She moved forward as Barbara finished, and left a kiss on her blushed pink face. She sensed the heat that was flaring out of her. Barbara loved him back.

Elizabeth snatched a sweet from the dish and instantly rushed to the door, her skirt flying after her, masking her face with that pestering grin again.

"Gods! Elizabeth, please learn some ethics, or Ryan's curse will grasp your neck and you will be eaten by a wolf!"

Lisa nagged at her again.

Barbara continued the company of her lady until the door had closed behind them.

A mild but cold breeze tickled Luna's nose. Elizabeth put the hood on Luna's head, holding her arms tightly.

"I barely could hold myself about what the Princess desired."

Elizabeth breathed out the words that were locked up in her belly.

"To be honest I did feel the same, but be careful! We should not interfere with this until it runs necessary. We might trouble him more."

Luna warned Elizabeth to wash away any plan that might have come to her head. They weren't kids anymore. It was not the cursed crow case that turned out a mess and they earned no answer for that.

"What if they harm him if he refused?"

"We should not let him refuse. Even Lisa accepted this and left the matter to him. If it was for power I would fight for uncle but we are talking about an old, not buried love."

Luna remarked. Elizabeth had forgotten the law of the court, the sisters still were on the point for being sent as Mistress. Luna might have been safe by now because of her eyes condition but Elizabeth wasn't. The princess could target her sister and avenge uncle Miguel. The courtiers were not the people that they could stand in front of them and shot out every insult they wanted, they responded to everything they disliked with graves.

Luna took hold of Elizabeth's hand, "everything might happen in this case but we must stay together, Elizabeth." She wanted to append the past when those merchants' eyes were wandering on them.

"Who would like my language!"

Elizabeth jested, but it couldn't make Luna smile.

The mud crushed under their boots, they reached the livery stable. Charles was fixing the wheels of the cart that brought back uncle Miguel last night.

"How are you doing, our amazing Charles?"

The old man snorted, Elizabeth did not mean to pester him but he always found the young Lady being so mean. He tightened the thumbscrew.

"Milady! I am doing fine but what are you doing in this cold?"

He gazed at Luna. Elizabeth sneered, Charles always preferred Luna because she used to be quiet not being as noisy as Ell.

"Well, uncle finally came to an agreement to let us attend this year's Snow feast. He told us to talk to you. Do you have time to prepare them for tomorrow night?"

Elizabeth directed to the carts.

"Yes, I am already done! But are you sure about going there? Lady Elenore always goes there with her husband."

The man was still so straight when it came to Elenore. Luna and Ell heard that she was remarried but not to another rich guy, of course, to her lover! Dorian Black.

"Who cares about her! We are going to have some fun on my birthday if you care at all."

Elizabeth shrugged, walking to the geese den. They were making noises none-stop.

"There might be a squall," Luna mentioned, her head moved to the sky as a huge gang of moving shadows flattered and croaked.

"Yes, my darling! They brought us the news of a rough cold. This is why I suggest you do stay at home."

Charles followed her gaze.

Luna smiled and rolled her head back to him, "I want to come back to vitality, it is time to leave the house before I spoil my nerves."

Charles couldn't understand what his lady meant, to him home was the best place he ever had found.

"I will prepare you what is needed."

Charles noted, if the weather was stormy then the plan would be canceled not an overture deal to disturb himself and them.

"Charles, did you see Ryan?" Luna asked.

"Yes, he was near the Frozen river."

He answered, putting a wrench on the box of tools.

"He must come back before those clouds bring us trouble."

He added while entering the stable, "go inside Ladies. You shouldn't have a cold if you want to go to the feast," lowering his tone continued, "if there was one!"

It made Luna and Elizabeth laugh.

"Come on! Let's go to the Riverside."

Luna wished, turning on her heels. Elizabeth clasped her arm.

"Why? Let him be alone. He no longer does care about us, why we do so?"

Elizabeth growled but Luna couldn't be apathetic toward him who recently suffered too much suddenly. He had esoteric emotions and they had pushed him to this way. He was annoyed by something.

"He feels guilty because of me! That day he was supposed to come after me but he delayed for being drunk a night before. He thinks that the occurrence had happened to me because of his neglect."

Luna finally revealed this. She never talked about that night and what had happened. She told everyone that she had forgotten what exactly had occurred but it was a lie because she could remember every single second that passed with terror and turmoil.

"Why didn't you tell me? I thought you had lost the memory of that day."

Luna let the cat out of the bag. They walked to the Frozen River Road. The dead dry leaves cried and cracked under their feet.

"I remember vaguely." She declared but her tune was low.

Elizabeth knew that expression, Luna was lying to her and soon she would find out why!

"Why don't you tell him that you love him? He might have been thinking that you hate him."

Elizabeth asked.

Luna blushed, it was out of manner that a girl would confess to a man. She disliked that and it was unlike the confession she ever dreamed of having.

"He doesn't love me! If he did he would not bed those girls."

It was hard for her to see him beside others but this time was different, he needed his cousins after the fight he had with uncle Miguel.. He was feeling his mother's gap and hoping for a right and plausible response.
