Hendrina pushed his arm off her shoulders with an emotionless expression. ''Do you wish to end up like Lord William?'' She asked, brushing at her bangs. ''I suggest you stop.'' Ares swallowed the lump in his throat, and kept his distance from the princess. Smiling, Hendrina walked near Zack, laughter streaming from her lips. ''Zack,'' She hummed ''would you like for us to go into the garden and eat some watermelons!'' Hendrina said clasping her hands together. ''It'll be fun!'' Ares looked at the prince with eyes full of anger and jealousy, his fist clenched as he hoped the humans will clear the Earth from all Elves.

Zack's expression changed to cheerful one as he grinned."Yes!"He said eagerly as his eyes sparkled while looking at her.

''Well, I can't wait.'' Hendrina said as she descended down the stairs. Ares glowered at the two royals, his hands stuffed into his pockets. ''So, basically this is your second date? After the stunt in the bakery and now this,'' He said his voice cold. ''You're never like this Princess,'' Ares mumbled underneath his breath ''and I don't like it.'' Ares found his way in front of the two abd walked down the stairs quickly. Soon the two got off the floor the stairs went. The hall was as glamorous as the others hallways but, soon reaching down the end of the hallway was a metal door. It was locked tight as screams and chatter was muffled behind the door. The door had a locked on it, as the princess took off her heel, to pick up a key that was hidden within. Once unlocking the door, a shiver ran down her spine. ''What are you afraid of? You've been down here, more than once.'' Ares said opening the door. He began going down the eerie staircase. With his back turned, Hendrina kissed Zack's cheek with a swift movement. She smiled, and began walking down the stairs.

Zack smiled and followed after her.

Going down the steps the screams became more clear, pleads for help calling out to the humans for their aid. She spotted the cells and with her arrival silence fell, the air thick and eerie. Hendrina stood in front of the cells, as the witches glowered. ''Stand,'' She said and with that, the traitors stood. Her eyes glancing around the cell there she spotted, his hair tousled and a mess was Elliott. Back stiff, Hendrina felt her heart sink. Swallowing a lump in her throat she announced for them to state their name and title.
This went around, as they were all spies, including Elliott. ''Elliott,'' Her voice like venom and her eyes cold as ice. The poor boy stood still at his name. ''I want him out of the cell and down into the interrogation room,'' Hendrina said, with that, the guard opened the cell door and there he stood. With shame, he rubbed at the blood that remained across his arms from the whippings he had received. The handcuffs were tight around his feet and wrists. With his eyes, he pleaded for mercy. -
Zack frowned as he watched Elliot and then at his arms.He then looked away.
-
''What a pest,'' Ares scuffed as the two traveled down the hall. ''And to think the Queen trusted a street rat,'' He huffed and puffed, as he pushed Elliott's arms. ''Shut up!'' Eliott said, his voice cracking. The prisoner dug his feet into the cold metal floor, glowering at his feet with self-hatred. They approached was a wooden door with a silver doorknob. Shivers ran down Elliott's spine as Ares opened the door. Inside the room was a table, against the wall were various torture devices and in the corner of the room, against the brick wall was a bucket full of water. In the middle of the room was a table with four chairs, and a candlestick in the middle. Elliott sat in a chair, far from where the princess sat. Her eyes remained on her hands, her symbols appeared in front of her hands flickering like a light.

Zack looked at Hendrina in concern but stayed silent.

Ares leaned against the table in his seat, his eyes into a glare as he frowned upon Eliott. ''What do you have to say for yourself?'' He asked, kicking himself back, almost dangling. ''Nothing, sir,'' Elliott hesitated to say, his words coming out harshly. Hendrina flicked at the table with her fingernail, her irises directed to the wood. ''What did they tell you?'' She asked. ''Your assignments? What were they?'' Hendrina leaned over at Elliott, his face reddened and back stiff. ''I ain't telling you anything!'' He shouted with such force and it angered the witches.
''You're a traitor,'' Ares said, grabbing his chains.
''A liar and the Martin family trusted you!'' Hendrina stated her hands into a fist.
Hendrina's and Elliott's relationship was the least intimate, more leaning to the friendly gestures of possible feelings. Hendrina allowed this man into the castle out for the sake of a potential partner. Her trust was broken and for sure she should've suspected it from an underground lord but, it never crossed her mind. Hendrina could feel the fear and anger bubble inside her she didn't know what to do. ''May you please allow me to speak?'' Elliott croaked as Ares tossed the boy to the hard ground. ''No, of course not,'' Ares laughed. ''You deserve death.'' He scuffed, kicking at the boy. ''Speak! Tell us what you came here for!'' Ares said, attacking Elliott. -
"That's enough,Ares.You'll most likely kill him before we even get a word out of him."Zack said as he leaned against a wall,his arms folded across his chest while having a stoic expression on his face.
-
''And what do you think the best option is, huh? We drive fear into our enemies!'' Ares yelled anger clear on his expression. ''I-I'll tell, I'll tell just stop,'' Elliott muffled and Ares gave him one harsh kick to the stomach. Hendrina sat in her seat, smoothing her muscles. Ares picked up Elliott and brought him to sit on his knees. In a bowing position, Elliott spilled his secrets.
''It started the day I joined the harem,'' Elliott said, his back stiff and with the princess flinching at his words. ''I was told to become apart of this rebellion and I joined. I want to keep my reasoning to myself but, they told me to get close not close enough to be suspicious. They wanted to know about their next queen, Hendrina, and her future husband. No civil war was to be if Hendrina married a witch,'' His eyes drifted into a glare at Zack ''but, that doesn't seem to be happening.'' He cleared his throat and got himself comfortable on the ground. ''They claimed to be in control of the Hiria Empire since the first queen,''
''Impossible,'' Hendrina said. ''The first queen was strong enough to keep the empire going until she died from illness.'' She ran her fingers through her hair and felt goosebumps run down her arms. ''They gave her the disease as so they claim, once I told them the Elven prince was here, they wanted to royal family dead and they wished for a new generation to arise. One without having Princess Hendrina become Queen.'' Elliott said, his throat tight and a mess. ''I do apologize, Princess,'' He cried, ''Just don't kill me, it's all they told me!'' Elliott yelled with his hopes high. ''Traitors are not easily forgiven but, I'm sure your reasoning is for good,'' Hendrina muffled, her gaze drifting to Zack. ''I'll see what I can do, Ares can you get the next inmate please?'' With that silence fell, the door closed shut as Hendrina sat in her seat, rubbing her temples. -
Zack lowered his gaze to the floor as his eyes darkened.He then ran a hand through his hair and sighed.

''H-How do you feel about this? I'm so very sorry you have to be here for this,'' Hendrina muffled. She took a stand and approached him, her lips curving into a smile. It was bitter and cold, that smile was practically made of plastic. Hendrina allowed her hands to rest on his shoulders. ''You never went through this kind of thing before, I'm assuming,'' She whispered ''All that information and all of this is stressful,'' Hendrina placed her head just to rest at the side of his neck. Her breathing slow as her cool forehead came in contact with his neck.
-
"It's okay"Zack said softly as he gently hugged her,humming softly."It is quite stressful and tense..."He mumbled,raising a hand to gently stroke her cheek with his thumb.
-
''It'll be over before we know it, we'll just talk to this one more inmate and have my mother do the rest. Then,'' Hendrina whispered with a smile on her lips. ''We can go to the garden and eat watermelons.'' She said a soft giggle escaping her lips from remembering how much Zack loves watermelons.
