I couldn't stop re-reading it over and over again.

Tell Ivan to bring you to my spot.
E.

Oh no, not again. What does he want this time? I thought he said I should mind my own business. Now, he's inviting me to his spot?

It's like he's two different person in one body. I sighed. Grabbing my phone, I walked out. I met Ivan right outside the door, the one in front of the palace's main door. He was leaning against the car, already waiting.

Did he know about all of this?

"Where to, your highness? "He asked, getting the door for me.

"Uh, Elijah's spot? "

His eyes widened a little, then he pulled his lips in a tight line to stiffen a chuckle.

"Of course." He gestured for me to go in. I smiled at him, before slowly getting into the car.

He ran quickly into the drivers seat. He started the car.

"Uh, Ivan, do you know anything about what Elijah's planning?" I asked as we drove off.

" Oh, no. I'm sorry, your highness. I'm afraid I don't." He replied.

Okay. I'll just have to see for myself. I should start recalling my karate lessons...

We stopped at a forest

We stopped at a forest. A forest. He brought me to a forest. I knew it! I freaking knew it! Elijah wants to kill me!

"Ivan, please. Just take me back, Please. "

"Your highness, we're not even there yet. Come. "
He chuckles.

He must think I'm a fool. "You want me? To follow you? Deeper into the woods?... Alone? "

I laughed. Hysterically.

"No way! " I screamed and turned around, ready to sprint for my life.

"And do you really think running away, alone, would be a better idea? "

I stopped.

I slowly turned around.

"I promise nothing would go wrong, your highness." He sent me a reassuring smile.

I chewed on my inner cheek. "Okay,"

If I don't make it out alive, avenge me.

We starting walking. All trees and grass. We kept on walking, and I took in every single detail. You know, just in case.

My God, how much further? I've never walked this much. I groaned and stopped when my legs couldn't go and further.

"Are we there yet? We've been walking for years now." I whined.
