All Chapters of Three Flames: They Were Happy: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Elona woke up early even though her body protested with her. She had to see Xachary so sleeping was the last thing on her mind. She stumbled as she walked down the path that led her to the river. She was stopped from reaching the river by a young woman named Elethu. She had a bucket of water with her. "Elo?" She was surprised to see Elona up so early even after her night shift. " Shouldn't you be sleeping?" "Ele I will go to sleep once I'm done with my errands." Elona told her politely before she tried to walk past Elethu who quickly grabbed Elona's wrist. "Ele?" Elona was not amused but she would give Elethu some credit. Usually the girl didn't bother her much. Just said hello way too many times. Which Elona often just ignored. "Elo", Elethu whispered the name out like something sweet she had just tasted. "I heard you and your fiance broke your alliance." "He married my sister. No alliance was broken." Elona eyed Elethu's hand on her wrist. "My dear please fre

Chapter One: Dear Book Edward wasn't in any mood to do anything but sleep on his bed. The headache built from the hangover he was experiencing right now was killing him ever so slowly. He cussed out to no one in particular just frustrated by his inability to just say no to the bottle. "Focus!" Michael's loud voice came into the scene. Reminding Edward of what he was doing at this very second. Just as his drinking last night he was regretting this as well. He was now in a train fight with the king of the kingdom. How great. He didn't even know how he still kept his balance after dodging all of Michael's attacks. He didn't throw one punch or kick Michael's way because he didn't believe that it was possible. Not with his present state he didn't. After a torturous running around with Michael chasing behind him with a whole lot of energy and stamina Edward went into a stand still when he almost collided with a white horse. The rider thankfully stopped right on time. Edward

Chapter Three: How Cruel Then "Where are you taking me?" Nicolas asked the question because of Edward herding him deeper into the palace. He thought he would have drawn him into the servant courters than actually getting him into what he could see was the more private part of the palace. "My room" Edward called out to the two maids that were in front of the both of them. "Go call doctor Winker quickly. Tell him it's a snake bite." The maids bowed to him but didn't move. As if rooted in their positions. An outraged Edward yelled at them for this. "I said go call the doctor!" "So sorry but we can't duke" Nicolas felt lightheaded. The snake bite wasn't just painful but it made him sick to the stomach. The last time he learnt about the snake it was said that it only had a sharp bite he didn't know that it also made one feel as if the world was going round and round. Had it not been for Edward's support now he would have fallen over a long time ago. "What are you talking about

Chapter Five: Queen Mother Arthur closed his eyes with his head comfortably on Michael's lap. He opened his mouth to tell him about the craziness he just got out from. "What is all this fighting about the Nina family 's only daughter?" Michael didn't know what he was talking about so he needed to elaborate. "It seems Edward's hide and seek game with the marriage plans have finally been put to an end." He smiled thinking of something. "I won't be surprised to know that this whole drama is just a way to make him finally marry the girl. He has been at this for years." Michael still made no reaction to the matter. Making Arthur to open his eyes now. "Husband and co-ruler of our kingdom what is wrong? Tell me" Michael brushed at Michael's head on his lap. "Edward and that Nicolas." "What of them?" "I don't feel like they are fighting for Rose's hand. The fight they are displaying to me is something else." Arthur was the confused one now. "What could that be?" "Don't tell m

Chapter Seven: I'm Hurt Rose could see that there was no life whatsoever in Nicolas' eyes. He was looking at her but she could see that he wasn't really paying attention to anything but his thoughts. Which was very understandable. She didn't expect him any other way in fact. The man had just received the worst kind of news. He had seen something that no son and no child should have seen. His parents died in a way that wasn't at all saliva swallowing. What happened to them was just horrible. She also could understand why she was the first person he decided to go to just after seeing everything. She wasn't there herself but from the gossips it was said to be a very horrific scene. That both his parents were brutally murdered outside the queen mother's house. They both were in a pool of their own blood. The images put into her mind were just enough to give her shivers and she was sure she would get nightmares as well but what would the man whose parents those were feel? Wha
