All Chapters of A Touch of a Flaming Heart: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

"Wow!" Ignis and Sassy exclaimed in unison as we all stared at the main gate of the Glaciers Palace.The crystal blue gate was carved with intricate flowing water all over it making it looked like a live waterfall."I thought the Flamis Palace is already the finest place here but this place took my expectations to another level!" Sassy remarked while we were walking towards the closed gate."Wait here." Cool said and went ahead towards the guardia of the gate and talk to him.I saw the guardia's eyes went wide when his gaze fell on our direction, to be precise, in my direction.He immediately ran to open the gate for us.Cool went back to us and told us that we can go in now.When we finally step on the Glaciers Palace, the guards immediately kneeled on the floor and in unison greeted me."Welcome Home, Princess Fhyra!" My eyes almost popped out of its socket when the other passersby saw and heard what the guardias did and also kneeled on the floor and greeted me as well."It's okay. I

"Kick harder!" Cool instructed as I kicked the thick punching bag hanging in front of me."Higher!" He said with a loud voice followed with a few training claps.I kicked the punching bag one last time with the last energy left with me.Cool clapped his hands as it flew meters away from where I stood up."Very good!" He said and lend me a bottle of water.I took the bottle from his hand and drank from it before resigning myself on the ground, panting.'You're a monster!' I yelled on his mind but I just earned a chuckle from that."You're getting better." He complimented as he sat on the ground beside me.I lazily turned my head towards him."I have a Commandant for a teacher. What do you expect?" I said followed with a groan when I felt my legs sore from too much kicking.It's been weeks since we arrived here in Glaciers. And all I can say is I like this place better.The Fantasians here are a lot more warmer and kind than those from the Flamis.The irony of life, those with the warmes

"Commandant! Commandant!" I groaned and repeatedly tap Cool's chest to wake him up as well to open his door.Someone was consistently knocking and calling him outside his door.'Cool,' I called out in his mind in order to wake him up.I heard him groaned too when the knocking intensified.He took his arm away from my body who was half-lying down on his and let me lay down on the bed instead.He frustratingly brushed up his hair using his fingers."Sleep a little more," He said and gave me a chaste kiss on my forehead before proceeding to his bathroom.My eyes remained half-open as the noises outside his door gets more disturbing.It didn't take him long to go out of his bathroom and walked towards the door to open it while I rolled back on his sheets and tried to sleep again.I heard him opened the door and I felt the presence of four other men went inside the room."Commandant! The Princess is missing!" My eyes immediately flew open.Who's missing?"What?" Cool's confused voice was he

Screams and shrieks are heard everywhere. Explosions and dark smokes can be seen at every corner of the palace.This is what I welcomed me when I opened the room of my door.Chaos.I suddenly saw Granny running towards my direction. She looks so problematic and worried at the same time."Fhyra! Hija! What are you doing here?! Where's Cool?!" She said while looking around vigilantly."What's happening?" I asked worriedly as I look at the once bright walls of Glaciers but was now filled with dark smoke."The Darkess attacked us. The guardias are delaying them while we evacuate the citizens." She answered and worriedly walked passed me to approach the lady she saw."Bugnaw! Hurry!" She said as she helped the lady.'Fhyra! Where the hell are you?!' I was suddenly alerted when I heard Cool's voice.'I'm outside my room. I'm with Granny. How 'bout you? Are you okay? How about Sassy? Ignis? And Hailec? Are you with them?' I asked him hurriedly while helping Granny guide the other fantasians t

"Please take care." Granny said for the nth time as she was sending us off."We will, Granny.""Please, return safe and sound." She said worriedly to everyone.Everyone nodded and gave their farewell bows and hugs to Granny and their families.We would be going out of the palace today. We made sure first that the defense of this place was strong enough to keep everyone safe before we decided to go.Granny faced Cool after exchanging goodbyes with the others."I know you would do this even without me asking but please. Please take care of my granddaughter and come back safely." She said as she sweeps off some hair strands away from Cool's face.I smiled with how intimate Granny and Cool is. I heard Granny was the one who raised him, that explains their familiarity and intimacy."Go on. We won't be delaying you anymore. Please keep safe and get back with our people safe and sound." Granny said as she waved her last goodbye.We turned our backs from the people and face the gigantic ice ga
