2022-01-28 08:46:42It was a tempting offer, but Ace did not take it. She made sure to show how upset she was by trying to punch him but he stopped her fist. Gwen was pissed off and beyond frustrated, she wasn't getting anywhere and it was really starting to get to her. She was desperate. Ace was kneeling in front of her, blocking any way she could to get out. Her back was against the wall and the book was mostly in his clutched with Gwen’s hand pathetically on it, attempting to pull it back.
Ace just looked at her amused. “I think you should just give up. If you don’t tell me what’s going on then I won’t give you the book. So either tell me or go back to not having it. But there is no chance that you are going to get this. And as I said earlier, I was in the army for all my life, you already knew that, so you should know that I am far stronger than you.”
If Gwen was not so cramped in then she would have kicked Ace where the sun didn’t shine. He could have

The next morning was a little hard for Gwen to understand. She was the one who put herself in that position, but she was too tired to think it through. And now, she was in the same bed with Ace, both of them practically wrapped around the other completely covered by the blanket and somehow sharing the same pillow. It was a mystery how they ended up like that. She had fallen asleep next to him and now her legs were tangled with his and her head was resting in the crook of his neck. It was comfortable. It was warm. When Gwen woke up, she was shocked at first, but because she was still tired and because she was in such a nice position, she found that she was not in a rush to get out. Ace was sound asleep beside her and Gwen was sure that he would fling her off the bed when he woke up to them being like that. The sun was now coming up and as Gwen lifted her head to look outside the window a gush of cold wind blew in the room and she automati

After ten minutes of jogging, Gwen gave up and decided to walk instead. She could still Ace in the distance but he was the only one, all the others had left you, and for good reason, you did deserve it. She would make sure that she was last by far. She hated to admit that she enjoyed the walk. It was a nice change of pace from seeing the people from Paria-Drae every day. It was also good to take a stroll in the forest after she had such a stressful night. But all of her thoughts floated back to this morning. Her stomach flipped when she thought back to her being in Ace’s embrace. He was warm and not too hard, despite all that muscle he claimed to have. She especially liked how warm his neck was, and that he had his arm wrapped around h- No no. Not the thoughts she should be having. Gwen was nowhere near touch starved so she should not be acting like this. She would say that she has gotten too much affection. She was not the biggest hugge

Gwen walked with the Prince. She was a few steps behind him. The silence was loud and she could feel her heartbeat and hear her blood flowing in her ears. She had never thought that she would have to interact with him at any time. He was gentle, graceful, and delicate. But she was sure that he had a strong will and would be a good leader in the future for Estril.But what was he doing by himself? There should be castle guards around him at all times. Were they that irresponsible or had he slipped away? And where was he going? Last she checked he was with the Queen’s children. Maybe he was heading off to study or something. That was what all royalty did for most of the day.Price Landon slowed his steps and Gwen slowed down as well, looking around to see if he had reached his destination. But he turned around and looked at her. The actions made her tense up immediately.“What is your name, soldier?” he ask

She was sure that by the time she was taken to the medical room, she had fallen asleep. She did not remember much after getting into the room. It worked well for her because she actually would have not been conscious which was the point of her entire skit. She wanted to get a good look at all the guards around her so that she knew who the one following her was, but she knew their voice and that was enough for her. Gwen could easily link the voice to the face once she woke up. But after the revelation of what the Prince could have possibly known and thought about her, she was actually feeling sick and her entire day was spent with her being cautious that maybe he would appear out of nowhere and declare her guilty for something. And who would believe her over him? It was dark when Gwen finally woke up. Her mouth felt dry and she was sure her breath was rancid from the bile that probably rested in it. She could even taste it a bit when she

Ace was in love with Gwen. And everyone knew. Except for Gwen. It was since the war. It was obvious that he had feelings for her from the early days and he was aware that his heart beat a little faster when she was around but he only realized that it turned from like to live when he saved her after the explosion. The way his body moved without even thinking when he went to save her and how panicked he was when she was unresponsive to him, all but solidified his feelings. And when she had finally answered him, the relief he felt was enough to make him collapse. He had to keep himself from hugging her at that moment. She had looked confused and was in pain but throughout the whole thing, he just kept thinking that the way the fire was cast on her face made her look ethereal. They were in the middle of the war, with gunshots everywhere around them. He had let his guard down and he could have gotten them both killed because of it. He knew th

Flashback - Chapter 51.5When the fighting broke out by the river, Ace had time to continue thinking about why Gwen was ignoring him. He didn’t do anything recently to upset her. At least to his knowledge. But this time, she seemed to be extra angry with him. She would not even give him the time of day and it really pissed him off that she would not tell him what her problem was.Things escalated quickly and there was no second for him to stop. They were obviously outnumbered and if he turned his back for a second he could be killed, which is why he was not aware of when Gwen disappeared from the scene.A lot of the soldiers from Paria-Drae, after realizing that things were turning out bad, started scrambling to get as much gold as they could to try and take it away with them. In the midst of the battle, they ducked their heads and grabbed as many of the containers as they could. But Ace and the othe

Con’t Flashback - Chapter 51.5Captain Marcus shook his head a bit before approaching Ace. “Let me take Gwen. You’ve been out for too long, go and rest.”But before he could touch Gwen, Ace pulled back. “Do not touch her. She needs to be treated immediately.”With that, he pushed through the crowd and went to find someone to treat Gwen. He would not be able to sleep until he knew that she was being treated. Walking into the front building reminded him of when Gwen had treated him in Doctor Reeves’ room. She had called his face pretty and he wanted nothing more than to get more compliments out of her, but he knew that he was pushing his luck with her.Once he was in the building, he went searching for a place to out Gwen, but all the rooms had people in them. Doctor Reeves was busy trying to resuscitate someone in his office and there was another person there wai

Gwen looked at Ace curiously. What did he need to tell her? She also looked at the bruise that was next to his nose. It was dark red and she winced a bit when she saw it. She guessed she had thrown the shoe a lot harder than she had thought.“What?” her tone carried uncertainty. Gwen never saw a look like that on Ace’s face before. His eyes were wide and his hands on her arms shook a bit. He looked a bit nervous if that was what she was guessing. But there was nothing she could imagine he would have to tell her that would make him nervous.“I- uh, I wanted to tell you something.” he swallowed.“I know, what do you want to tell me?” She gently pulled himself away from his grip. “Unless it’s an apology for what you called me this morning, in front of other people. Then I don’t want to hear anything else.”Ace cursed under his breath. “I was also going to apologize for that, but th

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.

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.

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

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
