Honey : The Empire's Treasure 211 The Highs And Lows...

Steward Elaith stood in front of Lady Jaelah's courtyard since early this morning waiting for his lord's orders. And now having received them, he sent the fifty or so guards and stewards standing behind him into the home.

"Clean out everything of Lady Jaelah's and her daughters! Anything that is of the Amara clan stays here! If you're not sure, ask me! Understood!?"

"Yes, sir!" The group of guards and steward stomped their way into the courtyard and began pulling and stuffing all of Jaelah's, Kamryn's and Lula's things into cargo boxes.

They didn't care to handle things carefully or pack them away securely, whatever could fit in a cargo box was put in until stuffed then they moved on to the next one.

Things belonging to the Amara clan were securely placed in a carrier to be moved to a different location.

Eliath made sure to check and double the list Lord Mano give to him of the things that were given or Lady Jaelah had taken over the years from the clan that he wants back.

Majority of the things were in Lady Jaelah's bedroom out in the open, but others they had to search for.

With all the noise coming from the courtyard, one would think that Lady Jaelah would have run over here screaming for them to stop.

Unfortunately, for her and her daughters, they were too busy mingling and enjoying their moment of fame to know that they are about to be homeless.

By the time, all the stewards and guards were done with the packing, the wedding was still going strong.

Wine flowed, and food was consumed. The guests indulged in Lady Jaelah's feast and drinks while Kamryn sat swelling on the envy and adoration of the other young misses.

Often at times, she would throw a loving look Thallan's way, but he paid her no mind. Instead, he was busy throwing secret glances at Lula. Kamryn didn't notice anything as she never thought of her sister as her rival in anything.

However, one person happens to take note of newly husband's disinterest.

Lady Jaelah was sitting with the other madams when she looked over at the married couple. Seeing her daughter happy and the envy of peers, made her all the more excited with their future.

Turning her attention to Prince Thallan, who made all their dreams come true, she discern that something was odd with his sights.

They weren't on Kamryn.

Though Kamryn tried to engage Thallan in conversation, time and again, it bought no results. He would either ignore the words coming out of her mouth as if he never heard her or brush her off with a quick remark and say no more.

As Jaelah watched them more and more, she felt an unease start to settle in the pit of her stomach.

What is wrong with Prince Thallan? Didn't he ask for Kamryn's hand in marriage personally...

Lady Jaelah naively thought he was in love with Kamryn. After all, he was the one who sought marriage with her daughter, not the other way around. Besides, rumors were already going around about Kamryn and Prince Ailwin, why else would Prince Thallan want to marry his brother's fiancee?

Feeling like she was missing something, Jaelah excused herself from the group of madams and walked over to her daughter.

Pulling Kamryn away from the other young misses, Jaelah bought her into the tattoo room used by Prince Thallan.

"Mom, what are you doing?" Kamryn was just about to tell Thallan an intriguing story when her mother pulled her away.

She hasn't been able to talk with him much; she doesn't know if it's because he is shy or tired from the wedding, but it was getting frustrating. Some of her "friends" were starting to notice his lack of interest in her.

"...Has Prince Thallan showed any affection towards you?" Jaelah stared at her daughter, praying that Kamryn will tell her that she was wrong in her a.s.sumption.

Kamryn froze from rearranging her dress, to stare at her mother.

Why is mother asking me this?... Are what the young ladies saying out there true? Does he not want me...

Looking by Kamryn's facial expressions and her silent, Jaelah's unease seems to have some truth to it.

"Kamryn, listen to me." Grabbing her daughter's arms, Lady Jaelah turned Kamryn to face her.

"When you leave here with Prince Thallan tonight, make sure you end up with his child..."

"Mom...?"

"Kamryn, even if you don't have his love, you will have his children...understand?"

"...but he asked for this marriage personally..." Kamryn didn't want to believe that her husband wouldn't love her, especially not the future King of Kaia.

If she didn't have his affections, then where does that leave her future...? She'll end up just like her mother!

Shaking her head, Kamryn pulled away from her mother's hands, refusing to believe that Prince Thallan doesn't love her.

"Mom, you wrong! Thallan sought me out! Wanted to marry me! Out of all the young ladies out there, he chose me! If he didn't love me, why would he do that!?"

Jaelah agreed. Why would Prince Thallan choose Kamryn?

"Mom, you are a.s.suming too much... I am a married woman now, I will be the one to make sure that my husband stays in the palm of my hands. Don't worry, and just trust me." With that, Kamryn left the room.

Lady Jaelah watched as her daughter proudly walked out with her back straight and head held high.

That's right, Kamryn has never disappointed me. Even if she doesn't have Prince Thallan's affections now, she is smart, beautiful and the first daughter of the Amara clan. She can gain his love later...

Stressed out from planning and worrying about the wedding and Prince Thallan. Jaelah decides to use this time to take a quick rest.

Gathering her skirts, she sat down on the table and rested her aching feet.

Taking a deep breath in and a deep breath out, she was finally able to calm her nerves.

Feeling like she spent enough time in the room, she made to leave when something on the floor caught her eye.

It was a piece of fabric.

Picking it up, Jaelah thought it look familiar, but couldn't place where she seen it from.

Thinking it might be Prince Thallan's, since this was his room, Jaelah stored it away in her pocket before leaving.
