Very pretty

"Malcom, Dothan, what took you both so long?" asked Darla in anger as she looked at two young looking boys who looked like they were no older than fifteen.

"Sorry we are late Darla, the merchant who sold us these horses tried to fool us, but we know better than to be deceived" came the voice of a one of the boys who had dark hair.

"Yes Darla, we had to make sure that we were not fooled at all" said the other boy.

"Stop lying, I am sure that you both went playing around instead of doing what you were supposed to be doing" said Darla.

"No Darla, we did not" replied the first boy as he shook his head quickly.

"Darla, leave them be, you are too hard on them, they are here after all" said Liam as he smiled and Darla looked at him as she scoffed, of course he was defending them, that was why they liked him so much, because he always defended them, he was always on their side.

"Yes, Liam is right, we are here, thank you Liam" said the dark haired boy as he smiled.

"You are welcome Malcom" said Liam as he smiled at the boy named Malcom as he smiled at him.

"Enough of this, let us go now" said Darla as the second boy named Dothan gave the horse he was holding to Liam as Liam thanked him.

"Wait Darla, you forget that we are waiting for Lily and her men" said Liam Darla scoffed at mention of her name.

"I do not want her and her men here, I do not trust them, who knows if she is only tricking us and trying to kill us? I will not allow that" said Darla as she shook her head.

"How do you know for sure?" asked Liam, as he looked at Darla.

"Well I just do" replied Darla.

"That is not enough a reason Darla, who knows, maybe we are going to the same place?" asked Liam as Darla just scoffed as she saw Wura walking to them with her so called men.

"Have you spoken to your men?" asked Liam as he smiled and he looked at Wura as she nodded her head.

"Where are my manners, sorry, these are my men" said Wura.

"This is Mero, Elihu, and Zuph, and this is Nora" said Wura as she introduced them all to Liam as she watched his reaction closely, she purposely used their real names to see if he would be able to remember them, even if it was only a little but of realization, but there was nothing at all, and that made Wura more sad.

"Nice to meet you" said Mero.

"It is nice to meet you all as well" said Liam as he smiled.

"This is Darla, Malcom and Dothan" said Liam as he introduced them as Darla scoffed while Malcom and Dothan smiled.

"Who are these people Liam?" asked Malcom.

"They are new people that I met, they will be going along with us now" said Liam.

"Oh, I see" said Malcom as he looked at Wura and Dothan did the same.

"My name is Lily" said Wura as she smiled and she introduced herself to the boys as they nodded their heads.

"Ahh, you are very pretty" said Dothan as he smiled and Wura smiled at him, he was sweet.

"Thank you, you are very handsome as well" said Wura as she smiled, the boys looked very young.

"Well I think we should be on our way now Darla, it will get late soon" said Liam as he looked at Darla and all she did was scoff as him as she forcefully took the reins of one of the horses from Dothan as she got on it and she started to ride away.

"Is she alright?" asked Wura in concern as she looked at Liam.

"She is fine, she just does not like meeting new people, do not worry, she will get used to you" said Liam as he smiled and Dothan handed him the second horse.

"Let us go now, before it starts to get late" said Liam as he got on the horse and he rode after Darla who had slowed down as Dothan and Malcom both got on the last horse.

"Come on" said Malcom to Wura as she smiled and they followed after Liam.

"Are you sure about this my Queen?" asked Elihu as he looked at Wura.

"I have not been more sure of anything in my life, now, let us go" said Wura as she walked to get her horse from Zuph and she got on it as Nora decided to ride with Zuph this time as Wura quickly followed after Liam, she was not going to let him go now, no, not now, she had to figure out a way to jog his memories, for him to remember her and all of them.

Wura knew that this was a very serious issue, Liam did not even seem to recognize Mero, his most trusted man and confidant, she could not help but feel more worried.

"Let us go, her Majesty is right, we have to say closer to Liam" said Mero as he mounted his horse and he followed after Wura as they all followed after him.

Wura's horse slowly moved behind Liam and Darla's horses, they seemed to be talking, but Wura could not hear what they were talking about at all, she wanted to know.

"Your name is Lily right?" asked Malcom as he snapped Wura out of her thoughts as he and Dothan rode next to her.

"Ahh…. What?" asked Wura as she was not paying attention at all.

"I said that your name is Lily right?" asked Malcom once again.

"Ahh yes" said Wura as she removed the hood of her cloak.

"A beautiful name for a beautiful woman, you truly are as beautiful as a Lily" said Dothan as Wura laughed.

"Thank you" said Wura as she laughed, these two seemed really sweet.

"Do you have a lover?" asked Dothan as Wura could not believe what she was hearing right now, were these two trying to be funny or what?

"I am married" said Wura as she pointed to the rings on her finger.

"To who, one of those men?" asked Dothan as he pointed to Mero and the others who were behind them.

"No… to someone else…" said Wura as she looked at Liam who was ahead.

"What a shame" said Malcom, of course it made sense for a beautiful woman like her to be taken already.

"Wait, how old are the two of you?" asked Wura out of curiosity.

"I am sixteen" replied Malcom.

"And I am fifteen" said Dothan.

"And how old are you?" asked Malcom.

"Nineteen" replied Wura.

"You both are little brothers to me" said Wura as she pointed that out quickly.

"But we are not little boys" replied Dothan as Wura laughed, of all the things that she had heard or seen, this had to be the strangest for her, both Dothan and Malcom were something else entirely, she was older than them by a lot, they both seemed cheeky one in the same.

Liam looked back, wondering who was laughing, the sound was melodious to his ears, as if he had heard it before, and he saw that Wura was the one who was laughing as Darla looked back and followed his train of sight as she frowned once her eyes saw Wura.

"Malcom, Dothan, come right over here right now" said Darla.

"Ooh, see you later fine lady" said Malcom as Wura laughed and she shook her head as Malcom rode ahead to meet up with Darla and Liam.

"My Queen, you have to be careful with those two" said Mero as he rode beside Wura and she turned to look at him.

"Oh Mero, you worry too much, those two are harmless" said Wura as Mero begged to differ, you could trust no one here, no not anyone, not In this foreign land that they were in right now.

"But still my Queen, be careful, we cannot trust anyone here… not even Liam himself" said Mero as he pointed out that fact and Wura looked at Liam… of course she could trust him… he was her husband after all.

"We can trust him" said Wura.

"No we cannot my Queen, not in this state that he is in, he does not even remember his own identity" said Mero as Wura did not want to listen to him anymore.

"Well then, we will just have to make him remember, and I will do just that" said Wura as Mero just sighed, he could sense that this was not anything easy at all.

…

The sun had set and the moon came out in its stead, Liam had decided that it would be best for them to stop moving for now, to which Wura agreed with no hesitation, because she was not going to leave him alone at all.

Malcom and Dothan made a fire, while Darla prepared some dinner, which she reluctantly shared with Wura and the others.

Wura could not eat at all, not at all, not with the horrible sighed that she was faced with seeing, as they all sat round the fire. Liam and Darla were sitting together, as they both laughed as they spoke to each other and Darla gave Liam something to taste which Liam happily accepted at he smiled.

Wura could not take this not any longer, so she stood up and she was about to make her way to where Liam was, until she felt someone hold her hand to stop from her doing so as she turned back to look at him in anger.

"What?!" asked Wura in anger as she looked at Mero with cold eyes.
