"The three musketeers"

"Kareen?"

When Simon heard the name Crimson just took, he retrieved his sword back.

"So... how did you escaped this time?"

Simon looked at the woman had a dark red eyes, and she had a sweet smile, which was one of the beautiful quality of her, She didn't wore gowns like the Vampiress do, She wore a red top, which was very beautiful to look at, and a skirt which was black made from very elegant fabric.her hairs tied in a ponytail, so that it would not interfere during her fight.

After listening to Simon's question,she turned to face him, as soon as she saw him she smirked.

"Those old tricks!"

She smiled even broader, forgetting about Crimson who was held in mid air by Kareen.

"Can't we go down and talk?"

Crimson recast his spells, and landed on the ground.

Kareen is the cousin of both Simon and Crimson. She is the only daughter of Simon's uncle

'Mr. Dagney', who is the Younger brother of 'The late king'.

being the only heir she was burdened with all the responsibilities of the family business, Since his father believed that he was the righteous king after his brother's death, but the queen didn't let him manipulate with the throne, upset with the outcome he decided to leave the palace. and took over the Eastern business with his dirty tricks.

Simon, Crimson and Kareen were very close since childhood, and they named themselves as 'The three musketeers ', and after they were separated, Simon isolated himself inside his room and Crimson spent his entire time at the tower, where they used to play. but Kareen was the naughtiest among them, She always found a way to sneak out. she returned to the palace the night after they left. after knowing she was missing Mr.Dagney searched for her all the places, at last he came to the palace to see his daughter was sleeping soundly with other children, after they were teens, she mastered transportation technique just like Simon's.

"Wanna go home?"

Simon looked at Kareen who looked at him with a smile, Crimson got up to look at them, but they were vanished before he could say a word.

"Not again...!"

Crimson's jaws dropped as he was completely ignored he screamed which echoed entire forest.

"Your speed is still better than me!"

Kareen complimented Simon who had already arrived and stood waiting for her, but he told her that she is better than him as she doesn't need blood to keep herself alive.

"You can have my blood, brother!"

she patted his shoulders, cracking a joke which made him to smile, he told her that even if he was left with her on an island he would rather die than drink her blood, after listening to his joke her temper sparked, which made her blood boil inside her resulting him flying in air by her kick.

"Did you fight again?"

Crimson rushed towards Kareen as she stood with a long face. She told that he offended her first, Simon could not resist his anger he walked towards her, him pulling her cheeks, his hairs grabbed by her, it was the perfect scene one could see, Crimson's patience was at the edge,he felt a flicker of irritation, he turned back to face them.

"Stop it now!"

both freed eachother as they gulped after hearing Crimson yell, they walked out of the place making excuses, leaving him to calm.

"Always fighting...they aren't kids anymore!"

Crimson spoke to himself.

Simon walked her to The Queen's chamber, after seeing Kareen queen rushed to receive her, she hugged her, and she asked her to take seat, and started talking to her.

"How have you been? why didn't you visit us these days?".

Kareen stood holding Queen's hands, She told she was doing fine. there talk was interrupted when Roseline walked in not knowing that Queen had visitors, she was holding a scarf that she knitted, Which the queen had taught her.

"I did it!"

she was so excited to show her work, that she even forget to knock, after realising she turned around to walk away, but her hands were held by Simon.

"Where do you think you are going, introduced yourself!"

Roseline turned to face the woman, who had a very friendly smile, which made her feel comfortable.

"So you are that woman!"

Kareen ran to hold her hands, which made Roseline flinch, She had a very uncomfortable smile on her face, but it didn't stopped Kareen to examine her.

"Iam Roseline..!"

before she could finish introducing her, she was shocked, when she looked at her chest.

"How's yours bigger than mine?"

Roseline was shocked, but she didn't let go of her smile, there was awkwardness in the room. Crimson who just entered, after listening to her, he looked at Simon, who was already facing him.

Roseline didn't know what to tell, she just stood, praying that if someone could save her.

"Kareen..... aren't you tired let me walk you to you room!"

Queen took her to get room. Roseline covered her chest, as she turned to face both of them, who looked away as soon as she turned. Roseline felt very embarrassed.

"excuse me.. please!"

she rushed out the room to closed the door, she was still processing about the incident.

"What does she mean?"

she stood biting her nails, she hugged her scarf she knitted and sat on the couch.

"She's my cousin!"

She was started by Simon's sudden voice. she stood up to yell at him, and asked him not to use his teleportation as she was not willing to give anymore blood of her.

"I don't need permissions!"

he took the scarf she knitted, it was very beautiful red colour muffler she knitted with which he covered his neck.

"umm.... it's warm, smells like you!"

she was flustered by his compliments, but acted as if she doesn't Care.

She turned back to face the moon. which was covered by clouds, making it unable to see

"Don't you think, the moon's pretty?"

he fondly trapped her with arms locked around her neck.

"Stay still!"

he was so close to her, she could not even push him, as he was so affectionate towards her.
