Birds chirping could be heard in the garden
Soft wind blew in the beautiful garden of castle with lush green grass .
Elijah could smell pleasant smell of wet mud
Mixed with birdsong, giggling and laughter of little Isla could be heard from where Elijah sat on the bench .
Isla was running around the fountain trying to get away from izzy who had mud in her hands
Elijah smiled softly seeing his sister happy ,his mother wanted this the reason as to why she send her son away rather than fighting by her side at least he could have defend her in some way .
He will always going to regret ,leaving his mother in that situation defenceless
But if he wouldn't have left ,then he knew very well what the outcome would have been.
Whoever this queen is ,Elijah didn't know what she will do or any one else ,
Sure he had two soldiers always guarding them but who know what kind of creatures reside here .
After all no one is normal here ,but the most shocking thing was, that when mira told everything to him ,somewhere deep down he wasn't shocked, he just knew that there were creatures like this that exists.
The information didn't seem that new to him .
But now he has other matters to focus on ,like protection of his sister
And distance from this castles creature
But there was certain someone who was attracting him.
His train of thought was broken by soft voice of blue eyed girl with brown hairs
That were blown away from her face by the soft wind .
She stood in front of two little girls , now whispering to them mitanda stoped and the little girls ran away.
She then looked in Elijah direction meeting his eyes .
Miranda started walking in Elijah direction and sat on bench he is sitting on.
While he watched her every move.
"I am sorry "she spoke quietly, fiddling with a little daisy in her hands .
When her words registered in his head Elijah looked away and spoke "why are you sorry ,its me who has to be sorry the other day I was asking too many questions ."
"No , I just overreacted I am really never like that but the other day I was feeling ,just a little off ."she said dismissing Elijah sorry ,she knew very well whose fault it was .
"You know my mother used to say that the one who makes a girl apologise is not a true gentleman. " Elijah said remembering his mother words .
"Oh well ,I don't want you to be a gentleman, because I did the wrong thing and I have to apologise for it, properly. "Miranda stated looking at Elijah ,then she continued "so i am going to take you guys to eat some where with me so be ready "
With that she stood up and and put her hand forward in Elijah direction so he can shake her hand .
"So as every thing is settled, we are friends now right."she asked tilting her head to the side
"Friends "with that Elijah shake her hand .
And who knew that there simple hand shake will going to be trun into much more than that.
