Chapter 108 : I don't like to suffer.

Nectar sighed as she looked at herself in the mirror, " Is it too late to pretend to be sick "? Liam laughed as he put the dresses on the bed, " I think so ". Nectar pouted slightly, " I know. Can we go now "?

Liam nodded, using his wind powers to lift the chest " Yeah, this is the last one ". Nectar nodded and they left the palace. Liam noticed that she was being quiet and it bothered him, " What's wrong "?

Nectar looked up at him and shook her head, " It's nothing, I just have a bad feeling about this whole thing ". Liam smiled with relief, " You're just nervous and besides, the almighty Nectar Socta doesn't know the definition of fear ".

Nectar laughed as she felt her anxiety melt away, " You're right. I should have a good time ". Liam mentally face palmed himself [ That isn't what I meant ] but Nectar was already so hyped as she walked, " Who's gonna have a good time? I'm gonna have a good time ".

Their carriages had been put outside in the army grounds. There were two gates that made up the imperial palace. The first one led to a sort of assembly ground for the solders.

One had to pass these soldiers to get to the second gate that led to the imperial palace. Nectar's good mood only got better as she ran up to the kids, " You guys look adorable. I'm so glad you're coming with me ".

She packed the kids into a big hug, kissing each of them before letting go, " Now where's our carriage "? She'd traveled a lot in her first life and they could get uncomfortable quickly and she wanted something a little bigger, especially since she had so many people coming with her.

Nectar was surprised when Athena came and curtseyed, " Morning Sister Empress ". Nectar nodded and helped her up, " Morning Lady Athena. You look gorgeous ". Athena blushed slightly as she smoothed out her dress.

It was a long white A line dress with a sweetheart neckline which she matched with a black fur coat, hat and boots, " You jest sister, you look a lot more dashing ". Nectar was dressed in a grey dress covered in black glitter and slightly puffy.

She had on black gloves and boots to match. Her jewelry was a little bit more flamboyant than usual and she wore her hair in long wavy curls that went over her shoulders and framed her face.

Nectar suddenly draped her hand over Athena, " You're right. We both look amazing ". Athena couldn't help but laugh, the more time she spent with Nectar the more she wondered why she'd ever hate her.

Nectar suddenly turned serious as the carriages appeared, " Sister Athena, you must remember that you're in charge of this ". Athena blinked a few times [ Did she just say that? ] " Why would you leave me in charge "?

Nectar tilted her head and smiled, " Because it's what you want and besides....I wanna have some fun ". Athena sighed as she watched Nectar skip to her carriage and helped the kids in, " She's a lot stranger than I thought....but in a good way ".

The kids were surprised as they entered the carriage. August had to look back outside just to make sure his eyes weren't playing any tricks on him. The carriage itself was a curved rectangular shape painted white and it had two pairs of wheels on either side of the back.

The interior was quite posh though. The front part had an inbuilt black leather chair that covered it all the way to the door before stopping. The rest of the carriage seemed plane but was covered in black pillows and different blankets.

Nectar entered with the help of Liam, still smiling " Do you guys like it "? Jewlica nodded, " My second time in a carriage and it's even better ". Nectar laughed, " That's what I wanted to hear ".

She jumped back down and saw Fauna and Tera with the luggage. They'd packed everything they needed and thought they'd need. Liam and Nectar looked at each other before using their powers on the many chests.

They shrunk to half their size and were extremely light, " I can't believe the spell still works ". Nectar shrugged, pulling Fauna and Tera towards the carriage, " You two keep an eye on those kids. We'll take care of the rest ".

Fauna and Tera nodded and climbed into the carriage. Nectar watched as Liam flew the chests to the carriage, telling him to arrange it, they were done in a matter of seconds.

Nectar felt happy with the result as she carried the last chest into the carriage, " And you said it was a waste of time to be this organized ". Liam rolled his eyes as he followed close behind, " The way you do it is scary ".

Nectar laughed, " There are so many trying to make a fool of me no matter how much I play the fool. I must be prepared, I don't wish to suffer during this trip ".
