The next day Mokuba was scared to go to class. School often reminded him of Nosaka and now the terror of Kisara. So, it wasn't easy for him to want to go. But he knew Seto would be disappointed in him if he didn't go. He walked in and was sad to see Varon wasn't there. Seto had decided to give the new one the benefit of the doubt.
Samantha looked up and smiled. "Come in little one, it's all right."
Mokuba walked over to her and sat down. He still had a small fear that she might be like Kisara.
"Now let's start the test."
Mokuba sighed and nodded. He made it to a hard question similar to one Kisara had given him. He looked over and thought she would be like Kisara writing up another test or impatiently waiting for him to finish. Instead, she was reading a book.
Samantha looked up and Mokuba was surprised to see her smiling as she walked over. "Hey, do you need help?"
"I d-don't understand t-this."
"Well let's see." Samantha said. Then she read the question. "So does that help any?"
Mokuba shook his head no; fearing she'd yell at him like Kisara did when he couldn't do it.
"Well then skip it and move on. It'll just be something more to work on then won't it?"
Mokuba was greatly surprised at that.
"Do you need more help, little one or do you want to finish on your own?"
"F-finish."
"All right."
Mokuba was surprised that she went back to reading her book.

A couple of hours later, little Sami had decided she was going to have Seto! So she grabbed Rune and they hid in the back of Talana's wagon the same day she was going to the castle for Mokuba's speech classes.
Once they arrived they barely managed to make it to the throne room without being caught.
"Sami, are you sure about this? What if Varon catches us?"
"That's what you are here for."
"What?"
"You are here to distract Uncle Varon and make sure he doesn't interfere."
"You know you're only going to get caught and get into trouble don't you. Not to mention taking me down with you!"
"You worry too much, once Seto is mine all will be forgiven."
"Give me a break, I thought you hated guys. Last month you wouldn't even play with me cause you said we were all icky!"
"That was last month. I am much more mature now!"
"Yeah, I heard Varon tell mother all about your screaming fit and marriage claims."
"Well I know I shouldn't have been so upfront with my feelings. He's the first guy I've ever had a serious crush on. I only did what I've seen some of the older girls in town do with their guys. How was I to know he couldn't handle someone being so strong willed and telling their feelings? As for my screaming fit, excuse me but how would you feel if you just found a puppy on the side of the road and was about to pick it up and take it home when Uncle Varon picks you up and tells you, you can't have it?"
"Okay, point taken I'd be screaming and yelling too. But this guy has to be about mom's age. What makes you think he'll fall for you?"
Sami tosses back her long blonde hair and says, "I know I can be sophisticated if I try. Mom always says I can be a perfect angel if I want to be. Now you distract the guard on the door."
"If I get grounded for this you'll owe me big time!"
"Yeah, whatever get going." Sami said, pushing Rune forward.
Rune did his job and lured the guard away. Then he managed to hide and escape him.

Sami walked in; she'd worn her fanciest yellow party dress. She walked in but then stopped in shock and horror. There was Seto sitting on the throne steps talking to a young woman about 19 with long black hair. 'How could he! How dare he cheat on me!'
Outraged, Sami walked over to them. "How could you do this? How could you cheat on me?"
Seto was shocked he didn't think he'd ever see her again.
"Seto, who is this?" Natalia asked.
"Mokuba's guard Varon, it's his niece."
"What does she mean by cheating on her?"
"She has this strange delusion that we're going to get married."
"Oh I think it's cute." Natalia said.
"Cute! You think it's cute to steal someone else's boyfriend?" Sami asked.
"Wow, she has it bad for you Seto." Natalia said.
"Alister."
"Yes, my king?"
"Find Varon and get him in here now! Then go to the first floor den and you'll find a young lady with long brown hair with Mokuba. Tell her, her daughter is here."
"Yes, my king."
The last thing Sami wanted at the moment was her mother and uncle interfering with her. She quickly stepped in front of Alister.
"No, you're not going anywhere. My mother and uncle have no place here. This is my business."
Alister just shook his head and walked away.
"Seto, how could you send for them like that? They will only get in the way of us. Drop the witch and tell me that you love me!"
"Look kid, I'm sure you're nice and all and someday will probably break a lot of hearts. But I told you; I'm too old for you. When you get older you'll find someone just for you."
"That's so sweet Seto." Natalia said, kissing Seto on the cheek.
"How dare you kiss my man!" Sami said.
But before she could do anything Varon came running in and picked Sami up.
"My king, I am so sorry. I have no idea how she got in here." Varon said holding the struggling Sami.
Sami was pushing at Varon to get him to release her.
Just then, Talana came running in with Rune in tow.
"Varon what's going on? I was told Sami was here then I found Rune here sneaking around the halls."
"I'm not exactly sure all I know is they're both going to get it."
"No, please, mommy. Seto and I were made for each other. It's our destiny to be together!"
"You have got to stop letting her read your romance novels!" Varon said.
"My king, I swear this will not happen again." Varon said.
"It's perfectly alright you may leave." Seto said.
"Thank you, my king." Varon said, turning and heading towards the door still holding Sami. "You are both extremely lucky that the king is so kind." Varon yelled at the kid's in a loud whisper.
"Varon is right. The king might not be so kind if this were to happen again." Talana said in the same loud whisper.
"Yeah, so nice and dreamy." Sami said.
"Aunt Talana, can I burn your books in the fireplace?" Rune asked.
As Talana and Varon laughed, Sami didn't find any of it funny!
