Suzine came towards us and as her eyes lands on her face a smile erupts on her face . She helds Gianna's hand. " Sister Gianna, Why are your lips swollen ?" She asked in a teasing tone.
Gianna startled by her question just stands there without saying anything. Her face becoming more red as the time passed.
Even Emily, Emma and Olivia blushed as they saw Gianna's face. But among them all one had something more.
What is this ? Why does my heart beats faster everytime he looks at me with those eyes ! Maybe I co.... No !No ! No ! What am I thinking ? I am too old.... But maybe he likes ol....!!!! Ahhhhhh ! This is not good, my daughters are just beside me.
Emily's mind was still on their last interaction and ever time she looks at Dian. His handsome face close to her's flashes in her mind making her blush.
Seeing the atmosphere lively again, I spoke.
" Okay, so you all know about the banquet now."
I turns toward Emily and continues. " Emily, you need a day rest to get back to normal completely. So you are not going to attend the banquet ".
As I spoke a sad look appears on her face. Noticing her expression I moves towards her and sits beside her holding her hand gently .
" You are my responsibility now, Emily. All of you, so rest well and get better quickly".
" Once you are well, I will hold as many banquet as you want. Okay ? ". I looks toward Emily and Olivia as I speaks.
Noooooooo... ! It's beating again ! But he looks so good ! And close, I wanna bite him ! Aaahh ! I can't even concentrate what he is saying ! His hand is soo... Manly.
Emily gets fluster and just nodds with a
' Hmm'. Her face again gets beetroot red.
Seeing things getting hearted Emma interviens. " Mother ! I think you should rest. Should you ?" Her tone sarcastic.
Noticing her expression Emily nodds and speaks. " Y-yeah, I-i think I should".
" Okay, rest well. If you need anything the maids will be here. Call me if it's anything important". I speaks as I stands from there and makes my way outside.
Leaving my room, I Heads toward the family Head's room.
...
There in the room sat the buttler beside the main desk, going through some papers.
As he senses me, he stands and bows. " Young lord".
"Hm". With a nod I takes my seat in the centre.
The chair grand, with a air of authority. Many inscriptions drawn on it. Some even thousands year old. Giving it a mysterious look.
" Butter, Any updates on any matter and what about the banquet tommorow ?" I asks as I make myself comfortable on the chair.
The buttler speaks as he collects some papers from his desk. " Young lord, the new Skyster clothings founded by you is doing too well. It's name is circulating almost all over the continent".
He speaks as he gives me some papers. Which contained the quantity of the suits produced, total profit earned and something more.
" There are many lords who has shown interest in your business. And as for the banquet. It's preparation are almost completed young lord ".
" Hmmm, good. Any moves from the Kingdom ?" I asks as a serious expression appears on my face.
" No, young lord. Our spies are there all the time and if there's any movement from them. We will be notified immediately ". The buttler answers.
I strechs my body as I hears buttler's answer. As the Kingdom can a great problem even if we can win against them.
We will be face to face soon. But it will take some time. Let's just enjoy as much as we can before the showdown. Oh ! Wait !
" Buttler, what about the secret guards. Did they implemented what I told them ?" I asks as I remembers my last conversation with their head/leader.
" Yes, young lord. They have already implemented what you told them and the in a single day they seem more good now". The buttler answers.
" Hmmm, that good. Then all that's left is the banquet now, huh. Buttler, keep my suit ready". Getting all things settled I stand from my seat and heads towards the training area.
" Yes, young lord ". The buttler speaks as he bows.
But away from these conversations, some more important discussions were going on.
...
In Dian's room.
After some time when Dian left, Suzine too let's the room giving the elf family more space.
Now, all the three daughter sits beside their mother. The view of four otherworldly beauty making even the air vibrant.
As their conversation continues, a question appears in Emily's mind. " Lia ( Olivia's alias ) you told me Dian rescued us."
Olivia nodds hearing her mother's question.
" Yes, mother. He did ".
" Then how did he brought all of us here. We are the royals of the Elven kingdom. It's basically impossible to bring all of us ".Emily's expression becomes a little serious as she asks again.
" And he also said that we are his responsibility, what does that mean ?"
Hearing their mother's question, none of them speaks for some time and a silence creeps in.
After some time, Olivia spoke. " Mother, I told you about their fight and Dian winning. But the main role was of the stakes they made before the fight ".
Seeing her mother full attention towards her, Olivia continues. " From Dian the stakes were Gianna and Skyster family's new clothing business which is rapidly growing with a astonishing speed ".
Emily's expression changes as she hers Olivia. " Hm ? But I don't remember any clothing business under Skyster family ?".
" It's foundes some time ago by Dian himself. You wasn't awake at that time. He introduced some new outfits with strange design making the whole kingdom want them". Olivia explains slowly.
" And the stakes Lios had were the three of us. So, after Dian won he brought us all here".
Hearing her daughter Emily speaks.
" Hm? Even then it's basically not possible to bring a former queen and two princess of a royal family."
" The ancestor ". This time instead of Olivia, Emma speaks.
" What ! The ancestor came out ?" Hearing Emma, Emily speaks with a shocking voice.
Her brain starts racing automatically.
No, how can it be ? It's very rare for a ancestor to come out like this. They are basically a last hope of a kingdom ! A ancestor will only come forward if the whole kingdom is in danger. .... Wait ! Could it be !
Seeing her mother's another shocking expression. Emma speaks. " Yes, what you are thinking is correct."
Getting a heads up from her daughter, her expression darkens. " B-but t-that too -".
Before she could complete her sentence, Emma completes it. " Aggresive? Isn't."
Emily nodds as she hers her.
" He brought the secret guards of Skyster family with him, all of them. Because he felt it wouldn't go smoothly in Kingdom of elves". Emma stands from the bed and moves toward Gianna before continuing.
" And he was right. And all of this. For what ". Emm speaks as she helds Gianna's both shoulder from behind.
Getting the signal, both Olivia and Emily looks towards Gianna. She blushes as she becomes the centre of attention.
He did that for Gianna. Hmmm... Maybe if I ... Then he will ..... Do something like that... For me too... Aaaahhh ! It's so embarrassing ! He is all in my mind. Even when I just saw him for the first time.
Seeing her mother blushing face, Emma clears her throat and continues ". So, after Dian won. The ancestor herself sealed the whole between with magic ".
Hearing this Emily's expression changes to of a surprise. " Wait, if the ancestor herself oversee and concluded the bet."
Realising what she is going to say made her cheeks flush. " Then....., aren't we basically....his ?".
Both Olivia and Emma's cheeks turn a little red as they hears their mother.
Aaaahhhhh ! T-this i-isss unexpected, my heart is beating so fastttt. It's gonna come out ! So, t-this is what he m-meant by b-being responsibile ?
" Humphh ! I am going to my room !" Emma leaves the room as weird silence settles in.
Olivia too had many questions in her mind.
But aside from them Gianna had something different going on through her mind. Wait ! I-is m-my m-mother gonna be my s-sister ! Olivia and Emma are okay, but... Wait, it's not that bad as I think. Our whole family can live together happily !
A picture containing Dian and all of them appears in her minds as she thinks. Her face brightens with this idea.
