2022-01-05 08:07:54Aside from the weird looks from everyone, and the fact that a war just ended. Everything was normal. And that meant that Gwen could go home. She had healed well over the couple of days that she was in the hospital room. She had realized that she was in the private room to more of the back of the front building. There were no other patients here and it had Gwen questioning why. It was not like her injury was that serious.
There were people who lost limbs and yet she got an entire room for that. Gwen could not help but feel guilty. But no one said anything about it to her, she didn’t get any looks of disdain or have people question why so she guessed that it could have been a normal thing. But then again, where was this room when Ace, Mr. Top-priority, needed to be treated?
Talking about Ace, she had not seen him since they were in the forest together. It was not like she wanted to and appreciated the time of peace she had. It was a bi

Once again, Gwen was sitting on the couch surrounded. They were not saying anything and were just eyeing her down. As if they would get their questions answered that way. Jonah has this scowl on his face and he studied her, she wished that she could tell what was going on in their minds but she was just lost. It reminded her of the situation back at the camp, everyone looked at her weirdly, kept their distance from her and she even spotted people whispering about her behind her back. They had not figured out that she was from Paria-Drae because there was no way that they could. And the General would not have kept his mouth shut about it and interrogated her until her head fell off. So what was it? There was one thing she was sure for certain, it had something to do with Ace. When she was out of her room one day she caught her name being thrown around in a group of people. Along with Ace’s name. She did not hear exactly what they were say

THIRD ARC Two months have passed since everything went down. When she got home, it took her about ten minutes to be able to open the door. She was incredibly nervous and had wondered what her parent’s reactions would be. It was hard to see their faces and how they morphed through different emotions when they saw her, but in the end, it was all good. Her mother was in shambles for hours and scolded Gwen to no end, but she assured her that everything with her was fine. They made a fuss over her injuries, but they didn’t hurt much and Gwen had to tell them that a few times before they calmed down. And then she had to tell them what happened, of course, she gave them the censored version and made everything lighter than it actually is. She also had to play down her pain, saying that she never felt anything because she was high on adrenaline the entire time. After that, her mother looked at her injuries. It was not the best

“This is a step forward in my plan. The Queen is obviously not going to Estril to make peace, we all know that. And I want to be there to help protect the royal family and to make sure that she does not get what she wants. If I were to get my personal feelings involved then it would ruin the entire thing.” Gwen said.Her mother shook her head. “I just have a bad feeling about this.”“Of course, you have a bad feeling about it, this is the Queen we’re talking about. She is definitely up to something and so that’s why I need to go. I’m just a lowly soldier to her, she won’t pay attention to me.”“Gwen.” her father stood up. “Being anywhere near her is not a good idea. She could see you and have suspicions.”“People look alike, it’s nothing strange. She will see me, and then move on. I’m going to Estril. I&rs

“What the hell is your problem?” Ace grabbed onto her arm.Gwen sighed and turned to face him calmly. “Why would I give you the time of day when you only want to say bad things to me. That’s not very good for my mental health, is it? Would you listen to someone who always insulted you?”“I’m just telling you what you need to hear. You got lucky with the war between us and Paria-Drae, but now this is an operation that could very well put our royalty in danger and I don’t think we need someone who is just going to drag the entire team down. Why did you even come back?” he gripped her arm tiger, his nails digging into her arm slightly.“Your precious General called me here, so of course, I came.”“And did you have to run away from home this time?” he leaned down in her face and Gwen had half the mind to spit on it.

The strange looks from the soldiers never stopped and Gwen had momentarily forgotten about them, but then when she approached the group, they glanced at her sideways, and then quietly shuffled away. No one seemed to want to tell her what the problem was. Maybe if she had remembered she could have asked Gloria or Doctor Reeves, they would have probably told her the truth if they knew.Because the soldiers moved away, Gwen stepped closer to watch what Ace was doing. She would have stepped in and stopped him but she didn’t want to interact with him. His immaturity was amazing and so Gwen decided it would be better if she didn’t.Some of the guards got the memo that they were not going to win and they backed off, causing Ace to run out of victims quickly. When the line stopped coming he looked around confused stretching his shoulder and then laughing.“Is that it? Is that all I get? Wow, no wonder we were cal

