Ramsay and Lilia became scared and stopped walking as they saw Philip and the 3 Marc came out of the portal and the portal closed back. Philip and the 3 Marcs stood a few paces from Ramsay and Lilia then Ramsay looked at princess Esther who was also doing nothing than just staring at the Marcs and Philip.
Philip said with a smile to Ramsay and Lilia ''it's been a while Ramsay and Lilia. It is good to see you both again''.
''You should know it is never good to see you'' said Lilia to Philip.
''That is your case, not mine. Master will like to see you both'' said Philip to Ramsay and Lilia.
''We don't have a master. I no longer want to have anything to do with Marcelos'' said Ramsay to Philip.
''I know you were gonna say that which is why I brought them with me. It is either you come with me easily or forcefully?'' said Philp to Ramsay and Lilia, then the 3 Marcs unsheathed their swords.
Ramsay said in his mind to princess Esther ''what are we going to do now?'', wanting her to hear and she did then Lilia asked Ramsay ''what are we going to do, Ramsay?''.
''Just stay calm and let me solve this'' said Ramsay to Lilia.
Princess Esther said inside Ramsay's head ''I don't know right now'', then the 3 Marcs began to walk slowly toward Ramsay and Lilia, and they also began to move backward.
''What do you mean by you don't know? You need to do something or we will be taken'' said Ramsay in his mind to princess Esther.
''Okay. Survive and don't get caught till am back'' said princess Esther inside Ramsay's head.
''What do.......'' said Ramsay in his mind, but was cut short of words as princess Esther suddenly disappeared.
Seeing princess Esther disappear, Ramsay said to Lilia ''run'', and they both picked a race followed by the Marcs then Philip smiled.
The princes, the princesses, Hemdal, and princess Esther were given a room each in the home of Nelson, and princess Esther was laid in the room given to her while the humans settle down with the shapeshifters. The humans and shapeshifters spent the day preparing for the feast. Princess Camelia was jealous and angry the whole time seeing Noah and Ryn together while the others wondered what is between Noah and Ryn that they could be close.
Ramsay and Lilia ran as fast as they could but they can not be faster than the Marcs. The Marcs later caught up with Ramsay and Lilia then Ramsay and Lilia had no choice but to drop their things and attack the Marcs even though they knew they were no match for the Marcs. Ramsay face two Marcs while Lilia faced one Marc.
Ramsay couldn't use his magic against the Marcs but he and Lilia did their best against the Marcs. Even with Ramsay's and Lilia's best they were both hit in several parts of their bodies by the Marcs and knocked to the ground. Ramsay and Lilia rolled on the ground in pain all over their bodies while the Marcs waited for them to stand up knowing they were not ready to give up then Ramsay said to himself ''where the hell are you, Esther? You better be back now or it is now or ever''.
Ramsay and Lilia stood up with their weapons to fight Marcs but as they took a step forward to attack the Marcs they suddenly heard the voice of Marcelos in their heads that said to them ''hello, my children. It is nice to see you again''.
After hearing Marcelos said that to them, Ramsay's and Lilia's heads suddenly began to ring causing so much pain. The pain of the ringing in their head was so much that Ramsay and Lilia screamed in pain wanting the ringing to stop but it didn't, and they fall to their knees still screaming. The 3 Marcs watched as Ramsay and Lilia screamed in pain as if they were waiting for something to happen to the both of them before they take action.
Lilia fainted due to the pain and ringing in her head, and Ramsay almost fainted but princess Esther suddenly appeared beside Ramsay holding Ramsay's shoulder and the ringing inside Ramsay's head stopped. As the ringing stopped, Ramsay felt relieved then he sat down on the ground and said in anger to princess Esther ''what took you so long? I nearly died''.
''Finding a way to save you is what took me so long and you weren't going to die but unconscious'' said princess Esther to Ramsay.
''Then take care of these damned things'' said Ramsay to princess Esther, and look at the 3 Marcs to see they were looking for something.
Ramsay asked ''what is wrong with them and what are they looking for?''.
''They are looking for you and Lilia right now because they can't see you both'' said princess Esther to Ramsay.
''What did you do to us?'' Ramsay asked princess Esther.
''I did nothing to you but to them. I tap into their minds with the help of the other Sa'ers of the past to create an illusion that makes it seems like you both are not here'' said princess Esther to Ramsay.
