Chapter Twenty One

* Althea *

I was already panting, running from the grounds of the villa up to the hill where the last point of practice was taking place. Drenched in sweat since I am not used to running on my human form, I push myself harder but seeing how far is Dylan and Albert from me just makes me want to cry. It's been a month since we have lived peacefully in this Western land and I have decided to train myself.

"Come on, your Majesty. We are almost finished, please hurry up! I could smell the breakfast that Donna prepares on top of the hill."

Dylan's voice had fueled me to move even faster. "I am getting there now!"

My feet are slowing down but my pride is hurt, it's been like this since the first day and the two warriors who are eager to train me are always making me feel embarrassed because I always come last. I saw them sitting on the blanket that Donna laid down breakfast was ready but none of them would start until I arrived.