It was now Ace’s time to avoid her. Gwen wasn't complaining but she just wanted answers. It was hard to move on from their conversation when she didn’t even get what she wanted. She had tried to communicate with him but he didn’t even bother to give her a second glance. The soldiers and guards who were there obviously witnessed their little thing and it was an awkward couple of seconds walking away. She hoped people would not assume that they had something between each other.The looks did not stop however and so she was still left in the dark about why it was happening. It seemed like Ace had the answer but he would not tell her and she could not get close enough to anyone else to have them tell her.The time for getting acquainted with the castle passed and the day for the arrival of the Paria-Drae royal family came. Gwen was honestly too anxious and barely slept the night before. Wondering what the Queen would look lik

To say something so bluntly and in front of everyone in the room was definitely not Ace’s brightest moment. Gwen knew that everyone was thinking it. The way they looked at her and the Queen during the entire meeting said it all. But she was sure that it would not have been something anyone would say out loud so that the current awkward situation would be avoided.Her fingers drummed against her side and she sent a harsh glare in Ace’s direction. Just because he was mad at her for whatever reason he was, did not mean that he could just drag her down like that. It was plain foul.“I- I do?” she feigned shock. “I guess you could say that since we’re both blond.”The General grumbles at her words. “The resemblance is a bit striking.”One of the higher-up soldiers who were next to the General stepped up. “Are you sure you have no relation to the Queen

“You really should go around saying that I look like Queen Meredith. That won’t be good for any of us. I have no relation to her but people can talk and having the Queen suspect something is the last thing we all need.” Gwen said to him.“Are you sure you’re not her secret child or something? Born from a love affair.” Ace said.Gwen froze for a moment and then turned to him. “What the hell?” her tone was icy. She looked around to make sure that no one was around to hear what he had just said. Gwen grabbed his arm and pulled him to the side. Pulling him down to her level she was so tempted to hit him but she didn’t.“Watch what you say. People from Paria-Drae are really suspicious people and they are serious gossips. You can start something and then bring trouble for me and my family. Do you not have any sense in the head that tells you talking like that is not a g

Time passes and she has not seen many of her friends in a while. She had not even seen Ace and realized how much she missed him. And so, Gwen works overtime and takes a day off so that she can go to Estril. She goes in secret and goes to Fort Brimburg. Because Para-Drae was not a threat anymore, many of the soldiers came back and many joined the army. She was sure that they got an earful from the General for that. Gwen still had her training clothes and so she integrates herself into the base as if she were always there but of course she is a Queen and is made out pretty quickly.She is called out from the morning line up and the General questions why she is there. He also seemed to not care that she was a Queen and treated her the same. Since Ace was usually at the front of the group she could see that he was happy to see her.Gwen tells him that she is there to train and she and the General go back and forth but eventually he lets her stay. Everyone does not really know how to treat

At one point, Ace visits her and Gwen had not forgotten about their last encounter but she tries to ignore it and move on but Ace does not feel that way. She can tell that he acting differently around her and Gwen is not sure how to act. She gives him a tour of the castle but they get lost because Gwen is still not completely familiar with it. Ace takes the chance and tells her how he feels again. This time, he kisses her and she lets him. Gwen knows she feels something too but does not say anything back to him. He says that he is more than happy to wait for her response.The day of the coronation comes and Gwen is definitely not ready for it. This is the biggest thing that is going to happen in her life and she is not sure if she is ready. Her parents are there for her the entire time and help until the ceremony. Gwen invited the leaders of Estril, Naudis, Martaes, and Schneir. She invited all of the people she knew from Naudis, Estril, and Paria-Drae. Gwen had to say that it was the

It had been a couple of months since everything unfolded. Meredith had been in prison ever since and had no chance of getting out in her lifetime. Her mother had made a public appearance a while ago and gave a heartfelt speech about the past twenty years and how it was so drastic from everything she knew but grew to appreciate simpler things because of it. And because of that, Gwen realized that it was her mother's way of telling the people that she was not going to be the Queen. And if that was the case, then it all fell on Gwen.Even though she threatened the Queen and told her that she would take the throne and because people want her to, did not mean that Gwen actually wanted it. She expected her mother to be the Queen the people all loved and wanted. But her mother was getting older and just wanted to live a simple life with the man she loved. She did not want to suddenly be thrust into a life she gave up on for so many years and it would also be unfair to her stepfather.And so,

