Chapter 234 - My Deranged Family Members (2) (2/2)

”Don't worry Alicia. We will leave this place before that happens.” William said knowing what I was thinking of. ”I won't let him do anything bad to you while we are here, I promise.”

I cried my heart out on William's chest. This will be the only time I will show my weakness. After this I have to be strong and make sure to be able to escape from here.

”Thank you Will.” I said in between sobs.

After this ordeal, I can see him again. I can see my beloved Leon once more.

(Regaleon's POV)

I, Dimitri and his men were having a rest by the side of a flowing stream. We stopped to get our water containers filled and to eat breakfast.

Dimitri's men and our horses were resting under a tree's shade and eating their bread for breakfast while I was by the stream getting my water container filled.

”We are now inside the Jennovian country your majesty.” Dimitri said. ”From here on, it will take another five to six days until we reach the capital of Jennovia where the princess is.”

”Yes, just a few more days and we will be arriving in the capital.” I said. 'And I will be able to see Alicia again.' I thought in my mind and in my heart.

When I was about to stand up I felt a slight tremor inside my heart. It was like a slight pinch that made me uncomfortable. I held my chest thinking of what might have caused this uncomfortable feeling.

”Your majesty!” Dimitri was shocked and worried after seeing me. ”What happened?”

Then somewhere deep within in me, I just knew that Alicia was crying. I can feel her burden weighing in on her.

”Dimitri.” I stood up in haste.

”Y-Yes your majesty?” Dimitri looked at me with curious eyes.

”Tell the men that we will be departing now.” I ordered.

”W-What? You mean right now?” Dimitri was surprised. Not an hour had passed since they stopped to take a rest.

”Yes, now.” I ordered with a more forceful tone.

”O-Of course your majesty. I will tell them right away.” Dimitri ran towards his men to relay my message.

*Whistle*

I whistled and not long Midnight came to me trotting and neighed when he was in front of me. I patted his mane and quickly got on his back.

I looked around and so the Dimitri and his men were now riding their horses and ready to depart sooner than they have expected.

”We are ready to depart your majesty.” Dimitri said.

”Hmm.” I nodded. ”I am sorry to cut or rest short but we need to get to the capital faster than we have planned.” I said. ”I felt something foreboding and would like to hasten our pace.”

Dimitri and his men nodded in understanding.

”Thank you for understanding.” I said and slightly smiled. I was fortunate to have subordinates like them.

”Hiyah!” I clapped Midnight's reigns and we were off towards the capital.
