Chapter 28- Reunited part 2
(SAGE P.O.V)
When Nashi came to the room and told me my father was here. Even though I already knew he was coming, I felt myself getting nervous. I walked into the hallway and my mother was standing next to Duke Vernon. She looked at me and I could see she was nervous as well. She reached for my hand and we walked down the stairs together.
Nashi, Sylvester, and Duke Vernon followed behind us. Asiana was standing next to the front door. I felt my heart racing as soon as Sylvester opened the door.
We began to walk out of the villa, it was dark outside so I couldn't see much.
Suddenly light started to come on, lighting up the walkway.
Mother and I was still holding hands with everyone else following behind. We started to walk ahead of them, and I saw three people standing outside the gate that had opened and saw two people walking through the entrance.
When I noticed one of them was Rosie, I let go of my mother's hand without thinking and started running toward her. Not even a second later, mother passed me up running ahead of me.
"Whoa she's fast", I thought to myself.
When we made it closer, I saw a tall muscular man with long hair standing next to Rosie. But before I could realize anything else, I almost collided with Rosie.
"I missed you Rosie", I said, while both of us were on the ground.
She hugged me and I got off top of her and reached my hand to pick her up.
Once she was up, I turned and saw mother's body wrapped around the man that was walking with Rosie.
"No way", I said, realizing it was my father.
Mother got down and turned towards Rosie. He turned and faced my direction. I walked closer to him and he hugged me so tight, I could hardly breathe.
"Wait, father, I can't breathe.", I said, tapping his chest.
After he let me go, I heard my mother crying. When I turned around she saw her hugging Rosie from the waist down.
"Mother", I called out to her.
She reached her hand out and I walked over to her.
"My babies", she kept saying while crying.
Father walked over and engulfed all of us in a hug at once. Kissing us all on the forehead one at a time.
"My girls", he said, and lifted up his body.
After hugging for a few more minutes, Rosie and I helped mother up and I dusted off her pants.
When mother got up she saw grandfather standing by the gate, and grandfather started to walk up to her.
"Dad", she said, while tearing up again.
Grandfather hugged mother while kissing on top of her head. He wasn't crying but I could tell he was emotional.
When mother saw Peyton, she immediately went to hug her and they both got emotional.
"Thank you for keeping my daughters safe", she said.
Peyton rubbed mother on her back while they were hugging.
"I made a promise to you", she replied.
They hugged for a little while longer.
I heard footsteps and turned my head, I saw Nashi, Sylvester and Duke Vernon approaching my father. They bowed their heads towards him.
"Prince Moises", they said, in a respectful manner.
"You can rise", father said, looking down at them.
They all raised their head and Duke Vernon stepped forward.
"Which one of you is Sylvester?", my father asked.
Sylvester stepped up and bowed once again before raising his body.
"I'm Sylvester, your highness," he said.
"Thank you for rescuing my wife and daughter", he said.
"Why don't we all head inside now, Dinner will be ready in a few. ", Duke Vernon said.
Father nodded, and everyone followed behind.
Once we were back inside the villa, I was able to see my father's face more clearly.
"We really do look alike", I said, looking up at him.
He smiled.
"Well one of you had to inherit my good looks.", he said.
"Wowww', Rosie and I said at the same time.
Mother walked over and placed her hand on Rosie's head.
"Well at least I have one that resembles me, if both of them looked like you, I'll have to deal with more than one conceited person.", she said.
Everyone around us laughed, and Rosie and I looked at each other.
"Well that explains it", Rosie said.
"Explains what?", mother asked, while stroking Rosie's hair.
"How father won you over.", she said, with a smirk on her face.
Mother started blushing, and father started laughing.
While Rosie and I were teasing of our mother, one of the maids came into the room and told us dinner was ready.
(ROSEMARY P.O.V)
While walking behind my mother whose arms were locked in father's arms. I was still amazed at how much I looked like her. It was different from seeing her portrait.
I heard whispering and looked at the man that was walking in front of Sage. He kept glancing at her and I could literally see the hearts forming in his eyes.
"I think he likes her", Yeshiva said, behind me as he whispered in my ear.
I glanced behind over my shoulder and saw Yeshiva getting pulled back. My grandfather pulled him by the collar. I chuckled a bit.
"Get away from my granddaughter", he said.
"Looks like you have another one to worry about.", Yeshiva said, while smirking and pointed at the man.
Grandfather scoffed, when he looked at him, "I have no problem beating up a noble.", he said.
Peyton cleared her throat, she was walking next to grandfather.
Sage and I started to laugh. Before I could question her about him, we arrived in front of the dining room.
One of the butlers bowed their heads and opened the door for us to walk in. When we walked in, the man that was looking back at Sage, grabbed her hand and escorted her to her seat.
"That son of a bitch", I heard my grandfather mutter.
Father grabbed mother's hand and escorted her to a seat next to him.
I started walking towards a seat, across from sage and Yeshiva pulled the chair out for me. I sat down and Yeshiva sat in the seat next to me.
(SAGE P.O.V)
After Nashi escorted me to my seat, Rosie sat across from me. When I saw Yeshiva sit next to her, I balled my fist and wanted to punch him.
"No way", I said, "that bastard made a move on my sister, while I wasn't around", I thought to myself.
I looked over in the direction of mys mother and father, and theywere in their own world completely ignoring us. I cleared my throat to interrupt them.
