Chapter 19
Why Joey was on her way to a palace, with an annoying Priest that kept calling her puppy, she didn't know. All she knew for sure was, she would try to avoid this guy.
"Stop trying to find ways to avoid me, Puppy." The priest smirked as if he had read her mind.
"How did-"
"Your face says it all." He replied, cutting her off.
Joey sighed in annoyance and looked away.
Since Yugi was still recovering and her father was here, Heba had tried to know everyone at the palace better.
Malik was nice. She was blunt, straightforward, and was hard-working. They hit it off right away. Heba also noticed that Malik seemed to be spending a lot of her time with Marik, but she never pried.
Then she met Ryou. She was a sweet girl. They did have some disagreements, but they got along.
Mira...a mystery. They didn't see each other, but she had helped Yugi, so she wasn't hated.
Then, Vivian. Since the moment they had arrived, Heba knew she would hate her. She wasn't wrong. Vivian had attempted to draw everyone's attention from Yugi's attack onto herself. Thank Ra, no one had bought it. Especially Atemu.
The prince had been watching her, almost as though he was checking on her. Heba shook her head. Heba shook her head. She had other things to focus on...like her father.
The assassin was sitting in their small, stolen throne in the dark room. The noble hadn't shown up, so they assumed the job was over. Saying they were glad was an understatement. Even though they were trained to do this since they were a child, guilt still settled in their soul, but it would vanish when they felt the sharp pain of the scars on their back.
The door was suddenly broken down and palace guards came into the room.
"We are taking you into custody," One guard said. "For murder of innocents, and attempting to murder Lady Yugi."
"Meh." The assassin stood and held their hands up. "Do whatever."
They left the room, spears pointed at them.
"Pharaoh." A servant bowed. "Because of an anonymous source, we have captured the assassin that attack Lady Yugi."
"Good job." The Pharaoh replied. "Go tell my sons and Lady Heba. We will commence the trial once Lady Yugi wakes up."
And that's it! Leave a review on your way out.
