Princess Lyn: Fleeting Dreams 416 Serious

Despite what it looked like Rhys felt guilty whenever he thought of s.n.a.t.c.hing Lyn away from Kazuya. Such a thought only crossed his mind briefly though. Rhys knew he would not succeeded in getting Lyn. He can seduce her all he wants, and go on small dates with her. However, the one Lyn loves is Kazuya and Kazuya alone.

Rhys thoughts broke off when Lyn caressed his cheeks. "I understand what your thinking Rhys. But, right now just focus on me, focus on this moment. It's strange, but I feel like something bad will happen soon. I want to make some more memories with you before that happens," Lyn's tender tone and expression alongside her warm hands made Rhys feel lighter. The heavy weight he felt seemed to vanish.

"You really wanted to go on a date with me huh?"

"Take it as you wish," she muttered.

He wrapped his arms around her and hugged her tightly. "Yeah, I will."

Lyn laughed, "Will you let me go?"

"No," Rhys shook his head. "Let me stay with you like this for awhile longer."

Kazuya, he is very sorry. But he really likes Lyn, Rhys knew he wouldn't be able to let Lyn go anymore. After today, he will seriously try to s.n.a.t.c.h her away - even if it means hurting his friend.

Meanwhile at the Toga household

"Hibiki-sama would see you now."

Allen nod as he allowed the servant to lead the way. The third Prince as much as possible wanted to avoid speaking with Toga Hibiki - especially of the events of last year. However from the looks of it he can't avoid it, especially with Lyn's relations.h.i.+p with them all.

If that's the case then Lyn's power…it's a issue for concern, which is why he has to make sure. By the time they reached the door however, he noted that a certain purple hair girl was leaving.

Allen immediately recognized the woman. Isn't this, 'Princess J?' What's the Snow Kingdom sheltered Princess doing in a place like this?

It appeared as though their conversation was still in progress as she left through the door.

"Hibiki, you better keep your promise this time! We won't be tossed around and used like before."

"Of course. There is no reason for me to lie anymore. She already got rid of that."

The young girl hesitated but nodded. "….then I'll leave it up to you."

Allen watches as Princess J brush right past him. But as the girl did so, he couldn't help but sense a familiar aura. Huh? Is that girl, also a Queen candidate? The third prince glanced at the girls retreating figure, he wonders…if that's true. The Snow Kingdom's current King is a young boy. 'Will he get replaced?' Allen wondered. For the longest time he could see it, those who would become the countries future rulers. It was a strange ability, like seeing the future. But even then, he cannot use this ability freely.

The Snow Kingdom's power is unstable. If this Princess grows up more than, 'Within a year or so she may get the throne.' It's just a speculation, but he's never wrong. Allen entered the room and Hibiki immediately greeted him.

"Ah, you came, welcome."

He supposed he would have to inquire about that matter another time. Allen turned his attention to the grey hair elite wearing an outfit composed of a black s.h.i.+rt lined in crimson with a pair of white short pants, worn beneath a blue jacket lined in gold and black. A few white feathers are sewn to the corner side, while in the center is a gold fancy ornament shaped like a heart on top of a bow on a stick. His outfits are as extravagant as ever. But Allen supposed it cannot be helped, he is a designer and although he dresses in a manner benefiting the elites. Allen can't help but think the man goes overboard.

Is there a need to wear such fancy clothes?

Toga Hibiki sat down on the couch and Allen did the same, "Though, you appear to be curious about the exchange just now. You'll have to inquire about that another time."

He really does dislike how this guy can figure things out that quickly, though to a degree it's expected as a member of the fellow elite. Their insights on most matters are sharper then most peoples. Toga's really is extreme, he had thought so before. But, recently Allen is starting to suspect a lot of things about them.

"Let's get to business…"

"Very well," Hibiki extends his hands out and several screens showed up, various data gathered. "It's about the Second Princess. Exactly like you told me, it appears as though her sister has been making moves against her. It isn't just making a move like I told you previously. The First Princess actions - if we look at it, she is trying to destroy the Second Princess reputation. Once she has lost everything, she will kill her."

His gaze darkened. So Rhys hunch was on the market after all. For awhile he too had suspect Princess Lethia but he really didn't have any concrete evidence against her. What's more, he couldn't send his own guards after the girl since it would become a political matter if they were found. As much as it pained him to as for a.s.sistance, he went ahead and asked for it.

Allen knew full well that person would more or less be on the same wave length as her, "I see," he muttered. Allen didn't want to lose his calm here, but he struggled to remain calm.

"It's hardly at a issue where you have to be concerned just yet, since her movements are rather clumsy. I had heard rumours about the first Princess being a perfect model of what a Princess is. But, that ' Perfection' seems to be best suited to the middle ages. What people, what the people want now are rulers with a strong will and those with knowledge about the country. Not those ignorant ones. Which is why, everyone is paying attention to her now. Last year they did not see the need to give her any attention, since they saw how powerful the First Prince is. "Hibiki explained.

Ah

"However it's different now. Because they have seen how incapable the first Princess is. They have properly turned their attention towards Lyn, as the second Princess and found her to be more capable then even the first Prince. It's just a matter of time, before she ends up in a th.o.r.n.y path. Despite us not being the first born we ended up becoming the leaders in our family. Do you know why?"

Allen didn't say a word, but he listened.

"It's because we posses the knowledge and superiority above all others. I believe I said this last year too, ' Your fate is something you cannot escape even if you try to run for it. It will always continue haunting you and so would it not be best if you face it?' I don't believe that Lyn will run away especially with her nature. However, it appears as though her sister thinks so otherwise."