Gwen is going to make it look like she was the person who kidnapped the Queen and that no one else was involved. If there are other people involved then she would not confess. So she is taken to a run-down building in the middle of nowhere and officers and soldiers are hiding all over the place. Once she wakes up, she and her mother confront the Queen, Gwen acts like she is going to kill her just to make it believable. She gives her mother some time to talk to her and the Queen acts hateful and tells her that she should be dead and that even if they kill her, no one is going to believe them and that the people will not accept her.Elizabeth asks Meredith if she also killed her parents so that she could get the Queen. They should have lived another ten years before the throne could go to her. The Queen does not say anything about that but says that they died because it was their time and it helped her out. Gwen intervenes and says that she had enough time to talk and that she should tr

When it came to important matters that had anything to do with the royal family or money, the royal family would address it themselves. If it was anything else they would have people do it for them. And seeing as it is as big as getting arrested, she would definitely make a public appearance. And Gwen would use that.With Mr. Rickeys in Naudis, it was just her and Ace. They were their own support and even had weapons from the base as extra protection.“What exactly are you planning to do? Storm the castle and catch the Queen by surprise and blow off her head? Ace asked her one day when they were just waiting around for something. Anything to happen. “The number of times I have imagined doing that would surprise you. But no, I don’t think that would work. To be honest, I’m not sure what will, but I’m using this time to think up a plan.”“You should not have gone to the Queen in the first place.”Gwen gave him a pointed look. “You think I don’t know that. It was dumb and deep down I kn

There was nothing more nerve-wracking than standing at the side of the road, waiting to see any sigs of her parents. They could have walked past them, or they could have gotten caught. But the General took them to the closest place that he expected Ace to exit from. But once she saw them coming out of the forest a little way down the road from them, her heart finally started to beat again. And without a moment’s delay, they were taken to the military base. “Since we know that the Queen is a potential threat to the lives of your parents. I will have half of the men from the castle come here to protect them. Fort Brimberg does not have as many people as it used to and so we’ll need to stretch our resources thin for now.” the General told her. “Thank you,” Gwen looked back at her parents who were talking with the Captain. Ace was s

Once Gwen was in Estril, she went straight to the castle. She was sure that since she was gone for so long, it was definitely making people worry. And since the Captain knew that it was only Gwen that was going, he would wonder if Ace went with her. Since it was a huge possibility that he was with her, she hoped that they knew that he was fine.Quickly, she greeted the guards at the front of the castle and when they let her through, she basically flew towards the castle. She received a lot of weird looks but that was the least of her concerns. She needed to find the Captain, the General, anyone.Almost crashing into some soldiers as she raced around a corner she held one of them demanding to know where the Captain was.“The last I saw he was by the throne r

If the Queen found out information about Gwen then they would think that she lived in Naudis, which meant that Mr. Rickeys’ children were in danger, so she would have to go warn him first to get to them.After she ran off, Puckett followed her without asking any questions or making any comments. In a serious situation, Puckett was not useless and could be helpful when it counted so she didn’t disagree with him following her. This was bigger than both of their problems so Gwen pushed any anger for him out of the way, focusing on what was really important.They got to Paria-Drae in record time and even faster than how they were the day before. Gwen was not sure how fast the Queen could move but she definitely did not escape the castle to walk on foot anywhere. Which meant that she had a headstart.Once they were back in Paria-Drae, Gwen sent Ace to go check on her parents while she went to find Mr. Ric
The Perfect Traitor Chapter 83
Gwen was then forced to explain everything that happened in detail to her parents. She'd never felt so small in her life. The look the both of them were giving her while she told the story made her regret telling them. She should have just told Mr. Rickeys, made him keep an eye on them, and then ran back to Estril where she would have been safe.And what made the experience even worse was that Ace was right behind her. He was just standing in the corner looking out of place as he watched Gwen get scolded by her parents. He had even tried to speak up for her but she shut that down quickly."I told you not to speak. Shut it or go back outside." she turned swiftly, snapping at him.Puckett closed his mouth and looked away."Wait, what exactly is your relationship with this young man?" her father asked."He's a parasite," Gwen said dismissively. "Now, if we're
