Hey guys! Here's chapter 39 of Moonlit Princess. And Reader Review Responses:
ShandyCandy- Yes there are plans for a a sequel, but It won't be happy for Yami and Yugi. This one kind of focuses on Heba and Atem so the next will be Yami and Yugi.
Zolata- She'll die...later.
Ern Estine 13624- Vivian is going to cause trouble. It just won't be trouble for Atem and Heba.
GirlFish- Yep. What happens won't be good at all.
xXxWolvesInTheNightxXx- Thanks!
Dark Yugi- Thanks! This is an engagement party, not a wedding but she has a sleeveless dress that is white and gold with a sash. Yugi isn't engaged yet because Yami can't work up the courage to ask her.
KuramaShadowFoxYokai- Heba might not. That might be a one time thing.
I'mAYaoiFanGirl- Yep! It felt so satifying to write that slap.
InuYoiushi- Thanks! I hope you like this chapter, too.
JaytheAnimeLover4EVER- Here's the next one.
Ayumu Hai- Maybe she will. Hope you like this chapter!
Onto the Chapter!
Chapter 39
Heba pulled the dress she was wearing down. "Do I really have to wear this to the party?"
"Yes, Heba." Ryou replied, tying a sash around her waist. "There are lots of rulers and nobles at this party. It is important for everyone to get to know you."
Heba sighed and patted down her dress. "Are you guys coming?"
"We'll be there." Malik said. "But since we're servants, we'll just be serving other guests."
"And Yugi?"
"She's your sister." Ryou said. "She'll be there,too. In fact, before your dress, we actually worked on hers. I think she is waiting for you."
"She is?"
"Yes." Malik nodded, finishing her hair. "Well, you should go now. You don't want to keep your fiancee waiting."
Heba blushed. "I hope this ends soon."
"This is annoying." Yami stood next to his brother.
"What is it?"
"Every noble girl I've passed has been flirting with me, trying to take me as a date to your engagement party." Yami replied. "At least you won't have to deal with it anymore."
"Why not just marry Yugi?" Atem asked. "You already love her so-"
"Not right now!" Yami tried not to raise his voice. "I do love her, but it's your party and so many nobles are here. If they find out that I love Yugi, they might do anything to get rid of her. It would be like we have two Vivians running around.
"Ra save us if that happens."
"Are you ready, Heba?" Yugi asked her sister.
"Yes." Heba muttered. "A little nervous but fine."
"Well, at least you'll have Atem with you most of the night." Yugi said.
"You could always stay close to Yami."
Yugi fiddled with the end of her gold sash. "I don't think he would like that. He has a lot of guests so he'll be busy. I'd probably get in the way."
"I don't think so." Heba said. "I think he'd be happy if you stayed with him."
"Oh...maybe..."
The party had started without a problem. Atem and Heba had gone somewhere to thank everyone who had come to see them. Vivian had not been seen despite the fact that her father had been seen multiple times. Yami was trying to avoid the many noble girls that were attempting to convince him to marry them. Yugi stood next to a window, her white and gold dress flowing in the breeze.
"Congrats to your sister." A familiar voice said.
Yugi jumped and turned to face who had spoken, and widened her eyes in surprise. "Allen!?"
"Could you keep it down a little?" Allen asked. "I was exiled. I'm not supposed to be here."
"But what about Mira?"
"Why do you think I'm here?" Allen asked. "Mira and I wanted to say congratulations to your sister and Atem, but the situation we're in right now makes it hard."
"Oh right."
"Tell Heba that if she or Atem ever needs our help, we'll be happy to return and help." Allen said, getting ready to leave.
"Wait!" Yugi exclaimed. Allen turned to look at her. "Why don't you want to tell her this yourself."
"Look at how much she's enjoying herself." Allen said. "If I showed up, it would ruin the mood. Just tell her I was here, and that Mira and I said congratulations."
"Alright, Allen." Yugi said.
Allen smiled, then leapt away.
And that's it! Hope you enjoyed! Leave a review on your way out!
