simply stated. Angela laughed.

"Iggy, they can't fool me," She rolled her eyes. My suspicions were confirmed.

"You can read minds, can't you?" She nodded solemnly. Something about what she said bothered me.

"So, we all have wings?" My eyes flickered to Fang.

"Yes,"

"But how is that possible?"

"Well, how did you get your wings?" I hestitated, not sure whether or not to answer. Then I realized that I helped save her (after I almost killed her) , anyways she reads minds anyways so there really was no point.

"When I was born, Violet blessed me,"- I said her name with as much disgust as I could muster. -"with these," I unfolded my wings. I winced slightly, I had not stretched them out in over 2 weeks.

"So unwise and irresponsible," Angela said. She seemed very mature for her age. Well, I didn't know how old she is but she looked around 4.

"I'm 6," Oh, but still. I often acted older than other girls my age. I have heard that with wings your intellect is improved and you're overall fitness.

"So how did you get your wings?" Not talking to anyone in particular, I was curious to know how anyone got their wings. Fang looked up.
