"I understand all this and I can explain this to her too but how in the world can I tell that...the one who is the reason of her nightmares...the one who cursed her is no other than Lady Carot...her friend...How can I do that!!" Alan said with frustration as he banged his hands on the wooden table.
.
"Leave her even I can't believe it....as to why would Lady Carot for whom Lady Winter always stood up and raised her voice....why would she do something so inhuman to her! There must be soemthing wrong with the investigation....." Alan not able to digest the truth said as he stood form his seat while Brazen grabbed onot his shoulders.
.
"Alan, we know this is hard to think but...deep down you also know that there has always been soemthing wrong with Lady Carot, and every time it was Lady Winter who was harmed! It was always before your eyes but all of you have always been ignoring it since the beginning." Brazen said as he shook Alan who looked quite drained and troubled as the truth was stucked at his throat and making him unable to breath.
.
"Prince Brazen please clam down, it human nature to ignore things before them and we cannot blame Prince Alan for this reaction after all more than anything he is worried about Bedisa and her trust on her Lady Carot..." His Holiness said as he kept his hands on Brazen shoulders while Brazen let go of Alan who with a thump sat down on his seat with his head looking at the ground.
.
"....I agree that I have my doubts on her ever since the beginning but I was never able to day it loud...because of the promise I made with Lady Winter....but I don't understand as to how can someone form a normal noble family have sources with the forbidden magic? Not to mention Lady Carot was under treatment for the last 3 years, so how?" Alan asked as he covered his eyes while both His Holiness and Brazen looked at each other.
.
"That is soemthing unknown to us too, we tried to search for connections but we didn't find anything from Viscount Carot side, expect for the fact that 3 years ago he visited the southern kingdom was because he wanted to remarry but for some reason it couldn't happen and he returned back." Prince Brazen said as he kept his hands on his hips.
.
"And what about her mother? Did you not find anything form her side too?" Alan asked while looking at His Holiness who just shook his head.
.
"Weridly enough expect for the fact that she was a commoner with no family line nothing else was found not even her name. The Carot family in fear of stain in there family name they made Lady Carot's mother fully disappear as if when was never there." Prince Brazen said as he looked at Alan who looked even more troubled after hearing about both the sides.
.
"....Prince Alan I know what you are thinking, she has always lived her life in doom but that was already written for her but no matter how hears her life was she still doesn't has the right to make someone else life miserable." His Holiness noticing the change of emotion in Alan face said as he stood form his seat and walked towards the window.
.
"And I am not saying this to just Prince Alan but you too---Sir Ethan quit hiding behind those branches and come out!" He said and within a split second Ethan stood before them with a dark expression in his face.
.
"Ethan?"
"What are you doing here?" Alan and Brazen asked all together as they both were worried about his thoughts which were filled with the gratitude given by Lady Carot.
.
"Your Highnesses...Your Holiness, I Apogolise for listing to your talking with permission but...still can you let me know if all.the things you said are true or not?" Ethan for the first time asked with an impatient looks on his eyes.
.
"Sir Ethan, believing us is on yourself we won't force you but still the truht to be told, yes what ever you heard is 100% true." His holiness said as Ethan head suddenly went blank with his hands started to feel cold and the face of Violet under the moonlight which he saw just a few days ago came in front of his eyes.
.
"(Violet...using the forbidden magic to curse Lady witner just to make her and The Pricnr apart....jwo can she do soemhting like this....this is unbelievable....and Lady witner is her childhood friend...she can't do this..)" Ethan mind where full of debats and reasoning of how can Violet who wanted to protect him do soemthing so cruel to her own friend.
.
"Ethan, are you listening to us?" Brazen asked as he looked at Ethan who was clenching his sword handle tightly.
"Yes I am." He replied them with his usual tone, clear and short.
.
"Then do you believe us or do you want to protect her?" Alan asked while looking at him straight.
Ethan on the other hand had a lot on his mind and to chose one between them was worsen then chossing between death and immortality.
.
One side was the one for whom he sworn to dedicate his whole life, the Prince. On the other side he had the little girl who sworn to protect him in return of him saving her life about which he himself has no idea about.
.
"Ethan we don't have the whole day so just chosse one right now." Alan said again as he touched walked towards them while Ethan took some of his steps backwards.
.
"Your Highness, I have sworn to protect you and fight alongside you always, I am your guardian knight...and I must always choice you but aren't all of you here to protect Lady Witner who is fully unaware of the life threat she is facing." Ethan asked as he faced Alan who had a eyebrows frowned by his words.
.
"What are you trying to imply to? Say it cleanly." Alan asked as he stopped in his tracks and the room was filled with the stone divine power leaking through Alan's body making it hard for Ethan to breath.
.
"Your Highness, what I mean is please forgive me! Because this time I wish to protect the one who protected me, even if it Costs me my life or my status I would take the chance." Ethan said with a confident look on his face.
.
"Ethan! You really want to protect and stand beside her even after knowing what she had put Lady witner through!" Brazen said not believing his ears and of course he was angry or more like disappointed at Ethan.
.
"Prince Brazen! I am not ignoring what happened to her but....I think it's you who is Igor ignoring what's she has gone through." Ethan for the first time raised his voice against the Princes said as he kneeled at the ground. Leaving a fully shocked Brazen there with no words left to say.
.
"Your Highness, Lady Carot has grown up in a difficult environment and it is known to ebruone as how much both the ladies care about each other. I am sure there must be some reason behind this! Please let me talk it out with Lady carot! As your knight please grant me your permission." Ethan said as he bowed at Alan who stood there with a cold face and thousands of emotions inside.
.
"Ethan, I can grant you the permission but before that tell me...what will you do if Lady Carpt is really the one behind all this and...sje has no thoughts of coming back? What will you do.if she rejects you? Would you still be able to stand beside her and protect her even after she is found guilty! Tell me would you be able to do it!" Alan asked in a serious tone as he looked at Ethan who himself had no idea as to how should he answer such questions.
.
"...You can't answer me...can you...?" Alan said as he turned around.
"Your Highness...I..."
"Ethan you are free to do what you want to...its you life and the door for you to reutn are always open..." Alan said calmly as Ethan eyes looked at Alan's back.
.
"Thank you...Thank you a lot, yout Highness." Ethan said as he stood up and jumped off the window and disappeared in thin air.
.
"Alan! Why did you let him go and protect her? Are you having asoft spot for her too--" Brazen said as he held him by his collar but soon his grip loosened as just a glare form Alan made him loose all his rage.
.
"Please don't fight in between, I ma sure the Prince had his own reasons." His Holiness said trying his best to maintain peace in between the hot blooded youths.
.
"Reason? Then I would be very happy to hear it!" Brazen who was still not done with him said as he looked at Alan.
"Brazen, the only reason I let him go was because everyone of us has the right to protect our dear ones...and it also implies on Ethan and Lady Carot." Alan answered to him without breaking their eye contact.....
