Hayle.“Get off the road, scallywag!.” A merchant yelled as he passed by, rolling his wheel forward with a cart containing carrots, onions, and pretty much any other white substance.“Woah, the people really are rude.” I complained, my eyes roaming around the environment. I really could not get the deal they all had or what it was they were aiming for, but it probably has to do with them not recognising us.I bet the very moment we had our cloaks pulled off from our heads, they would recognise us instantly and fall at our feet.“That man, don't bother. I've known him for years, and yes, he has one too many switches of mood; don't be bothered by him." Ethan assured me that as we walked deeper into the grounds, I beamed with smiles, my eyes glancing all around me; everything was pretty much a beauty.“Why don't they stay on the family grounds?.”I asked Ethan, who smiled at me briefly. He pulled at my arm, and I tumbled against his body, with a bright smile on his face, as another merch

Alex.I watched as he continued to cough, clutching hard to his chest before resting against his sides.“We need to tell someone—anyone at all. I can get you a trusted doctor, father; you need help.” I explained, worried in my tone, but it didn't seem to work as all my pleas fell on deaf ears.“It's okay, Alex's what's with the ruckus caused around; I just need to have a peaceful death; there is no way I'm setting around getting needles poked in and out of me; it's all not going to work in the way I needed it; I'll be fine.” He responded, but they only got on my nerves.“Who is talking about death here? Who says you are dying? You aren't that old yet; if you would not call a doctor or tell anyone, then I'm sorry, but I can't watch you keep dying.” I retorted and stood up from my chair.Although the family healer was still missing, I was way more than determined to find a solution to the issue on the ground.“I'm sorry, son. This is a whole new burden on you, but there is no reason to

Ethan.Soft, gentle knocks were placed on her door repeatedly. I got no response on the first few knocks, and later on, I panicked a bit and pushed the door, but it had been bolted from inside, which meant she was still in.“Hayle, it's me!.” I spoke up. I heard footsteps approaching the door while she pushed it open, revealing her fluffy eyes and black circles beneath them. Her face seemed rough, as did her hair. She looked a little sleepy, almost like I had woken her from her sleep.“Why did it take you so long to get to the door? Besides, why are you looking like this?” I asked, breaking off but having the end slurred out long enough that she understood what it was that I had meant.“I'm so sorry, but I don't feel too well; you seem a little... Confused, if I might say, besides, what's the deal with you? I'm not making complaints, but I'm sure Alex doesn't want to see you around me, and if he doesn't get what he wants, he makes everyone else into the bad guy.,” she retorted, and a

Hayley’s POV.“That's impossible! It makes no sense!.” I yelled at the top of my lungs, my eyes cast upon that of Ethan. He sighed and tapped me gently against my shoulders.“I'm sorry, Hayley, but there is the truth to it. You may ask Bruno if you think I'll tell lies, but you know better than that.” My eyes loved the jumper; she wasn't saying anything; her face was void of emotion, and it bothered me a lot.Why would Alex do such a thing? Threatening the innocent boy's life for no reason? Why?....“Juliet, I'm so sorry. If Bruno may have lied to Ethan, we need to confirm this before acting out.” I responded, trying to persuade Juliet, who still said nothing. She sighed, and I glanced over to Ethan, desperately in need of help, but he shook me slightly away. Not saying a single thing I support.“I'll leave you girls to be now; I'm sure you'll handle it. Juliet, I am so sorry this happened, but I'm sure you need your privacy now. Hayley, let her be; she will talk to you when she feel

Hayle.I curled up my knees slowly,glancing out the window filled with emptiness. I missed home.It had been months since I left, but I always believed I could actually have a fresh start here, cut down all loose ties, and give myself the happiness that I was determined for, but nothing came forth; it was all the same, back here and there at home.I missed Juliet; she was always hovering around me, but her absence today... I felt it, yet I couldn't get why everything seemed so silent and stiff; everyone looked dull, and no one was running around like before.My maid made her way in with a tray on her hands, swerving my dinner.“Can I talk to you for a moment?” I asked, and she gave her gaze back to me. A little uneasy, I left, but there wasn't much that was required for me to do either way.“Yes , how may I help you, your highness?” She asked, and I could tell from the look on her face that something was wrong. Pearl was usually lovely, so what had changed this time? Why wasn't she