''Is that also part of your powers? It seems you have gotten stronger'' said Ramsay to princess Esther.
''Yes, but remember I said to you that the Sa'ers of the past helped me. Am not strong enough to enter the mind of a Marc not to talk of 3 Marcs'' said princess Esther to Ramsay.
''I don't think the Marcs have heart or mind. Do they?'' Ramsay asked princess Esther.
''You can sit here asking questions while the illusion wears off and you get taken back to Marcelos or you can carry Lilia and follow me'' said princess Esther to Ramsay.
Ramsay stood up and move closer to the 3 Marcs then said to them "sorry brothers but we have to part ways now", as he was about to touch one of them. Princess Esther stopped Ramsay and said to him "if you touch them the illusion will wear off".
" Oh sorry about that" said Ramsay.
"What the hell is wrong with you? I thought I said get Lilia and let us get out of here. I miss the old Ramsay" said princess Esther(annoyed).
"Okay" said Ramsay, and went to go carry Lilia on his shoulder while princess Esther get their things then a portal opened and they all went into it leaving the 3 Marcs.
Just as Ramsay and princess Esther left with Lilia, Philip arrived and asked the Marcs about the whereabouts of Lilia and Ramsay then the Marcs explained to Philip, and Philip told the Marcs that they should search the forest and that Ramsay and Lilia couldn't have gone far.
NIGHT
The feast begin and the people had merriment to make it more lively. The humans were surprised by the way the shapeshifters interacted with them. The humans were expecting anger and hatred from the shapeshifters but all they get is love from the shapeshifters which was surprising to them. The shapeshifters treated the humans like their own. The leaders of the humans and shapeshifters were happy with the fact that humans and shapeshifters were able to get along after years of grudges.
The princes, Hemdal, and the princesses sat down close to Ryn, Benjamin, Nelson, and Hawk. Princess Camelia was still angry and jealous of the way Noah and Ryn interact so she had to stand up and went to be alone but prince Mike went after her.
.
As the feast continue, prince Redrick asked Noah "sorry to interrupt, Noah, but I don't remember you introducing us to her (Ryn) or her to us. Who is she?".
"Sorry about that. Am sure you all know Benjamin except for Hemdal. Her name is Ryn and she is Benjamin's sister, and she is also Hawk's niece" said Noah to the princes, the princesses, and Hemdal.
The princes, the princesses, and Hemdal were surprised to hear that then princess Tracy said to Hawk "how come you never tell me your family is still alive?".
"Why? So you can introduce yourself as his wife or what?" said prince Kinsley to princess Tracy, while the others smiled except for Nelson.
"Hey, watch your mouth" said princess Tracy (annoyed) to prince Kinsley.
"Did I just indirectly hear that Uncle is in love with her (Tracy)" Nelson asked.
"Yeah, you heard right" said prince Redrick to Nelson, then Nelson looked at Hawk.
Seeing the way Nelson was looking at him, Hawk said to Nelson "What? Am I not allowed to love again?".
"You should know that is not the reason why am looking at you. You know the reason why" said Nelson to Hawk.
"She is not here and doesn't know am alive?" Hawk said to Nelson.
"Wait. If am to get you all right, Nelson is also part of Hawk's family" asked princess Kylie.
"Yeah. Nelson is our cousin and Hawk's nephew" said Ryn.
"Can you please explain why Nelson looked at Hawk like that after finding out that Hawk loves me and who is she that Hawk mentioned?" princess Tracy asked Ryn.
"Because of Nelson's elder sister" said Ryn.
"So there is another member of the family that I even don't know of" said Noah (surprised).
"Who is she? And what is it about her? asked Princess Kylie.
Benjamin smirked and said "she is the most fearsome of us all. And all of us hardly satisfy her wants even the family feared her. If you have heard the story of Anna from Hawk you will know she nearly kill Anna".
The princes, the princesses, and Hemdal were shocked to hear that and Hawk never told them that side of the story. Princess Kylie asked Benjamin "she nearly kill Anna?".
"Yeah, which is why Nelson was looking at Uncle because of Tracy" said Ryn.
"Because of me?" Princess Tracy asked Ryn.
