After the portal closed, Abril couldn’t help but ask Kiara, “Why did you decide to come with us?”

“There is something I need to do here, and it’s very difficult for me to leave Arkala since my mother watches me all the time. That’s why I asked to come with you. Besides, I also possess light magic;

I can be of help.”

“I owe you one; you took care of my daughter, so feel at home.”

“Thank you very much, but I don’t plan to stay long. As I mentioned before, I came because there’s something I need to do.”

“I’ll ask for a room to be prepared for you. If you need anything, don’t hesitate to ask,” Alessandro

told her.

“Thank you very much.”

“I’ll go announce that we’ve returned and also request dinner to be prepared. I’ll be right back,” Alessandro said to Abril, giving her a kiss before leaving the room. Once alone, Kiara spoke.

“You have a beautiful family. I’m glad to see you’ve been able to return and that you made my

mother change her mind.”

“I don’t think it was me who changed her mind, but rather my mother.”

“Perhaps you’re right. My mother always felt guilty for banishing Aunt Sophia. I think she’s trying to make amends with you. Please don’t hate her for what she did.“,

Although Abril was still upset about how her daughter had been taken, she had to admit that it was thanks to the Elven Queen that her daughter was still alive.

“I don’t hate her, but I can’t deny that I’m still upset about what she did and the hard time she put

me through.”

“I understand, that’s not something easy to forget. You must have been desperate when you lost your daughter.”

“Yes, like never before. There’s nothing worse than losing a child.”

Lissana was playing with the necklaces Abril wore. She seemed fine, which eased the heavy burden on Abril’s shoulders a bit.

“Your daughter has a lot of power, too much, I would say. A six–year–old, which is the age when magic awakens, can be taught how to control their magic and use it correctly. But you can’t do that with a baby, so be careful.”

“I know, that’s why I’ve been containing her magic.”

“That’s not advisable. If she doesn’t release her power, it will be even worse, and she could…”

“I know, she could die. That’s why I thought about stopping, but as you said, when she uses her power uncontrollably, I end up using my magic out of fear that she’ll hurt herself.”

“And that’s why you should think carefully about what you’ll do with her. You must consider her

well–being.”

Alessandro returned to the room, but he wasn’t alone; Cassian was with him.

“Aby, Lissana, thank goodness you’re safe and back home,” Cassian said. Seeing another person in the room, a beautiful blonde girl with golden eyes, he couldn’t help but ask with some confusion,

“Who is she?”

“She is Kiara,” Abril replied, without clarifying Cassian’s question. But then, Kiara introduced herself.

“I am Kiara Babette, Elven Princess of the Arkala Kingdom, Abril’s cousin.”

“What is the Elven Princess doing here?” Cassian asked, even more perplexed than before. To which Kiara responded, “I have something to do in the human kingdom. Who are you to ask what

I’m doing here?”

“My name is Cassian, I’m Alessandro’s brother.”

“So, you’re also a guardian!”

“What? I’m a prince, not a guard.”

“I said guardian, not guard. I suppose your brother has many things to explain to you.”

“What is she talking about, Alessandro?”

“I’ll explain it to you later. The only thing you need to know now is that she is our guest, so take care of her and help her with whatever she needs.”

“Right now, I just want my room. Can you take me there?” Kiara asked.

“There is a servant outside; she will guide you to your room,” Alessandro said.

Kiara headed to the door and said before leaving, “Thank you very much.”

Once alone, Cassian asked, “Why did you bring her with you?”

“Because she asked us to. She helped us a lot while we were in the Elven Kingdom, so we couldn’t

refuse.”

Alessandro placed his hand on his brother’s tense and rigid shoulder and said, “I’ll tell you
