•Kenna's point of view•

I hugged him for what seemed to be forever but then I realized how long I've been holding him for so I let go of him embarrassed.

"I'm so glad you're back safe." I took a step back.

"I'm glad I received the biggest hug from you." He chuckled and gave me a cheeky look, "Did you go out horseback riding while I was gone?" we started walking down the hall.

"eh little bit, I'm going to be honest with you it wasn't as much fun as when we used to go together."

A huge smile appeared on his face, "Kenna I..."

"My dear brother! How much I missed you. Yet you don't come see me as soon as you arrive here. You went and greeted Sebastian and Condè but not me, what's that about?" Julien cut him off by giving him a hug.

"It's good to see you brother, my apologies I thought you were busy."

"Yeah. Right. Jackass." Julien whispered.

I gasped at his comment and he looked at me. "Oh my sweet Kenna I didn't say hello properly." He pushed Francis away who was standing close to me. He grabbed my hand and kissed the back of it. "My birthday celebration is tomorrow night, you are my special guest."

Francis coughed to get his attention, then pulled Julien away from me. "Then you should go and prepare for it big brother." He gave him a fake smile which made me laugh.

Julien showed him his middle finger, then looked at me again with a charming smile, "I will see you tomorrow night my beautiful Kenna." He winked at me then walked away.

Francis shook his head and looked at me, "I'm sorry about him.."

"Don't worry I'm used to it by now." I giggled.

Later that day, Lady Olenna made me have lunch with her in the dining hall. There is always so much going on that I forget how beautiful this palace really is. The dining room was so beautiful, the huge mahogany table was placed in the middle, the chairs had come from the same tree, each one beautiful in its simplicity, all clean straight lines, and high backs. I pulled a chair and sat down in the middle, Olenna sat down at the end of the table and ordered the maids to bring the food.

I started eating, not noticing how fast I was eating because I was hungry. A couple minutes later Sebastian came in and casually sat down right in front of me on the other side of the table.

I didn't pay him much attention and continued to eat my food.

"Good Morning Grandma, hope you've had a great day so far." He blew a kiss to Olenna.

"Thank you dear, you seem in a good mood, how is Mary?"

He looked at me as soon as Olenna mentioned Mary. "She's good, thank you."

"Did she spend the night in your chamber, Sebastian? She was in a good mood this morning." She smiled at Sebastian, she had no idea what was going on between me and Sebastian.

I could see he was uncomfortable with the subject. I put my fork down and stood up, "Thank you for the food, it was lovely. I have to go get ready." I quickly left the dining room.

I started walking to my chamber when I heard his footsteps behind me, "Kenna please let me talk to you!" He grabbed my arm and stopped me. I faced him and looked him in the eyes for the first time in days.

"I'm sorry, I know I made a huge mistake and I feel so angry at myself because of that. I never knew there would be a day when Mary would come back... She was someone in the past. I hurt you and that was the last thing I wanted to do." He gently touched my shoulders.

"Bash. You are allowed to be in love with whoever you want, we were never together so you have nothing to worry about."

"No Kenna please don't say that. I care about you more than I care about anyone else, I will always have love for you so please...forgive me and let me be there for you." He looked really upset.

I paused a little before replying, "Apology accepted." I gave him a faint smile still not sure. He smiled back and kissed my forehead then hugged me tightly for what seemed to be forever.

As soon as I walked back into my chambers Catia and Lysa were standing there waiting for me.

"Lady Kenna! you promised you won't be late!" Lysa pouted. "We looked everywhere for you but eventually gave up."

"uh, I'm so sorry I was in the dining room eating with Lady Olenna." I walked over in front of the mirror. I fixed my hair and choose a dress with the girls help.

I picked out a beautiful light brown dress and put it on.

"Wow, you look beautiful! I think this headpiece would go well with it." Catia put a gorgeous headpiece on my hair and with that, I was done.

We all walked to the throne room where Julien's birthday celebration was, there were so many young girls around him it made me laugh.

"Look at him flirting with those girls like there is no tomorrow." I suddenly noticed Mary next to me, I laughed at her comment.

Julien noticed us and walked towards us, he bowed in front of me, "Thank you so much for coming." he kissed the back of my hand with his usual cheeky smile. "You look beautiful as always."

"Thank you, happy birthday!" I gave him a flower I picked for him. He thanked me.

He then walked up to the throne and stood in front of everyone still holding my flower. "Thank you very much to everyone who attended today. This event is not only my birthday's but it's my Father's victory against the enemy. We shall drink to happiness that is upon our kingdom!" He raised his drink up and everyone roared with happiness.

"Now for the fun part of our celebration!" He ordered they bring out a big bed and be placed near the throne. The bed had a beautiful white lace above it, "And the lucky guy of the night is...you" he pointed at a guy in the crowd. He bowed to Julien then sat down on the bed. "Girls, please." Two girls smiled and walked to the bed as well.

Julien nodded at them and to my surprise, they started undressing each other, doing it right there in the middle of the guests. My mouth fell wide open and I looked at Mary in shock.

She laughed at my reaction, "It's a tradition they have. Usually, young lords like Julien order other people to do this at their celebrations."

"What?! what kind of tradition is that?" I looked at the guy and the girls and they were going at it like there is no tomorrow. All the guests cheering them on while drinking more alcohol, "Oh my gosh I can't look at this anymore." The girls laughed at me again.

"So my sweet Kenna." Julien walked beside me again and I rolled my eyes, "Since it's my birthday cou..."

"Not with a thousand condoms Julien. Be happy with the flower I got you." I cut him off and walked away.

"Kenna wait!" I heard him calling me but I ignored him and ran out of there.

I looked around for Francis when I suddenly felt really dizzy, the guest's faces around me started to get blurry and I knew I'm about to have a vision. I sat down on a chair as people's voices started to fade away, I remembered Mary had thought me to calm down and close my eyes so I did as had she told me.

Everything went dark. Moments later I opened my eyes again shocked by what I have just seen. I quickly got up and started looking for King Henry.

I spotted him talking to some guest and I walked up to him, "Sorry, your grace may I talk to you for a second?"

He nodded and took me to a more quiet place, "Are you alright Kenna? You're really pale."

"Yes I'm fine. I know it may sound crazy to you but I just had a vision and I saw your army attacking a castle...and getting your kingdom back that King Huge took away from you."

A huge smile appeared on his face then he placed his hands on my shoulders, "Tell me, my little Saviour. Tell me how I can finally have my kingdom back!"