"Because she fears no one or listens to anyone in the family, everyone feared her and tries not to get close to her except for uncle. Uncle didn't find it right that the family avoid and stay away from her because of her character so uncle became her friend, father, and brother. Uncle took care of her on his own and she loved uncle more than anyone, she even listen to him. Because of her, no one dares talk to uncle anyhow or offend him. We all thought uncle must be a special person if he could get her to open her heart and mind to him but we were wrong. It turns out the reason why she listens to uncle, fears him, and opens her heart and mind to uncle is she is in love with uncle. Once the family found out, we tries to talk to her that it is not right for her to be in love with uncle because they are family but she said no and that no one will tell or teach her how to live her life. And no one can stop her from loving uncle. That was how uncle met himself in a mess" said Nelson.
"Because of her no lady or girls could get close to uncle again and uncle remain single till he met Anna. Uncle had to hide Anna from her but she later found out about Anna and where uncle hid Anna. She went there and almost kill Anna even though Anna was powerful before uncle stopped her and had to lie to her that Anna was just a person my father told him to watch over which she believe and Anna lived. Uncle reported her to the whole family but no one could do anything and blamed uncle for getting close to her" said Benjamin.
The princes, the princesses, and Hemdal were anxious to hear that especially princess Tracy. Prince Redrick said "Wow. So what you meant to say is, she must not know about Tracy and Hawk or else Tracy is as good as dead".
" Kind of like that" said Ryn.
"We can't let her do that" said Hemdal.
"None of you is strong enough to stop her" said Ryn.
"Is she that powerful?" asked prince Kinsley.
"Why do you think the family feared her" Do you think it is just because of her character? She has the same power as that of the first shapeshifter according to history. We even had to hide her from Marcelos so Marcelos won't turn her against us because she will be impossible to stop or kill. There is no animal or creatures she can't shape into and she can split herself into four in different shapes" said Benjamin.
"Wow. She has a nice power" said Noah.
"Where is she now?" asked princess Tracy.
"When we all thought Hawk has died she left not to be seen again but she sends messages from time to time to check up on us even though we know she doesn't care much" said Nelson.
"Does she now knows Hawk is alive?" asked Noah.
"No, she doesn't. Uncle said not to let her know but we have a problem which we failed to tell uncle" said Ryn.
"What problem is that?" asked Hemdal.
"She thought the humans killed uncle and the whole shapeshifters had to beg her not to attack the humans before she left but she hates humans. And now, we receive a message from her yesterday that she will be arriving tomorrow" said Benjamin.
Hawk, the princes, the princesses, and Hemdal we're shocked and scared to hear that knowing according to what they heard about her they are in big problem.
Princess Camelia sat down somewhere alone in the compound of the house away from the feast before she was joined by prince Mike who sat down next to her. Prince Mike asked princess Camelia "how are you feeling?".
"Am fine. Why did you leave the feast" asked princess Camelia.
"The same reason you did. I know you are not fine which was why you left the feast" said prince Mike.
"And what do you think is wrong with me?" asked princess Camelia.
"I notice the way you look at Ryn and Noah. It is no news that you are in love with Noah but I don't think he loves you back. Judging by the way he and Ryn interact, I think they might be something between them" said prince Mike.
"And what makes you think there is something between them, they might just be close friends" said princess Camelia.
"That is what you wanted to believe because you love him" said prince Mike.
"Should I stop loving him then all because of Ryn?" said princess Camelia.
"Am not saying that. Noah is a great guy and he is worth loving but you need to love someone that can love you back not him that can't love you the way you want him to" said prince Mike.
"You mean I should love someone like you" said princess Camelia.
Prince Mike smiled and said with a smile "don't get me wrong. Am not saying that?".
"Am not. I know that you are in love with me" said princess Camelia.
Prince Mike was shocked to hear that then princess Camelia said to him "you are a nice and great guy too, Mike. And I wish my heart could love you but she only means to love Noah. My heart fell for Noah the first day I set my eyes on him and I don't think I can stop loving him for now which is why am gonna put up a fight with Ryn because I must make Noah mine. It is not like you are not someone I can't love, it is just ...... I hope you understand. But this doesn't change our friendship and as a friend, will you help me with Noah?".
"Yeah sure" said prince Mike.
"Thank you" said princess Camelia.
"Can I stay here with you for a while?" asked prince Mike.
"Yes, you can" said princess Camelia with a smile.
