Bab 33: Not deserving

"He is pretty nice and well-mannered," Julia said then Alre smiled and looked at her and she laughed.

"I don't care what he is, I am what I am you got a problem?" he asked.

"Read my mind maybe then you will be able to know" she responded and he smiled.

"Welcome to my humble home," the prince said as they walked into the castle.

It had brown interior with a little shimmer to it as the light reflected on it, there was a chandelier in the middle with old paintings on the walls.

"Your home is nice," Julia said.

'Thank you, Julia, my mom, and dad will be down in a few they are in a meeting, apparently we have had some trouble on our hands for the past few days, they are handling it" he replied.

'I don't know as yet, to be honest, the villagers are talking about a black smoke, how the hell am I supposed to find a black smoke?" he asked.

"That's weird indeed I never heard of sush a thing," Julia said.

"We should not get involved in this is that clear Julia?" Alre asked.

"Don't worry we won't" she responded with a sigh.

"Yeah it's hard to believe you have a habit to get into trouble," he said and she raised her right brow then sighed.

"I will not give you problems" she replied and he sighed.

"Women," he said then walked forward.

'What about women huh?" she asked and he looked at her sternly.

"I am so not starting a fight with you, it's like you were born to be my enemy or something" he responded and she laughed.

"A sweet girl like here born to be your enemy, no way," the prince said and Alre sighed.

'Of course, you will take her side too" Alre said.

'I am just saying something, I am not taking anyone's side" he replied as they entered the living room and the princes along with the girl sat down.

'So where and how come you came with this guy on a trip?" the prince asked and she looked at Alre then he sighed.

'I am sure he brought others on his trips too" she responded.

"Not a girl like you," the prince said and Julia looked at Alre then he smiled.

"I brought her for certain reasons and she is my maid too," Alre said.

'You brought her because she is your maid... man, move from this guy... I would happily make a girl like her my girlfriend" the prince said and Alre raised his right brow.

'I am fine right here thanks" she replied and Alre laughed.

'She won't go anywhere even if she wants to" Alre said.

"She is better than a maid and it is pretty obvious that you do not deserve her," he said and Alre scoffed.

"We are not having this conversation" Alre replied.

"Oh yes we are, Julia he is not worth it if he can's see how much more than a maid you are," he said and Julia sighed.

"I am still right here you two, it would be nice to get my opinion since I am the one you guys are talking about," she said.

'I am sorry, I can be a flirt at times but I am not flirting" he replied and she smiled.

'It's fine there is some truth to what you are saying but I won't leave not yet at least" she said.

"But there is still a chance you will?" he asked.

'Yes there is" she responded.

'That settles it even she knows how you can be" he said and Alre looked at both of them sternly.

"Are you my friend or hers?" Alre asked and the prince laughed.

"Relax, your rooms are ready, if you guys want can get some rest and it will be night soon I suggest not to rome around too much due to the mysterious black smoke" he responded.

"Yeah, I will see if I can help with that" Alre said and the prince smiled.

"I am glad that you guys are here and please don't mind if it gets noisy because of the kids" he replied.

"It's okay, kids are nice even though they get really noisy," Julia said and he laughed.

"That is true," the prince said as Alre stared at Julia being all friendly.

"Ethan, is there anything else you can tell me about the smoke?" Alre asked.

"Not much except, oh it does like to come out in the night apparently it loves the dark" he responded.

"I see," Alre said and Julia sighed.

"I have never heard of such a thing before," she said.

"It's outrageous I know but it can be true the people are not lying that I do know" Ethan replied.

'They won't lie about such a thing, this sounds serious" Alre said.

"Did it hurt anyone?" she asked and they looked at her.

"No, not from what I have been hearing, according to the people it seems as if it is hunting for something in specific" Ethan responded.

'I will help with this Julia, I want you to stay as far away from this as possible" Alre said.

'Why can't I help?" she asked and he sighed.

"I am so not arguing with you on this" he responded.

"Is it because I am a woman?" she asked as he got up and she smiled.

"Yes is it because of that Alre?" Ethan asked.

"You don't encourage her man.." he responded.

"I am sorry but sweetheart maybe he is right and I am sure it is not because you are a woman... it's just because it's dangerous" Ethan said.

'I know he is not like others who would differentiate but I find it nice to pull his legs a little" she replied and Alre scoffed.

"Thanks for worrying about my well-being, but I can handle myself just like I can handle a sword," she said and he smiled wickedly as Ethan stared at the girl smiling.