"I know you too haven't seen each other in a while, but you two really need a room.", I said.
Is this how kids feel when they see their parents flirt with each other, I thought to myself.
Duke Vernon stood up and bowed his head, "Prince Moises, I'm glad you're safe, the kingdom hasn't been the same since you left", he said.
"Have a seat Duke Vernon, we'll discuss the kingdom once we get inside of the office", Father said.
Duke Vernon nodded and sat back down.
Nashi stood upand introduced himself, "It's nice to meet you all, "I'm Nashi Synovial", he said.
Nashi turned towards Rosie, "Princess Rosemary", he said and bowed.
Sylvester stood up and bowed, "I'm Sylvester Synovial", he said, and raised his head up.
"Why is he bowing to me?"Rosie asked, she was so confused.
Father chuckled, "It's because you two are my daughters, your status is above theirs. In the nobility costume one must bow their heads to their superiors. He has to bow to you. Whether I'm exiled or not, you two still carry the royal bloodline.", he explained.
Rosie and I nodded our heads in understanding.
After an hour had passed, we were finished with dinner. Rosie and I went to take a walk through the garden.
"I'm glad you and mom were together", she said, while holding my hand as we walked.
"I was really surprised," I said.
"What about you?"I asked her.
"I was determined to find you and asked yeshiva to train me. I wanted to learn how to be a mercenary. Grandfather had me training in the mountains for weeks.", she said while pretending to shiver.
"I wondered how we're going to get out of the kingdom", I said.
Before she could answer, we heard footsteps behind us. We turned around and noticed mother and father were behind us.
"Sage, Rosemary", mother called out to us.
We walked over to where they were.
Father placed hands on top of our heads.
"I'm so happy, I finally met both of you," he said.
Father kissed both of us on top of head and continued talking.
"During the time when your mother had to escape, I was framed and charged with murder of a royal family member, which could get you executed. My mother begged my father the king to exile me instead. I didn't even get the chance to see you two being born. Later on during the years, Marianna found me again through one of the knights who wanted to come with me after I was exiled. She emailed me pictures of you two over the years. After I found out your mother was locked up in the palace dungeon. I went to break her out through one of the secret tunnels that led to the dungeon. I ended up running into my brother Prince Marshall, before I could reach the kingdom and was ambushed.", he explained.
"What are we going to do now?", I asked, curiously.
"I'm going to kill my brother", he said while gritting his teeth.
Mother placed her hand on the side of father's face.
"We should start training once you get settled in, I don't know how long we have until they start searching throughout the whole kingdom. We have to be prepared, we can't fully trust the maids here", she stated.
Father turned towards her, "Why, did something happen?", he asked, while looking at her.
Mother started to whisper, but we were able to hear, "Two of the maids tried to poison Sage, one of them called her an illegitimate princess", she stated.
Father's facial expression changed immediately and he turned and ran into the villa.
"Wait! Dad?!"I yelled out, I looked and saw Rosie was running right behind him.
"Shit, they're going to get us kicked out", mother said, holding her head back, and sighing.
"Did you forget you tried to kill two of his maids in front of him?", I said.
She leaned her head forward and sighed, "Shit, let's go stop them" she said.
We ran into the villa, saw Duke Vernon, Sylvester, And Nashi all bowing their heads.
"Where's the maid that try to poison my daughter?", he said, looking terrifying.
"They're in the prison cell", Nashi said, with his head still down.
"If they're not dead by tomorrow, I'll kill them myself", father said.
Nashi nodded his head.
Duke Vernon raised up, "We have your rooms ready your highness.", he said.
"I'm staying in the room with my sister", Rosie said.
Mother nodded her head, "I'll stay in the room with your father.
Duke Vernon looked at grandfather and Yeshiva.
"I refuse to share a room with the bastard, who's trying to steal my granddaughter.", grandfather said, looking at Duke Vernon and pointing his thumb towards Yeshiva.
Duke Vernon looked really nervous talking to my grandfather.
"No of course you two are in separate rooms", he said.
I saw Yeshiva and grandfather looking towards Nashi.
"Grandfather", I called out to him.
He looked at me and I shook my head.
He smirked and then ignored me.
"Poor Nashi" Rosie whispered to me, "Grandfather and father are going to give him a hard time, just like they did Yeshiva" she stated.
"What happened to Yeshiva?", I asked, I was kind of hoping he got beat up.
"They kicked the door open, while Yeshiva and I were kissing. They dragged him out the room", she said.
I felt satisfied, knowing he got beat up.
After a while Rosie and I walked up the stairs to our room. Nashi and Yeshiva glared at each other the whole time while escorting us. Once we made it to the door. Nashi bent down and kissed my hand.
"Sleep well Princess Sage", he said and then bowed to Rosie. "Goodnight Princess Rosemary".
We entered our room, and Rosie and I were so exhausted. We laid down and dozed off.
The next morning, we were awoken by someone knocking on the door. Mother came into the room holding maid uniforms in her hand. I lifted up and shook Rosie because she dozed off again.
"Wake up", I said, shaking her.
"Mmmmmm", she groaned as she slapped my arm.
Mother came close to the bed.
"We have a problem", she said. "Get up and follow me to the dressing room. We need to put these uniforms on.", she stated, while showing me the uniform.
I looked at the maid uniform, and looked back at her.
"Why, what's going on?", I asked, curiously.
"We have an unexpected visitor.", she said.
