Chapter 13

The two slept soundly through the night, and were woken up with the bright light coming from the sun through the window.

"Goodmorning Charms" Mark turned to her as she opened her eyes stretching.

"Morning too....auww my head is aching so bad " Lorna said holding on to her head. Her hair was so messed up looking at Mark with sleepy eyes.

"That's what you get for partying at night"Mark said trying ro tease her but she was clearly still very sleepy.

"Ooo.....Can i sleep some more?"Lorna begged as she crawled closer to him and holding the duvet real tight to herself. Mark looked at her smiling at her funny behaviour. How adorable she looked. He thought to himself.

"With all the puzzles you give me, i still want to make you my woman." He silently said to himself as he watched her sleep more. consider how much she drunk last night she would clearly wake up in the middle of the day or even the next day.....he further thought to himself getting out of bed. Lorna was now completely back to her sleep and was now snoring.

" The guards were able to find traces of magical poof in one of the rooms in the palace; Japheth, your girlfriend's room" King Gerald said as everyone gathered for breakfast early that morning.

"She definately doesn't know any magic, Dad that's a very powerfull one for this matter" Japheth said defending her.

"Mmh no need to worry then, the search shall continue. Especially that room everything needs to be clear as crystal." The king said firmly.

Not everyone was at the table today, Georgina was still mad, while Mr Caleb was off to his plans.The Queen was back to Hunania to make sure they had control of the earth realm.

Lorna learning she couldn't still acces her room, took bath at Mark's bathroom who was off to his duties.She was dressing after having borrowed some clothes from Georgina . She was still in a somber mood . Her phone buzzed and this changed her mood when she realised it was Ashly.

"You need to come , now!" she said calling of the call.

The Misdkoza's brother's had woken up and were causing trouble already. Attacking Ashly with questions, thinking she intended them harm.

"Okay, i just called your sister she will be here in a moment" she said trying to protect herself from Hunkins who was holding a stick to her.

"How can we believe you? You look like the girl we saw on our first day the flying girl!" Hunkins said.

"And the same girl who bullied me at school ,with threats." John added.

"Thats my sister you saw, she is called Sabina and i am Ashly. You boys should actually be greatfull i saved your lives"

"Then tell us what connection does your sister have with the heroes?" Hunkins asked as he placed his stick aside.

"She is Manak's girlfriend, why?" she answered.

The three boys looked at each other and whispered some things to each other.Ashly looked ay them wondering if it's the comma they were in that caused them to be so energetic and violent in this manner. She couldn't access their thoughts and couldn't access Lorna's mind either. "It must be the fact that they are all conscious" she thought.

The boys having relaxed sat at the bed. Meshack who was the most humble of the Misdkoza's brother took the honour of apologising for his brother's wild behaviour. Ashly looked at them wondering what were they planning now,she just couldn't trust there sudden change of attitude towards her. Their irrational behaviour was settling down, and after their gentle apologies to Ashly, she then told them what happened to them and how their sister has done everything to make sure they are fine.They still couldn't remember what exactly happened to them but the last thing they remembered was them looking for the heroe's to see their link to sofia's death.

Lorna was now done dressing when Mark walked in. Her eyes were closed as she pictured Ashly's cottage,planning to go there.

"Looking lovely..." Mark complimented her as he walked in ".... sorry about your room." he continued "Something was found there that is unussual for a fresher student"

Lorna eye's were still closed, she opened them and abit annoyed for the distraction.

"Quite...Mark am trying to focus" she said getting back to closing her eyes.

"Charms this is serious, " He said moving close to her.

"Okay, i dont even know whats happening , what are the guards even looking for?" she said looking at him. Mark was taller than Lorna and so everytime Lorna looked at him she always looked up.

" crowns" he said looking at her.

"So why exactly should i steal crowns?, i know i love power but i am not a robber, why am i even the suspect here?" She was now getting pissed of.

"I now understand why you have a crown tattoo...power; But calm down Charms i know you are innocent"

"What tattoo?....oh yeah" she said realising she actualy had a tattoo.

"Let me make you mine, Lorna." He said after some awkward silence.Holding her by his arm "I want to be the man by your side..."

Lorna smiled at him, as she sweetly looked in his eyes.

"I like you too Mark ...how kind and good you are..."

"Then be mine, pretty" he said as he moved closer locking his lips to hers. "Say yes...." he whispered to her.

"Yes" she whispered back kissing him back, she wanted Mark and had alot of fantasies being with him from the first day she saw him.

Mark lifted her up as she locked her legs around his waist kissing. Her phone buzzed and they ignored it , but it kept on buzzing and Lorna had to pick it.

"Where are you, missy?" Ashly asked very angry.

" coming, let me try again" she said trying to deceive her she has been trying the Mworinia.

"I have to go its urgent" she said as Mark was giving neck kisses driving her all wild.

"Can't it wait" Mark asked begging for her to stay.

She leaned over to kiss him as she gently focused at Ashly place and disdapeared after saying "bye" Mark was left astonished considering this was the second time he had seen her do the Mworinia.

"Charms, you drive me crazy everyday" he said to himself as he recalled to his mind the awesome kisses they had just shared.

Lorna found the boys having a conversation with Ashly when she arrived.

"So sofia was a human girl that Manak was having an affair with?" Hunkins asked as he joined the dots together.

"Then that means, our suspect is non other than your wicked sister and Manak" John added.

"Even if she did kill her , theres nothing you can do about it" Ashly said to them.

"There's is no higher authority than the heroes? Is there?" Meshack asked just when Lorna arrived.

"Finally , you are here.Help me enlighten your brothers on who runs the kingdom of Hummingheart" Ashly said to Lorna.

"The Diraks, the vice chancelor is the 4H's father, and the father to the King, what is this conversation about" Lorna asked.

"We may have just discovered our killer" John said.

"Mmmh back to your mystries, i must say i missed you guys" Lorna said giving them a tight hug. Ashly admired how the four cared for each other, wishing she had a better relationship with her sister.

"Thank you Ashly" Lorna said pulling her into the group hug. "Now on to the next mystery, Ashly do you know anything about the crown tattoo on my neck?"

"We have them too, thought it was something Ashly had done on us" Hunkins said.

"And almost beat me up, thinking am the bad guy" she answered back.

"What!? You three better apologise to Ashly now...!" lorna demanded.

"They did...." Ashly said assuring them everything is okay "my guess on the crown's tattoo's you have, is that you guys actually have the crowns being looked for in the palace"

"Oh no!!!we need to take them back!" Lorna said scared.

Her brothers who were in the dark on what was happening, were told about the dissapearance of the crown's in the Hall of Heroes. Ashly prepared brew for them that brought some of their memories back, in what actually happened thay day. They realised how they acquired them, connecting it to Lorna's dream, It all made sense now. The question was on why Lorna didn't pass out like her brothers. Was it because she was powerfull than her brothers ?? Ashly suggested the reason could be so as she got the remaining crown from her dream.

" You can't give them back, they choose you and so they belong to you" Ashly told her.

"Why us?" Hunkins asked "and what role do you play in all this?"

''I am here to help you, you can trust me" she said looking at them, "i will teach you what you need to know, but i dont know everything "

"What if we are found?" Lorna asked.

"They are not looking for tattoo's but the physical crowns, they can never discover you , this has to be a secret , and the three of you need to hide your tattoo's" she said referring to the boys. " No one should know you four are quadruplets ,that will draw less attention to you"

Lorna was lost in a million thoughts with everything that was happening, and so were her brothers and the five quietly looked at each other as they made another pact on to keep yet another secret. Not knowing how many more they were.
