Master Xander was silent for a long while and Axel was beginning to wonder if he had asked a wrong question.
Something in his guts wanted him to say *yes* so Axel would get the lady, but recalling how easily irritated he could be by a new contact, he changed his mind.
So, without saying a word, he walked away into the bathroom and Axel took that as a *no*.

Kaylan yawned and stretched on the bed and her hand ended up hitting Jaden on the face.
"Ouch! What's wrong with you, Kaylan??" Jaden shrieked as she pushed her hand away and sat up.
"Oh... Sorry doll" Kaylan said yawningly and also sat up.
"Hmmmmm. What a bright morning".
"Yeah. A bright morning for the newest bride! Anyway, I need to get ready to leave now. I'll be..."
"H
"Sharon??" Mansi called in surprise as she walked closer to her."Hey, honey. Finally, you returned!" Princess Sharon squealed happily as she dropped the brush she was holding. "I've been waiting for so long for you"."Hold on, what're you doing here? I mean...how did you get here?" Mansi scoffed."Urgh? Can't I pay a visit to my friend anymore?" Sharon rolled her eyes and Mansi strolled to the table."Anyway, welcome". She mumbled as she arranged the books on the table."So, how have you been, Mansi? How's Lord Xander?" Sharon asked and Mansi shut her a suspicious stare."Since when did you start asking after Lord Xander, Sharon? Anyway, he's in his chambers - incase you want to see him" Mansi replied sarcastically."Oh!! Seriously Mansi. I'd really love it if you could take me to his room".
"Where's your bet?" The fat man asked immediately and that was when it dawned on Kaylan that she was actually coinless.Oh,damn? Why didn't she think about this???She looked at Jaden who was staring at her with an *I told you* look.Then, she turned back to the man"Um.... Let's just go on with the game first. I'm sure I'll win" she said and the man looked at her like she had actually gone mad."So, you want me to stake my money while you stake nothing? Are you stupid?" He chuckled."Hey, you have to trust me, okay? I'll...""And what if you lose?" One of the watchers asked and she gave a thought to it.Can she actually lose?"Well, if I lose, feel free to beat me up" she shrugged.Then, the fat man smirked and leaned closer"If I lose, you'll spend the n
Xander turned immediately, hearing the scream and his eyes glinted when he saw Kaylan.She crawled down from the window immediately, falling to the floor and almost hurting her leg due to the speed she used."Kaylan!" Jaden shriekedShe had been surprised at the way she screamed.Immediately, Kaylan ran to the nearest bush and threw up."Kaylan?!" Jaden called in Surprise.What the hell is wrong with her??Her hand was on her chest as she emptied everything in her mouth and by the time she stood up straight, she was panting heavily."Oh my God...Oh my God..." She gibbered, Jaden holding her so she doesn't fall."Hey! Kaylan, talk to me. What's wrong?""We need to go. We...We need to..." .she held Jaden's hand and they ran off immediately.***
The next morning.Kaylan sat in front of the mirror as Jaden helped her pack her hair."But Kaylan, are you sure about this? I hope we don't get caught?" Jaden asked as she passed the band through her hair, giving it a perfect style."Of course, not Jaden. And even if we do get caught, what we're doing isn't wrong. So, I don't grg why we should be punished. We're just going out to catch some fun" Kaylan rolled her eyes and stood up since Jaden was done with the hair."Hold on, I think we'll be needing a bag for today" She rushed to her closet and pulled out one of her favorite bags."Here - you should hold it" she gave it to Jaden who collected it and hung it around her neck.And off - they left the room**They walked into the tanvern and was a bit surprised of how full it was - compared to the previous day. Oh! Maybe more peo
Princess Sharon walked out of the palace, far away until and she was able to spot them.She held the tip of her bulky dress and marched towards them, counting her steps carefully and she exhaled deeply when she was finally standing in front of them - her maid, the strange woman and the strange guy."Good evening, princess" the woman greeted immediately and the young boy did same."Is he the one?" Sharon asked, dancing her eyes around the young cute looking boy."Yes, Princess. His name is Matthew" the maid replied."And are you sure he's really good at it? You know what we're up against". Sharon said."He's very good, princess. He was highly recommended. He's a Master at it" replied the maid with so much confidence.Her confidence made Sharon feel a little relieved."Hmm" she took her eyes around
Kaylan smirked as she looked at him from head to toe. Hmph. A young boy huh? Like he can do anything?"Are you still in for this? Female gambler?" One of the men asked grimly and Kaylan scoffed."And why wouldn't I be ready? I'm always ready". She replied confidently and looked at her opponent;"What's the bid?"The boy was already sitting in front of her and raising up his sleeves, he leaned forward on the table."I don't need coins" he muttered. "But soemthing more..."He dipped his hand into his pocket and brought out a glittering gold anklet.Holy Molly!!! A gold anklet!! Kaylan's eyes beamed immediately as she looked at it in disbelief. What the hell is he doing with something like that?? It was so beautiful!"A gold anklet!" One of the watchers exclaimed."Hey boy, what do you think you're
Princess Sharon had a huge smile on her face as she stood at the balcony and awaited the young boy to get to where she was.Her maid was standing behind her, and soon enough, the boy was standing in front of her."Good morning, princess" he greeted with a bow.His elegance gave Sharon some hope ."Good morning" she smiled warmly at him, her eyes searching his hands.Urgh! She needed to see it."How did it go?" She asked impatiently and finally, he gave her what she wanted.He dipped his hand into his pocket and brought out the gold bracelet and Sharon's eyes beamed."You did it" she chuckled and collected it from him.Wow. It was so beautiful. Poor Kaylan.She turned to her maid with her palm stretched out and quickly, she placed the bundle on it and Sharon
