Forgotten Wife, Blood Ties.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril was rocking her baby when one of the maids entered.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Your Majesty, I have a letter for you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril, upon seeing the seal on the letter, placed her daughter in the crib, took the letter, and read it\u00a0<\/p>\n
immediately.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The letter was short; it only said:\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCome to the kingdom of Laios and fulfill your promise.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Enzo Venobich\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril had promised her brother that she would go to the kingdom of Laios to close the rift that connected to Hades, but since she was pregnant and couldn\u2019t use her power, she had postponed it. Lissana, her daughter, had just turned six months old, and although it pained her to part from her, she had to go to the kingdom of Laios.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The maid, seeing the queen\u2019s worried face, asked,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYour Majesty, is there something troubling you?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril shook her head and replied in a low voice so as not to wake the baby,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s nothing, don\u2019t worry. I need to go out, I\u2019m entrusting Lissa to you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t worry, I\u2019ll take good care of the princess.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril went to Alessandro\u2019s office, the two guards stationed at the door bowed and greeted her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBlessings to the kingdom\u2019s moon.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril found those greetings somewhat exaggerated, but since Alessandro had declared before everyone that they were a perfect match, everyone had started calling them the sun and the moon of the kingdom.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril opened the door, and Alessandro, upon seeing her, got up from his seat and went to meet her, embraced her, kissed her softly on the lips, and said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat a surprise you\u2019ve given me. I wasn\u2019t expecting to see you until dinner. Where is Lissana?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cShe\u2019s sleeping.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Alessandro held her by the waist and, with a seductive voice, said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen we should take advantage of being alone to enjoy each other\u2019s company.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril was tempted for a moment, but then remembered why she had come and said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
Partit forgotten Wite, Blood Tien\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI have something important to tell you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat\u2019s going on?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI must go to the kingdom of Laios.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat? Why do you have to go to that place?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI promised my brother that I would come to help him close the rift leading to Hades, you remember? I\u2019ve been postponing my trip, but I can\u2019t keep doing so.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen I\u2019ll go with you. I don\u2019t intend to let you go to that place alone.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, Lissana is still very small. I wouldn\u2019t be at ease if we both went.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBut I don\u2019t want you going alone.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI didn\u2019t say I would go alone. Don\u2019t worry, I\u2019ll be fine. I\u2019ll have Sirius come with me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Alessandro knew Sirius was a great wizard, and Abril was just as powerful, but he was still\u00a0<\/p>\n
nervous.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright, but take a few knights with you too.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abril shook her head.\u00a0<\/p>\n
+25 Point\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, I want my visit to the Kingdom of Laios to remain a secret. Taking too many guards would make that impossible.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI understand.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBut I can\u2019t let you go with just Sirius. I\u2019ll ask Cassian to come and accompany you; otherwise, I\u00a0<\/p>\n
won\u2019t be at ease.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat sounds good, and could you ask Sirius to come? I\u2019d like to talk to him and ask him to come\u00a0<\/p>\n
along.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou know I can make him go, right?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYeah, but I\u2019d rather he went willingly.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf that\u2019s what you want, I won\u2019t stand in the way.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThanks.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
That afternoon, Alessandro sent a message to the wizard\u2019s tower asking for Sirius to come and sent a letter to Cassian asking him to come to the palace. He didn\u2019t specify the reason in his letters, as it was a delicate matter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sirius arrived early the next morning. He was on his way to Alessandro\u2019s office when he bumped into Abril in the hallway.\u00a0<\/p>\n
